3be434f Revert "PCI: create function symlinks in /sys/bus/pci/slots/N/" This reverts commit 75568f8094eb0333e9c2109b23cbc8b82d318a3c. Since they're just a convenience anyway, remove these symlinks since they're causing duplicate filename errors in the wild.

f6d440d PCI: change resource collision messages from KERN_ERR to KERN_INFO We can often deal with PCI resource issues by moving devices around. In that case, there's no point in alarming the user with messages like these. There are many bug reports where the message itself is the only problem, e.g., https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/413419 .

beb1b6b hwmon: Driver for TI TMP102 temperature sensor Driver for the TI TMP102. The TI TMP102 is similar to the LM75. It differs from the LM75 by having a 16-bit conf register and the temp registers have a minimum resolution of 12 bits; the extended conf register can select 13-bit resolution (which this driver does) and also change the update rate (which this driver currently doesn't use).

fa5575c hwmon: (applesmc) Add temperature sensor labels to sysfs interface The Apple SMC uses a systematic labeling scheme for the hardware temperature sensors. This scheme is currently hidden from userland. Since the sensor set, and consequently the numbering, differs between models, an extensive database of configurations is required for an application such as fan control. This patch adds the SMC labels to the hwmon sysfs interface, allowing applications to use the sensors more intelligibly.

70dd6be hwmon: (asus_atk0110) Don't load if ACPI resources aren't enforced When the user passes the kernel parameter acpi_enforce_resources=lax, the ACPI resources are no longer protected, so a native driver can make use of them. In that case, we do not want the asus_atk0110 to be loaded. Unfortunately, this driver loads automatically due to its MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE, so the user ends up with two drivers loaded for the same device - this is bad. So I suggest that we prevent the asus_atk0110 driver from loading if acpi_enforce_resources=lax.

He suggested Documentation/vm/numa for this documentation. Looking at this file, it seems to me to be hopelessly out of date relative to current Linux NUMA support. At the risk of going down a rathole, I have made an attempt to rewrite the doc at a slightly higher level [I think] and provide pointers to other in-tree documents and out-of-tree man pages that cover the details.

7d6e6d0 numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

7aac789 numa: introduce numa_mem_id()- effective local memory node id Introduce numa_mem_id(), based on generic percpu variable infrastructure to track "nearest node with memory" for archs that support memoryless nodes. Define API in <linux/topology.h> when CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES defined, else stubs. Architectures will define HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES if/when they support them. Archs can override definitions of: numa_mem_id() - returns node number of "local memory" node set_numa_mem() - initialize [this cpus'] per cpu variable 'numa_mem' cpu_to_mem() - return numa_mem for specified cpu; may be used as lvalue Generic initialization of 'numa_mem' occurs in __build_all_zonelists(). This will initialize the boot cpu at boot time, and all cpus on change of numa_zonelist_order, or when node or memory hot-plug requires zonelist rebuild. Archs that support memoryless nodes will need to initialize 'numa_mem' for secondary cpus as they're brought on-line.

7281201 numa: add generic percpu var numa_node_id() implementation Rework the generic version of the numa_node_id() function to use the new generic percpu variable infrastructure. Guard the new implementation with a new config option: CONFIG_USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID. Archs which support this new implemention will default this option to 'y' when NUMA is configured. This config option could be removed if/when all archs switch over to the generic percpu implementation of numa_node_id(). Arch support involves: 1) converting any existing per cpu variable implementations to use this implementation. x86_64 is an instance of such an arch. 2) archs that don't use a per cpu variable for numa_node_id() will need to initialize the new per cpu variable "numa_node" as cpus are brought on-line. ia64 is an example. 3) Defining USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID in arch dependent Kconfig--e.g., when NUMA is configured. This is required because I have retained the old implementation by default to allow archs to be modified incrementally, as desired. Subsequent patches will convert x86_64 and ia64 to use this implemenation.

ca57272 fs/: do not fallback to default_llseek() when readdir() uses BKL Do not use the fallback default_llseek() if the readdir operation of the filesystem still uses the big kernel lock. Since llseek() modifies file->f_pos of the directory directly it may need locking to not confuse readdir which usually uses file->f_pos directly as well Since the special characteristics of the BKL (unlocked on schedule) are not necessary in this case, the inode mutex can be used for locking as provided by generic_file_llseek(). This is only possible since all filesystems, except reiserfs, either use a directory as a flat file or with disk address offsets. Reiserfs on the other hand uses a 32bit hash off the filename as the offset so generic_file_llseek() can get used as well since the hash is always smaller than sb->s_maxbytes (= (512 << 32) - blocksize).

204f3a0 asm-generic: remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in scatterlist.h This is the first half of the attempt to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h on every architecture. There are only two ways to define scatterlist structure. So it's easy to convert every architecture to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h. This patch: The trick for ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in asm-generic/scatterlist.h doesn't work for powerpc. This lets architectures defin ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD. Hopefully, we can remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in the future; we can do better to decide if the bouncing is necessary or not.

9d85cba aio: fix the compat vectored operations The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to 64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or EFAULT as the result of the I/O. This patch passes a compat flag to io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb array. A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev. I have also updated the libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success. Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32 on my 64bit system). All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be welcome.

b837336 compat: factor out compat_rw_copy_check_uvector from compat_do_readv_writev It was reported in http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/8/309 that 32 bit readv and writev AIO operations were not functioning properly. It turns out that the code to convert the 32bit io vectors to 64 bits was never written. The results of that can be pretty bad, but in my testing, it mostly ended up in generating EFAULT as we walked off the list of I/O vectors provided. This patch set fixes the problem in my environment. are greatly appreciated. This patch: Factor out code that will be used by both compat_do_readv_writev and the compat aio submission code paths.

5b530fc panic: call console_verbose() in panic Most distros turn the console verbosity down and that means a backtrace after a panic never makes it to the console. I assume we haven't seen this because a panic is often preceeded by an oops which will have called console_verbose. There are however a lot of places we call panic directly, and they are broken. Use console_verbose like we do in the oops path to ensure a directly called panic will print a backtrace.

5960164 lib/random32: export pseudo-random number generator for modules This patch moves the definition of struct rnd_state and the inline __seed() function to linux/random.h. It renames the static __random32() function to prandom32() and exports it for use in modules. prandom32() is useful as a privately-seeded pseudo random number generator that can give the same result every time it is initialized. For FCoE FC-BB-6 VN2VN mode self-selected unique FC address generation, we need an pseudo-random number generator seeded with the 64-bit world-wide port name. A truly random generator or one seeded with randomness won't do because the same sequence of numbers should be generated each time we boot or the link comes up. A prandom32_seed() inline function is added to the header file. It is inlined not for speed, but so the function won't be expanded in the base kernel, but only in the module that uses it.
