7b35520243 [PATCH] i386: Profile pc badness
Profile_pc was broken when using paravirtualization because the
assumption the kernel was running at CPL 0 was violated, causing
bad logic to read a random value off the stack.

The only way to be in kernel lock functions is to be in kernel
code, so validate that assumption explicitly by checking the CS
value.  We don't want to be fooled by BIOS / APM segments and
try to read those stacks, so only match KERNEL_CS.

I moved some stuff in segment.h to make it prettier.

bbab4f3bb7 [PATCH] i386: vMI timer patches
VMI timer code.  It works by taking over the local APIC clock when APIC is
configured, which requires a couple hooks into the APIC code.  The backend
timer code could be commonized into the timer infrastructure, but there are
some pieces missing (stolen time, in particular), and the exact semantics of
when to do accounting for NO_IDLE need to be shared between different
hypervisors as well.  So for now, VMI timer is a separate module.

ae5da273fe [PATCH] i386: SMP boot hook for paravirt
Add VMI SMP boot hook.  We emulate a regular boot sequence and use the same
APIC IPI initiation, we just poke magic values to load into the CPU state when
the startup IPI is received, rather than having to jump through a real mode
trampoline.

This is all that was needed to get SMP to work.

8b15114434 [PATCH] i386: iOPL handling for paravirt guests
I found a clever way to make the extra IOPL switching invisible to
non-paravirt compiles - since kernel_rpl is statically defined to be zero
there, and only non-zero rpl kernel have a problem restoring IOPL, as popf
does not restore IOPL flags unless run at CPL-0.

9226d125d9 [PATCH] i386: paravirt CPU hypercall batching mode
The VMI ROM has a mode where hypercalls can be queued and batched.  This turns
out to be a significant win during context switch, but must be done at a
specific point before side effects to CPU state are visible to subsequent
instructions.  This is similar to the MMU batching hooks already provided.
The same hooks could be used by the Xen backend to implement a context switch
multicall.

To explain a bit more about lazy modes in the paravirt patches, basically, the
idea is that only one of lazy CPU or MMU mode can be active at any given time.
 Lazy MMU mode is similar to this lazy CPU mode, and allows for batching of
multiple PTE updates (say, inside a remap loop), but to avoid keeping some
kind of state machine about when to flush cpu or mmu updates, we just allow
one or the other to be active.  Although there is no real reason a more
comprehensive scheme could not be implemented, there is also no demonstrated
need for this extra complexity.

c119ecce89 [PATCH] MM: page allocation hooks for VMI backend
The VMI backend uses explicit page type notification to track shadow page
tables.  The allocation of page table roots is especially tricky.  We need to
clone the root for non-PAE mode while it is protected under the pgd lock to
correctly copy the shadow.

We don't need to allocate pgds in PAE mode, (PDPs in Intel terminology) as
they only have 4 entries, and are cached entirely by the processor, which
makes shadowing them rather simple.

For base page table level allocation, pmd_populate provides the exact hook
point we need.  Also, we need to allocate pages when splitting a large page,
and we must release pages before returning the page to any free pool.

Despite being required with these slightly odd semantics for VMI, Xen also
uses these hooks to determine the exact moment when page tables are created or
released.

5809f9d442 [PATCH] x86-64: get rid of ARCH_HAVE_XTIME_LOCK
ARCH_HAVE_XTIME_LOCK is used by x86_64 arch .  This arch needs to place a
read only copy of xtime_lock into vsyscall page.  This read only copy is
named __xtime_lock, and xtime_lock is defined in
arch/x86_64/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S as an alias.  So the declaration of
xtime_lock in kernel/timer.c was guarded by ARCH_HAVE_XTIME_LOCK define,
defined to true on x86_64.

We can get same result with _attribute__((weak)) in the declaration. linker
should do the job.

faed197b7b [PATCH] mmconfig: Fix x86_64 ioremap base_address
Current mmconfig has some problems of remapped range.

a) In the case of broken MCFG tables on Asus etc., we need to remap 256M
   range, but currently only remap 1M.

b) The base address always corresponds to bus number 0, but currently we
   are assuming it corresponds to start bus number.

This patch fixes the above problems.

(akpm: Arjan suggests that if the MCFG table is broken we just shouldn't use
it, rather than try to work around things).

464d1a78fb [PATCH] i386: Convert i386 PDA code to use %fs
Convert the PDA code to use %fs rather than %gs as the segment for
per-processor data.  This is because some processors show a small but
measurable performance gain for reloading a NULL segment selector (as %fs
generally is in user-space) versus a non-NULL one (as %gs generally is).

On modern processors the difference is very small, perhaps undetectable.
Some old AMD "K6 3D+" processors are noticably slower when %fs is used
rather than %gs; I have no idea why this might be, but I think they're
sufficiently rare that it doesn't matter much.

This patch also fixes the math emulator, which had not been adjusted to
match the changed struct pt_regs.

54413927f0 [PATCH] x86-64: x86_64-make-the-numa-hash-function-nodemap-allocation fix fix
- Removed an extraneous debug message from allocate_cachealigned_map

- Changed extract_lsb_from_nodes to return 63 for the case where there was
  only one memory node.  The prevents the creation of the dynamic hashmap.

- Changed extract_lsb_from_nodes to use only the starting memory address of
  a node.  On an ES7000, our nodes overlap the starting and ending address,
  meaning, that we see nodes like

	00000 - 10000
	10000 - 20000

  But other systems have nodes whose start and end addresses do not overlap.
   For example:

	00000 - 0FFFF
	10000 - 1FFFF

  In this case, using the ending address will result in an LSB much lower
  than what is possible.  In this case an LSB of 1 when in reality it should
  be 16.

This patch has the nice side effect in that it allows the hash map to grow

having small PCI space tacked onto the boot node (which is somewhere
between 192MB to 512MB on the ES7000).

Enable the sony_acpi driver to use the backlight subsysyem for adjusting
the monitor brightness.  Old way of changing the brightness will be still
available for compatibility with existing tools.

50f62afb11 sony_acpi: Add backlight support to the sony_acpi
Make the sony_acpi use the backlight subsystem to adjust brightness value
instead of using the /proc/sony/brightness file.  (Other settings will
still have a /proc/sony/...  entry)

7f09c432be sony_acpi: SNC device support for Sony Vaios
From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com>

  Even though the devices claimed by sony_acpi.c can not be hot-plugged, the
  driver registration infrastructure allows the .add() and .remove() methods
  to be called at any time while the driver is registered.  So remove __init
  and __exit from them.

6eb87fed52 ACPI: acpi_table_parse_madt_family() is not MADT specific
acpi_table_parse_madt_family() is also used to parse SRAT entries.
So re-name it to acpi_table_parse_entries(), and re-name the
madt-specific variables within it accordingly.

cosmetic only.

7f8f97c3cc ACPI: acpi_table_parse() now returns success/fail, not count
Returning count for tables that are supposed to be unique
was useless and confusing.
