Move all cpu map initializations to one place (except for the online map -- cpus mark themselves online as they come up). This sets up cpu_possible_map early enough that we can use num_possible_cpus for allocating irqstacks instead of NR_CPUS. Hopefully this should also help set the stage for kexec.

Currently add_interrupt_randomness() is called at each interrupt when one of the handlers has SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM flag, regardless whether the interrupt is processed by that handler or not. This results in the higher latency and perfomance loss. The patch fixes this behavior to avoid the unnecessary call by checking the return value from each handler.

A special kprobe type which can be placed on function entry points, and employs a simple mirroring principle to allow seamless access to the arguments of a function being probed. The probe handler routine should have the same prototype as the function being probed. Currently implemented for x86. The way it works is that when the probe is hit, the breakpoint handler simply irets to the probe handler's eip while retaining register and stack state corresponding to the function entry. After it is done, the probe handler calls jprobe_return() which traps again to restore processor state and switch back to the probed function. Linus noted correctly at KS that we need to be careful as gcc assumes that the callee owns arguments. We save and restore enough stack bytes to cover argument space. Sample Usage: static int jip_queue_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb, int ipfragok) { ... whatever ... jprobe_return(); return 0; } struct jprobe jp = { {.addr = (kprobe_opcode_t *) ip_queue_xmit}, .entry = (kprobe_opcode_t *) jip_queue_xmit }; register_jprobe(&jp); Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This patch helps developers to trap at almost any kernel code address, specifying a handler routine to be invoked when the breakpoint is hit. Useful for analysing the Linux kernel by collecting debugging information non-disruptively. Employs single-stepping out-of-line to avoid probe misses on SMP and may be especially useful in aiding debugging elusive races and problems on live systems. More elaborate dynamic tracing tools such as DProbes can be built over the kprobes interface.

This update only applies to Unisys' ES7000 server machines. The patch adds a OEM id check to verify the current machine running is actually a Unisys type box before executing the Unisys OEM parser routine. It also increases the MAX_MP_BUSSES definition from 32 to 256. On the ES7000s, bus ID numbering can range from 0 to 255. Without the patch, the system panics if booted with acpi=off. This patch has been tested and verified on an authentic ES7000 machine. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

I had a problem when compiling a 2.6 kernel with gcc 3.5 CVS. The prototype for prio_tree_remove in mm/prio_tree.c is inside another function. gcc 3.5 gets upset and removes the function completely. Apparently this isnt valid C, so lets fix it up.

From: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> - big functions moved out of line; - handle dev == NULL case, which apparently means the isa device. As before, this is needed for Jensen. This also makes the isa sound drivers working again with recent kernels.

[patch] libata: ata_piix.c PIO fix "[libata] transfer mode cleanup" introduced bug in ata_piix.c: previously PIO number (not mode) was passed to piix_set_piomode(). Fortunately this function is only used for (disabled) PATA support. I bet that this is the reason why MWDMA didn't work for PATA. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@elka.pw.edu.pl>

Paolo Giarrusso points out that the UML merge incorrectly caused INITIAL_JIFFIES to be reset back to zero, instead of the debug value for getting an early jiffies wrap. Fix it back up.

This patch fixes a problem introduced when CK804 support was added. mmio_base can only be set in the CK804 case, else libata will attempt to iounmap mmio_base, which isn't iomapped for the non-CK804 case. Still need the bar 5 address, so steal from host_set->ports[0]->ioaddr.scr_addr. Jeff, let me know if this is a bad thing to do.

We seem to have found an overflow problem in libata-core.c. We were trying to DMA to the address range 0xffff8000-0xffffbfff. In the original version of the code, given that address and count (0xffff8000 and 0x4000), the variable "boundary" would be set to 0, causing len to be set to 0x8000 (which is greater than sg_len). Then at the bottom of the loop, sg_len would be set to 0xffffc000 (0x4000 - 0x8000), which would then cause the loop never to terminate (until much of memory was scribbled over or the kernel died). The code below should be functionally identical, but not be subject to the same overflow problem (boundary needs to be a u33).

From: Laurent <laurent@gobio2.net> Some time ago, I sent on this list a mail about my strange problem with my SiS900 network card (Subject was Sluggish performances with FreeBSD) To sum up, when my card is in 100Mb mode, I have poor throughput but in 10Mb, all seems normal. After some tests, it seems these results was due to a misdetection of the PHY device. mii-tool reports : product info: vendor 08:00:17, model 3 rev 0 and after some search on the web, I found it's a NS DP83847 which is very similar.
