[PATCH] EFI x86: pass firmware call parameters on the stack
When calling into the EFI firmware, the parameters need to be passed on
the stack. The recent change to use -mregparm=3 breaks x86 EFI support.
This patch is needed to allow the new Intel-based Macs to suspend to ram
(efi.get_time is called during the suspend phase).

The SN Altix platform does not conform to the IOSAPIC IRQ routing model.
Add code in acpi_unregister_gsi() to check if (acpi_irq_model ==

[PATCH] kexec: Avoid migration of already disabled irqs (ia64)
This patch fixes up ia64 kexec support for HP rx2620 hardware. It does
this by skipping migration of already disabled irqs. This is most likely a
problem on other ia64 platforms as well, but I've only been able to
reproduce it on one machine so far.
The full story is that handle_bad_irq() gets invoked before starting the
new kernel without this patch. This seems to happen when fixup_irqs()
calls generic_handle_irq() on already migrated (and disabled) irqs. So by
avoiding migration of disabled irqs we stay away of handle_bad_irq().
The code has been tested on three different ia64 machines, all with good
results. It is possible to trigger the same bug by offlining a processor
using echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online.

flush_workqueue() is not allowed to be called in the softirq context.
However, aio_complete() called from I/O interrupt can potentially call
put_ioctx with last ref count on ioctx and triggers bug. It is simply
incorrect to perform ioctx freeing from aio_complete.
The bug is trigger-able from a race between io_destroy() and aio_complete().
A possible scenario:
The real problem is that the condition check of ctx->reqs_active in
wait_for_all_aios() is incorrect that access to reqs_active is not
being properly protected by spin lock.
This patch adds that protective spin lock, and at the same time removes
all duplicate ref counting for each kiocb as reqs_active is already used
as a ref count for each active ioctx. This also ensures that buggy call
to flush_workqueue() in softirq context is eliminated.

Altix: Add ACPI SSDT PCI device support (hotplug)
Support for dynamic loading and unloading of ACPI SSDT tables upon slot
hotplugs and unplugs.
On SN platforms, we now represent every populated root bus slot with a single
ACPI SSDT table containing info for every device and PPB attached to the slot.
These SSDTs are generated by the prom at initial boot and hotplug time. The
info in these SSDT tables is used by the SN kernel IO "fixup" code (which is
called at boot and hotplug time).
On hotplugs (i.e. enable_slot()), if running with an ACPI capable prom,
attempt to obtain a new ACPI SSDT table for the slot being hotplugged. If
successful, add the table to the ACPI namespace (acpi_load_table()) and then
walk the new devices and add them to the ACPI infrastructure (acpi_bus_add()).
On hot unplugs (i.e. disable_slot()), if running with an ACPI capable prom,
attempt to remove the SSDT table associated with the slot from the ACPI
namespace (acpi_unload_table_id()) and infastructure (acpi_bus_trim()).
From: John Keller <jpk@sgi.com>
A bug was fixed where the sgi hotplug driver was removing
the slot's SSDT table from the ACPI namespace a bit too early in
disable_slot(). Also, we now call acpi_bus_start() subsequent
to acpi_bus_add().

ACPI_NUMA: fix HP IA64 simulator issue with extended memory domain
ACPI 3.0 incorporated the SRAT spec, upping the table version to 2,
and extending the size of the proximity domain from 1-byte to 4-bytes.
This extension was into a reserved field that firmware should
set to 0, but the HP simulator had non-zero values there
resulting in unexpected huge numbers.
So mask the domain down to 8-bits for now.
A more general fix will be to check the table version
supplied by firmware and get paranoid about reserved fields.
