[PATCH] disable addres space randomization default on transmeta CPUs

We know that the randomisation slows down some workloads on Transmeta CPUs
by quite large amounts.  We think it's because the CPU needs to recode the
same x86 instructions when they pop up at a different virtual address after
a fork+exec.

So disable randomization by default on those CPUs.

Fix get_user_pages() race for write access

There's no real guarantee that handle_mm_fault() will always be able to
break a COW situation - if an update from another thread ends up
modifying the page table some way, handle_mm_fault() may end up
requiring us to re-try the operation.

That's normally fine, but get_user_pages() ended up re-trying it as a
read, and thus a write access could in theory end up losing the dirty
bit or be done on a page that had not been properly COW'ed.

This makes get_user_pages() always retry write accesses as write
accesses by making "follow_page()" require that a writable follow has
the dirty bit set.  That simplifies the code and solves the race: if the

Ingo Molnar [Mon, 1 Aug 2005 11:39:13 +0000 (13:39 +0200)]
[PATCH] remove sys_set_zone_reclaim()

This removes sys_set_zone_reclaim() for now.  While i'm sure Martin is
trying to solve a real problem, we must not hard-code an incomplete and
insufficient approach into a syscall, because syscalls are pretty much
for eternity.  I am quite strongly convinced that this syscall must not
hit v2.6.13 in its current form.

Firstly, the syscall lacks basic syscall design: e.g. it allows the
global setting of VM policy for unprivileged users. (!) [ Imagine an
Oracle installation and a SAP installation on the same NUMA box fighting
over the 'optimal' setting for this flag. What will they do? Will they
try to set the flag to their own preferred value every second or so? ]

Secondly, it was added based on a single datapoint from Martin:

 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=111763597218177&w=2

where Martin characterizes the numbers the following way:

 ' Run-to-run variability for "make -j" is huge, so these numbers aren't
   terribly useful except to see that with reclaim the benchmark still
   finishes in a reasonable amount of time. '

in other words: the fundamental problem has likely not been solved, only
a tendential move into the right direction has been observed, and a
handful of numbers were picked out of a set of hugely variable results,
without showing the variability data. How much variance is there
run-to-run?

I'd really suggest to first walk the walk and see what's needed to get
stable & predictable kernel compilation numbers on that NUMA box, before
adding random syscalls to tune a particular aspect of the VM ... which
approach might not even matter once the whole picture has been analyzed
and understood!

The third, most important point is that the syscall exposes VM tuning
internals in a completely unstructured way. What sense does it make to
have a _GLOBAL_ per-node setting for 'should we go to another node for
reclaim'? If then it might make sense to do this per-app, via numalib or
so.

The change is minimalistic in that it doesnt remove the syscall and the
underlying infrastructure changes, only the user-visible changes.  We
could perhaps add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN-only sysctl for this hack, a'ka
/proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but even that looks quite counterproductive
when the generic approach is that we are trying to reduce the number of
external factors in the VM balance picture.

has been set.  This patch only touches the path used for Intel chipsets

others.

[PATCH] Fix sync_tsc hang

sync_tsc was using smp_call_function to ask the boot processor to report
it's tsc value.  smp_call_function performs an IPI_send_allbutself which is
a broadcast ipi.  There is a window during processor startup during which
the target cpu has started and before it has initialized it's interrupt
vectors so it can properly process an interrupt.  Receveing an interrupt
during that window will triple fault the cpu and do other nasty things.

Why cli does not protect us from that is beyond me.

The simple fix is to match ia64 and provide a smp_call_function_single.
Which avoids the broadcast and is more efficient.

This stuff actually is a leftover of an early 2.4 PCI setup code

So the best thing we can do is just to remove it and rely on the fact
that any firmware *has* to configure VGA port forwarding for the boot
display device properly.

contain valid information collected at the probe time, therefore
the following change in pci_scan_bridge() is needed.

[ACPI] Fix the regression with c1_default_handler on some systems
where C-states come from FADT.

Thanks to Kevin Radloff for identifying the issue and
isolating it to exact line of code that is causing the issue.

19 years ago[PATCH] x86_64 machine_kexec: Cleanup inline assembly.

[PATCH] x86_64 machine_kexec: Cleanup inline assembly.

In an uncensored copy of code from i386 to x86_64 I wound up
with inline assembly with the wrong constraints.  Use input
constraints instead of output constraints.

So I know the assembler will do the right thing specify the size
of the operand lidtq and lgdtq instead of just lidt and lgdt.

Make load_segments use an input constraint, and delete the macro fun.
Without having to reload %cs like I do on i386 this code is noticeably
simpler.
