e5ff15b usb: r8a66597-hdc disable interrupts fix This patch improves disable_controller() in the r8a66597-hdc driver to disable all interrupts and clear status flags. It also makes sure that disable_controller() is called during probe(). This fixes the relatively rare case of unexpected pending interrupts after kexec reboot.

e8708ef spi: spi_sh_msiof: Fixed data sampling on the correct edge The spi_sh_msiof.c driver presently misconfigures REDG and TEDG. TEDG==0 outputs data at the **rising edge** of the clock and REDG==0 samples data at the **falling edge** of the clock. Therefore for SPI, TEDG must be equal to REDG, otherwise the last byte received is not sampled in SPI mode 3. This brings the driver in line with the SH7723 HW Reference Manual settings documented in Figures 20.20 and 20.21 ("SPI Clock and data timing").

f28cf33 drm/kms/radeon: pick digitial encoders smarter. (v3) booting a Lenovo W500 with LVDS + DP outputs showed up a TODO we had on our list, to pick a correct digital encoder block.

61684ce x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init regression This fixes the regression introduced by commit 42590a75019a50012f25a962246498dead428433 ("x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init and agp_amd64_cleanup"). The above commit changes agp_amd64_init() not to do anything if gart_iommu_aperture is not zero. If GART iommu calls agp_amd64_init(), we need to skip agp_amd64_init() when it's called later via module_init. The problem is that gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init() with not zero gart_iommu_aperture so agp_amd64_init() is never initialized. When gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init(), agp should be always initialized.

5352ae6 perf, hw_breakpoint, kgdb: Do not take mutex for kernel debugger This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw breakpoint reservations. The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it can start the kernel running from an invalid context. A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint reservations. The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the hardware breakpoint reservations. Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it will be a system wide reservation.

cc09674 x86, hw_breakpoints, kgdb: Fix kgdb to use hw_breakpoint API In the 2.6.33 kernel, the hw_breakpoint API is now used for the performance event counters. The hw_breakpoint_handler() now consumes the hw breakpoints that were previously set by kgdb arch specific code. In order for kgdb to work in conjunction with this core API change, kgdb must use some of the low level functions of the hw_breakpoint API to install, uninstall, and deal with hw breakpoint reservations. The kgdb core required a change to call kgdb_disable_hw_debug anytime a slave cpu enters kgdb_wait() in order to keep all the hw breakpoints in sync as well as to prevent hitting a hw breakpoint while kgdb is active. During the architecture specific initialization of kgdb, it will pre-allocate 4 disabled (struct perf event **) structures. Kgdb will use these to manage the capabilities for the 4 hw breakpoint registers, per cpu. Right now the hw_breakpoint API does not have a way to ask how many breakpoints are available, on each CPU so it is possible that the install of a breakpoint might fail when kgdb restores the system to the run state. The intent of this patch is to first get the basic functionality of hw breakpoints working and leave it to the person debugging the kernel to understand what hw breakpoints are in use and what restrictions have been imposed as a result. Breakpoint constraints will be dealt with in a future patch. While atomic, the x86 specific kgdb code will call arch_uninstall_hw_breakpoint() and arch_install_hw_breakpoint() to manage the cpu specific hw breakpoints. The net result of these changes allow kgdb to use the same pool of hw_breakpoints that are used by the perf event API, but neither knows about future reservations for the available hw breakpoint slots.

a701623 mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swapping After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's 5f8dcc21211a3d4e3a7a5ca366b469fb88117f61 "page-allocator: split per-cpu list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves. Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it. How did this bug show up? As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator. Bisecting to that commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy. The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones than x86, I think that may be a factor). We guess that lumpy reclaim of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim. But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.

221af7f Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions 'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and it is pretty badly misnamed. It doesn't just flush the old executable environment, it also starts up the new one. Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails. As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit (TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do the actual personality magic. This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the 'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail (still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()). All callers are changed to trivially comply with the new world order. Signed-off-by: H.

035fe03 Btrfs: check total number of devices when removing missing If you have a disk failure in RAID1 and then add a new disk to the array, and then try to remove the missing volume, it will fail. The reason is the sanity check only looks at the total number of rw devices, which is just 2 because we have 2 good disks and 1 bad one. Instead check the total number of devices in the array to make sure we can actually remove the device. Tested this with a failed disk setup and with this test we can now run btrfs-vol -r missing /mount/point and it works fine.

So instead if we are in degraded mode, return 0 so we can go ahead and allocate stuff.

a555f81 Btrfs: Add mount -o compress-force The default btrfs mount -o compress mode will quickly back off compressing a file if it notices that compression does not reduce the size of the data being written.

In that case, we want to add the ability to always try compressing data before writing it. This commit adds mount -o compress-force. A later commit will add a new inode flag that does the same thing.

010c108 MIPS: PowerTV: Fix support for timer interrupts with > 64 external IRQs The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work. On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register, specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.

9c4a6fc MIPS: Fix vmlinuz build for 32bit-only math shells POSIX requires $((<expression>)) arithmetic in sh only to have long arithmetic so on 32-bit sh binaries might do only 32-bit arithmetic but the arithmetic done in arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile needs 64-bit. I play with the AR7 platform, so VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS is 0xffffffff94100000, and for an example 4MiB kernel VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS is made out to be: ---- alex@berk:~$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))' ffffffff94500000 alex@berk:~$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))' 80000000003fffff ---- The former is obviously correct whilst the later breaks things royally. Fortunately working with only the lower 32bit's works for both bash and dash: ---- $ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))' 94500000 $ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))' 94500000 ---- So, we can split the original 64bit string to two parts, and only calculate the low 32bit part, which is big enough (1GiB kernel sizes anyone?) for a normal Linux kernel image file, now, we calculate the VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS like this: 1. if present, append top 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS" as a prefix 2. get the sum of the low 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS + VMLINUX_SIZE This patch fixes vmlinuz kernel builds on systems where only a 32bit-only math shell is available. Patch Changelog: Version 2 - simplified method by using 'expr' for 'substr' and making it work with dash once again Version 1 - Revert the removals of '-n "$(VMLINUX_SIZE)"' to avoid the error of "make clean" - Consider more cases of the VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS Version 0 - initial release Signed-off-by: Alexander Clouter <alex@digriz.org.uk> Acked-by: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/861/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> 27 January 2010, 23:03:30 UTC

4bdadb9 drm/i915: Selectively enable self-reclaim Having missed the ENOMEM return via i915_gem_fault(), there are probably other paths that I also missed. By not enabling NORETRY by default these paths can run the shrinker and take memory from the system (but not from our own inactive lists because our shrinker can not run whilst we hold the struct mutex) and this may allow the system to survive a little longer whilst our drivers consume all available memory.

7a48143 firewire: ohci: fix crashes with TSB43AB23 on 64bit systems Unsurprisingly, Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 exhibits the same behaviour as TSB43AB22/A in dual buffer IR DMA mode: If descriptors are located at physical addresses above the 31 bit address range (2 GB), the controller will overwrite random memory. With luck, this merely prevents video reception. With only a little less luck, the machine crashes. We use the same workaround here as with TSB43AB22/A: Switch off the dual buffer capability flag and use packet-per-buffer IR DMA instead. Another possible workaround would be to limit the coherent DMA mask to 31 bits. In Linux 2.6.33, this change serves effectively only as documentation since dual buffer mode is not used for any controller anymore. But somebody might want to re-enable it in the future to make use of features of dual buffer DMA that are not available in packet-per-buffer mode. In Linux 2.6.32 and older, this update is vital for anyone with this controller, more than 2 GB RAM, a 64 bit kernel, and FireWire video or audio applications.

0531b2a mm: add new 'read_cache_page_gfp()' helper function It's a simplified 'read_cache_page()' which takes a page allocation flag, so that different paths can control how aggressive the memory allocations are that populate a address space. In particular, the intel GPU object mapping code wants to be able to do a certain amount of own internal memory management by automatically shrinking the address space when memory starts getting tight. This allows it to dynamically use different memory allocation policies on a per-allocation basis, rather than depend on the (static) address space gfp policy. The actual new function is a one-liner, but re-organizing the helper functions to the point where you can do this with a single line of code is what most of the patch is all about.

21ec7f6 [S390] fix single stepped svcs with TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y If irq flags tracing is enabled the TRACE_IRQS_ON macros expands to a function call which clobbers registers %r0-%r5. The macro is used in the code path for single stepped system calls. The argument registers %r2-%r6 need to be restored from the stack before the system call function is called.
