[PATCH] correct slow acpi_pm rating
On Bob's machine clocksource is selecting PIT over the ACPI PM timer,
because he has the PIIX4 bug. That bug drops the ACPI PM timers rating
to the same as the PIT, so that's why you're getting the PIT.
Realistically, the PIT is much slower then even the triple read ACPI PM,
so the de-ranking code is probably dropping it too far.
So don't drop ACPI PM quite so low if we see the PIIX4 bug.

crash on some architectures.
Use the TG3_FLAG_CHIP_RESETTING flag to tell the irq handler to exit

[IPV6]: Fix routing round-robin locking.
As per RFC2461, section 6.3.6, item #2, when no routers on the
matching list are known to be reachable or probably reachable we
do round robin on those available routes so that we make sure
to probe as many of them as possible to detect when one becomes
reachable faster.
Each routing table has a rwlock protecting the tree and the linked
list of routes at each leaf. The round robin code executes during
lookup and thus with the rwlock taken as a reader. A small local
spinlock tries to provide protection but this does not work at all
for two reasons:
1) The round-robin list manipulation, as coded, goes like this (with
read lock held):
walk routes finding head and tail
spin_lock();
rotate list using head and tail
spin_unlock();
While one thread is rotating the list, another thread can
end up with stale values of head and tail and then proceed
to corrupt the list when it gets the lock. This ends up causing
the OOPS in fib6_add() later onthat many people have been hitting.
2) All the other code paths that run with the rwlock held as
a reader do not expect the list to change on them, they
expect it to remain completely fixed while they hold the
lock in that way.
So, simply stated, it is impossible to implement this correctly using
a manipulation of the list without violating the rwlock locking
semantics.
Reimplement using a per-fib6_node round-robin pointer. This way we
don't need to manipulate the list at all, and since the round-robin
pointer can only ever point to real existing entries we don't need
to perform any locking on the changing of the round-robin pointer
itself. We only need to reset the round-robin pointer to NULL when
the entry it is pointing to is removed.
The idea is from Thomas Graf and it is very similar to how this
was implemented before the advanced router selection code when in.

Based upon a patch from Patrick McHardy.
The fib_rules netlink attribute policy introduced in 2.6.19 broke
userspace compatibilty. When specifying a rule with "from all"
or "to all", iproute adds a zero byte long netlink attribute,
but the policy requires all addresses to have a size equal to
sizeof(struct in_addr)/sizeof(struct in6_addr), resulting in a
validation error.
Check attribute length of FRA_SRC/FRA_DST in the generic framework
by letting the family specific rules implementation provide the
length of an address. Report an error if address length is non
zero but no address attribute is provided. Fix actual bug by
checking address length for non-zero instead of relying on
availability of attribute.

[PATCH] clocksource: Fix thinko in watchdog selection
The watchdog implementation excludes low res / non continuous
clocksources from being selected as a watchdog reference
unintentionally.
Allow using jiffies/PIT as a watchdog reference as long as no better
clocksource is available. This is necessary to detect TSC breakage on
systems, which have no pmtimer/hpet.
The main goal of the initial patch (preventing to switch to highres/nohz
when no reliable fallback clocksource is available) is still guaranteed
by the checks in clocksource_watchdog().

[PATCH] dynticks: fix hrtimer rounding error in next_timer_interrupt
The rework of next_timer_interrupt() fixed the timer wheel bugs, but
invented a rounding error versus the next hrtimer event. This is caused
by the conversion of the hrtimer internal representation to relative
jiffies.
This causes bug #8100:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8100
next_timer_interrupt() returns "now" in such a case and causes the code
in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to trigger the timer softirq, which is
bogus as no timer is due for expiry. This results in an endless context
switching between idle and ksoftirqd until a timer is due for expiry.
Modify the hrtimer evaluation so that, it returns now + 1, when the
conversion results in a delta < 1 jiffie.
It's confirmed to resolve bug #8100

The SCL line is in fact bidirectional and can also be configured as 117 | GPIO_ALT_FN_1_IN, in which case the pulse is not generated. This is exactly what this patch does.

[PATCH] x86_64: avoid sending LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR IPI to itself
Ray Lee reported, that on an UP kernel with "noapic" command line option
set, the box locks hard during boot.
Adding some debug printks revealed, that the last action on the box
before stalling was "Send IPI" - a debug printk which was put into
smp_send_timer_broadcast_ipi().
It seems that send_IPI_mask(mask, LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR) fails when
"noapic" is set on the command line on an UP kernel.
Aside of that it does not make much sense to trigger an interrupt
instead of calling the function directly on the CPU which gets the
PIT/HPET interrupt in case of broadcasting.

[PATCH] i386: clear segment register padding in core dumps
The segment register slots in struct pt_regs are padded to 32 bits.
Some of these are stored with instructions like "pushl %es", which
leaves the high 16 bits as they were. So the high bits of these
fields in struct pt_regs contain kernel stack garbage. These bits are
ignored by everything and never leak to user space, except in core
dumps. The user struct pt_regs is always at the base of the thread's
kernel stack and so it seems unlikely the information that leaks from
here is ever worthwhile so as to be a security concern, but I'm not
sure about that. It has been this way for ages; userland consumers of
core dumps all mask off these high bits themselves. So it is not urgent.
This change masks off the padding bits of the segment register slots
in core dumps. ptrace already masks off these high bits, so this
makes the values in core dumps consistent with what ptrace would
report just before the process died.
As I read the processor manuals, the cs and ss values will always be
padded with zero bits rather than stack garbage. But unlike "pushl %es",
this is not simple to test with a userland program. So I added the two
instructions rather than wonder if they are really never necessary.
I think that x86_64 does not have this problem (for either 32-bit or
64-bit processes). It only uses "mov" instructions from segment
registers, which zero-extend.
