[PATCH] i386: clockevents fix breakage on Geode/Cyrix PIT implementations
The PIT has no dedicated mode for shut down. The only way to disable PIT
is to put it into one shot mode. AMD implementations of PIT on Geode
(also observed on Cyrix) are confused by an "empty" transition from
CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED to CLOCK_EVT_MODE_SHUTDOWN, which puts the PIT
into one shot mode momentarily.
I realized after staring helpless at the bug report
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8027 for quite a while, that
the only change, which might influence the bogomips calibration, is the
above transition during the PIT initialization.
Avoiding the unnecessary switch to oneshot and later to periodic mode
fixes the weird bogomips value and also the resulting slowness.
The fix is confirmed on OLPC and another Geode based box.
Note: this is unrelated to the Dual Core problem discussed here:

[IA64] min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation fix
We have seen bad_pte_print when testing crashdump on an SN machine in
recent 2.6.20 kernel. There are tons of bad pte print (pfn < max_low_pfn)
reports when the crash kernel boots up, all those reported bad pages
are inside initmem range; That is because if the crash kernel code and
data happens to be at the beginning of the 1st node. build_node_maps in
discontig.c will bypass reserved regions with filter_rsvd_memory. Since
min_low_pfn is calculated in build_node_map, so in this case, min_low_pfn
will be greater than kernel code and data.
Because pages inside initmem are freed and reused later, we saw
pfn_valid check fail on those pages.
I think this theoretically happen on a normal kernel. When I check
min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation in contig.c and discontig.c.
I found more issues than this.
1. min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is inconsistent between
contig.c and discontig.c,
min_low_pfn is calculated as the first page number of boot memmap in
contig.c (Why? Though this may work at the most of the time, I don't
think it is the right logic). It is calculated as the lowest physical
memory page number bypass reserved regions in discontig.c.
max_low_pfn is calculated include reserved regions in contig.c. It is
calculated exclude reserved regions in discontig.c.
2. If kernel code and data region is happen to be at the begin or the
end of physical memory, when min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is
bypassed kernel code and data, pages in initmem will report bad.
3. initrd is also in reserved regions, if it is at the begin or at the
end of physical memory, kernel will refuse to reuse the memory. Because
the virt_addr_valid check in free_initrd_mem.
So it is better to fix and clean up those issues.
Calculate min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn in a consistent way.

[PATCH] i386: trust the PM-Timer calibration of the local APIC timer
When PM-Timer is available for local APIC timer calibration we can skip the
verification of the calibrated time value. The resulting error is quite
small on a bunch of evaluated platforms and is less harming than the
observed false positives.
We need to keep the verification on systems, which have no PM-Timer to
avoid bogus local APIC timer calibrations in the range of factor 2-10,
which can be observed when swicthing off the PM-timer support in the kernel
configuration.
The wrong calibration values are probably caused by SMM code trying to
emulate a PS/2 keyboard from a (maybe connected or not) USB keyboard. This
prohibits the accurate delivery of PIT interrupts, which are used to
calibrate the local APIC timer. Unfortunately we have no way to disable
this BIOS misfeature in the early boot process.
Add also the dropped cpu_relax() back to the wait loops.

enabling DMA ("hdparm -d 1") has a bug which results in DMA being erroneously
enabled - ide_set_dma() incorrectly passes "0" return value to set_using_dma().
This may work if BIOS/firmware configured the host/device for DMA and chipset
allows independent configuration of DMA/PIO modes but won't work after suspend
and is generally unsafe on many chipsets (possibly including data corruption
if the same registers are used for DMA/PIO timings).
This patch fixes kernel bugzilla bug #8169 (piix host driver fixes for
setting PIO mode exposed the problem described above). The side-effect of
the fix is that some rare configuration may be forced to PIO mode when DMA
mode was previously used - this is addressed by the next patch which removes
CONFIG_IDEDMA_{PCI,ICS}_AUTO config option completely.
Thanks goes out to Patrick Horn for reporting the issue, narrowing it down
to the specific commit and testing the fix. Also thanks to Sergei Shtylyov
for help in debugging the problem.

cmd64x: fix recovery time calculation (take 3)
The driver wrongly takes the address setup time into account when calculating
the PIO recovery time -- this leads to slight overclocking of the PIO modes 0
and 1 (so, the prayers failed to help, as usual :-). Rework the code to be
calculating recovery clock count as a difference between the total cycle count
and the active count (we don't need to calculate the recovery time itself since
it's not specified for the PIO modes 0 to 2, and for modes 3 and 4 this formula
gives enough recovery time anyway in the chip's supported PCI frequency range).
This patch has been inspired by reading the datasheets and looking at what the
libata driver does; it has been compile-tested only (as usual :-) but anyway,
the new code gives the same or longer recovery times than the old one...

[PATCH] clockevents: Fix suspend/resume to disk hangs
I finally found a dual core box, which survives suspend/resume without
crashing in the middle of nowhere. Sigh, I never figured out from the
code and the bug reports what's going on.
The observed hangs are caused by a stale state transition of the clock
event devices, which keeps the RCU synchronization away from completion,
when the non boot CPU is brought back up.
The suspend/resume in oneshot mode needs the similar care as the
periodic mode during suspend to RAM. My assumption that the state
transitions during the different shutdown/bringups of s2disk would go
through the periodic boot phase and then switch over to highres resp.
nohz mode were simply wrong.
Add the appropriate suspend / resume handling for the non periodic
modes.

[PATCH] fix process crash caused by randomisation and 64k pages
This bug was seen on ppc64, but it could have occurred on any
architecture with a page size of 64k or above. The problem is that in
fs/binfmt_elf.c:randomize_stack_top() randomizes the stack to within
0x7ff pages. On 4k page machines, this is 8MB; on 64k page boxes, this
is 128MB.
The problem is that the new binary layout (selected in
arch_pick_mmap_layout) places the mapping segment 128MB or the stack
rlimit away from the top of the process memory, whichever is larger. If
you chose an rlimit of less than 128MB (most defaults are in the 8Mb
range) then you can end up having your entire stack randomized away.
The fix is to make randomize_stack_top() only steal at most 8MB, which this
patch does. However, I have to point out that even with this, your stack
rlimit might not be exactly what you get if it's > 128MB, because you're
still losing the random offset of up to 8MB.
The true fix should be to leave an explicit gap for the randomization plus
a buffer when determining mmap_base, but that would involve fixing all the
architectures.
