The x86 defconfigs include exactly one module: test_nx.ko, a
special-purpose module which just exists to do evil things like
executing code off the stack to see if the kernel has enabled NX
support. Anyone who actually uses that module can easily enable
it themselves, but the vast majority of kernel builds don't need
it; disable it by default.

The vast majority of systems either use initramfs or mount a
root filesystem directly from the kernel. Distros have
defaulted to initramfs for years. Only highly specialized
systems would use an actual filesystem-image initrd at this
point, and such systems don't rely on defconfig anyway. Drop
initrd support (and specifically RAM block device support) from
the defconfigs.

Old platforms using ancient gettimeoffset() and other arcane
APIs are standing in the way of cleaning up the ARM kernel.
The gettimeoffset() was also broken: it would try to read out
the timer counter value, while this would not work (the
counter statically returns the initially programmed value)
so the implementation would anyway fall back to a homebrew
version of jiffie calculation.
This is an attempt at blind-coding a generic time and clocksource
driver for the platform by way of a datasheet and looking at the
old code.

We have been observing hangs, both of KVM guest vcpu tasks and more
generally, where a process that is woken doesn't properly wake up and
continue to run, but instead sticks in TASK_WAKING state. This
happens because the update of rq->wake_list in ttwu_queue_remote()
is not ordered with the update of ipi_message in
smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass(), and the reading of rq->wake_list in
scheduler_ipi() is not ordered with the reading of ipi_message in
smp_ipi_demux(). Thus it is possible for the IPI receiver not to see
the updated rq->wake_list and therefore conclude that there is nothing
for it to do.
In order to make sure that anything done before smp_send_reschedule()
is ordered before anything done in the resulting call to scheduler_ipi(),
this adds barriers in smp_muxed_message_pass() and smp_ipi_demux().
The barrier in smp_muxed_message_pass() is a full barrier to ensure that
there is a full ordering between the smp_send_reschedule() caller and
scheduler_ipi(). In smp_ipi_demux(), we use xchg() rather than
xchg_local() because xchg() includes release and acquire barriers.
Using xchg() rather than xchg_local() makes sense given that
ipi_message is not just accessed locally.
This moves the barrier between setting the message and calling the
cause_ipi() function into the individual cause_ipi implementations.
Most of them -- those that used outb, out_8 or similar -- already had
a full barrier because out_8 etc. include a sync before the MMIO
store. This adds an explicit barrier in the two remaining cases.
These changes made no measurable difference to the speed of IPIs as
measured using a simple ping-pong latency test across two CPUs on
different cores of a POWER7 machine.
The analysis of the reason why processes were not waking up properly
is due to Milton Miller.

During a context switch we always restore the per thread DSCR value.
If we aren't doing explicit DSCR management
(ie thread.dscr_inherit == 0) and the default DSCR changed while
the process has been sleeping we end up with the wrong value.
Check thread.dscr_inherit and select the default DSCR or per thread

We will eventually update it at context switch time but there is

If we fork at this point we will copy the old value of thread.dscr

The CPU hotplug code for the powernv platform currently only puts
offline CPUs into nap mode if the powersave_nap variable is set.
However, HV-style KVM on this platform requires secondary CPU threads
to be offline and in nap mode. Since we know nap mode works just
fine on all POWER7 machines, and the only machines that support the
powernv platform are POWER7 machines, this changes the code to
always put offline CPUs into nap mode, regardless of powersave_nap.
Powersave_nap still controls whether or not CPUs go into nap mode
when idle, as before.

At the moment the handler for hypervisor decrementer interrupts is
the same as for decrementer interrupts, i.e. timer_interrupt().
This is bogus; if we ever do get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt
it won't have anything to do with the next timer event. In fact
the only time we get hypervisor decrementer interrupts is when one
is left pending on exit from a KVM guest.
When we get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt we don't need to do
anything special to clear it, since they are edge-triggered on the
transition of HDEC from 0 to -1. Thus this adds an empty handler
function for them. We don't need to have them masked when interrupts
are soft-disabled, so we use STD_EXCEPTION_HV instead of
MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_HV.

For critical exception handlers use SPRG3 instead of SPRG7. Provide a routine

Previously, we allocated the s_flex_groups array to the maximum size

this approach. First, it wasted memory in the common case where the
file system was not resized. Secondly, once we start allowing online
resizing using the meta_bg scheme, there is no maximum size that the
file system can be resized. So instead, we need to grow the
s_flex_groups at inline resize time.
