35834ca1e4 sysctl: simplify the pty sysctl logic
Instead of having a bunch of ifdefs in sysctl.c move all of the pty sysctl
logic into drivers/char/pty.c

As well as cleaning up the logic this prevents sysctl_check_table from
complaining that the root table has a NULL data pointer on something with
generic methods.

95d9ffbe01 PM: Move definition of struct pm_ops to suspend.h
Move the definition of 'struct pm_ops' and related functions from <linux/pm.h>
to <linux/suspend.h> .

There are, at least, the following reasons to do that:
* 'struct pm_ops' is specifically related to suspend and not to the power
  management in general.
* As long as 'struct pm_ops' is defined in <linux/pm.h>, any modification of it
  causes the entire kernel to be recompiled, which is unnecessary and annoying.
* Some suspend-related features are already defined in <linux/suspend.h>, so it
  is logical to move the definition of 'struct pm_ops' into there.
* 'struct hibernation_ops', being the hibernation-related counterpart of
  'struct pm_ops', is defined in <linux/suspend.h> .

75e8b71d55 tty_ioctl: fix the baud_table check in encode_baud_rate
The tty_termios_encode_baud_rate() function as defined by tty_ioctl.c has a
problem with the baud_table within.  The comparison operators are reversed

77bf2bab91 Remove CONFIG_VT_UNICODE
Since default_utf8 is already a sysfs attribute, having an extra
CONFIG_VT_UNICODE compile-time option is redundant, since sysfs attributes can
be set at boot and run time.

Also let Linux VCs default to UTF-8 (as per the discussion at

5f519d7281 tty: expose new methods needed for drivers to get termios right
This adds three new functions (or in one case to be more exact makes it
always available)

tty_termios_copy_hw

Copies all the hardware settings from one termios structure to the other.
This is intended for drivers that support little or no hardware setting

tty_termios_encode_baud_rate

Allows you to set the input and output baud rate in a termios structure.  A
driver is supposed to set the resulting baud rate from a request so most
will want to use this function to set the resulting input and output rates
to match the hardware values.  Internally it knows about keeping Bxxx
encoding when possible to maximise compatibility.

tty_encode_baud_rate

As above but for the tty's own current termios structure

I suspect this will initially need some tweaking as it gets enabled by
driver patches over the next few mm cycles so consider this lot -mm only
for the moment so it can stabilize and end up neat before it goes to base.

I've tried not to break any obscure architectures - if you get a speed you
can't represent the code will print warnings on non updated termios systems
but not break.

Once this is merged and seems sane I've got a growing pile of driver
updates to use it - notably for USB serial drivers.

2e8ecb9db0 add CONFIG_VT_UNICODE
As of now, the kernel defaults to non-unicode and XLATE for the keyboard.
We've been changing this in Fedora, but that requires patching the defaults

The attached introduces CONFIG_VT_UNICODE, which sets the console in
unicode mode by default on boot, including both the virtual terminal and
the keyboard driver.

04c7197650 unicode diacritics support
There have been issues with non-latin1 diacritics and unicode.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7746

Git 759448f459 `Kernel utf-8 handling'
partly resolved it by adding conversion between diacritics and
unicode. The patch below goes further by just turning diacritics into
unicode, hence providing better future support. The kbd support can be
fetched from
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=12313

This was tested in all of latin1, latin9, latin2 and unicode with french
and czech dead keys.

Turn the kernel accent_table into unicode, and extend ioctls KDGKBDIACR
and KDSKBDIACR into their equivalents KDGKBDIACRUC and KDSKBDIACR.

New function int conv_uni_to_8bit(u32 uni) for converting unicode into 8bit
_input_.  No, we don't want to store the translation, as it is potentially
sparse and large.

Driver does
	proc_mkdir("ipmi", NULL);
but
	remove_proc_entry(proc_ipmi_root->name, &proc_root);

This is OK and working if only slightly inconsistent.  Also changing
proc_root to NULL will help OpenVZ which has multiple proc roots and, as we

93b1eab3d2 paravirt: refactor struct paravirt_ops into smaller pv_*_ops
This patch refactors the paravirt_ops structure into groups of
functionally related ops:

pv_info - random info, rather than function entrypoints
pv_init_ops - functions used at boot time (some for module_init too)
pv_misc_ops - lazy mode, which didn't fit well anywhere else
pv_time_ops - time-related functions
pv_cpu_ops - various privileged instruction ops
pv_irq_ops - operations for managing interrupt state
pv_apic_ops - APIC operations
pv_mmu_ops - operations for managing pagetables

There are several motivations for this:

1. Some of these ops will be general to all x86, and some will be
   i386/x86-64 specific.  This makes it easier to share common stuff
   while allowing separate implementations where needed.

2. At the moment we must export all of paravirt_ops, but modules only
   need selected parts of it.  This allows us to export on a case by case
   basis (and also choose which export license we want to apply).

3. Functional groupings make things a bit more readable.

Struct paravirt_ops is now only used as a template to generate
patch-site identifiers, and to extract function pointers for inserting
into jmp/calls when patching.  It is only instantiated when needed.

e400b6ec4e vt/vgacon: Check if screen resize request comes from userspace
Various console drivers are able to resize the screen via the con_resize()
hook.  This hook is also visible in userspace via the TIOCWINSZ, VT_RESIZE and
VT_RESIZEX ioctl's.  One particular utility, SVGATextMode, expects that
con_resize() of the VGA console will always return success even if the
resulting screen is not compatible with the hardware.  However, this
particular behavior of the VGA console, as reported in Kernel Bugzilla Bug
7513, can cause undefined behavior if the user starts with a console size
larger than 80x25.

To work around this problem, add an extra parameter to con_resize().  This
parameter is ignored by drivers except for vgacon.  If this parameter is
non-zero, then the resize request came from a VT_RESIZE or VT_RESIZEX ioctl
and vgacon will always return success.  If this parameter is zero, vgacon will
return -EINVAL if the requested size is not compatible with the hardware.  The
latter is the more correct behavior.

With this change, SVGATextMode should still work correctly while in-kernel and
stty resize calls can expect correct behavior from vgacon.

557ed1fa26 remove ZERO_PAGE
The commit b5810039a5 contains the note

  A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap
  (and thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss).  These writes to
  the struct page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big
  systems.  There are a number of ways this could be addressed if it is
  an issue.

And indeed this cacheline bouncing has shown up on large SGI systems.
There was a situation where an Altix system was essentially livelocked
tearing down ZERO_PAGE pagetables when an HPC app aborted during startup.
This situation can be avoided in userspace, but it does highlight the
potential scalability problem with refcounting ZERO_PAGE, and corner
cases where it can really hurt (we don't want the system to livelock!).

There are several broad ways to fix this problem:
1. add back some special casing to avoid refcounting ZERO_PAGE
2. per-node or per-cpu ZERO_PAGES
3. remove the ZERO_PAGE completely

I will argue for 3. The others should also fix the problem, but they
result in more complex code than does 3, with little or no real benefit
that I can see.

Why? Inserting a ZERO_PAGE for anonymous read faults appears to be a
false optimisation: if an application is performance critical, it would
not be doing many read faults of new memory, or at least it could be
expected to write to that memory soon afterwards. If cache or memory use
is critical, it should not be working with a significant number of
ZERO_PAGEs anyway (a more compact representation of zeroes should be
used).

As a sanity check -- mesuring on my desktop system, there are never many
mappings to the ZERO_PAGE (eg. 2 or 3), thus memory usage here should not
increase much without it.

When running a make -j4 kernel compile on my dual core system, there are
about 1,000 mappings to the ZERO_PAGE created per second, but about 1,000
ZERO_PAGE COW faults per second (less than 1 ZERO_PAGE mapping per second
is torn down without being COWed). So removing ZERO_PAGE will save 1,000
page faults per second when running kbuild, while keeping it only saves
less than 1 page clearing operation per second. 1 page clear is cheaper
than a thousand faults, presumably, so there isn't an obvious loss.

Neither the logical argument nor these basic tests give a guarantee of no
regressions. However, this is a reasonable opportunity to try to remove
the ZERO_PAGE from the pagefault path. If it is found to cause regressions,
we can reintroduce it and just avoid refcounting it.

The /dev/zero ZERO_PAGE usage and TLB tricks also get nuked.  I don't see
much use to them except on benchmarks.  All other users of ZERO_PAGE are
converted just to use ZERO_PAGE(0) for simplicity. We can look at
replacing them all and maybe ripping out ZERO_PAGE completely when we are
more satisfied with this solution.

bdc3e603cd fix use after free in amd create gatt pages
Coverity spotted a "use after free" bug in
drivers/char/agp/amd-k7-agp.c::amd_create_gatt_pages().

The problem is this:
	If "entry = kzalloc(sizeof(struct amd_page_map), GFP_KERNEL);"
fails, then there's a loop in the function to free all entries
allocated so far and break out of the allocation loop. That in itself
is pretty sane, but then the (now freed) 'tables' is assigned to
amd_irongate_private.gatt_pages and 'retval' is set to -ENOMEM which
causes amd_free_gatt_pages(); to be called at the end of the function.
The problem with this is that amd_free_gatt_pages() will then loop
'amd_irongate_private.num_tables' times and try to free each entry in
tables[] - this is bad since tables has already been freed and
furthermore it will call kfree(tables) at the end - a double free.

This patch removes the freeing loop in amd_create_gatt_pages() and
instead relies entirely on the call to amd_free_gatt_pages() to free
everything we allocated in case of an error. It also sets
amd_irongate_private.num_tables to the actual number of entries
allocated instead of just using the value passed in from the caller -
this ensures that amd_free_gatt_pages() will only attempt to free
stuff that was actually allocated.

a2721e998e AGP fix race condition between unmapping and freeing pages
With Andi's clflush fixup, we were getting hangs on server exit, flushing the
mappings after freeing each page helped.

This showed up a race condition where the pages after being freed could be
reused before the agp mappings had been flushed.  Flushing after each single
page is a bad thing for future drm work, so make the page destroy a two pass
unmapping all the pages, flushing the mappings, and then destroying the pages.
