Andi & Andrew,
The "x86_64-switch-smp-bootup-over-to-new-cpu-hotplug-state.patch" in
2.6.12-rc2-mm3 appears to have broken the NMI watchdog. Specifically:
diff -puN
arch/x86_64/kernel/nmi.c~x86_64-switch-smp-bootup-over-to-new-cpu-hotplug-state
arch/x86_64/kernel/nmi.c
---
25/arch/x86_64/kerne
initialization from incompatible pointer
type
etc
This is because 2.6.13-rc2 added a code block to this function which references
hotplug-only stuff. Fixed crudely by #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG around it.

The patch is OK, but it doesn't fix a bug or regression.
Since Linus' kernel seems to be in bug-fix-only mode, it
shouldn't go in there until after 2.6.13.

Cool. I'll test that and if it works w/o exposing
rnel any more, make perfctr_info kernel-only
and remove unused fields, use explicitly-sized integers
in user-visible types.

x86-specific cleanups for perfctr:
- x86.c: use DEFINE_SPINLOCK().
- : remove cpu_type constants and
PERFCTR_CPU_VERSION unused in the kernel, use
explicitly-sized integers in user-visible types, make
perfctr_cpu_control kernel-private.

Here is a new set of patches to allow gcc-4.0 (20050312)
to compile the 2.4.30-rc1 kernel. Changes since the previous
version of the patch set are:
- Replaced -ffreestanding with -fno-builtin-sprintf.
freestanding was used to prevent gcc from transforming some
sprintf() calls to calls to strcp

This is an array-of-incomplete-type error.

C_PSERIES implies PPC_RTAS. It seems someone tried to clean up the
condition but accidentally negated it: on PSERIES the system call will
now go to sys_ni_syscall, and on !PSERIES linking will fail.
Fix: negate the condition.

Problem solved. There was a bug
ed control flows are backpatched properly.
This is needed for gcc-4.0.
- Eliminate power-of-two sizeof assumption in access_regs().
- Merge check_ireset() and setup_imode_start_values().

ppc32 fix and cleanups:
- If check_ireset() fails, clear state->cstatus to undo any
settings check_control() may have left there.
- Eliminate power-of-two sizeof assumption in access_regs().
- Merge check_ireset() and setup_imode_start_values().

Here is a preliminary set of patches to allow gcc-4.0 (20050130)
to compile the 2.4.30-pre1 kernel. I make no claim that the patches
are complete, but they have been tested successfully on i386 (multiple
boxes), x86-64, and ppc32.
The changes fall into these categories:
- static-vs-non-static mism
and for restarting after changing control data.
- Renamed old sys_vperfctr_control() to sys_vperfctr_write().
