1f7b49d042 [PATCH] ppc32: add sound support for Mac Mini
This patch applies on top of my previous g5 related sound patches and adds
support for the Mac Mini to the PowerMac Alsa driver.

However, I haven't found any kind of HW support for volume control on this
machine.  If it exist, it's well hidden.  That means that you probably want
to make sure you use software with the ability to do soft volume control,
or use Alsa 0.9 pre-release with the softvol plugin.

1bdacf88eb [PATCH] ppc32: workaround for spurious IRQs on PQ2
There is a problem with large amounts of spurious IRQs on PowerPC 82xx
systems.

The problem is corrected by adding sync at the end of cpm2_mask_and_ack.
This may be needed on 8xx as well but has not yet been confirmed.

b20cc8aff2 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix a sleep issues on some laptops
Some earlier models of aluminium powerbooks and ibook G4s have a clock chip
that requires some tweaking before and after sleep.  It seems that without
that magic incantation to disable and re-enable clock spreading, RAM isn't
properly refreshed during sleep.  This fixes it.

616299afce [PATCH] ppc32: Fix IDE related crash on wakeup
I noticed an occasional crash on wakeup from sleep on my powerbook
(strangly never happened before, probably timing related) that appears to
be due to a dangling interrupt while the chip is put to sleep and beeing
reset on wakeup.

This patch fixes is by disabling the irq in the ide pmac driver while
asleep and only re-enable it after the chip has been fully reset.  This is
safe to do so as the interrupt of these apple IDE cells is never shared.

b207a290ea [PATCH] SELinux: add finer grained permissions to Netlink audit processing
This patch provides finer grained permissions for the audit family of
Netlink sockets under SELinux.

1.  We need a way to differentiate between privileged and unprivileged
   reads of kernel data maintained by the audit subsystem.  The AUDIT_GET
   operation is unprivileged: it returns the current status of the audit
   subsystem (e.g.  whether it's enabled etc.).  The AUDIT_LIST operation
   however returns a list of the current audit ruleset, which is considered
   privileged by the audit folk.  To deal with this, a new SELinux
   permission has been implemented and applied to the operation:
   nlmsg_readpriv, which can be allocated to appropriately privileged
   domains.  Unprivileged domains would only be allocated nlmsg_read.

2.  There is a requirement for certain domains to generate audit events
   from userspace.  These events need to be collected by the kernel,
   collated and transmitted sequentially back to the audit daemon.  An
   example is user level login, an auditable event under CAPP, where
   login-related domains generate AUDIT_USER messages via PAM which are
   relayed back to auditd via the kernel.  To prevent handing out
   nlmsg_write permissions to such domains, a new permission has been
   added, nlmsg_relay, which is intended for this type of purpose: data is
   passed via the kernel back to userspace but no privileged information is
   written to the kernel.

Also, AUDIT_LOGIN messages are now valid only for kernel->user messaging,
so this value has been removed from the SELinux nlmsgtab (which is only
used to check user->kernel messages).

97e2bde47f [PATCH] add kmalloc_node, inline cleanup
The patch makes the following function calls available to allocate memory
on a specific node without changing the basic operation of the slab
allocator:

 kmem_cache_alloc_node(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags, int node);
 kmalloc_node(size_t size, unsigned int flags, int node);

in a similar way to the existing node-blind functions:

 kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags);
 kmalloc(size, flags);

kmem_cache_alloc_node was changed to pass flags and the node information
through the existing layers of the slab allocator (which lead to some minor
rearrangements).  The functions at the lowest layer (kmem_getpages,
cache_grow) are already node aware.  Also __alloc_percpu can call
kmalloc_node now.

Performance measurements (using the pageset localization patch) yields:

This is a patch for counting the number of pages for bounce buffers.  It's

Currently, the number of bounce pages are not counted anywhere.  So, if

it's difficult for a user to imagine the usage of bounce pages.  So, it's
meaningful to show # of bouce pages.

20a77776c2 [PATCH] mempool: simplify alloc
Mempool is pretty clever.  Looks too clever for its own good :) It
shouldn't really know so much about page reclaim internals.

- don't guess about what effective page reclaim might involve.

- don't randomly flush out all dirty data if some unlikely thing
  happens (alloc returns NULL). page reclaim can (sort of :P) handle
  it.

I think the main motivation is trying to avoid pool->lock at all costs.
However the first allocation is attempted with __GFP_WAIT cleared, so it
will be 'can_try_harder' if it hits the page allocator.  So if allocation
still fails, then we can probably afford to hit the pool->lock - and what's
the alternative?  Try page reclaim and hit zone->lru_lock?

A nice upshot is that we don't need to do any fancy memory barriers or do
(intentionally) racy access to pool-> fields outside the lock.

b84a35be02 [PATCH] mempool: NOMEMALLOC and NORETRY
Mempools have 2 problems.

The first is that mempool_alloc can possibly get stuck in __alloc_pages
when they should opt to fail, and take an element from their reserved pool.

The second is that it will happily eat emergency PF_MEMALLOC reserves
instead of going to their reserved pools.

Fix the first by passing __GFP_NORETRY in the allocation calls in
mempool_alloc.  Fix the second by introducing a __GFP_MEMPOOL flag which
directs the page allocator not to allocate from the reserve pool.

2cacb3da62 [PATCH] kbuild/i386: re-introduce dependency on vmlinux for install target, and add kernel_install
Removing the dependency on vmlinux for the install target raised a few
complaints, so instead a new target i added: kernel_install.

kernel_install will install the kernel just like the ordinary install target.
The only difference is that install has a dependency on vmlinux,
kernel_install does not. Therefore kernel_install is the best choice
when accessing the kernel over a NFS mount or as another user.

kernel_install is similar to modules_install in the fact that neither does
a full kernel compile before performing the install.
In this way they are good for root use. Also added back the
dependency on vmlinux for the install target so peoples scripts are no
longer broken.

9747dd6fa9 [PATCH] ppc64: fix 32-bit signal frame back link
When the kernel creates a signal frame on the user stack, it puts the
old stack pointer value at the beginning so that the signal frame is
linked into the chain of stack frames like any other frame.
Unfortunately, for 32-bit processes we are writing the old stack
pointer as a 64-bit value rather than a 32-bit value, and the process
sees that as a null pointer, since it only looks at the first 32 bits,
which are zero since ppc is bigendian and the stack pointer is below
4GB.  This bug is in SLES9 and RHEL4 too, hence the ccs.

This patch fixes the bug by making the signal code write the old stack
pointer as a u32 instead of an unsigned long.

This is required, if loader does not fully agree with Linux kernel
about UART setup manner. Linux only blindly expected some values until
now. This should enable to use even serial ports not recognized by
boot-loader as for example third UART found in the bluethoot module.
Patch also enables to detect original setup baudrate in more cases.

53e173f62c [PATCH] ARM: 2660/2: fix ixdp2800 boot and pci init
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

The IXDP2800 is an evalution platform for the IXP2800 processor that
has two IXP2800s connected to the same PCI bus.  This is problematic
as both CPUs will try to configure the PCI bus as they boot linux.
Contrary to on the other IXP2000 platforms, the boot loader on the
IXDP2800 doesn't configure the PCI bus properly, so we do want the
linux instance on one of the CPUs to do that.
Making one of the CPUs ignore the PCI bus (and thus act like a pure
PCI slave device) is not an option because there is a 82559 NIC on
the PCI bus for each of the CPUs.
The chosen solution is to have the master CPU configure the PCI bus
while the slave is kept in a quiescent state, and then to have the
slave CPU scan the PCI bus (without assigning resources) while the
master is kept in a quiescent state.  After this ritual, the master
deletes the slave NIC from its PCI device list, the slave deletes
the master NIC from its device list, and (almost) all is well.
There's still one little problem: each of the CPUs has a 1G SDRAM
BAR, but the IXP2000 only has 512M of outbound PCI memory window.
We solve this by hand-assigning the master and slave SDRAM BARs to
a location outside each of the IXP's outbound PCI windows, and by
having the rest of the BARs autoconfigured in the outbound PCI
windows, in the range [e0000000..ffffffff], so that there is a 1:1
pci:phys mapping between them.
Even with this patch, a number of issues still remain -- just imagine
what happens if one of the CPUs is rebooted, by watchdog or by hand,
but the other one isn't.  But those issues are not easily fixable
given the strange PCI layout of this board and the behavior of the
boot loader shipped with the platform.

Patch from George G. Davis

This patch is required for kernel XIP support on ARMv6 machines.  It ensures that the access permission bits for kernel XIP section descriptors are APX=1 and AP[1:0]=01, which is Kernel read-only/User no access permissions.  Prior to this change, kernel XIP section descriptor access permissions were set to Kernel no access/User no access on ARMv6 machines and the kernel would therefore hang upon entry to userspace when set_fs(USER_DS) was executed.

05f9869bf2 [PATCH] ARM: 2649/1: Fix 'sparse -Wbitwise' warnings from MMIO macros
Patch from Olav Kongas

On ARM, the outX() and writeX() families of macros take the
result of cpu_to_leYY(), which is of restricted type __leYY,
and feed it to __raw_writeX(), which expect an argument of
unrestricted type. This results in 'sparse -Wbitwise'
warnings about incorrect types in assignments. Analogous
type mismatch warnings are issued for inX() and readX()
counterparts. The below patch resolves these warnings by
adding forced typecasts.

2d2669b629 [PATCH] ARM: 2651/3: kernel helpers for NPTL support
Patch from Nicolas Pitre

This patch entirely reworks the kernel assistance for NPTL on ARM.
In particular this provides an efficient way to retrieve the TLS
value and perform atomic operations without any instruction emulation
nor special system call.  This even allows for pre ARMv6 binaries to
be forward compatible with SMP systems without any penalty.
The problematic and performance critical operations are performed
through segment of kernel provided user code reachable from user space
at a fixed address in kernel memory.  Those fixed entry points are
within the vector page so we basically get it for free as no extra
memory page is required and nothing else may be mapped at that
location anyway.
This is different from (but doesn't preclude) a full blown VDSO
implementation, however a VDSO would prevent some assembly tricks with
constants that allows for efficient branching to those code segments.
And since those code segments only use a few cycles before returning to
user code, the overhead of a VDSO far call would add a significant
overhead to such minimalistic operations.
The ARM_NR_set_tls syscall also changed number.  This is done for two
reasons:
1) this patch changes the way the TLS value was previously meant to be
   retrieved, therefore we ensure whatever library using the old way
   gets fixed (they only exist in private tree at the moment since the
   NPTL work is still progressing).
2) the previous number was allocated in a range causing an undefined
   instruction trap on kernels not supporting that syscall and it was
   determined that allocating it in a range returning -ENOSYS would be
   much nicer for libraries trying to determine if the feature is
   present or not.

Patch from George G. Davis

As noted in http://www.arm.com/linux/patch-2.6.9-arm1.gz, the "Faulty SWP instruction on 1136 doesn't set bit 11 in DFSR." So the v6_early_abort handler does not report the correct rd/wr direction for the SWP instruction which may result in SEGVS or hangs. In order to work around this problem, this patch merely updates the fix contained in the ARM Ltd. patch to use the macroised abort handler fixups.

458a83fa43 [PATCH] ARM: 2659/1: do not assign PCI I/O address zero on IXP2000
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

Assigning the address zero to a PCI device BAR causes some part of the
PCI subsystem to believe that resource allocation for that BAR failed
due to resource conflicts, which will make attempts to enable the
device fail.  Work around this by assigning I/O addresses starting
from 00010000.
While we're at it, make the PCI I/O resource end at 0001ffff, since we
only have 64k of outbound I/O window on the IXP2000, and we don't do
bank switching.
