[PATCH] KVM: MMU: Shadow page table caching
Define a hashtable for caching shadow page tables. Look up the cache on
context switch (cr3 change) or during page faults.
The key to the cache is a combination of
- the guest page table frame number
- the number of paging levels in the guest
* we can cache real mode, 32-bit mode, pae, and long mode page
tables simultaneously. this is useful for smp bootup.
- the guest page table table
* some kernels use a page as both a page table and a page directory. this
allows multiple shadow pages to exist for that page, one per level
- the "quadrant"
* 32-bit mode page tables span 4MB, whereas a shadow page table spans
2MB. similarly, a 32-bit page directory spans 4GB, while a shadow
page directory spans 1GB. the quadrant allows caching up to 4 shadow page
tables for one guest page in one level.
- a "metaphysical" bit
* for real mode, and for pse pages, there is no guest page table, so set
the bit to avoid write protecting the page.

- Fix the sysfs and procfs display of crystal and trim data.
Features:

- Declare the other registers.
- Provide alarm get/set functionality.
- Handle AIE and UIE; but no IRQ handling yet.
Cleanup:
- Shrink object by not including needless sysfs or procfs support
- We don't need no steenkin' forward declarations. (Except one.)
Until the I2C framework merges "new style" driver support, matching
the driver model better, using rv5c chips or alarm IRQs requires a

The problem here is that the void cast causes return types to not be
promoted, and for ops such as listxattr which expect more than 32 bits of
return value, the 32-bit -EIO is interpreted as a large positive 64-bit
number, i.e. 0x00000000fffffffa instead of 0xfffffffa.
This goes particularly badly when the return value is taken as a number of
bytes to copy into, say, a user's buffer for example...
I originally had coded up the fix by creating a return_EIO_<TYPE> macro
for each return type, like this:
but Al felt that it was probably better to create an EIO-returner for each
actual op signature. Since so few ops share a signature, I just went ahead
& created an EIO function for each individual file & inode op that returns
a value.

[PATCH] KVM: Improve interrupt response
The current interrupt injection mechanism might delay an interrupt under
the following circumstances:
- if injection fails because the guest is not interruptible (rflags.IF clear,
or after a 'mov ss' or 'sti' instruction). Userspace can check rflags,
but the other cases or not testable under the current API.
- if injection fails because of a fault during delivery. This probably
never happens under normal guests.
- if injection fails due to a physical interrupt causing a vmexit so that
it can be handled by the host.
In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing
the interactive feel and interrupt throughput of the guest.
This patch fixes the situation by allowing userspace to request an exit
when the 'interrupt window' opens, so that it can re-inject the interrupt
at the right time. Guest interactivity is very visibly improved.

CPU's too, but not so much as previously, and this code was
already used for Ezra. Using MinMHzBR for Ezra-T is outside
spec. It is for voltage scaling purpose and don't have to
be equal to minmult (but it is). Same for Nehemiah (it
isn't for sure). Added mult - current multiplier value.

[ARM] 4081/1: Add definition for TI Sync Serial Protocol
Of the possible SSP frame formats (FRF bits in SSCR0), only SSCR0_PSP is defined. Other possible formats are Motorola SPI (0<<4), TI SSP (1<<4) and Microwire (2<<4). Attached patch adds a definition SSCR0_TISSP.
This mode is used for the sound codec attached to the PXA272 SSP1 of some HTC PDA phones.

[PATCH] Fix insta-reboot with "i386: Relocatable kernel support"
Commit 968de4f02621db35b8ae5239c8cfc6664fb872d8 ("i386: Relocatable
kernel support") caused problems for people with old binutils versions
that didn't mark ".text.*" sections automatically allocated.
So we should use .section command to specifically mark .text.head
section as AX (allocatable and executable) to solve the problem.
This should be unnecessary with binutils 2.15 and later, which is
already three years old, but it doesn't hurt supporting older toolchains
where possible.

do not call a sleeping lock API in an RCU read section.
lock_sock_nested can sleep, its BH counterpart doesn't.
selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() needs to use the BH counterpart
unconditionally.
Compile tested.
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
added BH disabling, because this function can be called from non-atomic
contexts too, so a naked bh_lock_sock() would be deadlock-prone.

[PATCH] cfq-iosched: merging problem
Two issues:
- The final return 1 should be a return 0, otherwise comparing cfqq is
a noop.
- bio_sync() only checks the sync flag, while rq_is_sync() checks both
for READ and sync. The latter is what we want. Expand the bio check
to include reads, and relax the restriction to allow merging of async
io into sync requests.
In the future we want to clean up the SYNC logic, right now it means
both sync request (such as READ and O_DIRECT WRITE) and unplug-on-issue.
Leave that for later.

[PATCH] libata: fix combined mode
This is a slight variant on the patch I posted December 16th to fix
libata combined mode handling. The only real change is that we now
correctly also reserve BAR1,2,4. That is basically a neatness issue.
Jeff was unhappy about two things
1. That it didn't work in the case of one channel native one channel
legacy.
This is a silly complaint because the SFF layer in libata doesn't handle
this case yet anyway.
2. The case where combined mode is in use and IDE=n.
In this case the libata quirk code reserves the resources in question
correctly already.
Once the combined mode stuff is redone properly (2.6.21) then the entire
mess turns into a single pci_request_regions() for all cases and all the
ugly resource hackery goes away.
I'm sending this now rather than after running full test suites so that
it can get the maximal testing in a short time. I'll be running tests on
this after lunch.
