[IA64] MCA recovery: Montecito support
The information in MCA records is filled in slightly differently on
Montecito than on Madison/McKinley. Usually, the cache check and bus
check target identifiers have the same address. On Montecito the
cache check and bus check target identifiers can be different if
a corrected error (ie SBE or unconsumed poison data) was encountered and
then an uncorrected error (ie DBE) was consumed. In that case, the
cache check target identifier is the physical address of the DBE (that
caused the MCA to surface) while the bus check target identifier is the
physical address of the SBE. This patch correctly finds the target
identifier that triggered the MCA.
If there are multiple valid cache target identifiers in the same
error record then use the one with the lowest cache level.

[PATCH] AVR32: Use __raw MMIO access for internal peripherals
The read[bwl] and write[bwl] functions are meant for accessing PCI
devices. How this is achieved on AVR32 is unknown, as there are no
systems with a PCI bridge available yet.
On-chip peripheral access, however, should not depend on how we end
up implementing PCI access, so using __raw_read[bwl]/__raw_write[bwl]
is the right thing to do for on-chip peripherals. This patch converts
the drivers for the static memory controller, interrupt controller,
PIO controller and system manager to use __raw MMIO access.

[PATCH] AVR32: add io{read,write}{8,16,32}{be,} support
A number of new drivers require io{read,write}{8,16,32}{be,} family of io
operations. These are provided for the AVR32 by this patch in the form of
a series of macros.
Access to the (memory mapped) io space through these macros is defined to
be little endian only as little endian devices (such as PCI) are the main
consumer of IO access. If high speed access is required,
io{read,write}{16,32}be macros are supplied to perform native big endian
access to this io space.
[PATCH] AVR32: Fix oversize immediates in atomic.h
When calling e.g. atomic_sub_return with a large constant, the
compiler may output an immediate that is too large for the sub
instruction in the middle of the loop.
Fix this by explicitly specifying the number of bits allowed in the
constraint. Also stop atomic_add_return() and friends from falling
back to their respective "sub" variants if the constant is too large
to fit in an immediate.
[PATCH] AVR32: Don't try to iounmap P2 segment addresses
While ioremap() will happily map a physical address through the
P2 (uncached) segment when appropriate, iounmap() doesn't know how
to handle those mappings.
This patch makes iounmap() do the right thing, i.e. nothing, for
such mappings.

[POWERPC] IPIC: Fix spinlock recursion in set_irq_handler
This causes ipic_set_irq_type to set the handler directly rather
than call set_irq_handler, which causes spinlock recursion because
the lock is already held when ipic_set_irq_type is called.
I'm also not convinced that ipic_set_irq_type should be changing the
handler at all. There seem to be several controllers that don't and
several that do. Those that do would break what appears to be a common
usage of calling set_irq_chip_and_handler followed by set_irq_type, if a

This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up.
The main issue was that the construct:
.long label (or .llong on 64 bits)
will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will
generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc,
which is not something we can deal with in the vdso.
The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like:
1:
.long label - 1b
That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of
code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry
itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've
modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest
of the kernel as well.
Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel
need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not
support 32 bits code with a statement of the form:
.llong label - 1b (Or even just .llong label)
That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use
to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific
case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are
using a modified macro that generates:
.long 0xffffffff
.llong label - 1b
Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by
the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always
before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the
other way around).

This patch adds some macros that can be used with an explicit label in
order to nest cpu features. This should be used very careful but is
necessary for the upcoming cell TB fixup.

There are currently two versions of the functions for applying the
feature fixups, one for CPU features and one for firmware features. In
addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations
for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and
separately for 32 and 64 bits.
This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are
slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from
assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any
problem.

As reported by Mark Dowd <Mark_Dowd@McAfee.com>, ip6_tables is susceptible
to a fragmentation attack causing false negatives on extension header matches.
When extension headers occur in the non-first fragment after the fragment
header (possibly with an incorrect nexthdr value in the fragment header)
a rule looking for this extension header will never match.
Drop fragments that are at offset 0 and don't contain the final protocol
header regardless of the ruleset, since this should not happen normally.
Since all extension headers are before the protocol header this makes sure
an extension header is either not present or in the first fragment, where
we can properly parse it.

[NETFILTER]: Fix ip6_tables protocol bypass bug
As reported by Mark Dowd <Mark_Dowd@McAfee.com>, ip6_tables is susceptible
to a fragmentation attack causing false negatives on protocol matches.
When the protocol header doesn't follow the fragment header immediately,
the fragment header contains the protocol number of the next extension
header. When the extension header and the protocol header are sent in
a second fragment a rule like "ip6tables .. -p udp -j DROP" will never
match.

[PATCH] x86-64: Only look at per_cpu data for online cpus.
When I generalized __assign_irq_vector I failed to pay attention
to what happens when you access a per cpu data structure for
a cpu that is not online. It is an undefined case making any
code that does it have undefined behavior as well.
The code still needs to be able to allocate a vector across cpus
that are not online to properly handle combinations like lowest
priority interrupt delivery and cpu_hotplug. Not that we can do
that today but the infrastructure shouldn't prevent it.
So this patch updates the places where we touch per cpu data
to only touch online cpus, it makes cpu vector allocation
an atomic operation with respect to cpu hotplug, and it updates
the cpu start code to properly initialize vector_irq so we
don't have inconsistencies.

There is no reason to remember a per cpu position of which vector
to try. Keeping a global position is simpler and more likely to
result in a global vector allocation even if I don't need or require
it. For level triggered interrupts this means we are less likely to
acknowledge another cpus irq, and cause the level triggered irq to
harmlessly refire.
This simplification makes it easier to only access data structures
of online cpus, by having fewer special cases to deal with.
