[MIPS] Patch to arch/mips/mips-boards/generic/time.c
In hooking up the perf counter overflow interrupt to the experimental
deprecated-real-soon-now /proc/perf interface last night, I had to
revisit arch/mips/mips-boards/generic/time.c, and discovered that
when the 2.6.9-based SMTC prototype was merged with the more
recent tree, it was missed that arch/mips/kernel/time.c had changed
so that even in SMP kernels, timer_interrupt() calls
local_timer_interrupt(), so there is no longer a need to invoke it
directly from mips_timer_interrupt() in those cases where
timer_interrupt() has been called. So I got rid of that, and added the
invocation of perf_irq() if Cause.PCI is set, more-or-less following the
same logic as in the non-SMTC case, with the modifications that (a) a
runtime check for Release 2 isn't done, because it's redundant in SMTC),
and (b) we check for a clock interrupt regardless of the value returned
by the perf counter service - I don't understand why we'd want to control
that with perf_irq(), but maybe one of you knows the story. I also got
rid of the stupid warning about the unused variable when compiled for
SMTC (another artifact of the merge). The result hasn't been beaten to
death, but boots, seems stable, and supports extended precision event
counting.

[MIPS] Fix for pci config_access on alchemy au1x000
I've encountered a serious problem with PCI config space access on Au1x000
platforms with recent 2.6.x-kernel. With 2.4.31 the same hardware works fine.
So I was looking for the differences:
Symptoms:
- no PCI-device is seen on bootup though two or three cards are present
- lspci output is empty
- OR: lspci shows 20 times the same device
(- OR: in some slot-configurations it worked anyhow)
System(s):
1. platform with Au1500 and three PCI-devices (actually a mycable XXS1500
with backplane for three PCI-devices)
2. platform with Au1550 and two PCI-devices (custom board)
Debugging:
I digged down to the config_access() of the au1xxx-processors in
arch/mips/pci/ops-au1000.c and switched on DEBUG.
The code of config_access() seems to be almost the same as of the
2.4.x-kernel. But the "pci_cfg_vm->addr" returned by get_vm_area(0x2000, 0)
once on booting is different. That's of course not forbidden. But the
alignment seems to be wrong. In my case, I received:
To make it short: With 2.6.x it fails on the first config-access with:
"PCI ERR detected: status 83a00356".
Fixup:
My fix is now, to use the VM_IOREMAP-flag in the get_vm_area call. This flag
seems to be introduced in mm/vmalloc.c a long time ago (in 2.6.7-bk13, I
found in gitweb).
Now, the returned address is pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0104000 and everything works
fine.

Make swsusp use memory bitmaps to store its internal information during the
resume phase of the suspend-resume cycle.
If the pfns of saveable pages are saved during the suspend phase instead of
the kernel virtual addresses of these pages, we can use them during the resume
phase directly to set the corresponding bits in a memory bitmap. Then, this
bitmap is used to mark the page frames corresponding to the pages that were
saveable before the suspend (aka "unsafe" page frames).
Next, we allocate as many page frames as needed to store the entire suspend
image and make sure that there will be some extra free "safe" page frames for
the list of PBEs constructed later. Subsequently, the image is loaded and, if
possible, the data loaded from it are written into their "original" page
frames (ie. the ones they had occupied before the suspend).
The image data that cannot be written into their "original" page frames are
loaded into "safe" page frames and their "original" kernel virtual addresses,
as well as the addresses of the "safe" pages containing their copies, are
stored in a list of PBEs. Finally, the list of PBEs is used to copy the
remaining image data into their "original" page frames (this is done
atomically, by the architecture-dependent parts of swsusp).

Introduce the memory bitmap data structure and make swsusp use in the suspend
phase.
The current swsusp's internal data structure is not very efficient from the
memory usage point of view, so it seems reasonable to replace it with a data
structure that will require less memory, such as a pair of bitmaps.
The idea is to use bitmaps that may be allocated as sets of individual pages,
so that we can avoid making allocations of order greater than 0. For this
reason the memory bitmap structure consists of several linked lists of objects
that contain pointers to memory pages with the actual bitmap data. Still, for
a typical system all of these lists fit in a single page, so it's reasonable
to introduce an additional mechanism allowing us to allocate all of them
efficiently without sacrificing the generality of the design. This is done
with the help of the chain_allocator structure and associated functions.
We need to use two memory bitmaps during the suspend phase of the
suspend-resume cycle. One of them is necessary for marking the saveable
pages, and the second is used to mark the pages in which to store the copies
of them (aka image pages).
First, the bitmaps are created and we allocate as many image pages as needed
(the corresponding bits in the second bitmap are set as soon as the pages are
allocated). Second, the bits corresponding to the saveable pages are set in
the first bitmap and the saveable pages are copied to the image pages.
Finally, the first bitmap is used to save the kernel virtual addresses of the
saveable pages and the second one is used to save the contents of the image
pages.

[PATCH] Make swsusp avoid memory holes and reserved memory regions on x86_64
On x86_64 machines with more than 2 GB of RAM there are large memory gaps
(with no corresponding kernel virtual addresses) and reserved memory
regions between areas of usable physical RAM. Moreover, if CONFIG_FLATMEM
is set, they appear within the normal zone. swsusp should not try to save
them, so the corresponding page structs have to be marked as 'nosave'.

[PATCH] swsusp: read speedup
Implement async reads for swsusp resuming.
Crufty old PIII testbox:
15.7 MB/s -> 20.3 MB/s
Sony Vaio:
14.6 MB/s -> 33.3 MB/s
I didn't implement the post-resume bio_set_pages_dirty(). I don't really
understand why resume needs to run set_page_dirty() against these pages.
It might be a worry that this code modifies PG_Uptodate, PG_Error and
PG_Locked against the image pages. Can this possibly affect the resumed-into
kernel? Hopefully not, if we're atomically restoring its mem_map?

[PATCH] mtrr: Add lock annotations for prepare_set and post_set
The functions prepare_set and post_set in kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c wrap
the spinlock set_atomicity_lock: prepare_set returns with the lock held,
and post_set releases the lock without acquiring it. Add lock annotations
to these two functions so that sparse can check callers for lock pairing,
and so that sparse will not complain about these functions since they
intentionally use locks in this manner.

[PATCH] x86: enable VMSPLIT for highmem kernels
The current VMSPLIT Kconfig option is disabled whenever highmem is on.
This is a bit screwy because the people who need to change VMSPLIT the most
tend to be the ones with highmem and constrained lowmem.
So, remove the highmem dependency. But, re-include the dependency for the
"full 1GB of lowmem" option. You can't have the full 1GB of lowmem and
highmem because of the need for the vmalloc(), kmap(), etc... areas.
I thought there would be at least a bit of tweaking to do to
get it to work, but everything seems OK.

[PATCH] Translate asm version of ELFNOTE macro into preprocessor macro
I've come across some problems with the assembly version of the ELFNOTE
macro currently in -mm. (in
x86-put-note-sections-into-a-pt_note-segment-in-vmlinux.patch)
The first is that older gas does not support :varargs in .macro
definitions (in my testing 2.17 does while 2.15 does not, I don't know
when it became supported). The Changes file says binutils >= 2.12 so I
think we need to avoid using it. There are no other uses in mainline or
-mm. Old gas appears to just ignore it so you get "too many arguments"
type errors.
Secondly it seems that passing strings as arguments to assembler macros
is broken without varargs. It looks like they get unquoted or each
character is treated as a separate argument or something and this causes
all manner of grief. I think this is because of the use of -traditional
when compiling assembly files.
Therefore I have translated the assembler macro into a pre-processor
macro.
I added the desctype as a separate argument instead of including it with
the descdata as the previous version did since -traditional means the
ELFNOTE definition after the #else needs to have the same number of
arguments (I think so anyway, the -traditional CPP semantics are pretty
fscking strange!).
With this patch I am able to define elfnotes in assembly like this with
both old and new assemblers.
[PATCH] x86: put .note.* sections into a PT_NOTE segment in vmlinux
This patch will pack any .note.* section into a PT_NOTE segment in the output
file.
To do this, we tell ld that we need a PT_NOTE segment. This requires us to
start explicitly mapping sections to segments, so we also need to explicitly
create PT_LOAD segments for text and data, and map the sections to them
appropriately. Fortunately, each section will default to its previous
section's segment, so it doesn't take many changes to vmlinux.lds.S.
This only changes i386 for now, but I presume the corresponding changes for
other architectures will be as simple.
This change also adds <linux/elfnote.h>, which defines C and Assembler macros
for actually creating ELF notes.
