If we move a mapping from one virtual address to another, and this changes the virtual color of the mapping to those pages, we can see corrupt data due to D-cache aliasing. Check for and deal with this by overriding the move_pte() macro. Set things up so that other platforms can cleanly override the move_pte() macro too. Signed-off-by: David S.

Uses of smp_processor_id() get pushed earlier and earlier in the start_kernel() sequence. So just get it working before we call start_kernel() to avoid all possible problems. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We don't enable the BTB on the ixp2350 as that can cause weird crashes (erratum #42.) However, some bootloaders enable the BTB, which means that we have to disable the BTB explicitly.

This reverts commit 5491d0f3. As per Andi: "After some discussion with people who have the affected system it seems best to revert for 2.6.17. It broke a common BIOS workaround and PCI-X still doesn't work. Alternative is for people to change the BIOS which seems to be better right now." Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

int_ret_from_syscall already does syscall exit tracing, so no need to do it again in the caller. This caused problems for UML and some other special programs doing syscall interception. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

From: Robert Hentosh <robert_hentosh@dell.com> Actually, we just stumbled on a different bug found in find_e820_area() in e820.c. The following code does not handle the edge condition correctly: while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size < ei->addr + ei->size) ; last = addr + size; if ( last > ei->addr + ei->size ) continue; The second statement in the while loop needs to be a <= b so that it is the logical negavite of the if (a > b) outside it. It needs to read: while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size <= ei->addr + ei->size) ; In the case that failed bad_addr was returning an address that is exactly size bellow the end of the e820 range. AK: Again together with the earlier avoid edma fix this fixes boot on a Dell PE6850/16GB Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

From: Daniel Yeisley <dan.yeisley@unisys.com> It is possible to boot a Unisys ES7000 with CPUs from multiple cells, and not also include the memory from those cells. This can create a scenario where node 0 has cpus, but no associated memory. The system will boot fine in a configuration where node 0 has memory, but nodes 2 and 3 do not. [AK: I rechecked the code and generic code seems to indeed handle that already. Dan's original patch had a change for mm/slab.c that seems to be already in now.] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

From: "Jan Beulich" <jbeulich@novell.com> The PM timer code updates vxtime.last_tsc, but this update was done incorrectly in two ways: - offset_delay being in microseconds requires multiplying with cpu_mhz rather than cpu_khz - the multiplication of offset_delay and cpu_khz (both being 32-bit values) on most current CPUs would overflow (observed value of the delay was approximately 4000us, yielding an overflow for frequencies starting a little above 1GHz) Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

From: "Jan Beulich" <jbeulich@novell.com> When using apic= on the kernel command line, this had no effect for machines matched by either the ACPI MADT or the MPS OEM table scan. However, when such option is specified, it should also take effect for this set of systems.

ia32_setup_arg_pages would ignore the passed in random stack top and use its own static value. Now it uses the 8bit of randomness native i386 would use too. This indirectly fixes mmap randomization for 32bit processes too, which depends on the stack randomization. Should also give slightly better virtual cache colouring and possibly better performance with HyperThreading.

Wasn't able to reproduce a hard hang, but was able to get an oops if suspended the machine during a copy to the cifs mount. This led to some things hanging, including a "sync". Also got I/O errors when trying to access the mount afterwards (even when didn't see the oops), and had to unmount and remount in order to access the filesystem. This patch fixed the oops.

Okay, just to sum things up. This forces libata to wait for up to 2 seconds for BUSY|DRQ to clear on resume before continuing.

Several problems occured with lcs device driver: - device not operational anymore after cable pull/plug-in. - unpredictable results occured, e.g. kernel panic using cards of type QD8F. - STOPLAN and delete multicast address command were not proper recognized by OSA card under heavy network workload. - channel/device error checks missing in interrupt handler. To fix all problems at once recovery of lcs devices has been improved. missing error checks in lcs interrupt handler has been added. Once a hardware problem occurs lcs will recover the device now properly. Signed-off-by: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

From: Frank Blaschka <Frank.Blaschka@de.ibm.com> From: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com> - fix fake_ll during initial device bringup. fake_ll was not active after first start of the device. Problem only occured when qeth was built without IPV6 support. - avoid skb usage after invocation of qeth_flush_buffers, because skb might already be freed. - remove yet another useless netif_wake_queue in qeth_softsetup_ipv6 since this function is only called when device is going online. In this case card->state will never be in state UP. So let the net_device queue down . Signed-off-by: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
