| * [PATCH] splice: add support for sys_tee()Jens Axboe2006-04-113-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference. Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and file output, this syscall merely duplicates the data inside a pipe to another pipe. No data is copied, the output just grabs a reference to the input pipe data. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
* | [IA64] Make show_mem() skip holes in a pgdatRobin Holt2006-04-131-1/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies ia64's show_mem() to walk the vmem_map page tables and rapidly skip forward across regions where the page tables are missing. This prevents the pfn_valid() check from causing numerous unnecessary page faults. Without this patch on a 512 node 512 cpu system where every node has four memory holes, the show_mem() call takes 1 hour 18 minutes. With this patch, it takes less than 3 seconds.

* | [IA64] ia64_wait_for_slaves() incorrectly reports MCAKeith Owens2006-04-131-5/+5
|/ | | | | | | | | | ia64_wait_for_slaves() was changed in 2.6.17-rc1 to report the slave state. It incorrectly assumes that all slaves are for MCA, but ia64_wait_for_slaves() is also called from the INIT monarch handler. The existing message is very misleading, so correct it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When nolapic was passed or the local APIC was disabled for another reason ACPI would still parse the IO-APICs until these were explicitely disabled with noapic. Usually this resulted in a non booting configuration unless "nolapic noapic" was used. I also disabled the local APIC parsing in this case, although that's only cosmetic (suppresses a few printks) This hopefully makes nolapic work in all cases.

* | [PATCH] No arch-specific strpbrk implementationsKyle McMartin2006-04-1119-20/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While cleaning up parisc_ksyms.c earlier, I noticed that strpbrk wasn't being exported from lib/string.c. Investigating further, I noticed a changeset that removed its export and added it to _ksyms.c on a few more architectures. The justification was that "other arches do it." I think this is wrong, since no architecture currently defines __HAVE_ARCH_STRPBRK, there's no reason for any of them to be exporting it themselves. Therefore, consolidate the export to lib/string.c.

* | [PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFTYasunori Goto2006-04-1110-9/+57
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for each arch. Its definition is sometimes configurable. Indeed, ia64 defines 5 NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree. But it looks a bit messy. SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has been changeable by config. Suitable node's number may be changed in the future even if it is other architecture. So, I wrote configurable node's number. This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi nodes except ia64. But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary. On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2 config. But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too. So, I changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT. It would be simpler.

* | [PATCH] uml: memory hotplug cleanupsJeff Dike2006-04-111-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change memory hotplug to use GFP_NOWAIT instead of GFP_ATOMIC, so that it will grab memory without sleeping, but doesn't try to use the emergency pools. A small list initialization suggested by Daniel Phillips - don't initialize lists which are just about to be list_add-ed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update {get,put}_user macros for m32r kernel. - Modify get_user to use __get_user_asm macro, instead of __get_user_x macro. - Remove arch/m32r/lib/{get,put}user.S. - Some cosmetic updates. I would like to thank NIIBE Yutaka for his reporting about the m32r kernel's security problem in {get,put}_user macros. There were no address checking for user space access in {get,put}_user macros. ;-) Signed-off-by: Hirokazu Takata <takata@linux-m32r.org> Cc: NIIBE Yutaka <gniibe@fsij.org> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* | [PATCH] m32r: Fix cpu_possible_map and cpu_present_map initialization for ↵Hirokazu Takata2006-04-112-16/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SMP kernel This patch fixes a boot problem of the m32r SMP kernel 2.6.16-rc1-mm3 or later. In this patch, cpu_possible_map is statically initialized, and cpu_present_map is also copied from cpu_possible_map in smp_prepare_cpus(), because the m32r architecture has not supported CPU hotplug yet.

* | [PATCH] alpha: SMP boot fixesBrian Uhrain says2006-04-112-5/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've encountered two problems with 2.6.16 and newer kernels on my API CS20 (dual 833MHz Alpha 21264b processors). The first is the kernel OOPSing because of a NULL pointer dereference while trying to populate SysFS with the CPU information. The other is that only one processor was being brought up. I've included a small Alpha-specific patch that fixes both problems. The first problem was caused by the CPUs never being properly registered using register_cpu(), the way it's done on other architectures. The second problem has to do with the removal of hwrpb_cpu_present_mask in arch/alpha/kernel/smp.c. In setup_smp() in the 2.6.15 kernel sources, hwrpb_cpu_present_mask has a bit set for each processor that is probed, and afterwards cpu_present_mask is set to the cpumask for the boot CPU. In the same function of the same file in the 2.6.16 sources, instead of hwrpb_cpu_present_mask being set, cpu_possible_map is updated for each probed CPU. cpu_present_mask is still set to the cpumask of the boot CPU afterwards. The problem lies in include/asm-alpha/smp.h, where cpu_possible_map is #define'd to be cpu_present_mask. Cleanups from: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> - cpu_present_mask and cpu_possible_map are essentially the same thing on alpha, as it doesn't support CPU hotplug; - allocate "struct cpu" only for present CPUs, like sparc64 does. Static array of "struct cpu" is just a waste of memory.
