From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> This patch fixes a whole pile of problems in the xmon kernel debugger for ppc64. This basically makes xmon SMP-safe. Now, when we enter xmon it sends an IPI to the other CPUs to get them into xmon too. It also changes the way we do single-stepping and breakpoints so that we don't have to remove a breakpoint to proceed from it (instead we either emulate the instruction where the breakpoint was, or execute it out of place). With this patch, if we get an exception inside xmon, it will just return to the xmon command loop instead of hanging the system as at present. The patch is quite large because it updates the disassembler to the latest version from binutils (trimmed a bit), which is why I didn't cc lkml.

From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> When I added the out-of-line spinlocks on PPC64, I inadvertently introduced a bug in the inline version of _raw_spin_trylock, where it returns the opposite of what it should return. The patch below fixes it.

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> This fixes busted asm constraints for readq & writeq implementation on ppc64 that resulted in garbage beeing generated for writeq (plus an obvious mistake in the prototype).

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> When hotplug cpu isn't enabled, cpu_is_offline is always false. I had a stuck cpu at boot that resulted in a lockup because we tried to start a migration thread on it. Instead of cpu_is_offline we can use !cpu_online which should cover both the hotplug cpu enabled and disabled cases.

RPC: Make "major" timeouts be of fixed length "timeo<<retrans" rather than counting the number of retransmissions. The clock starts at the first attempt to send each request. RPC: Ensure that we "slow start" the RTT estimation after a major timeout has occurred.

no longer calls the generic VFS read and write routines. This allows all application read requests to pass through to the server, instead of just the ones that appear to be inside the file. this eliminates the requirement to use a GETATTR operation before each read or write to determine where the EOF is. This is a significant performance and scalability win. It also removes all requirements for holding the inode semaphore during NFS direct reads and writes, as the read and write logic no longer needs atomic access to the size of the file. this also helps client CPU scalability by reducing the serialization of writes against a single file.

In several functions, d_instantiate is called before the transaction is committed. Under the rare condition that txCommit fails, the new inode is released, but the dentry continues to point to it. This can lead to a seg fault. The fix is to call d_instantiate after txCommit has run successfully.

The NFS readlink() methods all take a buffer length argument. Use that instead of assuming PAGE_SIZE... We need to return ENAMETOOLONG rather than EIO.

Make sure NFS client doesn't see errors from mode setting on new symlinks. When nfsd creates a symlink, it tries to set the mode as the mode is carried in the NFS request and some filesystems store a mode. If the filesystem refuses to set the mode (e.g. -EOPNOTSUPP), this error should not be returned to the client.
