This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
functionality.
While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
the new 'irq chip' abstraction.
The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
(level/edge/etc.) type of details.
This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.
As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
(master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.
The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
and more consolidation between architectures.
We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.
This patch:
rename desc->handler to desc->chip.
Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch. But having
both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
truly is.
I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
frequently.
So lets get over with this quickly. The conversion was done automatically
via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.
This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

The proposed NFS key type uses its own method of passing key requests to
userspace (upcalling) rather than invoking /sbin/request-key. This is
because the responsible userspace daemon should already be running and will
be contacted through rpc_pipefs.
This patch permits the NFS filesystem to pass auxiliary data to the upcall
operation (struct key_type::request_key) so that the upcaller can use a

The recent generic_file_write() deadlock fix caused
generic_file_buffered_write() to loop inifinitely when presented with a
zero-length iovec segment. Fix.
Note that this fix deliberately avoids calling ->prepare_write(),
->commit_write() etc with a zero-length write. This is because I don't trust
all filesystems to get that right.
This is a cautious approach, for 2.6.17.x. For 2.6.18 we should just go ahead
and call ->prepare_write() and ->commit_write() with the zero length and fix
any broken filesystems. So I'll make that change once this code is stabilised
and backported into 2.6.17.x.
The reason for preferring to call ->prepare_write() and ->commit_write() with
the zero-length segment: a zero-length segment _should_ be sufficiently
uncommon that this is the correct way of handling it. We don't want to
optimise for poorly-written userspace at the expense of well-written
userspace.

On some CPUs, bit 4 of section mappings means "update the
cache when written to". On others, this bit is required to
be one, and others it's required to be zero. Finally, on
ARMv6 and above, setting it turns on "no execute" and prevents
speculative prefetches.
With all these combinations, no one value fits all CPUs, so we
have to pick a value depending on the CPU type, and the area
we're mapping.

So the drivers do not use the channel numbers, but some do
use the target numbers. We were just adding some goofy
variable that just increases for the target nr. This is useless
for software iscsi because it is always zero. And for qla4xxx
the target nr is actually the index of the target/session
in its FW or FLASH tables. We needed to expose this to userspace
so apps could access those numbers so this patch just adds the
target nr to the iscsi session creation functions. This way
when qla4xxx's Hw thinks a session is at target nr 4
in its hw, it is exposed as that number in sysfs.

qla4xxx is initialized in two steps like other HW drivers.
It allocates the host, sets up the HW, then adds the host.
For iscsi part of HW setup is setting up persistent iscsi
sessions. At that time, the interupts are off and the driver
is not completely set up so we just want to allocate them.
We do not want to add them to sysfs and expose them to userspace
because userspace could try to do lots of fun things with them
like scanning and at that time the driver is not ready.
So this patch breakes up the session creation like other
functions that use the driver model in two the alloc
and add parts. When the driver is ready, it can then add
the sessions and userspace can begin using them.
This also fixes a bug in the addition error patch where
we forgot to do a get on the session.

iscsi_tcp and iser cannot be rmmod from the kernel when sessions
are running because session removal is driven from userspace. For
those modules we get a module reference when a session is
created then drop it when the session is removed.
For qla4xxx, they can jsut remove the sessions from the pci remove
function like normal HW drivers, so this patch moves the module
reference from the transport class functions shared by all
drivers to the libiscsi functions only used be software iscsi
modules.

Most MMU-based CPUs have a restriction on the setting of the data cache
enable and mmu enable bits in the control register, whereby if the data
cache is enabled, the MMU must also be enabled. Enabling the data
cache without the MMU is an invalid combination.
However, there are CPUs where the data cache can be enabled without the
MMU.
In order to allow these CPUs to take advantage of that, provide a
method whereby each proc-*.S file defines the control regsiter value
for use with nommu (with the MMU disabled.) Later on, when we add
support for enabling the MMU on these devices, we can adjust the
"crval" macro to also enable the data cache for nommu.

If a machine checks interrupts the external or the i/o interrupt
handler before they have completed the cpu time calculations, the
accounting goes wrong. After the cpu returned from the machine check
handler to the interrupted interrupt handler, a negative cpu time delta
can occur. If the accumulated cpu time in lowcore is small enough
this value can get negative as well. The next jiffy interrupt will pick
up that negative value, shift it by 12 and add the now huge positive
value to the cpu time of the process.
To solve this the machine check handler is modified not to change any
of the timestamps in the lowcore if the machine check interrupted kernel
context.
