We have a case in powerpc in which we want to link some library
routines with all module objects. The routines are intended for
handling out-of-line function call register save/restore so having
them as EXPORT_SYMBOL() is counter productive (we do also need to
link the same "library" code into the kernel).
Without this patch a powerpc build would error out and fail
to build modules with the added register save/restore module.
There were two obvious solutions:
1) To link the .o file before the modpost stage
2) To ignore the symbols in modpost
Option 1) was ruled out because we do not have any separate
linking stage for single file modules.
This patch implements option 2 - and do so only for powerpc.
The symbols we ignore are all undefined symbols named:
_restgpr_*, _savegpr_*, _rest32gpr_*, _save32gpr_*

(overflow means weight >= 2^32 here, because inv_weigh = 2^32/weight)
A weight of a cfs_rq is the sum of weights of which entities
are queued on this cfs_rq, so it will overflow when there are
too many entities.
Although, overflow occurs very rarely, but it break fairness when
it occurs. 64-bits systems have more memory than 32-bit systems
and 64-bit systems can create more process usually, so overflow may
occur more frequently.
This patch guarantees fairness when overflow happens on 64-bit systems.
Thanks to the optimization of compiler, it changes nothing on 32-bit.

I found a bug which can be reproduced by this way:(linux-2.6.26-rc5, x86-64)
(use 2^32, 2^33, ...., 2^63 as shares value)
# mkdir /dev/cpuctl
# mount -t cgroup -o cpu cpuctl /dev/cpuctl
# cd /dev/cpuctl
# mkdir sub
# echo 0x8000000000000000 > sub/cpu.shares
# echo $$ > sub/tasks
oops here! divide by zero.
This is because do_div() expects the 2th parameter to be 32 bits,
but unsigned long is 64 bits in x86_64.
Peter Zijstra pointed it out that the sane thing to do is limit the
shares value to something smaller instead of using an even more
expensive divide.
Also, I found another bug about "the shares value is too large":
pid1 and pid2 are set affinity to cpu#0
pid1 is attached to cg1 and pid2 is attached to cg2
if cg1/cpu.shares = 1024 cg2/cpu.shares = 2000000000
then pid2 got 100% usage of cpu, and pid1 0%
if cg1/cpu.shares = 1024 cg2/cpu.shares = 20000000000
then pid2 got 0% usage of cpu, and pid1 100%
And a weight of a cfs_rq is the sum of weights of which entities
are queued on this cfs_rq, so the shares value should be limited
to a smaller value.
I think that (1UL << 18) is a good limited value:
1) it's not too large, we can create a lot of group before overflow
2) it's several times the weight value for nice=-19 (not too small)

If the RTNL is held when we invoke flush_scheduled_work() we could
deadlock. One such case is linkwatch, it is a work struct which tries
to grab the RTNL semaphore.
The most common case are net driver ->stop() methods. The
simplest conversion is to instead use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync()
explicitly on the various work struct the driver uses.
This is an OK transformation because these work structs are doing
things like resetting the chip, restarting link negotiation, and so
forth. And if we're bringing down the device, we're about to turn the
chip off and reset it anways. So if we cancel a pending work event,
that's fine here.
Some drivers were working around this deadlock by using a msleep()
polling loop of some sort, and those cases are converted to instead
use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync() as well.

We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used
when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor.
Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this
into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and
even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc.
The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent
gcc from performing the transformation.
This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it
to replace the open-coded versions I know about.

Under some conditions, the TXQ ('TX queue being served') bit can clear
before all packets queued for that TX queue have been transmitted.

queues that claim to be idle but still have queued descriptors from

of struct net_device_stats that was never ever written to, only

code in mv643xx_eth to use the statistics in struct net_device
