With the latest 2.6.15 kernel builds for alpha on Debian, we ran into a
problem with undefined references to __cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer() in
a couple of kernel modules (xfs.ko and drm.ko; see
http://bugs.debian.org/347556).
It looks like people have been trying to out-clever each other wrt the
definition of "inline" on this architecture :), with the result that
__cmpxchg(), which must be inlined so the compiler can see its argument is
const, is not guaranteed to be inlined. Indeed, it was not being inlined
when building with -Os.
The attached patch fixes the issue by adding an
__attribute__((always_inline)) explicitly to the definition of __cmpxchg()
instead of relying on redefines of "inline" elsewhere to make this happen.

This does not show up unless you #define DEBUG in the file, which most
people wouldn't do. On PPC405, at least, "sector_t" is unsigned long,
which doesn't match %llx/%llu. Since sector# may well be >32 bits, promote
the value to match the format.

had an obvious problem that causes a deadlock on reboot recovery. Sending

When hugepages are newly allocated to a file in mm/hugetlb.c, we clear them
with a call to clear_highpage() on each of the subpages. We should be
using clear_user_highpage(): on powerpc, at least, clear_highpage() doesn't
correctly mark the page as icache dirty so if the page is executed shortly
after it's possible to get strange results.

Currently, x86_64 and ia64 arches do not clear the corresponding bits in
the node's cpumask when a cpu goes down or cpu bring up is cancelled. This
is buggy since there are pieces of common code where the cpumask is checked
in the cpu down code path to decide on things (like in the slab down path).
PPC does the right thing, but x86_64 and ia64 don't (This was the reason
Sonny hit upon a slab bug during cpu offline on ppc and could not reproduce
on other arches). This patch fixes it for x86_64. I won't attempt ia64 as
I cannot test it.
Credit for spotting this should go to Alok.
(akpm: this was applied, then reverted. But it's OK now because we now use
for_each_cpu() in the right places).

- Remove unneeded bio_get() which would cause a bio leak
- Writing doesn't dirty pages. Reading dirties pages.
- We should dirty the pages after the IO completion, not before
(Busy-waiting for disk I/O completion isn't very polite.)

I've noticed that PCI clock was incorrectly reported as 66 MHz while being
mere 33 MHz on RBTX4937 board -- this was due to the different encoding of
the PCI divisor field in CCFG register between TX4927 and TX4937 chips...
Also, RBTX49x7 was printed out as a CPU name (e.g., "CPU is RBTX4937");
and some debug printk() were duplicating each other...

If mfc0 $12 follows store and the mfc0 is last instruction of a
page and fetching the next instruction causes TLB miss, the result
of the mfc0 might wrongly contain EXL bit.
ERT-TX49H2-027, ERT-TX49H3-012, ERT-TX49HL3-006, ERT-TX49H4-008
Workaround: mask EXL bit of the result or place a nop before mfc0. It
doesn't harm to always clear those bits, so we change the code to do so.

Very much to my surprise Fuxin Zhang reports this is all it takes to get
the kernel to work for page sizes larger than 4kB. This also paves the
way for support for the R6000 and R8000 which don't support 4kB page size.

I'm pretty sure that the CKSEG0 bits are wrong, but I did need to
cover that region - because the SB-1 kernel links at 0xffffffff80100000
or so, disassembly and printing static variables don't work unless the
debugger can read that region.

it does if no keyboard is attached.
This patch adds a check if ConsoleOut is serial. There might also be

Fix a really old buglet in AMD Au1xx0 restart code: instead of
modifying the whole CP0 Config.K0 field to 010b (meaning KSEG0 uncached)
before flushing the caches and resetting a board, it only sets bit 1 of that
reg. which is effectively a NOP since Config.K0 == 011b as the kernel sets it
