When you've enabled conntrack and NAT as a module (standard case in all
distributions), and you've also enabled the new conntrack netlink
interface, loading ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will auto-load iptable_nat.ko.
This causes a huge performance penalty, since for every packet you iterate
the nat code, even if you don't want it.
This patch splits iptable_nat.ko into the NAT core (ip_nat.ko) and the
iptables frontend (iptable_nat.ko). Threfore, ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will
only pull ip_nat.ko, but not the frontend. ip_nat.ko will "only" allocate
some resources, but not affect runtime performance.
This separation is also a nice step in anticipation of new packet filters
(nf-hipac, ipset, pkttables) being able to use the NAT core.

Al Viro pointed out that the current IB userspace verbs interface
allows userspace to cause mischief by closing file descriptors before
we're ready, or issuing the same command twice at the same time. This
patch closes those races, and fixes other obvious problems such as a
module reference leak.
Some other interface bogosities will require an ABI change to fix
properly, so I'm deferring those fixes until 2.6.15.

Echo Audio cardbus products are known to be incompatible with EnE bridges.
in order to maybe solve the problem a EnE specific test bit has to be set,
another cleared...but other setups have a good chance to break when just
forcing the bits. so do the whole thingy automatically.
The patch adds a hook in cb_alloc() that allows special tuning for the
different chipsets. for ene just match the Echo products and set/clear the
test bits, defaults to do the same thing as w/o the patch to not break

At boot time, determine the D-cache, I-cache and E-cache size and
line-size. Use them in cache flushes when appropriate.
This change was motivated by discovering that the D-cache on
UltraSparc-IIIi and later are 64K not 32K, and the flushes done by the
Cheetah error handlers were assuming a 32K size.
There are still some pieces of code that are hard coding things and
will need to be fixed up at some point.
While we're here, fix the D-cache and I-cache parity error handlers
to run with interrupts disabled, and when the trap occurs at trap
level > 1 log the event via a counter displayed in /proc/cpuinfo.

This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac. This is enough
to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.
For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes
to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.
The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting.

The trick is that we do the kernel linear mapping TLB miss starting
with an instruction sequence like this:
ba,pt %xcc, kvmap_load
xor %g2, %g4, %g5
succeeded by an instruction sequence which performs a full page table
walk starting at swapper_pg_dir.
We first take over the trap table from the firmware. Then, using this
constant PTE generation for the linear mapping area above, we build
the kernel page tables for the linear mapping.
After this is setup, we patch that branch above into a "nop", which
will cause TLB misses to fall through to the full page table walk.
With this, the page unmapping for CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is trivial.

Currently rpc_mkdir/rpc_rmdir and rpc_mkpipe/mk_unlink have an API that's
a little unfortunate. They take a path relative to the rpc_pipefs root and
thus need to perform a full lookup. If you look at debugfs or usbfs they
always store the dentry for directories they created and thus can pass in
a dentry + single pathname component pair into their equivalents of the
above functions.
And in fact rpc_pipefs actually stores a dentry for all but one component so
this change not only simplifies the core rpc_pipe code but also the callers.
Unfortuntately this code path is only used by the NFS4 idmapper and
AUTH_GSSAPI for which I don't have a test enviroment. Could someone give
it a spin? It's the last bit needed before we can rework the

The next several patches introduce an API that allows transports to
choose whether the RPC client provides congestion control or whether
the transport itself provides it.
The first method we abstract is the one that serializes access to the
RPC transport to prevent the bytes from different requests from mingling
together. This method provides proper request serialization and the
opportunity to prevent new requests from being started because the
transport is congested.
The normal situation is for the transport to handle congestion control
itself. Although NFS over UDP was first, it has been recognized after
years of experience that having the transport provide congestion control
is much better than doing it in the RPC client. Thus TCP, and probably
every future transport implementation, will use the default method,
xprt_lock_write, provided in xprt.c, which does not provide any kind
of congestion control. UDP can continue using the xprt.c-provided
Van Jacobson congestion avoidance implementation.
