4d000d5b96 [SPARC64]: Mark __ex_table section correctly.
We must use the "a" (allocate) attribute every time we
emit an entry into the __ex_table section.

For consistency, use "a" instead of #alloc which is some
Solaris compat cruft GNU as provides on Sparc.

add2b6fdae Make Kprobes depend on modules
Commit 9ec4b1f356 made kprobes not compile

Also, since it's marked EXPERIMENTAL, make that dependency explicit too.

7abea92145 [SPARC64]: Make cpu_present_map available earlier.
The change to kernel/sched.c's init code to use for_each_cpu()
requires that the cpu_possible_map be setup much earlier.

Set it up via setup_arch(), constrained to NR_CPUS, and later
constrain it to max_cpus in smp_prepare_cpus().

This fixes SMP booting on sparc64.

5590ff0d55 [PATCH] vfs: *at functions: core
Here is a series of patches which introduce in total 13 new system calls
which take a file descriptor/filename pair instead of a single file
name.  These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous
occasions.  They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,
they are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working
directory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.

We have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the
/proc/self/fd magic.  But this code is rather expensive.  Here are some
results (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).

The test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem.  Then
rm -fr is used to remove all directories.  Without syscall support I get
this:

real    0m31.921s
user    0m0.688s
sys     0m31.234s

With syscall support the results are much better:

real    0m20.699s
user    0m0.536s
sys     0m20.149s

The interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used.  But they'll
be used.  coreutils (and Jeff's posixutils) are already using them.
Furthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using
them.  I expect a patch to make follow soon.  Every program which is walking
the filesystem tree will benefit.

9eb3394bf2 [SPARC64]: Eliminate race condition reading Hummingbird STICK register
Ensure a consistent value is read from the STICK register by ensuring
that both high and low are read without high changing due to a roll
over of the low register.

Various Debian/SPARC users (myself include) have noticed problems with
Hummingbird based systems. The symptoms are that the system time is
seen to jump forward 3 days, 6 hours, 11 minutes give or take a few
seconds. In many cases the system then hangs some time afterwards.

I've spotted a race condition in the code to read the STICK register.
I could not work out why 3d, 6h, 11m is important but guess that it is
due to the 2^32 jump of STICK (forwards on one read and then the next
read will seem to be backwards) during a timer interrupt. I'm guessing
that a change of -2^32 will get converted to a large unsigned
increment after the arithmetic manipulation between STICK,
nanoseconds, jiffies etc.

I did a test where I modified __hbird_read_stick to artificially
inject rollover faults forcefully every few seconds. With this I saw
the clock jump over 6 times in 12 hours compared to once every month
or so.

eb3a72921c [PATCH] kprobes: fix race in recovery of reentrant probe
There is a window where a probe gets removed right after the probe is hit
on some different cpu.  In this case probe handlers can't find a matching
probe instance related to break address.  In this case we need to read the
original instruction at break address to see if that is not a break/int3
instruction and recover safely.

Previous code had a bug where we were not checking for the above race in
case of reentrant probes and the below patch fixes this race.

Tested on IA64, Powerpc, x86_64.

e6a6d2efcb [PATCH] sanitize building of fs/compat_ioctl.c
Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can
build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft.  We need a
special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done.
This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures.  Also remove some
superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c

Tested on ppc64.

[1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct
    for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd
    kick in for all netdevice users.  We can introduce a proper handler
    in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to
    struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't
    compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this
    patchset.

f3d48f0373 [PATCH] unpaged: fix sound Bad page states
Earlier I unifdefed PageCompound, so that snd_pcm_mmap_control_nopage and
others can give out a 0-order component of a higher-order page, which won't
be mistakenly freed when zap_pte_range unmaps it.  But many Bad page states
reported a PG_reserved was freed after all: I had missed that we need to
say __GFP_COMP to get compound page behaviour.

Some of these higher-order pages are allocated by snd_malloc_pages, some by
snd_malloc_dev_pages; or if SBUS, by sbus_alloc_consistent - but that has
no gfp arg, so add __GFP_COMP into its sparc32/64 implementations.

zap_pte_range, without changing those drivers not to set it: so their pages
just leak away.

Let's not change miscellaneous drivers now: introduce VM_UNPAGED at the core,
to flag the special areas where the ptes may have no struct page, or if they
have then it's not to be touched.  Replace most instances of VM_RESERVED in
core mm by VM_UNPAGED.  Force it on in remap_pfn_range, and the sparc and
sparc64 io_remap_pfn_range.

Revert addition of VM_RESERVED to powerpc vdso, it's not needed there.  Is it
needed anywhere?  It still governs the mm->reserved_vm statistic, and special
vmas not to be merged, and areas not to be core dumped; but could probably be
eliminated later (the drivers are probably specifying it because in 2.4 it
kept swapout off the vma, but in 2.6 we work from the LRU, which these pages
don't get on).

Use the VM_SHM slot for VM_UNPAGED, and define VM_SHM to 0: it serves no
purpose whatsoever, and should be removed from drivers when we clean up.
