f6365201d8 x86: Remove the ancient and deprecated disable_hlt() and enable_hlt() facility
The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the
32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the
HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially
it turned off the use of HLT.

This workaround was commented in the code as:

 "disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations"

 "This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA
  wreckage. It should be safe to remove."

H. Peter Anvin additionally adds:

 "To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of
  flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to
  run DOS.  Since DOS did no power management of any kind,
  including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed
  to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT
  caused some of these systems to fail.

  They were by far in the minority even back then."

Alan Cox further says:

 "Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT
  occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during
  DMA tended to go astray.

  Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520
  fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of
  use."

So, let's finally drop this.

[ If anyone cares then alternative instruction patching could be
  used to replace HLT with a one-byte NOP instruction. Much simpler. ]

 "The biggest textual change is the cleanup to use symbolic constants

  The only *functional* change and the reason for the x86/x32 dependency

  be used in other code that needs to understand if a system call comes
  from the compat entry point (and therefore uses i386 system call
  numbers) or not.  One intended user for that is the BPF system call
  filter.  Moving it out of <asm/compat.h> means we can define it
  unconditionally, returning always true on i386."

"regulator: Remove support for supplies specified by struct device"

caused this file to break, since it was still relying on the

Since there are two consumers with the name "reg-userspace-consumer",
we have to supply the ID as a suffix in the REGULATOR_CONSUMER calls.

3751d3e85c x86,kgdb: Fix DEBUG_RODATA limitation using text_poke()
There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a
kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For
this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all
the way back to 2.6.36.

The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates
writing a breakpoint into a read-only page.  The x86 kgdb code can
solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint
set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly.

The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional
probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function.
The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break
point removal routine will get called later on.

  make[1]: *** [arch/ia64/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1

Right now we don't seem to need any actual contents for the

xchg() and cmpxchg() to this new header file for a future patch.

Liu, Chuansheng
99dd5497e5 x86: Preserve lazy irq disable semantics in fixup_irqs()
The default irq_disable() sematics are to mark the interrupt disabled,
but keep it unmasked. If the interrupt is delivered while marked
disabled, the low level interrupt handler masks it and marks it
pending. This is important for detecting wakeup interrupts during
suspend and for edge type interrupts to avoid losing interrupts.

fixup_irqs() moves the interrupts away from an offlined cpu. For
certain interrupt types it needs to mask the interrupt line before
changing the affinity. After affinity has changed the interrupt line
is unmasked again, but only if it is not marked disabled.

This breaks the lazy irq disable semantics and causes problems in
suspend as the interrupt can be lost or wakeup functionality is
broken.

Check irqd_irq_masked() instead of irqd_irq_disabled() because
irqd_irq_masked() is only set, when the core code actually masked the
interrupt line. If it's not set, we unmask the interrupt and let the
lazy irq disable logic deal with an eventually incoming interrupt.

This adopts a trimmed down version of the MIPS port mangling interface
limited to the I/O swabbing for platforms that can't use little endian
accessors. For platforms with mixed I/O spaces involving PCI it will
still be necessary to enable byte swapping at the host controller level.
Attention needs to be paid to all of host controller endianness, CPU
endianness, and whether I/O accesses are explicitly swapped or not via
SWAP_IO_SPACE. Fortunately the platforms that need this are in the
minority.

09c71bfd83 kdump x86: fix total mem size calculation for reservation
crashkernel reservation need know the total memory size.  Current
get_total_mem simply use max_pfn - min_low_pfn.  It is wrong because it
will including memory holes in the middle.

Especially for kvm guest with memory > 0xe0000000, there's below in qemu
code: qemu split memory as below:

    if (ram_size >= 0xe0000000 ) {
        above_4g_mem_size = ram_size - 0xe0000000;
        below_4g_mem_size = 0xe0000000;
    } else {
        below_4g_mem_size = ram_size;
    }

So for 4G mem guest, seabios will insert a 512M usable region beyond of
4G.  Thus in above case max_pfn - min_low_pfn will be more than original
memsize.

Fixing this issue by using memblock_phys_mem_size() to get the total
memsize.

3fc498f165 smp: introduce a generic on_each_cpu_mask() function
We have lots of infrastructure in place to partition multi-core systems
such that we have a group of CPUs that are dedicated to specific task:
cgroups, scheduler and interrupt affinity, and cpuisol= boot parameter.
Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs
for various needs.  These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided
altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific
CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system.

This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic
Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying
to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls
are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group
of CPUs.  The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the
right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is
even worth dealing with at all.  Based on the feedback from this patch set
I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code
paths.

This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond()
infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific
versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI
invocation to per CPU group invocations.

Core kernel:

on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask,
which may or may not include the local processor.

You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a
hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler.

arch/arm:

Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one:

1. It has the mask as first parameter
2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled,
   but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
   with interrupts disabled anyway.

arch/tile:

The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version
also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case

This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
with interrupts disabled.

5e047fa159 sh: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask()
As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do
retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is
incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is
pending in the shared queue.

Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f2
("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code
across architectures.  In the past some architectures got this code wrong,
so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

8368b0e0ca sh: no need to reset handler if SA_ONESHOT
get_signal_to_deliver() already resets the signal handler if SA_ONESHOT is
set in ka->sa.sa_flags, there's no need to do it again in handle_signal().
 Furthermore, because we were modifying ka->sa.sa_handler (which is a copy
of sighand->action[]) instead of sighand->action[] the original code had
no effect on signal delivery.
