Currently, oprofile fails silently on platforms where a non-OS entity
such as the system firmware "enables" and uses a performance
counter. There is a warning in the code for this case.
The warning indicates an already running counter. If oprofile doesn't
collect data, then try using a different performance counter on your
platform to monitor the desired event. Delete the counter from the
desired event by editing the
/usr/share/oprofile/<cpu_type>/<cpu>/events
file. If the event cannot be monitored by any other counter, contact
your hardware or BIOS vendor.

IBS selects an op (execution operation) for sampling by counting
either cycles or dispatched ops. Better statistical samples can be
produced by adding a software generated random offset to the periodic
op counter value with each sample.
This patch adds software randomization to the IBS periodic op
counter. The lower 12 bits of the 20 bit counter are
randomized. IbsOpCurCnt is initialized with a 12 bit random value.
There is a work around if the hw can not write to IbsOpCurCnt. Then
the lower 8 bits of the 16 bit IbsOpMaxCnt [15:0] value are randomized
in the range of -128 to +127 by adding/subtracting an offset to the
maximum count (IbsOpMaxCnt).
The linear feedback shift register (LFSR) algorithm is used for
pseudo-random number generation to have low impact to the memory
system.

This patch implements a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) for
pseudo-random number generation for IBS.
For IBS measurements it would be good to minimize memory traffic in
the interrupt handler since every access pollutes the data
caches. Computing a maximal period LFSR just needs shifts and ORs.
The LFSR method is good enough to randomize the ops at low
overhead. 16 pseudo-random bits are enough for the implementation and
it doesn't matter that the pattern repeats with a fairly short
cycle. It only needs to break up (hard) periodic sampling behavior.
The logic was designed by Paul Drongowski.

This patch adds IBS feature detection using cpuid flags. An IBS
capability mask is introduced to test for certain IBS features. The
bit mask is the same as for IBS cpuid feature flags (Fn8000_001B_EAX),
but bit 0 is used to indicate the existence of IBS.
The patch also changes the handling of the IbsOpCntCtl bit (periodic
op counter count control). The oprofilefs file for this feature
(ibs_op/dispatched_ops) will be only exposed if the feature is
available, also the default for the bit is set to count clock cycles.
In general, the userland can detect the availability of a feature by
checking for the corresponding file in oprofilefs. If it exists, the
feature also exists. This may lead to a dynamic file layout depending
on the cpu type with that the userland has to deal with. Current
opcontrol is compatible.

Standard AMD systems have the same number of nodes as there are
northbridge devices. However, there may kernel configurations
(especially for 32 bit) or system setups exist, where the node number
is different or it can not be detected properly. Thus the check is not
reliable and may fail though IBS setup was fine. For this reason it is
better to remove the check.

This patch solves a corner case during allocation which occurs if both
metadata (indirect) and data blocks are required but there is an
obstacle in the filesystem (e.g. a resource group header or another
allocated block) such that when the allocation is requested only
enough blocks for the metadata are returned.
By changing the exit condition of this loop, we ensure that a
minimum of one data block will always be returned.

This fixes a bug caused by b6a2fea393 ("mm:
variable length argument support") and unmasked by
fc63cf2370 ("exec: setup_arg_pages() fails
to return errors").
This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg.
80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before
they start. This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below
1280K will kill every process.
To test, do:
'ulimit -s 15; ls'
before and after the patch is applied. Before it's applied, 'ls' should
be killed. After the patch is applied, 'ls' should no longer be killed.
A stack limit of 15KB since it's small enough to trigger 20*PAGE_SIZE.
Also 15KB not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which is a trickier case to handle
correctly with this code.
4K pages should be fine to test with.

This patch fixes a bug in the multiblock write tests where the written
data is read back for verifying one block at a time. The tests in
mmc_test assumes that all cards are byte addressable.
This will cause the multi block write tests to fail, leading the user of
the mmc_test driver thinking there is something wrong with the sdhci
driver they are testing.
The start address for the block is calculated as: blocknum * 512. For
block addressable cards the blocknum alone should be used.

This patch corrects a userspace pointer dereference in the VGA arbiter
in 2.6.32.1.
copy_from_user() is used at line 822 to copy the contents of buf into
kbuf, but a call to strncmp() on line 964 uses buf rather than kbuf. This
problem led to a GPF in strncmp() when X was started on my x86_32 systems.
X triggered the behavior with a write of "target PCI:0000:01:00.0" to
/dev/vga_arbiter.
The patch has been tested against 2.6.32.1 and observed to correct the GPF
observed when starting X or manually writing the string "target
PCI:0000:01:00.0" to /dev/vga_arbiter.
