I think the problem comes from "markers: fix duplicate modpost entry" (commit d35cb360c29956510b2fe1a953bd4968536f7216) Especially : - add_marker(mod, marker, fmt); + if (!mod->skip) + add_marker(mod, marker, fmt); } return; fail: Here is a fix that should take care if this problem.

e683b42 Haavard Skinnemoen 06 October 2008, 18:09:53 UTC atmel-mci: Initialize BLKR before sending data transfer command The atmel-mci driver sometimes fails data transfers like this: mmcblk0: error -5 transferring data end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 2749769 end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 2749777 It turns out that this might be caused by the BLKR register (which contains the block size and the number of blocks being transfered) being initialized too late. This patch moves the initialization of BLKR so that it contains the correct value before the block transfer command is sent. This error is difficult to reproduce, but if you insert a long delay (mdelay(10) or thereabouts) between the calls to atmci_start_command() and atmci_submit_data(), all transfers seem to fail without this patch, while I haven't seen any failures with this patch.

Looking closer at the code path each NMI takes when KGDB is enabled, I noticed that kgdb_nmicallback is called twice per event: One time via DIE_NMI_IPI notification, the second time on DIE_NMI.

e84956f Rafael J. Wysocki 06 October 2008, 09:59:29 UTC x86 ACPI: Blacklist two HP machines with buggy BIOSes There is a bug in the BIOSes of some HP boxes with AMD Turions which connects IO-APIC pins with ACPI thermal trip points in such a way that if the state of the IO-APIC is not as expected by the (buggy) BIOS, the thermal trip points are set to insanely low values (usually all of them become 16 degrees Celsius). As a result, thermal throttling kicks in and knock the system down to its shoes. Unfortunately some of the recent IO-APIC changes made the bug show up. To prevent this from happening, blacklist machines that are known to be affected (nx6115 and 6715b in this particular case). This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11516 listed as a regression from 2.6.26. On my box it was caused by: commit 691874fa96d6349a8b60f8ea9c2bae52ece79941 Author: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@linux-mips.org> Date: Tue May 27 21:19:51 2008 +0100 x86: I/O APIC: timer through 8259A second-chance Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

It appears that the buggy BIOS code has been copy-pasted to the entire range of machines, for no good reason. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

If a bttv device without radio and one with radio are installed on the same system, and the one without radio is registered first, then radio_open checks for the radio device number of a bttv device that has no radio function, and this breaks. All we have to do to fix it is to skip bttv devices without a radio function.

The code in selinux_secattr_to_sid() was not modified and as a result these two fields were left uninitialized which could result in erratic behavior, including kernel panics, when NetLabel is used. This patch fixes the problem by fully initializing the context in selinux_secattr_to_sid() before use and reducing the level of direct context manipulation done to help prevent future problems.

d3d238c Heiko Carstens 03 October 2008, 19:54:59 UTC [S390] nohz: Fix __udelay. This fixes a regression that came with 934b2857cc576ae53c92a66e63fce7ddcfa74691 ("[S390] nohz/sclp: disable timer on synchronous waits."). If udelay() gets called from a disabled context it sets the clock comparator to a value where it expects the next interrupt. When the interrupt happens the clock comparator gets not reset and therefore the interrupt condition doesn't get cleared. The result is an endless timer interrupt loop. In addition this patch fixes also the following: rcutorture reveals that our __udelay implementation is still buggy, since it might schedule tasklets, but prevents their execution: NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 42 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 142 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 To fix this we make sure that only the clock comparator interrupt is enabled when the enabled wait psw is loaded. Also no code gets called anymore which might schedule tasklets.

At the same time, the warning was also insufficient, since it didn't check that interrupts were enabled.

b5ff7df Linus Torvalds 03 October 2008, 01:52:51 UTC Check mapped ranges on sysfs resource files This is loosely based on a patch by Jesse Barnes to check the user-space PCI mappings though the sysfs interfaces. Quoting Jesse's original explanation: It's fairly common for applications to map PCI resources through sysfs. However, with the current implementation, it's possible for an application to map far more than the range corresponding to the resourceN file it opened. This patch plugs that hole by checking the range at mmap time, similar to what is done on platforms like sparc64 in their lower level PCI remapping routines. It was initially put together to help debug the e1000e NVRAM corruption problem, since we initially thought an X driver might be walking past the end of one of its mappings and clobbering the NVRAM. It now looks like that's not the case, but doing the check is still important for obvious reasons. and this version of the patch differs in that it uses a helper function to clarify the code, and does all the checks in pages (instead of bytes) in order to avoid overflows when doing "<< PAGE_SHIFT" etc. Acked-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 03 October 2008, 01:52:51 UTC

6babc32 Andy Whitcroft 02 October 2008, 21:50:18 UTC mm: handle initialising compound pages at orders greater than MAX_ORDER When we initialise a compound page we initialise the page flags and head page pointer for all base pages spanned by that page. When we initialise a gigantic page (a page of order greater than or equal to MAX_ORDER) we have to initialise more than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages. Currently we assume that all elements of the mem_map in this page are contigious in memory. However this is only guarenteed out to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages, and with SPARSEMEM enabled they will not be contigious. This leads us to walk off the end of the first section and scribble on everything which follows, BAD. When we reach a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundary we much locate the next section of the mem_map. As gigantic pages can only be maximally aligned we know this will occur at exact multiple of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages from the start of the page. This is a bug fix for the gigantic page support in hugetlbfs. Credit to Mel Gorman for spotting the issue.

However do_truncate is what caused the lock ordering error, due to it taking i_mutex. In this case, we can actually just call ramfs directly to allocate memory for the mapping, rather than go via truncate.

This generates 0xffff000f instead of 0x0000000f for a 4 bit monochrome color, leading to image corruption if it is passed to cfb_imageblit or other similar functions. Fix it up.

1fce2d0 Kumar Gala 02 October 2008, 05:58:49 UTC powerpc: Fix boot hang regression on MPC8544DS Commit 00c5372d37a78990c1530184a9c792ee60a30067 caused the MPC8544DS board to hang at boot. The MPC8544DS is unique in that it doesn't use the PCI slots on the ULI (unlike the MPC8572DS or MPC8610HPCD). So the dummy read at the end of the address space causes us to hang. We can detect the situation by comparing the bridge's BARs versus the root complex. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> 02 October 2008, 05:58:49 UTC

d6478fa David Howells 01 October 2008, 12:47:06 UTC MN10300: Fix IRQ handling Fix the IRQ handling on the MN10300 arch. This patch makes a number of significant changes: (1) It separates the irq_chip definition for edge-triggered interrupts from the one for level-triggered interrupts. This is necessary because the MN10300 PIC latches the IRQ channel's interrupt request bit (GxICR_REQUEST), even after the device has ceased to assert its interrupt line and the interrupt channel has been disabled in the PIC. So for level-triggered interrupts we need to clear this bit when we re-enable - which is achieved by setting GxICR_DETECT but not GxICR_REQUEST when writing to the register. Not doing this results in spurious interrupts occurring because calling mask_ack() at the start of handle_level_irq() is insufficient - it fails to clear the REQUEST latch because the device that caused the interrupt is still asserting its interrupt line at this point. (2) IRQ disablement [irq_chip::disable_irq()] shouldn't clear the interrupt request flag for edge-triggered interrupts lest it lose an interrupt. (3) IRQ unmasking [irq_chip::unmask_irq()] also shouldn't clear the interrupt request flag for edge-triggered interrupts lest it lose an interrupt. (4) The end() operation is now left to the default (no-operation) as __do_IRQ() is compiled out. This may affect misrouted_irq(), but according to Thomas Gleixner it's the correct thing to do. (5) handle_level_irq() is used for edge-triggered interrupts rather than handle_edge_irq() as the MN10300 PIC latches interrupt events even on masked IRQ channels, thus rendering IRQ_PENDING unnecessary. It is sufficient to call mask_ack() at the start and unmask() at the end. (6) For level-triggered interrupts, ack() is now NULL as it's not used, and there is no effective ACK function on the PIC. mask_ack() is now the same as mask() as the latch continues to latch, even when the channel is masked. Further, the patch discards the disable() op implementation as its now the same as the mask() op implementation, which is used instead. It also discards the enable() op implementations as they're now the same as the unmask() op implementations, which are used instead.

7253a33 Chandra Seetharaman 01 October 2008, 13:39:27 UTC dm mpath: add missing path switching locking Moving the path activation to workqueue along with scsi_dh patches introduced a race. It is due to the fact that the current_pgpath (in the multipath data structure) can be modified if changes happen in any of the paths leading to the lun. If the changes lead to current_pgpath being set to NULL, then it leads to the invalid access which results in the panic below. This patch fixes that by storing the pgpath to activate in the multipath data structure and properly protecting it. Note that if activate_path is called twice in succession with different pgpath, with the second one being called before the first one is done, then activate path will be called twice for the second pgpath, which is fine.
