Anton Blanchard 651d765d0b [PATCH] Add a prctl to change the endianness of a process.
This new prctl is intended for changing the execution mode of the
processor, on processors that support both a little-endian mode and a
big-endian mode.  It is intended for use by programs such as
instruction set emulators (for example an x86 emulator on PowerPC),
which may find it convenient to use the processor in an alternate
endianness mode when executing translated instructions.

Note that this does not imply the existence of a fully-fledged ABI for
both endiannesses, or of compatibility code for converting system
calls done in the non-native endianness mode.  The program is expected
to arrange for all of its system call arguments to be presented in the
native endianness.

Switching between big and little-endian mode will require some care in
constructing the instruction sequence for the switch.  Generally the
instructions up to the instruction that invokes the prctl system call
will have to be in the old endianness, and subsequent instructions
will have to be in the new endianness.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 3b5e905ee3 [PATCH] powerpc: Add udbg-immortal kernel option
When debugging early kernel crashes that happen after console_init() and
before a proper console driver takes over, we often have to go hack into
udbg.c to prevent it from unregistering so we can "see" what is
happening. This patch adds a kernel command line option "udbg-immortal"
instead to avoid having to modify the kernel.

On 64bit powerpc we can find out what node a pci bus hangs off, so
implement the topology.h macros that export this information.

For 32bit this seems a little more difficult, but I don't know of 32bit

John Rose 507279db18 [PATCH] powerpc: reorg RTAS delay code
This patch attempts to handle RTAS "busy" return codes in a more simple
and consistent manner.  Typical callers of RTAS shouldn't have to
manage wait times and delay calls.

This patch also changes the kernel to use msleep() rather than udelay()
when a runtime delay is necessary.  This will avoid CPU soft lockups
for extended delay conditions.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt c5cf0e30bf [PATCH] powerpc: Fix buglet with MMU hash management
Our MMU hash management code would not set the "C" bit (changed bit) in
the hardware PTE when updating a RO PTE into a RW PTE. That would cause
the hardware to possibly to a write back to the hash table to set it on
the first store access, which in addition to being a performance issue,
might also hit a bug when running with native hash management (non-HV)
as our code is specifically optimized for the case where no write back
happens.

Thus there is a very small therocial window were a hash PTE can become
corrupted if that HPTE has just been upgraded to read write, a store
access happens on it, and that races with another processor evicting
that same slot. Since eviction (caused by an almost full hash) is
extremely rare, the bug is very unlikely to happen fortunately.

This fixes by allowing the updating of the protection bits in the native
hash handling to also set (but not clear) the "C" bit, and, in order to
also improve performances in the general case, by always setting that
bit on newly inserted hash PTE so that writeback really never happens.

I do not understand why historically these tags has been defined as

Ralf Baechle 7f3f1d01a9 [MIPS] Fix deadlock on MP with cache aliases.
A proper fix would involve introducing the notion of shared caches but
at this stage of 2.6.17 that's going to be too intrusive and not needed
for current hardware; aside I think some discussion will be needed.

So for now on the affected SMP configurations which happen to suffer from
cache aliases we make use of the fact that a single cache will be shared
by all processors.  This solves the deadlock issue and will improve
performance by getting rid of the smp_call_function overhead.

Sergei Shtylyov 6e9538917c [MIPS] Fix marking buddy of pte global for MIPS32 w/36-bit physical address
In case of CONFIG_64BIT_PHYS_ADDR, set_pte() and pte_clear() functions
only set _PAGE_GLOBAL bit in the pte_low field of the buddy PTEs,
forgetting to propagate ito to pte_high. Thus, the both pages might not
really be made global for the CPU (since it AND's the G-bit of the
odd / even PTEs together to decide whether they're global or not). Thus,
if only a single page is allocated via vmalloc() or ioremap(), it's not
really global for CPU (and it must be, since this is kernel mapping),
and thus its ASID is compared against the current process' one -- so,
we'll get into trouble sooner or later...  Also, pte_none() will fail
on global pages because _PAGE_GLOBAL bit is set in both pte_low and
pte_high, and pte_val() will return u64 value consisting of those fields
concateneted.

NeilBrown c331eb04b9 [PATCH] md: Fix badness in sysfs_notify caused by md_new_event
From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

If an error is reported by a drive in a RAID array (which is done via
bi_end_io - in interrupt context), we call md_error and md_new_event which
calls sysfs_notify.  However sysfs_notify grabs a mutex and so cannot be
called in interrupt context.

This patch just creates a variant of md_new_event which avoids the sysfs
call, and uses that.  A better fix for later is to arrange for the event to
be called from user-context.

Note: avoiding the sysfs call isn't a problem as an error will not, by
itself, modify the sync_action attribute.  (We do still need to
wake_up(&md_event_waiters) as an error by itself will modify /proc/mdstat).

Corey Minyard d61a3ead26 [PATCH] IPMI: reserve I/O ports separately
From: Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org>

This patch is pretty important to get in for IPMI, new systems have been
changing the way ACPI and IPMI interact, and this works around the problems
for now.  This is a temporary fix until we get proper ACPI handling in
IPMI.

Fixed releasing already-allocated regions when a later request fails, and
forward-ported it to HEAD.

Some BIOSes reserve disjoint I/O regions in their ACPI tables for the IPMI
controller.  This causes problems when trying to register the entire I/O
region.  Therefore we must register each I/O port separately.

Seiji Munetoh 44d7aff035 [PATCH] tpm: more bios log parsing fixes
From: Seiji Munetoh <seiji.munetoh@gmail.com>

Change the binary output format to actual ACPI TCPA log structure since the
current format does not contain all event-data information that need to
verify the PCRs in TPM.  tpm_binary_bios_measurements_show() uses
get_event_name() to convert the binary event-data to ascii format, and puts
them as binary.  However, to verify the PCRs, the event-data must be a
actual binary event-data used by SHA1 calc.  in BIOS.

So, I think actual ACPI TCPA log is good for this binary output format.
That way, any userland tools easily parse this data with reference to TCG
PC specification.

Yasunori Goto 25a6df9525 [PATCH] spanned_pages is not updated at a case of memory hot-add
From: Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com>

If hot-added memory's address is smaller than old area, spanned_pages will
not be updated.  It must be fixed.

example) Old zone_start_pfn = 0x60000, and spanned_pages = 0x10000
         Added new memory's start_pfn = 0x50000, and end_pfn = 0x60000

  new spanned_pages will be still 0x10000 by old code.
  (It should be updated to 0x20000.) Because old_zone_end_pfn will be
  0x70000, and end_pfn smaller than it. So, spanned_pages will not be
  updated.

In current code, spanned_pages is updated only when end_pfn is updated.
But, it should be updated by subtraction between bigger end_pfn and new
zone_start_pfn.

David Hollister 308af9290a [PATCH] fbcon: fix scrollback with logo issue immediately after boot
From: David Hollister <david.hollister@amd.com>

After the system boots with the logo, if the first action is a scrollback, the
screen may become garbled.  This patch ensures that the softback_curr value is
updated along with softback_in following the scrollback.

Deepak Saxena e6ed89ac9f [PATCH] ARM: explicitly disable BTB on ixp2350
We don't enable the BTB on the ixp2350 as that can cause weird
crashes (erratum #42.)  However, some bootloaders enable the BTB,
which means that we have to disable the BTB explicitly.

Found thanks to Tom Rini.

Linus Torvalds 9a8fca0499 Revert "[PATCH] i386/x86_64: Force pci=noacpi on HP XW9300"
This reverts commit 5491d0f3e2.

As per Andi:

  "After some discussion with people who have the affected system it
   seems best to revert for 2.6.17.  It broke a common BIOS workaround
   and PCI-X still doesn't work.  Alternative is for people to change
   the BIOS which seems to be better right now."

Robert Hentosh 7ca97c6131 [PATCH] x86_64: Fix off by one in bad_addr checking in find_e820_area
From: Robert Hentosh <robert_hentosh@dell.com>

Actually, we just stumbled on a different bug found in find_e820_area() in
e820.c.  The following code does not handle the edge condition correctly:

   while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size < ei->addr + ei->size)
       ;
   last = addr + size;
   if ( last > ei->addr + ei->size )
       continue;

The second statement in the while loop needs to be a <= b so that it is the
logical negavite of the if (a > b) outside it. It needs to read:

   while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size <= ei->addr + ei->size)
       ;

In the case that failed bad_addr was returning an address that is exactly size
bellow the end of the e820 range.

AK: Again together with the earlier avoid edma fix this fixes
