05062d96a2 [PATCH] ia64: fix floating-point preemption problem
There've been reports of problems with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y and the high
floating point partition.  This is caused by the possibility of preemption
and rescheduling on a different processor while saving or restioirng the
high partition.

The only places where the FPU state is touched are in ptrace, in
switch_to(), and where handling a floating-point exception.  In switch_to()
preemption is off.  So it's only in trap.c and ptrace.c that we need to
prevent preemption.

Here is a patch that adds commentary to make the conditions clear, and adds
appropriate preempt_{en,dis}able() calls to make it so.  In trap.c I use
preempt_enable_no_resched(), as we're about to return to user space where
the preemption flag will be checked anyway.

07eee78ea8 [PATCH] AGP fix for Xen VMM
When Linux is running on the Xen virtual machine monitor, physical
addresses are virtualised and cannot be directly referenced by the AGP
GART.  This patch fixes the GART driver for Xen by adding a layer of
abstraction between physical addresses and 'GART addresses'.

Architecture-specific functions are also defined for allocating and freeing
the GATT.  Xen requires this to ensure that table really is contiguous from
the point of view of the GART.

These extra interface functions are defined as 'no-ops' for all existing
architectures that use the GART driver.

a1ecf7f6e6 [IA64] alternate perfmon handler
Patch from Charles Spirakis

Some linux customers want to optimize their applications on the latest
hardware but are not yet willing to upgrade to the latest kernel. This
patch provides a way to plug in an alternate, basic, and GPL'ed PMU
subsystem to help with their monitoring needs or for specialty work. It
can also be used in case of serious unexpected bugs in perfmon. Mutual
exclusion between the two subsystems is guaranteed, hence no conflict
can arise from both subsystem being present.

7f261b5f0d [PATCH] move SA_xxx defines to linux/signal.h
The attached patch moves the IRQ-related SA_xxx flags (namely, SA_PROBE,
SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM and SA_SHIRQ) from all the arch-specific headers to
linux/signal.h.  This looks like a left-over after the irq-handling code
was consolidated.  The code was moved to kernel/irq/*, but the flags are
still left per-arch.

Right now, adding a new IRQ flag to the arch-specific header, like this
patch does:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/alsa/alsa-driver/utils/patches/pcsp-kernel-2.6.10-03.diff?rev=1.1
no longer works, it breaks the compilation for all other arches, unless you
add that flag to all the other arch-specific headers too.  So I think such
a clean-up makes sense.

Current ia64 linux cannot handle greater than 184 interrupt sources
because of the lack of vectors. The following patch enables ia64 linux
to handle greater than 184 interrupt sources by allowing the same

this patch is besed on "Intel(R) Itanium(R) Processor Family Interrupt
Architecture Guide".

Even if you don't have a large I/O system, you can see the behavior of
vector sharing by changing IOSAPIC_LAST_DEVICE_VECTOR to fewer value.

fde740e4dd [IA64] Percpu quicklist for combined allocator for pgd/pmd/pte.
This patch introduces using the quicklists for pgd, pmd, and pte levels
by combining the alloc and free functions into a common set of routines.
This greatly simplifies the reading of this header file.

This patch is simple but necessary for large numa configurations.
It simply ensures that only pages from the local node are added to a
cpus quicklist.  This prevents the trapping of pages on a remote nodes
quicklist by starting a process, touching a large number of pages to
fill pmd and pte entries, migrating to another node, and then unmapping
or exiting.  With those conditions, the pages get trapped and if the
machine has more than 100 nodes of the same size, the calculation of
the pgtable high water mark will be larger than any single node so page
table cache flushing will never occur.

I ran lmbench lat_proc fork and lat_proc exec on a zx1 with and without
this patch and did not notice any change.

On an sn2 machine, there was a slight improvement which is possibly
due to pages from other nodes trapped on the test node before starting
the run.  I did not investigate further.

This patch shrinks the quicklist based upon free memory on the node
instead of the high/low water marks.  I have written it to enable
preemption periodically and recalculate the amount to shrink every time
we have freed enough pages that the quicklist size should have grown.
I rescan the nodes zones each pass because other processess may be
draining node memory at the same time as we are adding.

b8d8b883e6 [IA64] cpu hotplug: return offlined cpus to SAL
This patch is required to support cpu removal for IPF systems. Existing code
just fakes the real offline by keeping it run the idle thread, and polling
for the bit to re-appear in the cpu_state to get out of the idle loop.

For the cpu-offline to work correctly, we need to pass control of this CPU 
back to SAL so it can continue in the boot-rendez mode. This gives the
SAL control to not pick this cpu as the monarch processor for global MCA
events, and addition does not wait for this cpu to checkin with SAL
for global MCA events as well. The handoff is implemented as documented in 
SAL specification section 3.2.5.1 "OS_BOOT_RENDEZ to SAL return State"

The ia64-version of fls() never worked as intended (the bitnumbering
was off by 1 and fls(0) was undefined).  This patch fixes the problem
by using a popcnt-based fls(), which on McKinley-derived cores is
slightly faster than both ia64_fls() and generic_fls().  The resulting
code, however, is bigger (7-8 bundles instead of about 3 bundles).
Also switch ia64_popcnt() to __builtin_popcountl() for GCC v3.4 or
newer since the compiler can predicate that and schedule it better.

3bf5ee9564 [PATCH] freepgt: hugetlb_free_pgd_range
ia64 and ppc64 had hugetlb_free_pgtables functions which were no longer being
called, and it wasn't obvious what to do about them.

The ppc64 case turns out to be easy: the associated tables are noted elsewhere
and freed later, safe to either skip its hugetlb areas or go through the
motions of freeing nothing.  Since ia64 does need a special case, restore to
ppc64 the special case of skipping them.

The ia64 hugetlb case has been broken since pgd_addr_end went in, though it
probably appeared to work okay if you just had one such area; in fact it's
been broken much longer if you consider a long munmap spanning from another
region into the hugetlb region.

In the ia64 hugetlb region, more virtual address bits are available than in
the other regions, yet the page tables are structured the same way: the page
at the bottom is larger.  Here we need to scale down each addr before passing
it to the standard free_pgd_range.  Was about to write a hugely_scaled_down
macro, but found htlbpage_to_page already exists for just this purpose.  Fixed
off-by-one in ia64 is_hugepage_only_range.

Uninline free_pgd_range to make it available to ia64.  Make sure the
vma-gathering loop in free_pgtables cannot join a hugepage_only_range to any
other (safe to join huges?  probably but don't bother).

ee39b37b23 [PATCH] freepgt: remove MM_VM_SIZE(mm)
There's only one usage of MM_VM_SIZE(mm) left, and it's a troublesome macro
because mm doesn't contain the (32-bit emulation?) info needed.  But it too is
only needed because we ignore the end from the vma list.

We could make flush_pgtables return that end, or unmap_vmas.  Choose the
latter, since it's a natural fit with unmap_mapping_range_vma needing to know
its restart addr.  This does make more than minimal change, but if unmap_vmas
had returned the end before, this is how we'd have done it, rather than
storing the break_addr in zap_details.

unmap_vmas used to return count of vmas scanned, but that's just debug which
hasn't been useful in a while; and if we want the map_count 0 on exit check
back, it can easily come from the final remove_vm_struct loop.

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!
