Nathan Lynch <ntl@pobox.com> reported:
2.6.23-rc1 breaks the build for 64-bit powerpc for me (using
maple_defconfig):
LD vmlinux.o
powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld: dynreloc miscount for
kernel/built-in.o, section .opd
powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld: can not edit opd Bad value
make: *** [vmlinux.o] Error 1
However, I see a possibly related binutils patch:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.binutils/33650
It was tracked down to be caused by the weak prototype
declaration in mm.h:
__attribute__((weak)) const char *arch_vma_name(struct vm_area_struct *vma);
But there is no need to make the declaration weak - only the definition
needs to be marked weak. So drop the weak declaration. And in the process
drop the duplicate definition in page.h for powerpc.
Note: the arch_vma_name fix for x86_64 needs to be applied first to avoid
breaking x86_64

A dummy inline function of register_nosave_region_late was accidentally
removed by the recent PM patch that introduced suspend notifiers.
This elimination causes the following compiler error on PPC machines.

This avoids xtime lag seen with dynticks, because while 'xtime' itself
is still not updated often, we keep a 'xtime_cache' variable around that
contains the approximate real-time that _is_ updated each time we do a
'update_wall_time()', and is thus never off by more than one tick.
IOW, this restores the original semantics for 'xtime' users, as long as
you use the proper abstraction functions (ie 'current_kernel_time()' or
'get_seconds()' depending on whether you want a timespec or just the
seconds field).
[ Updated Patch. As penance for my sins I've also yanked another #ifdef
that was added to avoid the xtime lag w/ hrtimers. ]

This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
of the actual time-related functions. Instead, use the helper functions
that we already have available to us.
This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
(because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
third of a second or so.

ACPI implementations in several TOSHIBA laptops are weird and burn cpu
cycles for tens of seconds while trying to suspend if the PCI device
for the ATA controller is disabled when the ACPI suspend is called.
This patch uses DMI to match those machines and bypass device disable
on those machines during suspend. As the device needs to be put into
enabled state on resume without affecting PCI enable count, matching
resume callback uses __pci_reenable_device().

Some odd ACPI implementations choke if certain controller is disabled
when ACPI suspend is invoked but we still need to make sure the PCI
device is enabled during resume. Simply using pci_enable_device()
unbalances device enable count. Export __pci_reenable_device().

At present, various parts of the serial code use unsigned long to define
resource addresses. This is a problem, because some 32-bit platforms have
physical addresses larger than 32-bits, and have mmio serial uarts located
above the 4GB point.
This patch changes the type of mapbase in both struct uart_port and struct
plat_serial8250_port to resource_size_t, which can be configured to be 64
bits on such platforms. The mapbase in serial_struct can't safely be
changed, because that structure is user visible.

This patch makes the i386 behave the same way that x86_64 does when a
segfault happens. A line gets printed to the kernel log so that tools
that need to check for failures can behave more uniformly between
debug.show_unhandled_signals sysctl variable to 0 (or by doing echo 0 >
/proc/sys/debug/exception-trace)
Also, all of the lines being printed are now using printk_ratelimit() to
deny the ability of DoS from a local user with a program like the
following:
main()
{
while (1)
if (!fork()) *(int *)0 = 0;
}
This new revision also includes the fix that Andrew did which got rid of
new sysctl that was added to the system in earlier versions of this.
Also, 'show-unhandled-signals' sysctl has been renamed back to the old
'exception-trace' to avoid breakage of people's scripts.

Selinux folks had been complaining about the lack of AVC_PATH
records when audit is disabled. I must admit my stupidity - I assumed
that avc_audit() really couldn't use audit_log_d_path() because of
deadlocks (== could be called with dcache_lock or vfsmount_lock held).
Shouldn't have made that assumption - it never gets called that way.
It _is_ called under spinlocks, but not those.
Since audit_log_d_path() uses ab->gfp_mask for allocations,
kmalloc() in there is not a problem. IOW, the simple fix is sufficient:
let's rip AUDIT_AVC_PATH out and simply generate pathname as part of main
record. It's trivial to do.

get_vm_area always returns an area with an adjacent guard page. That guard
page is included in vm_struct.size. iounmap uses vm_struct.size to
determine how much address space needs to have change_page_attr applied to
it, which will BUG if applied to the guard page.
This patch adds a helper function - get_vm_area_size() in linux/vmalloc.h -
to return the actual size of a vm area, and uses it to make iounmap do the
right thing. There are probably other places which should be using
get_vm_area_size().

For NUMA emulation, our SLIT should represent the true NUMA topology of the
system but our proximity domain to node ID mapping needs to reflect the
emulated state.
When NUMA emulation has successfully setup fake nodes on the system, a new
function, acpi_fake_nodes() is called. This function determines the proximity
domain (_PXM) for each true node found on the system. It then finds which
emulated nodes have been allocated on this true node as determined by its
starting address. The node ID to PXM mapping is changed so that each fake
node ID points to the PXM of the true node that it is located on.
If the machine failed to register a SLIT, then we assume there is no special
requirement for emulated node affinity so we use the default LOCAL_DISTANCE,
which is newly exported to this code, as our measurement if the emulated nodes
appear in the same PXM. Otherwise, we use REMOTE_DISTANCE.
PXM_INVAL and NID_INVAL are also exported to the ACPI header file so that we
can compare node_to_pxm() results in generic code (in this case, the SRAT
code).

gcc 4.3 supports a new __attribute__((__cold__)) to mark functions cold. Any
path directly leading to a call of this function will be unlikely. And gcc
will try to generate smaller code for the function itself.
Please use with care. The code generation advantage isn't large and in most
cases it is not worth uglifying code with this.
This patch marks some common error functions like panic(), printk()
as cold. This will longer term make many unlikely()s unnecessary, although
we can keep them for now for older compilers.
BUG is not marked cold because there is currently no way to tell
gcc to mark a inline function told.
Also all __init and __exit functions are marked cold. With a non -Os
build this will tell the compiler to generate slightly smaller code
for them. I think it currently only uses less alignments for labels,
but that might change in the future.
One disadvantage over *likely() is that they cannot be easily instrumented
to verify them.
Another drawback is that only the latest gcc 4.3 snapshots support this.
Unfortunately we cannot detect this using the preprocessor. This means older
snapshots will fail now. I don't think that's a problem because they are
unreleased compilers that nobody should be using.
gcc also has a __hot__ attribute, but I don't see any sense in using
this in the kernel right now. But someday I hope gcc will be able
to use more aggressive optimizing for hot functions even in -Os,
if that happens it should be added.
Includes compile fix from Thomas Gleixner.

In acpi_scan_nodes(), we immediately return -1 if acpi_numa <= 0, meaning
we haven't detected any underlying ACPI topology or we have explicitly
disabled its use from the command-line with numa=noacpi.
acpi_table_print_srat_entry() and acpi_table_parse_srat() are only
referenced within drivers/acpi/numa.c, so we can mark them as static and
remove their prototypes from the header file.
Likewise, pxm_to_node_map[] and node_to_pxm_map[] are only used within
drivers/acpi/numa.c, so we mark them as static and remove their externs
from the header file.
The automatic 'result' variable is unused in acpi_numa_init(), so it's
removed.

i386 and sparc64 have the identical code to update the cmos clock. Move it
into kernel/time/ntp.c as there are other architectures coming along with the
same requirements.
