There's some sections that should not have mcount recorded and should not have modifications to the that code. But currently they waste some time by calling mcount anyway (which simply returns). As the real answer should be to either whitelist the section or have gcc ignore it fully. This change adds a option to recordmcount to warn when it finds a section that is ignored by ftrace but still contains mcount callers. This is not on by default as developers may not know if the section should be completely ignored or added to the whitelist.

There are sections that are ignored by ftrace for the function tracing because the text is in a section that can be removed without notice. The mcount calls in these sections are ignored and ftrace never sees them. The downside of this is that the functions in these sections still call mcount. Although the mcount function is defined in assembly simply as a return, this added overhead is unnecessary. The solution is to convert these callers into nops at compile time. A better solution is to add 'notrace' to the section markers, but as new sections come up all the time, it would be nice that they are delt with when they are created. Later patches will deal with finding these sections and doing the proper solution. Thanks to H. Peter Anvin for giving me the right nops to use for x86. Cc: "H.

Commit a626ca6a ("vm: fix vm_pgoff wrap in stack expansion") fixed the case of an expanding mapping causing vm_pgoff wrapping when you had downward stack expansion. But there was another case where IA64 and PA-RISC expand mappings: upward expansion. This fixes that case too. Signed-off-by:

Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too. This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch. [ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and share the infrstructure with the /proc bits. Tested on ia64 that has both grow-up and grow-down segments - Linus ] Signed-off-by:

If we're using vga switcheroo, the device may be turned off and poking it can return random state. This provokes an OOPS fixed separately by 8ff887c847 (drm/i915/dp: Be paranoid in case we disable a DP before it is attached). Trying to use and respond to events on a device that has been turned off by the user is in principle a silly thing to do. Signed-off-by:

Despite the fixes in 548f245b (drm/i915: fix per-pipe reads after "cleanup"), we missed one neighbouring read that was mistakenly replaced with the reg value in 9db4a9c7 (drm/i915: cleanup per-pipe reg usage). This was preventing us from correctly determining the mode the BIOS left the panel in for machines that neither have an OpRegion nor access to the VBT, (e.g. the EeePC 700). Signed-off-by:
