2d2b690164 [IA64] Optimize ticket spinlocks in fsys_rt_sigprocmask
Tony's fix (f574c84319) has a small bug,
it incorrectly uses "r3" as a scratch register in the first of the two
unlock paths ... it is also inefficient.  Optimize the fast path again.

f574c84319 [IA64] fix siglock
When ia64 converted to using ticket locks, an inline implementation
of trylock/unlock in fsys.S was missed.  This was not noticed because
in most circumstances it simply resulted in using the slow path because
the siglock was apparently not available (under old spinlock rules).

Problems occur when the ticket spinlock has value 0x0 (when first
initialised, or when it wraps around). At this point the fsys.S
code acquires the lock (changing the 0x0 to 0x1. If another process
attempts to get the lock at this point, it will change the value from
0x1 to 0x2 (using new ticket lock rules). Then the fsys.S code will
free the lock using old spinlock rules by writing 0x0 to it. From
here a variety of bad things can happen.

d7627467b7 Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:

arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().

do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.

Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

4565f0170d dma-mapping: unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations
dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment.  Architectures
defines it as ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (formally ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN).  So we
can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.

Note that some architectures implement dma_get_cache_alignment wrongly.
dma_get_cache_alignment() should return the minimum DMA alignment.  So
fully-coherent architectures should return 1.  This patch also fixes this
issue.

30da552428 PCI: MSI: Restore read_msi_msg_desc(); add get_cached_msi_msg_desc()
commit 2ca1af9aa3285c6a5f103ed31ad09f7399fc65d7 "PCI: MSI: Remove
unsafe and unnecessary hardware access" changed read_msi_msg_desc() to
return the last MSI message written instead of reading it from the
device, since it may be called while the device is in a reduced
power state.

However, the pSeries platform code really does need to read messages
from the device, since they are initially written by firmware.
Therefore:
- Restore the previous behaviour of read_msi_msg_desc()
- Add new functions get_cached_msi_msg{,_desc}() which return the
  last MSI message written
- Use the new functions where appropriate

7615856ebf timkeeping: Fix update_vsyscall to provide wall_to_monotonic offset
update_vsyscall() did not provide the wall_to_monotoinc offset,
so arch specific implementations tend to reference wall_to_monotonic

wall_to_monotonic, allowing wall_to_monotonic to be made static
as planned in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt

b71ab8c202 workqueue: increase max_active of keventd and kill current_is_keventd()
Define WQ_MAX_ACTIVE and create keventd with max_active set to half of
it which means that keventd now can process upto WQ_MAX_ACTIVE / 2 - 1
works concurrently.  Unless some combination can result in dependency
loop longer than max_active, deadlock won't happen and thus it's
unnecessary to check whether current_is_keventd() before trying to
schedule a work.  Kill current_is_keventd().

(Lockdep annotations are broken.  We need lock_map_acquire_read_norecurse())

Note: this code doesn't need this check and tasklist_lock at all, it

2c2df8418a x86, acpi/irq: Introduce apci_isa_irq_to_gsi
There are a number of cases where the current code makes the assumption
that isa irqs identity map to the first 16 acpi global system intereupts.
In most instances that assumption is correct as that is the required
behaviour in dual i8259 mode and the default behavior in ioapic mode.

However there are some systems out there that take advantage of acpis
interrupt remapping  for the isa irqs to have a completely different
mapping of isa_irq to gsi.

Introduce acpi_isa_irq_to_gsi to perform this mapping explicitly in the
code that needs it.  Initially this will be just the current assumed
identity mapping to ensure it's introduction does not cause regressions.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

d8191fa4a3 ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC
Now that the early _PDC evaluation path knows how to correctly
evaluate _PDC on only physically present processors, there's no
need for the processor driver to evaluate it later when it loads.

To cover the hotplug case, push _PDC evaluation down into the
hotplug paths.

This patch converts the ia64 architecture to use the generic
read_persistent_clock and update_persistent_clock interfaces, reducing
the amount of arch specific code we have to maintain, and allowing for
further cleanups in the future.

I have not built or tested this patch, so help from arch maintainers

52cf25d0ab Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type
Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing

8d9032bbe4 elf coredump: add extended numbering support
The current ELF dumper implementation can produce broken corefiles if
program headers exceed 65535.  This number is determined by the number of
vmas which the process have.  In particular, some extreme programs may use
more than 65535 vmas.  (If you google max_map_count, you can find some
users facing this problem.) This kind of program never be able to generate
correct coredumps.

This patch implements ``extended numbering'' that uses sh_info field of
the first section header instead of e_phnum field in order to represent
upto 4294967295 vmas.

This is supported by
AMD64-ABI(http://www.x86-64.org/documentation.html) and
Solaris(http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1984/).
Of course, we are preparing patches for gdb and binutils.

1fcccbac89 elf coredump: replace ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* macros by functions
elf_core_dump() and elf_fdpic_core_dump() use #ifdef and the corresponding
macro for hiding _multiline_ logics in functions.  This patch removes
#ifdef and replaces ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* by corresponding functions.  For
architectures not implemeonting ELF_CORE_EXTRA_*, we use weak functions in
order to reduce a range of modification.

This cleanup is for my next patches, but I think this cleanup itself is
worth doing regardless of my firnal purpose.

5beb493052 mm: change anon_vma linking to fix multi-process server scalability issue
The old anon_vma code can lead to scalability issues with heavily forking
workloads.  Specifically, each anon_vma will be shared between the parent
process and all its child processes.

In a workload with 1000 child processes and a VMA with 1000 anonymous
pages per process that get COWed, this leads to a system with a million
anonymous pages in the same anon_vma, each of which is mapped in just one
of the 1000 processes.  However, the current rmap code needs to walk them
all, leading to O(N) scanning complexity for each page.

This can result in systems where one CPU is walking the page tables of
1000 processes in page_referenced_one, while all other CPUs are stuck on
the anon_vma lock.  This leads to catastrophic failure for a benchmark
like AIM7, where the total number of processes can reach in the tens of
thousands.  Real workloads are still a factor 10 less process intensive
than AIM7, but they are catching up.

This patch changes the way anon_vmas and VMAs are linked, which allows us
to associate multiple anon_vmas with a VMA.  At fork time, each child
process gets its own anon_vmas, in which its COWed pages will be
instantiated.  The parents' anon_vma is also linked to the VMA, because
non-COWed pages could be present in any of the children.

This reduces rmap scanning complexity to O(1) for the pages of the 1000
child processes, with O(N) complexity for at most 1/N pages in the system.
 This reduces the average scanning cost in heavily forking workloads from
O(N) to 2.

The only real complexity in this patch stems from the fact that linking a
VMA to anon_vmas now involves memory allocations.  This means vma_adjust
can fail, if it needs to attach a VMA to anon_vma structures.  This in
turn means error handling needs to be added to the calling functions.

A second source of complexity is that, because there can be multiple
anon_vmas, the anon_vma linking in vma_adjust can no longer be done under
"the" anon_vma lock.  To prevent the rmap code from walking up an
incomplete VMA, this patch introduces the VM_LOCK_RMAP VMA flag.  This bit
flag uses the same slot as the NOMMU VM_MAPPED_COPY, with an ifdef in mm.h
to make sure it is impossible to compile a kernel that needs both symbolic
values for the same bitflag.

Some test results:

Without the anon_vma changes, when AIM7 hits around 9.7k users (on a test
box with 16GB RAM and not quite enough IO), the system ends up running
>99% in system time, with every CPU on the same anon_vma lock in the
pageout code.

With these changes, AIM7 hits the cross-over point around 29.7k users.
This happens with ~99% IO wait time, there never seems to be any spike in
system time.  The anon_vma lock contention appears to be resolved.
