Introduce CONFIG_SUSPEND for suspend-to-Ram and standby
Introduce CONFIG_SUSPEND representing the ability to enter system sleep
states, such as the ACPI S3 state, and allow the user to choose SUSPEND
and HIBERNATION independently of each other.
Make HOTPLUG_CPU be selected automatically if SUSPEND or HIBERNATION has
been chosen and the kernel is intended for SMP systems.
Also, introduce CONFIG_PM_SLEEP which is automatically selected if
CONFIG_SUSPEND or CONFIG_HIBERNATION is set and use it to select the
code needed for both suspend and hibernation.
The top-level power management headers and the ACPI code related to
suspend and hibernation are modified to use the new definitions (the
changes in drivers/acpi/sleep/main.c are, mostly, moving code to reduce
the number of ifdefs).
There are many other files in which CONFIG_PM can be replaced with
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP or even with CONFIG_SUSPEND, but they can be updated in
the future.

Provide timespec to guests rather than jiffies clock.
A non-periodic clock_event_device and the "jiffies" clock don't mix well:

Currently lguest guests use the jiffies clock when the TSC is

in reality they are still disabled.
s390_handle_mcck will do a local_irq_save/restore pair and confuse

Fix "use after free" / "double free" bug in ati_create_gatt_pages / ati_free_gatt_pages
Hi,
Coverity spotted a "use after free" bug in
drivers/char/agp/ati-agp.c::ati_create_gatt_pages().
The same one that was in
drivers/char/agp/amd-k7-agp.c::amd_create_gatt_pages()
The problem is this:
If "entry = kzalloc(sizeof(struct ati_page_map), GFP_KERNEL);"
fails, then there's a loop in the function to free all entries
allocated so far and break out of the allocation loop. That in itself
is pretty sane, but then the (now freed) 'tables' is assigned to
ati_generic_private.gatt_pages and 'retval' is set to -ENOMEM which
causes ati_free_gatt_pages(); to be called at the end of the function.
The problem with this is that ati_free_gatt_pages() will then loop
'ati_generic_private.num_tables' times and try to free each entry in
tables[] - this is bad since tables has already been freed and
furthermore it will call kfree(tables) at the end - a double free.
This patch removes the freeing loop in ati_create_gatt_pages() and
instead relies entirely on the call to ati_free_gatt_pages() to free
everything we allocated in case of an error. It also sets
ati_generic_private.num_tables to the actual number of entries
allocated instead of just using the value passed in from the caller -
this ensures that ati_free_gatt_pages() will only attempt to free
stuff that was actually allocated.
Note: I'm in no way intimate with this code and I have no way to
actually test this patch (besides compile test it), so while I've
tried to be careful in reading the code and make sure the patch
does the right thing an ACK from someone who actually knows the
code in-depth would be very much appreciated.

Allow nodes to exist that only contain ZONE_MOVABLE
With the introduction of kernelcore=, a configurable zone is created on
request. In some cases, this value will be small enough that some nodes
contain only ZONE_MOVABLE. On some NUMA configurations when this occurs,
arch-independent zone-sizing will get the size of the memory holes within
the node incorrect. The value of present_pages goes negative and the boot
fails.
This patch fixes the bug in the calculation of the size of the hole. The
test case is to boot test a NUMA machine with a low value of kernelcore=
before and after the patch is applied. While this bug exists in early
kernel it cannot be triggered in practice.
This patch has been boot-tested on a variety machines with and without

In usual, migrate_pages(page,,) is called with holding mm->sem by system call.
(mm here is a mm_struct which maps the migration target page.)
This semaphore helps avoiding some race conditions.
But, if we want to migrate a page by some kernel codes, we have to avoid
some races. This patch adds check code for following race condition.
1. A page which page->mapping==NULL can be target of migration. Then, we have
to check page->mapping before calling try_to_unmap().
2. anon_vma can be freed while page is unmapped, but page->mapping remains as
it was. We drop page->mapcount to be 0. Then we cannot trust page->mapping.
So, use rcu_read_lock() to prevent anon_vma pointed by page->mapping from
being freed during migration.

Davi fixed a missing cast in the __put_user(), that was making timerfd
return a single byte instead of the full value.
Talking with Michael about the timerfd man page, we think it'd be better to
use a u64 for the returned value, to align it with the eventfd
implementation.
This is an ABI change. The timerfd code is new in 2.6.22 and if we merge this
into 2.6.23 then we should also merge it into 2.6.22.x. That will leave a few
early 2.6.22 kernels out in the wild which might misbehave when a future
timerfd-enabled glibc is run on them.
mtk says: The difference would be that read() will only return 4 bytes, while
the application will expect 8. If the application is checking the size of
returned value, as it should, then it will be able to detect the problem (it
could even be sophisticated enough to know that if this is a 4-byte return,
then it is running on an old 2.6.22 kernel). If the application is not
checking the return from read(), then its 8-byte buffer will not be filled --
the contents of the last 4 bytes will be undefined, so the u64 value as a
whole will be junk.

A dummy inline function of register_nosave_region_late was accidentally
removed by the recent PM patch that introduced suspend notifiers.
This elimination causes the following compiler error on PPC machines.
CC arch/powerpc/sysdev/dart_iommu.o
arch/powerpc/sysdev/dart_iommu.c: In function 'iommu_init_late_dart':
arch/powerpc/sysdev/dart_iommu.c:376: error: implicit declaration of function
'register_nosave_region_late'
make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/sysdev/dart_iommu.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/powerpc/sysdev] Error 2
This patch fixes the problem.

arm unaligned.h annotations
Have put_unaligned() warn if types would be wrong
for assignment, slap force-casts where needed. Cast the
result of get_unaligned to typeof(*ptr). With that in
place we get proper typechecking, both from gcc and from sparse,
including that for bitwise types.
