MOL uses its own hypercall interface to call back into userspace when
the guest wants to do something.
So let's implement that as an exit reason, specify it with a CAP and
only really use it when userspace wants us to.
The only user of it so far is MOL.

Some times we don't want all capabilities to be available to all
our vcpus. One example for that is the OSI interface, implemented
in the next patch.
In order to have a generic mechanism in how to enable capabilities
individually, this patch introduces a new ioctl that can be used
for this purpose. That way features we don't want in all guests or
userspace configurations can just not be enabled and we're good.

With RPS inclusion, skb timestamping is not consistent in RX path.
If netif_receive_skb() is used, its deferred after RPS dispatch.
If netif_rx() is used, its done before RPS dispatch.
This can give strange tcpdump timestamps results.
I think timestamping should be done as soon as possible in the receive
path, to get meaningful values (ie timestamps taken at the time packet
was delivered by NIC driver to our stack), even if NAPI already can
defer timestamping a bit (RPS can help to reduce the gap)
Tom Herbert prefer to sample timestamps after RPS dispatch. In case
sampling is expensive (HPET/acpi_pm on x86), this makes sense.
Let admins switch from one mode to another, using a new
sysctl, /proc/sys/net/core/netdev_tstamp_prequeue
Its default value (1), means timestamps are taken as soon as possible,
before backlog queueing, giving accurate timestamps.
Setting a 0 value permits to sample timestamps when processing backlog,
after RPS dispatch, to lower the load of the pre-RPS cpu.

(Dropped the infiniband part, because Tetsuo modified the related code,
I will send a separate patch for it once this is accepted.)
This patch introduces /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_reserved_ports which
allows users to reserve ports for third-party applications.
The reserved ports will not be used by automatic port assignments
(e.g. when calling connect() or bind() with port number 0). Explicit
port allocation behavior is unchanged.

The set of libata's taskfile access methods is clearly incomplete as
it lacks a method to write to the device control register -- which
forces drivers like 'pata_bf54x' and 'pata_scc' to implement more
"high level" (and more weighty) methods like freeze() and postreset().
So, introduce the optional sff_set_devctl() method which the drivers
only have to implement if the standard iowrite8() can't be used (just
like the existing sff_check_altstatus() method) and make use of it
in the freeze() and postreset() method implementations (I could also
have used it in softreset() method but it also reads other taskfile
registers without using tf_read() making that quite pointless);
this makes freeze() method implementations in the 'pata_bf54x' and
'pata_scc' methods virtually identical to ata_sff_freeze(), so we
can get rid of them completely.

The new nmi_watchdog (which uses the perf event subsystem) is very
similar in structure to the softlockup detector. Using Ingo's
suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file:
kernel/watchdog.c.
Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup
detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every
60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups.
To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I
implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event
overflow event. If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is
most likely in trouble.
To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the
previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires.
If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the
warning is printed to the console.
I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths
work.
V2:
- cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination
- surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI
- seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem
- re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space
- added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases
- removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events
V3:
- comment cleanups
- drop support for older softlockup code
- per_cpu cleanups
- completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector
- use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection
- #ifdef cleanups
- rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR
- documentation additions
V4:
- documentation fixes
- convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var
- powerpc compile fixes
V5:
- split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups
TODO:
- figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call
(if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period

A specialised HID driver for the Creative Prodikeys PC-MIDI USB Keyboard.
The Prodikeys PC-MIDI is a multifunction keyboard comprising a qwerty keyboard,
multimedia keys and a touch sensitive musical keyboard.
The specialised HID driver adds full support for the musical keyboard and extra
multimedia keys which are not currently handled by the default HID driver.
The specialised HID driver interfaces with ALSA, and presents the midi keyboard
as a rawmidi device. Sustain duration, octave shifting and the midi output
channel can be read/written form userspace via sysfs.

Originally, commit d899bf7b ("procfs: provide stack information for
threads") attempted to introduce a new feature for showing where the
threadstack was located and how many pages are being utilized by the
stack.
Commit c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") was
applied to fix the NO_MMU case.
Commit 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on
64-bit") was applied to fix a bug in ia32 executables being loaded.
Commit 9ebd4eba7 ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/stat stack pointer for kernel
threads") was applied to fix a bug which had kernel threads printing a
userland stack address.
Commit 1306d603f ('proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack
information for threads"') was then applied to revert the stack pages
being used to solve a significant performance regression.
This patch nearly undoes the effect of all these patches.
The reason for reverting these is it provides an unusable value in
field 28. For x86_64, a fork will result in the task->stack_start
value being updated to the current user top of stack and not the stack
start address. This unpredictability of the stack_start value makes
it worthless. That includes the intended use of showing how much stack
space a thread has.
Other architectures will get different values. As an example, ia64
gets 0. The do_fork() and copy_process() functions appear to treat the
stack_start and stack_size parameters as architecture specific.
I only partially reverted c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage
on NOMMU") . If I had completely reverted it, I would have had to change
mm/Makefile only build pagewalk.o when CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR is
configured. Since I could not test the builds without significant effort,
I decided to not change mm/Makefile.
I only partially reverted 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack
information for threads on 64-bit") . I left the KSTK_ESP() change in
place as that seemed worthwhile.

I noticed that when I inject a fatal error to an endpoint via
aer-inject, aer_root_reset() is called as reset_link for a
downstream port at upstream of the endpoint:
pcieport 0000:00:06.0: AER: Uncorrected (Fatal) error received: id=5401
:
pcieport 0000:52:02.0: Root Port link has been reset
It externally appears to be working, but internally issues some
accesses to PCI_ERR_ROOT_COMMAND/STATUS registers that is for
root port so not available on downstream port.
This patch introduces default_downstream_reset_link that is
a version of aer_root_reset() with no accesses to root port's
register. It is used for downstream ports that has no reset_link
function its specific.
This patch also updates related description in pcieaer-howto.txt.
Some minor fixes are included.

Create convenience symlinks in sysfs, linking slots to device
functions, and vice versa. These links make it easier for users to
figure out which devices actually live in what slots.
For example:
sapphire:/sys/bus/pci/slots # ls
1 10 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
sapphire:/sys/bus/pci/slots # ls -l 3
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 18 14:10 address
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 18 14:10 function0 ->
../../../../devices/pci0000:23/0000:23:01.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 18 14:10 function1 ->
../../../../devices/pci0000:23/0000:23:01.1
sapphire:/sys/bus/pci/slots # ls -l 3/function0/slot
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 18 14:13 3/function0/slot ->
../../../bus/pci/slots/3
The original form of this patch was written by Matthew Wilcox,
and was enhanced to include links from the sysfs slots/ directory
pointing back at the device functions.

This patch changes the string based list management to a handle base
implementation to help with the hot path use of pm-qos, it also renames
much of the API to use "request" as opposed to "requirement" that was
used in the initial implementation. I did this because request more
accurately represents what it actually does.
Also, I added a string based ABI for users wanting to use a string
interface. So if the user writes 0xDDDDDDDD formatted hex it will be
accepted by the interface. (someone asked me for it and I don't think
it hurts anything.)
This patch updates some documentation input I got from Randy.

Lai Jiangshan noted that up to 10% of the RCU_SOFTIRQ are spurious, and
traced this down to the fact that the current grace-period machinery
will uselessly raise RCU_SOFTIRQ when a given CPU needs to go through
a quiescent state, but has not yet done so. In this situation, there
might well be nothing that RCU_SOFTIRQ can do, and the overhead can be
worth worrying about in the ksoftirqd case. This patch therefore avoids
raising RCU_SOFTIRQ in this situation.
Changes since v1 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/30/122 from Lai Jiangshan):
o Omit the rcu_qs_pending() prechecks, as they aren't that
much less expensive than the quiescent-state checks.
o Merge with the set_need_resched() patch that reduces IPIs.
o Add the new n_rp_report_qs field to the rcu_pending tracing output.
o Update the tracing documentation accordingly.

Instead of the old pcmcia_request_irq() interface, drivers may now
choose between:
- calling request_irq/free_irq directly. Use the IRQ from *p_dev->irq.
- use pcmcia_request_irq(p_dev, handler_t); the PCMCIA core will
clean up automatically on calls to pcmcia_disable_device() or
device ejection.
- drivers still not capable of IRQF_SHARED (or not telling us so) may
use the deprecated pcmcia_request_exclusive_irq() for the time
being; they might receive a shared IRQ nonetheless.

The ESS ES968 chip is nothing more then a PnP companion
for a non-PnP audio chip. It was paired with non-PnP ESS' chips:
ES688 and ES1688. The ESS' audio chips are handled by the es1688
driver in native mode. The PnP cards are handled by the ES968
driver in SB compatible mode.
Move the ES968 chip handling to the es1688 driver so the driver
can handle both PnP and non-PnP cards. The es968 is removed.
Also, a new PnP id is added for the card I acquired (the change
was tested on this card).
