Original patch from Bertro Simul
This is probably still not quite correct, but seems to be
the best solution so far.

This is the same patch that went into i386 just before 2.6.13
came out. I still can't build 64-bit user apps, so I tested
with program (see below) in 32-bit mode on 64-bit kernel:
Before:
$ fpsig
handler: nr = 8, si = 0x0804bc90, vuc = 0x0804bd10
handler: altstack is at 0x0804b000, ebp = 0x0804bc7c
handler: si_signo = 8, si_errno = 0, si_code = 0 [unknown]
handler: fpu cwd = 0xb40, fpu swd = 0xbaa0
handler: i387 unmasked precision exception, rounded up
After:
$ fpsig
handler: nr = 8, si = 0x0804bc90, vuc = 0x0804bd10
handler: altstack is at 0x0804b000, ebp = 0x0804bc7c
handler: si_signo = 8, si_errno = 0, si_code = 6 [inexact result]
handler: fpu cwd = 0xb40, fpu swd = 0xbaa0
handler: i387 unmasked precision exception, rounded up

Being the foundation for reliable stack unwinding, this fixes CFI unwind
annotations in many low-level x86_64 routines, plus a config option
(available to all architectures, and also present in the previously sent
patch adding such annotations to i386 code) to enable them separatly
rather than only along with adding full debug information.

As noted by matz@suse.de
The problem is, that on i386 the syscallN
macro is defined like so:
long __res; \
__asm__ volatile ("int $0x80" \
: "=a" (__res) \
: "0" (__NR_##name),"b" ((long)(arg1)),"c" ((long)(arg2)), \
"d" ((long)(arg3)),"S" ((long)(arg4)),"D" ((long)(arg5))); \
If one of the arguments (in the _llseek syscall it's the arg4) is a pointer
which the syscall is expected to write to (to the memory pointed to by this
ptr), then this side-effect is not captured in the asm.
If anyone uses this macro to define it's own version of the syscall
(sometimes necessary when not using glibc) and it's inlined, then GCC
doesn't know that this asm write to "*dest", when called like so for instance:
out = 1;
llseek (fd, bla, blubb, &out, trara)
use (out);
Here nobody tells GCC that "out" actually is written to (just a pointer to it
is passed to the asm). Hence GCC might (and in the above bug did)
copy-propagate "1" into the second use of "out".
The easiest solution would be to add a "memory" clobber to the definition
of this syscall macro. As this is a syscall, it shouldn't inhibit too many
optimizations.

The generic TLB flush functions kept upto 506 pages per
CPU to avoid too frequent IPIs.
This value was done for the L1 cache of older x86 CPUs,
but with modern CPUs it does not make much sense anymore.
TLB flushing is slow enough that using the L2 cache is fine.
This patch increases the flush array on x86-64 to cache
5350 pages. That is roughly 20MB with 4K pages. It speeds
up large munmaps in multithreaded processes on SMP considerably.
The cost is roughly 42k of memory per CPU, which is reasonable.
I only increased it on x86-64 for now, but it would probably
make sense to increase it everywhere. Embedded architectures
with SMP may keep it smaller to save some memory per CPU.

Instead of using a global spinlock to protect the state
of the remote TLB flush use a lock and state for each sending CPU.
To tell the receiver where to look for the state use 8 different
call vectors. Each CPU uses a specific vector to trigger flushes on other
CPUs. Depending on the received vector the target CPUs look into
the right per cpu variable for the flush data.
When the system has more than 8 CPUs they are hashed to the 8 available
vectors. The limited global vector space forces us to this right now.
In future when interrupts are split into per CPU domains this could be
fixed, at the cost of needing more IPIs in flat mode.
Also some minor cleanup in the smp flush code and remove some outdated
debug code.
Requires patch to move cpu_possible_map setup earlier.

If we use 64bit kernel on ia64/x86_64/s390 architecture, and we run
32bit binary on 32bit compatibility mode, sendfile system call seems be
not set offset argument.
This is because sendfile's return value is not zero but the code regards
the result by return value is zero or not.
This problem will be affect to ia64/x86_64/s390 and not affect to other
architecture does not affect other architecture (mips/parisc/ppc64/sparc64).
