f0ced9b229 power management: change /sys/power/disk display
Change /sys/power/disk to display all valid modes as well as the currently
selected one in a fashion known from the LED subsystem.

This changes userspace API, but it is apparently not used much (we asked
some userspace developers)

1394f03221 blackfin architecture
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix!  Tinyboards.

The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc.  (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000.  Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices.  The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set.  It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.

The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf

The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibc

This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/

We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
be found at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel

2b744c01a5 mm: fix handling of panic_on_oom when cpusets are in use
The current panic_on_oom may not work if there is a process using
cpusets/mempolicy, because other nodes' memory may remain.  But some people
want failover by panic ASAP even if they are used.  This patch makes new
setting for its request.

This is tested on my ia64 box which has 3 nodes.

b813e931b4 smaps: add clear_refs file to clear reference
Adds /proc/pid/clear_refs.  When any non-zero number is written to this file,
pte_mkold() and ClearPageReferenced() is called for each pte and its
corresponding page, respectively, in that task's VMAs.  This file is only
writable by the user who owns the task.

It is now possible to measure _approximately_ how much memory a task is using
by clearing the reference bits with

	echo 1 > /proc/pid/clear_refs

and checking the reference count for each VMA from the /proc/pid/smaps output
at a measured time interval.  For example, to observe the approximate change
in memory footprint for a task, write a script that clears the references
(echo 1 > /proc/pid/clear_refs), sleeps, and then greps for Pgs_Referenced and
extracts the size in kB.  Add the sizes for each VMA together for the total
referenced footprint.  Moments later, repeat the process and observe the
difference.

For example, using an efficient Mozilla:

	accumulated time		referenced memory
	----------------		-----------------
		 0 s				 408 kB
		 1 s				 408 kB
		 2 s				 556 kB
		 3 s				1028 kB
		 4 s				 872 kB
		 5 s				1956 kB
		 6 s				 416 kB
		 7 s				1560 kB
		 8 s				2336 kB
		 9 s				1044 kB
		10 s				 416 kB

This is a valuable tool to get an approximate measurement of the memory
footprint for a task.

6179b5562d add new_id to PCMCIA drivers
PCI drivers have the new_id file in sysfs which allows new IDs to be added
at runtime.  The advantage is to avoid re-compilation of a driver that
works for a new device, but it's ID table doesn't contain the new device.
This mechanism is only meant for testing, after the driver has been tested
successfully, the ID should be added in source code so that new revisions
of the kernel automatically detect the device.

The implementation follows the PCI implementation. The interface is documented
in Documentation/pcmcia/driver.txt. Computations should be done in userspace,
so the sysfs string contains the raw structure members for matching.

These helper functions are a leftover from 2.4 sync I/O and are a
notorious source for bugs. They lead to device driver specific code
creeping into cio, and some issues can't really be fixed at all.

Device drivers can easily implement those functions themselves in a
more robust manner, so let's get rid of them.

6ba186361e PCI: Require vendor and device for new_id
Currently, there is no minimum number of fields required when adding
a new device ID to a PCI driver through the new_id sysfs file. It is
possible to add a new ID with only the vendor ID set, causing the
driver to attempt to attach to all PCI devices from that vendor. This
has been reported to happen accidentally:
  http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2007-March/019366.html
It is even possible to not even set the vendor ID field, causing the
driver to attempt to attach to _all_ the PCI devices.

This sounds dangerous and I fail to see any valid use of this
"feature". Thus I suggest that we now require at least the first two
fields (vendor ID and device ID) to be set. For what it's worth, this
is what the USB subsystem does.

e711db3edf kbuild: fix make mrproper for Documentation/DocBook/man
"make mandocs" generate > 2000 files in Documentation/DocBook/man
and this caused kbuild to barf out during make mrproper like this:

make -f scripts/Makefile.clean obj=Documentation/DocBook
make -f scripts/Makefile.clean obj=Documentation/DocBook/man/
make[2]: execvp: /bin/sh: Argument list too long
make[2]: *** [__clean] Error 127
make[1]: *** [Documentation/DocBook/man/] Error 2
make: *** [_mrproper_Documentation/DocBook] Error 2

The man directory were solely used for output
so the fix is to remove it entirely during the
make mrproper process.

8a336b0a4b [PATCH] x86-64: Dynamically adjust machine check interval
Background:
 We've found that MCEs (specifically DRAM SBEs) tend to come in bunches,
 especially when we are trying really hard to stress the system out.  The
 current MCE poller uses a static interval which does not care whether it
 has or has not found MCEs recently.

Description:
 This patch makes the MCE poller adjust the polling interval dynamically.
 If we find an MCE, poll 2x faster (down to 10 ms).  When we stop finding
 MCEs, poll 2x slower (up to check_interval seconds).  The check_interval
 tunable becomes the max polling interval.  The "Machine check events
 logged" printk() is rate limited to the check_interval, which should be
 identical behavior to the old functionality.

Result:
 If you start to take a lot of correctable errors (not exceptions), you
 log them faster and more accurately (less chance of overflowing the MCA
 registers).  If you don't take a lot of errors, you will see no change.

Alternatives:
 I considered simply reducing the polling interval to 10 ms immediately
 and keeping it there as long as we continue to find errors.  This felt a
 bit heavy handed, but does perform significantly better for the default
 check_interval of 5 minutes (we're using a few seconds when testing for
 DRAM errors).  I could be convinced to go with this, if anyone felt it
 was not too aggressive.

Testing:
 I used an error-injecting DIMM to create lots of correctable DRAM errors
 and verified that the polling interval accelerates.  The printk() only
 happens once per check_interval seconds.

Patch:
 This patch is against 2.6.21-rc7.

1dbf527c51 [PATCH] i386: Make COMPAT_VDSO runtime selectable.
Now that relocation of the VDSO for COMPAT_VDSO users is done at
runtime rather than compile time, it is possible to enable/disable
compat mode at runtime.

This patch allows you to enable COMPAT_VDSO mode with "vdso=2" on the
kernel command line, or via sysctl.  (Switching on a running system
shouldn't be done lightly; any process which was relying on the compat
VDSO will be upset if it goes away.)

The COMPAT_VDSO config option still exists, but if enabled it just
makes vdso_enabled default to VDSO_COMPAT.

+From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>

Fix oops from i386-make-compat_vdso-runtime-selectable.patch.

Even mingetty at system startup finds it easy to trigger an oops
while reading /proc/PID/maps: though it has a good hold on the mm
itself, that cannot stop exit_mm() from resetting tsk->mm to NULL.

(It is usually show_map()'s call to get_gate_vma() which oopses,
and I expect we could change that to check priv->tail_vma instead;
but no matter, even m_start()'s call just after get_task_mm() is racy.)

8f9aeca7a0 [PATCH] x86: add command line length to boot protocol
Because the command line is increased to 2048 characters after 2.6.21, it's
not possible for boot loaders and userspace tools to determine the length
of the command line the kernel can understand.  The benefit of knowing the
length is that users can be warned if the command line size is too long
which prevents surprise if things don't work after bootup.

This patch updates the boot protocol to contain a field called
"cmdline_size" that contain the length of the command line (excluding the
terminating zero).

The patch also adds missing fields (of protocol version 2.05) to the x86_64
setup code.

memory into nodes of fixed size.  Any leftover memory is allocated to a final

			memory is split into nodes of 128M each.

This is beneficial for systems where the exact size of RAM is unknown or not
necessarily relevant, but the size of the remaining nodes to be allocated is
known based on their capacity for resource management.

8b8ca80e19 [PATCH] x86-64: configurable fake numa node sizes
Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to allow for configurable
node sizes.  These nodes can be used in conjunction with cpusets for coarse
memory resource management.

The old command-line option is still supported:
  numa=fake=32	gives 32 fake NUMA nodes, ignoring the NUMA setup of the
		actual machine.

But now you may configure your system for the node sizes of your choice:
  numa=fake=2*512,1024,2*256
		gives two 512M nodes, one 1024M node, two 256M nodes, and
		the rest of system memory to a sixth node.

The existing hash function is maintained to support the various node sizes
that are possible with this implementation.

Each node of the same size receives roughly the same amount of available
pages, regardless of any reserved memory with its address range.  The total
available pages on the system is calculated and divided by the number of equal
nodes to allocate.  These nodes are then dynamically allocated and their
borders extended until such time as their number of available pages reaches
the required size.

Configurable node sizes are recommended when used in conjunction with cpusets
for memory control because it eliminates the overhead associated with scanning
the zonelists of many smaller full nodes on page_alloc().

* i2c-isa is deprecated and soon gone, so stop advertising it.
* Drop many sensors-specific references. Most of them were outdated
  anyway.
* Update the example code to reflect the recent and not-so-recent
  API and coding style preference changes.
* Simplify the example init and cleanup functions.

This should make things less complex to understand for newcomers.

The same change must be mirrored to i2c-isa as it duplicates some
of the i2c-core functionalities.

User-space tools and libraries might need some adjustments. In
particular, libsensors from lm_sensors 2.10.3 or later is required for
proper discovery of i2c adapter names after this change.
