Nick points out it never worked because PageReserved was set and it might cause problems later on. Also HOTPLUG_CPU is much more common now so let's care not too much about the !hotplug case. Cc: nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au Signed-off-by:

Needed for some newer Opteron systems with E stepping and memory relocation enabled. The node addresses are different in lower bits now so the nodemap hash function needs to be enlarged. Signed-off-by:

As noted by matz@suse.de The problem is, that on i386 the syscallN macro is defined like so: long __res; \ __asm__ volatile ("int $0x80" \ : "=a" (__res) \ : "0" (__NR_##name),"b" ((long)(arg1)),"c" ((long)(arg2)), \ "d" ((long)(arg3)),"S" ((long)(arg4)),"D" ((long)(arg5))); \ If one of the arguments (in the _llseek syscall it's the arg4) is a pointer which the syscall is expected to write to (to the memory pointed to by this ptr), then this side-effect is not captured in the asm. If anyone uses this macro to define it's own version of the syscall (sometimes necessary when not using glibc) and it's inlined, then GCC doesn't know that this asm write to "*dest", when called like so for instance: out = 1; llseek (fd, bla, blubb, &out, trara) use (out); Here nobody tells GCC that "out" actually is written to (just a pointer to it is passed to the asm). Hence GCC might (and in the above bug did) copy-propagate "1" into the second use of "out". The easiest solution would be to add a "memory" clobber to the definition of this syscall macro. As this is a syscall, it shouldn't inhibit too many optimizations. Signed-off-by: -

The global bit was not set in the first 2MB page, instead it had a bit in the free AVL section which is useless. Fixed thus. Noticed by Eric Biederman Cc: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by:

x86_64 idle=poll might be a little less responsive than it should: unlike mwait_idle, and unlike i386, its poll_idle left TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG set. Signed-off-by:

The generic TLB flush functions kept upto 506 pages per CPU to avoid too frequent IPIs. This value was done for the L1 cache of older x86 CPUs, but with modern CPUs it does not make much sense anymore. TLB flushing is slow enough that using the L2 cache is fine. This patch increases the flush array on x86-64 to cache 5350 pages. That is roughly 20MB with 4K pages. It speeds up large munmaps in multithreaded processes on SMP considerably. The cost is roughly 42k of memory per CPU, which is reasonable. I only increased it on x86-64 for now, but it would probably make sense to increase it everywhere. Embedded architectures with SMP may keep it smaller to save some memory per CPU. Signed-off-by:

Instead of using a global spinlock to protect the state of the remote TLB flush use a lock and state for each sending CPU. To tell the receiver where to look for the state use 8 different call vectors. Each CPU uses a specific vector to trigger flushes on other CPUs. Depending on the received vector the target CPUs look into the right per cpu variable for the flush data. When the system has more than 8 CPUs they are hashed to the 8 available vectors. The limited global vector space forces us to this right now. In future when interrupts are split into per CPU domains this could be fixed, at the cost of needing more IPIs in flat mode. Also some minor cleanup in the smp flush code and remove some outdated debug code. Requires patch to move cpu_possible_map setup earlier. Signed-off-by:

If we use 64bit kernel on ia64/x86_64/s390 architecture, and we run 32bit binary on 32bit compatibility mode, sendfile system call seems be not set offset argument. This is because sendfile's return value is not zero but the code regards the result by return value is zero or not. This problem will be affect to ia64/x86_64/s390 and not affect to other architecture does not affect other architecture (mips/parisc/ppc64/sparc64). Signed-off-by:

This leads to bootmem allocating first from node 0 instead of from the last node. This avoids swiotlb allocating on the last node, which doesn't really work on a machine with >4GB. Note: there is a better patch around from someone else that gets rid of the pgdat list completely. Signed-off-by:

In particular on systems where the local APIC space and node space is very different from the Linux CPU number space. Previously the older NUMA setup code directly parsing the K8 northbridge registers had some issues on 8 socket or dual core systems. This patch fixes them. This is mainly done by fixing some confusion between Linux CPU numbers and local APIC ids. We now pass the local APIC IDs to later code, which avoids mismatches. Also add some heuristics to detect cases where the Hypertransport nodeids and the local APIC IDs don't match, but are shifted by a constant offset. This is still all quite hackish, hopefully BIOS writers fill in correct SRATs instead. Signed-off-by:
