2400ff7 [PATCH] CPUSETS: add mems to basic usage documentation It seems that there must be at least one node in mems and at least one CPU in cpus in order to be able to assign tasks to a cpuset. This makes sense. And I think it would also make sense to include a mems setting in the basic usage section of the documentation. I also wonder if something logged to dmsg, explaining why a write failed, would be a good enhancement. I ended up having rummage arround in cpuset.c in order to work out why my configuration was failing.

10fa115 [PATCH] uml: fix unreasonably long udelay Currently we have a confused udelay implementation. * __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64 * our implementation requires usecs as arg * it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper. To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed - that's why UML seems to work most times. Fix this with a simple udelay implementation.

398e692 [ARM] 4298/1: fix memory barriers for DMA coherent and SMP platforms This patch: - Switches mb/rmb/wmb back to being full-blown DMBs on ARM SMP systems, since mb/rmb/wmb are required to order Normal memory accesses as well. - Enables the use of DMB and ISB on XSC3 (which is an ARMv5TE ISA core but conforms to the ARMv6 memory ordering model and supports the various ARMv6 barriers.) - Makes DMA coherent platforms (only ixp23xx at the moment) map mb/rmb/wmb to dmb(), as on DMA coherent platforms, DMA consistent mappings are done as Normal mappings, which are weakly ordered.

c21b1e4 [PATCH] kbuild: fix dependency generation Commit 2e3646e51b2d6415549b310655df63e7e0d7a080 changed the way the split config tree is built, but failed to also adjust fixdep accordingly - if changing a config option from or to m, files referencing the respective CONFIG_..._MODULE (but not the corresponding CONFIG_...) didn't get rebuilt. The problem is that trisate symbol are represent with three different symbols: SYMBOL=n => no symbol defined SYMBOL=y => CONFIG_SYMBOL defined to '1' SYMBOL=m => CONFIG_SYMBOL_MODULE defined to '1' But conf_split_config do not distingush between the =y and =m case, so only the =y case is honoured. This is fixed in fixdep so when a CONFIG symbol with _MODULE is found we skip that part and only look for the CONFIG_SYMBOL version.

83d2cd3 [IA64] bugfix stack layout upside-down ia64 expects following vm layout: == low memory [register-stack grows up] [memory-stack grows down] == high memory But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the stack *might* start. Stack randomization will result in the memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if you were very unlucky right on top of it!).

16a1001 [PATCH] holepunch: fix disconnected pages after second truncate shmem_truncate_range has its own truncate_inode_pages_range, to free any pages racily instantiated while it was in progress: a SHMEM_PAGEIN flag is set when this might have happened. But holepunching gets no chance to clear that flag at the start of vmtruncate_range, so it's always set (unless a truncate came just before), so holepunch almost always does this second truncate_inode_pages_range. shmem holepunch has unlikely swap<->file races hereabouts whatever we do (without a fuller rework than is fit for this release): I was going to skip the second truncate in the punch_hole case, but Miklos points out that would make holepunch correctness more vulnerable to swapoff. So keep the second truncate, but follow it by an unmap_mapping_range to eliminate the disconnected pages (freed from pagecache while still mapped in userspace) that it might have left behind.

1ae7000 [PATCH] holepunch: fix shmem_truncate_range punch locking Miklos Szeredi observes that during truncation of shmem page directories, info->lock is released to improve latency (after lowering i_size and next_index to exclude races); but this is quite wrong for holepunching, which receives no such protection from i_size or next_index, and is left vulnerable to races with shmem_unuse, shmem_getpage and shmem_writepage. Hold info->lock throughout when holepunching? No, any user could prevent rescheduling for far too long. Instead take info->lock just when needed: in shmem_free_swp when removing the swap entries, and whenever removing a directory page from the level above. But so long as we remove before scanning, we can safely skip taking the lock at the lower levels, except at misaligned start and end of the hole.

a2646d1 [PATCH] holepunch: fix shmem_truncate_range punching too far Miklos Szeredi observes BUG_ON(!entry) in shmem_writepage() triggered in rare circumstances, because shmem_truncate_range() erroneously removes partially truncated directory pages at the end of the range: later reclaim on pages pointing to these removed directories triggers the BUG. Indeed, and it can also cause data loss beyond the hole. Fix this as in the patch proposed by Miklos, but distinguish between "limit" (how far we need to search: ignore truncation's next_index optimization in the holepunch case - if there are races it's more consistent to act on the whole range specified) and "upper_limit" (how far we can free directory pages: generally we must be careful to keep partially punched pages, but can relax at end of file - i_size being held stable by i_mutex).

af84eab [PATCH] uml: fix LVM crash Permit lvm to create logical volumes without crashing UML. When device-mapper's DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD ioctl is called to create a new device, dev_create()->dm_create()->alloc_dev()-> blk_queue_bounce_limit(md->queue, BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) is called. blk_queue_bounce_limit(BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) calls init_emergency_isa_pool() if blk_max_pfn < blk_max_low_pfn. This is the case on UML, but init_emergency_isa_pool() hits BUG_ON(!isa_page_pool) because there doesn't seem to be a dma zone on UML for mempool_create() to allocate from. Most architectures seem to have max_low_pfn == max_pfn, but UML doesn't because of the uml_reserved chunk it keeps for itself. From what I can see, max_pfn and max_low_pfn don't get much use after the bootmem-allocator stops being used anyway, except that they initialize the block layer's blk_max_low_pfn/blk_max_pfn. This ensures init_emergency_isa_pool() doesn't crash uml in this situation by setting max_low_pfn == max_pfn in mem_init().

2a9529a [PATCH] uml: fix I/O hang when multiple devices are in use Commit 62f96cb01e8de7a5daee472e540f726db2801499 introduced per-devices queues and locks, which was fine as far as it went, but left in place a global which controlled access to submitting requests to the host. This should have been made per-device as well, since it causes I/O hangs when multiple block devices are in use. This patch fixes that by replacing the global with an activity flag in the device structure in order to tell whether the queue is currently being run.

cb3fecc [PATCH] bluetooth hid quirks: mightymouse quirk I have a bugreport that scrollwheel of bluetooth version of apple mightymouse doesn't work. The USB version of mightymouse works, as there is a quirk for handling scrollwheel in hid/usbhid for it. Now that bluetooth git tree is hooked to generic hid layer, it could easily use the quirks which are already present in generic hid parser, hid-input, etc. Below is a simple patch against bluetooth git tree, which adds quirk handling to current bluetooth hidp code, and sets quirk flags for device 0x05ac/0x030c, which is the bluetooth version of the apple mightymouse.

I accidentally replaced an == with a !=. Besides just being a dumb thing to do apparently this has a bad side effect. The improper orphaned process group detection causes kwin to die after a suspend/resume cycle. I'm amazed this patch has been around as long as it has without anyone else noticing something funny going on. And the following people deserve credit for spotting and helping to reproduce this.

55a6160 ahci.c: walkaround for SB600 SATA internal error issue There is a HW issue in ATI SB600 SATA that PxSERR.E should not be set on some conditions, for example, when there is no media in SATA CD/DVD drive or media is not ready, AHCI controller fails to execute ATAPI commands and reports PORT_IRQ_TF_ERR, but ATI SB600 SATA controller sets PxSERR.E at the same time, which is not necessary. This patch is just to ignore the INTERNAL ERROR in such case. Without this patch, ahci error handler will report many errors as below: ----------- cut from dmesg ----------- ata9: soft resetting port ata9: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) ata9.00: configured for UDMA/33 ata9: EH complete ata9.00: exception Emask 0x40 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x800 action 0x2 ata9.00: (irq_stat 0x40000001) ata9.00: cmd a0/00:00:00:00:20/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 cdb 0x0 data 0 res 51/24:03:00:00:20/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x40 (internal error) ata9: soft resetting port ata9: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) ata9.00: configured for UDMA/33 ata9: EH complete ata9.00: exception Emask 0x40 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x800 action 0x2 ata9.00: (irq_stat 0x40000001) ata9.00: cmd a0/01:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 cdb 0x43 data 12 in res 51/24:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x40 (internal error) -------- end cut --------- Signed-off-by: Conke Hu <conke.hu@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> 28 March 2007, 06:04:27 UTC
