4ac0068f44 [IA64] ptrace - find memory sharers on children list
In arch/ia64/kernel/ptrace.c there is a test for a peek or poke of a
register image (in register backing storage).
The test can be unnecessarily long (and occurs while holding the tasklist_lock).
Especially long on a large system with thousands of active tasks.

The ptrace caller (presumably a debugger) specifies the pid of
its target and an address to peek or poke.  But the debugger could be
attached to several tasks.
The idea of find_thread_for_addr() is to find whether the target address
is in the RBS for any of those tasks.

Currently it searches the thread-list of the target pid.  If that search
does not find a match, and the shared mm-struct's user count indicates
that there are other tasks sharing this address space (a rare occurrence),
a search is made of all the tasks in the system.

Another approach can drastically shorten this procedure.
It depends upon the fact that in order to peek or poke from/to any task,
the debugger must first attach to that task.  And when it does, the
attached task is made a child of the debugger (is chained to its children list).

Therefore we can search just the debugger's children list.

c1902aae32 [IA64] - Avoid slow TLB purges on SGI Altix systems
flush_tlb_all() can be a scaling issue on large SGI Altix systems
since it uses the global call_lock and always executes on all cpus.
When a process enters flush_tlb_range() to purge TLBs for another
process, it is possible to avoid flush_tlb_all() and instead allow
sn2_global_tlb_purge() to purge TLBs only where necessary.

This patch modifies flush_tlb_range() so that this case can be handled
by platform TLB purge functions and updates ia64_global_tlb_purge()
accordingly.  sn2_global_tlb_purge() now calculates the region register
value from the mm argument introduced with this patch.

2ad41065d9 [TCP]: Clear stale pred_flags when snd_wnd changes
This bug is responsible for causing the infamous "Treason uncloaked"
messages that's been popping up everywhere since the printk was added.
It has usually been blamed on foreign operating systems.  However,
some of those reports implicate Linux as both systems are running
Linux or the TCP connection is going across the loopback interface.

In fact, there really is a bug in the Linux TCP header prediction code
that's been there since at least 2.1.8.  This bug was tracked down with
help from Dale Blount.

The effect of this bug ranges from harmless "Treason uncloaked"
messages to hung/aborted TCP connections.  The details of the bug
and fix is as follows.

When snd_wnd is updated, we only update pred_flags if
tcp_fast_path_check succeeds.  When it fails (for example,
when our rcvbuf is used up), we will leave pred_flags with
an out-of-date snd_wnd value.

When the out-of-date pred_flags happens to match the next incoming
packet we will again hit the fast path and use the current snd_wnd
which will be wrong.

In the case of the treason messages, it just happens that the snd_wnd
cached in pred_flags is zero while tp->snd_wnd is non-zero.  Therefore
when a zero-window packet comes in we incorrectly conclude that the
window is non-zero.

In fact if the peer continues to send us zero-window pure ACKs we
will continue making the same mistake.  It's only when the peer
transmits a zero-window packet with data attached that we get a
chance to snap out of it.  This is what triggers the treason
message at the next retransmit timeout.

7a4ed937aa [PATCH] Fix cpu timers expiration time
There's a silly off-by-one error in the code that updates the expiration
of posix CPU timers, causing them to not be properly updated when they
hit exactly on their expiration time (which should be the normal case).

This causes them to then fire immediately again, and only _then_ get
properly updated.

94c1d31845 [PATCH] Fix HFS+ to free up the space when a file is deleted.
fsck_hfs reveals lots of temporary files accumulating in the hidden
directory "\000\000\000HFS+ Private Data".  According to the HFS+
documentation these are files which are unlinked while in use.  However,
there may be a bug in the Linux hfsplus implementation which causes this to
happen even when the files are not in use.  It looks like the "opencnt"
field is never initialized as (I think) it should be in hfsplus_read_inode.
 This means that a file can appear to be still in use when in fact it has
been closed.  This patch seems to fix it for me.

35848e048f [PATCH] kill massive wireless-related log spam
Although this message is having the intended effect of causing wireless
driver maintainers to upgrade their code, I never should have merged this
patch in its present form.  Leading to tons of bug reports and unhappy
users.

Some wireless apps poll for statistics regularly, which leads to a printk()
every single time they ask for stats.  That's a little bit _too_ much of a
reminder that the driver is using an old API.

Change this to printing out the message once, per kernel boot.

7edc24c4d1 [ARM] 3032/1: sparse: complains about generic_fls() prototype in asm-arm/bitops.h
Patch from Ian Campbell

Sparse complains about the definition of generic_fls in asm-arm/bitops.h:
  CHECK   /home/icampbell/devel/kernel/2.6/arch/arm/mach-pxa/viper.c
include2/asm/bitops.h:350:34: error: marked inline, but without a definition

The definition is unnecessary since linux/bitops.h defines generic_fls before including asm/bitops.h and asm/bitops.h should not be included directly. There are still some places where asm/bitops.h is directly included, but I think that code should be fixed. I was a little wary of the patch for this reason but lubbock, mainstone and assabet all build OK and so do my in house boards...

ARM is the only arch with the generic_fls prototype in this way.
