[ACPI] PCI IRQ update (Bjorn Helgaas)
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2574
mp_parse_prt() and iosapic_parse_prt() used to allocate all
IRQs, whether devices needed them or not. Some devices
failed because the this method enabled unused PCI Interrupt
Link Devices, which disrupted active link devices.
Now the PRT knowledge is pulled out of the arch
code and the IRQ allocation and IO-APIC programming
is done by pci_enable_device().
This is also a step toward allowing the addition
of new root bridges and PRTs at run-time.
The architecture supplies
unsigned int
acpi_register_gsi(u32 gsi, int edge_level, int active_high_low)
which is called by acpi_pci_irq_enable(). ACPI supplies
all the information from the PRT, and the arch sets up
the routing and returns the IRQ it allocated.

[NETDRV #2] Use driver-specific name for resources
Here is the next part which uses a driver-specific name instead of
dev->name for resource allocations prior to netdev registration.
It also changes printks that are in direct response to errors in
resource allocations.

[PATCH] ipr duplicate ioa reset fix
This patch closes a window where if a device had a cancel all
outstanding as a result of a check condition and the adapter
was reset for some reason, a request sense would still be issued,
which would end up timing out and issuing an additional adapter
reset. It could also result in a leak of command blocks, depending
on when it timed out.

[PATCH] Stop megaraid trashing other i960 based devices
From: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com>
In 2.4 the megaraid driver was careful to avoid stepping on wrong devices.
Specifically the megaraid3 series devices used an intel pci ID (8086:1960)
which is the generic i960 identifier not their own.
The code to do this in 2.4 worked for almost all cases, but even that code
has
mysteriously vanished in 2.6 meaning the megaraid driver trashes stuff like
promise i2o cards and compaq management cards.
The following patch puts back the 2.4 stuff + one additional check so that
the
driver isn't quite as rude as it was before.

[PATCH] USB: Move usb_new_device() et al. into hub.c
This patch moves usb_new_device(), usb_disconnect(), usb_choose_address(),
and usb_release_address() from usb.c to hub.c. As a side benefit,
choose_address() and release_address() can now become static. The other
two can't, because they have to be exported for use by HCD's when
registering/unregistering root hubs.
Some other features of the patch:
The usb_snddefctrl() and usb_rcvdefctrl() macros have been
removed, since only one of them was used and only in one spot.
The comment about configuration choice needing to interact with
hub power budgeting has been moved in accordance with David's
wish. usb_new_device() checks to make sure a configuration
could be chosen and logs a warning if no choice was made.
Following Linus's preference, the #ifdef preprocessor stuff has
been removed from around the calls the show_string routine. It
is now defined as a non-inline routine when debugging is enabled
and as an inline no-op otherwise (the compiler will optimize
away the useless tests).

- Add struct class::class_dev_attrs to do something similarly for

gets that set of attributes added for them, and subsequently removed
when the device is unregistered.
Each array depends on a terminating attribute with a NULL name. Hint:
use the new __ATTR_NULL macro to terminate it.

So the patch adds the ids for the kyocera and makes the treo_attach

I converted your patch to use the DMA-API. This will be necessary to
use the EISA advansys boards---Of course, EISA won't work properly until
the entire driver is converted to the driverfs probing API, sigh, but
I'll get around to that eventually.
OK, and I couldn't resist getting rid of the stupid in_isr locking on
the done function.

It introduces msecs_to_jiffies() conversions and uses msleep().
It wakes up threads waiting for an endpoint to be disabled
in the oddball case where interrupts aren't working. (This
should have been in a previous patch but I missed it.)
It disables PCI interrupt generation whenever the controller
is reset and enables it when the controller is started. This

[PATCH] USB: Debounce all connect change events
This patch makes the hub driver debounce all connection changes. Right
now the driver only does so if the status happens to be CONNECTED at one
particular instant. However, the whole point of debouncing is that the
connection is subject to transient interruptions until it has stabilized;
hence deciding whether to debounce based on a single initial test defeats
the entire purpose.
There are some additional smaller changes that go along with the major
one:
Comments added to hub_port_connect_change() detailing the
conditions under which it will be called.
Don't clear the port's connect-changed feature if it wasn't
set.
Skip debouncing if there wasn't a physical connection change
but only a logical port-enable change (or a firmware-download-
induced device morph -- not yet implemented).
Clear all the hub status change indicators in hub_events()
before handling a connect change. This will reduce syslog
clutter from status change bits that remain set while khubd
is busy taking care of a new device.
The patch includes no changes to the debounce routine itself. Please
apply.

[PATCH] USB: Superficial improvements to hub_port_debounce()
Since my previous suggestions for changes to hub_port_debounce()
encountered so much resistance, this patch makes some fairly superficial
improvements to the code while leaving the logic of the algorithm almost
completely intact. The only behavioral change is that it actually
requests the port status at the start, rather than assuming the status is
not CONNECTED. Changes include:
Vastly improved comments that are now unambiguous and accurately
descriptive of the code.
Local variables changed to more sensible names. The stability
period is now reported in milliseconds rather than a meaningless
poll count.
The sleep interval is moved from the start of the loop to the
end, so that the first time through we read the port status
immediately.
If the connection has not stabilized after the total timeout
expires, -ETIMEDOUT is returned rather than whatever the
current connect status happens to be.
If the connection does stabilize then the port status is returned
so that hub_port_connect_change() will have an up-to-date value
for the status rather than relying on the pre-debounce value.
The changes I wanted to make but other people were worried about are
included as comments. A later (small) patch will uncomment them for
testing.

[PATCH] USB: Genuine changes to hub_port_debounce()
This patch includes the algorithmic changes I would like to see in
hub_port_debounce(). They are:
Increase the total timeout period from 400 ms to 1500 ms.
Check the port's connect-changed status during the polling
loop.
Return as soon as the connection has been stable for the
required time, even if it has been stably _dis_-connected.
(The current code waits for the full timeout period if there
isn't a connection.)
In previous emails I have responded to all the concerns raised by others
about these changes, and I can't imagine how they could cause any trouble.
Increasing the total timeout won't affect people with properly
functioning hardware. Their connections will quickly stabilize
and the routine will return just as before. People with flaky
hardware that takes a long time to settle down will now be able
to use their devices.
Checking the connect-changed status during the polling loop will
make the test more conservative. The code will be able to
detect transient disconnections that it would have missed
before, and it won't return until the connection really _is_
stable. Furthermore, this makes the test compliant with the
USB specification, which requires the stability timer to be
restarted whenever a connection change occurs.
Returning early for disconnections is a simple optimization.
It's more important now that the total timeout length is 1.5
seconds rather than 0.4 seconds.
I urge you to apply this patch and for people to try it out. If there do
turn out to be problems... the patch is very small, well-contained, and
easy to revert.

[PATCH] Module section offsets in /sys/module
So here I am trying to write about how one can apply gdb to a running
kernel, and I'd like to tell people how to debug loadable modules. Only
with the 2.6 module loader, there's no way to find out where the various
sections in the module image ended up, so you can't do much. This patch
attempts to fix that by adding a "sections" subdirectory to every module's
entry in /sys/module; each attribute in that directory associates a
beginning address with the section name. Those attributes can be used by a
a simple script to generate an add-symbol-file command for gdb, something
like:
#!/bin/bash
#
# gdbline module image
#
# Outputs an add-symbol-file line suitable for pasting into gdb to examine
# a loaded module.
#
cd /sys/module/$1/sections
echo -n add-symbol-file $2 `/bin/cat .text`
for section in .[a-z]* *; do
if [ $section != ".text" ]; then
echo " \\"
echo -n " -s" $section `/bin/cat $section`
fi
done
echo
Currently, this feature is absent if CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set. I do
wonder if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO might not be a better choice, now that I think
about it. Section names are unmunged, so "ls -a" is needed to see most of
them.

stalls with error -3.
2. Removed some usb_clear_halt() lines. Without this, the device doesn't even
open and returns -7.

[PATCH] ia64: fix ia32 virtual memory leaks due to partial-page mappings
Certain IA-32 applications which do mmap/munmaps which are not
PAGE_SIZE aligned could see temporary (recovered at process exit time)
memory leaks, because the kernel didn't have enough data to decide if
the complete page could be unmapped. This patch adds a new data
structure called the "partial page list" which helps the kernel keep
track of precisely which 4k pages are in use by the IA-32 application.
Armed with this data, the kernel can make better decisions at munmap
and mprotect time. No significant performance degradation was observed
in the workloads we tested and in some cases, the performance actually
improved! This is possibly due to the reduced length of the vma list.

[PATCH] USB: Fix resource leakage in the hub driver
The hub driver is very careless about returning resources when an error
occurs while installing a new device. This patch attempts to put some
order back into the situation. Details:
Since usb_new_device() allocates neither the device structure
nor the device address, it shouldn't release either one.
Because usb_new_device() no longer releases the device structure,
usb_register_root_hub() doesn't need to take an extra reference
to it.
Since the device address selection and TT setup code is used
only for new devices, not ones being reset, move that code from
hub_port_init() to hub_port_connect_change(). By the same token,
hub_port_init() doesn't have to release the device address or
the device structure.
Just to make things look better, move the failure code in
hub_port_init() to the end of the routine. And when disabling
endpoint 0, disable both the IN and OUT parts of the endpoint.
In hub_port_connect_change(), make all the failure paths
execute the same code so that resources are always released.
These resources comprise: the pointer from the parent to the
new child device, the HCD state for ep0, the device's address,
and the device structure itself -- in short, everything that's
set up before calling usb_new_device().

[PATCH] USB: rndis (1/4) update OID support
NDIS devices have a generic attribute get/set API where the attributes
are identified by 32 bit "OIDs". This fixes some problems with the OIDs
supported by the original RNDIS patch:
- It included OIDs not found in the RNDIS spec. These have been
removed. As a rule, these weren't exported in the "OIDs I support"
list, and only a couple wouldn't fail those accesses, so this mostly
changes what debug printk appears.
- OIDs used for optional 802.3 statistics were partially supported.
They're all in the OID list now, but the support is #ifdeffed out.
(Those statistics were mostly just made up, anyway!)
- "Required" OIDs for suspend, resume, and wakeup support weren't
listed. Their messages are now defined, but support is #ifdeffed
out. Seems the docs aren't entirely accurate, and Windows can
behave reasonably without them. (This area needs help from someone
who knows MS-Windows power management.)
There are also a few minor cleanups, more reasonable default volume level
for debug messages (never at KERN_INFO, keepalives only if VERBOSE), and
dumping of all bytes of some undocumented messages Windows XP has been
seen emitting shortly before the host suspended itself.

[PATCH] USB: Fix bus-list root-hub race
There are a few places where the code enumerates through all the USB
devices on all the buses, starting with each bus's root hub and working
down. However a bus does not always have a root hub, and the code does
not check that the root_hub pointer is non-NULL. This patch fixes the
problem, using the usb_bus_list_lock semaphore to synchronize access when
root hubs are added or removed.
In addition it seemed like a good idea to minimize the time that a
non-fully-configured root hub is accessible through the bus's pointer. So
this patch delays setting the pointer and holds usb_bus_list_lock while
configuring a root hub.
It turned out that a bunch of things needed to be changed for all this to
work:
Check for NULL root_hub pointer in usb_device_read() and
usb_find_device().
Pass the root-hub device as a separate argument to
hcd_register_root().
Make usb_register_root_hub() acquire the usb_bus_list_lock and
set the bus->root_hub pointer.
For consistency's sake, move the place where the children[]
pointer to a non-root-hub device gets stored as close as possible
to where usb_new_device() is called.
Make usb_disconnect() acquire the usb_bus_list_lock when removing
a root hub.
Change usb_hcd_pci_remove() and the non-PCI host drivers so that
they call usb_disconnect() with a pointer to the bus's root_hub
pointer, not a pointer to a temporary variable.
Change all the host controller drivers not to store the root_hub
pointer in the bus structure but instead to pass it as a new
argument to hcd_register_root().
I made some attempt to update the hc_sl811 driver along with the rest, but
it's pretty clear that driver won't work in the current framework. Among
other things, it never reads the root hub's device descriptor. To what
extent is the driver really supported?

requirements are listed too, though they aren't all

Fulfill the new locking requirement in hcd_panic().
Remove unneeded local variables to conserve stack space in
usb_disconnect(), which calls itself recursively.
In hub_port_connect_change(), store the parent's children[]
pointer as late as possible and don't lock the new device until
then (that's when it becomes globally accessible). This will
minimize the time that the not-fully-configured device structure
is visible to other parts of the kernel.

[PATCH] ia64: fix race in fsys_bubble_down to avoid fp-register corruption
The fast system-call fall-back-path has a race: it reads PSR, modifies
some bits, then writes back the new PSR. Unfortunately, the contents
of PSR may change between reading and writing it. For example, an
interrupt could occur which could trigger a context-switch. The
context-switch might in turn flush the floating-point-high (FPH)
partition to memory, clear PSR.MFH, and set PSR.DFH. To prevent this
race, the patch below turns off PSR.I before reading PSR.
This fixes a floating-point corruption problem that was observed on a
system with a libc which has the fast system-call support enabled.
The performance impact is minimal (on the order of a handful of cycles).

[PATCH] fealnx-mac-address-and-other-issues.patch
(resend - I need to get this out of my tree my one means or another..)
From: "SuD (Alex)" <sud@latinsud.com>
I recently was given a surecom 10/100 ethernet card and found that i could
not change Mac address for it as other driver/devices allow. I tried to
implement the missing feature and noticed that the device is quite peculiar
(or either my system is broken), when trying to fill mac address registers
(no matter whether io_ops is set): - If I write a byte (writeb) to an even
i/o address it seems like actually a word was written (the next byte is set
to 0). - If I write a byte to an odd i/o address my pc gets bad freezed.
That made think of writing 16bit words (writew) for the memory address, as
opposed to what most driver examples do. It works for me (I hope i set the
lines at the right place in device_open function after the device is
reset). I hope the code is clean enough and does not mess with byte
ordering. This is the patch (this time against 2.6.5):
(akpm: Is this right on big-endian?)

[PATCH] USB: Mark devices as NOTATTACHED as soon as possible
This patch implements something we've been lacking for a long time: a way
to mark devices as USB_STATE_NOTATTACHED as soon as we know that they're
gone. The usb_device->state member is no longer protected by the
->serialize semaphore; instead there's a new private spinlock. Usbcore
routines should no longer set ->state directly; instead they should use
the new utility routine usb_set_device_state(). There are protections
against changing states while devices are being added or removed.
Change assignments to udev->state into calls of
usb_set_device_state().
Add new private device_state_lock to the hub driver, along
with usb_set_device_state() and recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED().
Acquire the new spinlock while adding or removing children[]
pointers.
When disabling a port that has a child device, mark the child
as NOTATTACHED.

I made changes to rpaphp code, so it can handle multi-fuction

changed pci_dev (a single pci_dev type pointer) to pci_funcs( a list of
pci_dev type pointers). I rewrote some of the config/unconfig code to
support the slot struct change.
Along with above changes, I added LDRSLOT(logical I/O slot) support.
We need LDRSLOT support for DLPAR I/O. A card in a LDRSLOT can't be
physically removed, but can be logically removed from one partiton and
reassinged to another partition.

When a node is added to sysfs (e.g. a device plugged in via USB), the

case, sysfs makes use of the function simple_unlink from fs/libfs.c which
takes care of that. Instead of using simple_link from fs/libfs.c on

[PATCH] USB Storage: INQUIRY fixup, mode-sense options, Genesys devices
This patch does a few things (all in the same section of code). It started
life as patches as226b, as280, and as275. Later it was merged into as226e
and I added significantly to it.
First, this patch introduces a new config option to allow people to enable
write-protect detection for their USB devices. With some luck, we've
finally got it right and can eventually remove this option in favor of
enabling this behavior all the time.
Next, we change how we force some flags on -- it turns out that there are
some 'generic' entries in the SCSI devinfo which was overriding us when we
didn't want it.
Finally, we add a safety check to the workaround for GeneSys Logic devices
-- if the max_sectors parameter has already been turned down, we won't turn

[PATCH] USB Storage: Fix race when removing the SCSI host
This patch fixes a race is disconnecting a usb-storage device that occurs
with the SCSI layer. It's primarily reproducable via adding delays into
various disconnect and reset processing paths, but has also been
encountered in the field.
This patch started life as as281b, and was modified by me only to patch
properly against current kernels.
The main features of the patch are:
Store the host pointer at the start of the control thread
rather than trying to get it from srb->device; after the host
is removed the SCSI device structure may no longer exist.
Keep dev_semaphore locked during the entire time the control
thread or reset handlers are using the us_data structure.
Reorder the items in dissociate_dev() and release_resources()
so that things are released in the opposite order from the way
they were acquired originally. Don't bother to increment and
decrement the usb_device's reference count; it's unnecessary.
In disconnect(), first set the DISCONNECTING flag so that no
more I/O will take place and no more requests will be accepted.
Next, cut short the current command and wait for it to finish.
Then call scsi_remove_host(). The SCSI core guarantees that
when scsi_remove_host() returns, the host will not be in error
recovery and all outstanding commands will have been cancelled.
Remove some old useless left-over code that was #if'ed out.
Use a wait_queue for the 6-second delay during device resets
so that we can be woken up in the middle if a disconnect occurs.
The key point here is that after scsi_remove_host(), everything is idle as
far as the SCSI midlayer is concerned. But if there was a command in
progress at the time, the midlayer will abort it without telling us or
waiting for it to complete. Hence we have to wait for the control thread
to be idle before we can try to kill it. This should happen quickly,
since all I/O attempted by the thread will fail immediately.

JFS: Don't allow reading beyond the inode map's EOF
If we try to read inodes that are beyond the size of the inode map,
__read_metapages would read unitialized pages into the inode map's
address space. If the inode map is later grown in order to allocate
more inodes, the page is initialized and written under a different
address space. Having the stale page in the page cache prevents the
properly initialized page from being read, and results in errors.
This problem can be provoked by an nfs client trying to read an inode
that does not exist.

[libata] don't probe from workqueue
Since we want the probe phase to call other workqueues, this is
required to eliminate future deadlocks.
Other methods would include starting a single-shot thread just for
probing, but overall, using a separate thread for probing is pointless
since we are already in process context when we probe.
So, we simply call ata_bus_probe directly.

[PATCH] USB: Remove private khubd semaphore
This patch removes the private semaphore used by the hub driver, and uses
the regular "serialize" semaphore instead. This will satisfy the general
locking requirements for adding and removing devices attached to the hub.
The only tricky aspect is that now the hub event handler must take a
reference to the hub device while waiting to acquire the semaphore, in
case the hub is disconnected during the wait.
The patch also replaces a few occurrences of spin_lock_irqsave() in
regions where interrupts are known to be enabled with spin_lock_irq().

[libata] PCI IDE DMA code shuffling
PCI IDE DMA standard (or "bmdma") helper routines ata_bmdma_stop,
ata_bmdma_ack_irq, and ata_bmdma_status are added to linux/libata.h,
and used in libata-core.
There is a minor behavior change, such that, the Alt Status register
is read before acknowledging the bmdma interrupt. This should be ok,
and furthermore there will be more significant behavior changes
in this area coming soon.
<jgarzik@pobox.com>
[libata] PCI IDE command-end/irq-acknowledge cleanup
Restruct default irq handler (used for many PCI IDE-like SATA
controllers) to obtain device status and acknowledge interrupts
a bit differently.
In an attempt to better attack the "ich5 screaming interrupt" problem,
acknowledge and clear the device's INTRQ by reading the Status register
_before_ ack'ing the controller's irq status. This is a deviation
from how the Linux IDE driver acknowledges interrupts, but it may
be the best method, since the ICH5 appears to continue to assert
the interrupt bit in the BMDMA until the device INTRQ line is cleared.
Of course, SATA has no INTRQ line per se, so ICH5 essentially has
new interrupt behavior not seen before in the PCI IDE world, while
pretending that it's compatible with PCI IDE. Sigh.
This change affects all SATA controllers (for which there are libata
drivers) except for sata_promise and sata_sx4.

NTFS: - Add new element itype.index.collation_rule to the ntfs inode
structure and set it appropriately in ntfs_read_locked_inode().
- Implement a new inode type "index" to allow efficient access to the
indices found in various system files and adapt inode handling
accordingly (fs/ntfs/inode.[hc]). An index inode is essentially an
attribute inode (NInoAttr() is true) with an attribute type of
AT_INDEX_ALLOCATION. As such, it is no longer allowed to call
ntfs_attr_iget() with an attribute type of AT_INDEX_ALLOCATION as
there would be no way to distinguish between normal attribute inodes
and index inodes. The function to obtain an index inode is
ntfs_index_iget() and it uses the helper function
ntfs_read_locked_index_inode(). Note, we do not overload
ntfs_attr_iget() as indices consist of multiple attributes so using
ntfs_attr_iget() to obtain an index inode would be confusing.

[ARM] Add clock API
Since peripheral clocks are be derived in SoC or even platform
specific ways, we need a way to keep this information out of the
drivers. AMBA Primecells are defined in terms of functional units
where clocks are derived from external sources, and it is up to the
SoC designer to determine where to derive those clocks from.
Therefore, we provide a very basic API which allows platforms to
provide this information in a generic manner to their peripherals.
This framework also allows peripherals to shut down unused clock
sources when they're not in use.

SDRAM
Patch from Marc Singer
[if's replaced by ifdef's.]
While the BLOB boot loader doesn't support it, there are two others,
UBOOT and Logic's LOLO, that will initialize the SDRAM controller such
that the memory appears as a contiguous region. This layout to be
required for WinCE and, thus, is the default for these loaders. The
memory organization had been optimized for discontiguous blocks. Now,
it supports a default mode that is compatible with all of the
bootloaders as well as options to optimize for either contiguous or
discontiguous models.
Withing, there is also a slight change to the way that the DEBUG_LL
macros select the UART address. Now it uses immediate constants
exclusively.

This is a resend of an earlier patch to dst_dev_event. I've changed
it slightly by moving the input/output assignment into dst_ifdown.
To recap, this patch drops lingering IPsec references to a device that
is being unregistered. The child processing in the GC is too late
since it never runs until the reference on the dst hits zero which
could take a long time for things like TCP connections.
The reason I've left the input/output assignment outside the loop is
because they aren't really necessary for the IPsec dst's, and if
it were in the loop then we'll have to do the same child processing
in ___dst_free as well.

[PATCH] USB: Only process ports with change events pending
This patch adds a bit-array to the hub driver's private data structure,
used for storing the contents of the hub's interrupt status message. That
message indicates which ports have events pending (and whether the hub
itself has events pending). By only polling the status of the ports
listed in the bit-array we can save a fair amount of overhead in hub
communication.
(The #error test added to hub.h is a little awkward, but it's purely
precautionary -- it won't matter until someone decides to support hubs
with more than 31 ports!)
Also included in the patch, since this seemed the perfect opportunity for
it, is Byron's suggestion for handling hub events in the order in which
they were received.

[PATCH] ppc64: Optimize exception/syscall entry/exit
This rewrites the PPC64 exception entry/exit routines to make them
smaller and faster.
In particular we no longer save all of the registers for the common
exceptions - system calls, hardware interrupts and decrementer (timer)
interrupts - only the volatile registers. The other registers are saved
and restored (if used) by the C functions we call. This involved
changing the registers we use in early exception processing from r20-r23
to r9-r12, which ended up changing quite a lot of code in head.S.
Overall this gives us about a 20% reduction in null syscall time.
Some system calls need all the registers (e.g. fork/clone/vfork and
[rt_]sigsuspend). For these the syscall dispatch code calls a stub that
saves the nonvolatile registers before calling the real handler.
This also implements the force_successful_syscall_return() thing for
ppc64.

[PATCH] mm: flush TLB when clearing young
Traditionally we've not flushed TLB after clearing the young/referenced bit,
it has seemed just a waste of time. Russell King points out that on some
architectures, with the move from 2.4 mm sweeping to 2.6 rmap, this may be a
serious omission: very frequently referenced pages never re-marked young, and
the worst choices made for unmapping.
So, replace ptep_test_and_clear_young by ptep_clear_flush_young throughout
rmap.c. Originally I'd imagined making some kind of TLB gather optimization,
but don't see what now: whether worth it rather depends on how common
cross-cpu flushes are, and whether global or not.
ppc and ppc64 have already found this issue, and worked around it by
arranging
TLB flush from their ptep_test_and_clear_young: with the aid of pgtable rmap
pointers. I'm hoping ptep_clear_flush_young will allow ppc and ppc64 to
remove that special code, but won't change them myself.
It's worth noting that it is Andrea's anon_vma rmap which makes the vma
available for ptep_clear_flush_young in page_referenced_one: anonmm and
pte_chains would both need an additional find_vma for that.

[PATCH] Handle non-readable binfmt_misc executables
<background>
I work in a group that works on enabling the IA-32 Execution Layer
(http://www.intel.com/pressroom/archive/releases/20040113c...) on Linux.
In a few words - this is a dynamic translator for IA-32 binaries on IPF
platform. Following David Mosberger's advice - we use the binfmt_misc
mechanism for the invocation of the translator whenever the user tries to
exec an IA-32 binary.
The EL is meant to help in the migration path from IA-32 to IPF. From our
beta customers we learnt that at first stage - they tend to keep their
environment mostly intact, using the legacy IA-32 binaries.
Such an environment has, naturally, setuid and non-readable binaries. It
will be useless to ask the administrator to change the settings of such an
environment - some of them are very complex, and the administrators are
reluctant to make any changes in a system that already proved itself to be
robust and secure. So, our target with these patches is not to enhance the
support for scripts but rather to allow a translator to be integrated into a
working environment that is not (and should not be) aware to the fact it's
being emulated.
As I said before - it is practically hopeless to expect an administrator of
such a system to change it so that it will suit the current behavior of
binfmt_misc. But, even if we could do that,
I'm not sure it would be a good idea - these changes are likely to be less
secure than the suggested patches -
- In order to execute non-readable binaries the binary will have to be made
readable, which is obviously less secure than allowing only a trusted
translator to read it
- There will be no way for the translator to calculate the accurate
AT_SECURE value for the translated process. This might end up with the
translated process running in a non-secured mode when it actually needs to
be secured.
</background>
I prepared a patch that solves a couple of problems that interpreters have
when invoked via binfmt_misc. currently -
1) such interpreters cannot open non-readable binaries
2) the processes will have their credentials and security attributes
calculated according to interpreter permissions and not those of the
original binary
the proposed patch solves these problems by -
1) opening the binary on behalf of the interpreter and passing its fd
instead of the path as argv[1] to the interpreter
2) calling prepare_binprm with the file struct of the binary and not the
one of the interpreter
The new functionality is enabled by adding a special flag to the registration
string. If this flag is not added then old behavior is not changed.
A preliminary version of this patch was sent to the list on 9/1/2003 with the
title "[PATCH]: non-readable binaries - binfmt_misc 2.6.0-test4". This new
version fixes the concerns that were raised by the patch, except of calling
unshare_files() before allocating a new fd. this is because this feature did
not enter 2.6 yet.
Arun Sharma <arun.sharma@intel.com> says:
We were going through an internal review of this patch:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=107424...
which is in your tree already. I'm not sure if this line of code got
sufficient review.
+ /* call prepare_binprm before switching to interpreter's file
+ * so that all security calculation will be done according to
+ * binary and not interpreter */
+ retval = prepare_binprm(bprm);
The case that concerns me is: unprivileged interpreter and a privileged
binary. One can use binfmt_misc to execute untrusted code (interpreter) with
elevated privileges. One could argue that all binfmt_misc interpreters are
trusted, because only root can register them. But that's a change from the
traditional behavior of binfmt_misc (and binfmt_script).
(Update):
Arun pointed out that calculating the process credentials according to the
binary that needs to be translated is a bit risky, since it requires the
administrator to pay extra attention not to register an interpreter which is
not intended to run with root credentials.
After discussing this issue with him, I would like to propose a modified
patch: The old patch did 2 things - 1) open the binary for reading and 2)
calculate the credentials according to the binary.
I removed the riskier part of changing the credentials calculation, so the
revised patch only opens the binary for reading. It also includes few words
of warning in the description of the 'open-binary' feature in
binfmt_misc.txt, and makes the function entry_status print the flags in use.
As for the 'credentials' part of the patch, I will prepare a separate patch
for it and send it again to the LKML, describe the problem and ask for people
comments.

[PATCH] binfmt_misc: improve calculation of interpreter's credentials
This patch allows for misc binaries to run with credentials and security
token that are calculated according to the binaries, and not according to the
interpreter, which is the legacy behavior of binfmt_misc.
The way it is done is by calling prepare_binprm, which is where these
attributes are calculated, before switching the 'file' field in the bprm from
the binary to the interpreter.
This feature should be used with care, since the interpreter will have root
permissions when running a setuid binary owned by root.
Please note -
- Only root can register an interpreter with binfmt_misc. The feature is
documented and the administrator is advised to handle it with care
- The new feature is enabled only with a special flag in the registration
string. When this flag is not specified the current behavior of
binfmt_misc is kept
- This is the only 'right' way for an interpreter to know the correct
AT_SECURE value for the interpreted binary
From: Chris Wright <chrisw@osdl.org>
This patchset looks OK, except for one problem. It installs the fd (which
could've been unreadable) without unsharing the ->files. So someone can
use
this to read unreadable yet executable files. Here's a patch which fixes
that up. I added one bit that's commented out because I'm not positive if
a
final steal_locks() is needed.
I did a fair amount of rearranging to simplify the error conditions
relative to the fd_install(), and unshare_files().
From: Chris Wright <chrisw@osdl.org>
I found that the intel patchset (and mine as well) leaked i_writecount on

This patch cleans up needless includes of asm/pgalloc.h from the drivers/
subtree. drivers/char/mem.c has been compile tested; the others have not,
since they are for non-x86 and non-ARM architectures.
This patch is part of a larger patch aiming towards getting the include of
asm/pgtable.h out of linux/mm.h, so that asm/pgtable.h can sanely get at
things like mm_struct and friends.
I suggest testing in -mm for a while to ensure there aren't any hidden arch
issues.

[PATCH] reiserfs: block allocator optimizations
From: <mason@suse.com>
From: <jeffm@suse.com>
The current reiserfs allocator pretty much allocates things sequentially
from the start of the disk, it works very nicely for desktop loads but
once you've got more then one proc doing io data files can fragment badly.
One obvious solution is something like ext2's bitmap groups, which puts
file data into different areas of the disk based on which subdirectory
they are in. The problem with bitmap groups is that if you've got a
group of subdirectories their contents will be spread out all over the
disk, leading to lots of seeks during a sequential read.
This allocator patch uses the packing locality to determine which bitmap
group to allocate from, but when you create a file it looks in the bitmaps
to see how 'full' that packing locality already is. If it hasn't been
heavily used yet, the packing locality is inherited from the parent
directory putting files in new subdirs close to the parent subdir,
otherwise it is the inode number of the parent directory putting new
files far away from the parent subdir.
The end result is fewer bitmap groups for the same working set. For
example, one test data set created by 20 procs running in parallel has
6822 subdirs. And with vanilla reiserfs that would mean 6822
packing localities. This patch turns that into 26 packing localities.
This makes sequential reads of big directory trees more efficient, but
it also makes the btree more efficient in general. Things end up sorted
better because groups of subdirs end up with similar keys in the btree,
instead of being spread out all over.
The bitmap grouping code tries to use the start of each bitmap group
for metadata, and offsets the data slightly. The data and metadata
are still close together, but not completely intermixed like they are
in the default allocator. The end result is that leaf nodes tend to be
close to each other, making metadata readahead more effective.
The old block allocator had the ability to enforce a minimum
allocation size, but did not use it. It now tries to do a pass looking
for larger allocation chunks before falling back to the old behaviour
of taking any blocks it can find.
The patch changes the defaults to:
mount -o alloc=skip_busy:dirid_groups:packing_groups
You can get back the old behaviour with mount -o alloc=skip_busy
mount -o alloc=dirid_groups will turn on the bitmap groups
mount -o alloc=packing_groups turns on the packing locality reduction code
mount -o alloc=skip_busy:dirid_groups turns on both dirid_groups and
skip_busy
Finally the patch adds a mount -o alloc=oid_groups, which puts files into
bitmap groups based on a hash of their objectid. This would be used for
databases or other situations where you have a limited number of very
large files.
This command will tell you how many packing localities are actually in
use:
debugreiserfs -d /dev/xxx | grep '^|.*SD' | sed 's/^.....//' | awk '{print
$1}' | sort -u | wc -l

[PATCH] reiserfs: block allocator should not inherit "packing locality 1"
reiserfsck --rebuild-tree expects the only key with a packing locality of 1
to
be for the root directory (key [1 2]). The new block allocator inherited
that
packing locality down to subdirectories, which triggers failures in
reiserfsck
--rebuild-tree
reiserfsck in readonly check mode doesn't complain about this, thanks to Jeff
Mahoney for finding it.
The fix is to never inherit packing locality #1

[PATCH] Fixes for idr code
* On a 32-bit architecture, the idr code will cease to work if you add
more than 2^20 entries. You will not be able to find many of the
entries. The problem is that the IDR code uses 5-bit chunks of the
number and the lower portion used by IDR is 24 bits, so you have one bit
that leaks over into the comparisons that should not be there. The
solution is to mask off that bit before doing IDR processing. This
actually causes the POSIX timer code to crash if you create that many
timers. I have included an idr_test.tar.gz file that demonstrates this
with and without the fix, in case you need more evidence :).
* When the IDR fills up, it returns -1. However, there was no way to
check for this condition. This patch adds the ability to check for the
idr being full and fixes all the users. It also fixes a problem in
fs/super.c where the idr code wasn't checking for -1.
* There was a race condition creating POSIX timers. The timer was added
to a task struct for another process then the data for the timer was
filled out. The other task could use/destroy time timer as soon as it is
in the task's queue and the lock is released. This moves settup up the
timer data to before the timer is enqueued or (for some data) into the
lock.
* Change things so that the caller doesn't need to run idr_full() to find
out the reason for an idr_get_new() failure.
Just return -ENOSPC if the tree was full, or -EAGAIN if the caller needs
to re-run idr_pre_get() and try again.

[PATCH] idr: remove counter bits from id's
idr_get_new() currently returns an incrementing counter in the top 8 bits of
the counter. Which means that most users have to mask it off again, and we
only have a 24-bit range.
So remove that counter. Also:
- Remove the BITS_PER_INT define due to namespace collision risk.
- Make MAX_ID_SHIFT 31, so counters have a 0 to 2G-1 range.
- Why is MAX_ID_SHIFT using sizeof(int) and not sizeof(long)? If it's for
consistency across 32- and 64-bit machines, why not just make it "31"?
- Does this still hold true with the counter removed?
/* We can only use half the bits in the top level because there are
only four possible bits in the top level (5 bits * 4 levels = 25
bits, but you only use 24 bits in the id). */
If not, what needs to change?

[PATCH] IDR fixups
There were definately some problems in there. I've made some changes and
tested with a lot of bounds. I don't have a machine with enough memory to
fill it up (it would take ~16GB on a 64-bit machine), but I use the "above"
code to simulate a lot of situations.
The problems were:
* IDR_FULL was not the right value
* idr_get_new_above() was not defined in the headers or documented.
* idr_alloc() bug-ed if there was a race and not enough memory was
allocated. It should have returned NULL.
* id will overflow when you go past the end.
* There was a "(id >= (1 << (layers*IDR_BITS)))" comparison, but at
the top layer it would overflow the id and be zero.
* The allocation should return ENOSPC for an "above" value with
nothing above it, but it returned EAGAIN.
I have not tested on 64-bits (as I don't have a 64-bit machine).
I've included the files, a diff from the previous version, and my test
programs.
For the test programs, idr_test <size> will just attempt to allocate
<size> elements, check them, free them, and check them again.
idr_test2 <size> <incr> will allocate <size> element with <incr> between
them.
idr_test3 just tests some bounds and tries all values with just a few in

itself will call a special version of scsi_done that doesn't check the
timer).

[PATCH] Ext3: Retry allocation after transaction commit (v2)
Here is a reworked version of my patch to ext3 to retry certain filesystem
operations after an ENOSPC error. The ext3_should_retry_alloc() function
will
not wait on the currently running transaction if there is a currently active
handle; hence this should avoid deadlocks in the Lustre use case. The patch
is versus BK-recent.
I've also included a simple, reliable test case which demonstrates the
problem
this patch is intended to fix. (Note that BK-recent is not sufficient to
address this test case, and waiting on the commiting transaction in
ext3_new_block is also not sufficient. Been there, tried that, didn't work.
We need to do the full-bore retry from the top level. The
ext3_should_retry_alloc() will only wait on the committing transaction if
there is an active handle; hence Lustre will probably also need to use
ext3_should_retry_alloc() if it wants to reliably avoid this particular
problem.)

!CONFIG_PCI). However... the driver unconditionally includes linux/mca.h
which in turn unconditionally includes asm/mca.h.
This breaks drivers on platforms with ISA but not MCA, like alpha.

[PATCH] Validate PM-Timer rate at boot time
Add a check to the PM-Timer initialization code. It validates the PM-Timer
rate against PIT channel 2 and rejects the PM-Timer if its rate is not
withing 5% of the expected number.
Rationale:
The PMTMR timers of certain (older) mainboards are running at invalid
rates, often much faster than the rate expected by the PM-Timer code. This
causes the system clock to run much too fast. See also
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2375
Possible workarounds are disabling the PM-Timer in the kernel config or
disabling the PM-Timer at boot time through the "clock=tsc" parameter.
However, we believe it is more user friendly to automatically validate the
PM-Timer rate at boot time before using it as the system time source.
Tested by me (with broken timer) and John Stultz (with good timer) and
believed to be ok.

[PATCH] BSD accounting format rework
BSD accounting format rework:
Use all explicit and implicit padding in struct acct to
- correctly report 32 bit uid/gid,
- correctly report jobs (e.g., daemons) running longer than 497 days,
- increase the precision of ac_etime from 2^-13 to 2^-20
(i.e., from ~6 hours to ~1 min. after a year)
- store the current AHZ value.
- allow cross-platform processing of the accounting file
(limited for m68k which has a different size struct acct).
- introduce versioning for smooth transition to incompatible formats in
the future. Currently the following version numbers are defined:
0: old format (until 2.6.7) with 16 bit uid/gid
1: extended variant (binary compatible to v0 on M68K)
2: extended variant (binary compatible to v0 on everything except M68K)
3: a new binary incompatible format (64 bytes)
4: new binary incompatible format (128 bytes).
layout of its first 64 bytes is the same as for v3.
5: marks second half of new binary incompatible format (128 bytes)
(layout is not yet defined)
All this is accomplished without breaking binary compatibility. 32 bit
uid/gid support is compatible with the patch previously floating around and
used e.g. by Red Hat.
This patch also introduces a config option for a new, binary incompatible
"version 3" format that
- is uniform across and properly aligned on all platforms
- stores pid and ppid
- uses AHZ==100 on all platforms (allows to report longer times)
Much of the compatibility glue goes away when v1/v2 support is removed from
the kernel. Such a patch is at
http://www.physik3.uni-rostock.de/tim/kernel/2.7/acct-cle...
and might be applied in the 2.7 timeframe.
The new v3 format is source compatible with current GNU acct tools (6.3.5).
However, current GNU acct tools can be compiled for only one format. As
there
is no way to pass the kernel configuration to userspace, with my patch it
will
still only support the old v2 format. Only if v1/v2 support is removed from
the kernel, recompiling GNU acct tools will yield v3 support.
A preliminary take at the corresponding work on cross-platform userspace
tools
(GNU acct package) is at
http://www.physik3.uni-rostock.de/tim/kernel/utils/acct/
This version of the package is able to read any of the v0/v2/v3 formats,
regardless of byte-order (untested), even within the same file.
Cross-platform compatibility with m68k (v1 format) is not yet implemented,
but
native use on m68k should work (untested). pid and ppid are currently only
shown by the dump-acct utility.

[PATCH] iso9660: fix handling of inodes beyond 4GB
This is my fourth attempt to patch the isofs code. It is similar to the last
posting except this one implements the NFS get_parent() method which has
always been missing.
The original problem I set out to addresses is that the current iso9660 file
system cannot reach inodes located beyond the 4GB barrier. This is caused by
using the inode number as the byte offset of the inode data. Being 32-bits
wide, the inode number is unable to reach inode data that does not reside on
the first 4GB of the file system.
This causes real problems with "growisofs"
http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/#isofs4gb
and my pet project "shunt"
http://www.serice.net/shunt/
This patch switches the isofs code from iget() to iget5_locked() which allows
extra data to be passed into isofs_read_inode() so that inode data anywhere
on
the disk can be reached.
The inode number scheme was also changed. Continuing to use the byte offset
would have resulted in non-unique inodes in many common situations, but
because the inode number no longer plays any role in reading the meta-data
off
the disk, I was free to set the inode number to some unique characteristic of
the file. I have chosen to use the block offset which is also 32-bits wide.
Lastly, the pre-patch code uses the default export_operations to handle
accessing the file system through NFS. The problem with this is that the
default NFS operations assume that iget() works which is no longer the case
because of the necessity of switching to iget5_locked(). So, I had to
implement the NFS operations too. As a bonus, I went ahead and implemented
the NFS get_parent() method which has always been missing.

[PATCH] sisfb update 1.7.10
attached is an update for the sisfb driver to version 1.7.10.
This update includes
- fixes for pure 64bit and 32/64bit mixed systems (add ioctl conversion;
fix variable sizes, etc; REQUIRED for current X.org/XFree86 on 64bit
systems, even if pure 64bit),
- fixes for 301C video bridge, (scales TV output correctly now)
- fixes for 1600x1200 and 1400x1050 LCD panels,
- many fixes for 661/741/760 (amongst others, proper LFB support for the
760 and corrections for SiS' new BIOS data layout; would lead to display
corruption with old driver)
- add support for many modes for LCD which were unsupported previously,
- add support for HiVision and YPbPr HDTV
- "vga=" statement now honoured properly (sisfb will set the same mode as
the kernel did by default)
- use LCD native resolution mode if no mode is given
- a major clean up of main driver code,
- radical removal of duplicate (or nearly duplicate) code,
- switched to 2.6 module_param macros,
- enhanced communication with the X driver,
- added eventual POSTing of SiS300/305 card for non-x86 archs,
- added ability to relocate the image on the TV screen using a userland
tool,
- added Documentation/fb/sisfb.txt (why the heck was this missing?!)
- small fix for SiS DRM driver (match 32/64bit fixes mentioned above)
(cast the data passed to sis_free as u32)
- make driver re-entrant by avoiding static structures and variables.
As usual, heavily tested. The mode switching code is even lab-tested by
SiS (although 100% written by me). Please apply asap (especially since
64bit systems were not properly supported previously; as mentioned, current
X.org/XFree86 needs this update for proper communication with the
framebuffer driver on 64bit systems. X crashes on such systems with the
old driver).

[PATCH] 3c59x: support for ATI Radeon 9100 IGP
The following patch adds support for the 3Com networking core found in the
ATI Radeon 9100 IGP southbridge used on boards like Asus P4R800-VM.
The main point of this patch is using HAS_MII instead of HAS_NWAY for the
definition of the board. All the previous trials since the end of last
year used HAS_NWAY which disables the Tx part of the transceiver; using
HAS_NWAY was the way all 3Com Cyclone and Tornado chips worked, as they had
the transceiver integrated. The ATI solution has an external transceiver
and I had to physically see the different chip on the board (the board was
provided by ATI) to finally understand that it needs the HAS_MII
definition... I'm still waiting for some docs from ATI to clarify if this
is the correct way of handling this chip and if there are any differences
w.r.t EEPROM handling, but as it appears to work and was also confirmed by
other testers, I don't want to keep owners of such boards away from their
networks :-)
The textual identification was a bit hard to decide; it's called
"3c920B-EMB-WNM" in the Windows .INF file that Asus provides for their
boards. As this name was already used for PCI ID 9210, I added the
paranthesis which specifies where this chip is found.
The Scyld driver defines FEATURE_TORNADO to include HAS_NWAY. This board
would then probably need to not be defined with FEATURE_TORNADO, but the
same as in this patch.
I would like to publicly thank Tyson Vickers for both ideas and patience
during the last few weeks. He managed to get the driver working by
randomly setting driver parameters :-) But then he contacted me and worked
with me towards the solution.

returns the correct physical broadcast ID. It replaces all uses of

changes the checks during MP table parsing so the APIC ID is checked in
tandem with the version number.

[PATCH] Decrease stack usage in ncpfs's ioctl
It decreases stack consumption in one of ncpfs's paths from 3000 to 2200
bytes (and stack portion in ncpfs ioctl code from 1336 to 452 bytes).
- some code used large structure (with embeded 256 bytes for filename)
while it never passed filename around. Use something smaller in
ncp_conn_logged_in. Decrease 616 => 300.
- gcc-3.3 is very bad when it comes to parallel blocks in ioctl. Split
some branches from large switch to separate functions. ncp_ioctl now
uses 152 bytes of stack (instead of 720) and biggest child 64.

[PATCH] epoll: replace the file lookup hash with rbtrees
The epoll allocation for the fd lookup hash used to allocate up to 1MB
(depending on the "hint" size passed to epoll_create()) with
__get_free_pages(0), and this might lead to a "malicious" user to do
something like:
for (i = 0; i < 1024; i++)
epoll_create(BIG-NUM);
You can replace "malicious user" with IBM-ltp test suite, and the meaning
does not change. The above code might exhaust memory badly, even before
the file creation limit is topped. Also, the allocation was independent
from the number of fds pushed into the epoll fd hash. Using an rb-tree
ther will be not pre-allocation of the hash, and the size of the memory
used will be proportional to the number of fds pushed into the epoll fd.
The patch also removes 100 lines of code, that is never a bad thing ;)

[PATCH] Shift+PgUp if nr of scrolled lines is < 4
Using the vga console driver, if the number of the lines scrolled out is
less than four, then Shift+PageUp doesn't work.
The bug is closely related to the 'margin' feature of scrolling, which
means that if less than four lines should remain unvisible in the direction
we are scrolling to, then we scroll a little bit more just to see those few
lines. Kind of two small magnets at the borders of the buffer.
This bug was also reported with maybe a less clear description by Stepan
Koltsov (cc'ed just for fun) back in 2001 and he got no answer. I found it
at http://seclists.org/lists/linux-kernel/2001/Nov/0080.html
His patch simply disables margin support and hence everythings becomes
okay, but you lose a nice feature.
Here's a patch that retains margin support and fixes the bug. Works for
me, tested for a week. No guarantee. As I don't fully understand the code
(see also my previous mail) I'm not 100% sure that I'm doing the right
thing, so I'd prefer if someone would take a closer look at it.
At least 2.4 and 2.6 are affected, maybe older ones too.

Subject: pb in handling parameters on kernel command line
To: submit@bugs.debian.org (debian bug tracking system)
Hello, I found some bugs in kernel command line parser. AFAIK, they are not
Debian nor sparc specific but I'm not subscribed to linux-kernel mailing list
and since I'm involved with boot-floppies (mainly for sparc), I think I'm
right
to report it here. Feel free to forward it upstream (I checked the latest
2.3.46 sources and it seems these bugs are still there).
These bugs are not release critical. The latter just not gives the user a
chance to overwrite TERM env var at boot time. It could be just
inconvenient for serial console boot, and in this case, our busybox' init is
already enforcing TERM=vt102.
Nevertheless if it could not be fixed before the release, I could even write
a
workaround in busybox' init (it's just a matter of rewriting getenv()).
At last, it does not affect sysvinit package because serial console tty is
controlled by a getty process which is reading terminal settings on its
command
line (take a look in inittab for T0 entries, if any).
Ok, here is my modest contribution to kernel hacking. I don't know much
about
kernel internals but it seems that argument parsing is a bit broken.
One trivial patch for command line like "init=/bin/sh console=prom" where
console=prom is replaced by lot of spaces in previous call to setup_arch() on
sparc, therefore the line parsed by parse_options() is really
"init=/bin/sh " and a lot of null args are pushed into argv_init.
The other patch is for command line like "TERM=vt100" where both default &
user
TERM entries are pushed into the env array.
Taking a look into /proc/1/environ, it shows up:
HOME=/
TERM=linux
TERM=vt100
It appears that ash (maybe other shells too) is giving the latter entry but
glibc getenv() is giving the former. It is therefore impossible to get entry
from the user in a C program like busybox' init (used in Debian
boot-floppies).
I guess getenv() is not written to support duplicate entries, therefore the
kernel should avoid such construct.

There has been for some time a problem with certain CD-ROMs whose images

that in certain catalogue entries, the extension separator character '/'
(RISC OS uses '.' and '/' the other way round) was not replaced with '.';
thus Linux cannot properly parse this without this patch, thinking that it
is a directory separator.

[PATCH] mull'ify multiplication with HZ in __const_udelay()
John Stultz mentioned on lkml ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/6/5/15 ) that
calls to udelay() don't delay long enough, causing trouble e.g. in the USB
subsystem. The following patches address this issue.
Move the multiplication of (loops_per_jiffy * xloops) with HZ into the
"mull" asm operation. This increases the accuracy of the delay functions
largely:
n usec delay on a system with loops_per_jiffy = 1500000 :
n before after
1 1000 ticks 1499 ticks
10 14000 ticks 14999 ticks
n usec delay on a system with loops_per_jiffy = 100000 :
n before after
1 0 ticks 99 ticks
10 0 ticks 999 ticks
100 9000 ticks 9999 ticks
As noted by Kurt Garloff, it's necessary to adjust for large
loops_per_jiffies, as the multiplication of it with HZ fails for 4GHz or
larger. So, John Stultz suggested multiplying xloops with 4 first, and
multiplying with (HZ/4).

[PATCH] round up in __udelay()
Round up in __udelay(): 2**32 / 100000 is 4294.97, so it's more intuitive
to round up, and it causes more predictable results:
n usec delay on a 1500000 BogoMIPS system:
n before -mull after
1 1000 ticks 1499 ticks 1500 ticks
10 14000 ticks 14999 ticks 15000 ticks
n usec delay on a 100000 BogoMIPS system:
n before -mull after
1 0 ticks 99 ticks 100 ticks
10 0 ticks 999 ticks 1000 ticks
100 9000 ticks 9999 ticks 10000 ticks
While it can be argued that some time is also spent in the delay functions,
it's better to spend _at least_ the specified time sleeping, in my humble
opinion. And the overhead of a specific ->delay() implementation should be
substracted in the specific ->delay() implementation.

[PATCH] add 1 in __const_udelay()
The "mull" instruction in __const_udelay() cuts off the lower 32 bits --
so, it is "rounding down". This is both an issue for small ndelay()s for
_all_ values for loops_per_jiffy and for certain {n,u}delay()s for many
loops_per_jiffy values.
Assuming
LPJ = 1501115
udelay(87)
results in
130597 loops to be spent.
However, 1000 * 130597 / 1501115 is 86.999997 us, so we're actually
_rounding down_. 1000 * 130598 / 1501115 is 87.000662841, which would be
the technically correct thing to do. Of course, for the TSC case this
won't matter as the maths take some time, so the actual delay is
1000 * __udelay(x) / lpj + __OVERHEAD(x)
Anybody worried about both the additional overhead and the fact that the
overhead takes some time to run should add a check
if (unlikely(xloops < OVERHEAD))
return;
xloops -= OVERHEAD;
to the delay() routines in arch/i386/kernel/timers/*.c and determine
what the OVERHEAD is.

[PATCH] SELinux: Fine-grained Netlink support - add sk to netlink_send hook
Modifies the LSM netlink_send() hook so that it takes a struct sock

[PATCH] IPMI base patch to fix channel handling and add polling
This patch fixes some problems with handling of channel detection in the
driver. Some systems that are IPMI 1.5 do not implement the channel query
command. Also, the interface has to be fully up before the command is
ready.
This patch also adds a polling interface; this is required for situations
where interrupts are not running, but the system must still issue IPMI
commands, like when taking a crash dump.
It also updates the driver version to v32.

[PATCH] Hugetlb page bug fix for i386 in PAE mode
Hit a bug check when unmap a hugetlb vma in PAE mode on i386 (and x86-64).
Bad page state at free_hot_cold_page (in process 'a.out', page c165cc40)
flags:0x20000000 mapping:f75e1d00 mapped:0 count:0
Backtrace:

It turns out there is a bug in hugetlb_prefault(): with 3 level page table,
huge_pte_alloc() might return a pmd that points to a PTE page. It happens
if the virtual address for hugetlb mmap is recycled from previously used
normal page mmap. free_pgtables() might not scrub the pmd entry on munmap
and hugetlb_prefault skips on any pmd presence regardless what type it is.
Patch to fix the bug.

[PATCH] RLIM: enforce rlimits on queued signals
Add a user_struct pointer to the sigqueue structure. Charge sigqueue
allocation and destruction to the user_struct rather than a global pool.
This
per user rlimit accounting obsoletes the global queued_signals accouting.
The patch as charges the sigqueue struct allocation to the queue that it's
pending on (the receiver of the signal). So the owner of the queue is
charged
for whoever writes to it (much like quota for a 777 file).
The patch started out charging the task which allocated the sigqueue struct.
In most cases, these are always the same user (permission for sending a
signal), so those cases are moot. In the cases where it isn't the same user,
it's a privileged user sending a signal to another user.
It seems wrong to charge the allocation to the privleged user, when the other
user could block receipt as long as it feels. The flipside is, someone else
can fill your queue (expectation is that someone else is privileged). I
think
it's right the way it is. The change to revert is very small.

[PATCH] pcnet32: recover after rx hang.
This patch fixes a receive hang that occasionally occurs after a Tx
FIFO underrun. The receive dma remains in a hung state sometimes. The
transmit operations continue to occur, but no receive activity.
This was reproduced on several ppc64 systems and the fix has been verified
there. The patch has been tested as well on an ia32 system, which did
not experience the hang because it did not have fifo underruns, which is
a preqrequisite for the hang. The memory barriers decreased the frequency
of occurrence. The final change to reset the chip instead of just stopping
it eliminated the last hangs.
Please also apply against 2.4.7 (with offset of -1), tested ia32.

Fix PHY transceiver detection code to fall back to known PHY and not to the

With this patch the driver should choose the correct transceiver even when
some ghosts are detected by checking for the type of the tranceiver it is

[PATCH] FAT: don't use "utf8" charset and NLS_DEFAULT
Recently, some distributors have set "utf8" to NLS_DEFAULT, therefore,
FAT uses the "iocharset=utf8" as default. But, since "iocharset=utf8"
doesn't provide the function (lower <-> upper conversion) which FAT
needs, so FAT can't provide suitable behavior.
This patch does:
- doesn't recognize "utf8" as "iocharset"
- doesn't use NLS_DEFAULT as default "iocharset"
- instead of NLS_DEFAULT, adds FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE and
FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET
NOTE: the following looks like buggy, so it's not recommended
"codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,utf8"
however, some utf8 file name can handle. (in this case, it uses the
table of iso8859-1 for lower <-> upper conversion)

[PATCH] Permit inode & dentry hash tables to be allocated > MAX_ORDER size
Here's a patch to allocate memory for big system hash tables with the
bootmem allocator rather than with main page allocator.
It is needed for three reasons:
(1) So that the size can be bigger than MAX_ORDER. IBM have done some
testing on their big PPC64 systems (64GB of RAM) with linux-2.4 and found
that they get better performance if the sizes of the inode cache hash,
dentry cache hash, buffer head hash and page cache hash are increased
beyond MAX_ORDER (order 11).
Now the main allocator can't allocate anything larger than MAX_ORDER,
but
the bootmem allocator can.
In 2.6 it appears that only the inode and dentry hashes remain of those
four, but there are other hash tables that could use this service.
(2) Changing MAX_ORDER appears to have a number of effects beyond just
limiting the maximum size that can be allocated in one go.
(3) Should someone want a hash table in which each bucket isn't a power of
two in size, memory will be wasted as the chunk of memory allocated will
be a power of two in size (to hold a power of two number of buckets).
On the other hand, using the bootmem allocator means the allocation
will only take up sufficient pages to hold it, rather than the next power
of two up.
Admittedly, this point doesn't apply to the dentry and inode hashes,
but it might to another hash table that might want to use this service.
I've coelesced the meat of the inode and dentry allocation routines into
one such routine in mm/page_alloc.c that the the respective initialisation
functions now call before mem_init() is called.
This routine gets it's approximation of memory size by counting up the
ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_DMA pages (and ZONE_HIGHMEM if requested) in all the
nodes passed to the main allocator by paging_init() (or wherever the arch
does it). It does not use max_low_pfn as that doesn't seem to be available
on all archs, and it doesn't use num_physpages since that includes highmem
pages not available to the kernel for allocating data structures upon -
which may not be appropriate when calculating hash table size.
On the off chance that the size of each hash bucket may not be exactly a
power of two, the routine will only allocate as many pages as is necessary
to ensure that the number of buckets is exactly a power of two, rather than
allocating the smallest power-of-two sized chunk of memory that will hold
the same array of buckets.
The maximum size of any single hash table is given by
MAX_SYS_HASH_TABLE_ORDER, as is now defined in linux/mmzone.h.

[PATCH] O_NOATIME support
This patch adds support for the O_NOATIME open flag (GNU extension):
int O_NOATIME Macro
If this bit is set, read will not update the access time of the file.
See File Times. This is used by programs that do backups, so that
backing a file up does not count as reading it. Only the owner of the
file or the superuser may use this bit.
It is useful if you want to do something with the file atime (for instance,
moving files that have not been accessed in a while to somewhere else, or
something like Debian's popularity-contest) but you also want to read all
files periodically (for instance, tripwire or debsums).
Currently, the program that reads all files periodically has to use utimes,
which can race with the atime update:
A B
open
fstat
read
open
read
close
close
utimes
And the file still has the old atime, instead of the new one from when B
did the read from it. This problem does not happen if A uses O_NOATIME
instead of utimes to preserve the atime.
This patch adds the O_NOATIME constant for all architectures, but it would
also be possible to add it one architecture at a time by defining it to 0
when not defined in asm-*.

the existing ov511 has much of this code built-in.
This was previously submitted to Linux-USB-Devel, and I have fixed the

[PATCH] iommu max segment size
This patch is from James, I've changed it slightly only.
The problem is that some IOMMU implementations have a maximum limit to the
size of the number of contiguously mappable pages (admittedly, this limit
is mostly in the resource management algorithms rather than the IOMMUs
themselves).
This patch adds this concept to the bio layer via the parameter
BIO_VMERGE_MAX_SIZE
which architectures can define in asm/io.h (if undefined, we assume it to
be infinite, which is current behaviour).
While adding this, I noticed several places where bio was making incorrect
assumptions about virtual mergeability (none of which was a bug: bio was
overestimating rather than underestimating).
- The worst offender was bio_add_page(), which seemed never to check for
virtual mergeability
- I also fixed blk_hw_contig_segments() not to check the QUEUE_CLUSTER
flag, and not to check the phys segment boundary.
In order to track the hw segment size across bios, I had to introduce two
extra bio parameters: bi_hw_front_size and bi_hw_back_size which store the
sizes of the front and back hw contiguous segments (and which will be equal
if there's only one hw segment). When the bio is merged into a request,
these fields are updated with the total hw contig size so they can always
be used to assess if the merger would violate the BIO_VMERGE_MAX_SIZE
parameter.

[PATCH] v4l: msp3400 cleanup.
This patch has some cleanups for the msp3400 module: Balance is used directly
now instead of maintaining the state as left/right volume and calculate the
balance from that. The msp3400 did that only for historical reasons and it
isn't needed any more ...

[PATCH] v4l: tuner + tda9887 updates
This is a big update for the tuner and tda9887 modules which are used for TV
card tuning.
The tda9887 module is basically completely rewritten and understands all the
config bits now instead of having just some fixed config presets. Some of
these config bits can be changed by insmod options now.
The other big change is that both modules allow to use the V4L2 API for
inter-module communication (i.e. when bttv/saa7134/... pass through the
tuning ioctls to the modules). That allows to specify the TV norm more
precisely (not just PAL but PAL-I, PAL-BG, ...), which is needed in some
cases
to make TV audio work correctly. Using the old v4l1 API is still possible so
this shouldn't break any users of these two modules.

[PATCH] fix possible stack corruption during reiserfs_file_write
With preallocation turned on, reiserfs_allocate_blocks_for_region wasn't
sending a large enough array to hold all the blocks it was asking the block
allocator to find. This can result in stack corruption.
The fix is to kmalloc an array to hold the blocks, making sure to allocate
something large enough.
There was also a recent optimization to force the allocator to find a free
region large enough to hold the entire preallocation size. This was
sometimes causing more blocks to be allocated then had been requested,
which would also overflow the array. Something more elegant is required
here, until then just disable the optimization.

with the patch that went in previously to use interleaving policy at boot

[PATCH] kbuild: add deb-pkg target
To prepare kbuild for more kernel packaging formats move all packaging
support
to scripts/package.
In top-level Makefile introduce generic support for all package formats using
target names *-pkg. Included the old rpm target for backward compatibility.
A new variable KBUILD_IMAGE is used to specify what kernel image will be part
of the final package, and is to be set by the arch specific makefile.
KBUILD_IMAGE may be overridden from command line or environment.
KBUILD_IMAGE
will see wider usage later, mainly when installing kernel images.
Introducing KBUILD_IMAGE allowed arch specific details to be deleted from the
mkspec and builddeb scripts.
While in the process added the deb packet format. Script is From: Wichert
Akkerman <wichert@wiggy.net>
To create a RPM packet use 'make rpm-pkg'.
To create a deb packet use 'make deb-pkg'.

<g.liakhovetski@gmx.de>
[PATCH] tmscsim: host_lock use in LLD
While reviewing tmscsim, I noticed something, I didn't quite like /
understand. The driver takes the host_lock (with irqsave) at the entry to
the ISR, and releases it at the exit. And inside the ISR there are
potentially long busy-waits... Like
int ctr = 6000000; /* only try for about a second */
while( --ctr && !((dstate = DC390_read8 (DMA_Status)) &
DMA_XFER_DONE) && pSRB->SGToBeXferLen );
The attached patch is attempting to fix those places. Not sure if this is
a proper fix though. In my understanding, after looking through the code,
the host_lock is used to protect host-specific data and host-registers.
The ->queuecommand is already called with it help, so, one just,
basically, have to protect other contexts - interrupt, timer,... So, looks
mostly right.

[PATCH] [4/18] qla2xxx: ISR RISC paused fixes
Problem reported/corrected by Michael Reed [mdr@sgi.com]:
We have a 2312 that puts the 8.00.00b12-k qla2xxx driver
into an infinite loop with a solid interrupt, 0x8008,
hcsr = 0x7430, risc status register 0x40008110,
immediately after enabling parity on the board.
It looks as though the early out test in
qla_isr.c:qla2x00_intr_handler() against stat is broken.
HSR_RISC_PAUSED is set. Also, there's a stale mailbox
completion flagged (stat&0xff) which will short circuit
the default case in the switch if it got that far.

[PATCH] [7/18] qla2xxx: Tape command handling fixes
Fix several tape handling issue:
1) When the firmware receives the LOGO from the device, any
active exchanges will be returned with a completion status
of 0x29 -- this will cause the port to be marked as lost and
request made to the DPC routine to begin a relogin attempt.
The problem is, since we've never actually logged out of the
device and cannot do so in interrupt context, we must be
sure to perform the logout before the qla2x00_fabric_login()
in the RELOGIN_NEEDED code.
2) Sets the Get Port Database options to ZERO when issuing
the call to qla2x00_get_port_database(). This consolidates
actuall login handling in the place it should be, in the
previous qla2x00_fabric_login() call rather than depending
on any 'hidden' behaviour of the firmware. If a device did
a LOGO after the login, then any subsequent exachanges will
be returned with an 0x29 completion status and the
RELOGIN_NEEDED code will handle the login.
3) Finally, if the master and slave state do not indicate a
logged-in state from the Get Port Database call, then one
cannot depend on the information returned from the firmware
-- the firmware typically wipes out the PCB information for
a given loopID when logged out. So, return immediately with
a failed status.

[libata sata_sil] Re-fix mod15write bug
Certain early SATA drives have problems with write requests whose
length satisfy the equation "sectors % 15 == 1", on the SiI 3112.
Other drives, and other SiI controllers, are not affected.
The fix for this problem is to avoid such requests, in one of three
ways, for the affect drive+controller combos:
1) Limit all writes to 15 sectors
2) Use block layer features to avoid creating requests whose
length satisfies the above equation.
3) When a request satisfies the above equation, split the request
into two writes, neither of which satisfies the equation.
I chose fix #1, the most simple to implement. After discussion with
Silicon Image and others regarding the impact of this fix, I have
decided to remain with fix #1, and will not be implementing a
"better fix". This means that the affected SATA drives will see
decreased performance, but set of affected drives is small and will
never grow larger.
Further, the complexity of implementing solution #2 or
solution #3 is rather large.
When implementing lba48 'large request' support, I unintentionally
broke the fix for these affected drives. Kudos to Ricky Beam for
noticing this.
This change restores the fix, by adding a flag ATA_DFLAG_LOCK_SECTORS
to indicate that the max_sectors value set by the low-level driver
should never be changed.

This works around this problem by preferring the RAM image on mobility
chipsets. This is definitely not the best workaround, we need some arch
support for linking the RAM image to the PCI ID (preferrably by having
the arch snapshot it during boot, isolating us completely from the
details of where this image is in memory). I'll see how we can get such
an improvement later.

[PATCH] Handle altivec assist exception properly
This is the PPC64 counterpart of the PPC32 Altivec assist exception
handler that went in recently.
On PPC64 machines with Altivec (i.e. machines that use the PPC970 chip,
such as the G5 powermac), the altivec floating-point instructions can
operate in two modes: one where denormalized inputs or outputs are
truncated to zero, and one where they aren't. In the latter mode the
processor can take an exception when it encounters denormalized
floating-point inputs or outputs rather than dealing with them in
hardware.
This patch adds code to deal properly with the exception, by emulating
the instruction that caused the exception. Previously the kernel just
switched the altivec unit into the truncate-to-zero mode, which works
but is a bit gross. Fortunately there are only a limited set of altivec
instructions which can generate the assist exception, so we don't have
to emulate the whole altivec instruction set.
Note that Altivec is Motorola's name for the PowerPC vector/SIMD
instructions; IBM calls the same thing VMX, and currently only IBM makes
64-bit PowerPC CPU chips. Nevertheless, I have used the term Altivec in
the PPC64 code for consistency with the PPC32 code.

[PATCH] USB: Add logical connect-change notices to the hub driver
This patch implements the missing functionality necessary to get device
resets working fully. It adds a bit-array of ports with logical
connect-changes pending to the hub structure, so that the hub driver can
recognize that these ports should be treated as though they had
disconnected and re-connected. This is how we will handle devices that
"morph" (i.e., change their descriptors) following a reset, as might
happen with a firmware upload.
There is also a lot of additional kerneldoc and a few small changes to
some log messages. An important restriction is that usb_reset_device()
will refuse to work if the device is suspended. Trying to reset a
suspended device leads to several problems, not least of which is that the
device's parent hub might be suspended as well.
With this patch the device reset code is pretty much complete. However it
won't always work correctly until the device locking is straightened out.
That's coming up next.

Since we set the buffer dirty earlier on, if the page was previously dirty,
pdflush or memory pressure might trigger a writepage call, which will race
with jbd's set_buffer_locked.

[PATCH] rcu lock update: Add per-cpu batch counter
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
Below is the one of my patches from my rcu lock update. Jack Steiner tested
the first one on a 512p and it resolved the rcu cache line trashing. All
were
tested on osdl with STP.
Step one for reducing cacheline trashing within rcupdate.c:
The current code uses the rcu_cpu_mask bitmap both for keeping track of the
cpus that haven't gone through a quiescent state and for checking if a cpu
should look for quiescent states. The bitmap is frequently changed and the
check is done by polling - together this causes cache line trashing.
If it's cheaper to access a (mostly) read-only cacheline than a cacheline
that
is frequently dirtied, then it's possible to reduce the trashing by splitting
the rcu_cpu_mask bitmap into two cachelines:
The patch adds a generation counter and moves it into a separate cacheline.
This allows to removes all accesses to rcu_cpumask (in the read-write
cacheline) from rcu_pending and at least 50% of the accesses from
rcu_check_quiescent_state. rcu_pending and all but one call per cpu to
rcu_check_quiescent_state access the read-only cacheline. Probably not
enough
for 512p, but it's a start, just for 128 byte more memory use, without
slowing
down rcu grace periods. Obviously the read-only cacheline is not really
read-only: it's written once per grace period to indicate that a new grace
period is running.
Tests on an 8-way Pentium III with reaim showed some improvement:
oprofile hits:
Reference: http://khack.osdl.org/stp/293075/
Hits %
23741 0.0994 rcu_pending
19057 0.0798 rcu_check_quiescent_state

Patched: http://khack.osdl.org/stp/293076/
8291 0.0579 rcu_pending
5475 0.0382 rcu_check_quiescent_state
3604 0.0252 rcu_check_callbacks
The total runtime differs between both runs, thus the % number must
be compared: Around 50% faster. I've uninlined rcu_pending for the
test.
Tested with reaim and kernbench.
Description:
- per-cpu quiescbatch and qs_pending fields introduced: quiescbatch contains
the number of the last quiescent period that the cpu has seen and
qs_pending
is set if the cpu has not yet reported the quiescent state for the current
period. With these two fields a cpu can test if it should report a
quiescent state without having to look at the frequently written
rcu_cpu_mask bitmap.
- curbatch split into two fields: rcu_ctrlblk.batch.completed and
rcu_ctrlblk.batch.cur. This makes it possible to figure out if a grace
period is running (completed != cur) without accessing the rcu_cpu_mask
bitmap.
- rcu_ctrlblk.maxbatch removed and replaced with a true/false next_pending
flag: next_pending=1 means that another grace period should be started
immediately after the end of the current period. Previously, this was
achieved by maxbatch: curbatch==maxbatch means don't start, curbatch!=
maxbatch means start. A flag improves the readability: The only possible
values for maxbatch were curbatch and curbatch+1.
- rcu_ctrlblk split into two cachelines for better performance.
- common code from rcu_offline_cpu and rcu_check_quiescent_state merged into
cpu_quiet.
- rcu_offline_cpu: replace spin_lock_irq with spin_lock_bh, there are no
accesses from irq context (and there are accesses to the spinlock with
enabled interrupts from tasklet context).
- rcu_restart_cpu introduced, s390 should call it after changing nohz:
Theoretically the global batch counter could wrap around and end up at
RCU_quiescbatch(cpu). Then the cpu would not look for a quiescent state
and
rcu would lock up.

[PATCH] rcu lock update: Use a sequence lock for starting batches
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
Step two for reducing cacheline trashing within rcupdate.c:
rcu_process_callbacks always acquires rcu_ctrlblk.state.mutex and calls
rcu_start_batch, even if the batch is already running or already scheduled to
run.
This can be avoided with a sequence lock: A sequence lock allows to read the
current batch number and next_pending atomically. If next_pending is already
set, then there is no need to acquire the global mutex.
This means that for each grace period, there will be
- one write access to the rcu_ctrlblk.batch cacheline
- lots of read accesses to rcu_ctrlblk.batch (3-10*cpus_online()). Behavior
similar to the jiffies cacheline, shouldn't be a problem.
- cpus_online()+1 write accesses to rcu_ctrlblk.state, all of them starting
with spin_lock(&rcu_ctrlblk.state.mutex).
For large enough cpus_online() this will be a problem, but all except two
of the spin_lock calls only protect the rcu_cpu_mask bitmap, thus a
hierarchical bitmap would allow to split the write accesses to multiple
cachelines.
Tested on an 8-way with reaim. Unfortunately it probably won't help with
Jack
Steiner's 'ls' test since in this test only one cpu generates rcu entries.

[PATCH] rcu: avoid passing an argument to the callback function
From: Dipankar Sarma <dipankar@in.ibm.com>
This patch changes the call_rcu() API and avoids passing an argument to the
callback function as suggested by Rusty. Instead, it is assumed that the
user has embedded the rcu head into a structure that is useful in the
callback and the rcu_head pointer is passed to the callback. The callback
can use container_of() to get the pointer to its structure and work with
it. Together with the rcu-singly-link patch, it reduces the rcu_head size
by 50%. Considering that we use these in things like struct dentry and
struct dst_entry, this is good savings in space.
An example :
struct my_struct {
struct rcu_head rcu;
int x;
int y;
};
void my_rcu_callback(struct rcu_head *head)
{
struct my_struct *p = container_of(head, struct my_struct, rcu);
free(p);
}
void my_delete(struct my_struct *p)
{
...
call_rcu(&p->rcu, my_rcu_callback);
...

actual kernel global cpumask_t variables, for all configurations. They are
documented in include/linux/cpumask.h. Some of the UP (NR_CPUS=1) code

[PATCH] vmscan.c scan rate fixes
We've been futzing with the scan rates of the inactive and active lists far
too much, and it's still not right (Anton reports interrupt-off times of over
a second).
- We have this logic in there from 2.4.early (at least) which tries to keep
the inactive list 1/3rd the size of the active list. Or something.
I really cannot see any logic behind this, so toss it out and change the
arithmetic in there so that all pages on both lists have equal scan rates.
- Chunk the work up so we never hold interrupts off for more that 32 pages
worth of scanning.
- Make the per-zone scan-count accumulators unsigned long rather than
atomic_t.
Mainly because atomic_t's could conceivably overflow, but also because
access to these counters is racy-by-design anyway.

[PATCH] vmscan.c: dont reclaim too many pages
The shrink_zone() logic can, under some circumstances, cause far too many

[PATCH] vm: vfs shrinkage tuning
Some people want the dentry and inode caches shrink harder, others want them
shrunk more reluctantly.
The patch adds /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure, which tunes the vfs cache
versus pagecache scanning pressure.
- at vfs_cache_pressure=0 we don't shrink dcache and icache at all.
- at vfs_cache_pressure=100 there is no change in behaviour.
- at vfs_cache_pressure > 100 we reclaim dentries and inodes harder.
The number of megabytes of slab left after a slocate.cron on my 256MB test
box:
vfs_cache_pressure=100000 33480
vfs_cache_pressure=10000 61996
vfs_cache_pressure=1000 104056
vfs_cache_pressure=200 166340
vfs_cache_pressure=100 190200
vfs_cache_pressure=50 206168
Of course, this just left more directory and inode pagecache behind instead
of
vfs cache. Interestingly, on this machine the entire slocate run fits into
pagecache, but not into VFS caches.

[PATCH] tweak the buddy allocator for better I/O merging
From: William Lee Irwin III <wli@holomorphy.com>
Based on Arjan van de Ven's idea, with guidance and testing from James
Bottomley.
The physical ordering of pages delivered to the IO subsystem is strongly
related to the order in which fragments are subdivided from larger blocks
of memory tracked by the page allocator.
Consider a single MAX_ORDER block of memory in isolation acted on by a
sequence of order 0 allocations in an otherwise empty buddy system.
Subdividing the block beginning at the highest addresses will yield all the
pages of the block in reverse, and subdividing the block begining at the
lowest addresses will yield all the pages of the block in physical address
order.
Empirical tests demonstrate this ordering is preserved, and that changing
the order of subdivision so that the lowest page is split off first
resolves the sglist merging difficulties encountered by driver authors at
Adaptec and others in James Bottomley's testing.
James found that before this patch, there were 40 merges out of about 32K
segments. Afterward, there were 24007 merges out of 19513 segments, for a
merge rate of about 55%. Merges of 128 segments, the maximum allowed, were
observed afterward, where beforehand they never occurred. It also improves
dbench on my workstation and works fine there.

[PATCH] hwcache align kmalloc caches
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
Reversing the patches that made all caches hw cacheline aligned had an
unintended side effect on the kmalloc caches: Before they had the
SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN flag set, now it's clear. This breaks one sgi driver -
it expects aligned caches. Additionally I think it's the right thing to
do: It costs virtually nothing (the caches are power-of-two sized) and
could reduce false sharing.
Additionally, the patch adds back the documentation for the
SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN flag.

[PATCH] reduce function inlining in slab.c
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
slab.c contains too many inline functions:
- some functions that are not performance critical were inlined. Waste
of text size.
- The debug code relies on __builtin_return_address(0) to keep track of
the callers. According to rmk, gcc didn't inline some functions as
expected and that resulted in useless debug output. This was probably
caused by the large debug-only inline functions.
The attached patche removes most inline functions:
- the empty on release/huge on debug inline functions were replaced with
empty macros on release/normal functions on debug.
- spurious inline statements were removed.
The code is down to 6 inline functions: three one-liners for struct
abstractions, one for a might_sleep_if test and two for the performance
critical __cache_alloc / __cache_free functions.
Note: If an embedded arch wants to save a few bytes by uninlining
__cache_{free,alloc}: The right way to do that is to fold the functions
into kmem_cache_xy and then replace kmalloc with
kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_find_general_cachep(),).

[PATCH] cirrusfb: major update
From: David Eger <eger@havoc.gtf.org>
This patch brings the cirrusfb driver up to date with 2.6. cirrusfb has
suffered bit rot like you wouldn't believe (last updated... 2.3.x era?).
The driver will now compile again, and you can change to a high resolution
text mode with stty. Known defects: doesn't play nice with X, nor fbset.
C = Cosmetic change
L = Logical change
A = API change
W = register Writing change
(1-CA) fb_info and cirrusfb_info:
- mostly cosmetic, but a lot less confusing, and no more nasty casting.
It used to be stylish to embed struct fb_info_gen (now struct fb_info)
as the first member of struct clgenfb_info (now struct cirrusfb_info),
and then you'd cast to the deisred struct.
Now we pass the size of our data structure to framebuffer_alloc(),
and we make fb_info and cirrusfb_info reference each other with
pointers (as in radeonfb).
In the old code, there two declarations were common:
clgenfb_info *fb_info;
clgenfb_info *info;
since there's also a 'struct fb_info' now, I found this really confusing,
and unified usage as:
cirrusfb_info *cinfo;
fb_info *info;
This accounts for a lot of the search and replace cosmetic upgrade.
(2-A) All of the FB knowledge of FB internals is gone in 2.6
(3-LW) revised maxclock numbers (cirrusfb_board_info_rec.maxclock[5])
In my quest to get fbset to work, I borrowed some maxclock data
from the X.Org tree for various chipsets. It didn't really seem
to help. oh well.
(3-LA) upgraded PCI registration
Instead of doing PCI walking from the driver, we hand off a
pci_device_id table to the PCI subsystem and just get called when
it finds a relevant board.
(4-L) striking lots of __init and __initdata specifiers
I was running into some things not working when I moved the call to
init_vgachip() from the driver registration to set_par(). I thought
perhaps this was due to some things being marked __init accidentally
so I axed said annotations. Turns out it was something else. See 5.
(5-LA) delayed chip initialization, nasty double-set_par() pseudo-bug
Tony says that the fb drivers shouldn't do any chipset initialization
until they get a set_par() call. This way, fb modules can be safely
unloaded if no one gets around to using them, and the vga_con -> fbcon
hand off is smoother, as fbcon can still grab the back-scroll data from
vga_con...
In any case, moving the calls to init_vgachip() and fbgen_do_set_var()
from driver initialization to set_par() revealed that the cirrus
register-writing function needs to be called twice for a mode change to
work. I don't understand why.
(6-LA) split clgen_decode_var() into the bits that check the var and the
bits that actually generate register information (par/regs) to write
Adding modedb hooks here might actually fix fbset, i think...
(7-LW) No longer write the palette in init_vgachip() nor in set_par().
Someone else (fbcon?) seems to be making its own calls to setcolreg()
for us.
(8-LW) setcolreg() -- while removing all of the console cruft, I had
to try to reconstitute the palette code. I think I got this right,
but I could be off -- the penguin boots in the correct colors at least ;-)
(9-L) pan_display() - we don't do wrap, silly. that's only on the amiga.
(10-L) pan+BLT - to make pan play nicely with copyarea()/fillrect()
I had to add a couple of calls to cirrusfb_WaitBLT() to make sure
the engine is idle.
(11-LW) cirrusfb_blank() - I upgraded the switch here to use the new
VESA_* blanking mode constants. I think I translated the right
logic for the right blanking levels.

[PATCH] consolidate in-kernel configuration
From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org>
Being able to recover the configuration from a kernel is very useful and it
would be nice to default this option to Yes. Currently, to have the config
available both from the image (using extract-ikconfig) and via /proc we
keep two copies of the original .config in the kernel. One in plain text
and one gzip compressed. This is not optimal.
This patch removes the plain text version of the configuration and updates
the extraction tools to locate and use the gzip'd version of the file.
This has the added bonus of providing us with the exact same results in
both cases, the original .config; including the comments.

[PATCH] hugetlb.c - fix try_to_free_low()
From: "Chen, Kenneth W" <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com>
Turn on CONFIG_HIGHMEM and CONFIG_HUGETLBFS. Try to config the hugetlb
pool:
[root@quokka]# echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
[root@quokka]# grep HugePage /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 100
HugePages_Free: 100
[root@quokka]# echo 20 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
[root@quokka]# grep HugePage /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 0
HugePages_Free: 0
[root@quokka]# echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
[root@quokka]# grep HugePage /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 100
HugePages_Free: 100
[root@quokka]# echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
[root@quokka]# grep HugePage /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 31
HugePages_Free: 31
The argument "count" passed to try_to_free_low() is the config parameter
for desired hugetlb page pool size. But the implementation took that input
argument as number of pages to free. It also decrement the config
parameter as well. All give random behavior depend on how many hugetlb
pages are in normal/highmem zone.
A two line fix in try_to_free_low() would be:
- if (!--count)
- return 0;
+ if (count >= nr_huge_pages)
+ return count;
But more appropriately, that function shouldn't return anything.

[PATCH] fix x86-64 ptrace access to 32-bit vsyscall page
When I made get_user_pages support looking up a pte for the "gate" area, I
assumed it would be part of the kernel's fixed mappings. On x86-64 running
a 32-bit task, the 32-bit vsyscall DSO page still has no vma but has its
pte allocated in the user mm in the normal fashion. This patch makes it
use the generic page-table lookup calls rather than the shortcuts.
With this, ptrace on x86-64 can access a 32-bit process's vsyscall page.
The behavior on x86 is unchanged.

[PATCH] ppc64: clean up prom.c and related files
Somebody back in the mists of time decided that call_prom and rtas_call
should return longs even though both of those bits of firmware run in
32-bit mode and produce a 32-bit result. To make life more interesting,
the 32-bit result gets zero-extended to 64 bits, which makes checking
for a -1 return value more complicated than it should be.
This patch changes call_prom and rtas_call to return an int, and makes
the corresponding changes to use ints for the variables used to hold
those return values.
While I was doing this I finally got annoyed enough with the strings of
prom_print() and prom_print_hex() calls that we do to write a simple
prom_printf. I deliberately didn't use snprintf because the execution
environment is weird at this point - we aren't running at the address we
are linked at just yet - and I didn't want to inflict that on any code
outside this file. I also did a prom_debug() macro, which eliminated a
few ifdefs.
There are also a bunch of other minor cleanups. This patch makes very
few algorithmic changes but does get rid of a lot of casts. :)

[PATCH] ppc64: Fix booting on LPAR machines with more than 1 CPU
The exception rewrite contains a small bug that prevents bring up of CPUs

The kernel is trying to zero the backlink on the new stack while running
with relocation disabled, which potentially cause it to try to access an
address outside of the region allowed in real mode. This seem to be a
leftover from previous code as we also zero the backlink later after
turning off the MMU.
This patch removes the offending bit.

[PATCH] symlink 1/9: infrastructure and explanation
This patch-kit gets past the limit on nested symlinks, without
incompatible API changes _and_ with killing code duplication in most of
the readlink/follow_link pairs. And no, it's not the old ->getlink()
crap - procfs et.al. are not special-cased there.
Here's how it works:
* ->follow_link() still does what it used to do - replaces
vfsmount/dentry in the nameidata it got from caller. However, it can
also leave a pathname to be resolved by caller.
* we add an array of char * into nameidata; we always work with
nd->saved_names[current->link_count]. nd_set_link() sets it,
nd_get_link() returns it.
* callers of ->follow_link() (all two of them) check if ->follow_link()
had left us something to do. If it had (return value was zero and
nd_get_link() is non-NULL), they do __vfs_follow_link() on that name.
Then they call a new method (->put_link()) that frees whatever has to
be freed, etc.
Note that absolute majority of symlinks have "resolve a pathname" as
part of their ->follow_link(); they can do something else and some don't
do that at all, but having that pathname resolution is very, very
common.
With that change we allow them to shift pathname resolution part to
caller. They don't have to - it's perfectly OK to do all work in
->follow_link(). However, leaving the pathname resolution to caller
will
a) exclude foo_follow_link() stack frame from the picture
b) kill 2 stack frames - all callers are in fs/namei.c
and they can use inlined variant of vfs_follow_link().
That reduction of stack use is enough to push the limit on nested
symlinks from 5 to 8 (actually, even beyond that, but since 8 is common
for other Unices it will do fine).
For those who have "pure" ->follow_link() (i.e. "find a string that
would be symlink contents and say nd_set_link(nd, string)") we also get
a common helper implementing ->readlink() - it just calls
->follow_link() on a dummy nameidata, calls vfs_readlink() on result of
nd_get_link() and does ->put_link(). Using (or not using) it is up to
filesystem; it's a helper that can be used as a ->readlink() for many
filesystems, not a reimplementation of sys_readlink(). However, that's
_MANY_ filesystems - practically all of them.
Note that we don't put any crap like "if this is a normal symlink, do
this; otherwise call ->follow_link() and let it do its magic" into
callers - all symlinks are handled the same way. Which was the main
problem with getlink proposal back then.
That covers almost everything; the only cases left are nfs, ncpfs and
cifs. Those will go later - we are backwards compatible, so it's not a
problem.
First patch: infrastructure - helpers allowing ->follow_link() to leave
a pathname to be traversed by caller + corresponding code in callers.

- Power down ports on driver shutdown. (Craig Nadler)
- Remove some duplicate irq-sharing logic that somehow crept in; check

[PATCH] USB: usb gadget drivers should be stricter about ZLPs
Some USB device controllers make it easy to handle all the various ways
hosts interpret the USB spec about when control-IN transfers need to send
a ZLP ... they can just send one if the host asks, or start the status
stage whenever the host thinks it's time. Other controllers make it hard
to be forgiving in those cases.
This patch updates all the gadget drivers to explicitly set the req->zero
flag to reflect whether the USB spec says a ZLP "must" be sent by the
device. "Forgiving" drivers won't notice the change, but the others need
to see this information passed down from the gadget driver.

[PATCH] USB: gadgetfs AIO support
This patch adds AIO support to gadgetfs, letting user mode programs use
"libaio" to manage USB I/O concurrency with the same API as they may
already be using for disk files. In particular, it's practical to
stream isochronous data to/from userspace using this API, by keeping
an endpoint's I/O queue from emptying.
Each AIO "iocb" in userspace corresponds directly to one "usb_request"
(and one kiocb) in the kernel. Their lifecycles, including cancelation,
overlap completely. That's much of why the patch is so small (surprised
the heck out of me!); that, and using copy_{to,from}_user() rather than
trying fancy dma mapping tricks to attain zerocopy nirvana.
The kernel AIO module forgot to export kick_iocb(), so this adds the
missing declaration ... needed when using gadgetfs as a module.

[PATCH] USB: PWC 9.0.1
Attached you will find patches that will bring the PWC driver in the kernel
up to version 9.0.1 from 8.12 (9.0 wasn't accepted at first). Patches are
against 2.4.26 and 2.6.7. The main difference with 9.0 is that the
video_relase() routine is now hopefully in line with kernel requirements.
I've also added one more ioctl() call, upon request.
I'm also slightly in the dark on the status of the PWC in the 2.6 kernel;
I've seen two patches: the first was a bad one, since it would crash your
kernel when you unplug the cam. I've seen a second patch to reverse the
first one, but I don't know if that went in. Either way, you might get a
conflict in pwc-if.c in and about the pwc_video_release() routine; this
patch was generated against the clean 2.6.7 kernel source. Should you need
or want to fix it manually, this patch should remove the
pwc_video_release() in the 2.6 kernel.

[PATCH] isofs fixes
This fixes two things.
On the one hand we have the old "cruft" mount option, that sometimes was
enabled automatically, for ridiculously large files or CDROMs. But what
was ridiculous ten years ago, no longer is. So, only decide that
something is cruft when the user said so.
On the other hand, sometimes we get negative sizes. That is caused by
assignments inode->i_size = isonum_733(), where the latter was declared
integer. I made it unsigned int, as the standard also does.

[PATCH] Add PCDP console detection support
Add support for the EFI/DIG PCDP console discovery table (see
http://www.dig64.org/specifications/DIG64_HCDPv20_042804.pdf).
This moves the code from drivers/serial/8250_hcdp.[ch] to
drivers/firmware/pcdp.[ch], since it's no longer 8250-specific. It also
obsoletes CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_HCDP, replacing it with CONFIG_EFI_PCDP (which
defaults to Y for ia64).
In a nutshell, HCDP tells us "these UARTs are available for use as a
console," and it's up to the user to explicitly specify the console device.
The kernel can guess in some cases, but not all.
The PCDP (aka HCDP v2) tells us what we really want to know, namely, "this
UART or VGA device is the console device." (It also has provision for
support for new device types.)

[PATCH] __alloc_bootmem_node should not panic when it fails
__alloc_bootmem_node currently panics if it cant satisfy an allocation for
a particular node. Thats rather antisocial, we should at the very least
return NULL and allow the caller to proceed (eg try another node).
A quick look at alloc_bootmem_node usage suggests we should fall back to
allocating from other nodes if it fails (as arch/alpha/kernel/pci_iommu.c
and arch/x86_64/kernel/setup64.c do).
The following patch does that. We fall back to the regular __alloc_bootmem
when __alloc_bootmem_node fails, which means all other nodes are checked
for available memory.

[PATCH] larger IO bitmaps

http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0211.0/0477... but in 2.4
times this was kind of problematic.
Now, with the lazy bitmap allocation and per-CPU TSS, this will really not
drain any resources I think. 8K TSS increase and 8K per process *that does
ioperm()* - I think it is not very bad.
The reasons why I need that, are described in the URL above. Basically this
will allow to use full-screen VESA under dosemu (without LFB though), and
this
may be also helpfull for the XFree project and some other projects:

[PATCH] NX (No eXecute) support for x86
we'd like to announce the availability of the following kernel patch:
http://redhat.com/~mingo/nx-patches/nx-2.6.7-rc2-bk2-AE
which makes use of the 'NX' x86 feature pioneered in AMD64 CPUs and for
which support has also been announced by Intel. (other x86 CPU vendors,
Transmeta and VIA announced support as well. Windows support for NX has
also been announced by Microsoft, for their next service pack.) The NX
feature is also being marketed as 'Enhanced Virus Protection'. This
patch makes sure Linux has full support for this hardware feature on x86
too.
What does this patch do? The pagetable format of current x86 CPUs does
not have an 'execute' bit. This means that even if an application maps a
memory area without PROT_EXEC, the CPU will still allow code to be
executed in this memory. This property is often abused by exploits when
they manage to inject hostile code into this memory, for example via a
buffer overflow.
The NX feature changes this and adds a 'dont execute' bit to the PAE
pagetable format. But since the flag defaults to zero (for compatibility
reasons), all pages are executable by default and the kernel has to be
taught to make use of this bit.
If the NX feature is supported by the CPU then the patched kernel turns
on NX and it will enforce userspace executability constraints such as a
no-exec stack and no-exec mmap and data areas. This means less chance
for stack overflows and buffer-overflows to cause exploits.
furthermore, the patch also implements 'NX protection' for kernelspace
code: only the kernel code and modules are executable - so even
kernel-space overflows are harder (in some cases, impossible) to
exploit. Here is how kernel code that tries to execute off the stack is
stopped:
kernel tried to access NX-protected page - exploit attempt? (uid: 500)
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address f78d0f40
printing eip:
...
The patch is based on a prototype NX patch written for 2.4 by Intel -
special thanks go to Suresh Siddha and Jun Nakajima @ Intel. The
existing NX support in the 64-bit x86_64 kernels has been written by
Andi Kleen and this patch is modeled after his code.
Arjan van de Ven has also provided lots of feedback and he has
integrated the patch into the Fedora Core 2 kernel. Test rpms are
available for download at:
http://redhat.com/~arjanv/2.6/RPMS.kernel/
the kernel-2.6.6-1.411 rpms have the NX patch applied.
here's a quickstart to recompile the vanilla kernel from source with the
NX patch:
http://redhat.com/~mingo/nx-patches/QuickStart-NX.txt
update:
- make the heap non-executable on PT_GNU_STACK binaries.
- make all data mmap()s (and the heap) executable on !PT_GNU_STACK
(legacy) binaries. This has no effect on non-NX CPUs, but should be
much more compatible on NX CPUs. The only effect it has it has on
non-NX CPUs is the extra 'x' bit displayed in /proc/PID/maps.

[PATCH] Fix direct I/O into hugetlb page
Hit a kernel oops on 2.6.7 kernel when doing direct I/O to hugetlb page.
The destructor of compound page was moved into page->mapping since 2.6.6.
It got interfered with set_page_dirty() for hugetlb page: an O_DIRECT read
into first tail page of the compound page will fool set_page_dirty() to
deference page->mapping->a_ops and then kernel oops. Patch to fix the
oops. We do just like what bio_set_pages_dirty() does.

[PATCH] fix NUMA boundaray between ZONE_NORMAL and HIGHMEM
From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org>
This patch eliminates the false hole which can form between ZONE_NORMAL and
ZONE_HIGHMEM. This is most easily seen when 4g/4g split is enabled, but
it's always broken, and we just happen not to hit it most of the time.
Basically, the patch changes the allocation of the numa remaps regions (the
source of the holes) such that they officially fall within VMALLOC space,
where they belong.
Tested in -mjb for a couple of months, and again against 2.6.7-mm1.

[PATCH] anon_vma list locking bug
Vladimir Saveliev reported anon_vma_unlink list_del BUG (LKML 24 June).
His testing is still in progress, but we believe it comes from a nasty
locking deficiency I introduced in 2.6.7's anon_vma_prepare.
Andrea's original anon_vma_prepare was fine, it needed no anon_vma lock
because it was always linking a freshly allocated structure; but my
find_mergeable enhancement let it adopt a neighbouring anon_vma, which of
course needs locking against a racing linkage from another mm - which the
earlier adjust_vma fix seems to have made more likely.
Does anon_vma->lock nest inside or outside page_table_lock? Inside, but
that's not obvious without a lock ordering list: instead of listing the
order here, update the list in filemap.c; but a separate patch because
that's less urgent and more likely to get wrong or provoke controversy.
(Could do it with anon_vma lock after dropping page_table_lock, but a long
comment explaining why some code is safe suggests it's not.)

ext3_direct_io_get_blocks() is misinterpreting the return value from

going BUG on tremendously large direct-io writes. Fix that up.
Also, I note that the really large direct-io writes can hold a transaction
open for the entire duration, which can be minutes. This violates ext3's
attempt to commit data at regular intervals. Fix that up by looking at the
transaction state: if it's T_LOCKED, shut off the current handle so the

The bug is that at times we haven't completed setting up the smb_ops so we
have a temporary 'null' ops in place until the connection is completely up.
With this setup it's possible to hit ->readdir() whilst the null ops are
still in place, so we put the process to sleep until the connection setup
is complete and then call the real ->readdir().

[PATCH] fix GFP zone modifier interators
For each node there are a defined list of MAX_NR_ZONES zones. These are
selected as a result of the __GFP_DMA and __GFP_HIGHMEM zone modifier flags
being passed to the memory allocator as part of the GFP mask. Each node
has a set of zone lists, node_zonelists, which defines the list and order
of zones to scan for each flag combination. When initialising these lists
we iterate over modifier combinations 0 .. MAX_NR_ZONES. However, this is
only correct when there are at most ZONES_SHIFT flags. If another flag is
introduced zonelists for it would not be initialised.
This patch introduces GFP_ZONETYPES (based on GFP_ZONEMASK) as a bound for
the number of modifier combinations.

[AIO]: kiocb->private is too large for kiocb's on-stack.
sizeof(struct kiocb) is dangerously large for a structure commonly
allocated on-stack. This patch converts the 24*sizeof(long) field,
->private, to a void pointer for use by file_operations entrypoints.
A ->dtor() method is added to the kiocb in order to support the release
of dynamically allocated structures referred to by ->private.
The sole in-tree users of ->private are async network read/write,
which are not, in fact, async, and so need not handle preallocated
->private as they would need to if ->ki_retry were ever used. The sole
truly async operations are direct IO pread()/pwrite() which do not
now use ->ki_retry(). All they would need to do in that case is to
check for ->private already being allocated for async kiocbs.
This rips 88B off the stack on 32-bit in the common case.

For some reason, gcc-2.95.4 dies horridly on those asmlinkage
declarations.
I was unable to work out _why_ those functions have asmlinkage, as there
seem to be no instances of them - nobody calls
pwc_register_decompressor().
What's up with that?

[PATCH] USB: Fix pegasus_set_multicast lockup in drivers/usb/net/pegasus.c
I strongly recommend that this patch be applied.
Without this patch, running tcpdump on an SMP machine with the
pegasus adapter locks up 9 times out of 10. This is what happens:
CPU0 CPU1
pegasus_start_xmit
netif_stop_queue
pegasus_set_multicast
netif_stop_queue
netif_wake_queue
Which crashes if another packet is sent to pegasus_start_xmit before
the first one is finished.
If there are other drivers doing this, please fix them too.
PS I submitted this to Petkan years ago but he probably lost it.

[PATCH] ia64: Don't use -mtune=merced for gcc 3.4
Gcc 3.4 has a new DFA scheduler for ia64. Unfortunately, it is not
well tested for Itanium 1. When I tried to use gcc 3.4 to compile
2.6 kernel configured for Merced, gcc failed in many places:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15598
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15653
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15655

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16142
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16143
Some of them have been fixed. But I am afraid many more remain. I don't
know how many Itanium 1 machines left in production use. If people want
to optimize kernel for Itanium 1, they can stick with the older gccs.
Or they should upgrade their machines. I think the gcc developer's time
should be better spent on somewhere else. I have been using this patch
for a while, kernel seems to work OK.

[PATCH] ia64: fix reloc-out-of-range error on module loading
I'm hitting this problem because the module I want to load was
compiled with -g, so the filesize is absolutely huge. kernel/module.c
does a vmalloc() to inhale the entire file, and then two calls to
module_alloc() (which calls vmalloc() on ia64) to load the 'init' and
'core' sections. The 'init' is small and slips into a gap early in the
vmalloc playspace, while the 'core' area is allocated after the huge
area that was allocated for the inhaled copy of the whole file.
I made a one coding change to Jean-Marc's version, adding a check to
see whether the init/core sections are close enough together for the
PCREL21B to reach (they almost always are).
I've kept the test that there are no jumps from core to init (though
the message that is printed is almost as unhelpful as the one that you
get when you statically link a module into the kernel that has calls
to the discarded .exit section :-)
This patch stalled out before on the question of whether a PLT was
overkill for a section-to-section branch, and whether it would be
better to use relaxation techniques to extend the range. Doing that
might be more elegant in some way, but it needs a whole heap of extra
code (to count how many relaxed branches need to be added and
allocated them as needed). This seems a lot of extra code that is
only ever going to be exercised by maniacs like me with 49MB .ko
files.
I fixed up the comments to be a little more heplful.

[PATCH] binfmt misc fd passing via ELF aux vector
The proposed patch uses the aux-vector to pass the fd of the open misc
binary to the interpreter, instead of using argv[1] for that purpose.
Previous patch - open_nonreadable_binaries, offered the option of
binfmt_misc opening the binary on behalf of the interpreter. In case
binfmt_misc is requested to do that it would pass the file-descriptor of
the open binary to the interpreter as its second argument (argv[1]). This
method of passing the file descriptor was suspected to be problematic,
since it changes the command line that users expect to see when using tools
such as 'ps' and 'top'.
The proposed patch changes the method of passing the fd of the open binary
to the translator. Instead of passing it as an argument, binfmt_misc will
request the ELF loader to pass it as a new element in the aux-vector that
it prepares on the stack for ELF interpreter. With this patch, argv[1]
will hold the full path to the binary regardless of whether it opened it or
not.

[PATCH] sh64 support
This patch adds sh64 support.
This is a bit overdue, as this was on the should-fix list, though we
weren't done debugging and finishing off the port until just recently (I
did a port against 2.5.68 but it wasn't in any shape to be merged).
sh64 is already in 2.4 and has been for quite awhile, so this is mostly
just a forward port of that code to 2.6 with appropriate bug fixes, etc.
along the way. There isn't much in the way of new features that have been
added to the port yet, though I have added rough hugetlb and oprofile
support.
This patch doesn't really touch any common code, with the exception of an
ifdef or two for keyboard support and an ifdef in fb.h to omit sh64 from
the __raw_xxx() wrapping that sh does.
The only other common driver changes were to sh-sci for serial support, but
those bits were already merged with the latest batch of sh-sci updates.
Beyond that, the port is completely isolated.

software RAID across several BIOS disks.
Patch below against 2.6.7 allows the storing of the mbr_signature for the
first 16 BIOS int13h devices, and exports them via

[PATCH] fix page->count discrepancy for zero page
While writing some analysis tools for memory hot-remove, we came across a
single page which had a ->count that always increased, without bound. It
ended up always being the zero page, and it was caused by a leaked
reference in some do_wp_page() code that ends up avoiding PG_reserved
pages.
Basically what happens is that page_cache_release()/put_page() ignore
PG_reserved pages, while page_cache_get()/get_page() go ahead and take the
reference. So, each time there's a COW fault on the zero-page, you get a
leaked page->count increment.
It's pretty rare to have a COW fault on anything that's PG_reserved, in
fact, I can't think of anything else that this applies to other than the
zero page.
In any case, it the bug doesn't cause any real problems, but it is a bit of
an annoyance and is obviously incorrect. We've been running with this
patch for about 3 months now, and haven't run into any problems with it.

[PATCH] pcnet32: acknowledge all interrupts early.

in the pcnet32_interrupt while loop. Without this patch on real hardware
the first transmit operation would clear the 'init' interrupt, but in
VMWare it would rain interrupts. Keith Moore did more testing for me
on VMWare and I did a better job testing on hardware. Petr Vandrovec

[SERIAL] Remove UPF_RESOURCES
The UPF_RESOURCES flag was added to the serial layer to cater for
the idiosyncrasies of the PCMCIA layer, where the PCMCIA core code
handles the claiming of busy resources.
However, the PCMCIA core has progressed, and now does not claim busy
resources - IOW, it now behaves just like any other bus driver,
where resources are allocated non-busy and its up to the drivers to
mark their regions busy using request_region / request_mem_region.
The effect of this is that the UPF_RESOURCES hack in the serial
layer is now redundant, and can now be removed - 8250 devices
should now always use request_region / request_mem_region
unconditionally.

[PATCH] enable SMP Opterons boot an NX-enabled x86 kernel
This fixes a corner-case NX bug: the x86 SMP kernel doesnt boot on SMP
Opterons if NX is enabled [and mem=nopentium is specified], due to
kernel-space NX protection preventing the SMP trampoline from being
executable.
Since the SMP trampoline is a rare case of 'dynamic code' executed by
the kernel (it has to be below 640K so it cannot be part of the kernel
text itself), i've added the necessary infrastructure to enable/disable
executability of specific kernel pages.
We cannot simply disable NX via the MSR because we've got the NX bits in
the kernel pagetables, which are set up before we do the SMP bootup.
The NX bit in the pagetables is undefined if EFER.NXE is 0, so we cannot
count on NX-capable CPUs not faulting when they encounter them.
I've tested the x86 kernel on a non-NX SMP x86 box and on an NX UP box,
on which i've also tested a simulated SMP trampoline, it all works fine.
- add infrastructure to enable/disable executability of kernel pages
- make the SMP trampoline page executable.

[PATCH] ppc64: remove RTAS arguments from PACA
This patch removes the RTAS arguments structure on ppc64 from the PACA.
The args have to be in the RMO, but since we have a global spinlock for
RTAS anyway, there's no reason to have a separate copy of the args per-CPU.
This patch replaces the PACA field with a single instance in the global
rtas structure.
The one exception is for the rtas_stop_self() call, which can't take the
lock, because it never returns. But it has a fixed set of arguments, so we
can use another global instance which is initialized at boot.
This lets us remove rtas.h from paca.h, which substantially reduces overall
#include hairiness (because paca.h is now, as it wants to be, a nice
low-level structure-defining header which relies on very little and can
safely be included almost anywhere). Although it does add some noise to
the patch, because a bunch of places relied on the indirect inclusion of
rtas.h, or even more indirect inclusions (see the hunks applying to eeh.h
and current.h!).

Cleanup the PPC64 PACA structure. It was previously a big mess of

This is essentially a rewrite of include/asm-pp64/paca.h with associated

- Removes unused PACA fields
- Removes uneeded #includes
- Uses gcc attributes instead of explicit padding to get the desired
cacheline layout, also rethinks the layout and comments accordingly.
- Better comments where asm or firmware dependencies apply non-obvious
layout constraints.
- Splits up the pointless STAB structure, letting us move its elements
independently.
- Uses offsetof instead of hardcoded offset in spinlocks.
- Eradicates xStudlyCaps identifiers
- Replaces PACA guard page with an explicitly defined emergency stack
(removing more than NR_CPUS pages from the initialized data segment).

[PATCH] ppc64: janitor log_rtas_error() call arguments
This patch from Linas Vepstas (rediffed by me) fixes the confusing argument
aliasing of the log_rtas_error() subroutine.
This patch makes no functional changes, it just cleans up some strange
usage.
The rtas_args used to communicate with firmware are always taken from the
paca struct, so as to keep the args at a fixed, low-memory location. But
the log_rtas_error() routine also took an rtas_args pointer, which it
assumed was aliased to the paca struct. This aliasing is both
un-neccessary, and confusing; this patch eliminates this confusion.

[PATCH] ppc64: Janitor rtas_call() return variables
Recently I changed the return value of rtas_call() from an unsigned long to
an int. That patch missed a few places where we declare a variable to
store the result from rtas_call(). This new patch changes those places to
use an int variable instead of a long or unsigned long variable. Linas
Vepstas pointed this out.

[PATCH] ppc32: OCP for MP10x
Attached is the latest version of Adrian Cox's OCP patch for
MPC107/8240/8245. This unifies some openpic setup code, and ensures that
the OCP devices are only added to the bus on chip variants which have them.
All interested parties seem happy, and this patch is necessary to provide a
unified I2C driver for 85xx and 107/824x.

[PATCH] Bugfix for CLOCK_REALTIME absolute timer
As required by the standard, this patch adds to POSIX ABSOLUTE timers the
functionality of adjusting the timer when the clock is set so that it still
expires at the specified time (provided that time has not passed, in which
case the timer expires immeadiatly).
The standard is, IMNSOHO, a bit vague on just how repeating timers are to
be handled so I made some choices:
1) If an absolute timer is to expire every N intervals, we assume that
the expiries should happen at those specified times after clock setting.
I.e. we adjust the repeat timer as well as the initial timer. (The
other option would be to treat the repeating timers as relative and not
to adjust them.)
2) If a clock set moves the the clock prior to the initial expiry time
AND that time has already passed and been signaled, the current repeat
timer is adjusted, i.e. we DO NOT go back to the initial time and
repeat that. (The other option is to treat this case as a new request
with the initial timer parameters (which by this time we have lost).)
3) If time is advanced such that it appears that several expiries have
been missed, the overrun count will reflect the misses. (The other
option is to not reflect this in the overrun.) At the same time, nothing
is done to acknowledge, to the user, that we are repeating expiries when
the clock is retarded.

[PATCH] sparse: define max kernel symbol length and clean up errors in

kernel/kallsyms.c:143:22: warning: bad constant expression
Now the cause of sparse warnings is that it does not handle runtime array
dimensioning (which I take it is a sparse problem), but in this particular
case it _might_ make sense to change the runtime allocation to compile
time, as the upper size of the array is known, because the code in
kernel/kallsyms.c clearly uses 127 (or 128) as "magic constant" for kernel
symbol (array) length, and in the other hand in include/linux/module.h
there is: #define MODULE_NAME_LEN (64 - sizeof(unsigned long))
The only concern is that the array become quite big (the original comment
of it being "pretty small" no longer applies ...). One way to help that
would be to use buffer[] also in place of namebuf[], but that would be
little tricky as the format string should be before the symbol name ...

as late as possible when there is KD_TEXT<->KD_GRAPHICS switch. The

Not sure if this has repercussions with the other drivers, but this patch
fixed the X nv driver hanging when switching to the console. (I believe the
crash is actually caused by an early set_par() -- while in fbcon_blank.
Removing the set_par in fbcon_blank fixed the hang but caused cursor sprite

Included is a patch for linux to add a PCI vendor/device ID for the
Radisys ENP-2611 board. The ENP-2611 is a 64bit/66MHz PCI board which
hosts an Intel IXP2400 network processor, has three GigE interfaces,
runs linux and generally kicks ass.

[PATCH] fat/inode.c
Two years ago, OGAWA Hirofumi removed some ugly code and
added a few simple tests to the FAT filesystem code,
intended to avoid recognizing non-FAT as FAT (for people who
fail to specify rootfstype=, forcing the kernel to guess).
That worked fairly well, until this year.
I have now seen a thread in Czech and a report from Holland that
involved the "FAT: bogus sectors-per-track value" error message.
The patch below removes this test again. The advantage is that
some real-life FAT filesystems can be mounted again.
The disadvantage that more non-FAT fss will be accepted as FAT.

user to report it.
- add support for vlan packets: The NvRegOffloadConfig register contains
the maximum packet size, it was set to 1518 which caused vlan to fail.
- fix bit flags for mii access: the wrong bit was polled and the mii
write implementation was just broken.
- Do not stop the rx/tx engines around mii accesses.
- reset and reinit the phy during probe.

[PATCH] fbcon: optimization for accel_putcs()
I did some simple benchmarking (time cat linux-2.6.7-mm5/MAINTAINERS)
between 2.4 and 2.6 and I am not satisfied with what I see (It's claimed
that fbdev-2.6 is faster than 2.4). The reason for the claim:
2.4 putcs - draw small amounts of data a lot of times
2.6 putcs - draw larger amounts of data a fewer times
The way characters are drawn in 2.6 is optimal for accelerated drivers but
should also give a speed boost for drivers that rely on software drawing.
However the penaly incurred when preparing a large bitmap from a number of
small bitmaps is currently very high. This is because of the following
reasons:
1 fb_move_buf_{aligned|unaligned} uses pixmap->{out|in}buf. This is very
expensive since outbuf and inbuf methods process only a byte or 2 of data
at a time.
2 fb_sys_outbuf (the default method for pixmap->outbuf) uses memcpy().
Not a good choice if moving only a few bytes.
3 fb_move_buf_unaligned (used for fonts such as 12x22) also involves a
lot of bit operations + a lot of calls to outbuf/inbuf which
proportionately increases the penaly.
So, I thought of separating fb_move_buf_* to fb_iomove_buf_* and
fb_sysmove_buf_*.
fb_iomove_buf_* - used if drivers specified outbuf and inbuf methods
fb_sysmove_buf_* - used if drivers have no outbuf or inbuf methods
*Most, if not all drivers fall in the second category.
Below is a table that show differences between 2.4, 2.6 and 2.6 +
abovementioned changes. To reduce the effect of panning and
fillrect/copyarea, the scrollmode is forced to redraw.

Summary:
1 2.6 unaccelerated is a bit faster than 2.4 when handling 8x16 fonts,
with a higher speed differential at high color depths.
2 2.4 unaccelerated is a bit faster than 2.6 when handling 12x22 fonts,
with a smaller speed difference at high color depths (2.6 is actually a
bit faster than 2.4 at 32bpp).
3 2.4 rivafb accelerated suffers at high color depths, even becoming
slower than unaccelerated, possibly because of the 'draw few bytes many
times' method.
4 2.6 rivafb accelerated has similar performance at any color depth,
possibly because of 'draw lots of bytes a fewer times' method.
5 With the changes, there is a speed gain of ~1.7 seconds and ~5.7
seconds with 8x16 and 12x22 fonts respectively indepependent of the color
depth or acceleration used. The speed gain is constant but significant.
Below is a patch against 2.6.7-mm5. The effects will be very noticeable
with drivers that uses SCROLL_REDRAW, but one should still see some speed
gain even if SCROLL_YPAN/YWRAP is used.
Separated fb_sys_move_* into fb_iosys_move_* and fb_sysmove_* to reduce
penalty when constructing fb_image->data from character maps. In my
testcase (1024x768 SCROLL_REDRAW), I get a ~1.7 second advantage with 'time
cat MAINTAINERS' using 8x16 fonts and ~5.7 seconds with 12x22 fonts. The
speed gain is independent of acceleration or color depth.

[PATCH] ppc64: EEH fixes for POWER5 machines (2/2)
From: Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com>
This patch fixes the usage of the slot-error-detail log buffer for the
Power5 architecture. The size of the error buffer is variable, and the
correct size to use should have been obtained from firmware. Failure to

[PATCH] ppc64: RTAS error log locking fix
From: Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com>
When an RTAS call returns the "hardware error" code, we need to do another
RTAS call to find out what went wrong. Previously we weren't doing that
inside the lock that serializes RTAS calls, and thus another cpu could get
in and do another RTAS call in the meantime. This patch fixes it. This
patch also includes some minor whitespace fixes.

[PATCH] fix up physnode_map
At the moment, we initialise physnode_map from the various BIOS tables,
which can create problems, as holes inside an node return 1 for pfn_valid,
and yet pfn_to_nid is not correct for them. I'd hacked around this in my
tree by defaulting the mapping to 0, not -1, but that's not the correct fix
... this is.
I consolidated all the code back into 1 place, and use node_start_pfn[] and
node_end_pfn[] to walk over it instead - that means it matches up perfectly
with lmem_map's as we're using the same data. It also cleans up a lot of
the code.

[PCMCIA] check for proper registration with device core

[IPV4]: Calculate default broadcast even when using SIOCSIGNETMASK.
While getting hands-on with netkit (www.netkit.org), a networking
simulation environment based on UML, it struck me that ifconfig wasn't
capable of calculating the proper broadcast address for a subnetted
interface. Some browsing through newsgroups and on the Debian package
site (nettools), showed that this leads to misconfigured interfaces and
a couple of bugreports on ifconfig.
Digging a bit deeper revealed that it actually is an issue with
SIOIFNETMASK. Once you bring up an interface with SIOIFADDR, a classfull
netmask and broadcast address is set (if applicable for the type of
interface), in order to get a properly configured interface. But if you
subnet the network using SIOIFNETMASK no proper broadcast address is
set. So you always have to calculate it yourself, obviously leading to
configuration errors.
This patch takes care of this. First of all it doesn't change
existing functionality, eg. a command like 'ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.240 broadcast 192.168.1.0' still works. But if you
omit the broadcast address, a proper 'all ones' broadcast address for the
subnet is set. 'ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.240' gives
you 'eth0 inet addr:192.168.1.1 Bcast:192.168.1.15 Mask:255.255.255.240'
and this should solve some real life problems.

[PCMCIA] core socket sysfs support, export card type
Patch from Dominik Brodowski
Add a first socket-related sysfs entry; and to keep things ordered,
do so in a new file drivers/pcmcia/socket_sysfs.c. To keep things
easy, all files will be present all the time, even if no card is in
the socket at a specific moment -- however, accessing the file will
result in -ENODEV then, so that
# cat /sys/class/pcmcia_socket/pcmcia_socket1/card_type
will cause an error message like
"cat: card_type: No such device"
which is quite self-explanatory.
The attribute "card_type" will return either "16-bit" or "32-bit",
depending on whether the PCCard is a 16-bit PCMCIA card or a 32-bit
CardBus card. The result "invalid" should not happen, and if it

[IPCOMP]: Exclude IPCOMP header from props.header_len
This is another patch on the way towards a unified XFRM tunnel
encapsulation function.
This patch changes the value of props.header_len for IPCOMP to
exclude the IPCOMP header. The reason is that the IPCOMP header
is added only if the packet is compressible. That is, if the
size of the compressed payload plus the size of the IPCOMP header
is less than that of the original payload.
This means that the IPCOMP encapsulation does not impose any
overhead at all as far as the MTU is concerned. The current
code incorrectly reduces the MTU by the size of the IPCOMP
header.
As a side-effect, this means that we don't have to move the
IP header around when IPCOMP is used.

[PATCH] s390: cpu-idle notifier
This patch introduces a notifier chain for cpu idle. There are two events
CPU_IDLE and CPU_NOT_IDLE that are called just before the cpu goes to sleep
and right after the cpu woke up again. The notifier is used to simplify the
no-hz-timer-in-idle feature and the virtual cpu timers. In addition the
virtual cpu timer functions have been moved to arch/s390/kernel/vtime.c,
which
gives a nice separation between the timer functions related to real time and
the timer functions related to virtual cpu time.

[PATCH] fbcon mode switching fix
Ugly workaround. When switching from KD_GRAPHICS to KD_TEXT, the event is
captured at fbcon_blank() allowing fbcon to reinitialize the hardware.
However, some hardware requires the reinitialization to be done
immediately, others require it to be done later. Others may need it to be
done immediately and later, this is the worst case.

[PATCH] fbcon: refinements for fbcon
1. From Petr Vandrovec <vandrove@vc.cvut.cz>.
Begin quote
yesterday I finally found why 2.6.x has problems with taking
over vgacon. Problem is that take_over_console does:
if (IS_VISIBLE)
save_screen(i);
...
visual_init(i, 0);
...
so code nicely saves screen contents, and calls visual_init,
which calls fbcon's init, which in turn can issue vc_resize. And
this
vc_resize will trigger read from vc->vc_origin. But vc_origin still
points to videomemory, not to the buffer where save_screen() copied
its data.
End quote
So updating vc->vc_origin to point to screenbuf after the previous console
deinitializes allows fbcon to correctly update the screen from the screen
buffer. This change makes the clearing of vram (using fillrect) unnecessary.
2. If FBINFO_MISC_MODESWITCH flag is set in info, do the set_par() in
fbcon_switch() instead of piggy-backing the set_par() on fbcon_resize().
This
preserves the current var, skipping the unnecessary fb_find_mode() step.

[PATCH] fbcon: new scrolling mode: YPAN + REDRAW
Added a new scrolling mode (SCROLL_PAN_REDRAW) to fbcon that should greatly
benefit unaccelerated drivers such as VESA fbdev. An increase of 3-10 times
in scrolling speed can be expected.
Currently, fbcon has 4 different scrolling methods (1-4). Potentially, we
can
have 6. This patch implements SCROLL_PAN_REDRAW (5). SCROLL_WRAP_REDRAW (6)
is still unimplemented.
Scroll Mode Operation YPan YWrap
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1. SCROLL_ACCEL copyarea No No
2. SCROLL_REDRAW imageblit No No
3. SCROLL_PAN copyarea Yes No
4. SCROLL_WRAP copyarea No Yes
5. SCROLL_PAN_REDRAW imageblit Yes No
6. SCROLL_WRAP_REDRAW imageblit No Yes
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Note 1: I've changed the nomenclature to increase clarity:
SCROLL_ACCEL = SCROLL_MOVE
SCROLL_REDRAW = SCROLL_REDRAW
SCROLL_PAN = SCROLL_PAN_MOVE
SCROLL_WRAP = SCROLL_WRAP_MOVE
To demonstrate the effect of each of the scrolling methods on
an unaccelerated PCI/AGP-based driver (vesafb), I used a simple
benchmark (time cat linux/MAINTAINERS - a 50K text file). The
framebuffer is set at:
1024x768-8bpp, 8x16 font, yres_virtual = 2*yres
1. SCROLL_MOVE:
real 5m50.277s
user 0m0.001s
sys 5m50.227s
Almost 6 minutes for a 50K text file. Using soft copyarea on a
PCI-based card is just too slow (because copyarea has to
read from the framebuffer memory).
2. SCROLL_PAN_MOVE
scrollmode: SCROLL_PAN
real 0m8.592s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m8.586s
Using ypan with copyarea dramatically improves the scrolling. However, the
scrolling action is jerky (fast during the panning stages, slows down during
the copyarea stages).
3. SCROLL_REDRAW (this is the default scrolling mode)
real 0m3.189s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m3.170s
Simply eliminating the copyarea, even without ypanning, makes it faster than
SCROLL_PAN_MOvE. Plus, the scrolling action is smoother.
So, if we combine YPanning with imageblit (PAN_REDRAW), we get this:
4. SCROLL_PAN_REDRAW
real 0m0.520s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.518s
That's almost 6x faster than SCROLL_REDRAW. Increasing the amount of video
RAM still increases the speed, but not very dramatically. Higher than 16 MB,
the increase is negligible.
Using an accelerated driver, we see almost the same effect but not as
dramatically:
1. SCROLL_MOVE - accel
real 0m3.112s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m3.112s
2. SCROLL_REDRAW - accel
real 0m2.604s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m2.603s
Redraw is still faster than move, but not much.
3. SCROLL_PAN_MOVE - accel
real 0m0.203s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.202s
4. SCROLL_PAN_REDRAW - accel
real 0m0.326s
user 0m0.002s
sys 0m0.323s
This is one exception. If panning is enabled, move is actually faster than
redraw. As to why, I don't know.
So based on the above, fbcon will choose the scrolling method based on the
following preference:
Ypan/Ywrap > accel imageblit > accel copyarea >
soft imageblit > (soft copyarea)
Note 2: Exception: accel copyarea > accel imageblit if Pan/Wrap is enabled.
Note 3: soft copyarea will be avoided by fbcon as much as possible unless
there is a specific override, ie., FBINFO_READS_FAST flag is set. If this
flag is set, fbcon will prefer copyarea over imageblit, accel or soft.
As a final note, in order for fbcon to use the best scrolling method, the
low-level drivers must provide the correct hinting by setting the
FBINFO_HWACCEL_* flags.
To vesafb users: boot vesafb like this for fastest scrolling action:
video=vesafb:ypan,vram:16

[PATCH] ia64: Fix OSDL BugMe report 2885: realtime process can't preempt low

Rearranged code to make it work. There were two problems:
1. The preempt flag was being tested only if code was leaving for
user space (the logic should be: test for RESCHEDULE if we're
switching to a kernel thread, test everything if switching to a
user thread)
2. The check of the user space flags was being repeated even if the
work had been done.
There is one small change in semantics: when returning from a
preemption, the preemption flag will *not* be rechecked. Otherwise, I
found that it was easy to get into a livelock situation where no

Back out smc91x late collision "performance" hack.

Alan Cox's comments on this is:
"spec says 16 collision retries max _ever_. I bet his 'broken
switch' is a case of half v full duplex" and a recommendation to
remove it.
Also, since the change does not limit the number of times we may
retry to send the packet, I think this code opens a potential DoS

code.

[PATCH] ia64: fix interpolation-bug in fsys_gettimeofday()
The order of reading ar.itc is incorrect with respect to all other
variables in fsys_gettimeofday. All variables involved in time
interpolation need to be protected by the sequence lock xtime_lock for
consistency check. However, the first time that fsys_gettimeofday()
takes a time stamp, it reads the count outside the seq lock leading to
the following possible time leap into the future scenario:
fsys_gettimeofday:
read ar.itc
.... <context switch> ....
read_seqbegin
read all other variables (last_nsec_offset, jiffies, xtime)
do time interpolation - elapsed_cycles become a large negative
number and converting it to nsec overflows and make it a
large positive number
read_seqretry success
updates last_nsec_offset (which is several seconds into the future).
All subsequent gettimeofday() calls will be wrong as well because
monotonic property kicks in. It only self-corrects once that future
time actually arrives.
This patch fixes the problem (and moves one instruction to make some room).

[IPSEC]: Move generic encap code into xfrm4_output
I've finally finished merging the general encapsulation code for IPv4.

The idea is basically to make x->type->output similar in structure to

generic code out.
They have ended up in xfrm4_output.c.
The advantage of this is that we have exactly one copy of the tunnel
encapsulation code. So if we need to change it (e.g., set the TTL
according to the route) then it's easier and less error-prone.
In fact, in doing so I've already noticed that the ECN wasn't being
copied correctly in everything except xfrm4_tunnel.

- remove redundant e2a function. (use viopath.c's instead)
- change to Kconfig to allow building as a module.
- export required symbols from LparData.c
Pass # 2 updates..
- Per Pauls request I've removed the vpurr references, and left

- this should apply clean to latest linus tree. (test-applied against

Pass # 3 updates...
- Correcting my previously incorrect description of the

This is for the cases where we have some number of virtual
processors that are different than the total number of threads
in the system. (i.e. systemcfg->processorcount isnt the desired
value for partition_active_processors)
- moved e2a function into its own file in arch/ppc64/lib.
- changed lparcfg_count_active_processors() to use a while loop
instead of a for loop.
- removed redundant of_node_put in lparcfg_count_active_processors().

[PATCH] intrinsic automount and mountpoint degradation support
Here's a patch that I worked out with Al Viro that adds support for a
filesystem (such as kAFS) to perform automounting intrinsically without the
need for a userspace daemon. It also adds support for such mountpoints to be
degraded at the filesystem's behest until they've been untouched long enough
that they'll be removed.
I've a patch (to follow) that removes some #ifdef's from fs/afs/* thus
allowing it to make use of this facility.
There are five pieces to this:
(1) Any interested filesystem needs to have at least one list to which
expirable mountpoints can be added.
Access to this list is governed by the vfsmount_lock.
(2) When a filesystem wants to create an expirable mount, it calls
do_kern_mount() to get a handle on the filesystem it wants mounting, and
then calls do_add_mount() to mount that filesystem on the designated
mountpoint, supplying the list mentioned in (1) to which the vfsmount
will be added.
In kAFS's case, the mountpoint is a directory with a follow_link()
method
defined (fs/afs/mntpt.c). This uses the struct nameidata supplied as an
argument as a determination of where the new filesystem should be
mounted.
(3) When something using a vfsmount finishes dealing with it, it calls
mntput(). This unmarks the vfsmount for immediate expiry.
There are two criteria for determining if a vfsmount may be expired - it
mustn't be marked as in use for anything other than being a child of
another vfsmount, and it must have an expiry mark against it already.
(4) The filesystem then determines the policy on expiring the mounts created
in (2). When it feels the need to, it passes the list mentioned in (1)
to
mark_mounts_for_expiry() to request everything on the list be expired.
This function examines each mount listed. If the vfsmount meets the
criteria mentioned in (3), then the vfsmount is deleted from the
namespace and disposed of as for unmounting; otherwise the vfsmount is
left untouched apart from now bearing an expiration mark if it didn't
before.
kAFS's expiration policy is simply to invoke this process at regular
intervals for all the mounts on its list.
(5) An expiration facility is also provided to userspace: by calling
umount()
with a MNT_EXPIRE flag, it can make a request to unmount only if the
mountpoint hasn't been used since the last request and isn't in use now.
This allows expiration to be driven by userspace instead of by the
kernel if that is desirable.
This also means that do_umount() has to use a different version of
path_release() to everyone else... it can't call mntput() as that clears
the expiration flag, thus rendering this unachievable; so it's version
of
path_release() calls _mntput(), which doesn't do the clear.
My original idea was to give the kernel more knowledge of automounted
things. This avoids a certain problem with stat() on a mountpoint causing it
to mount (for example, do "ls -l /afs" on a machine with kAFS), but Al wanted
it done this way.
> Why is autofs unsuitable?
Because:
(1) Autofs is flat; AFS requires a tree - mounts on mounts on mounts on
mounts...
(2) AFS holds the data as to what the mountpoints are and where they go, and
these may be cross-links to subtrees beyond your control. It's also not
trivial to extract a list of mountpoints as is required for autofs.
(3) Autofs is not namespace safe.
(4) Ducking back to userspace to get that to do the mount is pretty tricky
if
namespaces are involved.
In fact, autofs may well want to make use of this facility.

[PATCH] kAFS automount support
Here's a patch to allow the kAFS filesystem to use the automount facility
patch presented in a previous email.
It allows me to mount an AFS root volume on /afs and then just walk through
the directory structure causing referenced volumes to be automounted and
autoumounted.
For instance, if I do:
[root@andromeda root]# mount -t afs \#root.afs. /afs
[root@andromeda root]# ls /afs
asd cambridge cambridge.redhat.com grand.central.org
[root@andromeda root]# ls /afs/cambridge
afsdoc
[root@andromeda root]# ls /afs/cambridge/afsdoc/
ChangeLog html LICENSE pdf RELNOTES-1.2.2
And then look in the mountpoint catalogue, I see:
[root@andromeda root]# cat /proc/mounts
...
#root.afs. /afs afs rw 0 0
#root.cell. /afs/cambridge.redhat.com afs rw 0 0
#afsdoc. /afs/cambridge.redhat.com/afsdoc afs rw 0 0
Then after waiting a few minutes:
[root@andromeda root]# cat /proc/mounts
...
#root.afs. /afs afs rw 0 0
Is all that remains.

This comes from the fact that 'align' is size_t and so unsigned. Just to be

[PATCH] writepage fs corruption fix
Fix a data loss bug in mpage_writepages(), triggerable under extreme memory
pressure on ext2, JFS, hfs and hfsplus:
The bug is the marking of the bh clean despite we could still run into the
"confused" path. After that the confused path really becomes confused and it
writes nothing and fs corruption triggers silenty (the reugular writepage
only
writes bh that are marked dirty, it never attempts to submit_bh anything
marked clean). The mpage-writepage code must never mark the bh clean as far
as it wants to still fallback in the regular writepage which depends on the
bh
to be dirty (i.e. the "goto confused" path). This could only triggers with
memory pressure (it also needs buffer_heads_over_limit == 0, and that is
frequent under mm pressure).
Thanks a lot to Chris for his fine debugging that localized the problem in
the
writepage code.

[PATCH] mpage_writepages() i_size reading fix
I believe reading the i_size from memory multiple times can generate fs
corruption. The "offset" and the "end_index" were not coherent. this is
writepages and it runs w/o the i_sem, so the i_size can change from under
us anytime. If a parallel write happens while writepages run, the i_size
could advance from 4095 to 4100. With the current 2.6 code that could
translate in end_index = 0 and offset = 4. That's broken because end_index
and offset could be not coherent. Either end_index=1 and offset =4, or
end_index = 0 and offset = 4095. When they lose coherency the memset can
zeroout actual data. The below patch fixes that (it's at least a
theoretical bug).
I don't really expect this tiny race to fix the bug in practice after the
more serious bugs we covered yesterday didn't fix it (more likely the
compiler will get involved into the equation soon ;).
This is also an optimization for 32bit archs that needs special locking to
read 64bit i_size coherenty.
This patch also arranges for mpage_writepages() to always zero out the file's
final page between i_size and the end of the file's final block. This is a
best-effort correctness thing to deal with errant applications which write
into the mmapped page beyond the underlying file's EOF.

x86: fix stackframe ownership confusion in sys_sigaltstack()
gcc doesn't understand that "asmlinkage" routines have the
argument stack owned by the assembly-language caller, and the
recent sparse cleanup made gcc think it owns enough stack
frame space to make a tailcall by overwriting "struct pt_regs"
that is set up by the low-level system call code.
Hide that problem again.
The real fix would be to tell gcc that the caller owns the
stack frame that it set up, but we don't have any such
interfaces, so for now the best we can do is to hide it.

platforms that care we actually have access_ok() as inlined function.

[PATCH] sparse: read_descriptor_t annotation
We have a fun situation with read_descriptor_t - all its instances end
up passed to some actor; these actors use desc->buf as their private
data; there are 5 of them and they expect resp:
struct lo_read_data *
struct svc_rqst *
struct file *
struct rpc_xprt *
char __user *
IOW, there is no type safety whatsoever; the field is essentially untyped,
we rely on the fact that actor is chosen by the same code that sets ->buf
and expect it to put something of the right type there.
Right now desc->buf is declared as char __user *. Moreover, the last
argument of ->sendfile() (what should be stored in ->buf) is void __user *,
even though it's actually _never_ a userland pointer.
If nothing else, ->sendfile() should take void * instead; that alone removes
a bunch of bogus warnings. I went further and replaced desc->buf with a
union of void * and char __user *.

[PATCH] fix airo oops-on-removal
From: Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com>
airo creates /proc/driver/aironet/<device name> on device activation.
However, the device can be renamed - then on teardown it tries to remove
the wrong directory. The removal of /proc/driver/aironet then runs afoul
of the BUG_ON() in remove_proc_entry.
This fixes it by keeping a copy of the name of the directory it created.
(It doesn't actually solve the problem of the stats directory still being
/proc/driver/aironet/eth0 when you rename the device to, say, 'joe'. But
that patch would be a little less trivial.)

[PATCH] tg3 bug
During receive processing, the tg3 card updates rx_producer (the
hardware position in the receive ring) and the opaque cookie. Due to PCI
rules the stores happen in order. However the cpu may reorder the reads.
In these sort of cases there is usually a data dependency between
reading the index and looking up the data (since we use the index to
load the data). I think all cpus except alpha guarantee the reads
happen in order in this case.
However in this particular case we load hw_idx, compare it to sw_idx and
then use sw_idx to locate the opaque cookie. There is no data dependency
in this case. We need a read memory barrier between the read of
rx_producer and the opaque cookie to enforce ordering.
Thanks to Olof Johansson, Michael Chan and Broadcom for their assistance
in finding this bug.

[PATCH] USB: Add usb_kill_urb()
This patch is a slightly revised version of as277c, updated to match the
current source. The only difference from the older version is that this
makes urb->use_count into an atomic_t, to avoid the overhead of an extra
locking step each time an URB is submitted and given back. The important
features of this patch are:
-EPERM added to Documentation/usb/error-codes.txt.
Failure to use URB_ASYNC_UNLINK with usb_unlink_urb() is
deprecated in the documentation.
New ->reject and ->use_count fields added to struct urb.
The reject field is protected by urb->lock, and locking is
required only in usb_kill_urb() which doesn't have to be fast.
Single wait_queue used for all processes waiting inside
usb_kill_urb(). The wait queue is woken up only when an URB
is given back with ->reject set.
usb_rh_status_dequeue() changed to return int. It looks like
this function should be declared static; it's not used outside
the hcd.c file.
Prototype for unlink_urb() in struct usb_operations is changed
to include a status code argument. This is necessary so that
the different unlink paths can return -ENOENT and -ECONNRESET
as appropriate.
Support for synchronous usb_unlink_urb() has been removed;
such calls are passed to usb_kill_urb().
Kerneldoc for usb_unlink_urb() is updated.
usb_kill_urb() added to urb.c.
hc_simple() host driver is partially updated -- it should
compile but it won't really work right.

[PATCH] USB: fix usbfs mount options ignored bug
Ok here is a patch to make the mount options work. In addition to
implementing the remount function, it removes the parse_options() call
from usb_fill_super and adds a "ignore" flag around the mounting that gets
done in create_special_files. The parse_options call in usb_fill_super is
removed because it is not needed when remount is implemented. The
ignore_mount flag is needed because the simple_pin_fs function calls
remount with no mount options - i.e. it's not a real mount. So the mount
options would be cleared out. The ignore_mount flag causes the remount
function to only act on real mounts.

[PATCH] USB: usb gadget API updates
Gadget API updates, including new features:
- Adds several new optional calls that can be made to the
USB peripheral controller:
* VBUS session reporting, for use mostly by external
transcievers (such as isp1301). Detection of VBUS
power is the first step in enumeration, and usually
corresponds to a device being plugged into a hub.
* "Soft Connect" feature, wherein the D+ pullup is under
gadget driver control. This is a second step during
enumeration, which lets the hub see the new device.
(Based on a patch by Alex Sanks <alex@netchip.com>.)
* Control over VBUS current draw. So for example this is
what a gadget driver uses during SET_CONFIGURATION to
say "it's OK to draw 300 mA from VBUS to recharge".
- Basic interfaces to support device-side USB OTG. Feature
flags and descriptors are in <linux/usb_ch9.h> already.
* Reports whether the device has a Mini-AB port, so
that OTG support (desriptors etc) is required.
* Reports OTG device feature flags for HNP. (The OTG
spec requires user interfaces to report this stuff.)
Say if this is a B-Peripheral or an A-Peripheral.
* Says that usb_gadget_wakeup() is how to access SRP,
and usb_gadget_disconnect() is how to access HNP.
- Minor updates/cleanups to comments (Linux 2.5-->2.6 etc)
Currently there's no support for SRP-only OTG devices.

- Basics of OTG support: providing the OTG descriptor
in each configuration (as needed). No HNP yet.
- Stop issuing partial-packet reads. There's some hardware that
only counts reads in packets, not bytes, so let's not bother.
There are still software checks to catch framing gone wild.
- Fix a small bug that crept in with a memory leak fix: after
RNDIS requests, ep0 responses would use the RNDIS completion
handler even for non-RNDIS requests.

[PATCH] Updates for W99[87]CF and new SN9C10[12] driver
This single patch contains some updates and cleanups for
the W996[87]CF driver and a new experimental V4L2 driver
for SONiX SN9C10[12] PC Camera Controllers connected to various
image sensors. I have not divided the patch in two logical
sub-patches becouse of two independent changes in one common
file, KConfigure.
More informations about the SN9C10[12] can be found below in the
documentation. The driver is marked as "EXPERIMENTAL", meaning
that there are no known bugs, but further testing is necessary
before considering it stable. This the first driver using the new
SBGGR8 video format, which has been recently added to the mainline
kernel, so there are no available user application at the moment:
this is one more reason why it should be in the kernel now.
Changes in W996[87]CF:
- remove w9968cf_externaldef.h now that ovcamchip.h is in the kernel;
- mark user pointers with __user in a cleaner way to avoid sparse
warnings;
- use appropriate exclusive wait macro during open();
- replace info(), err(), warn() with dev_info(), dev_err(), dev_warn(),
pr_debug(), pr_info();
- replace usb_unlink_urb() + wait_for_completion() with usb_kill_urb();
- fix memory offsets for buffers in the chip to be used with generic
image sensors;
- 'vppmod_load', 'debug', 'specific_debug' and 'simcams' module
parameters are now writeable by default;
- fix possible race conditions between disconnect() and open();
- add automatic 'ovcamchip' module loading option with 'ovmod_load'
module parameter;
- get rid of deprecated intermodule communication routines and use the
correct module registration/unregistration approach;
- remove period at the end of kernel messages;
- fix several typos;
- use MODULE_VERSION() macro;
- other small internal cleanups;
- documentation updates.

This patch adds various VID/PIDs to the ftdi_sio driver that I've

* Interbiometrics USB I/O boards VID/PIDs from 2.4 kernel (Rudolf
Gugler).
* Intrepid Control Systems ValueCAN and NeoVI VID/PIDs from Scott
Wolchok.
* Falcom Twist USB GPRS modem VID/PID from Justin Schoeman.
* Suunto Sports instrument PID from Panu Kekalainen.
Also a few minor clean-ups:
* Removed a stray PID macro constant FTDI_GUDEADS_889_PID.
* Copied the Inside Accesso VID/PID into the FT232BM ID table so
that the "combined" table is a proper union of the others (unless I've
missed something else).
* Added a comment that the OCT US101 is also rebadged as a SIIG Inc.

[PATCH] USB: usb host side updates, mostly for suspend
This adds some of the infrastructure needed to support some more
USB capabilities:
- CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND, so Linux can put individual devices
into the USB "suspend" state. They can (sometimes) use
"remote wakeup" to resume the host; or they can each be
resumed by the host.
+ New usbcore device selective suspend/resume APIs
* Define them, as stubs for now
* Call them on the paths sysfs uses (renamed functions)
+ HCD support
* Define root hub suspend calls; delegate them to HCDs.
* OHCI and EHCI can suspend/resume root hubs that way.
* Not called yet, until suspend/resume calls exist
- CONFIG_USB_OTG, which depends on the selective suspend APIs
to allow devices to switch roles (host to peripheral, etc).
This patch just adds a few key flags in usb_bus, needed by
usbcore (during enumeration) and by HCD and OTG controllers
on OTG-capable boards.
- Related bugfix: power budgeting is supposed to place a
100mA per port (non-OTG) for bus-powered devices.
This patch changes no behavior; later patches will do that,
and they'll be smaller because of this.

This patch marks w9968cf_valid_depth as inline, although it's used

WindRiver SBC8560: Set all internal IRQs level-triggered.
<dwmw2@shinybook.infradead.org>
Fix UART detection on WindRiver SBC8560
The UART is detected as a ST16650V2 but its FIFO doesn't behave nicely.
Disable autoprobe and hard-code it to be a ST16650 instead.
<dwmw2@shinybook.infradead.org>
Fix UART initialisation on WindRiver SBC8560.
The UART tristates its IRQ output when the OUT2 bit in the MCR isn't
set. For reasons not known to civilised man, the hardware engineers
stopped it from floating by pulling it _high_ instead of low, so if
anybody requests that IRQ before OUT2 is turned on, we die in an IRQ
storm. The serial8250 driver does precisely that thing, with precisely
that effect.
ALPHA_KLUDGE_MCR was designed to fix exactly this kind of problem, so we
use it here as intended. Ideally ALPHA_KLUDGE_MCR would go away and be
replaced with something like UPF_FORCE_OUT2 and UPF_FORCE_OUT1 flags,
but now is not the time to get me started on a cleanup of everything
about serial8250 that offends me.

[PATCH] fix cdrom mt rainier probe
Writing to RAM capable media was broken by the moving of write flag
detection from probe to drive open time. The media would stay

This fixes the code to do the right thing - the detection stays at open
time (which it must, since it depends on the media), and we fail with
-EROFS if the media can't be written.

This patch fixes a hard-to-trigger condition, where the inode is on the

And this causes a livelock in balance_dirty_pages after a while.

For some reason I booted a NUMA and SLAB_DEBUG i386 kernel on a non

The reason was that highmem_start_start page ended up zero and
that triggered the highmem check in change_page_attr when the
slab debug code would unmap a kernel mapping.
Fix is straightforward: if there is no highmem set highmem_start_page
to max_low_pfn+1

[PATCH] pmac_zilog: serial minors taken failure path fix
I've tracked down the core issue giving me the oops wrt pmac_zilog.
When you have two serial drivers, (e.g. 8250 and PMAC_ZILOG) they both say
"I want to reserve X ports starting with major TTY_MAJOR and minor 64".
By the time pmac_zilog gets there, the ports it requests are already
reserved. Unfortunately, init_pmz() doesn't check for pmz_register()
failure, and so it merrily goes on to register the half-initialized
pmac_zilog driver with the power management subsystem.
This path provides a proper failure path.
Also:
Restore ppc configs now that I know people use AT Keyboards on CHRP and PReP
machines, and the zilog driver is no longer Oops'ing.

[PATCH] NX: clean up legacy binary support
This cleans up legacy x86 binary support by introducing a new
personality bit: READ_IMPLIES_EXEC, and implements Linus' suggestion to
add the PROT_EXEC bit on the two affected syscall entry places,
sys_mprotect() and sys_mmap(). If this bit is set then PROT_READ will
also add the PROT_EXEC bit - as expected by legacy x86 binaries. The
ELF loader will automatically set this bit when it encounters a legacy
binary.
This approach avoids the problems the previous ->def_flags solution
caused. In particular this patch fixes the PROT_NONE problem in a
cleaner way (http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/7/12/227), and it should fix the
ia64 PROT_EXEC problem reported by David Mosberger. Also,
mprotect(PROT_READ) done by legacy binaries will do the right thing as
well.
the details:
- the personality bit is added to the personality mask upon exec(),
within the ELF loader, but is not cleared (see the exceptions below).
This means that if an environment that already has the bit exec()s a
new-style binary it will still get the old behavior.
- one exception are setuid/setgid binaries: these will reset the
bit - thus local attackers cannot manually set the bit and circumvent
NX protection. Legacy setuid binaries will still get the bit through
the ELF loader. This gives us maximum flexibility in shaping
compatibility environments.
- selinux also clears the bit when switching SIDs via exec().
- x86 is the only arch making use of READ_IMPLIES_EXEC currently. Other
arches will have the pre-NX-patch protection setup they always had.
I have booted an old distro [RH 7.2] and two new PT_GNU_STACK distros
[SuSE 9.2 and FC2] on an NX-capable CPU - they work just fine and all
the mapping details are right. I've checked the PROT_NONE test-utility
as well and it works as expected. I have checked various setuid
scenarios as well involving legacy and new-style binaries.
an improved setarch utility can be used to set the personality bit
manually:
http://redhat.com/~mingo/nx-patches/setarch-1.4-3.tar.gz
the new '-X' flag does it, e.g.:
./setarch -X linux /bin/cat /proc/self/maps
will trigger the old protection layout even on a new distro.

[PATCH] NX: allow architectures to select legacy mode dynamically
On some platforms, you'll want to support READ_IMPLIES_EXEC differently
depending on personality (e.g, native binary vs. x86 binary).
This supports that (and makes the code more readable while at it) by
replacing the old architecture-specific fixed LEGACY_BINARIES macro
define with a architecture-specific "elf_read_implies_exec_binary()"
helper function.
For now, x86 is the only user, and sets the "read implies exec" bit for
legacy apps. ia64 and x86-64 are likely to want to do their own thing.
Acked by Ingo.

[AH6]: Disallow mutable bits after AH header.
As we discussed before, mutable headers should not be allowed after

It is further clarified in section 3.1.1 of
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipsec-rfc2...
This allows us to simplify the code in ah6.c. As a result, this also
fixes the following issues:
* Dependence on skb->h in ah6_output().
* Bogus clearing of auth_data of 2nd AH header in
ipv6_clear_mutable_options().

[PATCH] Fix ppc64 max_pfn issue
I noticed excessive time in the pid hash functions on a ppc64 box. It
turns out the pid hash is being sized way too small, eg on a 16GB box:
PID hash table entries: 16 (order 4: 256 bytes)
The reason is that the pid hash init function uses max_pfn before it was
setup on ppc64. With the following patch things are good again:

predicted correctly and corrupts the link prediction stack. We should
use bctrl instead.

When building a kernel using the O= syntax to save output

This Makefile allow one to use make in the output directory without
the hassle of going back to the kernel source tree.
The O= option is added by this Makefile stub.
Please note that the Makefile silently overwrite an old one, so changes
will be lost if modified.
If there is a need to tweak a Makefile in the output directory it is

to use the filename 'makefile', which GNU Make will try first.

kbuild: Introduce source symlink in /lib/modules/.../
Traditionally when building a kernel the source and the
output files are mixed.
When building a kernel using the O= syntax to save output
files in a separate directory a way is needed to locate
the kernel source.
The implemented solution is a new symlink 'source' being
added to /lib/modules/.../
used to locate source for an installed kernel.
The original symlink build points to the directory
containing the output files.
Please note that when the kernel is build with source and
output files mixed the two symlinks 'build' and 'source'
will point to the same directory, thus no changes
compared to before.
Two options was considered:
a) Adding a new symlink pointing to the output files "object"
=> All external modules have to specify O= to build
=> External modules grepping in .config or .h files
in include/asm needs to be updated
=> External modules that do grep in source code and
ordinary header files just works
b) Let the build symlink point to the output files and introduce a new
symlink "source" pointing to the kernel source
=> External module can be build without specifying O=
=> External modules grepping in .config or .h files
in include/asm just works
=> External modules that do grep in source code and
ordinary header files needs to be updated
Based on the above option b) is considered the least painfull alternative.
So to sum up:
- If a distro does not use separate output dir => no change
- If a distro uses separate output dir =>
- Trivial external module just builds
- Non-trivial (build-wise) external modules are probarly broken
Without this patch
- If a distro does not use separate output dir => no change
- If a distro uses separate output dir =>
- Trivial external modules had to specify O= to build,
and the directory being pointed at was not obvious
- grep in .config or include files in asm/ required
knowledge where to locate output files
Preferred syntax for building external modules are the following:
make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`
[Substituting 'M=...' with 'SUBDIRS=... modules' give same effect].
When the kernel is built using separate output directory the above
invocation of make will invoke the generated Makefile located in the output
directory - that again will invoke the Makefile located in the kernel
source tree root.

[AH6]: Get things working again.
Re: [AH6] Disable mutable bits after AH header
Unfortunately I broke ah6_input() in that patch. Thanks to Miyazawa-san
for notifying me of the problem.
In that patch I removed the nh_offset parameter to
ipv6_clear_mutable_options.
That broke ah6_input() because it relies on that variable to set the nexthdr.
The following patch fixes this by moving this work out to the caller
xfrm6_rcv() where the information is already available. It also removes
an unnecessary call to ip6_find_1stfragopt() in xfrm6_rcv() since nhoffp
already points to the nexthdr preceding the current header.

[sound/oss i810] add MMIO DSP support
Enclosed is a patch for the i810_audio OSS driver to support using
memory-mapped I/O for those chipsets that support it.
o Added a family of macros -- I810_IOREADx() and I810_IOWRITEx() -- that
key off the existing card->use_mmio flag to select between using readx/writex
or inx/outx for I/O operations.
o Converted existing inx/outx invocations to use
I810_IOREADx/I810_IOWRITEx instead.
o Changed GET_CIV(), GET_LVI, and CIV_TO_LVI() not only to use
I810_IOREADx/I810_IOWRITEx but also to take "card" (i.e. struct i810_card)
paramter.
o Removed check for "Pure MMIO interfaces" in i810_probe() -- replaced w/
(relocated) check for no I/O resources available.
<linville@redhat.com>
[sound/oss i810] misc small changes
Attached is a second patch to account for (most of) Herbert Xu's
comments.
I have left-out the part about changing state->card to a
local variable where it is used a lot. Unfortunately, that usage is
somewhat pervasive and I would prefer to make those changes in a separate
patch -- after I have had a chance to do some testing.
If you'd prefer one patch to account for the original plus these
changes, let me know and I'll be happy to provide it.

[PATCH] install_page vs. vmtruncate
BK is still missing one piece for Oleg's install_page/vmtruncate races.
Oleg didn't explicitly ACK this, but I think he did implicitly: Oleg?
The previous patch to install_page, returning an error if !page_mapping
once page_table_lock is held, is not enough to guard against vmtruncate.
When unmap_mapping_range already did this vma, but truncate_inode_pages has
not yet done this page, page->mapping will still be set, but we must now
refrain from inserting the page into the page table.
Could check truncate_count, but that would need caller to read and pass it
down. Instead, recheck page->index against i_size, which is updated before
unmap_mapping_range. Better check page->mapping too: not really necessary,
but it's accidental that index is left when mapping is reset.
Also, callers are expecting -EINVAL for beyond end of file, not -EAGAIN.

[PATCH] swapoff mmap_sem deadlock
Updating the mm lock ordering documentation drew attention to the fact that
we were wrong to blithely add down_read(&mm->mmap_sem) to swapoff's
unuse_process, while it holds swapcache page lock: not very likely, but it
could deadlock against, say, mlock faulting a page back in from swap.
But it looks like these days it's safe to drop and reacquire page lock if
down_read_trylock fails: the page lock is held to stop try_to_unmap
unmapping the page's ptes as fast as try_to_unuse is mapping them back in;
but the recent fix for get_user_pages works to prevent that too.

[PATCH] page align emergency stack
The PPC64 ABI requires the stack to be 128 byte aligned (and that can
become important if AltiVec registers are saved there). In the kernel,
that's usually dealt with by the fact that the stack has a page
more-or-less to itself. However, the emergency stacks (used in SMP bringup
and when we detect a bad stack pointer) aren't necessarily page aligned, or
anything aligned for that matter. This patch applies the necessary
alignement constraint to them.

interfaces.
* arch/ppc64/kernel/Makefile

* arch/ppc64/kernel/hvconsole.c
Exported hvc_put_chars() and hvc_get_chars() for use by HVCS.
* arch/ppc64/kernel/hvcserver.c
Body of hvcserver module which accompanies the hvcs module and provides
ppc64 architecture firmware calls for use by HVCS. This file provides
function bodies for partner info gathering and vterm connection and
termination interfaces.
* drivers/char/Kconfig
Added CONFIG_HVCS option for both built-in version and module version
of hvcs.
* drivers/char/Makefile
Added build directive for hvcs.o when CONFIG_HVCS is configured.
* drivers/char/hvcs.c
This is the device driver for the IBM Hypervisor Virtual Console
Server, "hvcs". The IBM hvcs provides a tty driver interface to allow
Linux user space applications access to the system consoles of logically
partitioned operating systems, e.g. Linux, running on the same
partitioned Power5 ppc64 system. Physical hardware consoles per
partition are not practical on this hardware so system consoles are
accessed by this driver using inter-partition firmware interfaces to
virtual terminal devices.
* Documentation/powerpc/hvcs.txt
HVCS installation and usage documentation.
Thanks everyone for all the help with this driver [Andrew Morton, Paul

the problem by introducing pgd_offset_gate(). On architectures on which
the gate area lives in the user's address-space, this should be aliased to
pgd_offset() and on architectures on which the gate area lives in the

ease debugging of the fb code when all else fails.

[PATCH] ipmi_msghandler module load failure fix
On a 2.6.7 kernel, when I try to modprobe ipmi_msghandler, it fails to load
with following message:
FATAL: Error inserting ipmi_msghandler
(/lib/modules/2.6.7/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.ko): Invalid
module format
And there is an error message in dmesg:
ipmi_msghandler: init symbol 0xa000000200058080 used in module code at
a000000200031b32
What I have been able to determine is that ipmi_msghandler.c defines
ipmi_init_msghandler() as the module_init() routine and then it also calls
ipmi_init_msghandler() diretcly from couple of other places. This does not
seem to be okay in 2.6.7 kernel. I was able to fix this by defining a new
module_init routine which in turn calls ipmi_init_msghandler(). I also
removed __init from ipmi_init_msghandler() since it gets called from
ipmi_open() on an open of the ipmi device file. So I would think we want
to keep ipmi_init_msghandler() around even after initialization.

[PATCH] fix readahead breakage for sequential after random reads
Current readahead logic is broken when a random read pattern is followed by
a long sequential read. The cause is that on a window miss ra->next_size
is set to ra->average, but ra->average is only updated at the end of a
sequence, so window size will remain 1 until the end of the sequential
read.
This patch fixes this by taking the current sequence length into account
(code taken from towards end of page_cache_readahead()), and also setting
ra->average to a decent value in handle_ra_miss() when sequential access is
detected.

A bunch of small laptop mode updates:
* Mention the laptop_mode and block_dump sysctls in the relevant docs,
referring to the laptop-mode.txt. Improve description of what the
laptop_mode knob means (i.e. seconds between last I/O and automatic
sync).
* Document the most relevant config file options.
* Change the installation instructions in the laptop mode doc to describe
the ACPI-bound version first, because this is the easiest. Explain
the non-ACPI version afterwards. Added a reference to my "packaged
version" of the scripts.
* Move the setting of hdparm and cpu frequency out of the ACPI script
and into the core laptop mode script. Add config option DO_HD to
enable hdparm. Add config setting HD to set device to do hdparm on.
Rename Dax's CPU_MANAGE to DO_CPU, with 0/1 instead of yes/no, to
improve consistency.
* Fix a problem where the root filesystem wouln't be remounted when
/etc/mtab listed its type as "unknown". Deduce the type of "unknown"
filesystems from /etc/fstab.
This depends on the patch that adds config files, which was submitted

[PATCH] writepages drops bh on not uptodate page
I think I understood why some ext2 fs corruption still happens even after
the last i_size fix.
what happened I believe is that the writepages layer got a not a fully
uptodate page (in turn with bh mapped on top of it), and then right before
unlocking the page and entering the writeback mode, it freed all the bh.
Without bh a not uptodate page will trigger a full readpage from disk, that
overwrites the pagecache before the multi-bio gets submitted, generating fs
corruption.
I believe the below patch should fix it (untested) against kernel CVS.
The testcases developed by Kurt showed the pagecache being overwritten with
on-disk data at block offsets, and Chris as well was wondering about races
between wait_on_page_writeback and readpage. the below fix just explains
everything we've seen since not-fully-uptodate pages must have always bh on
them and the below patch enforces just that invariant, and it should fix
our pagecache-overwritten-by-disk-data problem.

kconfig implementation, this forces MD5 to be a boolean as well.
The usual workaround in these cases is to move the selection up

[PATCH] con_font_op split
Preparations for cleanups: con_font_op() is turned into a switch calling
con_font_{get,set,default,copy} depending on the operation required;
method ->con_font_op() also split, with NULL resulting in -ENOSYS on
operation in question.
Code that used to be in con_font_op() got slightly cleaned up after move
into new helpers (we are beginning to untangle the mess; there will be
more cleanups in the next patches).
Methods are currently using exact same arguments as old ->con_font_op().
That will change in subsequent patches, method by method (right now there's
a hell of a scary field reuse between them, making impossible to do any
static checks and practically begging for bugs).

We also do a sanity check (font width > 0) in the caller instead of

The problem is that after a successful connection between the Windows
Bluetooth stack and the Linux Bluez stack, no packets from the device
ever reach the PC running Windows XP Service Pack 2. That is, a ping
from the PC never receives a response, and a ping from BlueZ never
reaches the PC. Linux packet statistics show that the PC packets are
received, but all return traffic seems to be routed over the loopback
interface.
Immediately after creating the BNEP connection with BlueZ, the Windows
Bluetooth stack sends a BNEP_FILTER_NET_TYPE_SET_MSG with an effective
length of zero. BlueZ interprets this message to mean that no filter
ranges should be allowed. The code zeros the first entry in the filter
list, which is than interpreted as meaning that no ranges of acceptable
packets are available. This interpretation is wrong and leads to all
packets being rejected by BNEP.
The Bluetooth BNEP specification clearly states the following:
The length (in octets) of this message is 4+4*N, where N is the number
of disjoint ranges of Networking protocol types that form the complete
set. Note that N=0 (empty set) denotes a reset to default filters (if
any) supported by the remote device.

[PATCH] ppc32: fix compilation with binutils-2.15
Currently, ppc32 will not always compile with binutils-2.15. The issue
is that binutils has become even more strict about which opcodes can be
used with which CPU flags. The problem is that we have a number of
cases where we compile with altivec instructions (with runtime checks to
make sure we can actually run them) in code that's not altivec specific.
The fix for this is to always pass in -maltivec on CONFIG_6xx. To do
this cleanly, we split our AFLAGS definition up into
aflags-$(CONFIG_FOO).

[PATCH] slab memory shrinking balancing fix
The logic in shrink_slab tries to balance the proportion of slab which it
scans against the proportion of pagecache which the caller scanned. Problem
is that with a large number of highmem LRU pages and a small number of lowmem
LRU pages, the amount of pagecache scanning appears to be very small, so we
don't push slab hard enough.
The patch changes things so that for, say, a GFP_KERNEL allocation attempt we
only consider ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_DMA when calculating "what proportion of
the LRU did the caller just scan".
This will have the effect of shrinking slab harder in response to GFP_KERNEL
allocations than for GFP_HIGHMEM allocations.

[PATCH] PATCH: Fix HPT366 crash and support HPT372N
On a board containing the HPT372N IDE controller the 2.6.x series kernels
will
misbehave. If the HPT372N is set up with the newer PCI identifier it is
ignored. If it is set up with the HPT372 identifier then the kernel crashes
on boot.
This patch is a forward port of my 2.4 driver fixes that have been in 2.4
for a year but somehow escaped 2.6. Ronny Buchmann caught a couple
of merge details I missed and those are fixed in this diff too.
As well as adding 372N support this also fixes the unknown revision case
to avoid crashes should any future 37x variants with weird class_rev's appear

[IPSEC]: Fix SPI generation by netlink_get_spi()
The issue is that two successive calls to netlink_get_spi is returning
the same SA. Since netlink_get_spi is meant to be a creation operation
this is incorrect.
The netlink_get_spi operation is modelled off the PFKEY SADB_GETSPI
command which is specified in RFC 2367. The purpose of SADB_GETSPI
is to create a new larval SA that can then be filled in by SADB_UPDATE.
Its semantics does not allow two SADB_GETSPI calls to return the same
SA, even if there is no SADB_UPDATE call in between.
The reason the second netlink_get_spi is returning the same SA is
because in find_acq(), the code is looking at all larval states as
opposed to only larval states with an SPI of zero.
Since the only other caller of find_acq() -- xfrm_state_add() intentionally
ignores all return values with a non-zero SPI, it is safe to not look at
SAs with non-zero SPIs at all in find_acq().
The following patch does exactly that.
In fact, the find_acq() call in xfrm_state_add() is a remnant from
the days when we had xfrm_state_replace() instead of xfrm_state_add()
and xfrm_state_update(). It can now be safely removed.
I'll post a separate patch for that.

[IPSEC]: Remove redundant check in xfrm_state_add()
This is the patch referred to in the netlink_get_spi thread.
I was actually wrong about the reason for this patch though. Firstly
it's the SPI check that is redundant and not the find_acq() call.
And it's redundant because of the find_acq() patch, not because
of the fact that this is in xfrm_state_add().
Now that find_acq() only returns SAs with SPIs, we don't need to
check this in xfrm_state_add() anymore.
We do still need the call though to clean up leftover larval states.
Another side-effect of the change is that we can move the existence
check above find_acq() since find_acq() will never return any SAs
matching the SPI we're trying to add (It doesn't need to because if
an SA with a matching SPI existed, it would've been returned by
state_lookup() already).

[IPSEC]: xfrm_alloc_spi always succeeds on non-trivial range
xfrm_alloc_spi will always succeed if minspi < maxspi, even if
minspi + 1 == maxspi. If the range is already occupied this
will obviously lead to breakage.
Of course this is very unlikely to occur in reality due to the
size of the range. Although with IPCOMP it might actually happen
on a very large server.

[PF_KEY]: spirange should be in host byte order.
I'm looking through the xfrm_alloc_spi stuff and noticed that the
netlink alloc_spi function takes the range in host order while the
PFKEY alloc_spi function takes them in network order.
First I thought that I stuffed up since I was the one who changed
the code in the netlink interface to take them in host order :)
But reading RFC 2367 seems to indicate otherwise. It says that all
fields are host order unless specified otherwise. And the spirange
fields are not specified to be network order at all.
Looking at the existing PFKEY users:
User Space
----------
Openswan - Doesn't use PFKEY for this.
Racoon - Puts zeros in there so it doesn't care. However its test-pfkey
program stores things in host order.
ISAKMPD - Stores things in host order.
So the conclusion is that we can and should change our PFKEY
implementation to use host order for these fields.
This patch does exactly that.

[PATCH] ppc64: improve SLB reload
Rewrite/cleanup of the SLB management code. This removes nearly all the
SLB related code from arch/ppc64/kernel/stab.c and puts a rewritten version
in arch/ppc64/mm, where it better belongs. The main SLB miss path is in
assembler and the other routines have been cleaned up and streamlined.
Notable changes:
- Ugly bitfields no longer used for generating SLB entries.
- slb_allocate() (the main SLB miss routine) is now in assembler, and all
the data it uses is stored in the PACA.
- The mm context is now copied into the PACA at context switch time, to
avoid looking up the thread struct on SLB miss.
- An SLB miss will now never (directly) result in a call to
do_page_fault. If we get a miss on a totally bogus address the handler
will now put in an SLB referencing VSID 0. This will never have any
pages, so we'll get the (fatal) page fault shortly afterwards. This
simplifies the SLB entry and exit paths.
- The round-robin pointer in the PACA now references the last-used
instead of next-to-use SLB slot, which simplifies the asm for updating it
slightly.
- Unify do_slb_bolted with the general SLB miss path. There is now one
SLB miss handler, in assembler, and called with only the low-level
exception prolog (EXCEPTION_PROLOG_[PI]SERIES rather than
EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON) and minimal extra save/restore logic.
- Streamlines the exception entry/exit path of the SLB miss handler to
shave a few cycles off. The most significant change is that the RI bit
is left off throughout the whole handler, which avoids an extra mtmsrd to
turn it back off on the exit path.

[PATCH] Off-by-one error for SIGXCPU / RLIMIT_CPU checking
There is a lonstanding off-by-one error that results from an incorrect
comparison when checking whether a process has consumed CPU time in
excess of its RLIMIT_CPU limits.
This means, for example, that if we use setrlimit() to set the soft CPU
limit (rlim_cur) to 5 seconds and the hard limit (rlim_max) to 10 seconds,
then the process only receives a SIGXCPU signal after consuming 6 seconds
of CPU time, and, if it continues consuming CPU after handling that
signal, only receives SIGKILL after consuming 11 seconds of CPU time.
The fix is trivial.

[PATCH] bio_copy_user() cleanups and fixes
blk_rq_map_user() is a bit of a hack currently, since it drops back to
kmalloc() if bio_map_user() fails. This is unfortunate since it means we
do no real segment or size checking (and the request segment counts contain
crap, already found one bug in a scsi lld). It's also pretty nasty for >
PAGE_SIZE requests, as we attempt to do higher order page allocations.
Even worse still, ide-cd will drop back to PIO for non-sg/bio requests.
All in all, very suboptimal.
This patch adds bio_copy_user() which simply sets up a bio with kernel
pages and copies data as needed for reads and writes. It also changes
bio_map_user() to return an error pointer like bio_copy_user(), so we can
return something sane to the user instead of always -ENOMEM.

[PATCH] ppc32: Fix problem with spurrious edge interrupts on old
On old powermacs, it's possible that we get a stale edge interrupt when
doing request_irq(), that typically happens with the DBDMA controller
interrupts when the device was used by the firmware for booting.
I just tracked down a nasty memory corruption problem where that was
causing the bmac driver to try to process packets before the driver
internal data structures were properly initialized.
While I agree that the driver should (and will) be made more robust to
such things, Paulus and I decided that it makes little sense to keep
track of an "old" edge interrupt that happens before a driver does
request_irq. (On those powermacs, those are only the DBDMA interrupts
anyway, and none of the DBDMA users will care).
This patch implements a "startup" handler for the old Apple PIC that
will "ack" pending edge interrupts before unmasking, thus preventing
those stale interrupts to be delivered.
It also "fixes" the ppc32 irq core to call the startup() callback when
available instead of just calling enable().

[PATCH] md multipathing fixes
I tried to get multipathing failover running and failed. It seems to be
that there are two bugs in multipath.c :
- If a path/request fails mp_bh->path doesn't get updated to the new
path. Thus multipath_end_request will access a NULL pointer if a
redirected request returns.
- After fixing this I experienced several other errors. First of all in
bio->bi_flags the BIO_UPTODATE flag is not set when redirecting a
request.
Causing the md driver to think that every redirected request failed
when it returns. Since that alone didn't fix the problems, I simply
copied the master_bio again and it looks like everything seems to work.

[PATCH] jbd: journal_head unmapping race fix
Fix a race identified by Chris Mason <mason@suse.com>
journal_unmap_buffer -> __dispose_buffers has the j_list_lock and the
jbd_lock_bh_state held.
journal_get_write_access calls journal_put_journal_head, which takes
jbd_lock_bh_journal_head(bh) and doesn't seem to have any other locks held.
Since journal_unmap_buffers trusts the buffer_jbd bit to see if we need to
call __dispose_buffer, and nobody seems to test buffer_jbd after taking
jbd_lock_bh_journal_head. The kernel dereferences a null jh pointer in
__journal_remove_journal_head.
The patch fixes this by using journal_grab_journal_head() in
journal_unmap_buffer(). It ensures that we either grab and pin the
journal_head if the bh has one, or we bale out if the bh doesn't have a
journal_head.

[PATCH] sparc32: gcc-3.3 macro parenthesization fix for memcpy.S
From: Art Haas <ahaas@airmail.net>
The 1.3->1.4 changes to the arch/sparc/lib/copy_user.S file added parenthesis
to a number of macros within that file. The BK changlog associated with this
change indicate the change was to make the file work with gcc-3.3.
When looking at the changes made, I see that similar macros exist in memcpy.S
as well, so would a patch adding parens to that file be worthwhile? Also,
just what was the problem with gcc-3.3 that was resolved by adding the
parenthesis? Macro mis-expansion I'm guessing.

[PATCH] via-rhine: Really call rhine_power_init()
Without this patch, mainline via-rhine cannot wake the chip if some other
driver puts it to D3. The problem has hit quite a few people already.
This is a fix for the heisenbug with via-rhine refusing to work
sometimes. Patch "[9/9] Restructure reset code" contained a change made
necessary by patch [8/9]. Mainline merged [8/9] for 2.6.8 and is still
missing the fix, while -mm got it with [9/9].

[PATCH] 4kstacks: fix compile with gcc 2.95
Investigation of why the build is failing due to bogus detection of
undefined symbols: We're getting this warning:
arch/i386/kernel/irq.c
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:3565: Warning: setting incorrect section type for
.bss.page_aligned
Which comes from this code in the 4k stacks code:
static char softirq_stack[NR_CPUS * THREAD_SIZE]
__attribute__((__aligned__(THREAD_SIZE), __section__(".bss.page_aligned")));
static char hardirq_stack[NR_CPUS * THREAD_SIZE]
__attribute__((__aligned__(THREAD_SIZE), __section__(".bss.page_aligned")));
Removing the __section__() fixes it, as does moving to gcc 3.2 or 3.3,
but gcc 2.95 and 3.0 still exhibit the problem. It seems the 4k stack
developers like newer compilers than I do :)
The gcc 2.95 section declaration looks like this:
.section .bss.page_aligned,"aw",@progbits
while the 3.1 section looks like this:
.section .bss.page_aligned,"aw",@nobits
It's definitely a bug that's been fixed:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2002-10/msg00507.html
I've been told that I can fix it with a carefully crafted assembly file and
maybe a change to the linker script, but all that it buys us is a little
space in the uncompressed kernel image. Plus, the warning will still be
there at compile-time.
I say, put them back in plain old BSS.

[PATCH] prism54 Fix memory leaks
* Change the "version" OID to what it should be.
* Fix memory leaks - mgt_get_request always returns
* allocated memory for non-int OIDS (with an exception -

* returns, then it must free memory.
* However, it is possible to return from mgt_get_request
* early (!priv->mib). In this case, weird things can happen
* in isl_ioctl. Quick fix, at least to force an oops, is
* to set the union value to NULL. The real fix is to
* recode all mgt_get_request calls in isl_ioctl.

ie :
HWaddr 02:00:07:E3:E9:F5
instead of :
HWaddr 00:02:E3:07:F5:E9
(the correct MAC address vendor code for Netgear/LiteOn is 00:02:E3)

Be a bit more anal about allowing SCSI commands to be sent.
Normal users shouldn't have access to the raw device anyway
unless they are in the trusted "disk" group, but let's require
RAWIO capabilities. That's what the original SCSI interfaces
did anyhoo.
We probably _should_ just require write access, but that will
need more of a code change to pass down the file descriptor.
