9619955 Joy Latten 20 March 2007, 01:47:26 UTC [XFRM]: ipsecv6 needs a space when printing audit record. This patch adds a space between printing of the src and dst ipv6 addresses. Otherwise, audit or other test tools may fail to process the audit record properly because they cannot find the dst address. Signed-off-by: Joy Latten <latten@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

749bf92 Vlad Yasevich 20 March 2007, 00:02:30 UTC [SCTP]: Reset some transport and association variables on restart If the association has been restarted, we need to reset the transport congestion variables as well as accumulated error counts and CACC variables. If we do not, the association will use the wrong values and may terminate prematurely. This was found with a scenario where the peer restarted the association when lksctp was in the last HB timeout for its association. The restart happened, but the error counts have not been reset and when the timeout occurred, a newly restarted association was terminated due to excessive retransmits.

0b58a81 Vlad Yasevich 20 March 2007, 00:01:17 UTC [SCTP]: Clean up stale data during association restart During association restart we may have stale data sitting on the ULP queue waiting for ordering or reassembly. This data may cause severe problems if not cleaned up. In particular stale data pending ordering may cause problems with receive window exhaustion if our peer has decided to restart the association.

While these are all 64-bits, the kernel build warns about formating a "long" with %ll: drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c:176: warning: long long unsigned int format, acpi_integer arg (arg 5) So skip using "u64" and define acpi_integer as "unsigned long long" to make gcc happy with %ll.

But select ignores dependencies, allnoconfig chooses CONFIG_PM=n, and thus the menu of sub-options under ACPI vanish, which breaks the build. Manually select PM along with ACPI for now.

The mPCIE connector includes USB pins... the card shows up to the system as a USB device, and powers itself from the PCI bus. The card I have isn't activated yet, so I can't get a PPP session up yet, but I have tested basic serial communication successfully in both 2.6.18 and 2.6.20 kernels, once the product ID was added. (the driver changed quite a bit between the two revs.) In both drivers, it responds to AT commands and such.

For serialcore to pass an interrupt endpoint to a subdriver, the subdriver must define and _export_ a fitting callback. The mos7720 driver failed to do so. This led invariably to an oops upon open.

d9c1e9a Eric W. Biederman 18 March 2007, 18:45:44 UTC [PATCH] tty: Fix two reported pid leaks These leaks were reported by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marians@gmail.com> and I have been able to very by inspection they are possible. When converting tty_io.c to store pids as struct pid pointers instead of pid_t values it appears I overlooked two places where we stop using the pid value. The very obvious one is in do_tty_hangup, and the one the less obvious one in __proc_set_tty. When looking into the code __proc_set_tty only has pids that need to be put because of failures of other parts of the code to properly perform hangup processing. Fixing the leak here in __proc_set_tty is easy and obviously correct so I am doing that first. Fixing the places that should be performing hangup processing is much less obviously correct. So those I'm aiming those patches at -mm. for now, so the can age a while before they are merged. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

ca1b940 Thomas Gleixner 18 March 2007, 09:26:13 UTC [PATCH] i386: trust the PM-Timer calibration of the local APIC timer When PM-Timer is available for local APIC timer calibration we can skip the verification of the calibrated time value. The resulting error is quite small on a bunch of evaluated platforms and is less harming than the observed false positives. We need to keep the verification on systems, which have no PM-Timer to avoid bogus local APIC timer calibrations in the range of factor 2-10, which can be observed when swicthing off the PM-timer support in the kernel configuration. The wrong calibration values are probably caused by SMM code trying to emulate a PS/2 keyboard from a (maybe connected or not) USB keyboard. This prohibits the accurate delivery of PIT interrupts, which are used to calibrate the local APIC timer. Unfortunately we have no way to disable this BIOS misfeature in the early boot process. Add also the dropped cpu_relax() back to the wait loops.

ac1b714 Avi Kivity 08 March 2007, 15:13:32 UTC KVM: MMU: Fix guest writes to nonpae pde KVM shadow page tables are always in pae mode, regardless of the guest setting. This means that a guest pde (mapping 4MB of memory) is mapped to two shadow pdes (mapping 2MB each). When the guest writes to a pte or pde, we intercept the write and emulate it. We also remove any shadowed mappings corresponding to the write. Since the mmu did not account for the doubling in the number of pdes, it removed the wrong entry, resulting in a mismatch between shadow page tables and guest page tables, followed shortly by guest memory corruption. This patch fixes the problem by detecting the special case of writing to a non-pae pde and adjusting the address and number of shadow pdes zapped accordingly.

120b9cf Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 17 March 2007, 20:57:41 UTC ide: remove CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO config options All modern distributions have been setting these options to "y" for ages. (additionally "n" cases have been obsoleted for few years). Therefore use DMA by default and remove CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO (also remove no longer needed CONFIG_IDEDMA_AUTO). This fixes DMA support for rare configurations where CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO was set to "n" but "hdparm -d 1" was used to enable DMA support and which were forced to PIO mode by "ide: don't allow DMA to be enabled if CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO=n" patch. There is no functionality loss because "ide=nodma" kernel option is still available.

6f5050a Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 17 March 2007, 20:57:39 UTC ide: don't allow DMA to be enabled if CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO=n For CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO=n and/or "ide=nodma" option the host/device are not programmed for DMA and it is also explicitly disabled by ide_set_dma() (->ide_dma_check returns "-1"). However the code responsible for manually enabling DMA ("hdparm -d 1") has a bug which results in DMA being erroneously enabled - ide_set_dma() incorrectly passes "0" return value to set_using_dma(). This may work if BIOS/firmware configured the host/device for DMA and chipset allows independent configuration of DMA/PIO modes but won't work after suspend and is generally unsafe on many chipsets (possibly including data corruption if the same registers are used for DMA/PIO timings). This patch fixes kernel bugzilla bug #8169 (piix host driver fixes for setting PIO mode exposed the problem described above). The side-effect of the fix is that some rare configuration may be forced to PIO mode when DMA mode was previously used - this is addressed by the next patch which removes CONFIG_IDEDMA_{PCI,ICS}_AUTO config option completely. Thanks goes out to Patrick Horn for reporting the issue, narrowing it down to the specific commit and testing the fix. Also thanks to Sergei Shtylyov for help in debugging the problem.

Rework the code to be calculating recovery clock count as a difference between the total cycle count and the active count (we don't need to calculate the recovery time itself since it's not specified for the PIO modes 0 to 2, and for modes 3 and 4 this formula gives enough recovery time anyway in the chip's supported PCI frequency range).

Sigh, I never figured out from the code and the bug reports what's going on. The observed hangs are caused by a stale state transition of the clock event devices, which keeps the RCU synchronization away from completion, when the non boot CPU is brought back up. The suspend/resume in oneshot mode needs the similar care as the periodic mode during suspend to RAM. My assumption that the state transitions during the different shutdown/bringups of s2disk would go through the periodic boot phase and then switch over to highres resp. nohz mode were simply wrong. Add the appropriate suspend / resume handling for the non periodic modes.

The problem is that the new binary layout (selected in arch_pick_mmap_layout) places the mapping segment 128MB or the stack rlimit away from the top of the process memory, whichever is larger. If you chose an rlimit of less than 128MB (most defaults are in the 8Mb range) then you can end up having your entire stack randomized away. The fix is to make randomize_stack_top() only steal at most 8MB, which this patch does. However, I have to point out that even with this, your stack rlimit might not be exactly what you get if it's > 128MB, because you're still losing the random offset of up to 8MB. The true fix should be to leave an explicit gap for the randomization plus a buffer when determining mmap_base, but that would involve fixing all the architectures.

89a0914 Peter Zijlstra 16 March 2007, 21:38:26 UTC [PATCH] nfs: fix congestion control The current NFS client congestion logic is severly broken, it marks the backing device congested during each nfs_writepages() call but doesn't mirror this in nfs_writepage() which makes for deadlocks. Also it implements its own waitqueue. Replace this by a more regular congestion implementation that puts a cap on the number of active writeback pages and uses the bdi congestion waitqueue. Also always use an interruptible wait since it makes sense to be able to SIGKILL the process even for mounts without 'intr'.

As per the discussion, ENOMEM values were ignored, as they might scare the users. So, with the current code, we end up returning -1 and not EIO for the ioctl() calls. Which doesn't give any clue to the user of what went wrong.

As struct smb_request may be reused, rq_trans2buffer is freed before each new request. However if last servers's response is not multi but single trans2 message then new rq_trans2buffer is not allocated but last smb_rput still tries to free it again. To prevent this issue rq_trans2buffer pointer should be set to NULL after kfree.
