c2a1910b06 [NETFILTER]: nf_nat_proto_gre: do not modify/corrupt GREv0 packets through NAT
While porting some changes of the 2.6.21-rc7 pptp/proto_gre conntrack
and nat modules to a 2.4.32 kernel I noticed that the gre_key function
returns a wrong pointer to the GRE key of a version 0 packet thus
corrupting the packet payload.

The intended behaviour for GREv0 packets is to act like
nf_conntrack_proto_generic/nf_nat_proto_unknown so I have ripped the
offending functions (not used anymore) and modified the
nf_nat_proto_gre modules to not touch version 0 (non PPTP) packets.

039576c03c KVM: Avoid guest virtual addresses in string pio userspace interface
The current string pio interface communicates using guest virtual addresses,
relying on userspace to translate addresses and to check permissions.  This
interface cannot fully support guest smp, as the check needs to take into
account two pages at one in case an unaligned string transfer straddles a
page boundary.

Change the interface not to communicate guest addresses at all; instead use
a buffer page (mmaped by userspace) and do transfers there.  The kernel
manages the virtual to physical translation and can perform the checks
atomically by taking the appropriate locks.

06465c5a3a KVM: Handle cpuid in the kernel instead of punting to userspace
KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to
return to the guest.  We now handle cpuid completely in the kernel.  We
still let userspace decide which values the guest will see by having
userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow
management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator,
so that live migration can work).

The motivation for the change is that kvm kernel code can be impacted by
cpuid features, for example the x86 emulator.

46fc147788 KVM: Do not communicate to userspace through cpu registers during PIO
Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we
rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx
(on string instructions).  This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting
and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when
they get kvm ports.

So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace
only an abstract description of the PIO to be done.

032de8e2fe MSI: Give archs the option to free all MSI/Xs at once.
This patch introduces an optional function, arch_teardown_msi_irqs(),
which gives an arch the opportunity to do per-device teardown for
MSI/X. If that's not required, the default version simply calls
arch_teardown_msi_irq() for each msi irq required.

arch_teardown_msi_irqs() is simply passed a pdev, attached to the pdev
is a list of msi_descs, it is up to the arch to free the irq associated
with each of these as appropriate.

For archs that _don't_ implement arch_teardown_msi_irqs(), all msi_descs
with irq == 0 are considered unallocated, and the arch teardown routine
is not called on them.

9c8313343c MSI: Give archs the option to allocate all MSI/Xs at once.
This patch introduces an optional function, arch_setup_msi_irqs(),
(note the plural) which gives an arch the opportunity to do per-device
setup for MSI/X and then allocate all the requested MSI/Xs at once.

If that's not required by the arch, the default version simply calls
arch_setup_msi_irq() for each MSI irq required.

arch_setup_msi_irqs() is passed a pdev, attached to the pdev is a list
of msi_descs with irq == 0, it is up to the arch to connect these up to
an irq (via set_irq_msi()) or return an error. For convenience the number
of vectors and the type are passed also.

All msi_descs with irq != 0 are considered allocated, and the arch
teardown routine will be called on them when necessary.

The existing semantics of pci_enable_msix() are that if the requested
number of irqs can not be allocated, the maximum number that _could_ be
allocated is returned. To support that, we define that in case of an
error from arch_setup_msi_irqs(), the number of msi_descs with irq != 0
are considered allocated, and are counted toward the "max that could be
allocated".

The msi descriptors are linked together with what looks a lot like

The only complication is that previously we walked a list of irqs, and

descriptors and need to get the irq out of it, so it needs to be in the
actual struct msi_desc. We use 0 to indicate no irq is setup.

This is needed for an ipr PCI-E adapter which does not properly

errors. The only reliable reset mechanism that exists on this
hardware is PCI Fundamental reset (warm reset). Since driving
this type of reset is architecture unique, this provides the

ce6234b529 [PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: add kmap_atomic_pte for mapping highpte pages
Xen and VMI both have special requirements when mapping a highmem pte
page into the kernel address space.  These can be dealt with by adding
a new kmap_atomic_pte() function for mapping highptes, and hooking it
into the paravirt_ops infrastructure.

Xen specifically wants to map the pte page RO, so this patch exposes a
helper function, kmap_atomic_prot, which maps the page with the
specified page protections.

This also adds a kmap_flush_unused() function to clear out the cached
kmap mappings.  Xen needs this to clear out any potential stray RW
mappings of pages which will become part of a pagetable.

[ Zach - vmi.c will need some attention after this patch.  It wasn't
  immediately obvious to me what needs to be done. ]

d4f7a2c18e [PATCH] i386: Relocate VDSO ELF headers to match mapped location with COMPAT_VDSO
Some versions of libc can't deal with a VDSO which doesn't have its
ELF headers matching its mapped address.  COMPAT_VDSO maps the VDSO at
a specific system-wide fixed address.  Previously this was all done at
build time, on the grounds that the fixed VDSO address is always at
the top of the address space.  However, a hypervisor may reserve some
of that address space, pushing the fixmap address down.

This patch does the adjustment dynamically at runtime, depending on
the runtime location of the VDSO fixmap.

[ Patch has been through several hands: Jan Beulich wrote the orignal
  version; Zach reworked it, and Jeremy converted it to relocate phdrs
  as well as sections. ]

b00742d399 [PATCH] x86-64: Account for module percpu space separately from kernel percpu
Rather than using a single constant PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM, compute it as
the sum of kernel_percpu + PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE.  This is now common
to all architectures; if an architecture wants to set
PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM to something special, then it may do so (ia64 is
the only one which does).

6fb14755a6 [PATCH] x86: tighten kernel image page access rights
On x86-64, kernel memory freed after init can be entirely unmapped instead
of just getting 'poisoned' by overwriting with a debug pattern.

On i386 and x86-64 (under CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA), kernel text and bug table
can also be write-protected.

Compared to the first version, this one prevents re-creating deleted
mappings in the kernel image range on x86-64, if those got removed
previously. This, together with the original changes, prevents temporarily
having inconsistent mappings when cacheability attributes are being
changed on such pages (e.g. from AGP code). While on i386 such duplicate
mappings don't exist, the same change is done there, too, both for
consistency and because checking pte_present() before using various other
pte_XXX functions is a requirement anyway. At once, i386 code gets
adjusted to use pte_huge() instead of open coding this.

AK: split out cpa() changes
