Subject: what's up for v2.6.25 in x86.git


What's up for v2.6.25 for the x86 architecture code.

There are 763 commits in x86.git so far, from more than 90 contributors, 
so it would be difficult to mention and credit every contribution in 
this mail. See the shortlog attached further below for more details.

Here's an (incomplete) list of highlights:

 - Continued, intense arch/x86 unification and cleanup work by lots of
   people. (Harvey Harrison, Cyrill Gorcunov, Sam Ravnborg, Pavel
   Machek, Hiroshi Shimamoto, Julia Lawall, Chris Wright and many
   others)

 - FIFO ticket spinlocks for better spinlock scalability (Nick Piggin)

 - "regset" generalizations - the most important step towards utrace 
   support (==next-gen ptrace). (Roland McGrath)

 - support for more than 255 CPUs [up to 4096 - in theory up to 65535] 
   (Nick Piggin, Mike Travis)

 - almost complete 64-bit paravirt guest support :-) (Glauber de
   Oliveira Costa and Jeremy Fitzhardinge).

 - KGDB support on x86, finally! (Jason Wessel and others)

 - percpu infrastructure improvements and cleanups (Mike Travis)

 - PIE executable and brk randomization (Jiri Kosina)

 - VDSO improvements and cleanups (Roland McGrath)

 - branch-trace-store hardware support for ptrace (Markus Metzger)

 - kprobes improvements (Masami Hiramatsu, Harvey Harrison, Abhishek 
   Sagar and others)

 - continued "transform inb_p() uses safely" work (Alan Cox)

 - TLB flushing optimizations for lower power cosumption (Venki 
   Pallipadi)

 - next-gen platform enablement work and fixes (Yinghai Lu)

 - change_page_attr() API fixes and improvements (Andi Kleen)

 - CPU feature bits cleanups and improvements (Andi Kleen)

 - various fixes (Jan Beulich)

 - EFI support (Ying Huang)

 - updated x86 setup code (H. Peter Anvin)

 - more reliable sched_clock() (Guillaume Chazarain)

 - RDC R-321x SoC subarchitecture support (Florian Fainelli)

 - HPET improvements (Balaji Rao)

 - assorted fixlets that kept the arch/x86 ball rolling smoothly in -mm
   (Andrew Morton)

PAT support (and clflush and GBPAGES support) are probably v2.6.26 
items. But even without those we've got enough changes:

      x86: clear IO_APIC before enabing apic error vector.
      store core id bits in cpuinfo_x8
      x86: use core id bits for apicid_to_node initialization
      x86: set cpu_index to nr_cpus instead of 0
      x86: do not set boot cpu in cpu_online_map at x86_64_start_kernel()
      x86_64: not clear empty_zero_page again
      x86: cleanup setup_node_zones called by paging_init()
      x86: disable the GART early, 64-bit
      x86_64: only call early_init_amd one time
      x86: msr for AMD Fam 10h mmio
      x86_64: checking aperture report for node instead
      x86: only support sparsemem
