829035fd70 [PATCH] lockdep: irqtrace subsystem, move account_system_vtime() calls into kernel/softirq.c
At the moment, powerpc and s390 have their own versions of do_softirq which
include local_bh_disable() and __local_bh_enable() calls.  They end up
calling __do_softirq (in kernel/softirq.c) which also does
local_bh_disable/enable.

Apparently the two levels of disable/enable trigger a warning from some
validation code that Ingo is working on, and he would like to see the outer
level removed.  But to do that, we have to move the account_system_vtime
calls that are currently in the arch do_softirq() implementations for
powerpc and s390 into the generic __do_softirq() (this is a no-op for other
archs because account_system_vtime is defined to be an empty inline
function on all other archs).  This patch does that.

de30a2b355 [PATCH] lockdep: irqtrace subsystem, core
Accurate hard-IRQ-flags and softirq-flags state tracing.

This allows us to attach extra functionality to IRQ flags on/off
events (such as trace-on/off).

9c7b216d23 [PATCH] cpu hotplug: revert init patch submitted for 2.6.17
In 2.6.17, there was a problem with cpu_notifiers and XFS.  I provided a
band-aid solution to solve that problem.  In the process, i undid all the
changes you both were making to ensure that these notifiers were available
only at init time (unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined).

We deferred the real fix to 2.6.18.  Here is a set of patches that fixes the
XFS problem cleanly and makes the cpu notifiers available only at init time
(unless CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined).

If CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is defined then cpu notifiers are available at run
time.

This patch reverts the notifier_call changes made in 2.6.17

fc75cdfa5b [PATCH] cpu hotplug: fix CPU_UP_CANCEL handling
If a cpu hotplug callback fails on CPU_UP_PREPARE, all callbacks will be
called with CPU_UP_CANCELED.  A few of these callbacks assume that on
CPU_UP_PREPARE a pointer to task has been stored in a percpu array.  This
assumption is not true if CPU_UP_PREPARE fails and the following calls to
kthread_bind() in CPU_UP_CANCELED will cause an addressing exception
because of passing a NULL pointer.

83d722f7e1 [PATCH] Remove __devinit and __cpuinit from notifier_call definitions
Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __init in the definition
of notifier_call.  It is incorrect as the function definition should be
available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during
initializations).

This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_call __init
section.

649bbaa484 [PATCH] Remove __devinitdata from notifier block definitions
Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __devinitdata in the
definition of notifier_block data structure.  It is incorrect as the
data structure should be available after the initializations (they do
not unregister them during initializations).

This was leading to an oops when notifier_chain_register() call is
invoked for those callback chains after initialization.

This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_block data
structure in the init data section.

78eef01b0f [PATCH] on_each_cpu(): disable local interrupts
When on_each_cpu() runs the callback on other CPUs, it runs with local
interrupts disabled.  So we should run the function with local interrupts
disabled on this CPU, too.

And do the same for UP, so the callback is run in the same environment on both
UP and SMP.  (strictly it should do preempt_disable() too, but I think
local_irq_disable is sufficiently equivalent).

Also uninlines on_each_cpu().  softirq.c was the most appropriate file I could
find, but it doesn't seem to justify creating a new file.

Oh, and fix up that comment over (under?) x86's smp_call_function().  It
drives me nuts.

a4c4af7c8d [PATCH] cpu hoptlug: avoid usage of smp_processor_id() in preemptible code
Replace smp_processor_id() with any_online_cpu(cpu_online_map) in order to
avoid lots of "BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000001]
code:..." messages in case taking a cpu online fails.

All the traces start at the last notifier_call_chain(...) in kernel/cpu.c.
Since we hold the cpu_control semaphore it shouldn't be any problem to access
cpu_online_map.

The reason why cpu_up failed is simply that the cpu that was supposed to be
taken online wasn't even there.  That is because on s390 we never know when a
new cpu comes and therefore cpu_possible_map consists of only ones and doesn't
reflect reality.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
