60ac982139 x86-32: tighten the bound on additional memory to map
Impact: Tighten bound to avoid masking errors

The definition of MAPPING_BEYOND_END was excessive; this has a nasty
tendency to mask bugs.  We have learned over time that this kind of
bug hiding can cause some very strange errors.  Therefore, tighten the
bound to only need to map the actual kernel area.

b8a22a6273 x86-32: remove ALLOCATOR_SLOP from head_32.S
Impact: cleanup

ALLOCATOR_SLOP is a vestigial remain from when we used the
bootmem allocator to allocate the kernel's linear memory mapping.
Now we directly reserve pages from the e820 mapping, and no
longer require secondary structures to keep track of allocated
pages.

c090f532db x86-32: make sure we map enough to fit linear map pagetables
Impact: crash fix

head_32.S needs to map the kernel itself, and enough space so
that mm/init.c can allocate space from the e820 allocator
for the linear map of low memory.

2bd2753ff4 x86: put initial_pg_tables into .bss
Impact: makes vmlinux section information more useful

Don't use ram after _end blindly for pagetables. aka init pages is before _end
put those pg table into .bss

[Adapted to use brk segment - Jeremy]

v2: keep initial page table up to 512M only.
v4: put initial page tables just before _end

796216a57f x86: allow extend_brk users to reserve brk space
Impact: new interface; remove hard-coded limit

Add RESERVE_BRK(name, size) macro to reserve space in the brk
area.  This should be a conservative (ie, larger) estimate of
how much space might possibly be required from the brk area.
Any unused space will be freed, so there's no real downside
on making the reservation too large (within limits).

The name should be unique within a given file, and somewhat
descriptive.

The C definition of RESERVE_BRK() ends up being more complex than
one would expect to work around a cluster of gcc infelicities:

  The first attempt was to simply try putting __section(.brk_reservation)
  on a variable.  This doesn't work because it ends up making it a
  @progbits section, which gets actual space allocated in the vmlinux
  executable.

  The second attempt was to emit the space into a section using asm,
  but gcc doesn't allow arguments to be passed to file-level asm()
  statements, making it hard to pass in the size.

  The final attempt is to wrap the asm() in a function to allow
  it to have arguments, and put the function itself into the
  .discard section, which vmlinux*.lds drops entirely from the
  emitted vmlinux.

ccf3fe02e3 x86-32: use brk segment for allocating initial kernel pagetable
Impact: use new interface instead of previous ad hoc implementation

Rather than having special purpose init_pg_table_start/end variables
to delimit the kernel pagetable built by head_32.S, just use the brk
mechanism to extend the bss for the new pagetable.

This patch removes init_pg_table_start/end and pg0, defines __brk_base
(which is page-aligned and immediately follows _end), initializes
the brk region to start there, and uses it for the 32-bit pagetable.

93dbda7cbc x86: add brk allocation for very, very early allocations
Impact: new interface

Add a brk()-like allocator which effectively extends the bss in order
to allow very early code to do dynamic allocations.  This is better than
using statically allocated arrays for data in subsystems which may never
get used.

The space for brk allocations is in the bss ELF segment, so that the
space is mapped properly by the code which maps the kernel, and so
that bootloaders keep the space free rather than putting a ramdisk or
something into it.

The bss itself, delimited by __bss_stop, ends before the brk area
(__brk_base to __brk_limit).  The kernel text, data and bss is reserved
up to __bss_stop.

Any brk-allocated data is reserved separately just before the kernel
pagetable is built, as that code allocates from unreserved spaces
in the e820 map, potentially allocating from any unused brk memory.
Ultimately any unused memory in the brk area is used in the general
kernel memory pool.

Initially the brk space is set to 1MB, which is probably much larger
than any user needs (the largest current user is i386 head_32.S's code
to build the pagetables to map the kernel, which can get fairly large
with a big kernel image and no PSE support).  So long as the system
has sufficient memory for the bootloader to reserve the kernel+1MB brk,
there are no bad effects resulting from an over-large brk.

b9719a4d9c x86: make section delimiter symbols part of their section

Move the symbols delimiting a section part of the section
(section relative) rather than absolute.  This avoids any
unexpected gaps between the section-start symbol and the first
data in the section, which could be caused by implicit
alignment of the section data.  It also makes the general
form of vmlinux_64.lds.S consistent with vmlinux_32.lds.S.

5e47c478b0 x86: remove zImage support
Impact: obsolete feature removal

The zImage kernel format has been functionally unused for a very long
time.  It is just barely possible to build a modern kernel that still
fits within the zImage size limit, but it is highly unlikely that
anyone ever uses it.  Furthermore, although it is still supported by
most bootloaders, it has been at best poorly tested (or not tested at
all); some bootloaders are even known to not support zImage at all and
not having even noticed.

Also remove some really obsolete constants that no longer have any
meaning.

d801cec70d radeonfb/aty128fb: Disable broken early resume hook for PowerBooks
radeonfb and aty128fb have a special hook called by the PowerMac platform
code very very early on resume from sleep to bring the screen back. This
is useful for debugging wakup problems, but unfortunately, this also became
a source of problems of its own.

The hook is called extremely early, with interrupts still off, and the code
path involved with that code nowadays rely on things like taking mutexes,
GFP_KERNEL allocations, etc...

In addition, the driver now relies on the PCI core to restore the standard
config space before calling resume which doesn't happen with this early
code path.

I'm keeping the code in but commented out along with a fixup call to
pci_restore_state(). The reason is that I still want to make it easy to
re-enable temporarily to track wake up problems, and it's possible that
I can revive it at some stage if we make sleeping things save to call
in early resume using a system state.

In the meantime, this should fix several reported regressions.

187cfc439f hvc_console: Remove tty->low_latency on pseries backends
The hvcs and hvsi backends both set tty->low_latency to one, along
with more or less scary comments regarding bugs or races that would
happen if not doing so.

However, they also both call tty_flip_buffer_push() in conexts where
it's illegal to do so since some recent tty changes (or at least it
may have been illegal always but it nows blows) when low_latency is
set (ie, hard interrupt or with spinlock held and irqs disabled).

This removes the setting for now to get them back to working condition,
we'll have to address the races described in the comments separately
if they are still an issue (some of this might have been fixed already).

16b71fdf97 i810: fix kernel crash fix when struct fb_var_screeninfo is supplied
Prevent the kernel from being crashed by a divide-by-zero operation when
supplied an incorrectly filled 'struct fb_var_screeninfo' from userland.

Previously i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params) was using the global
'yres' symbol previously defined at i810_main.c:145 as a module parameter
value holder (i810_main.c:2174).  If i810fb is compiled-in or if this
param doesn't get a default value, this direct usage leads to a
divide-by-zero at i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params).  The patch simply
replace the 'yres' global, perhaps undefined symbol usage by a given
parameter structure lookup.

This problem occurs with directfb, mplayer -vo fbdev, SDL library.
It was also reported ( but non solved ) at:

There isn't any mcfqspi.h in the tree, and without it everything inside the
#ifdef CONFIG_SPI is uncompilable.

0612ea00a0 rcu: documentation 1Q09 update
Update the RCU documentation to call out the need for callers of
primitives like call_rcu() and synchronize_rcu() to prevent subsequent RCU
readers from hazard.

be50b8342d kernel/user.c: fix a memory leak when freeing up non-init usernamespaces users
We were returning early in the sysfs directory cleanup function if the
user belonged to a non init usernamespace.  Due to this a lot of the
cleanup was not done and we were left with a leak.  Fix the leak.
