I got some feedback from users who think that the new "Memory Model" menu is a
little invasive. This patch will hide that menu, except when
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL is enabled *or* when an individual architecture wants it.
An individual arch may want to enable it because they've removed their
arch-specific DISCONTIG prompt in favor of the mm/Kconfig one.

There is some confusion that arose when working on SPARSEMEM patch between
what is needed for DISCONTIG vs. NUMA.
Multiple pg_data_t's are needed for DISCONTIGMEM or NUMA, independently.
All of the current NUMA implementations require an implementation of
DISCONTIG. Because of this, quite a lot of code which is really needed for
NUMA is actually under DISCONTIG #ifdefs. For SPARSEMEM, we changed some
of these #ifdefs to CONFIG_NUMA, but that broke the DISCONTIG=y and NUMA=n
case.
Introducing this new NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES config option allows code that is
needed for both NUMA or DISCONTIG to be separated out from code that is
specific to DISCONTIG.
One great advantage of this approach is that it doesn't require every
architecture to be converted over. All of the current implementations
should "just work", only the ones implementing SPARSEMEM will have to be
fixed up.
The change to free_area_init() makes it work inside, or out of the new
config option.

For all architectures, this just means that you'll see a "Memory Model"
choice in your architecture menu. For those that implement DISCONTIGMEM,
you may eventually want to make your ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE a "def_bool
y" and make your users select DISCONTIGMEM right out of the new choice
menu. The only disadvantage might be if you have some specific things that
you need in your help option to explain something about DISCONTIGMEM.

With sparsemem being introduced, we need a central place for new
memory-related .config options: mm/Kconfig. This allows us to remove many
of the duplicated arch-specific options.
The new option, CONFIG_FLATMEM, is there to enable us to detangle NUMA and
DISCONTIGMEM. This is a requirement for sparsemem because sparsemem uses
the NUMA code without the presence of DISCONTIGMEM. The sparsemem patches
use CONFIG_FLATMEM in generic code, so this patch is a requirement before
applying them.
Almost all places that used to do '#ifndef CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM' should use
'#ifdef CONFIG_FLATMEM' instead.

This mechanism is also used on non-NUMA ia64 systems with a vmem_map to keep

Issues:
o alloc_remap takes a node_id where we might expect a pgdat which was intended

Three of these are i386-only, but one of them reorganizes the macros
used to manage the space in page->flags, and will affect all platforms.
There are analogous patches to the i386 ones for ppc64, ia64, and

The combination of the four patches has been test-booted on a variety of
i386 hardware, and compiled for ppc64, i386, and x86-64 with about 17
different .configs. It's also been runtime-tested on ia64 configs (with

This patch effectively eliminates direct use of pgdat->node_mem_map outside
of the DISCONTIG code. On a flat memory system, these fields aren't
currently used, neither are they on a sparsemem system.
There was also a node_mem_map(nid) macro on many architectures. Its use
along with the use of ->node_mem_map itself was not consistent. It has
been removed in favor of two new, more explicit, arch-independent macros:
pgdat_page_nr(pgdat, pagenr)
nid_page_nr(nid, pagenr)
I called them "pgdat" and "nid" because we overload the term "node" to mean
"NUMA node", "DISCONTIG node" or "pg_data_t" in very confusing ways. I
believe the newer names are much clearer.
These macros can be overridden in the sparsemem case with a theoretically
slower operation using node_start_pfn and pfn_to_page(), instead. We could
make this the only behavior if people want, but I don't want to change too
much at once. One thing at a time.
This patch removes more code than it adds.

For I/O DLPAR to work properly, the kernel needs to allow for dynamic

addition. This patch moves the assignment of that field from
pSeries_final_fixup() to pcibios_fixup_bus(), which enables dynamic
assignment for the children of a newly added bus.
Currently, pci_devs receive their irq numbers in one of two ways. The
irq line is either read at boot for all pci_devs, or read by the rpaphp
module at slot enable time. The latter is no longer sufficient for
DLPAR addition of slots that don't qualify as PCI-hotplug capable.
This solution handles the cases of boot and dynamic add.

This patch corrects the printing of progress indicators to the op
panel on p/iSeries ppc64 systems. Each discrete reference code should
begin with a form feed char to clear the op panel, and the first and
second lines should be separated with a CR/LF sequence. Padding with
spaces is not necessary.
Also, capitalize the hex value printed on the first line, to be
consistent with the values printed by firmware, service processor,
etc.
It turns out that there's an ibm,form-feed property; this patch uses
it in the pSeries-specific progress routine. This patch also checks
the number of rows and the specific width of each row (the second row
on power5 systems can actually hold 80 characters). If the displayed
text is too wide for the physical display, it can be viewed in the ASM

This patch is a follow up to patch 1 regarding "Selective Sub Address
matching with call user data". It allows use of the Fast-Select-Acceptance
optional user facility for X.25.
This patch just implements fast select with no restriction on response
(NRR). What this means (according to ITU-T Recomendation 10/96 section
6.16) is that if in an incoming call packet, the relevant facility bits are
set for fast-select-NRR, then the called DTE can issue a direct response to
the incoming packet using a call-accepted packet that contains
call-user-data. This patch allows such a response.
The called DTE can also respond with a clear-request packet that contains
call-user-data. However, this feature is currently not implemented by the
patch.
How is Fast Select Acceptance used?
By default, the system does not allow fast select acceptance (as before).
To enable a response to fast select acceptance,
After a listen socket in created and bound as follows
socket(AF_X25, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
bind(call_soc, (struct sockaddr *)&locl_addr, sizeof(locl_addr));
but before a listen system call is made, the following ioctl should be used.
ioctl(call_soc,SIOCX25CALLACCPTAPPRV);
Now the listen system call can be made
listen(call_soc, 4);
After this, an incoming-call packet will be accepted, but no call-accepted
packet will be sent back until the following system call is made on the socket
that accepts the call
ioctl(vc_soc,SIOCX25SENDCALLACCPT);
The network (or cisco xot router used for testing here) will allow the
application server's call-user-data in the call-accepted packet,
provided the call-request was made with Fast-select NRR.

From: Shaun Pereira <spereira@tusc.com.au>
This is the first (independent of the second) patch of two that I am
working on with x25 on linux (tested with xot on a cisco router). Details
are as follows.
Current state of module:
A server using the current implementation (2.6.11.7) of the x25 module will
accept a call request/ incoming call packet at the listening x.25 address,
from all callers to that address, as long as NO call user data is present
in the packet header.
If the server needs to choose to accept a particular call request/ incoming
call packet arriving at its listening x25 address, then the kernel has to
allow a match of call user data present in the call request packet with its
own. This is required when multiple servers listen at the same x25 address
and device interface. The kernel currently matches ALL call user data, if
present.
Current Changes:
This patch is a follow up to the patch submitted previously by Andrew
Hendry, and allows the user to selectively control the number of octets of
call user data in the call request packet, that the kernel will match. By
default no call user data is matched, even if call user data is present.
To allow call user data matching, a cudmatchlength > 0 has to be passed
into the kernel after which the passed number of octets will be matched.
Otherwise the kernel behavior is exactly as the original implementation.
This patch also ensures that as is normally the case, no call user data
will be present in the Call accepted / call connected packet sent back to
the caller
Future Changes on next patch:
There are cases however when call user data may be present in the call
accepted packet. According to the X.25 recommendation (ITU-T 10/96)
section 5.2.3.2 call user data may be present in the call accepted packet
provided the fast select facility is used. My next patch will include this
fast select utility and the ability to send up to 128 octets call user data
in the call accepted packet provided the fast select facility is used. I
am currently testing this, again with xot on linux and cisco.

This patch provides support for registering multiple netpoll clients to the
same network device. Only one of these clients may register an rx_hook,
however. In practice, this restriction has not been problematic. It is
worth mentioning, though, that the current design can be easily extended to
allow for the registration of multiple rx_hooks.
The basic idea of the patch is that the rx_np pointer in the netpoll_info
structure points to the struct netpoll that has rx_hook filled in. Aside
from this one case, there is no need for a pointer from the struct
net_device to an individual struct netpoll.
A lock is introduced to protect the setting and clearing of the np_rx
pointer. The pointer will only be cleared upon netpoll client module
removal, and the lock should be uncontested.

This patch introduces a netpoll_info structure, which the struct net_device
will now point to instead of pointing to a struct netpoll. The reason for
this is two-fold: 1) fields such as the rx_flags, poll_owner, and poll_lock
should be maintained per net_device, not per netpoll; and 2) this is a first
step in providing support for multiple netpoll clients to register against the
same net_device.
The struct netpoll is now pointed to by the netpoll_info structure. As
such, the previous behaviour of the code is preserved.

Implementation of software load support for the BE iommu. This is very
different from other iommu code on ppc64, since we only do a static mapping.
The mapping is currently hardcoded but should really be read from the
firmware, but they don't set up the device nodes yet. There is a single
512MB DMA window for PCI, USB and ethernet at 0x20000000 for our RAM.
The Cell processor can put the I/O page table either in memory like
the hashed page table (hardware load) or have the operating system
write the entries into memory mapped CPU registers (software load).
I use the software load mechanism because I know that all I/O page
table entries for the amount of installed physical memory fit into
the IO TLB cache. At the point when we get machines with more than
4GB of installed memory, we can either use hardware I/O page table
access like the other platforms do or dynamically update the I/O
TLB entries when a page fault occurs in the I/O subsystem.
The software load can then use the macros that I have implemented
for the static mapping in order to do the TLB cache updates.
