Fix deadlock problem in 2.6.27 caused by new USB core behavior in
response to a USB device reset request. With older kernels, the USB
device reset was "in line"; the reset simply took place and the driver
retained its association with the hardware. However now this reset
triggers a disconnect, and worse still the disconnect callback happens
in the context of the caller who asked for the device reset. This
results in an attempt by the pvrusb2 driver to recursively take a
mutex it already has, which deadlocks the driver's worker thread.
(Even if the disconnect callback were to happen on a different thread
we'd still have problems however - because while the driver should
survive and correctly disconnect / reconnect, it will then trigger
another device reset during the repeated initialization, which will
then cause another disconect, etc, forever.) The fix here is simply
to not attempt the device reset (it was of marginal value anyway).

/* Take cpucontrol mutex to protect against CPU hotplug */
mutex_lock(&rcu_barrier_mutex);
init_completion(&rcu_barrier_completion);
atomic_set(&rcu_barrier_cpu_count, 0);
/*
* The queueing of callbacks in all CPUs must be atomic with
* respect to RCU, otherwise one CPU may queue a callback,
* wait for a grace period, decrement barrier count and call
* complete(), while other CPUs have not yet queued anything.
* So, we need to make sure that grace periods cannot complete
* until all the callbacks are queued.
*/
rcu_read_lock();
on_each_cpu(rcu_barrier_func, (void *)RCU_BARRIER_BH, 1);
rcu_read_unlock();
wait_for_completion(&rcu_barrier_completion);
mutex_unlock(&rcu_barrier_mutex);
}
The inconsistency of the code and the comments show a bug here.
rcu_read_lock() cannot make sure that "grace periods for RCU_BH
cannot complete until all the callbacks are queued".
it only make sure that race periods for RCU cannot complete
until all the callbacks are queued.
so we must use rcu_read_lock_bh() for rcu_barrier_bh().
like this:
void rcu_barrier_bh(void)
{
......
rcu_read_lock_bh();
on_each_cpu(rcu_barrier_func, (void *)RCU_BARRIER_BH, 1);
rcu_read_unlock_bh();
......
}
and also rcu_barrier() rcu_barrier_sched() are implemented like this.
it will bring a lot of duplicate code. My patch uses another way to
fix this bug, please see the comment of my patch.

If the member 'name' of the irq_desc structure happens to point to a
character string that is resident within a kernel module, problems ensue
if that module is rmmod'd (at which time dynamic_irq_cleanup() is called)
and then later show_interrupts() is called by someone.
It is also not a good thing if the character string resided in kmalloc'd
space that has been kfree'd (after having called dynamic_irq_cleanup()).
dynamic_irq_cleanup() fails to NULL the 'name' member and
show_interrupts() references it on a few architectures (like h8300, sh and
x86).

Commit 9b09c6d909dfd8de96b99b9b9c808b94b0a71614 ("powerpc: Change the
default link address for pSeries zImage kernels") changed the
real-base value in the CHRP note added by addnote to the zImage from
12MB to 32MB. It turns out that this causes unnecessary extra reboots
on old 32-bit CHRP machines. This therefore adds a -r flag to addnote
to allow us to specify what real-base value it should put in the CHRP
note, and adjusts the wrapper script to pass -r c00000 to addnote when
making a zImage for a CHRP machine. Also, CHRP machines ignore the
RPA note, so we don't need to arrange for it to be the same as the
kernel's.

numa_enforce_memory_limit tried to be smart and only call lmb_end_of_DRAM
when a memory limit was set via mem= on the command line. However,
the early boot code will also limit memory added to the lmb system
when iommu=off is specified. When this happens, the page allocator
is given pages not in the linear mapping and this results in a fatal
data reference to the unmapped page.

64 bit powerpc requires the kexec user space tools avoid overwriting
the static kernel image and translation hash table when choosing
where to put memory image data because it copies the data into place
using the kernels virtual memory system. Kexec userspace determines
these and other areas blocked by reading properties the kernel adds,
but does not filter these properties when creating the device tree
for the next kernel.
When the second kernel tries to add its values for these properties,
the export via /proc/device-tree is hidden by the pre-existing but
stale values from the flat tree. Kexec userspace reads the old
property, allocates the new kernel at the old kernel's end, and
gets rejected by the overlap check.
Search and remove these stale properties before adding the new values.

The issue is the SPU code is not holding the kernel mutex lock while
adding samples to the kernel buffer.
This patch creates per SPU buffers to hold the data. Data
is added to the buffers from in interrupt context. The data
is periodically pushed to the kernel buffer via a new Oprofile
function oprofile_put_buff(). The oprofile_put_buff() function
is called via a work queue enabling the funtion to acquire the
mutex lock.
The existing user controls for adjusting the per CPU buffer
size is used to control the size of the per SPU buffers.
Similarly, overflows of the SPU buffers are reported by
incrementing the per CPU buffer stats. This eliminates the
need to have architecture specific controls for the per SPU
buffers which is not acceptable to the OProfile user tool
maintainer.
The export of the oprofile add_event_entry() is removed as it
is no longer needed given this patch.
Note, this patch has not addressed the issue of indexing arrays
by the spu number. This still needs to be fixed as the spu
numbering is not guarenteed to be 0 to max_num_spus-1.

If the vmlinux binary in memory is larger than 4 MiB than it collides
with the initial boot code which is linked at 4 MiB in case of cuBoot.
If the the uncompressed image size (on disk size) is less than 4 MiB
then it would fit. The difference between those two sizes is the bss
section. In cuBoot we have the dtb embedded right after the data
section so it is very likely that the reset of the bss section (in
kernel's start up code) will overwrite the dtb blob. Therefore we
reallocate the dtb. Something similar is allready done to the initrd.

With most file readers (eg cat, dd), reading a context's regs file will
result in two reads: the first to read the data, and the second to
return EOF. Because each read performs a spu_acquire_saved, we end up
descheduling and re-scheduling the context twice.
This change does a simple check to see if we'd return EOF before
calling spu_acquire_saved(), saving the extra schedule operation.
