From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> It turns out we do avoid irq recursion on iseries so remove the workaround.

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> We check nvram_fetch/nvram_store against -1, so better not make these unsigned.

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Based on feedback from the hardware guys align jiffies and tb_last_stamp. We update both regularly and there are other read only, heavily accessed things that share those cachelines.

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> We need to set MSR_RI in iseries exception prolog.

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> We were allocating radix tree nodes in the interrupt code with GFP_KERNEL under a spinlock. Change it to GFP_ATOMIC.

From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> The patch below moves some declarations from C files into the appropriate header file in include/asm-ppc (and removes an unused local variable in a function).

Andrew Morton authored
From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Matt Porter's recent changes broke the compile for non-4xx ppc32 systems, unfortunately. I get an error that mfdcr is not defined in include/asm-ppc/ocp.h when compiling for powermac (reasonable, since the mfdcr instruction only exists on 4xx processors). The patch below fixes it.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Matt Porter <mporter@kernel.crashing.org> This patch fixes the condition where prefetching cache lines beyond a buffer can cause data corruption on non cache coherent PPCs. It is a port of the version that went into 2.4. From Eugene Surovegin <ebs@ebshome.net>.
-
Andrew Morton authored
From: Matt Porter <mporter@kernel.crashing.org> This patch implements/uses __flush_dcache_icache_page() which kmaps on a Book E part, but keeps the existing behavior on other PowerPCs which can disable the MMU.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> ext3 as module is not possible in 2.6.6, clear_pages, called from clear_page, is not exported. Also, unexport clear_page(), which is an inline.

Jorn Engel <joern@wohnheim.fh-wedel.de> inode->i_flags should never contain fs-specific flags. In fact, it doesn't; the checks against it cause "chattr +T" to be useless for ext[23]. Same bug was in befs as well.

From: "Sergey S. Kostyliov" <rathamahata@php4.ru> Move value initialisation out of the loop body.
-
Andrew Morton authored
From: "Sergey S. Kostyliov" <rathamahata@php4.ru> We already have block number (inode->i_ino), so there is no need to calculate it from befs_block_run before sb_bread() call (this is what befs_bread_iaddr() do).
-
Andrew Morton authored
From: "Sergey S. Kostyliov" <rathamahata@php4.ru> LBD patch merged long time ago, so it is safe to pass u64 block numbers to sb_bread() when sector_t is large enough.

From: Geoff Gustafson <geoff@linux.jf.intel.com>, "Chen, Kenneth W" <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>, me. The big-SMP guys are seeing high CPU load due to del_timer_sync()'s inefficiencies. The callers are fs/aio.c and schedule_timeout(). We note that neither of these callers' timer handlers actually re-add the timer - they are single-shot. So we don't need all that complexity in del_timer_sync() - we can just run del_timer() and if that worked we know the timer is dead. Add del_single_shot_timer(), export it to modules and use it in AIO and schedule_timeout(). (these numbers are for an earlier patch, but they'll be close) Before: 32p 4p Warm cache 29,000 505 Cold cache 37,800 1220 After: 32p 4p Warm cache 95 88 Cold cache 1,800 140 [Measurements are CPU cycles spent in a call to del_timer_sync, the average of 1000 calls. 32p is 16-node NUMA, 4p is SMP.] (I cleaned up a few things and added some commentary)
