e088a4ad7f [IA64] Convert ia64 to use int-ll64.h
It is generally agreed that it would be beneficial for u64 to be an
unsigned long long on all architectures.  ia64 (in common with several
other 64-bit architectures) currently uses unsigned long.  Migrating
piecemeal is too painful; this giant patch fixes all compilation warnings
and errors that come as a result of switching to use int-ll64.h.

Note that userspace will still see __u64 defined as unsigned long.  This
is important as it affects C++ name mangling.

[Updated by Tony Luck to change efi.h:efi_freemem_callback_t to use
 u64 for start/end rather than unsigned long]

99b7623380 proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.

We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.

But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.

->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.

rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.

Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.

So, let's nuke it.

Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

5dd3c9949a cpumask: prepare for iterators to only go to nr_cpu_ids/nr_cpumask_bits.: ia64
Impact: cleanup, futureproof

In fact, all cpumask ops will only be valid (in general) for bit
numbers < nr_cpu_ids.  So use that instead of NR_CPUS in various
places.

This is always safe: no cpu number can be >= nr_cpu_ids, and
nr_cpu_ids is initialized to NR_CPUS at boot.

fbb776c3ca cpumask: IA64: Introduce cpumask_of_{node,pcibus} to replace {node,pcibus}_to_cpumask
Impact: New APIs

The old node_to_cpumask/node_to_pcibus returned a cpumask_t: these
return a pointer to a struct cpumask.  Part of removing cpumasks from
the stack.

We can also use the new for_each_cpu_and() to avoid a temporary cpumask,
and a gratuitous test in sn_topology_show.

40d4857534 [IA64] SN2: Fix up sn2_rtc clock
If the sn2_rtc clock is present then it is a must have since sn2_rtc
provides a synchronized time source on Altix systems. So elevate
the priority to 450. Otherwise the ITC would take precendence. Altix
systems currently do not boot because the ITC clocksource is broken. It
seems to assume that ITCs are synchronized and as a result nanosleep
hangs (may be fixed in a different patch).

While we are at it: Remove the sn2_mc definition. The sn2_rtc has a fixed
address. No point in reading the address from memory. Removing it avoids
touching one cacheline.

defbb2c929 [IA64] ia64: simplify and fix udelay()
The original ia64 udelay() was simple, but flawed for platforms without
synchronized ITCs:  a preemption and migration to another CPU during the
while-loop likely resulted in too-early termination or very, very
lengthy looping.

The first fix (now in 2.6.15) broke the delay loop into smaller,
non-preemptible chunks, reenabling preemption between the chunks.  This
fix is flawed in that the total udelay is computed to be the sum of just
the non-premptible while-loop pieces, i.e., not counting the time spent
in the interim preemptible periods.  If an interrupt or a migration
occurs during one of these interim periods, then that time is invisible
and only serves to lengthen the effective udelay().

This new fix backs out the current flawed fix and returns to a simple
udelay(), fully preemptible and interruptible.  It implements two simple
alternative udelay() routines:  one a default generic version that uses
ia64_get_itc(), and the other an sn-specific version that uses that
platform's RTC.

e08e6c5213 [IA64] hooks to wait for mmio writes to drain when migrating processes
On SN2, MMIO writes which are issued from separate processors are not
guaranteed to arrive in any particular order at the IO hardware.  When
performing such writes from the kernel this is not a problem, as a
kernel thread will not migrate to another CPU during execution, and
mmiowb() calls can guarantee write ordering when control of the IO
resource is allowed to move between threads.

However, when MMIO writes can be performed from user space (e.g. DRM)
there are no such guarantees and mechanisms, as the process may
context-switch at any time, and may migrate to a different CPU as part
of the switch.  For such programs/hardware to operate correctly, it is
required that the MMIO writes from the old CPU be accepted by the IO
hardware before subsequent writes from the new CPU can be issued.

The following patch implements this behavior on SN2 by waiting for a
Shub register to indicate that these writes have been accepted.  This
is placed in the context switch-in path, and only performs the wait
when the newly scheduled task changes CPUs.

61a34a024f [IA64-SGI] Update TLB flushing code for SN platform
This patch finishes support for SHUB2 (the new chipset). Most of the
changes are performance related. A few changes are workarounds for
"interesting" chipset features.

Some temporary debugging code has also been deleted.

103ec0910d [IA64-SGI] Recursive flags do not work for selective builds
arch/ia64/sn/Makefile sets CPPFLAGS, expecting that setting to
propogate to all the subdirectories.  For a normal build with its
recursive descent it does work, but doing a selective build like
'make arch/ia64/sn/kernel/io_init.i' does not do a recursive descent,
it goes directly to arch/ia64/sn/kernel/Makefile so the flags do not
get set.

To support selective builds, set the flags in all the subordinate Makefiles.
