e360adbe29 irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.

Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.

The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.

Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

cf4db2597a ftrace: Rename config option HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT
The config option used by archs to let the build system know that
the C version of the recordmcount works for said arch is currently
called HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD which enables BUILD_C_RECORDMCOUNT. To
be more consistent with the name that all archs may use, it has been
renamed to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT. This will be less confusing since
we are building a C recordmcount and not a mcount_record.

This patch adds the support for the C version of recordmcount and

After verifying this works, other archs can add:

 HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD

in its Kconfig and it will use the C version of recordmcount
instead of the perl version.

3e3c486012 x86, olpc: Rework BIOS signature check
The XO-1.5 laptop is not currently detected as an OLPC machine because
it fails this XO-1-centric check.

Now that we have OLPC OFW support in the kernel, a more sensible
check is to see if we found OFW during boot and check the architecture
property.

Also remove a now-meaningless codepath, as we're always going to have
OFW support with OLPC.

72d7c3b33c x86: Use memblock to replace early_res
1. replace find_e820_area with memblock_find_in_range
2. replace reserve_early with memblock_x86_reserve_range
3. replace free_early with memblock_x86_free_range.
4. NO_BOOTMEM will switch to use memblock too.
5. use _e820, _early wrap in the patch, in following patch, will
   replace them all
6. because memblock_x86_free_range support partial free, we can remove some special care
7. Need to make sure that memblock_find_in_range() is called after memblock_x86_fill()
   so adjust some calling later in setup.c::setup_arch()
   -- corruption_check and mptable_update

-v2: Move reserve_brk() early
    Before fill_memblock_area, to avoid overlap between brk and memblock_find_in_range()
    that could happen We have more then 128 RAM entry in E820 tables, and
    memblock_x86_fill() could use memblock_find_in_range() to find a new place for
    memblock.memory.region array.
    and We don't need to use extend_brk() after fill_memblock_area()
    So move reserve_brk() early before fill_memblock_area().
-v3: Move find_smp_config early
    To make sure memblock_find_in_range not find wrong place, if BIOS doesn't put mptable
    in right place.
-v4: Treat RESERVED_KERN as RAM in memblock.memory. and they are already in
    memblock.reserved already..
    use __NOT_KEEP_MEMBLOCK to make sure memblock related code could be freed later.
-v5: Generic version __memblock_find_in_range() is going from high to low, and for 32bit
    active_region for 32bit does include high pages
    need to replace the limit with memblock.default_alloc_limit, aka get_max_mapped()
-v6: Use current_limit instead
-v7: check with MEMBLOCK_ERROR instead of -1ULL or -1L
-v8: Set memblock_can_resize early to handle EFI with more RAM entries
-v9: update after kmemleak changes in mainline

d0cd7425fa x86, bios: By default, reserve the low 64K for all BIOSes
The laundry list of BIOSes that need the low 64K reserved is getting
very long, so make it the default across all BIOSes.  This also allows
the code to be simplified and unified with the reservation code for
the first 4K.

This resolves kernel bugzilla 16661 and who knows what else...

9863c90f68 x86, vmware: Remove deprecated VMI kernel support
With the recent innovations in CPU hardware acceleration technologies
from Intel and AMD, VMware ran a few experiments to compare these
techniques to guest paravirtualization technique on VMware's platform.
These hardware assisted virtualization techniques have outperformed the
performance benefits provided by VMI in most of the workloads. VMware
expects that these hardware features will be ubiquitous in a couple of
years, as a result, VMware has started a phased retirement of this
feature from the hypervisor.

Please note that VMI has always been an optimization and non-VMI kernels
still work fine on VMware's platform.
Latest versions of VMware's product which support VMI are,
Workstation 7.0 and VSphere 4.0 on ESX side, future maintainence
releases for these products will continue supporting VMI.

For more details about VMI retirement take a look at this,
http://blogs.vmware.com/guestosguide/2009/09/vmi-retirement.html

This feature removal was scheduled for 2.6.37 back in September 2009.

d7c53c9e82 x86, hotplug: Serialize CPU hotplug to avoid bringup concurrency issues
When testing cpu hotplug code on 32-bit we kept hitting the "CPU%d:
Stuck ??" message due to multiple cores concurrently accessing the
cpu_callin_mask, among others.

Since these codepaths are not protected from concurrent access due to
the fact that there's no sane reason for making an already complex
code unnecessarily more complex - we hit the issue only when insanely
switching cores off- and online - serialize hotplugging cores on the
sysfs level and be done with it.

fd699c7655 x86, olpc: Add support for calling into OpenFirmware
Add support for saving OFW's cif, and later calling into it to run OFW
commands.  OFW remains resident in memory, living within virtual range
0xff800000 - 0xffc00000.  A single page directory entry points to the
pgdir that OFW actually uses, so rather than saving the entire page
table, we grab and install that one entry permanently in the kernel's
page table.

This is currently only used by the OLPC XO.  Note that this particular
calling convention breaks PAE and PAT, and so cannot be used on newer
x86 hardware.

Read the memory ranges behind the Broadcom CNB20LE host bridge out of the

The x86 PCI code automatically prefers the ACPI _CRS information when it is

c01d432330 lockup_detector: Adapt CONFIG_PERF_EVENT_NMI to other archs
CONFIG_PERF_EVENT_NMI is something that need to be enabled from the
arch. This is fine on x86 as PERF_EVENTS is builtin but if other
archs select it, they will need to handle the PERF_EVENTS dependency.

Instead, handle the dependency in the generic layer:

- archs need to tell what they support through HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI
- Enable magically PERF_EVENTS_NMI if we have PERF_EVENTS and
  HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI.

0102752e4c hw-breakpoints: Separate constraint space for data and instruction breakpoints
There are two outstanding fashions for archs to implement hardware
breakpoints.

The first is to separate breakpoint address pattern definition
space between data and instruction breakpoints. We then have
typically distinct instruction address breakpoint registers
and data address breakpoint registers, delivered with
separate control registers for data and instruction breakpoints
as well. This is the case of PowerPc and ARM for example.

The second consists in having merged breakpoint address space
definition between data and instruction breakpoint. Address
registers can host either instruction or data address and
the access mode for the breakpoint is defined in a control
register. This is the case of x86 and Super H.

This patch adds a new CONFIG_HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS config
that archs can select if they belong to the second case. Those
will have their slot allocation merged for instructions and
data breakpoints.

The others will have a separate slot tracking between data and
instruction breakpoints.
