cpuid_class_cpu_callback() is callback function of a CPU hotplug
notifier_block (that is already marked as __cpuinitdata). Therefore
it can safely be marked as __cpuinit.
cpuid_device_create() is only referenced from other functions that
are __cpuinit or __init. So it can also be safely marked __cpuinit.

msr_class_cpu_callback() can be marked __cpuinit, being the notifier
callback for a __cpuinitdata notifier_block. So can be marked
msr_device_create() too, called only from the newly-__cpuinit
msr_class_cpu_callback() or from __init-marked msr_init().

cache_shared_cpu_map_setup() and cache_remove_shared_cpu_map()
are functions called from another function that is __cpuinit. But the
!CONFIG_SMP empty-body stubs of these functions are unconditionally
marked __init, which is actively wrong, and will lead to oops. But we
never saw this oops, because they always managed to get inlined in their
callsites, by virtue of being empty-body stubs! They should still be
__cpuinit, of course.
assocs[], levels[] and types[] are only referenced from function that is
__cpuinit. So these are candidates for being marked __cpuinitdata.

biosdevname is a userspace app I wrote to help solve this so we don't need
to patch the kernel for future systems. It's not integrated into any

for people who want to download and install it there. It acts as a udev

For the time being, patching the kernel is necessary. I really hope

This patch fixes a bug of change_page_attr/change_page_attr_addr on
Intel x86_64 CPUs. After changing page attribute to be executable with
these functions, the page remains un-executable on Intel x86_64 CPU.
Because on Intel x86_64 CPU, only if the "NX" bits of all four level
page tables are cleared, the corresponding page is executable (refer to
section 4.13.2 of Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's
Manual). So, the bug is fixed through clearing the "NX" bit of PMD when
splitting the huge PMD.

if CONFIG_PAGEALLOC is enabled then X86_FEATURE_PSE is disabled and all
the kernel physical RAM pagetables are set up as 4K pages. This is
needed so that CONFIG_PAGEALLOC can do finegrained mapping and unmapping
of pages.
as a side-effect though, the total size of memory allocated as kernel
pagetables increases significantly. All these pagetables are allocated
via alloc_bootmem_low_pages(), straight out of the lowmem DMA pool. If
the system has enough RAM and a large kernel image then almost all of
the 16 MB lowmem DMA pool is allocated to the image and to pagetables -
leaving no space for __GFP_DMA allocations.
this results in drivers failing and the bootup hanging:

=======================
the fix is to first allocate from above the DMA pool, and if that fails
(for example due to it being a machine with less than 16 MB of RAM),
allocate from the DMA pool as a fallback.
With this fix applied i was able to boot a PAGEALLOC=y kernel that would

notifier callback function itself has been marked __cpuinit which becomes

This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a
vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system.
makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump. It creates a
small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis. To
distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging
information. These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is
hard to install it into each system.
To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml. As
the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump
filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file
and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel.

For some time /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern has been able to set its output
destination as a pipe, allowing a user space helper to receive and
intellegently process a core. This infrastructure however has some
shortcommings which can be enhanced. Specifically:
1) The coredump code in the kernel should ignore RLIMIT_CORE limitation
when core_pattern is a pipe, since file system resources are not being
consumed in this case, unless the user application wishes to save the core,
at which point the app is restricted by usual file system limits and
restrictions.
2) The core_pattern code should be able to parse and pass options to the
user space helper as an argv array. The real core limit of the uid of the
crashing proces should also be passable to the user space helper (since it
is overridden to zero when called).
3) Some miscellaneous bugs need to be cleaned up (specifically the
recognition of a recursive core dump, should the user mode helper itself
crash. Also, the core dump code in the kernel should not wait for the user
mode helper to exit, since the same context is responsible for writing to
the pipe, and a read of the pipe by the user mode helper will result in a
deadlock.
This patch:
Remove the check of RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe. In the event that
core_pattern is a pipe, the entire core will be fed to the user mode helper.

This does #define ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE to be NT_PRXFPREG in all

We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state
after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory

Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad
state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the
application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious
that something has gone wrong.
This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather

x86_64 uses 2M page table entries to map its 1-1 kernel space. We also
implement the virtual memmap using 2M page table entries. So there is no
additional runtime overhead over FLATMEM, initialisation is slightly more
complex. As FLATMEM still references memory to obtain the mem_map pointer and
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP uses a compile time constant, SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP should be
superior.
With this SPARSEMEM becomes the most efficient way of handling virt_to_page,
pfn_to_page and friends for UP, SMP and NUMA on x86_64.

x86(-64) are the last architectures still using the page fault notifier
cruft for the kprobes page fault hook. This patch converts them to the
proper direct calls, and removes the now unused pagefault notifier bits
aswell as the cruft in kprobes.c that was related to this mess.
I know Andi didn't really like this, but all other architecture maintainers
agreed the direct calls are much better and besides the obvious cruft
removal a common way of dealing with kprobes across architectures is
important aswell.
