0c0e466 Linus Torvalds 23 October 2006, 21:25:30 UTC Revert unintentional and bogus change to drivers/pci/quirks.c In commit 4e8a5201506423e0241202de1349422af4260296 ("[PKT_SCHED] netem: Orphan SKB when adding to queue.") Davem mistakenly also included a temporary diff in his tree that disabled the pci_fixup_video VGA quirk, which broke sparc64. This reverts that part of the commit. Sayeth Davem: "Greg KH has a patch coming to you soon which will move that VGA code back into x86/x86_64/IA64 specific areas and will fix the sparc64 problem properly." Special thanks to Claudio Martins <ctpm@ist.utl.pt> for noticing the error in the first place.

04fed36 Russell King 22 October 2006, 14:57:18 UTC [PATCH] Remove __must_check for device_for_each_child() Eliminate more __must_check madness. The return code from device_for_each_child() depends on the values which the helper function returns. If the helper function always returns zero, it's utterly pointless to check the return code from device_for_each_child(). The only code which knows if the return value should be checked is the caller itself, so forcing the return code to always be checked is silly. Hence, remove the __must_check annotation.

8270953 Gerrit Renker 11 October 2006, 15:26:54 UTC [DCCP]: Fix Oops in DCCPv6 I think I got the cause for the Oops observed in http://www.mail-archive.com/dccp@vger.kernel.org/msg00578.html The problem is always with applications listening on PF_INET6 sockets. Apart from the mentioned oops, I observed another one one, triggered at irregular intervals via timer interrupt: run_timer_softirq -> dccp_keepalive_timer -> inet_csk_reqsk_queue_prune -> reqsk_free -> dccp_v6_reqsk_destructor The latter function is the problem and is also the last function to be called in said kernel panic. In any case, there is a real problem with allocating the right request_sock which is what this patch tackles. It fixes the following problem: - application listens on PF_INET6 - DCCPv4 packet comes in, is handed over to dccp_v4_do_rcv, from there to dccp_v4_conn_request Now: socket is PF_INET6, packet is IPv4. The following code then furnishes the connection with IPv6 - request_sock operations: req = reqsk_alloc(sk->sk_prot->rsk_prot); The first problem is that all further incoming packets will get a Reset since the connection can not be looked up. The second problem is worse: --> reqsk_alloc is called instead of inet6_reqsk_alloc --> consequently inet6_rsk_offset is never set (dangling pointer) --> the request_sock_ops are nevertheless still dccp6_request_ops --> destructor is called via reqsk_free --> dccp_v6_reqsk_destructor tries to free random memory location (inet6_rsk_offset not set) --> panic I have tested this for a while, DCCP sockets are now handled correctly in all three scenarios (v4/v6 only/v4-mapped). Commiter note: I've added the dccp_request_sock_ops forward declaration to keep the tree building and to reduce the size of the patch for 2.6.19, later I'll move the functions to the top of the affected source code to match what we have in the TCP counterpart, where this problem hasn't existed in the first place, dumb me not to have done the same thing on DCCP land 8) Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com> 22 October 2006, 02:55:20 UTC

Turns out this is because it's calling do_div on a 32-bit quantity. Upon further investigation, the sector_t total_size is being assigned to an int, and then we're calling do_div on that int.

The code assumed there was 16K of RAM on Yukon-FE (taken from vendor driver sk98lin which is even more f*cked up on this). Then it assigned based on that. The giveaway was that the registers would only hold 9bits so both RX/TX had 0..1ff for space. It is a wonder it worked at all!

e70ea8c Andi Kleen 21 October 2006, 16:37:03 UTC [PATCH] x86-64: Revert timer routing behaviour back to 2.6.16 state By default route the 8254 over the 8259 and only disable it on ATI boards where this causes double timer interrupts. This should unbreak some Nvidia boards where the timer doesn't seem to tick of it isn't enabled in the 8259. At least one VIA board also seemed to have a little trouble with the disabled 8259. For 2.6.20 we'll try both dynamically without black listing, but I think for .19 this is the safer approach because it has been already well tested in earlier kernels. This also makes the x86-64 behaviour the same as i386. Command line options can change all this of course. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> 21 October 2006, 16:37:03 UTC
dbaab49 Vivek Goyal 21 October 2006, 16:37:03 UTC [PATCH] x86-64: Overlapping program headers in physical addr space fix o A recent change to vmlinux.ld.S file broke kexec as now resulting vmlinux program headers are overlapping in physical address space. o Now all the vsyscall related sections are placed after data and after that mostly init data sections are placed. To avoid physical overlap among phdrs, there are three possible solutions. - Place vsyscall sections also in data phdrs instead of user - move vsyscal sections after init data in bss. - create another phdrs say data.init and move all the sections after vsyscall into this new phdr. o This patch implements the third solution.

84f404f Eric W. Biederman 21 October 2006, 16:37:02 UTC [PATCH] x86-64: Put more than one cpu in TARGET_CPUS TARGET_CPUS is the default irq routing poicy. It specifies which cpus the kernel should aim an irq at. In physflat delivery mode we can route an irq to a single cpu. But that doesn't mean our default policy should only be a single cpu is allowed. By allowing the irq routing code to select from multiple cpus this enables systems with more irqs then we can service on a single processor to actually work. I just audited and tested the code and irqbalance doesn't care, and the io_apic.c doesn't care if we have extra cpus in the mask. Everything will use or assume we are using the lowest numbered cpu in the mask if we can't use them all. So this should result in no behavior changes except on systems that need it.

6bf2daf Eric W. Biederman 21 October 2006, 16:37:02 UTC [PATCH] x86-64: Use irq_domain in ioapic_retrigger_irq Thanks to YH Lu for spotting this. It appears I missed this function when I refactored allocate_irq_vector and introduced irq_domain, with the result that all retriggered irqs would go to cpu 0 even if we were not prepared to receive them there. While reviewing YH's patch I also noticed that this function was missing locking, and since I am now reading two values from two diffrent arrays that looks like a race we might be able to hit in the real world.

The linker is unfortunately not able to build a proper lookup table at link time, instead it creates one at runtime as soon as the bootmem allocator is usable (so you'll continue using the linear lookup for the first [hopefully] few calls). The code should be ready to utilize a build-time created table once a fixed linker becomes available.

cdfce1f Andi Kleen 21 October 2006, 16:37:01 UTC [PATCH] x86: Use -maccumulate-outgoing-args This avoids some problems with gcc 4.x and earlier generating invalid unwind information. In 4.1 the option is default when unwind information is enabled. And it seems to generate smaller code too, so it's probably a good thing on its own. With gcc 4.0: i386: 4683198 902112 480868 6066178 5c9002 vmlinux (before) 4449895 902112 480868 5832875 5900ab vmlinux (after) x86-64: 4939761 1449584 648216 7037561 6b6279 vmlinux (before) 4854193 1449584 648216 6951993 6a1439 vmlinux (after) On 4.1 it shouldn't make much difference because it is default when unwind is enabled anyways.

73bb891 Vivek Goyal 21 October 2006, 16:37:01 UTC [PATCH] x86-64: fix page align in e820 allocator Currently some code pieces assume that address returned by find_e820_area() are page aligned. But looks like find_e820_area() had no such intention and hence one might end up stomping over some of the data. One such case is bootmem allocator initialization code stomped over bss. This patch modified find_e820_area() to return page aligned address. This might be little wasteful of memory but at the same time probably it is easier to handle page aligned memory.
