ccdfc52 sh64: Drop deprecated ISA tuning for legacy toolchains. The original sh64 toolchains required that we tune the ISA level accordingly to not have head.S/entry.S blow up. With current toolchains, this is no longer the case, and the syntax magically changed as well, causing all current toolchains to die a horrible death. Incidentally, code generation in other parts of the kernel is now significantly complex enough that none of the older toolchains make it very far these days, so there's not even any point in preserving legacy compatability via as-option. This fixes a long-standing issue, as noted here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/1/5/223 Though at the time the current toolchains were too broken to make adjusting the tuning worthwhile.

62f1d0e [libata] sata_mv: errata check buglet fix Fix a buglet; the errata check below this code is assuming the value in the sstatus variable is what was pulled out of the SCR_STATUS register.

8a90516 V4L/DVB (4605): Fixes an issue with V4L1 and make headers-install V4L1 support should be disabled when no CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT is defined, to allow checking for broken V4L2 ports. This is very important during the migration phase for V4L2 API. However, userspace apps should be capable of using both APIs, since they need to test at runtime, via VIDIOCGCAP ioctl, if V4L1 is supported. So, when __KERNEL__ is not defined, those ioctls and corresponding structs should be visible. This patch also removes the obsolete defines HAVE_V4L1 and HAVE_V4L2, that where causing some confusion, and were replaced by CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT and CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2.

e9f7bee [PATCH] NFS: large non-page-aligned direct I/O clobbers memory The logic in nfs_direct_read_schedule and nfs_direct_write_schedule can allow data->npages to be one larger than rpages. This causes a page pointer to be written beyond the end of the pagevec in nfs_read_data (or nfs_write_data). Fix this by making nfs_(read|write)_alloc() calculate the size of the pagevec array, and initialise data->npages. Also get rid of the redundant argument to nfs_commit_alloc().

It ends up returning -EIO. Here is the patch to fix it. If we really want to be paranoid, we can allow return values 0 (HOLE), 1 (we asked for one block) and return -EIO for more than 1 block. But I really don't see a reason for doing it - all we need is the block# here. (doesn't matter how many blocks are mapped). ext3_get_blocks_handle() returns number of blocks it mapped. It returns 0 in case of HOLE. ext3_getblk() should handle HOLE properly (currently its dumping warning stack and returning -EIO).

c5780e9 [PATCH] Use the correct restart option for futex_lock_pi The current implementation of futex_lock_pi returns -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK in case that the lock operation has been interrupted by a signal. This results in a return of -EINTR to userspace in case there is an handler for the signal. This is wrong, because userspace expects that the lock function does not return in any case of signal delivery. This was not caught by my insufficient test case, but triggered a nasty userspace problem in an high load application scenario. Unfortunately also glibc does not check for this invalid return value. Using -ERSTARTNOINTR makes sure, that the interrupted syscall is restarted. The restart block related code can be safely removed, as the possible timeout argument is an absolute time value.

3a45975 [PATCH] IA64,sparc: local DoS with corrupted ELFs This prevents cross-region mappings on IA64 and SPARC which could lead to system crash. They were correctly trapped for normal mmap() calls, but not for the kernel internal calls generated by executable loading. This code just moves the architecture-specific cross-region checks into an arch-specific "arch_mmap_check()" macro, and defines that for the architectures that needed it (ia64, sparc and sparc64). Architectures that don't have any special requirements can just ignore the new cross-region check, since the mmap() code will just notice on its own when the macro isn't defined.

4be536d [XFS] Prevent free space oversubscription and xfssyncd looping. The fix for recent ENOSPC deadlocks introduced certain limitations on allocations. The fix could cause xfssyncd to loop endlessly if we did not leave some space free for the allocator to work correctly. Basically, we needed to ensure that we had at least 4 blocks free for an AG free list and a block for the inode bmap btree at all times. However, this did not take into account the fact that each AG has a free list that needs 4 blocks. Hence any filesystem with more than one AG could cause oversubscription of free space and make xfssyncd spin forever trying to allocate space needed for AG freelists that was not available in the AG. The following patch reserves space for the free lists in all AGs plus the inode bmap btree which prevents oversubscription. It also prevents those blocks from being reported as free space (as they can never be used) and makes the SMP in-core superblock accounting code and the reserved block ioctl respect this requirement.

96dd742 [PATCH] prevent timespec/timeval to ktime_t overflow Frank v. Waveren pointed out that on 64bit machines the timespec to ktime_t conversion might overflow. This is also true for timeval to ktime_t conversions. This breaks a "sleep inf" on 64bit machines. While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification the internal representation of ktime_t is based on nanoseconds. The conversion of seconds to nanoseconds overflows for seconds values >= (MAX_LONG / NSEC_PER_SEC). Check the seconds argument to the conversion and limit it to the maximum time which can be represented by ktime_t.

a188ad2 [ARM] 3762/1: Fix ptrace cache coherency bug for ARM1136 VIPT nonaliasing Harvard caches Patch from George G. Davis Resolve ARM1136 VIPT non-aliasing cache coherency issues observed when using ptrace to set breakpoints and cleanup copy_{to,from}_user_page() while we're here as requested by Russell King because "it's also far too heavy on non-v6 CPUs". NOTES: 1. Only access_process_vm() calls copy_{to,from}_user_page(). 2. access_process_vm() calls get_user_pages() to pin down the "page". 3. get_user_pages() calls flush_dcache_page(page) which ensures cache coherency between kernel and userspace mappings of "page". However flush_dcache_page(page) may not invalidate I-Cache over this range for all cases, specifically, I-Cache is not invalidated for the VIPT non-aliasing case. So memory is consistent between kernel and user space mappings of "page" but I-Cache may still be hot over this range. IOW, we don't have to worry about flush_cache_page() before memcpy(). 4. Now, for the copy_to_user_page() case, after memcpy(), we must flush the caches so memory is consistent with kernel cache entries and invalidate the I-Cache if this mm region is executable. We don't need to do anything after memcpy() for the copy_from_user_page() case since kernel cache entries will be invalidated via the same process above if we access "page" again. The flush_ptrace_access() function (borrowed from SPARC64 implementation) is added to handle cache flushing after memcpy() for the copy_to_user_page() case. Signed-off-by: George G.

3b98b08 [PATCH] fix NUMA interleaving for huge pages Since vma->vm_pgoff is in units of smallpages, VMAs for huge pages have the lower HPAGE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT bits always cleared, which results in badd offsets to the interleave functions. Take this difference from small pages into account when calculating the offset. This does add a 0-bit shift into the small-page path (via alloc_page_vma()), but I think that is negligible. Also add a BUG_ON to prevent the offset from growing due to a negative right-shift, which probably shouldn't be allowed anyways. Tested on an 8-memory node ppc64 NUMA box and got the interleaving I expected.

ca72945 [PATCH] powerpc: Fix PowerMac IRQ handling bug The port to genirq & the new powerpc interrupt model in 2.6.18 introduced a bug in the legacy PowerMac PIC code (used on older machines) because of a typo potentially causing hangs due to interrupt storms. This fixes it, along with a performance issue causing us to do spurrious retriggers after masking an interrupt. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: "Antonino A.

d565dd3 [PATCH] powerpc: More via-pmu backlight fixes The via-pmu backlight code (introduced in 2.6.18) has various design issues causing crashes on machines using it like the old Wallstreet powerbook (Michael, the author, never managed to test on these and I just got my hand on one of those old beasts). This fixes them by no longer trying to hijack the backlight device of the frontmost framebuffer (causing that framebuffer to crash) but having it's own local bits instead. Might look weird but it's better that way on those old machines, at least as a last-minute fix for 2.6.18. We might rework the whole thing later. This patch also changes the way it gets notified of sleep and wakeup in order to properly shut the backlight down on sleep and bring it back on wakeup.

0b1d647 [PATCH] dm: work around mempool_alloc, bio_alloc_bioset deadlocks This patch works around a complex dm-related deadlock/livelock down in the mempool allocator. Alasdair said: Several dm targets suffer from this. Mempools are not yet used correctly everywhere in device-mapper: they can get shared when devices are stacked, and some targets share them across multiple instances. I made fixing this one of the prerequisites for this patch: md-dm-reduce-stack-usage-with-stacked-block-devices.patch which in some cases makes people more likely to hit the problem. There's been some progress on this recently with (unfinished) dm-crypt patches at: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/agk/patches/2.6/editing/ (dm-crypt-move-io-to-workqueue.patch plus dependencies) and: I've no problems with a temporary workaround like that, but Milan Broz (a new Redhat developer in the Czech Republic) has started reviewing all the mempool usage in device-mapper so I'm expecting we'll soon have a proper fix for this associated problems. [He's back from holiday at the start of next week.] For now, this sad-but-safe little patch will allow the machine to recover.
