f914be79ab [CPUFREQ] speedstep-centrino: skip extract_clock logic for acpi based centrino
speedstep_centrino.c:extract_clock() assumes the bus speed of 100MHz, which is
not true with latest laptops. Due to this assumption and due to the encoded
frequency check during initialization, speedstep-centrino driver fails even
on systems that has proper ACPI information to do the P-state transition.

The change below moves the centrino-speedstep detection to be used only
when table based P-state transition is done. For ACPI based P-state
transition, we skip the centrino_cpu identification, and as a result we
don't use the bus speed assumption in extract_clock. This change makes
speedstep-centrino work on Pentium-M based systems, which have more than 100MHz
bus speed.

81d4af1340 [PATCH] x86: pci_assign_unassigned_resources() update
I had some time to think about PCI assign issues in 2.6.13-rc series.

The major problem here is that we call pci_assign_unassigned_resources()
way too early - at subsys_initcall level. Therefore we give no chances
to ACPI and PnP routines (called at fs_initcall level) to reserve their
respective resources properly, as the comments in drivers/pnp/system.c
and drivers/acpi/motherboard.c suggest:

 /**
  * Reserve motherboard resources after PCI claim BARs,
  * but before PCI assign resources for uninitialized PCI devices
  */

So I moved the pci_assign_unassigned_resources() call to
pcibios_assign_resources() (fs_initcall), which should hopefully fix a
lot of problems and make PCIBIOS_MIN_IO tweaks unnecessary.

Other changes:
- remove resource assignment code from pcibios_assign_resources(), since
  it duplicates pci_assign_unassigned_resources() functionality and
  actually does nothing in 2.6.13;
- modify ROM assignment code as per Ben's suggestion: try to use firmware
  settings by default (if PCI_ASSIGN_ROMS is not set);
- set CARDBUS_IO_SIZE back to 4K as it's a wonderful stress test for
  various setups.

Confirmed by Tero Roponen <teanropo@cc.jyu.fi> (who had problems with
the 4kB CardBus IO size previously).

69be8f1896 [PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.
It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is
not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it.  I've written a
program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had
several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes,
confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled.

The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked.

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is
still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_
NetBSD 2.0 *).

The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of
sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this).

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being
handled is not blocked.

The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to
the way most Unix boxes work.

Unix boxes that were tested:  DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU
3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX.

* NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The
main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like
Linux.  So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that
behaves differently here with #2.

d395bf12d1 [ACPI] Reduce acpi-cpufreq switching latency by 50%
The acpi-cpufreq driver does a P-state get after a P-state set
to verify whether set went through successfully. This test
is kind of redundant as set goes throught most of the times,
and the test is also expensive as a get of P-states can
take a lot of time (same as a set operation) as it goes
through SMM mode. Effectively, we are doubling the P-state
latency due to this get opertion.

momdule parameter "acpi_pstate_strict" restores orginal paranoia.

b1daec3089 [PATCH] i386: fix incorrect FP signal code
i386 floating-point exception handling has a bug that can cause error
code 0 to be sent instead of the proper code during signal delivery.

This is caused by unconditionally checking the IS and c1 bits from the
FPU status word when they are not always relevant.  The IS bit tells
whether an exception is a stack fault and is only relevant when the
exception is IE (invalid operation.) The C1 bit determines whether a
stack fault is overflow or underflow and is only relevant when IS and IE
are set.

And the following code shows:

$ cat linux-2.6.13-rc6/arch/i386/kernel/nmi.c

[...]

void setup_apic_nmi_watchdog (void)
{
        switch (boot_cpu_data.x86_vendor) {
        case X86_VENDOR_AMD:
                if (boot_cpu_data.x86 != 6 && boot_cpu_data.x86 != 15)
                        return;
                setup_k7_watchdog();
                break;
        case X86_VENDOR_INTEL:
                 switch (boot_cpu_data.x86) {
                case 6:
                        if (boot_cpu_data.x86_model > 0xd)
                                return;

                        setup_p6_watchdog();
                        break;
                case 15:
                        if (boot_cpu_data.x86_model > 0x3)
                                return;

Here I get boot_cpu_data.x86_model == 0x4.  So I decided to change it and
reboot.  I now seem to have a working NMI.  So, unless there's something know
to be bad about this processor and the NMI.  I'm submitting the following
patch.

1f3a6a1577 [ACPI] acpi_register_gsi() can return error
Current acpi_register_gsi() function has no way to indicate errors to its
callers even though acpi_register_gsi() can fail to register gsi because of
some reasons (out of memory, lack of interrupt vectors, incorrect BIOS, and so
on).  As a result, caller of acpi_register_gsi() cannot handle the case that
acpi_register_gsi() fails.  I think failure of acpi_register_gsi() should be
handled properly.

This series of patches changes acpi_register_gsi() to return negative value on
error, and also changes callers of acpi_register_gsi() to handle failure of
acpi_register_gsi().

This patch changes the type of return value of acpi_register_gsi() from
"unsigned int" to "int" to indicate an error.  If acpi_register_gsi() fails to
register gsi, it returns negative value.

6cb54819d7 [PATCH] remove sys_set_zone_reclaim()
This removes sys_set_zone_reclaim() for now.  While i'm sure Martin is
trying to solve a real problem, we must not hard-code an incomplete and
insufficient approach into a syscall, because syscalls are pretty much
for eternity.  I am quite strongly convinced that this syscall must not
hit v2.6.13 in its current form.

Firstly, the syscall lacks basic syscall design: e.g. it allows the
global setting of VM policy for unprivileged users. (!) [ Imagine an
Oracle installation and a SAP installation on the same NUMA box fighting
over the 'optimal' setting for this flag. What will they do? Will they
try to set the flag to their own preferred value every second or so? ]

Secondly, it was added based on a single datapoint from Martin:

 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=111763597218177&w=2

where Martin characterizes the numbers the following way:

 ' Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so these numbers aren't
   terribly useful except to see that with reclaim the benchmark still
   finishes in a reasonable amount of time. '

in other words: the fundamental problem has likely not been solved, only
a tendential move into the right direction has been observed, and a
handful of numbers were picked out of a set of hugely variable results,
without showing the variability data. How much variance is there
run-to-run?

I'd really suggest to first walk the walk and see what's needed to get
stable & predictable kernel compilation numbers on that NUMA box, before
adding random syscalls to tune a particular aspect of the VM ... which
approach might not even matter once the whole picture has been analyzed
and understood!

The third, most important point is that the syscall exposes VM tuning
internals in a completely unstructured way. What sense does it make to
have a _GLOBAL_ per-node setting for 'should we go to another node for
reclaim'? If then it might make sense to do this per-app, via numalib or
so.

The change is minimalistic in that it doesnt remove the syscall and the
underlying infrastructure changes, only the user-visible changes.  We
could perhaps add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN-only sysctl for this hack, a'ka
/proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but even that looks quite counterproductive
when the generic approach is that we are trying to reduce the number of
external factors in the VM balance picture.

e1afc3f522 [PATCH] x86: avoid wasting IRQs patch update
The patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI interrupt entry, which gets
re-used, and the IRQ is assigned to another unrelated device.  The patch
corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is
avoided.  Second issue came up with VIA chipset, the problem was caused by
original patch assigning IRQs starting 16 and up.  The VIA chipset uses
4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot
handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices.  The patch corrects this
problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

e7b47ccaf6 [PATCH] i386 machine_kexec: Cleanup inline assembly
For some reason I was telling my inline assembly that the
input argument was an output argument.

Playing in the trampoline code I have seen a couple of
instances where lgdt get the wrong size (because the
trampolines run in 16bit mode) so use lgdtl and lidtl to
be explicit.

Additionally gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4 want's an lvalue for a
memory argument and it doesn't think an array of characters
is an lvalue so use a packed structure instead.

e1474e2d9d [PATCH] re-disable TSC on NUMAQ
Somewhere recently, the TSC got re-enabled for timekeeping on NUMAQ
machines.  However, the hardware makes these get unsynchronized quite
badly.  So badly, in fact, that the code to fix up the skew can just hang
on boot.

This patch re-disables them.  It's nicely confined to the numaq.c file.  It
would be great if this could make it into 2.6.13, I think it counts as a
bugfix.

Tested on a 16-proc 4-node NUMAQ.

841e40b380 Opteron revision F will support higher frequencies than
can be encoded in the current driver's 4 bit frequency
field.  This patch updates the driver to support Rev F
including 6 bit FIDs and processor ID updates.

This should apply cleanly whether or not the dual-core
bugfix I sent out last week is applied.  I'd prefer
that both get applied, of course.

03938c3f10 powernow-k8 requires that a data structure for
each core be created in the _cpu_init function
call.  The cpufreq infrastructure doesn't call
_cpu_init for the second core in each processor.
Some systems crashed when _get was called with
an odd-numbered core because it tried to
dereference a NULL pointer since the data
structure had not been created.

The attached patch solves the problem by
initializing data structures for all shared
cores in the _cpu_init function.  It should
apply to 2.6.12-rc6 and has been tested by
AMD and Sun.

ac12259f29 [PATCH] Fix incorrect Asus k7m irq router detection
This patch:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bk-commits-head&m=111955644929114&w=2
uncovered a k7m bios bug, where the VT82C686A router is reported as
being "586-compatible". The two chips have different pirq mapping, so
this leads to "irq routing conflict" on many pci devices.

The suggested fix was discussed with Aleksey Gorelov, who helped me
to identify the problem as a probable bios bug.

actual datas which are filled are only 12 bytes + 9 bits (across the
