I noticed that sysctl_check.o was the largest object file in a allnoconfig build in kernel/*. 36243 0 0 36243 8d93 kernel/sysctl_check.o This is because it was default y and && EMBEDDED. But I don't really see a need for a non kernel developer to have their sysctls checked all the time. So move the Kconfig into the kernel debugging section and also drop the default y and the EMBEDDED check.

The exported copy of videodev2.h contains this line: #define #include <sys/time.h> This is because for some reason it defines __user for itself -- despite the fact that we remove all instances of __user when exporting headers. _All_ pointers in userspace are user pointers. Fix it by removing the unnecessary '#define __user' from the file. The new headers ivtv.h and ivtvfb.h would have the same problem... if whoever put them there had actually remembered to add them to the Kbuild file while he was at it. Fix those too, and export them as was presumably intended. Note that includes of <linux/compiler.h> are also stripped by the header export process, so those don't need to be conditional.

The newly introduced "lcd_conn" field for connected LCD panel type will cause the original code to generate the warnings of incorrect lccr*. This is unnecessary since well encoded LCD_* flags will not generate incorrect combinition of lccr* bits. Skip the check if "lcd_conn" is specified.

With gcc 4.3 and later, a pointer that has already been dereferenced is assumed not to be null since it should have caused a segmentation fault otherwise, hence any subsequent test against NULL is optimized away. Current inline asm constraint used in the implementation of prefetch() makes gcc believe that the pointer is dereferenced even though the PLD instruction does not load any data and does not cause a segmentation fault on null pointers, which causes all sorts of interesting results when reaching the end of a linked lists for example. Let's use a better constraint to properly represent the actual usage of the pointer value. Problem reported by Chris Steel.

Instead. it should check for latency requirement on each idle call, and demote to appropriate C-state when there is a latency requirement change.

There is a bug in menu governor where we have if (data->elapsed_us < data->elapsed_us + measured_us) with measured_us already having elapsed_us added in tickless case here unsigned int measured_us = cpuidle_get_last_residency(dev) + data->elapsed_us; Also, it should be last_residency, not measured_us, that need to be used to do comparing and distinguish between expected & non-expected events. Refactor menu_reflect() to fix these two problems.

poll_idle was added to CPUIDLE, just as a low latency idle handler, to be used in cases when user desires CPUs not to enter any idle state at all. It was supposed to be a run time idle=poll option to the user. But, it was indeed getting used during normal menu and ladder governor default case, with no special user setting (Reported by Linus Torvalds). Change below ensures that poll_idle will not be used unless user explicitly asks pm_qos infrastructure for zero latency requirement.

Not all AMD K8 have 6 VID pins, contrary to what was assumed in commit 116d0486. This commit broke support of older CPU models which have only 5 VID pins: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11329 We need two entries in the hwmon-vid table, one for 5-bit VID models (K8 revision <= E) and one for 6-bit VID models (K8 revision >= F).

as per this discussion: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/423 Pardo reported that 64-bit threaded apps, if their stacks exceed the combined size of ~4GB, slow down drastically in pthread_create() - because glibc uses MAP_32BIT to allocate the stacks. The use of MAP_32BIT is a legacy hack - to speed up context switching on certain early model 64-bit P4 CPUs. So introduce a new flag to be used by glibc instead, to not constrain 64-bit apps like this. glibc can switch to this new flag straight away - it will be ignored by the kernel. If those old CPUs ever matter to anyone, support for it can be implemented.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x17a3e): Section mismatch in reference from the function set_pte_vaddr_pud() to the function .init.text:spp_getpage() The function set_pte_vaddr_pud() references the function __init spp_getpage(). This is often because set_pte_vaddr_pud lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of spp_getpage is wrong. spp_getpage is called from __init (__init_extra_mapping) and non __init (set_pte_vaddr_pud) functions, so it can't be __init. Unfortunately it calls alloc_bootmem_pages which is __init, but does it only when bootmem allocator is available (after_bootmem == 0). So annotate it accordingly.
