We call lmb_end_of_DRAM() to test whether a DMA mask is ok on a machine
without IOMMU, but this function is marked as __init.
I don't think there's a clean way to get the top of RAM max_pfn doesn't
appear to include highmem or I missed (or we have a bug :-) so for now,
let's just avoid having a broken 2.6.31 by making this function
non-__init and we can revisit later.

It's problematic to allow signed element_nr's or total's to be passed as
part of the flex array API.
flex_array_alloc() allows total_nr_elements to be set to a negative
quantity, which is obviously erroneous.
flex_array_get() and flex_array_put() allows negative array indices in
dereferencing an array part, which could address memory mapped before
struct flex_array.
The fix is to convert all existing element_nr formals to be qualified as
unsigned. Existing checks to compare it to total_nr_elements or the max
array size based on element_size need not be changed.

If all array elements fit into the base structure and data is copied using
flex_array_put() starting at a non-zero index, flex_array_get() will fail
to return the data.
This fixes the bug by only checking for NULL parts when all elements do
not fit in the base structure when flex_array_get() is used. Otherwise,
fa_element_to_part_nr() will always be 0 since there are no parts
structures needed and such element may never have been put. Thus, it will
remain NULL due to the kzalloc() of the base.
Additionally, flex_array_put() now only checks for a NULL part when all
elements do not fit in the base structure. This is otherwise unnecessary
since the base structure is guaranteed to exist (or we would have already
hit a NULL pointer).

Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

When 'and'ing two bitmasks (where 'andnot' is a variation on it), some
cases want to know whether the result is the empty set or not. In
particular, the TLB IPI sending code wants to do cpumask operations and
determine if there are any CPU's left in the final set.
So this just makes the bitmask (and cpumask) functions return a boolean
for whether the result has any bits set.

swiotlb_full() in lib/swiotlb.c throws one of two panic messages
based on whether the direction of transfer is from the device
or to the device. The logic around this is somewhat weird in
the case of bidirectional transfers. It appears to want to
throw both in succession, but since its a panic only the first
makes it.
This patch adds a third, separate error for DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL
to make things a bit clearer.

While it's debatable whether or not a NULL device argument to
the DMA API functions is valid... since it certainly isn't
valid on devices with an IOMMU... dma-debug really shouldn't be
dereferencing null pointers either.
Guard against that in err_printk and the driver_filter
functions. A Fedora rawhide user was seeing this in one of the
dvb drivers resulting in an oops on boot.
[ A patch has been sent for testing to the driver, but I feel
the dma debugging support should be fixed as well. (There's
still a pile of legacy garbage in the kernel passing null
pointers to dma_{alloc,free}_*. :( ]

this is not necessary when used to create a compressed kernel, and
actually creates issues (brings a lot of things unavailable in the
decompression environment), so don't include it if STATIC is defined.

decompress_bunzip2 and decompress_unlzma have a nasty hack that subtracts
4 from the input length if being called in the pre-boot environment.
This is a nasty hack because it relies on the fact that flush = NULL only
when called from the pre-boot environment (i.e.
arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c). initramfs.c/do_mounts_rd.c pass in a
flush buffer (flush != NULL).
This hack prevents the decompressors from being used with flush = NULL by
other callers unless knowledge of the hack is propagated to them.
This patch removes the hack by making decompress (called only from the
pre-boot environment) a wrapper function that subtracts 4 from the input
length before calling the decompressor.

sg_miter_start() is currently unaware of the direction of the copy
process (to or from the scatter list). It is important to know the
direction because the page has to be flushed in case the data written
is seen on a different mapping in user land on cache incoherent

Once a structure goes over PAGE_SIZE*2, we see occasional allocation
failures. Some people have chosen to switch over to things like vmalloc()
that will let them keep array-like access to such a large structures.
But, vmalloc() has plenty of downsides.
Here's an alternative. I think it's what Andrew was suggesting here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/2/518
I call it a flexible array. It does all of its work in PAGE_SIZE bits, so
never does an order>0 allocation. The base level has
PAGE_SIZE-2*sizeof(int) bytes of storage for pointers to the second level.
So, with a 32-bit arch, you get about 4MB (4183112 bytes) of total
storage when the objects pack nicely into a page. It is half that on
64-bit because the pointers are twice the size. There's a table detailing
this in the code.
There are kerneldocs for the functions, but here's an
overview:
flex_array_alloc() - dynamically allocate a base structure
flex_array_free() - free the array and all of the
second-level pages
flex_array_free_parts() - free the second-level pages, but
not the base (for static bases)
flex_array_put() - copy into the array at the given index
flex_array_get() - copy out of the array at the given index
flex_array_prealloc() - preallocate the second-level pages
between the given indexes to
guarantee no allocs will occur at
put() time.
We could also potentially just pass the "element_size" into each of the
API functions instead of storing it internally. That would get us one
more base pointer on 32-bit.
I've been testing this by running it in userspace. The header and patch
that I've been using are here, as well as the little script I'm using to
generate the size table which goes in the kerneldocs.

The generic atomic64_t implementation in lib/ did not export the functions
it defined, which means that modules that use atomic64_t would not link on
platforms (such as 32-bit powerpc). For example, trying to build a kernel
with CONFIG_NET_RDS on such a platform would fail with:
ERROR: "atomic64_read" [net/rds/rds.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "atomic64_set" [net/rds/rds.ko] undefined!
Fix this by exporting the atomic64_t functions to modules. (I export the
entire API even if it's not all currently used by in-tree modules to avoid
having to continue fixing this in dribs and drabs)
