5f619c5ba5 [SCSI] scsi_devinfo: add Tornado
This is from RHEL4. I do not have any info from our bugzilla. All
I could find was something like this thread
http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/1/7/346

Report lun for linux does not work. It may be our lun format code or
it may be the device. It is probably not worth it to add anything
special for this device, so the patch just adds BLIST_NOREPORTLUN.

fb4f66be59 [SCSI] stex: add new device (id 0x8650) support
A new device (id 0x8650, nickname 'yosemite') support is added.
It's basically the same, except for following items:
- mapping of id and lun by firmware
- special handling for some commands in interrupt routine
- change of internal copy function for these special commands
- different reset handling code
- different shutdown notification command

a6b93a9085 [SERIAL] Fix oops when removing suspended serial port
A serial card might have been removed when the system is resumed.
This results in a suspended port being shut down, which results in
the ports shutdown method being called twice in a row.  This causes
BUGs.  Avoid this by tracking the suspended state separately from

bcf5111a58 [SERIAL] Remove wrong asm/serial.h inclusions
asm/serial.h is supposed to contain the definitions for the architecture
specific 8250 ports for the 8250 driver.  It may also define BASE_BAUD,
but this is the base baud for the architecture specific ports _only_.

Therefore, nothing other than the 8250 driver should be including this
header file.  In order to move towards this goal, here is a patch which
removes some of the more obvious incorrect includes of the file.

It also turns out, there was one pte update in PAE mode that wasn't using any
accessor interface at all for setting NX protection.  Considering it is PAE
specific, and the accessor is i386 specific, I didn't want to add a generic
encapsulation of this behavior yet.

a93cb055a2 [PATCH] paravirt: remove set pte atomic
Now that ptep_establish has a definition in PAE i386 3-level paging code, the
only paging model which is insane enough to have multi-word hardware PTEs
which are not efficient to set atomically, we can remove the ghost of
set_pte_atomic from other architectures which falesly duplicated it, and
remove all knowledge of it from the generic pgtable code.

set_pte_atomic is now a private pte operator which is specific to i386

d6d861e3c9 [PATCH] paravirt: optimize ptep establish for pae
The ptep_establish macro is only used on user-level PTEs, for P->P mapping
changes.  Since these always happen under protection of the pagetable lock,
the strong synchronization of a 64-bit cmpxchg is not needed, in fact, not
even a lock prefix needs to be used.  We can simply instead clear the P-bit,
followed by a normal set.  The write ordering is still important to avoid the
possibility of the TLB snooping a partially written PTE and getting a bad
mapping installed.

23002d88be [PATCH] paravirt: kpte flush
Create a new PTE function which combines clearing a kernel PTE with the
subsequent flush.  This allows the two to be easily combined into a single
hypercall or paravirt-op.  More subtly, reverse the order of the flush for
kmap_atomic.  Instead of flushing on establishing a mapping, flush on clearing
a mapping.  This eliminates the possibility of leaving stale kmap entries
which may still have valid TLB mappings.  This is required for direct mode
hypervisors, which need to reprotect all mappings of a given page when
changing the page type from a normal page to a protected page (such as a page
table or descriptor table page).  But it also provides some nicer semantics
for real hardware, by providing extra debug-proofing against using stale
mappings, as well as ensuring that no stale mappings exist when changing the
cacheability attributes of a page, which could lead to cache conflicts when
two different types of mappings exist for the same page.

25e4df5bae [PATCH] paravirt: combine flush accessed dirty.patch
Remove ptep_test_and_clear_{dirty|young} from i386, and instead use the
dominating functions, ptep_clear_flush_{dirty|young}.  This allows the TLB
page flush to be contained in the same macro, and allows for an eager
optimization - if reading the PTE initially returned dirty/accessed, we can
assume the fact that no subsequent update to the PTE which cleared accessed /
dirty has occurred, as the only way A/D bits can change without holding the
page table lock is if a remote processor clears them.  This eliminates an
extra branch which came from the generic version of the code, as we know that
no other CPU could have cleared the A/D bit, so the flush will always be
needed.

We still export these two defines, even though we do not actually define
the macros in the i386 code:

 #define __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_TEST_AND_CLEAR_YOUNG
 #define __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_TEST_AND_CLEAR_DIRTY

The reason for this is that the only use of these functions is within the
generic clear_flush functions, and we want a strong guarantee that there
are no other users of these functions, so we want to prevent the generic
code from defining them for us.

6606c3e0da [PATCH] paravirt: lazy mmu mode hooks.patch
Implement lazy MMU update hooks which are SMP safe for both direct and shadow
page tables.  The idea is that PTE updates and page invalidations while in
lazy mode can be batched into a single hypercall.  We use this in VMI for
shadow page table synchronization, and it is a win.  It also can be used by
PPC and for direct page tables on Xen.

For SMP, the enter / leave must happen under protection of the page table
locks for page tables which are being modified.  This is because otherwise,
you end up with stale state in the batched hypercall, which other CPUs can
race ahead of.  Doing this under the protection of the locks guarantees the
synchronization is correct, and also means that spurious faults which are
generated during this window by remote CPUs are properly handled, as the page
fault handler must re-check the PTE under protection of the same lock.
