d739437 Dave Jones 17 May 2007, 22:02:21 UTC [IPV4]: Correct rp_filter help text. As mentioned in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5015 The helptext implies that this is on by default. This may be true on some distros (Fedora/RHEL have it enabled in /etc/sysctl.conf), but the kernel defaults to it off. Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

4ce61d1 Satyam Sharma 17 May 2007, 06:50:16 UTC [BLUETOOTH]: Fix locking in hci_sock_dev_event(). We presently use lock_sock() to acquire a lock on a socket in hci_sock_dev_event(), but this goes BUG because lock_sock() can sleep and we're already holding a read-write spinlock at that point. So, we must use the non-sleeping BH version, bh_lock_sock(). However, hci_sock_dev_event() is called from user context and hence using simply bh_lock_sock() will deadlock against a concurrent softirq that tries to acquire a lock on the same socket. Hence, disabling BH's before acquiring the socket lock and enable them afterwards, is the proper solution to fix socket locking in hci_sock_dev_event().

b5b82df David Woodhouse 17 May 2007, 06:27:39 UTC NS16550A: Restore HS settings in EXCR2 on resume After a suspend/resume cycle, the UART may have been reset into low-speed mode -- either because it's actually been reset, or because the firmware pokes at the old-style divisor registers. If we detected it as a NS16550A SuperIO chip in the first place and set baud_base to 921600, then we should do so again in the resume path. This patch adds that code to serial8250_resume_port(), and also makes serial8250_resume() actually call serial8250_resume_port() for each port instead of just calling uart_resume_port() directly. And thus fixes serial port operation after suspend/resume. It also fixes a bogus comment where we write the EXCR2 register with a comment saying /* EXCR1 */ Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Acked-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 17 May 2007, 12:25:49 UTC

ea12589 Christoph Lameter 17 May 2007, 05:11:21 UTC Fix page allocation flags in grow_dev_page() grow_dev_page() simply passes GFP_NOFS to find_or_create_page. This means the allocation of radix tree nodes is done with GFP_NOFS and the allocation of a new page is done using GFP_NOFS. The mapping has a flags field that contains the necessary allocation flags for the page cache allocation. These need to be consulted in order to get DMA and HIGHMEM allocations etc right. And yes a blockdev could be allowing Highmem allocations if its a ramdisk.

0aa817f Christoph Lameter 17 May 2007, 05:11:01 UTC Slab allocators: define common size limitations Currently we have a maze of configuration variables that determine the maximum slab size. Worst of all it seems to vary between SLAB and SLUB. So define a common maximum size for kmalloc. For conveniences sake we use the maximum size ever supported which is 32 MB. We limit the maximum size to a lower limit if MAX_ORDER does not allow such large allocations. For many architectures this patch will have the effect of adding large kmalloc sizes. x86_64 adds 5 new kmalloc sizes. So a small amount of memory will be needed for these caches (contemporary SLAB has dynamically sizeable node and cpu structure so the waste is less than in the past) Most architectures will then be able to allocate object with sizes up to MAX_ORDER. We have had repeated breakage (in fact whenever we doubled the number of supported processors) on IA64 because one or the other struct grew beyond what the slab allocators supported. This will avoid future issues and f.e. avoid fixes for 2k and 4k cpu support. CONFIG_LARGE_ALLOCS is no longer necessary so drop it. It fixes sparc64 with SLAB.

There is no reason why we should keep checking for destructors calls in the slab allocators. The RFC for this patch was discussed at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=117882364330705&w=2 Destructors were mainly used for list management which required them to take a spinlock. Taking a spinlock in a destructor is a bit risky since the slab allocators may run the destructors anytime they decide a slab is no longer needed. Patch drops destructor support.

52ade9b Linus Torvalds 16 May 2007, 22:28:14 UTC Fix ACPI suspend / device suspend ordering problem In commit e3c7db621bed4afb8e231cb005057f2feb5db557 we fixed the resume ordering, so that the ACPI low-level resume code was called before the actual driver resume was called. However, that broke the nesting logic of suspend and resume, and we continued to suspend the devices _after_ we the ACPI device suspend code was called. That resulted in us saving PCI state for devices that had already been changed by ACPI, and in some cases disabled entirely (causing the PCI save_state to be all-ones). Which in turn caused the wrong state to be written back on resume. This moves the ACPI device suspend to after the device model per-device suspend() calls. This fixes the bogus state save.

6ddcd3b Tejun Heo 14 May 2007, 18:28:15 UTC libata: during revalidation, check n_sectors after device is configured Device might be resized during ata_dev_configure() due to HPA or (later) ACPI _GTF. Currently it's worked around by caching n_sectors before turning off HPA. The cached original size is overwritten if the device is reconfigured without being hardreset - which always happens after configuring trasnfer mode. If the device gets hardreset for some reason after that, revalidation fails with -ENODEV. This patch makes size checking more robust by moving n_sectors check from ata_dev_reread_id() to ata_dev_revalidate() after the device is fully configured. No matter what happens during configuration, a device must have the same n_sectors after fully configured to be treated as the same device.

c7754d4 David S. Miller 16 May 2007, 00:03:54 UTC [SPARC64]: Add hypervisor API negotiation and fix console bugs. Hypervisor interfaces need to be negotiated in order to use some API calls reliably. So add a small set of interfaces to request API versions and query current settings. This allows us to fix some bugs in the hypervisor console: 1) If we can negotiate API group CORE of at least major 1 minor 1 we can use con_read and con_write which can improve console performance quite a bit. 2) When we do a console write request, we should hold the spinlock around the whole request, not a byte at a time. What would happen is that it's easy for output from different cpus to get mixed with each other. 3) Use consistent udelay() based polling, udelay(1) each loop with a limit of 1000 polls to handle stuck hypervisor console.

122ab08 Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 15 May 2007, 22:51:46 UTC ide: remove ide_use_dma() ide_use_dma() duplicates a lot of ide_max_dma_mode() functionality and as all users of ide_use_dma() were converted to use ide_tune_dma() now it is possible to add missing checks to ide_tune_dma() and remove ide_use_dma() completely, so do it.

4fce316 Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 15 May 2007, 22:51:41 UTC pdc202xx_old: rewrite mode programming code (v2) This patch is based on the documentation (I would like to thank Promise for it) and also partially on the older vendor driver. Rewrite mode programming code: * disable 66MHz clock in pdc202xx_tune_chipset() so it is correctly disabled even if both devices on the channel are not DMA capable and after reset * enable/disable IORDY and PREFETCH bits in pdc202xx_tune_chipset() as they need to be setup correctly also for PIO only devices, plus IORDY wasn't disabled for non-IORDY devices and PREFETCH wasn't disabled for ATAPI devices * remove dead code for setting SYNC_ERDDY_EN bits from config_chipset_for_dma() (driver sets ->autotune to 1 so PIO modes are always programmed => lower nibble of register A never equals 4 => "chipset_is_set" is always true) * enable PIO mode programming for all ATAPI devices (it was limited to ->media == ide_cdrom devices) * remove extra reads of registers A/B/C, don't read register D et all * do clearing / programming of registers A/B/C in one go (gets rid of extra PCI config space read/write cycle) * set initial values of drive_conf/AP/BP/CP variables to zero (paranoia for the case when PCI reads fail) * remove XFER_UDMA6 to XFER_UDMA5 remapping case - it can't happen (ide_rate_filter() takes care of it) * fix XFER_MW_DMA0 timings (they were overclocked, use the official ones) * fix bitmasks for clearing bits of register B: - when programming DMA mode bit 0x10 of register B was cleared which resulted in overclocked PIO timing setting (iff PIO0 was used) - when programming PIO mode bits 0x18 weren't cleared so suboptimal timings were used for PIO1-4 if PIO0 was previously set (bit 0x10) and for PIO0/3/4 if PIO1/2 was previously set (bit 0x08) * add FIXME comment about missing locking for 66MHz clock register Also while at it: * remove unused defines * do a few cosmetic / CodingStyle fixes * bump driver version v2: * in pdc202xx_tune_chipset() the old content of drive configuration registers is used only by the debugging code so cover "drive_conf" PCI registers read by #if PDC202XX_DEBUG_DRIVE_INFO (Noticed by Sergei Shtylyov) Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com> 15 May 2007, 22:51:41 UTC
4e19b5c Kim Phillips 11 May 2007, 23:25:07 UTC ucc_geth: eliminate max-speed, change interface-type to phy-connection-type It was agreed that phy-connection-type was a better name for the interface-type property, so this patch renames it. Also, the max-speed property name was determined too generic, and is therefore eliminated in favour of phy-connection-type derivation logic. includes corrections to copyright text.
