GRU Driver: hardware data structures
This series of patches adds a driver for the SGI UV GRU. The driver is
still in development but it currently compiles for both x86_64 & IA64.
All simple regression tests pass on IA64. Although features remain to be
added, I'd like to start the process of getting the driver into the
kernel. Additional kernel drivers will depend on services provide by the
GRU driver.
The GRU is a hardware resource located in the system chipset. The GRU
contains memory that is mmaped into the user address space. This memory
is used to communicate with the GRU to perform functions such as
load/store, scatter/gather, bcopy, AMOs, etc. The GRU is directly
accessed by user instructions using user virtual addresses. GRU
instructions (ex., bcopy) use user virtual addresses for operands.
The GRU contains a large TLB that is functionally very similar to
processor TLBs. Because the external contains a TLB with user virtual
address, it requires callouts from the core VM system when certain types
of changes are made to the process page tables. There are several MMUOPS
patches currently being discussed but none has been accepted into the
kernel. The GRU driver is built using version V18 from Andrea Arcangeli.
This patch:
Contains the definitions of the hardware GRU data structures that are used
by the driver to manage the GRU.

rtc-dev: stop periodic interrupts on device release
Solves http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11127
The old rtc.c driver did it and some drivers (like rtc-sh) do it in their
release function, though they should not -- because they should provide
the irq_set_state op and the rtc framework itself should care about it.
This patch makes it do so.
I am aware that some drivers, like rtc-sh, handle userspace PIE sets in
their ioctl op (instead of having the framework call the op), exporting
the irq_set_state op at the same time. The logic in rtc_irq_set_state
should make sure it doesn't matter and the driver should not need to care
stopping periodic interrupts in its release routine any more.
The correct way, in my opinion, should be this:
1) The driver provides the irq_set_state op and does not care closing the
interrupts in its release op.
2) If the driver does not provide the op and handles PIE in the ioctl op, it's
reponsible for closing them in its release op.
3) Something similar for other IRQs, like UIE -- if there's no in-kernel API
like irq_set_state, handle it in ioctl and release ops. The framework will
be responsible either for everything or for nothing. (This will probably
change later.)

markers: fix markers read barrier for multiple probes
Paul pointed out two incorrect read barriers in the marker handler code in
the path where multiple probes are connected. Those are ordering reads of
"ptype" (single or multi probe marker), "multi" array pointer, and "multi"
array data access.
It should be ordered like this :
read ptype
smp_rmb()
read multi array pointer
smp_read_barrier_depends()
access data referenced by multi array pointer
The code with a single probe connected (optimized case, does not have to
allocate an array) has correct memory ordering.

cpufreq acpi: only call _PPC after cpufreq ACPI init funcs got called already
Ingo Molnar provided a fix to not call _PPC at processor driver
initialization time in "[PATCH] ACPI: fix cpufreq regression" (git
commit
e4233dec749a3519069d9390561b5636a75c7579)
But it can still happen that _PPC is called at processor driver
initialization time.
This patch should make sure that this is not possible anymore.

Fix 'get_user_pages_fast()' with non-page-aligned start address
Alexey Dobriyan reported trouble with LTP with the new fast-gup code,
and Johannes Weiner debugged it to non-page-aligned addresses, where the
new get_user_pages_fast() code would do all the wrong things, including
just traversing past the end of the requested area due to 'addr' never
matching 'end' exactly.
This is not a pretty fix, and we may actually want to move the alignment
into generic code, leaving just the core code per-arch, but Alexey
verified that the vmsplice01 LTP test doesn't crash with this.

lguest: turn Waker into a thread, not a process
lguest uses a Waker process to break it out of the kernel (ie.
actually running the guest) when file descriptor needs attention.
Changing this from a process to a thread somewhat simplifies things:
it can directly access the fd_set of things to watch. More
importantly, it means that the Waker can see Guest memory correctly,
so /dev/vring file descriptors will work as anticipated (the
alternative is to actually mmap MAP_SHARED, but you can't do that with
/dev/zero).

slightly worse results, but doesn't need tweaking when GSO is

a guest exit for every packet, but we need to set a timer on packet

fill the entire buffer):
