d1a35e4 m68k: Disable Amiga serial console support if modular If CONFIG_AMIGA_BUILTIN_SERIAL=m, I get the following warnings: | drivers/char/amiserial.c: At top level: | drivers/char/amiserial.c:2138: warning: data definition has no type or storage class | drivers/char/amiserial.c:2138: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'console_initcall' | drivers/char/amiserial.c:2138: warning: parameter names (without types) in function declaration | drivers/char/amiserial.c:2134: warning: 'amiserial_console_init' defined but not used because console_initcall() is not defined (nor really sensible) in the modular case. So disable serial console support if the driver is modular.

9ce209d epoll: avoid double-inserts in case of EFAULT In commit f337b9c58332bdecde965b436e47ea4c94d30da0 ("epoll: drop unnecessary test") Thomas found that there is an unnecessary (always true) test in ep_send_events(). The callback never inserts into ->rdllink while the send loop is performed, and also does the ~EP_PRIVATE_BITS test. Given we're holding the mutex during this time, the conditions tested inside the loop are always true. HOWEVER. The test "!ep_is_linked(&epi->rdllink)" wasn't there because we insert into ->rdllink, but because the send-events loop might terminate before the whole list is scanned (-EFAULT). In such cases, when the loop terminates early, and when a (leftover) file received an event while we're performing the lockless loop, we need such test to avoid to double insert the epoll items. The list_splice() done a few steps below, will correctly re-insert the ones that were left on "txlist". This should fix the kenrel.org bugzilla entry 11831.

4d36a9e select: deal with math overflow from borderline valid userland data Some userland apps seem to pass in a "0" for the seconds, and several seconds worth of usecs to select(). The old kernels accepted this just fine, so the new kernels must too. However, due to the upscaling of the microseconds to nanoseconds we had some cases where we got math overflow, and depending on the GCC version (due to inlining decisions) that actually resulted in an -EINVAL return. This patch fixes this by adding the excess microseconds to the seconds field. Also with thanks to Marcin Slusarz for spotting some implementation bugs in the diagnostics patches.

44a504c wireless: fix regression caused by regulatory config option The default for the regulatory compatibility option is wrong; if you picked the default you ended up with a non-functional wifi system (at least I did on Fedora 9 with iwl4965). I don't think even the October 2008 releases of the various distros has the new userland so clearly the default is wrong, and also we can't just go about deleting this in 2.6.29...

e383d56 r8169: revert "read MAC address from EEPROM on init" This reverts commit 7bf6bf4803df1adc927f585168d2135fb019c698. The code has both a short existence and an increasing track of failures despite some work to amend it for -rc1. It is not just a matter of reading the eeprom: sometimes the eeprom is read correctly, then the mac address is not written correctly back into the mac registers. Some chipsets seem to work reliably but it is not clear at this point if the code can simply be made to work on a per-chipset basis and post -rc1 is not the place where I want to experiment these things.

ce97e13 fix allmodconfig breakage If you use KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG (even with empty file) you get broken allmodconfig/allyesconfig; CONFIG_MODULES gets turned off, with obvious massive fallout. Breakage had been introduced when conf_set_all_new_symbols() got used for allmodconfig et.al. What happens is that sym_calc_value(modules_sym) done in conf_read_simple() sets SYMBOL_VALID on both modules_sym and MODULES. When we get to conf_set_all_new_symbols(), we set sym->def[S_DEF_USER] on everything, but it has no effect on sym->curr for the symbols that already have SYMBOL_VALID - these are stuck. Solution: use sym_clear_all_valid() in there. Note that it makes reevaluation of modules_sym redundant - sym_clear_all_valid() will do that itself.

ec38fa2 hwmon: (lm90) Fix handling of hysteresis value There are several problems in the way the hysteresis value is handled by the lm90 driver: * In show_temphyst(), specific handling of the MAX6646 is missing, so the hysteresis is reported incorrectly if the critical temperature is over 127 degrees C. * In set_temphyst(), the new hysteresis register value is written to the chip but data->temp_hyst isn't updated accordingly, so there is a short period of time (up to 2 seconds) where the old hystereris value will be returned while the new one is already active. * In set_temphyst(), the critical temperature which is used as a base to compute the value of the hysteresis register lacks device-specific handling. As a result, the value of the hysteresis register might be incorrect for the ADT7461 and MAX6646 chips. Fix these 3 bugs.

0dcfeb7 firewire: fw-sbp2: delay first login to avoid retries This optimizes firewire-sbp2's device probe for the case that the local node and the SBP-2 node were discovered at the same time. In this case, fw-core's bus management work and fw-sbp2's login and SCSI probe work are scheduled in parallel (in the globally shared workqueue and in fw-sbp2's workqueue, respectively). The bus reset from fw-core may then disturb and extremely delay the login and SCSI probe because the latter fails with several command timeouts and retries and has to be retried from scratch. We avoid this particular situation of sbp2_login() and fw_card_bm_work() running in parallel by delaying the first sbp2_login() a little bit. This is meant to be a short-term fix for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466679. In the long run, the SCSI probe, i.e. fw-sbp2's call of __scsi_add_device(), should be parallelized with sbp2_reconnect(). Problem reported and fix tested and confirmed by Alex Kanavin.

This reverts commit a802dd0eb5fc97a50cf1abb1f788a8f6cc5db635 by moving the call to init_workqueues() back where it belongs - after SMP has been initialized. It also moves stop_machine_init() - which needs workqueues - to a later phase using a core_initcall() instead of early_initcall(). That should satisfy all ordering requirements, and was apparently the reason why init_workqueues() was moved to be too early.

3f3a490 sched: virtual time buddy preemption Since we moved wakeup preemption back to virtual time, it makes sense to move the buddy stuff back as well. The purpose of the buddy scheduling is to allow a quickly scheduling pair of tasks to run away from the group as far as a regular busy task would be allowed under wakeup preemption. This has the advantage that the pair can ping-pong for a while, enjoying cache-hotness. Without buddy scheduling other tasks would interleave destroying the cache. Also, it saves a word in cfs_rq.

1af5f73 sched: more accurate min_vruntime accounting Mike noticed the current min_vruntime tracking can go wrong and skip the current task. If the only remaining task in the tree is a nice 19 task with huge vruntime, new tasks will be inserted too far to the right too, causing some interactibity issues. min_vruntime can only change due to the leftmost entry disappearing (dequeue_entity()), or by the leftmost entry being incremented past the next entry, which elects a new leftmost (__update_curr()) Due to the current entry not being part of the actual tree, we have to compare the leftmost tree entry with the current entry, and take the leftmost of these two. So create a update_min_vruntime() function that takes computes the leftmost vruntime in the system (either tree of current) and increases the cfs_rq->min_vruntime if the computed value is larger than the previously found min_vruntime.

d2174c3 PCI hotplug: cpqphp: fix kernel NULL pointer dereference The following patch fixes the regression in 2.6.27 that causes kernel NULL pointer dereference at cpqphp driver probe time. This patch should be backported to the .27 stable series. Seems to have been introduced by f46753c5e354b857b20ab8e0fe7b2579831dc369. The root cause of this problem seems that cpqphp driver calls pci_hp_register() wrongly. In current implementation, cpqphp driver passes 'ctrl->pci_dev->subordinate' as a second parameter for pci_hp_register(). But because hotplug slots and it's hotplug controller (exists as a pci funcion) are on the same bus, it should be 'ctrl->pci_dev->bus' instead.

fd6149d tcp: Restore ordering of TCP options for the sake of inter-operability This is not our bug! Sadly some devices cannot cope with the change of TCP option ordering which was a result of the recent rewrite of the option code (not that there was some particular reason steming from the rewrite for the reordering) though any ordering of TCP options is perfectly legal. Thus we restore the original ordering to allow interoperability with/through such broken devices and add some warning about this trap. Since the reordering just happened without any particular reason, this change shouldn't cost us anything. There are already couple of known failure reports (within close proximity of the last release), so the problem might be more wide-spread than a single device. And other reports which may be due to the same problem though the symptoms were less obvious. Analysis of one of the case revealed (with very high probability) that sack capability cannot be negotiated as the first option (SYN never got a response).

03967c5 x86: restore the old swiotlb alloc_coherent behavior This restores the old swiotlb alloc_coherent behavior (before the alloc_coherent rewrite): http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/200 The old alloc_coherent avoids GFP_DMA allocation first and if the allocated address is not fit for the device's coherent_dma_mask, then dma_alloc_coherent does GFP_DMA allocation. If it fails, alloc_coherent calls swiotlb_alloc_coherent (in short, we rarely used swiotlb_alloc_coherent). After the alloc_coherent rewrite, dma_alloc_coherent (include/asm-x86/dma-mapping.h) directly calls swiotlb_alloc_coherent. It means that we possibly can't handle a device having dma_masks > 24bit < 32bits since swiotlb_alloc_coherent doesn't have the above GFP_DMA retry mechanism. This patch fixes x86's swiotlb alloc_coherent to use the GFP_DMA retry mechanism, which dma_generic_alloc_coherent() provides now (pci-nommu.c and GART IOMMU driver also use dma_generic_alloc_coherent).

75bebb7 x86: use GFP_DMA for 24bit coherent_dma_mask dma_alloc_coherent (include/asm-x86/dma-mapping.h) avoids GFP_DMA allocation first and if the allocated address is not fit for the device's coherent_dma_mask, then dma_alloc_coherent does GFP_DMA allocation. This is because dma_alloc_coherent avoids precious GFP_DMA zone if possible. This is also how the old dma_alloc_coherent (arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c) works. However, if the coherent_dma_mask of a device is 24bit, there is no point to go into the above GFP_DMA retry mechanism. We had better use GFP_DMA in the first place.

a2b89b5 swiotlb: remove panic for alloc_coherent failure swiotlb_alloc_coherent calls panic() when allocated swiotlb pages is not fit for a device's dma mask. However, alloc_coherent failure is not a disaster at all. AFAIK, none of other x86 and IA64 IOMMU implementations don't crash in case of alloc_coherent failure. There are some drivers that don't check alloc_coherent failure but not many (about ten and I've already started to fix some of them). alloc_coherent returns NULL in case of failure so it's likely that these guilty drivers crash immediately. So swiotlb doesn't need to call panic() just for them.

f3161f3 pcc-acpi: fix compile with new stricter ACPI types This was another merge problem that wasn't a data conflict, but due to independent changes in two branches that just didn't work together. The pcc-acpi staging driver used acpi_driver_data(device) = hotkey; to set driver data, but the ACPI merge made that invalid in commit db89b4f0dbab837d0f3de2c3e9427a8d5393afa3 ("ACPI: catch calls of acpi_driver_data on pointer of wrong type"), and now you're supposed to just do. device->driver_data = hotkey; instead. Fix it up. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 23 October 2008, 18:54:08 UTC
12e1ec9 ext3 quota support: fix compile failure This one was due to a merge error: we added a use of nd.path in commit 2d7c820e56ce83b23daee9eb5343730fb309418e ("ext3: add checks for errors from jbd"), and concurrently we got rid of 'nd' and used a naked 'path' in commit 8264613def2e5c4f12bc3167713090fd172e6055 ("[PATCH] switch quota_on-related stuff to kern_path()"). That all merged cleanly, but it didn't actually _work_. This should fix it. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 23 October 2008, 18:48:56 UTC
