[PATCH] m68k: fix PIO case in esp

we always set ->SCp.ptr to physical address of buffer; for DMA that's
just what we need, but we end up using it as virtual address in PIO
case of esp_do_data(), with obvious breakage as soon as memory mapping
becomes non-trivial.  The fix is obvious.

[PATCH] missing helper - task_stack_page()

Patchset annotates arch/* uses of ->thread_info.  Ones that really are about
access of thread_info of given process are simply switched to
task_thread_info(task); ones that deal with access to objects on stack are
switched to new helper - task_stack_page().  A _lot_ of the latter are
actually open-coded instances of "find where pt_regs are"; those are
consolidated into task_pt_regs(task) (many architectures actually have such
helper already).

Note that these annotations are not mandatory - any code not converted to
these helpers still works.  However, they clean up a lot of places and have
actually caught a number of bugs, so converting out of tree ports would be a
good idea...

As an example of breakage caught by that stuff, see i386 pt_regs mess - we
used to have it open-coded in a bunch of places and when back in April Stas
had fixed a bug in copy_thread(), the rest had been left out of sync.  That
required two followup patches (the latest - just before 2.6.15) _and_ still
had left /proc/*/stat eip field broken.  Try ps -eo eip on i386 and watch the
junk...

This patch:

new helper - task_stack_page(task).  Returns pointer to the memory object
containing task stack; usually thread_info of task sits in the beginning
of that object.

Track the last waker CPU, and only consider wakeup-balancing if there's a
match between current waker CPU and the previous waker CPU.  This ensures
that there is some correlation between two subsequent wakeup events before

[PATCH] scheduler cache-hot-autodetect

\r)

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This is the latest version of the scheduler cache-hot-auto-tune patch.

The first problem was that detection time scaled with O(N^2), which is
unacceptable on larger SMP and NUMA systems. To solve this:

- I've added a 'domain distance' function, which is used to cache
  measurement results. Each distance is only measured once. This means
  that e.g. on NUMA distances of 0, 1 and 2 might be measured, on HT
  distances 0 and 1, and on SMP distance 0 is measured. The code walks
  the domain tree to determine the distance, so it automatically follows
  whatever hierarchy an architecture sets up. This cuts down on the boot
  time significantly and removes the O(N^2) limit. The only assumption
  is that migration costs can be expressed as a function of domain
  distance - this covers the overwhelming majority of existing systems,
  and is a good guess even for more assymetric systems.

  [ People hacking systems that have assymetries that break this
    assumption (e.g. different CPU speeds) should experiment a bit with
    the cpu_distance() function. Adding a ->migration_distance factor to
    the domain structure would be one possible solution - but lets first
    see the problem systems, if they exist at all. Lets not overdesign. ]

Another problem was that only a single cache-size was used for measuring
the cost of migration, and most architectures didnt set that variable
up. Furthermore, a single cache-size does not fit NUMA hierarchies with
L3 caches and does not fit HT setups, where different CPUs will often
have different 'effective cache sizes'. To solve this problem:

- Instead of relying on a single cache-size provided by the platform and
  sticking to it, the code now auto-detects the 'effective migration
  cost' between two measured CPUs, via iterating through a wide range of
  cachesizes. The code searches for the maximum migration cost, which
  occurs when the working set of the test-workload falls just below the
  'effective cache size'. I.e. real-life optimized search is done for
  the maximum migration cost, between two real CPUs.

  This, amongst other things, has the positive effect hat if e.g. two
  CPUs share a L2/L3 cache, a different (and accurate) migration cost
  will be found than between two CPUs on the same system that dont share
  any caches.

(The reliable measurement of migration costs is tricky - see the source
for details.)

Furthermore i've added various boot-time options to override/tune
migration behavior.

Firstly, there's a blanket override for autodetection:

migration_cost=1000,2000,3000

will override the depth 0/1/2 values with 1msec/2msec/3msec values.

Secondly, there's a global factor that can be used to increase (or
decrease) the autodetected values:

migration_factor=120

will increase the autodetected values by 20%. This option is useful to
tune things in a workload-dependent way - e.g. if a workload is
cache-insensitive then CPU utilization can be maximized by specifying
migration_factor=0.

I've tested the autodetection code quite extensively on x86, on 3
P3/Xeon/2MB, and the autodetected values look pretty good:

Dual Celeron (128K L2 cache):

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 131072, cpu: 467 MHz):
 ---------------------
           [00]    [01]
 [00]:     -     1.7(1)
 [01]:   1.7(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 1.7 (1784008)
 ---------------------

Here the slow memory subsystem dominates system performance, and even
though caches are small, the migration cost is 1.7 msecs.

Dual HT P4 (512K L2 cache):

 ---------------------
 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 524288, cpu: 2379 MHz):
 ---------------------
           [00]    [01]    [02]    [03]
 [00]:     -     0.4(1)  0.0(0)  0.4(1)
 [01]:   0.4(1)    -     0.4(1)  0.0(0)
 [02]:   0.0(0)  0.4(1)    -     0.4(1)
 [03]:   0.4(1)  0.0(0)  0.4(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (33900) 0.4 (448514)
 ---------------------

Here it can be seen that there is no migration cost between two HT
siblings (CPU#0/2 and CPU#1/3 are separate physical CPUs). A fast memory
system makes inter-physical-CPU migration pretty cheap: 0.4 msecs.

8-way P3/Xeon [2MB L2 cache]:

 migration cost matrix (max_cache_size: 2097152, cpu: 700 MHz):

 [06]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -    19.2(1)
 [07]:  19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1) 19.2(1)    -
 ---------------------
 cacheflush times [2]: 0.0 (0) 19.2 (19281756)
 ---------------------

This one has huge caches and a relatively slow memory subsystem - so the
migration cost is 19 msecs.

[PATCH] fix queue stalling while barrier sequencing

If ordered tag isn't supported, request ordering for barrier
sequencing is performed by queue draining, which basically hangs the
request queue until elv_completed_request() reports completion of all
previous fs requests.

The condition check in elv_completed_request() was only performed for
fs requests.  If a special request is queued between the last
to-be-drained request and the barrier sequence, draining is never
completed and the queue is stalled forever.

This patch moves the end-of-draining condition check such that it's
performed for all requests.

o This patch fixes the problem of secondary cpus boot up. This situation
  is faced when kernel is built for default locations like 16MB and
  onwards. In this configuration, only primary cpu (BP) comes and

o Problem occurs because in trampoline code, lgdt is not able to load the
  GDT as it happens to be situated beyond 16MB. This is due to the fact
  that cpu is still in real mode and default operand size is 16bit.
