This patch adds the ability to print sizes in either units of 10^3 (SI)
or 2^10 (Binary) units. It rounds up to three significant figures and
can be used for either memory or storage capacities.
Oh, and I'm fully aware that 64 bits is only 16EiB ... the Zetta and
Yotta units are added for future proofing against the day we have 128
bit computers ...

This patch adds stalled-CPU detection to Classic RCU. This capability
is enabled by a new config variable CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR, which
defaults disabled.
This is a debugging feature to detect infinite loops in kernel code, not
something that non-kernel-hackers would be expected to care about.
This feature can detect looping CPUs in !PREEMPT builds and looping CPUs
with preemption disabled in PREEMPT builds. This is essentially a port of
this functionality from the treercu patch, replacing the stall debug patch
that is already in tip/core/rcu (commit 67182ae1c4).
The changes from the patch in tip/core/rcu include making the config
variable name match that in treercu, changing from seconds to jiffies to
avoid spurious warnings, and printing a boot message when this feature
is enabled.

x86 has set_bit_string() that does the exact same thing that
set_bit_area() in lib/iommu-helper.c does.
This patch exports set_bit_area() in lib/iommu-helper.c as
iommu_area_reserve(), converts GART, Calgary, and AMD IOMMU to use it.

bitmap_copy_le() copies a bitmap, putting the bits into little-endian
order (i.e., each unsigned long word in the bitmap is put into
little-endian order).
The UWB stack used bitmaps to manage Medium Access Slot availability,
and these bitmaps need to be written to the hardware in LE order.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block:
sg: disable interrupts inside sg_copy_buffer
|
|
The callers of sg_copy_buffer must disable interrupts before calling
it (since it uses kmap_atomic). Some callers use it on
interrupt-disabled code but some need to take the trouble to disable
interrupts just for this. No wonder they forget about it and we hit a
bug like:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11529
James said that it might be better to disable interrupts inside the
function rather than risk the callers getting it wrong.

This fixes a SWIOTLB oops
With SWIOTLB being enabled and straight-forward page allocation
failure [1], the swiotlb_alloc_coherent fall-back path hits an
issue [2], resulting in my webcam failing to work.
At the time of oops, RDI is clearly a pointer to a structure which
has arrived as NULL, leading to the typo in swiotlb_map_single's
callsite arguments.
Correctly passing the device structure [3] addresses the issue and
gets my webcam working again (the allocation failure still occuring).

It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer
formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7bd0020f29ffe287dfdb9ead33ca0b2. However,
the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1)
parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for
function descriptors
Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing
architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64
and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel
internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

This bug is causing random crashes
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11414).
-fno-omit-frame-pointer is only needed on powerpc when -pg is also
supplied, and there is a gcc bug that causes incorrect code generation
on 32-bit powerpc when -fno-omit-frame-pointer is used---it uses stack
locations below the stack pointer, which is not allowed by the ABI
because those locations can and sometimes do get corrupted by an
interrupt.
This ensures that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is only selected by ftrace.
When CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled we also pass -mno-sched-epilog to work
around the gcc codegen bug.

We fix it by moving the actual freeing to outside the lock (the lock
now only protects the list).
The pool lock is also promoted to irq-safe (suggested by Dan). It's
necessary because free_pool is now called outside the irq disabled
region. So we need to protect against an interrupt handler which calls
debug_object_init().

percpu_counter_sum_and_set() and percpu_counter_sum() is the same except
the former updates the global counter after accounting. Since we are
taking the fbc->lock to calculate the precise value of the counter in
percpu_counter_sum() anyway, it should simply set fbc->count too, as the
percpu_counter_sum_and_set() does.
This patch merges these two interfaces into one.

I noticed that sysctl_check.o was the largest object file in
a allnoconfig build in kernel/*.
36243 0 0 36243 8d93 kernel/sysctl_check.o
This is because it was default y and && EMBEDDED. But I don't
really see a need for a non kernel developer to have their
sysctls checked all the time.
So move the Kconfig into the kernel debugging section and
also drop the default y and the EMBEDDED check.

The idea of the implementation of this fix is from Michael Ellerman.
This function has two loops, but they each interpret the memory_limit
value differently. The first loop interprets it as a "size limit"
whereas the second loop interprets it as an "address limit".
Before the second loop runs, reset memory_limit to lmb_end_of_DRAM()
so that it all works out.

Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot
since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in
text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to
be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code
instead of bad examples.
Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir.
Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol.
Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the
Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system.
However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need
to be installed (for userspace builds).
Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32,
sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

Short enough reads from /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity return -EINVAL for no
good reason.
This became noticed with NR_CPUS=4096 patches, when length of printed
representation of cpumask becase 1152, but cat(1) continued to read with
1024-byte chunks. bitmap_scnprintf() in good faith fills buffer, returns
1023, check returns -EINVAL.
Fix it by switching to seq_file, so handler will just fill buffer and
doesn't care about offsets, length, filling EOF and all this crap.
For that add seq_bitmap(), and wrappers around it -- seq_cpumask() and
seq_nodemask().

this is a diagnostic patch for Classic RCU.
The approach is to record a timestamp at the beginning
of the grace period (in rcu_start_batch()), then have
rcu_check_callbacks() complain if:
1. it is running on a CPU that has holding up grace periods for
a long time (say one second). This will identify the culprit
assuming that the culprit has not disabled hardware irqs,
instruction execution, or some such.
2. it is running on a CPU that is not holding up grace periods,
but grace periods have been held up for an even longer time
(say two seconds).
It is enabled via the default-off CONFIG_DEBUG_RCU_STALL kernel parameter.
Rather than exponential backoff, it backs off to once per 30 seconds.
My feeling upon thinking on it was that if you have stalled RCU grace
periods for that long, a few extra printk() messages are probably the
least of your worries...

The rationale is:
* use u32 consistently
* no need to do LCG on values from (better) get_random_bytes
* use more data from get_random_bytes for secondary seeding
* don't reduce state space on srandom32()
* enforce state variable initialization restrictions
Note: the second paper has a version of random32() with even longer period
and a version of random64() if needed.

This IOMMU helper function doesn't work for some architectures:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121699304403202&w=2
It also breaks POWER and SPARC builds:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121730388001890&w=2
Currently, only x86 IOMMUs use this so let's move it to x86 for
now.

This adds the new function task_current_syscall() on machines where the
asm/syscall.h interface is supported (CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK). It's
exported for modules to use in the future. This function safely samples
the state of a blocked thread to collect what system call it is blocked
in, and the six system call argument registers.
