Commit ddd588b5dd55 ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from
meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which
resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
versions of show_mem():lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined hereThe fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
all implementations to prevent this breakage.Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
generic implementation.Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell

minix bit operations are only used by minix filesystem and useless by
other modules. Because byte order of inode and block bitmaps is different
on each architecture like below:m68k:
big-endian 16bit indexed bitmapsh8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu:
big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmapsm32r, mips, sh, xtensa:
big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps for big-endian mode
little-endian bitmaps for little-endian modeOthers:
little-endian bitmapsIn order to move minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h to architecture
independent code in minix filesystem, this provides two config options.CONFIG_MINIX_FS_BIG_ENDIAN_16BIT_INDEXED is only selected by m68k.
CONFIG_MINIX_FS_NATIVE_ENDIAN is selected by the architectures which use
native byte order bitmaps (h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu,
m32r, mips, sh, xtensa). The architectures which always use little-endian
bitmaps do not select these options.Finally, we can remove minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h for all
architectures.Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita

implementation of find_*_bit_le() in lib/find_next_bit.c or not.For now we select CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_BIT_LE for all architectures which

Make __get_user_pages return -EHWPOISON for HWPOISON page only if
FOLL_HWPOISON is specified. With this patch, the interested callers
can distinguish HWPOISON pages from general FAULT pages, while other
callers will still get -EFAULT for all these pages, so the user space
interface need not to be changed.This feature is needed by KVM, where UCR MCE should be relayed to
guest for HWPOISON page, while instruction emulation and MMIO will be
tried for general FAULT page.The idea comes from Andrew Morton.

The cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API was funny in that it returned either
the original, user-exposed futex value OR an error code such as -EFAULT.
This was confusing at best, and could be a source of livelocks in places
that retry the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked after trying to fix the issue
by running fault_in_user_writeable().This change makes the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API more similar to the
get_futex_value_locked one, returning an error code and updating the
original value through a reference argument.Signed-off-by: Michel Lespinasse

On parisc, we never implemented invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() because
it was unnecessary for the xfs use case. However, we do need to
implement an invalidate for the opposite use case (which occurred in a
recent NFS change) where the user wants to read through the vmap range
and write via the kernel address. There's an additional complexity to
this in that if the page has no userspace mappings, it might have dirty
cache lines in the kernel (indicated by the PG_dcache_dirty bit). In
order to get full coherency, we need to flush these pages through the
kernel mapping before invalidating the vmap range.Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

The -rt patches change the console_semaphore to console_mutex. As a
result, a quite large chunk of the patches changes all
acquire/release_console_sem() to acquire/release_console_mutex()This commit makes things use more neutral function names which dont make
implications about the underlying lock.The only real change is the return value of console_trylock which is
inverted from try_acquire_console_sem()This patch also paves the way to switching console_sem from a semaphore to
a mutex.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.Reviewed-by: Ingo Molnar

This was used to flush a region even if the page table entry had been
cleared. In theory this was never necessary, but now we've switched to
alias based flushing, the whole set of code associated with it can be dumped.Signed-off-by: James Bottomley
Signed-off-by: James Bottomley -
The kernel has an 8M tmpailas space (originally designed for copying
and clearing pages but now only used for clearing). The idea is
to place zeros into the cache above a physical page rather than into
the physical page and flush the cache, because often the zeros end up
being replaced quickly anyway.We can also use the tmpalias space for flushing a page. The difference
here is that we have to do tmpalias processing in the non access data and
instruction traps. The principle is the same: as long as we know the physical
address and have a virtual address congruent to the real one, the flush will
be effective.In order to use the tmpalias space, the icache miss path has to be enhanced to
check for the alias region to make the fic instruction effective.Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

Remove the broken line wrapping handling in pdc_iodc_print().
It is broken in 3 ways :
- It doesn't keep track of the current screen position, it just
assumes that the new buffer will be printed at the begining of the
screen.
- It doesn't take in account that non printable characters won't
increase the current position on the screen.
- And last but not least, it triggers a kernel panic if a backspace
is the first char in the provided buffer :Backtrace:
