Improve performance of memory allocations on ia64 by avoiding a global TLB
purge to purge a single page from the file cache. This happens whenever we
evict a page from the buffer cache to make room for some other allocation.
Test case: Run 'find /usr -type f | xargs cat > /dev/null' in the
background to fill the buffer cache, then run something that uses memory,
e.g. 'gmake -j50 install'. Instrumentation showed that the number of
global TLB purges went from a few millions down to about 170 over a 12
hours run of the above.
The performance impact is particularly noticeable under virtualization,
because a virtual TLB is generally both larger and slower to purge than
a physical one.

this is the tale of a full day spent debugging an ancient but elusive bug.
after booting up thousands of random .config kernels, i finally happened
to generate a .config that produced the following rare bootup failure
on 32-bit x86:
| ..TIMER: vector=0x31 apic1=0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-1
| ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC
| ...trying to set up timer (IRQ0) through the 8259A ... failed.
| ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed.
| ...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ... failed :(.
| Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! Boot with apic=debug
| and send a report. Then try booting with the 'noapic' option
this bug has been reported many times during the years, but it was never
reproduced nor fixed.
the bug that i hit was extremely sensitive to .config details.
First i did a .config-bisection - suspecting some .config detail.
That led to CONFIG_X86_MCE: enabling X86_MCE magically made the bug disappear
and the system would boot up just fine.
Debugging my way through the MCE code ended up identifying two unlikely
candidates: the thing that made a real difference to the hang was that
X86_MCE did two printks:
Intel machine check architecture supported.
Intel machine check reporting enabled on CPU#1.
Adding the same printks to a !CONFIG_X86_MCE kernel made the bug go away!
this left timing as the main suspect: i experimented with adding various
udelay()s to the arch/x86/kernel/io_apic_32.c:check_timer() function, and
the race window turned out to be narrower than 30 microseconds (!).
That made debugging especially funny, debugging without having printk
ability before the bug hits is ... interesting ;-)
eventually i started suspecting IRQ activities - those are pretty much the
only thing that happen this early during bootup and have the timescale of
a few dozen microseconds. Also, check_timer() changes the IRQ hardware
in various creative ways, so the main candidate became IRQ0 interaction.
i've added a counter to track timer irqs (on which core they arrived, at
what exact time, etc.) and found that no timer IRQ would arrive after the
bug condition hits - even if we re-enable IRQ0 and re-initialize the i8259A,
but that we'd get a small number of timer irqs right around the time when we
call the check_timer() function.
Eventually i got the following backtrace triggered from debug code in the
timer interrupt:
...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed.
...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ...

the spin_unlock() was called from init_8259A(). Wait ... we have an IRQ0
entry while we are in the middle of setting up the local APIC, the i8259A
and the PIT??
That is certainly not how it's supposed to work! check_timer() was supposed
to be called with irqs turned off - but this eroded away sometime in the
past. This code would still work most of the time because this code runs
very quickly, but just the right timing conditions are present and IRQ0
hits in this small, ~30 usecs window, timer irqs stop and the system does
not boot up. Also, given how early this is during bootup, the hang is
very deterministic - but it would only occur on certain machines (and
certain configs).
The fix was quite simple: disable/restore interrupts properly in this
function. With that in place the test-system now boots up just fine.
(64-bit x86 io_apic_64.c had the same bug.)
Phew! One down, only 1500 other kernel bugs are left ;-)

Especially to Bob, as he has done titanic multi-day git-bisect
work that finally helped to reproduce and nail down the bug
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9457).
[ev6-]stxncpy.S: it's t12, not t2 register that is supposed to contain
the last byte offset upon return. As a result of wrong register use
(which was my fault back in 2003, IIRC), under some circumstances extra
terminating zero bytes were added to destination string. This particularly
led to incorrect DEVPATH strings generated in uevent and therefore to udev
problems.
strncpy.S: unrelated bug I found while testing the above fix - destination
is not properly zero-padded then a byte count exceeds source length.
Actually this is addition to strncpy fix from last year.

Sometimes when UML is debugged gdb miss breakpoints.
When process traced by gdb do fork, debugger remove breakpoints from
child address space. There is possibility to trace more than one fork,
but this not work with UML, I guess (only guess) there is a deadlock -
gdb waits for UML and UML waits for gdb.
When clone() is called with SIGCHLD and CLONE_VM flags, gdb see this
as PTRACE_EVENT_FORK not as PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE and remove breakpoints
from child and at the same time from traced process, because either
have the same address space.
Maybe it is possible to do fix in gdb, but I'm not sure if there is
easy way to find out if traced and child processes share memory. So I
do fix for UML, it simply do not call clone() with both SIGCHLD and
CLONE_VM flags together. Additionally __WALL flag is used for
waitpid() to assure not miss clone and normal process events.

The __weak definition of plat_time_init was only ever meant to be a
migration helper to keep platforms that don't have a plat_time_init
compiling. A few greps says that all platforms now supply their own
plat_time_init() so the weak definition is no longer needed. So I
instead delete it.

Currently it's impossible to build a ps3_defconfig which will reboot
without modules installed. This makes it all too easy to find yourself
with a PS3 that won't reboot.
This is because the system manager driver, which provides the reboot
mechanism, is only selectable if PS3_ADVANCED is set, else it defaults
to m. In ps3_defconfig PS3_ADVANCED is not set, therefore the system
manager is built as a module.
It would be desirable IMHO for the defconfig to produce a kernel that
boots and reboots, without needing modules to be installed.

This patch fixes rounding bug in emulation for double float operating on PowerPC platform.
When pack double float operand, it need to truncate the tail due to the limited precision.
If the truncated part is not zero, the last bit of work bit (totally 3 bits) need to '|' 1.
This patch is completed in _FP_FRAC_SRS_2(X,N,sz) (arch/powerpc/math-emu/op-2.h).
Originally the code leftwards rotates the operand to just keep the truncated part,
then check whether it is zero. However, the number it rotates is not correct when
N is not smaller than _FP_W_TYPE_SIZE, and it will cause the work bit '|' 1 in the improper case.

This was caught and identified by Greg Onufer.
Since we setup the 256M/4M bitmap table after taking over the trap
table, it's possible for some 4M mapping to get loaded in the TLB
beforhand which later will be 256M mappings.
This can cause illegal TLB multiple-match conditions. Fix this by
setting up the bitmap before we take over the trap table.
