667984d x86: GEODE fix a race condition in the MFGPT timer tick When we set the MFGPT timer tick, there is a chance that we'll immediately assert an event. If for some reason the IRQ routing for this clock has been setup for some other purpose, then we could end up firing an interrupt into the SMM handler or worse. This rearranges the timer tick init function to initalize the handler before we set up the MFGPT clock to make sure that even if we get an event, it will go to the handler. Furthermore, in the handler we need to make sure that we clear the event, even if the timer isn't running.

80c002d W1: w1_therm.c is flagging 0C etc as invalid The extra rom[0] check is flagging valid temperatures as invalid when there is already a CRC data transmission check. w1_therm_read_bin() if (rom[8] == crc && rom[0]) verdict = 1; Requiring rom[0] to be non-zero will flag as invalid temperature conversions when the low byte is zero, specifically the temperatures 0C, 16C, 32C, 48C, -16C, -32C, and -48C. The CRC check is produced on the device for the previous 8 bytes and is required to ensure the data integrity in transmission. I don't see why the extra check for rom[0] being non-zero is in there. Evgeniy Polyakov didn't know either. Just for a check I unplugged the sensor, executed a temperature conversion, and read the results. The read was all ff's, which also failed the CRC, so it doesn't need to protect against a disconnected sensor. I have more extensive patches in the work, but these two trivial ones will do for today. I would like to hear from people who use the ds2490 USB to one wire dongle. 1 if you would be willing to test the patches as I currently only have the one sensor on a short parisite powered wire, 2 if there is any cheap sources for the ds2490.

87b4b66 hwmon: (it87) request only Environment Controller ports The IT8705F and related parts are Super I/O controllers that contain many separate devices. Some BIOSes describe IT8705F I/O port usage under a motherboard device (PNP0C02) with overlapping regions, e.g., 0x290-0x29f and 0x290-0x294. The it87 driver supports only the Environment Controller, which requires only two ISA ports, but it used to request an eight-port range. If that range exceeds a range reported by the BIOS, as 0x290-0x297 would, the request fails, and the it87 driver cannot claim the device. This patch makes the it87 driver request only the two ports used for the Environment Controller device.

0487de9 [MIPS] Malta: Fix reading the PCI clock frequency on big-endian The JMPRS register on Malta boards keeps a 32-bit CPU-endian value. The readw() function assumes that the value it reads is a little-endian 16-bit number. Therefore, using readw() to obtain the value of the JMPRS register is a mistake. This error leads to incorrect reading of the PCI clock frequency on big-endian during board start-up. Change readw() to __raw_readl(). This was tested by injecting a call to printk() and verifying that the value of the jmpr variable was consistent with current setting of the JP4 "PCI CLK" jumper.

6836545 [NET]: rtnl_link: fix use-after-free When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier. The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current one. For now this seems like the safest solution. With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction of multiple devices at once.

When queueing packets using NFQUEUE netfilter takes a reference to skb->nf_bridge->physoutdev, which is overwritten when the packet is forwarded to the second port. This causes refcount unterflows for the first device and refcount leaks for all others. Additionally this provides incorrect data to the iptables physdev match. Unshare skb->nf_bridge by copying it if it is shared before assigning the physoutdev device. Reported, tested and based on initial patch by Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>.

49d85c5 [NET]: Fix interrupt semaphore corruption in Intel drivers. Several of the Intel ethernet drivers keep an atomic counter used to manage when to actually hit the hardware with a disable or an enable. The way the net_rx_work() breakout logic works during a pending napi_disable() is that it simply unschedules the poll even if it still has work. This can potentially leave interrupts disabled, but that is OK because all of the drivers are about to disable interrupts anyways in all such code paths that do a napi_disable(). Unfortunately, this trips up the semaphore used here in the Intel drivers. If you hit this case, when you try to bring the interface back up it won't enable interrupts. A reload of the driver module fixes it of course. So what we do is make sure all the sequences now go: napi_disable(); atomic_set(&adapter->irq_sem, 0); *_irq_disable(); which makes sure the counter is always in the correct state.

9723198 #ifdef very expensive debug check in page fault path This patch puts #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM around a check in vm_normal_page that verifies that a pfn is valid. This patch increases performance of the page fault microbenchmark in lmbench by 13% and overall dbench performance by 7% on s390x. pfn_valid() is an expensive operation on s390 that needs a high double digit amount of CPU cycles. Nick Piggin suggested that pfn_valid() involves an array lookup on systems with sparsemem, and therefore is an expensive operation there too. The check looks like a clear debug thing to me, it should never trigger on regular kernels. And if a pte is created for an invalid pfn, we'll find out once the memory gets accessed later on anyway.

6915719 cpufreq: Initialise default governor before use When the cpufreq driver starts up at boot time, it calls into the default governor which might not be initialised yet. This hurts when the governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up by its init function. This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when being the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it was the only possible choice. The performance governor is always initialized early because it might be used as fallback even when not being the default. Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor and cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq work-queue during boot-time.

47cccd7 ipg: fix Tx completion irq request The current logic will only request an ack for the first pending packet. No irq is triggered as soon as the CPU submits a few packets a bit quickly. Let's request an irq for every packet instead. Signed-off-by: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> 17 January 2008, 22:35:09 UTC
