x86: restrict keyboard io ports reservation to make ipmi driver
work
On some of our (single board computer) boards (x86) we are using
an IPMI controller that uses I/O ports 0x62 and 0x66 for a KCS
(keyboard controller style) IPMI system interface.
Trying to load the openipmi driver fails, because the ports
(0x62/0x66) are reserved for keyboard. keyboard reserves the full
range 0x60-0x6F while it doesn't need to.
Reserve only ports 0x60 and 0x64 for the legacy PS/2 i8042 keyboad
controller instead of 0x60-0x6F to allow the openipmi driver to
work.

linux/acpi: adjust extcntl's changes to (mostly) common code, mostly for readability
While I realize that it may have been upon my request that all these
#ifdef-s were introduced, I think this went too far here: With the
abstraction in include/acpi/processor.h in place, the code still
guarantees even without all these #ifdef-s that in native kernels
built from the same source the logic will not change.
The one thing that appears a little weak still is the NR_ACPI_CPUS
construct - nothing guarantees that the ACPI IDs are constrained to 8
bits, and hence using an array here doesn't seem either safe or
scalable looking forward. To make the issue explict, the patch adds a
respective BUG_ON().
linux/evtchn: Add memory barriers to evtchn ring accesses.
Xenstore infrequently hangs up on IA64.
Actually the xenstored is still alive but no response from
xenstore-XXX commands.
After tracking down, I've found that evtchn_read() infrequently
returns a wrong evtchn port number and evtchn_write() never
unmask the exact port.

Yes, updates of the ring_prod and ring_cons are separately protected
by different locks/mutexes, but the data communication between
producer and consumer is lock-free. Barriers are needed.
When resuming from S3, some platforms may clear SCI_EN bit in
PM1_CONTROL register and cause SCI interrupt disabled in Domain0. This
patch fixes this issue as Linux-2.6.19 does.
A recent need for our kernel was to be able to run on 3.0.2-based Xen,
and this pointed out that while the fallback code in hypercall.h deals
with most of the cases, the multicalls used in the context switch code
didn't have appropriate fallback mechanisms. Short of breaking up the
multicall or checking individual operation status, the easier method
to fix this seemed to be to simply use the old hypercalls when
CONFIG_XEN_COMPAT_030002_AND_LATER is defined.
This patch fixes the following compilation error.
scsiback_interface_exit() is called by scsiback_init().

The extended blkfront code would allocate the wrong device for xvdc,

x86/64: Fix syscall return code when ptrace or audit is active
Fix the return value from the 64-bit kernel when you call with a bad

What should happen is that the user process gets a -ENOSYS return

kernel) is that you get back the system call number. The 32-bit

blktap: bugfix and support extended device numbers
This simple patch puts two fixes into the blktap backend. The first
is a change of busid from an unsigned short to a u32 so we can
accommodate the new expanded format (which doesn't fit into 16-bits).
The second is a minor fix to signal_tapdisk(); while developing, if
the tools happen to set up the tapfds wrong, you can get into a
situation where the idx passed to signal_tapdisk() is NULL, causing a
kernel OOPS. The fix for signal_tapdisk() just returns if the idx is
negative, preventing the crash.

blkfront: Fix blkfront to accept expanded devices (v2)
This patch implements the new extended allocation scheme on the
blkfront end. Note that there is a new xenbus node for the extended
stuff, called "virtual-device-ext". On a blkfront_probe(), if nothing
is found in "virtual-device", then it will go looking in
"virtual-device-ext". This prevents old guest kernels from potentially
mis-interpreting data in "virtual-device" (and then subsequently
crashing).
Changes since v1:
- Restructure the changes to remove duplicate code
- Add some error checks on the xlvbd_add() path. Note that I did not
do full error checking on the existing numbering scheme (i.e. the
202<<8 for xvd, 3<<8 for IDE, 8<<8 for SCSI, etc). The reason I
didn't do full checking is that it is perfectly legal to do something
like: "xm block-attach pv tap:aio:/disk 0xCB10 w" (which is major
203), which then maps onto the 202 xvd device. It's not particularly
nice behavior, in my opinion, but changing it now would change this
behavior. So the only check I added was to make sure we weren't above
the extended device range (1<<28).
