e9ff3990f0 [PATCH] namespaces: utsname: switch to using uts namespaces
Replace references to system_utsname to the per-process uts namespace
where appropriate.  This includes things like uname.

Changes: Per Eric Biederman's comments, use the per-process uts namespace
	for ELF_PLATFORM, sunrpc, and parts of net/ipv4/ipconfig.c

ab516013ad [PATCH] namespaces: add nsproxy
This patch adds a nsproxy structure to the task struct.  Later patches will
move the fs namespace pointer into this structure, and introduce a new utsname
namespace into the nsproxy.

The vserver and openvz functionality, then, would be implemented in large part
by virtualizing/isolating more and more resources into namespaces, each
contained in the nsproxy.

8ef386092d [PATCH] kill wall_jiffies
With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies.
So we can kill wall_jiffies completely.

This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior
except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a
condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1".  This condition is never met so I
suppose it is just a bug.  I just remove that condition only instead of
kill the whole "if" block.

3171a0305d [PATCH] simplify update_times (avoid jiffies/jiffies_64 aliasing problem)
Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390
timer interrupt handler with this change.

Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but
callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update.  Passing ticks
get rid of this redundant calculation.  Also there are another redundancy
pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky.

This cleanup make a barrier added by
5aee405c66 needless.  So this patch removes
it.

As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now
wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies.  (This patch does not really
remove wall_jiffies.  It would be another cleanup patch)

f400e198b2 [PATCH] pidspace: is_init()
This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280).  It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().

Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.

Eric's original description:

	There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
	because we give it special properties.  Most  significantly init
	must not die.  This results in code all over the kernel test
	->pid == 1.

	Introduce is_init to capture this case.

	With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
	looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
	process that has pid == 1.

This function although doing simple thing is hard to follow. It's
mainly due to:

    - a lot of #ifdef
    - bad local names
    - redundant tests

So this patch try to address these issues. It also do not use
max_pfn global which is marked as an unused exported symbol.

b594318259 [MIPS] get_wchan(): remove uses of mfinfo[64]
This array was used to 'cache' some frame info about scheduler
functions to speed up get_wchan(). This array was 1Ko size and
was only used when CONFIG_KALLSYMS was set but declared for all
configs.

Rather than make the array statement conditional, this patches
removes this array and its uses. Indeed the common case doesn't
seem to use this array and get_wchan() is not a critical path
anyways.

It results in a smaller bss and a smaller/cleaner code:

This patch adds 2 sanity checks.

The first one test that the start address of the function to analyze has been
set by the caller. If not return an error since nothing usefull can be done
without.

The second one checks that the function's size has been set. A null size can
happen if CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set and it means that we don't know the size
of the function to analyze. In this case, we make it equal to 128 instructions
by default.

63415dbb54 [MIPS] The o32 fstatat syscall behaves differently on 32 and 64 bit kernels
While working on a glibc patch to support the fstatat() functions[1],
I noticed that the o32 implementation behaves differently on 32-bit and
64-bit kernels; the former provides a stat64 while the latter provides
a plain (o32) stat.  I think the former is what's intended, as there is
no separate fstatat64.  It's also what x86 does.

I think this is just a case of a compat too far.

846acaa2b4 [MIPS] Patch to arch/mips/mips-boards/generic/time.c
In hooking up the perf counter overflow interrupt to the experimental
deprecated-real-soon-now /proc/perf interface last night, I had to
revisit arch/mips/mips-boards/generic/time.c, and discovered that
when the 2.6.9-based SMTC prototype was merged with the more
recent tree, it was missed that arch/mips/kernel/time.c had changed
so that even in SMP kernels, timer_interrupt() calls
local_timer_interrupt(), so there is no longer a need to invoke it
directly from mips_timer_interrupt() in those cases where
timer_interrupt() has been called.  So I got rid of that, and added the
invocation of perf_irq() if Cause.PCI is set, more-or-less following the
same logic as in the non-SMTC case, with the modifications that (a) a
runtime check for Release 2 isn't done, because it's redundant in SMTC),
and (b) we check for a clock interrupt regardless of the value returned
by the perf counter service - I don't understand why we'd want to control
that with perf_irq(), but maybe one of you knows the story.  I also got
rid of the stupid warning about the unused variable when compiled for
SMTC (another artifact of the merge). The result hasn't been beaten to
death, but boots, seems stable, and supports extended precision event
counting.

32136568a9 [MIPS] Fix for pci config_access on alchemy au1x000
I've encountered a serious problem with PCI config space access on Au1x000
platforms with recent 2.6.x-kernel. With 2.4.31 the same hardware works fine.
So I was looking for the differences:

Symptoms:
- no PCI-device is seen on bootup though two or three cards are present
- lspci output is empty
- OR: lspci shows 20 times the same device
(- OR: in some slot-configurations it worked anyhow)

System(s):
1. platform with Au1500 and three PCI-devices (actually a mycable XXS1500
    with backplane for three PCI-devices)
2. platform with Au1550 and two PCI-devices (custom board)

Debugging:
I digged down to the config_access() of the au1xxx-processors in
arch/mips/pci/ops-au1000.c and switched on DEBUG.

The code of config_access() seems to be almost the same as of the
2.4.x-kernel. But the "pci_cfg_vm->addr" returned by get_vm_area(0x2000, 0)
once on booting is different. That's of course not forbidden. But the
alignment seems to be wrong. In my case, I received:

2.4.31: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0000000
2.6.18-rc5: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0101000

To make it short: With 2.6.x it fails on the first config-access with:
"PCI ERR detected: status 83a00356".

Fixup:
My fix is now, to use the VM_IOREMAP-flag in the get_vm_area call. This flag
seems to be introduced in mm/vmalloc.c a long time ago (in 2.6.7-bk13, I
found in gitweb).
Now, the returned address is pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0104000 and everything works
fine.

898d229107 [MIPS] Make prepare_frametrace() not clobber v0
Since lmo commit 323a380bf9e1a1679a774a2b053e3c1f2aa3f179 ("Simplify
dump_stack()") made prepare_frametrace() always inlined, using $2 (v0)
in __asm__ is not safe anymore.  We can use $1 (at) instead.  Also we
should use "dla" instead of "la" for 64-bit kernel.

f6502791d7 [MIPS] Do not use drop_mmu_context to flusing other task's VIPT I-cache.
c-r4k.c and c-sb1.c use drop_mmu_context() to flush virtually tagged
I-caches, but this does not work for flushing other task's icache.  This
is for example triggered by copy_to_user_page() called from ptrace(2).
Use indexed flush for such cases.

585fa72493 [MIPS] Retire flush_icache_page from mm use.
On the 34K the redundant cache operations were causing excessive stalls
resulting in realtime code running on the second VPE missing its deadline.
For all other platforms this patch is just a significant performance
improvment as illustrated by below benchmark numbers.

13fdd31abe [MIPS] Avoid double signal restarting.
In entry.S resume_userspace ... jal do_notify_resume form a loop through
which the kernel will iterate as long as work is pending.  If we
iterate through this loop more than once with no signal pending for at
least one but the last iteration we will take do the syscall restarting
multiple times resulting in a syscall return prior to the the syscall
instruction in userspace.  This may happen when debugging a multithreaded
program.
