according to Ingo, io_apic irq-setup related functions have too many parameters with a repetitive signature. So reduce related funcs to get less params by passing a pointer to a newly defined io_apic_irq_attr structure. v2: io_apic_irq ==> irq_attr triggering ==> trigger v3: add set_io_apic_irq_attr [ Impact: cleanup ] Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Cc: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> LKML-Reference: <4A08ACD3.2070401@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Ed found that on 32-bit, boot_cpu_physical_apicid is not read right, when the mptable is broken. Interestingly, actually three paths use/set it: 1. acpi: at that time that is already read from reg 2. mptable: only read from mptable 3. no madt, and no mptable, that use default apic id 0 for 64-bit, -1 for 32-bit so we could read the apic id for the 2/3 path. We trust the hardware register more than we trust a BIOS data structure (the mptable). We can also avoid the double set_fixmap() when acpi_lapic is used, and also need to move cpu_has_apic earlier and call apic_disable(). Also when need to update the apic id, we'd better read and set the apic version as well - so that quirks are applied precisely. v2: make path 3 with 64bit, use -1 as apic id, so could read it later. v3: fix whitespace problem pointed out by Ed Swierk v5: fix boot crash [ Impact: get correct apic id for bsp other than acpi path ] Reported-by: Ed Swierk <eswierk@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Acked-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> LKML-Reference: <49FC85A9.2070702@kernel.org> [ v4: sanity-check in the ACPI case too ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The patch to call mp_config_acpi_gsi() from the ACPI IRQ registration code never got mainline because there were open discussions about it. This call is needed to properly update the kernel's copy of the mptable, when the update_mptable boot parameter is needed. Now that the dust has settled with the APIC unification, and since there were no objections when the patch was re-submitted, try this again.

It's a really simple patch that basically just open-codes the current "secure_ip_id()" call, but when open-coding it we now use a _static_ hashing area, so that it gets updated every time. And to make sure somebody can't just start from the same original seed of all-zeroes, and then do the "half_md4_transform()" over and over until they get the same sequence as the kernel has, each iteration also mixes in the same old "current->pid + jiffies" we used - so we should now have a regular strong pseudo-number generator, but we also have one that doesn't have a single seed. Note: the "pid + jiffies" is just meant to be a tiny tiny bit of noise. It has no real meaning. It could be anything. I just picked the previous seed, it's just that now we keep the state in between calls and that will feed into the next result, and that should make all the difference. I made that hash be a per-cpu data just to avoid cache-line ping-pong: having multiple CPU's write to the same data would be fine for randomness, and add yet another layer of chaos to it, but since get_random_int() is supposed to be a fast interface I did it that way instead. I considered using "__raw_get_cpu_var()" to avoid any preemption overhead while still getting the hash be _mostly_ ping-pong free, but in the end good taste won out.

From: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com> To fully support the armv7-a instruction set/optimizations, support for the R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_MOVT_ABS relocation types is required. The MOVW and MOVT are both load-immediate instructions, MOVW loads 16 bits into the bottom half of a register, and MOVT loads 16 bits into the top half of a register. The relocation information for these instructions has a full 32 bit value, plus an addend which is stored in the 16 immediate bits in the instruction itself. The immediate bits in the instruction are not contiguous (the register # splits it into a 4 bit and 12 bit value), so the addend has to be extracted accordingly and added to the value. The value is then split and put into the instruction; a MOVW uses the bottom 16 bits of the value, and a MOVT uses the top 16 bits.

md maintains link in sys/mdXX/md/ to identify which device has which role in the array. e.g. rd2 -> dev-sda indicates that the device with role '2' in the array is sda. These links are only present when the array is active. They are created immediately after ->run is called, and so should be removed immediately after ->stop is called. However they are currently removed a little bit later, and it is possible for ->run to be called again, thus adding these links, before they are removed. So move the removal earlier so they are consistently only present when the array is active. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Being able to write 'clean' to an 'array_state' of an inactive array to activate it in 'clean' mode is both unnecessary and inconvenient. It is unnecessary because the same can be achieved by writing 'active'. This activates and array, but it still remains 'clean' until the first write. It is inconvenient because writing 'clean' is more often used to cause an 'active' array to revert to 'clean' mode (thus blocking any writes until a 'write-pending' is promoted to 'active'). Allowing 'clean' to both activate an array and mark an active array as clean can lead to races: One program writes 'clean' to mark the active array as clean at the same time as another program writes 'inactive' to deactivate (stop) and active array. Depending on which writes first, the array could be deactivated and immediately reactivated which isn't what was desired. So just disable the use of 'clean' to activate an array. This avoids a race that can be triggered with mdadm-3.0 and external metadata, so it suitable for -stable.
