61684ceaad x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init regression
This fixes the regression introduced by commit
42590a7501 ("x86/agp: Fix
agp_amd64_init and agp_amd64_cleanup").

The above commit changes agp_amd64_init() not to do anything if
gart_iommu_aperture is not zero.

If GART iommu calls agp_amd64_init(), we need to skip
agp_amd64_init() when it's called later via module_init.

The problem is that gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init()
with not zero gart_iommu_aperture so agp_amd64_init() is never
initialized.

When gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init(), agp should be
always initialized.

aca3bb5910 x86, UV: Fix RTC latency bug by reading replicated cachelines
For SGI UV node controllers (HUB) rev 2.0 or greater, use
replicated cachelines to read the RTC timer.  This optimization
allows faster simulataneous reads from a given socket.

7036251180 tty: fix race in tty_fasync
We need to keep the lock held over the call to __f_setown() to

Thanks to Al Viro for pointing out the problem, and to Travis for

eeec32a731 nozomi: quick fix for the close/close bug
Nozomi goes wrong if you get the sequence

	open
	open
	close

	[stuff]
	close

which turns out to occur on some ppp type setups.

This is a quick patch up for the problem. It's not really fixing Nozomi
which completely fails to implement tty open/close semantics and all the
other needed stuff. Doing it right is a rather more invasive patch set and
not one that will backport.

f405d2c023.

The above commit fixes the following issue:

  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126192729110083&w=2

However, it doesn't work properly when you remove and insert the
agp_amd64 module again.

agp_amd64_init() and agp_amd64_cleanup should be called only
when gart_iommu is not called earlier (that is, the GART IOMMU
is not enabled). We need to use 'gart_iommu_aperture' to see if
GART IOMMU is enabled or not.

Bail out if we don't find an enclosing IOC.  Previously, if we didn't
find one, we tried to set things up using garbage for the SBA/IOC register
address, which causes a crash.

This crash only happens if firmware supplies a defective ACPI namespace, so
it doesn't fix any problems in the field.

67fe63b071 agp/hp: fixup hp agp after ACPI changes
Commit 15b8dd53f5 changed the string in info->hardware_id from a static
array to a pointer and added a length field.  But instead of changing
"sizeof(array)" to "length", we changed it to "sizeof(length)" (== 4),
which corrupts the string we're trying to null-terminate.

We no longer even need to null-terminate the string, but we *do* need to
check whether we found a HID.  If there's no HID, we used to have an empty
array, but now we have a null pointer.

The combination of these defects causes this oops:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference (address 0000000000000003)
  modprobe[895]: Oops 8804682956800 [1]

3f50b0222e agp: correct missing cleanup on error in agp_add_bridge
While investigating a kmemleak detected leak, I encountered the
agp_add_bridge function.  It appears to be responsible for freeing
the agp_bridge_data in the case of a failure, but it is only doing
so for some errors.

Fix it to always free the bridge data if a failure condition is
encountered.

f405d2c023 x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init() initialization with CONFIG_GART_IOMMU enabled
with CONFIG_GART_IOMMU enabled drivers/char/agp/amd64-agp.c has:

 #ifndef CONFIG_GART_IOMMU
 module_init(agp_amd64_init);
 module_exit(agp_amd64_cleanup);
 #endif

agp_amd64_init() was called via gart_iommu_init with
CONFIG_GART_IOMMU=y agp_amd64_init() was called via module_init
with CONFIG_GART_IOMMU=n

The commit 75f1cdf1dd changes the
x86 dma initialization routine: gart_iommu_init() is called only
when GART IOMMU is detected. So when GART IOMMU isn't detected,
agp_amd64_init isn't called.

Marin Mitov reported this issue:

 http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126192729110083&w=2

With this patch, agp_amd64_init() is always called via
module_init (the above ifndef is removed). If agp_amd64_init()
is called via gart_iommu_init() earlier, agp_amd64_init()
finishes without doing anything (when it is called via
module_init).

27d0567ab6 ACPI: fix ACPI=n allmodconfig build
Today's -tip failed to build because commit
9e368fa011 ("ipmi: add PNP discovery (ACPI
namespace via PNPACPI)") from today's upstream kernel causes the following
build failure on x86, for CONFIG_ACPI=n && CONFIG_IPMI_SI=y:

 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3208: error: 'ipmi_pnp_driver' undeclared (first use in this function)
 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3208: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3208: error: for each function it appears in.)
 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3334: error: 'ipmi_pnp_driver' undeclared (first use in this function)

The reason is that the ipmi_pnp_driver depends on ACPI facilities and is only
made available under ACPI - while the registration and unregistration is made
dependent on CONFIG_PNP:

 #ifdef CONFIG_PNP
 	pnp_register_driver(&ipmi_pnp_driver);
 #endif

The solution is to only register this driver under ACPI. (Also, the CONFIG_PNP
dependency is not needed because pnp_register_driver() is stubbed out in the
!CONFIG_PNP case.)

many constrains.  Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it.
FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles
the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory
resources.

I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use:

 - The API is to simple, important functions are missing
 - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically
 - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not
 - There is no support for data records inside a fifo

So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up
the API to much.  The new API has the following benefits:

 - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver.
 - Provide an API for the most use case.
 - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions.
 - Linux style habit.
 - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros
 - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo.
 - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an
   indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator.
 - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo,
   which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary.
 - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if
   one is required.
 - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported:
   - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size
     field of 1 bytes.
   - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size
     field of 2 bytes.
   - Fixed size records, which no record size field.
 - Preserve memory resource.
 - Performance!
 - Easy to use!

This patch:

Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object,
reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data
structure.  This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init
prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them.  This
patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

f29627c2a3 efirtc: explicitly set llseek to no_llseek
Now that we've removed the BKL here, let's explicitly set llseek to
no_llseek since the default llseek is not used here.

The default_llseek function still contains the BKL.  When we are auditing
code to see if we can remove the BKL, this is one of the hidden
considerations we need to take into account.  i.e., is there
syncronization between code that has the BKL and llseek.

At the same time we remove the BKL it would be a good idea to do indicate
when no llseek function is required, so we don't have to revisit this code
again, when we are trying to determine if we can remove the BKL from the
default_llseek.

4365a5676f oom-kill: fix NUMA constraint check with nodemask
Fix node-oriented allocation handling in oom-kill.c I myself think of this
as a bugfix not as an ehnancement.

In these days, things are changed as
  - alloc_pages() eats nodemask as its arguments, __alloc_pages_nodemask().
  - mempolicy don't maintain its own private zonelists.
  (And cpuset doesn't use nodemask for __alloc_pages_nodemask())

So, current oom-killer's check function is wrong.

This patch does
  - check nodemask, if nodemask && nodemask doesn't cover all
    node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY], this is CONSTRAINT_MEMORY_POLICY.
  - Scan all zonelist under nodemask, if it hits cpuset's wall
    this faiulre is from cpuset.
And
  - modifies the caller of out_of_memory not to call oom if __GFP_THISNODE.
    This doesn't change "current" behavior. If callers use __GFP_THISNODE
    it should handle "page allocation failure" by itself.

  - handle __GFP_NOFAIL+__GFP_THISNODE path.
    This is something like a FIXME but this gfpmask is not used now.

This allows ipmi_si_intf.c to claim IPMI devices described in the ACPI

We look at any SPMI tables before looking for devices in the namespace.

This is based on ipmi_pci_probe().

5ada918b82 vt: introduce and use vt_kmsg_redirect() function
The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to
redirect the kernel messages to a specific console.

However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console
after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic
message on the current console.

This patch series adds a new interface to access the global kmsg_redirect
variable by a function to be able to use it in code where
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set (kernel/panic.c).

This patch:

Instead of using and exporting a global value kmsg_redirect, introduce a
function vt_kmsg_redirect() that both can set and return the console where
messages are printed.

Change all users of kmsg_redirect (the VT code itself and kernel/power.c)
to the new interface.

The main advantage is that vt_kmsg_redirect() can also be used when
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set.

We need to invert the bit position to keep the code behaviour of using the

If there's a failure creating the device (because there's already one with
the same name, for example), the current implementation does not clear the
bit for the allocated minor and that number is lost for future
allocations.

Second, the test currently in misc_deregister is broken, since it does not
test for the 0 minor.
