[PATCH] x86_64 irq: Allocate a vector across all cpus for genapic_flat.
The problem we can't take advantage of lowest priority delivery mode if
the vectors are allocated for only one cpu at a time. Nor can we work
around hardware that assumes lowest priority delivery mode is always
used with several cpus.
So this patch introduces the concept of a vector_allocation_domain. A
set of cpus that will receive an irq on the same vector. Currently the
code for implementing this is placed in the genapic structure so we can
vary this depending on how we are using the io_apics.
This allows us to restore the previous behaviour of genapic_flat without
removing the benefits of having separate vector allocation for large
machines.
This should also fix the problem report where a hyperthreaded cpu was
receving the irq on the wrong hyperthread when in logical delivery mode
because the previous behaviour is restored.
This patch properly records our allocation of the first 16 irqs to the
first 16 available vectors on all cpus. This should be fine but it may
run into problems with multiple interrupts at the same interrupt level.
Except for some badly maintained comments in the code and the behaviour
of the interrupt allocator I have no real understanding of that problem.

[PATCH] knfsd: tidy up up meaning of 'buffer size' in nfsd/sunrpc
There is some confusion about the meaning of 'bufsz' for a sunrpc server.
In some cases it is the largest message that can be sent or received. In
other cases it is the largest 'payload' that can be included in a NFS
message.
In either case, it is not possible for both the request and the reply to be
this large. One of the request or reply may only be one page long, which
fits nicely with NFS.
So we remove 'bufsz' and replace it with two numbers: 'max_payload' and
'max_mesg'. Max_payload is the size that the server requests. It is used
by the server to check the max size allowed on a particular connection:
depending on the protocol a lower limit might be used.
max_mesg is the largest single message that can be sent or received. It is
calculated as the max_payload, rounded up to a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, and
with PAGE_SIZE added to overhead. Only one of the request and reply may be
this size. The other must be at most one page.

[PATCH] page fault retry with NOPAGE_REFAULT
Add a way for a no_page() handler to request a retry of the faulting
instruction. It goes back to userland on page faults and just tries again
in get_user_pages(). I added a cond_resched() in the loop in that later
case.
The problem I have with signal and spufs is an actual bug affecting apps and I
don't see other ways of fixing it.
In addition, we are having issues with infiniband and 64k pages (related to
the way the hypervisor deals with some HV cards) that will require us to muck
around with the MMU from within the IB driver's no_page() (it's a pSeries
specific driver) and return to the caller the same way using NOPAGE_REFAULT.
And to add to this, the graphics folks have been following a new approach of
memory management that involves transparently swapping objects between video
ram and main meory. To do that, they need installing PTEs from a no_page()
handler as well and that also requires returning with NOPAGE_REFAULT.
(For the later, they are currently using io_remap_pfn_range to install one PTE
from no_page() which is a bit racy, we need to add a check for the PTE having
already been installed afer taking the lock, but that's ok, they are only at
the proof-of-concept stage. I'll send a patch adding a "clean" function to do
that, we can use that from spufs too and get rid of the sparsemem hacks we do
to create struct page for SPEs. Basically, that provides a generic solution
for being able to have no_page() map hardware devices, which is something that
I think sound driver folks have been asking for some time too).
All of these things depend on having the NOPAGE_REFAULT exit path from
no_page() handlers.

Tim and Ananiev report that the recent WARN_ON_ONCE changes cause increased
cache misses with the tbench workload. Apparently due to the access to the
newly-added static variable.
Rearrange the code so that we don't touch that variable unless the warning is
going to trigger.
Also rework the logic so that the static variable starts out at zero, so we
can move it into bss.
It would seem logical to mark the static variable as __read_mostly too. But
it would be wrong, because that would put it back into the vmlinux image, and
the kernel will never read from this variable in normal operation anyway.
Unless the compiler or hardware go and do some prefetching on us?
