sched: min_vruntime fix
Current min_vruntime tracking is incorrect and will cause serious
problems when we don't run the leftmost task for some reason.
min_vruntime does two things; 1) it's used to determine a forward
direction when the u64 vruntime wraps, 2) it's used to track the
leftmost vruntime to position newly enqueued tasks from.
The current logic advances min_vruntime whenever the current task's
vruntime advance. Because the current task may pass the leftmost task
still waiting we're failing the second goal. This causes new tasks to be
placed too far ahead and thus penalizes their runtime.
Fix this by making min_vruntime the min_vruntime of the waiting tasks by
tracking it in enqueue/dequeue, and compare against current's vruntime
to obtain the absolute minimum when placing new tasks.

Fix a hard to trigger crash seen in the -rt kernel that also affects
the vanilla scheduler.
There is a race condition between schedule() and some dequeue/enqueue
functions; rt_mutex_setprio(), __setscheduler() and sched_move_task().
When scheduling to idle, idle_balance() is called to pull tasks from
other busy processor. It might drop the rq lock. It means that those 3
functions encounter on_rq=0 and running=1. The current task should be
put when running.
The current process of CPU1(P1) is scheduling. Deactivated P1, and the
scheduler looks for another process on other CPU's runqueue because CPU1
will be idle. idle_balance(), load_balance_newidle() and
double_lock_balance() are called and double_lock_balance() could drop
the rq lock. On the other hand, CPU0 is trying to boost the priority of
P1. The result of boosting only P1's prio and sched_class are changed to
RT. The sched entities of P1 and P1's group are never put. It makes
cfs_rq invalid, because the cfs_rq has curr and no leaf, but
pick_next_task_fair() is called, then the kernel panics.

failure of a kmalloc(). After that commit it could be triggered by a

The result is a struct svc_export with a reference count one too low,

firewire: fw-sbp2: set single-phase retry_limit
Per the SBP-2 specification, all SBP-2 target devices must have a BUSY_TIMEOUT
register. Per the 1394-1995 specification, the retry_limt portion of the
register should be set to 0x0 initially, and set on the target by a logged in
initiator (i.e., a Linux host w/firewire controller(s)).
Well, as it turns out, lots of devices these days have actually moved on to
starting to implement SBP-3 compliance, which says that retry_limit should
default to 0xf instead (yes, SBP-3 stomps directly on 1394-1995, oops).
Prior to this change, the firewire driver stack didn't touch retry_limit, and
any SBP-3 compliant device worked fine, while SBP-2 compliant ones were unable
to retransmit when the host returned an ack_busy_X, which resulted in stalled
out I/O, eventually causing the SCSI layer to give up and offline the device.
The simple fix is for us to set retry_limit to 0xf in the register for all
devices (which actually matches what the old ieee1394 stack did).
Prior to this change, a hard disk behind an SBP-2 Prolific PL-3507 bridge chip
would routinely encounter buffer I/O errors and wind up offlined by the SCSI
layer. With this change, I've encountered zero I/O failures moving tens of GB

Thanks to Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@gmx.de> for reporting
the problem, and to Linus for poking me to get me to believe that it was
a real problem.
The dst member nfheader_len is only used by IPv6. It's also currently
creating a rather ugly alignment hole in struct dst. Therefore this patch
moves it from there into struct rt6_info.
Above patch changes the cache line alignment, especially member
__refcnt. I did a testing by adding 2 unsigned long pading before
lastuse, so the 3 members, lastuse/__refcnt/__use, are moved to next
cache line. The performance is recovered.
I created a patch to rearrange the members in struct dst_entry.
With Eric and Valdis Kletnieks's suggestion, I made finer arrangement.
1) Move tclassid under ops in case CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y. So
sizeof(dst_entry)=200 no matter if CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y/n. I
tested many patches on my 16-core tigerton by moving tclassid to
different place. It looks like tclassid could also have impact on
performance. If moving tclassid before metrics, or just don't move
tclassid, the performance isn't good. So I move it behind metrics.
2) Add comments before __refcnt.
On 16-core tigerton:
If CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y, the result with below patch is about 18%
better than the one without the patch;
If CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=n, the result with below patch is about 30%

With 32bit 2.6.25-rc1 on 8-core stoakley, the new patch doesn't
introduce regression.

[POWERPC] Fix large hash table allocation on Cell blades
My recent hack to allocate the hash table under 1GB on cell was poorly
tested, *cough*. It turns out on blades with large amounts of memory we
fail to allocate the hash table at all. This is because RTAS has been
instantiated just below 768MB, and 0-x MB are used by the kernel,
leaving no areas that are both large enough and also naturally-aligned.
For the cell IOMMU hack the page tables must be under 2GB, so use that
as the limit instead. This has been tested on real hardware and boots
happily.

The empty_zero_page symbol is exported by most other architectures
(s390, ia64, x86, um), and an upcoming ext4 patch needs it because
ZERO_PAGE() references empty_zero_page, and we need it to zero out an
unitialized extents in ext4 files.

[POWERPC] Fix viodasd driver with scatterlist debug
The iSeries viodasd drivers does some very strange things with
scatterlists, one of these causing a BUG_ON to trigger when
scatterlist debugging is enabled due to initializing the
scatterlist with memset instead of sg_init_table().
This fixes it by using sg_init_table(). The rest of the stuff
it does to that poor list is still pretty awful but it will work.
I may look into fixing things in a nicer way some other time.

The PMU backlight code would kick in during sleep/resume even on
machines that use a different backlight method. This breaks
sleep on some PowerBooks.
This fixes it by adding a flag to indicate whether the backlight
is controlled by the PMU, and testing that before trying to use
the PMU to turn off the backlight during sleep.

[POWERPC] Fix bogus test for unassigned PCI resources
A bogus test for unassigned resources that came from our 32-bit
PCI code ended up being "merged" by my previous patch series,
breaking some 64-bit setups where devices have legal resources
ending at 0xffffffff.
This fixes it by completely changing the test. We now test for
res->start == 0, as the generic code expects, and we also only
do so on platforms that don't have the PPC_PCI_PROBE_ONLY flag
set, as there are cases of pSeries and iSeries where it could
be a valid value and those can't reassign devices.

The pattern substitution rules were failing when used with zImage-dtb

By not using the zImage prefix then is no potential for namespace

[POWERPC] Add __ucmpdi2 for 64-bit comparisons in 32-bit kernels
Some drivers (such as V4L2) have code that causes gcc to generate

in either a link-time error or a module that can't be loaded, as
we don't currently have a __ucmpdi2. This adds one so these drivers

PNP: disable PNP motherboard resources that overlap PCI BARs
Some BIOSes have PNP motherboard devices with resources that
partially overlap PCI BARs. The PNP system driver claims these
motherboard resources, which prevents the normal PCI driver from
requesting them later.
This patch disables the PNP resources that conflict with PCI BARs
so they won't be claimed by the PNP system driver.
Of course, this only works if PCI devices have already been enumerated.
Currently this is the case because PCI devices are discovered before
any PNP init via this path:
