Handle update_mmu_cache() being called when current->mm is NULL.
We cache static TLB mappings for the current page table in DAMPR4 and DAMPR5
on the theory that the next data lookup is likely to be in the same general
region, and thus is likely to be mapped by the same page table. However, we
can't get this information if we can't access the appropriate mm_struct.
If current->mm is NULL, we just clear the cache in the knowledge that the TLB
miss handlers will load it.

Allow the use of SACK and window scaling when syncookies are used
and the client supports tcp timestamps. Options are encoded into
the timestamp sent in the syn-ack and restored from the timestamp
echo when the ack is received.
Based on earlier work by Glenn Griffin.
This patch avoids increasing the size of structs by encoding TCP
options into the least significant bits of the timestamp and
by not using any 'timestamp offset'.
The downside is that the timestamp sent in the packet after the synack
will increase by several seconds.
changes since v1:
don't duplicate timestamp echo decoding function, put it into ipv4/syncookie.c
and have ipv6/syncookies.c use it.

SKF_ADF_NLATTR searches for a netlink attribute, which avoids manually
parsing and walking attributes. It takes the offset at which to start
searching in the 'A' register and the attribute type in the 'X' register
and returns the offset in the 'A' register. When the attribute is not
found it returns zero.
A top-level attribute can be located using a filter like this
(example for nfnetlink, using struct nfgenmsg):
...
{
/* A = offset of first attribute */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_IMM,
.k = sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) + sizeof(struct nfgenmsg)
},
{
/* X = CTA_PROTOINFO */
.code = BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM,
.k = CTA_PROTOINFO,
},
{
/* A = netlink attribute offset */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS,
.k = SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR
},
{
/* Exit if not found */
.code = BPF_JMP | BPF_JEQ | BPF_K,
.k = 0,
.jt = <error>
},
...
A nested attribute below the CTA_PROTOINFO attribute would then
be parsed like this:
...
{
/* A += sizeof(struct nlattr) */
.code = BPF_ALU | BPF_ADD | BPF_K,
.k = sizeof(struct nlattr),
},
{
/* X = CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP */
.code = BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM,
.k = CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP,
},
{
/* A = netlink attribute offset */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS,
.k = SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR
},
...
The data of an attribute can be loaded into 'A' like this:
...
{
/* X = A (attribute offset) */
.code = BPF_MISC | BPF_TAX,
},
{
/* A = skb->data[X + k] */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_IND,
.k = sizeof(struct nlattr),
},
...

Add kprobe-booster support on ia64.
Kprobe-booster improves the performance of kprobes by eliminating single-step,
where possible. Currently, kprobe-booster is implemented on x86 and x86-64.
This is an ia64 port.
On ia64, kprobe-booster executes a copied bundle directly, instead of single
stepping. Bundles which have B or X unit and which may cause an exception
(including break) are not executed directly. And also, to prevent hitting
break exceptions on the copied bundle, only the hindmost kprobe is executed
directly if several kprobes share a bundle and are placed in different slots.
Note: set_brl_inst() is used for preparing an instruction buffer(it does not
modify any active code), so it does not need any atomic operation.

This fixes Bugzilla #10384
tcp_simple_retransmit does L increment without any checking
whatsoever for overflowing S+L when Reno is in use.
The simplest scenario I can currently think of is rather
complex in practice (there might be some more straightforward
cases though). Ie., if mss is reduced during mtu probing, it
may end up marking everything lost and if some duplicate ACKs
arrived prior to that sacked_out will be non-zero as well,
leading to S+L > packets_out, tcp_clean_rtx_queue on the next
cumulative ACK or tcp_fastretrans_alert on the next duplicate
ACK will fix the S counter.
More straightforward (but questionable) solution would be to
just call tcp_reset_reno_sack() in tcp_simple_retransmit but
it would negatively impact the probe's retransmission, ie.,
the retransmissions would not occur if some duplicate ACKs
had arrived.
So I had to add reno sacked_out reseting to CA_Loss state
when the first cumulative ACK arrives (this stale sacked_out
might actually be the explanation for the reports of left_out
overflows in kernel prior to 2.6.23 and S+L overflow reports
of 2.6.24). However, this alone won't be enough to fix kernel
before 2.6.24 because it is building on top of the commit
1b6d427bb7 ([TCP]: Reduce sacked_out with reno when purging
write_queue) to keep the sacked_out from overflowing.

The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host
we don't need callbacks now. As it is not reliable, the debug check is
overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time. Document this.
Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable
callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance
protection can be easily tripped even on UP.

Every current transport class calls transport_container_release but
ignores the return value. This is catastrophic if it returns an error
because the containers are part of a global list and the next action of
almost every transport class is to free the memory used by the
container.
Fix this by making transport_container_release a void, but making it BUG
if attribute_container_release returns an error ... this catches the
root cause of a system panic much earlier. If we don't do this, we get
an eventual BUG when the attribute container list notices the corruption
caused by the freed memory it's still referencing.
Also made attribute_container_release __must_check as a reminder.

The problem is that serveral drivers are sending a target reset from the
device reset handler, and if we have multiple devices a target reset gets
sent for each device when only one would be sufficient. And if we do a target
reset it affects all the commands on the target so the device reset handler
code only cleaning up one devices's commands makes programming the driver a
little more difficult than it should be.
This patch adds a target reset handler, which drivers can use to send
a target reset. If successful it cleans up the commands for a devices
accessed through that starget.

The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are:
- foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in a single hierarchy
- foo isn't visible as an individually mountable subsystem
As a result there will only ever be one call to foo->create(), at init time;
all processes will stay in this group, and the group will never be mounted on
a visible hierarchy. Any additional effects (e.g. not allocating metadata)
are up to the foo subsystem.
This doesn't handle early_init subsystems (their "disabled" bit isn't set be,
but it could easily be extended to do so if any of the early_init systems
wanted it - I think it would just involve some nastier parameter processing
since it would occur before the command-line argument parser had been run.

Ballpark figures, I'm trying to get this question out rather than

I'm no expert on distros, they may have no interest whatever in

According to SDM2.2, Itanium supports multiple outstanding ptc.g instructions.
But current kernel function ia64_global_tlb_purge() uses a spinlock to serialize
ptc.g instructions issued by multiple processors. This serialization might have
scalability issue on a big SMP machine where many processors could purge TLB
in parallel.
The patch fixes this problem by issuing multiple ptc.g instructions in

a platform view of the max number of outstanding ptc.g instructions (which
may be different from the processor view found from PAL_VM_SUMMARY).
