KVM: pre-allocate one more dirty bitmap to avoid vmalloc()
Currently x86's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() needs to allocate a bitmap by
vmalloc() which will be used in the next logging and this has been causing
bad effect to VGA and live-migration: vmalloc() consumes extra systime,
triggers tlb flush, etc.
This patch resolves this issue by pre-allocating one more bitmap and switching
between two bitmaps during dirty logging.
Performance improvement:
I measured performance for the case of VGA update by trace-cmd.
The result was 1.5 times faster than the original one.
In the case of live migration, the improvement ratio depends on the workload
and the guest memory size. In general, the larger the memory size is the more
benefits we get.
Note:
This does not change other architectures's logic but the allocation size
becomes twice. This will increase the actual memory consumption only when
the new size changes the number of pages allocated by vmalloc().

arch/tile: handle rt_sigreturn() more cleanly
The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.
However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space. Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.
Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn. We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code. We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.

the new task before it had its TLS set up. (Of course, this race
window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value

this exactly the way all other architectures do it.)
This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will

x86: avoid E820 regions when allocating address space
When we allocate address space, e.g., to assign it to a PCI device, don't
allocate anything mentioned in the BIOS E820 memory map.
On recent machines (2008 and newer), we assign PCI resources from the
windows described by the ACPI PCI host bridge _CRS. On many Dell
machines, these windows overlap some E820 reserved areas, e.g.,
If we put devices at 0xbff00000, they don't work, probably because
that's really RAM, not I/O memory. This patch prevents that by removing
the 0xbfe4dc00-0xbfffffff area from the "available" resource.
I'm not very happy with this solution because Windows solves the problem
differently (it seems to ignore E820 reserved areas and it allocates
top-down instead of bottom-up; details at comment 45 of the bugzilla
below). That means we're vulnerable to BIOS defects that Windows would not
trip over. For example, if BIOS described a device in ACPI but didn't
mention it in E820, Windows would work fine but Linux would fail.

PCI: Update MCP55 quirk to not affect non HyperTransport variants
I wrote this quirk awhile ago to properly setup MCP55 chips on hypertransport
busses so that interrupts reached whatever cpu happend to boot the kdump kernel.
while that works well, it was recently shown to me that a a non-hypertransport
variant of the MCP55 exists, and on those system the register that this quirk
manipulates causes hangs if you write to it. Since the quirk was only meant to
handle errors found on MCP55 chips that have a HT interface, this patch adds a
filter to make sure the chip is an HT capable before making the needed register
adjustment. This lets the broken MCP55s work with kdump while not breaking the
non-HT variants.
that fixes a problem with the LD/SD macro currently implemented by GAS for
the o32 ABI in an inconsistent way. This is best illustrated with a
simple program, which I'm copying here from the message above for easier
reference:
The GAS fix makes the macro behave in a consistent way and pairs of LW/SW
instructions to be output as appropriate regardless of the size of the
offset associated with the address used. The machine instruction is still
available, but to reach it macros have to be disabled first. This has a
side effect of requiring the use of a machine-addressable memory operand.
As some platforms require 64-bit operations for accesses to some I/O
registers LD/SD instructions are used in a couple of places in Linux
regardless of the ABI selected. Here's a fix for some pieces of code
affected I've been able to track down. The fix should be backwards
compatible with all supported binutils releases in existence and can be
used as a reference for any other places or off-tree code. The use of the
"R" constraint guarantees a machine-addressable operand.

MIPS: Fix CP0 COUNTER clockevent race
Consider the following test case:
write_c0_compare(read_c0_count());
Even if the counter doesn't increment during execution, this might not
generate an interrupt until the counter wraps around. The CPU may
perform the comparison each time CP0 COUNT increments, not when CP0
COMPARE is written.
If mips_next_event() is called with a very small delta, and CP0 COUNT
increments during the calculation of "cnt += delta", it is possible
that CP0 COMPARE will be written with the current value of CP0 COUNT.
If this is detected, the function should return -ETIME, to indicate
that the interrupt might not have actually gotten scheduled.

pm_runtime_suspended() is used to decide whether or not to execute
a device's (system) ->suspend() callback. The callback is not
executed if pm_runtime_suspended() returns true, but it does so
for devices that don't even support runtime PM, because the
power.disable_depth device field is ignored by it. This leads to
problems (i.e. devices are not suspened when they should), so rework
pm_runtime_suspended() so that it returns false if the device's

PM / Hibernate: Restore old swap signature to avoid user space breakage
Commit 3624eb0 (PM / Hibernate: Modify signature used to mark swap)
attempted to modify hibernate signature used to mark swap partitions
containing hibernation images, so that old kernels don't try to
handle compressed images. However, this change broke resume from
hibernation on Fedora 14 that apparently doesn't pass the resume=
argument to the kernel and tries to trigger resume from early user
space. This doesn't work, because the signature is now different,
so the old signature has to be restored to avoid the problem.

lguest: populate initial_page_table
Two x86 patches broke lguest:
1) v2.6.35-492-g72d7c3b, which changed x86 to use the memblock allocator.
In lguest, the host places linear page tables at the top of mem, which
used to be enough to get us up to the swapper_pg_dir page tables. With
the first patch, the direct mapping tables used that memory:
Before: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 7000-1a000
After: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 3fed000-4000000
I initially fixed this by lying about the amount of memory we had, so
the kernel wouldn't blatt the lguest boot pagetables (yuk!), but then...
This was initialized in a part of head_32.S which isn't executed by
lguest; it is then copied into swapper_pg_dir. So we have to initialize
it; and anyway we switch to it before we blatt the old tables, so that
fixes the previous damage as well.
For the moment, I cut & pasted the code into lguest's boot code, but
next merge window I will merge them.

lguest: restore boot speed
lguest is dumb and drops *all* the pagetables for set_pte (which is
only used for kernel mapping manipulation, so it's OK without highmem).
But it's used a lot in boot, too. As a guest optimization, we
suppressed this flushing until the first page switch. Now we have
initial_page_table, that happens much earlier, so extend the heuristic
to wait until we switch to something other than the swapper_pg_dir or
initial_page_table.
As measured on my laptop under kvm, this dropped the time-to-mount-root

nilfs2: fix regression of garbage collection ioctl
On 2.6.37-rc1, garbage collection ioctl of nilfs was broken due to the
commit 263d90cefc7d82a0 ("nilfs2: remove own inode hash used for GC"),
and leading to filesystem corruption.
The patch doesn't queue gc-inodes for log writer if they are reused
through the vfs inode cache. Here, gc-inode is the inode which
buffers blocks to be relocated on GC. That patch queues gc-inodes in
nilfs_init_gcinode() function, but this function is not called when
they don't have I_NEW flag. Thus, some of live blocks are wrongly
overrode without being moved to new logs.
This resolves the problem by moving the gc-inode queueing to an outer
function to ensure it's done right.
