<jgrimm@touki.austin.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Verify contents of SACK against underrun.
Verify that the counts for duptsns and gapacks can actually
fit in the skb so we won't underrun.
<jgrimm@touki.austin.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Use slab cache for sctp_chunk & sctp_bind_bucket.

<shaggy@shaggy.austin.ibm.com>
JFS: i_acl & i_default_acl are not being re-initialized
These fields were not being reset to JFS_ACL_NOT_CACHED when jfs_inode_info
was reused from the slab cache.
<jgrimm@touki.austin.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Bug fix for bind_bucket leak & heartbeat error count.
Off by one error causes us to think that there was an error one the first
heartbeat timeout. Also, fix leak in bind_buckets.
<bunk@fs.tum.de>
kbuild: [PATCH] document modules_install in "make help"
The patch below adds information about modules_install to "make help".
<sam@ravnborg.org>
kbuild: [PATCH] Remove duplicate definitions in Makefile.build
After introducing support for the checker tool, is was
apparent that too much duplicate definitions were present for
the two cases with and without CONFIG_MODVERSIONS.
This patch collects the definitions, without adding new functionality.
<jgrimm@touki.austin.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Use non-prefetch list walker for short list.
Something weird is happening with prefetch during our module init.
Notified Andi, but this is at least a workaround for us dying.
<jgrimm@touki.austin.ibm.com>
[SCTP] CANT_STR_ASSOC could/should return error up to user. (ardelle.fan)
<sri@us.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Support for socket options that pass both addr and associd.
<jgrimm@touki.austin.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Multiple causes may be embedded in an ERROR chunk (ardelle.fan)
<jgrimm@touki.austin.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Don't use path thresholds determine the overall error thresh.
This was too cautious; let the user set what they really want. This
is preventing the Lockheed folks from doing interesting failover tests
setting all path_retrans to 0 (for immediate failover).
<hch@lab343.munich.sgi.com>
acpi serial stuff
<sri@us.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Support for SCTP_GET_PEER_ADDR_INFO socket option.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic6xxx and Aic79xx Driver Update
o Remove errno and unistd.h usage
o Remove splitting of S/G elements that cross
a 4GB boundary. Code above the driver already
guatantees that this cannot happen.
o Simplify irqreturn_t compatibility glue.
o Fix GCC 3.3 warnings.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic79XX Driver Update
o Fixup spelling of "coalesce" and derivatives.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic7xxx Driver Update
o Fix a few twin channel target id calculation bugs
in the domain validation code. These would only
effect the 2742T.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic7xxx Driver README update
o Add a changelog entry for 6.2.34
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Merge in latest 2.5.X tree changes.
<sri@us.ibm.com>
[SCTP] Rename struct sctp_protocol as struct sctp_globals and define
macros for all the global fields in the structure.
This is to avoid the confusion with the static variable sctp_protocol
of type struct inet_protocol. Also fixes some calls that pass the
global variable as an argument.
<sri@us.ibm.com>
[SCTP] SCTP_SHUTDOWN_EVENT notification support.
<hch@de.rmk.(none)>
[PATCH] kill register_pccard_driver
I tried to get as much in as possible through the maintainers but
didn't get much feedback.. (Except two batches included and Kai
ACKing the ISDN stuff).
So here's a big patch to move the reamining users over to
pcmcia_register_driver and kill it off.
<anton@samba.org>
ppc64: fix compile warnings
<anton@samba.org>
ppc64: fix misreporting of unhandled IRQs in xics IPI
<anton@samba.org>
ppc64: cleanup some hardcoded constants
<andmike@us.ibm.com>
[PATCH] Call release on scsi legacy LLDD
In the sysfs scsi host reference counting merge the call to a legacy hosts
release function was removed.
This patch adds the call back in.
This patch was tested with insmod / rmmod on LLDDs using the legacy interface
and LLDDs using the new interface:
Legacy Interface:
qla2xxx-v8.00.00b1
qlogicisp
aic7xxx_old (Does not call scsi_unregister in release, but unloaded)
New Interface:
scsi_debug
aic7xxx (Many illegal context warnings caused by mid vs LLDD primitive
mixing, but appears to unload clean).

[PATCH] fix irq handling for DC395
this fix makes sure that all test in irq handling in that
driver are for NULL thus fixing an oops.
<dougg@torque.net>
[PATCH] scsi_mid_low_api.txt in lk 2.5.69
This is a catch up, applying the patch that Andries
Brouwer sent a while back. It will apply to lk 2.5.69
and 2.5.69-bk10 .
<hch@lst.de>
[PATCH] give ->proc_info a struct Scsi_Host * parameter
Yeah, I know the method is obsolete but for proper refcounting we
need to get rid of all those scsi_host_hn_get() abusers.
scsi_host_hn_get() and scsi_host_put() are not exported anymore
after this patch.
<stevef@steveft21.ltcsamba>
Make return code on failed cifs mounts more specific and fix incorrect smb to posix return code conversions

Aic7xxx and Aic79xx Updates
o Consistently access the COMMAND PCI space register
via 16bit operations.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic79xx Update
o Add support for the 7901B
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic79xx Driver Update
o Change handling of the Rev. A packetized lun output bug
to be more efficient by having the sequencer copy the
single byte of valid lun data into the long lun field.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>

<jejb@raven.il.steeleye.com>
Fix up proc_info conversion in 53c700
The host variable is now passed in, so we shouldn't have a
similar variable defined in the proc_info routine
<anton@samba.org>
ppc64: fix for boot cpu > 31
<perex@suse.cz>
ALSA update
- fixed sscape driver Makefile
- fixed spin deadlock in PCM midlevel
- added AC'97 detection workaround to ens1370 and nm256 drivers
<jejb@mulgrave.(none)>
Fix while in spinup loop of sd
We must loop on UNIT ATTENTION sense (to clear the condition). However, the code
is assuming that a sense condition will always be accompanied by a not good status.
We have several drivers in the tree that return GOOD with DRIVER_SENSE, so make the
loop condition reflect this.
<anton@samba.org>

<Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl>
[PATCH] isa_writeb args interchanged
<Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl>
[PATCH] scsi: ten -> use_10_for_rw / use_10_for_ms
In the old days, ancient scsi devices understood 6-byte commands
and more recent ones also understood 10-byte commands.
Thus, we had a "ten" flag indicating that 10-byte commands worked.
These days, especially for usb-storage devices, the opposite
sometimes holds - 10-byte commands are supported, but 6-byte commands
are not.
The patch below changes the field ten into the pair of fields
use_10_for_rw, use_10_for_ms set initially when the driver
thinks these are supported. Ifthe device returns ILLEGAL_REQUEST
they are cleared.
This patch obsoletes a large amount of code in usb-storage,
and not only that, once the subsequent patch removes all this
usb-storage code many devices will work that hang today.

[PATCH] scsi: allow devices to restrict start on add
When a SCSI disk is added and it returns a NOT READY the SD driver is
automatically sending a START_UNIT command to spin the device up. While this
may be the desired behavior for many if not most devices not all devices
either want or need this. The attached patch provides a mechanism via the
device_list that allows a device to be defined to disable the automatic start
being issued on an add.
The patch also modifies the device_list for several devices that would prefer
to not have the start command issued.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic7xxx Driver Update
o Fix disabling of PCI parity error interrupts. We need to set
FAILDIS in the SEQCTL register, not the HCNTRL register.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic7xxx and Aic79xx Driver Updated
o Remove "cam_status cam_status" code where the variable
name shaddows the type. This is legal, but a bit
confusing.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic7xxx Driver Update
o Correct/Simplify ignore wide residue message handling
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic7xxx Driver Update
o Be more conservative in testing FIFOEMP before calling an
overrun on a data transfer.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic79xx Driver Update
o Correct/Simplify ignore wide residue message handling
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Aic7xxx and Aic79xx Driver Updates
o Fix style nits.
<gibbs@overdrive.btc.adaptec.com>
Bump aic79xx driver version to 1.3.9

PPC32: Better handling of program check exceptions on 4xx, patch from Kumar Gala.
With this patch we read the ESR (exception syndrome register) early on in handling
the program check exception, before reenabling the MMU and save it in the stack
frame. This avoids having the value overwritten by a subsequent exception.

[PATCH] SCSI: Make sysfs attributes mutable
The attached patch makes the sysfs attributes a property of the host
template (I can't really see a reason why the actual attributes need to
change per host, so I think the template is the better place for them).
I've also provided helper functions to modify the attributes in the LLD
init routines.
<James.Bottomley@steeleye.com>
[PATCH] Use of the new attribute modifiers on the 53c700
The attached patch illustrates how the new attribute functions can be
used.
The 53c700 modifies the queue_depth attribute so it can be set by the
root user, and also adds a new active_tags attribute which may be used
to obtain the information it currently puts out via its proc interface.
This achieves all I think we really need, which is the ability to have
LLDs provide their own routines for setting the default attributes.

qla1280: convert the driver to be endian neutral
This makes the driver compile and run on the PARISC platform.
The biggest issue for this driver is the firmware layout because
the chip insists on reading from firmware a 16 bit word at a time,
so the entire byte layout of the firmware had to be reversed.

[PATCH] truncate and timestamps
This patch will put us back to the 2.4 behaviour while preserving the
truncation speedup. It's a bit dopey (why do the timestamp update in
the fs at all?) but changing this stuff tends to cause subtle
problems.

<viro@www.linux.org.uk>
[PATCH] callout removal: callout is gone

tty_open() and kill the code that handles them in /proc/tty/drivers.

[PATCH] md: Export bio_split_pool for md to use.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Use new single page bio splitting for raid0 and linear
Sometimes raid0 and linear are required to take a single page bio that
spans two devices. We use bio_split to split such a bio into two.
The the same time, bio.h is included by linux/raid/md.h so
we don't included it elsewhere anymore.
We also modify the mergeable_bvec functions to allow a bvec
that doesn't fit if it is the first bvec to be added to
the bio, and be careful never to return a negative length from a
bvec_mergable funciton.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Handle concurrent failure of two drives in raid5
If two drives both fail during a write request, raid5 doesn't
cope properly and will eventually oops.
With this patch, blocks that have already been 'written'
are failed when double drive failure is noticed, as well as
blocks that are about to be written.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Improve test for which raid1 device doesn't need to be written to.
Instead of testing last_used (which could change in unusual circumstances) we
test against the bdev that we read frmo, and don't write back to there.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Fix simple off-by-one error in md driver.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Get rid of vmalloc/vfree from raid0
raid0 currently uses vmalloc instead of kmalloc. This patch
changes to kmalloc.
There is one allocation that can occasionally be very large - the hash_table.
A subsequent patch will address this issue.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Always allow a half-built md array to be stopped.
When starting an array fails, we have to tear it down, but
in some circumstances (particularly autostart_array) the
reference count will be 3, so do_md_stop will fail.
With this patch we only worry about the number of users
is the array has been fully started.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Improve raid0 mapping code to simplify and reduce mem usage.
To cope with a raid0 array with differing sized devices,
raid0 divides an array into "strip zones".
The first zone covers the start of all devices, upto an offset
equal to the size of the smallest device.
The second strip zone covers the remaining devices upto the size of the
next smallest size, etc.
In order to determing which strip zone a given address is in,
the array is logically divided into slices the size of the smallest
zone, and a 'hash' table is created listing the first and, if relevant,
second zone in each slice.
As the smallest slice can be very small (imagine an array with a
76G drive and a 75.5G drive) this hash table can be rather large.
With this patch, we limit the size of the hash table to one page,
at the possible cost of making several probes into the zone list
before we find the correct zone.
We also cope with the possibility that a zone could be larger than
a 32bit sector address would allow.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Remove dependancy on MD_SB_DISKS from multipath
Multipath has a dependancy on MD_SB_DISKS which is no
longer authoritative. We change it to use a separately
allocated array.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Remove dependancy on MD_SB_DISKS from raid5
One embeded array gets moved to end of structure and
sized dynamically.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Remove dependancy on MD_SB_DISKS from raid0
Arrays with type-1 superblock can have more than
MD_SB_DISKS, so we remove the dependancy on that number from
raid0, replacing several fixed sized arrays with one
dynamically allocated array.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Remove MD_SB_DISKS limits from raid1
raid1 uses MD_SB_DISKS to size two data structures,
but the new version-1 superblock allows for more than
this number of disks (and most actual arrays use many
fewer).
This patch sizes to two arrays dynamically.
One becomes a separate kmalloced array.
The other is moved to the end of the containing structure
and appropriate extra space is allocated.
Also, change r1buf_pool_alloc (which allocates buffers for
a mempool for doing re-sync) to not get r1bio structures
from the r1bio pool (which could exhaust the pool) but instead
to allocate them separately.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] md: Remove dependance on MD_SB_DISKS in linear personality
Linear uses one array sized by MD_SB_DISKS inside a structure.
We move it to the end of the structure, declare it as size 0,
and arrange for approprate extra space to be allocated on
structure allocation.

[PATCH] create m68knommu/coldfire specific ints.c
Create a m68knommu/ColdFire specific ints.c. It is just simpler to
have one for each sub-architecture (which means we currently need 3
for the 3 prominant m68knommu families). Each can handle the hardware
setup differences, and there is a few at this level.
<gerg@snapgear.com>
[PATCH] remove common m68knommu ints.c
Remove the m68knommu common ints.c. No longer needed with each
sub-architecture now having its own.
<gerg@snapgear.com>
[PATCH] don't compile m68knommu/kernel ints.c

[netdrvr bonding] fix long failover in 802.3ad mode
This patch fixes the bug reported by Jay on April 3rd regarding long
failover time when releasing the last slave in the active aggregator. The
fix, as suggested by Jay, is to follow the spec recommendation and send a
LACPDU to the partner saying this port is no longer aggregatable and
therefore trigger an immediate re-selection of a new aggregator instead of
waiting the entire expiration timeout.

[netdrvr bonding] fix ABI version control problem
This fix makes bonding not commit to a specific ABI version if the ioctl
command is not supported by bonding.
(It also removes the '\n' in the continuous printk reporting the link down
event in bond_mii_monitor - it got in there by mistake in our previous
patch set and caused log messages to appear funny in some situations).

[netdrvr pcnet32] bug fixes
I would like to see a couple of the pcnet32 changes that I think we can
agree on be put into the trees so a couple of the potential defects can be
avoided. The following patch contains just these pieces. The only
controversial one is an arbitrary change in the number of iterations in a
while loop spinning on hardware state. No matter how this is done, I am
not especially fond of this bit of code as it has no reasonable error
recovery path -- however, as a half-way, incremental solution, increasing
the polling time should help as the 100 value was certainly found to be
insufficient. 1000 may not be sufficient either, but it is certainly no
worse.
Both of the other changes were hit in testing (and I belive the wmb() at a
customer even), so it would help reduce some debug if these go in. Any
feedback is appreciated - thanks.

[PATCH] procfs bug exposed by cdev changes
fs/inode.c assumes that any ->delete_inode() will call clear_inode().
procfs instance doesn't. It had passed unpunished for a while; cdev changes
combined with ALSA creating character devices in procfs made it fatal.
Patch follows. It had fixed ALSA-triggered memory corruption here -
what happens in vanilla 2.5.70 is that clear_inode() is not called when
procfs character device inodes are freed. That leaves a freed inode on
a cyclic list, with obvious unpleasantness following when we try to traverse
it (e.g. when unregistering a device).

Then cardbus_remove() calls class_device_unregister(), which calls
pcmcia_unregister_socket(), which it turn tries to access memory

[PATCH] USB: allocate memory for reset earlier
if we fail with -ENOMEM, we should do it before the device must be
reparsed.
<mdharm-usb@one-eyed-alien.net>
[PATCH] USB: storage: abort and disconnect handling.
This patch re-organizes abort handling and enhances disconnect handling.
Not only do we keep track of the state (ABORTING, IDLE, etc.), but during
an abort we now introduce the idea of 'okay to send' or not. The idea is
that we can now implement reset-after-abort properly.
We also track if we're disconnecting, and use that data to determine if we
can submit URBs or not. Which means we can now disconnect during an abort.
This patch is from Alan Stern.
<mdharm-usb@one-eyed-alien.net>
[PATCH] USB: storage: collapse one-use functions
This patch collapses some one-use functions into their callers. It also
clones some code for control transfers so we can implement abortable

Remove usb_stor_bulk_msg() and usb_stor_interrupt_msg(). Move their
functionality into usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf() and
usb_stor_intr_transfer().
Move the functionality of usb_stor_control_msg() into
usb_stor_ctrl_transfer().
Remove the unused act_len parameter from usb_stor_intr_transfer().

for the scsi stack to move forward so please try to forward this

[PATCH] irq balance logic fix
From: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
The logic is: the global variable is set to the magic value
IRQBALANCE_CHECK_ARCH. It can be overwritten by a __setup function. If
the magic value is still set when the irq balancer is started it asks the
subarchitecture using the NO_BALANCE_IRQ macro. This is defined to a
genapic field in the generic architecture, otherwise constant. Then the
global variable is set and when it is true no balancing happens.
Previously I had this wrong in that it always disabled it.
This part should be correct, but it still doesn't seem to work.
(I left the printk in there until the problem is debugged, could be removed
of course)

[PATCH] Remove unneeded fcntl check
The NR_OPEN check in F_DUPFD is unneeded. viro says:
"We check the limits in locate_fd() (called by dupfd()). Check for NR_OPEN
can (and should) be dropped - locate_fd() will never go beyond that
(expand_fd() will check it and refuse to go).
"IOW, simply lose the check. We _might_ want to check signedness, but that's
it (IOW, check that arg will fit into 0..MAX_INT; second argument of dupfd()
is an int). OTOH, we might actually make dupfd() et.al. take unsigned long
and kill that crap completely."
And indeed, the signedness is suspicious, so make various things in there
unsigned too.

[PATCH] support 64 bit pci_alloc_consistent
From: Jes Sorensen <jes@wildopensource.com>
This is patch which provides support for 64 bit address allocations from
pci_alloc_consistent(), based on the address mask set through
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask(). This is necessary on some platforms which
are unable to provide physical memory in the lower 4GB block and do not
provide IOMMU support for cards operating in certain bus modes, such as
PCI-X on the SGI SN2.
The default mask for pci_alloc_consistent() is still 32 bit as there are 64
bit capable hardware out there that doesn't support 64 bit addresses for
descripters etc. Likewise, platforms which provide IOMMU support in all
bus modes can ignore struct pci_dev->consistent_dma_mask and just return a
32 bit address as before.
The patch also includes changes to tg3.c to make it use the new api as well
as a documentation update. I have done my best on the documentation part,
if anyone feel the can make my scribbles clearer, please do.
Thanks to Dave Miller, Grant Grundler, James Bottomley, Colin Ngam, and
Jeremy Higdon for input and code/documentation portions.

excuse to disregard the specification. "Jiffies" are USER_HZ, 10ms on
IA-32 platforms and has to be scaled to kernel "jiffies," as suggested
below. As for "(jiffies - start_time) * (1000 / HZ)" vs.
"((jiffies - start_time) * 1000) / HZ." Just think that HZ is 1024 on

o n_hdlc: CodingStyle cleanups and removal of old stuff
- remove include kerneld.h, long gone
- some 80 column reformatting
- removal of typedefs
- c99 style documentation, using the existing function documentation
- add MODULE_AUTHOR
- remove GET_USER, COPY_TO_USER and friends
- remove ssize_t typedef, already in the kernel headers
- remove rw_count_t and rw_ret_t, use simple int and size_t as in the
tty ops prototypes and avoiding casts for return
- make strings in printk in init/exit module routines __initdata/__exitdata
saving some bytes after module init and for the case where this driver is
statically linked in the kernel (__exitdata is trown away)
This makes this driver comply with parts of CodingStyle (more to be done) and
makes it looks more like the rest of the kernel, making it easier to read/debug.
Have been using this modifications with ADSL/syncppp for some time, working well.

[PATCH] matroxfb update to new API
This updates the matroxfb driver to the new framebuffer API.
I'm sorry that it is quite large, but due to completely changed
underlying API there is no reasonable way how to split it into smaller
pieces.
- Removed support for text mode. No way for it with current API.
- Removed support for hardware cursor. Generic cursor code has enough
troubles as is, in software mode.
- No reasonable fbset support... It is especially annoying on multihead
system, as 'stty cols XXX rows YYY' does not change pixclock...
- Removed fastfont support. No way for it with current API.
(Mis)features inherited from generic fbdev API:
- Cursor on other framebuffers than primary one does not blink.
- Contents of visible, but not foreground, display is not updated.

[PATCH] USB: usb-storage: timeouts and aborts
This patch adds timeouts to usb_stor_control_msg(). Now we will no longer

This also includes the new serial-number for auto-REQUEST-SENSE change.
The new serial number has one bit toggled from the old, guaranteeing that
it is unique.

function attempt to clear a halt condition on both bulk pipes even if one

[PATCH] I2C: fix oops w83781d during rmmod
This fixes the oops during w83781d module removal by putting the

Also, I fixed a bug where this driver would request and release an

it again.
This patch against 2.5.70 works for me vs. an SMBus adapter. It needs

[PATCH] magazine layer for slab
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
slab.c is not very efficient for passing objects between cpus. Usually this
is a rare event, but with network routing and cpu-affine NICs it is possible
that nearly all allocation operations will occur on one cpu, and nearly all
free operations on another cpu.
This causes slab memory to be returned to slab's free page list rather than
being cached on behalf of the particular slab cache.
The attached patch solves that by adding an array of objects that is shared
by all cpus. Instead of multiple linked list operations per object, object
pointers are now passed to/from the shared array (and thus between cpus) with
memcopy operations. On uniprocessor, the default array size is 0, because
the shared array and the per-cpu head array are redundant.
Additionally, the patch exports more statistics in /proc/slabinfo and make
the array sizes tunable by writing to /proc/slabinfo. Both changes break
backward compatibility, user space scripts must look at the slabinfo version
and act accordingly.
The size of the new shared array may be altered at runtime, by writing to
/proc/slabinfo.
The new parameters for writing to /proc/slabinfo are:
#echo "cache-name limit batchcount shared" > /proc/slabinfo
For example "size-4096 120 60 8" improves the slab efficiency for network
routing, because the default values (24 12 8) are too small for the large

[PATCH] More irq balance fixes
From: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
John Stultz noticed that kirqd didn't start because of another logic error,
which broke irq balancing. This was still a fallout from the generic
subarchitecture changes.
Actually it still refuses to balance anything on my test box, but perhaps
I'm just not able to generate enough interrupts.
Anyways, with this patch the thread is running again at least.

[PATCH] dirty_writeback_centisecs fixes
This /proc tunable sets the kupdate interval. It has a couple of problems:
- No way to turn it off completely (userspace dirty memory management
solutions require this).
- If it has been set to one hour and then the user resets it to five
seconds, that resetting will not take effect for up to an hour.
Fix that up by providing a sysctl handler. Setting the tunable to zero now
disables the kupdate function.

[PATCH] improved core support for time-interpolation
From: David Mosberger <davidm@napali.hpl.hp.com>
Basically, what the patch does is provide two hooks such that platforms
(and subplatforms) can provide time-interpolation in a way that guarantees
that two causally related gettimeofday() calls will never see time going
backwards (unless there is a settimeofday() call, of course).
There is some evidence that the current scheme does work: we use it on ia64
both for cycle-counter-based interpolation and the SGI folks use it with a
chipset-based high-performance counter.
It seems like enough platforms do this sort of thing to provide _some_
support in the core, especially because it's rather tricky to guarantee
that time never goes backwards (short of a settimeofday, of course).
This patch is based on something Jes Sorensen wrote for the SGI Itanium 2
platform (which has a chipset-internal high-res clock). I adapted it so it
can be used for cycle-counter interpolation also. The net effect is that
"last_time_offset" can be removed completely from the kernel.
The basic idea behind the patch is simply: every time you advance xtime by
N nanoseconds, you call update_wall_time_hook(NSEC). Every time the time
gets set (i.e., discontinuity is OK), reset_wall_time_hook() is called.

[PATCH] /proc/kcore fixes
From: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
/proc/kcore has been broken on some architectures for a long time. Problems
surround the fact that some architectures allocate memory for vmalloc() and
thus modules at addresses below PAGE_OFFSET, which results in negative file
offsets in the virtual core file image provided by /proc/kcore. There are
also pending problems for discontig memory systems as /proc/kcore just
pretends that there are no holes between "PAGE_OFFSET" and "high_memory", so
an unwary user (ok super-user) can read non-existant memory which may do bad
things. There may also be kernel objects that would be nice to view in
/proc/kcore, but do not show up there.
A pending change on ia64 to allow booting on machines that don't have
physical memory in any convenient pre-determined place will make things even
worse, because the kernel itself won't show up in the current implementation
of /proc/kcore!
The patch attached provides enough hooks that each architecture should be
able to make /proc/kcore useful. The patch is INCOMPLETE in that *use* of
those hooks is ONLY PROVIDED FOR IA64.
Here's how it works. The default code in fs/proc/kcore.c doesn't set up any
"elf_phdr" sections ... it is left to each architecture to make appropriate
calls to "kclist_add()" to specify a base address and size for each piece of
kernel virtual address space that needs to be made accessible through
/proc/kcore. To get the old functionality, you'll need two calls that look
something like:
kclist_add(&kcore_mem, __va(0),
max_low_pfn * PAGE_SIZE);
kclist_add(&kcore_vmem, (void *)VMALLOC_START,
VMALLOC_END-VMALLOC_START);
The first makes all of memory visible (__i386__, __mc68000__ and __x86_64__
should use __va(PAGE_SIZE) to duplicate the original lack of access to page
0). The second provides a single map for all "vmalloc" space (the code still
searches the vmlist to see what actually exists before accessing it).
Other blocks of kernel virtual space can be added as needed, and removed
again (with kclist_del()). E.g. discontiguous memory machines can add an
entry for each block of memory. Architectures that allocate memory for
modules someplace outside of vmalloc-land can add/remove entries on module
insert and remove.
The second piece of abstraction is the kc_vaddr_to_offset() and
kc_offset_to_vaddr() macros. These provide mappings from kernel virtual
addresses to offsets in the virtual file that /proc/kcore instantiates. I
hope they are sufficient to avoid negative offset problems that plagued the
old /proc/kcore. Default versions are provided for the old behaviour
(mapping simply adds/subtracts PAGE_OFFSET). For ia64 I just need to use a
different offset as all kernel virtual allocations are in the high 37.5% of
the 64-bit virtual address space. x86_64 was the other architecture with
this problem. I don't know enough (anything) about the kernel memory map on
x86_64, so I hope these provide a big enough hook. I'm hoping that you have
some low stuff, and some high stuff with a big hole in the middle ... in
which case the macros might look something like:
#define kc_vaddr_to_offset(v) ((v) < 0x1000000000000000 ? (v) : \
((v) - 0xF000000000000000))
But if you have interesting stuff scattered across *every* part of the
unsigned address range, then you won't be able to squeeze it all into a
signed file offset.
There are a couple of bug fixes too:
1) get_kcore_size() didn't account for the elf_prstatus, elf_prpsinfo
and task_struct that are placed in the PT_NOTE section that is
part of the header. We were saved on most configurations by the
round-up to PAGE_SIZE ... but it's possible that some architectures
or machines corrupted memory beyond the space allocated for the
header.
2) The size of the PT_NOTES section was incorrectly set to the size
of the last note, rather than the sum of the sizes of all the notes.

[PATCH] remove 16-bit pid assumption from ipc/sem.c
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
SysV sem operations that involve multiple semaphores can fail in the
middle, and then sempid (pid of the last successful operation) must be
restored. This happens with "sempid >>= 16" - broken due to the 32-bit pid
values. The attached patch fixes that by reordering the updates of the
semaphore fields.
Additionally, the patch fixes the corruption of the sempid value that occurs
if a wait-for-zero operation fails.
The patch is more than two years old, and was in -dj and -ak kernels.
<jim.houston@attbi.com>
[PATCH] preallocate signal queue resource - Posix timers
This adds a new interface to kernel/signal.c which allows signals to be
sent using preallocated sigqueue structures. It also modifies
kernel/posix-timers.c to use this interface.
The current timer code may fail to deliver a timer expiry signal if
there are no sigqueue structures available at the time of the expiry.
The Posix specification is clear that the signal queuing resource should
be allocated at timer_create time. This allows the error to be returned
to the application rather than silently losing the signal.
This patch does not change the sigqueue structure allocation policy. I
hope to revisit that in another patch.
Here is the definition for the new interface:
struct sigqueue *sigqueue_alloc(void)
Preallocate a sigqueue structure for use with the functions
described below.
void sigqueue_free(struct sigqueue *q)
Free a preallocated sigqueue structure. If the sigqueue
structure being freed is still queued, it will be removed
from the queue. I currently leave the signal pending.
It may be delivered without the siginfo structure.
int send_sigqueue(int sig, struct sigqueue *q, struct task_struct *p)
This function is equivalent to send_sig_info(). It queues
a signal to the specified thread using the supplied sigqueue
structure. The caller is expected to fill in the siginfo_t
which is part of the sigqueue structure.
int send_group_sigqueue(int sig, struct sigqueue *q, struct task_struct *p)
This function is equivalent to send_group_sig_info(). It queues
the signal to a process allowing the system to select which thread
will receive the signal in a multi-threaded process.
Again, the sigqueue structure is used to queue the signal.
Both send_sigqueue() and send_group_sigqueue() return 0 if the signal
is queued. They return 1 if the signal was not queued because the
process is ignoring the signal.
Both versions include code to increment the si_overrun count if the
sigqueue entry is for a Posix timer and they are called while the
sigqueue entry is still queued. Yes, I know that the current code
doesn't rearm the timer until the signal is delivered. Having this
extra bit of code doesn't do any harm, and I plan to use it.
These routines do not check if there already is a legacy (non-realtime)
signal pending. They always queue the signal. This requires that
collect_signal() always checks if there is another matching siginfo
before clearing the signal bit.

[ARM] Convert platform devices to use platform_device
Since struct platform_device now has the ability to pass resources,
defined by the platform to the device driver, we can now use this
to handle platform specific devices. One such instance is the
StrongARM SA1111 companion chip, which can appear in various address
spaces, and connected to different IRQ lines depending on how many
cups of coffee the hardware designer had, the direction of the wind
outside the designers office that day.
We also convert some of the other StrongARM peripheral on-chip
devices to use struct platform_device.
ARM also provides a platform_add_devices() function which can be
used by platform code to bulk-register a tabular set of platform
devices.

[ARM] Tidy up Integrator core support.
This merges arch.c, irq.c and mm.c into one core file for this

o net: create struct sock_common and use in struct sock & tcp_tw_bucket
With this the data dependency is reduced to just making sure that the first
member of both struct sock and struct tcp_tw_bucket are a struct sock_common.
Also makes it easier to grep for struct sock and struct tcp_tw_bucket usage in
the tree as all the members in those structs are prefixed, respectively, with
sk_ and tw_, like struct inode (i_), struct block_device (bd_), etc.
Checked namespace with make tags/ctags, just one colision with the macros for
the struct sock members, with a wanrouter struct, fixed that
s/sk_state/state_sk/g in the wanrouter struct.
Checked as well if the names of the members in both structs collided with some
macro, none found.

[PATCH] radio-cadet.c: remove unnecessary copy_to_user()
From: Hollis Blanchard <hollisb@us.ibm.com>
As pointed out by the Stanford checker, 'v' is not tainted. The driver
shouldn't be using copy_to_user() in cadet_do_ioctl() at all:
cadet_do_ioctl() is being called by drivers/media/video/videodev.c:
video_usercopy(), which has already copied the buffer 'arg' (aka 'v')
into kernel space, and will copy it back after cadet_do_ioctl()
returns. So all the direct 'v' accesses are correct.

[PATCH] remove unsafe BUG_ON()
From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>
PageDirty BUG_ON in __remove_inode_page is, and always has been, unsafe for

set_page_dirty in zap_pte_range (amongst a few other possibilities).
!PageUptodate error in __set_page_dirty_buffers is unsafe then too.

The user buffer is copied to/from kernel space by
drivers/media/video/videodev.c:video_usercopy().

[PATCH] Graceful failure in devfs_remove()
From: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>, via Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>
It's already the second time that I encounter a kernel panic in the same
place. When devfs_remove() is called on a non-existent file entry, the
kernel panics and I have to reboot the system.
First time it was unregistering of pseudoterminals. This time it's
ide-floppy module that doesn't register devfs entries if the media is absent
but still tries to unregister them. The bug in ide-floppy will be reported
separately.
The point of this message is that the failure in devfs_remove() is possible,
especially with rarely used drivers. Secondly, is not fatal enough to
justify an immediate panic and reboot. Thirdly, devfs misses a chance to
tell the user what's going wrong.
<akpm@digeo.com>
[PATCH] Fix generic_file_write() again.
From: "Milton D. Miller II" <miltonm@realtime.net>
The code at present has a small problem: when a fault is encountered we will
run commit_write() to cover the amount of data which was successfully copied
in from userspace.
But filemap_copy_from_user() may have zeroed out some more of the page. So
pagecache now has zeroes and the buffer_head which represents those zeroes is
not dirtied. So a subsequent eviction and re-read of the file in the window
beyond the faulting offset will return the file's old contents and not the
zeroes.
So we change filemap_copy_from_user_iovec() to have the same behaviour as the
non-iovec filemap_copy_from_user(), and ensure that the commit_write() covers
the parts of the page which copy_from_user() zeroed out.

[PATCH] reiserfs option parser fix and ability to pass
From: Oleg Drokin <green@namesys.com>
This patch adds support for remounting taking into account all extra options
you may want to pass it. (by Jeff Mahooney).
Also it reworks the parser to correctly deal with mutually exclusive options.
Now whatever option was specified last will take an effect.
- If you pass more than one jdev= option, the error will be reported and
mount/remount refused.
- If you pass incorrect alloc= suboptions, the mount/remount will fail.
(it did not before).
- nolargeio now actually looks at its argument. Argument is expected to be
numeric. If it is zero, default io size is set to 128k (default setting),
if it is non-zero, default io size is set to PAGE_SIZE.
<akpm@digeo.com>
[PATCH] reiserfs support for blocksizes other than 4096 bytes
From: Oleg Drokin <green@namesys.com>
This patch allows reiserfs to support blocksizes from 1024 bytes and up to
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE. Also it fixes two glitches that prevent reiserfs from
working correctly in case if PAGE_CACHE_SIZE is bigger than blocksize.
Originally this patch was created by Edward Shushkin and Vladimir Saveliev,
and then it was adapted to modern 2.4 and 2.5 by me.
Also people should be aware that 1024 bytes blocksize is not very good thing
as tree grows very fast. mkreiserfs is able to create filesystems with
different blocksizes for quite a while already (-b switch).

[PATCH] hugetlbfs: mount options and permissions
From: "Seth, Rohit" <rohit.seth@intel.com>
This patch enables system administrators to more flexibly assign read/write
permissions to files in hugetlbfs. Mount options are added which will
specify the uid, gid and mode of the filesystem's root directory.
This patch also enables super users to do chown/chgrp on files in hugetlbfs.
Also included in this patch is the support for uid, gid and mode command line
options for mount command for hugetlbfs.
The following mount options are added to hugetlbfs:
uid=value gid=value mode=value
The values may be specified in hex (0xNNN), decimal or octal (0NNN).

[PATCH] ext3: fix deadlock in journal_create()
From: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
journal_create() is called under down_write(s_umount) on the mount path. But
it calls fsync_bdev(), which wants down_write(s_umount).
Change journal_create() to run sync_blockdev() instead. Just to write out
the new journal's blocks.

[PATCH] allow thread_info to be allocated as part of task_struct
This re-organizes the thread info allocations a bit, so that
architectures like ia64 that want to allocate the thread_info structure
as part of the task structure allocation can do so.
The bulk of the patch is adding the "tsk" information to the thread
info allocator (ignored by all non-ia64 architectures), and switching
the order of the allocators to make this all possible.

[PATCH] Fix raid5 bug where wrong 'dev' is used.
<neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
[PATCH] Fix raid1 handling of writing to multiple devices.
When raid1 writes, it needs to schedule writes to some number
of devices, and when all writes have completed, the r1_bio
structure that holds it all together must be freed.
However we must make sure not to free it before all devices
have been considered for submitting writes to.
This happens in two places: when submitting a normal write request
and when submiting a write as part of resync.
This patch makes both these places:
the same
simpler
more correct.

[PATCH] get rid of CONFIG_ALL_PPC
This patch gets rid of CONFIG_ALL_PPC, which was a very confusing
option, since it didn't actually mean "ALL" at all, it was more a
"common set" thing.
The primary replacement for CONFIG_ALL_PPC is CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM.
I have also defined CONFIG_PPC_PMAC, CONFIG_PPC_PREP and CONFIG_PPC_CHRP
for selecting code which is only needed for one of the three platforms
that CONFIG_ALL_PPC represented. This is something that we (the PPC
community) have been talking about doing for some time. There is also a
CONFIG_PPC_OF which is for PPC machines with Open Firmware, which is
currently powermacs and CHRP machines.
At the moment, CONFIG_PPC_{PMAC,PREP,CHRP,OF} get unconditionally
defined if CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM is selected, but in future this
split will let us have more control over what gets included, so that
for example we don't necessarily have to include powermac bits in a
kernel for a PReP machine.
I have gone through the uses of CONFIG_ALL_PPC one by one and decided
which of the new symbols best represents the set of machines that need
the code in question. In fact most of the uses of CONFIG_ALL_PPC in
the drivers have been replaced by CONFIG_PPC_PMAC. The other symbols
are mostly confined to the PPC architecture code.

[fs] Remove kobject support for filesystems
It was initially added for the immediate gain of being able to see what
filesystems were registered in the system. However, it was done without
proper analysis of the lifetime rules associated with them.

use kobjects, though it will take sufficent time and effort to get it right.
Until then, we go without..

[CPUFREQ] kill cpufreq_driver export.
From Dominik Brodowski.
This removes the special export of cpufreq_driver for proc_intf.c. Instead,

[kobject] Remove kobj_lock and use lockless refcounting.
The only thing preventing this from happening earlier was the circular sysfs
registration dependency - it would need to be initialized before it was
registered, but needed to be registered before it was initialized.
With kobjects gone from struct filesystem_type, the dependency no longer
exists and we don't have to special-case the possibility that a kobject will
be passed to kobject_get with a refcount == 0.
Note that a kobject with a count of 0 in that function is still a bug, but
one in the subsystem making the call. We should add a debugging hook to dump
the stack if it does happen.

[CPUFREQ] Fix ACPI P-State driver.
from Dmitry Torokhov.
I have the following problems with ACPI P-States driver:
- It crashes because it tries to switch CPU speed without registering cpufreq
driver first but acpi_processor_set_performance calls cpufreq_notify_transition.
- When testing for capable CPUs it skips all online ones so for my single CPU
notebook it can't activate at all.
- If a processor does not support throttling then it will say that "limit"
interface is not supported even after activating performance control.
The patch below should fix these issues. It also adds some info messages since
/proc/acpi/processor/*/performance interface is marked obsolete but i still
would like to see if P-states were recognized during boot.
