This patch handles the VIDIOC_S_FMT and VIDIOC_G_FMT ioctls for the saa6752hs. As only 4 preset video formats are supported (SIF, 1/2D1, 2/3D1, D1), we compute to which the asked resolution is the nearest and apply it. Signed-off-by:

It seems that the code responsible for this is in kernel/itimer.c:126: p->signal->real_timer.expires = jiffies + interval; add_timer(&p->signal->real_timer); If you request an interval of, lets say 900 usecs, the interval given by timeval_to_jiffies will be 1. If you request this when we are half-way between two timer ticks, the interval will only give 400 usecs. If we want to guarantee that we never ever give intervals less than requested, the simple solution would be to change that to: p->signal->real_timer.expires = jiffies + interval + 1; This however will produce pathological cases, like having a idle system being requested 1 ms timeouts will give systematically 2 ms timeouts, whereas currently it simply gives a few usecs less than 1 ms. The complex (and more computationally expensive) solution would be to check the gettimeofday time, and compute the correct number of jiffies. This way, if we request a 300 usecs timer 200 usecs inside the timer tick, we can wait just one tick, but not if we are 800 usecs inside the tick. This would also mean that we would have to lock preemption during these computations to avoid races, etc. I've searched the archives but couldn't find this particular issue being discussed before. Attached is a patch to do the simple solution, in case anybody thinks that it should be used. Signed-Off-By:

The `last_bh' logic probably isn't worth much. In those situations where only the front part of the page is being written out we will save some looping but in the vastly more common case of an all-page writeout if just adds more code. Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au> Signed-off-by:

Remove all those get_bh()'s and put_bh()'s by extending lock_page() to cover the troublesome regions. (get_bh() and put_bh() happen every time whereas contention on a page's lock in there happens basically never). Cc: Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au> Signed-off-by:

When running fsstress -v -d $DIR/tmp -n 1000 -p 1000 -l 2 on an ext2 filesystem with 1024 byte block size, on SMP i386 with 4096 byte page size over loopback to an image file on a tmpfs filesystem, I would very quickly hit BUG_ON(!buffer_async_write(bh)); in fs/buffer.c:end_buffer_async_write It seems that more than one request would be submitted for a given bh at a time. What would happen is the following: 2 threads doing __mpage_writepages on the same page. Thread 1 - lock the page first, and enter __block_write_full_page. Thread 1 - (eg.) mark_buffer_async_write on the first 2 buffers. Thread 1 - set page writeback, unlock page. Thread 2 - lock page, wait on page writeback Thread 1 - submit_bh on the first 2 buffers. => both requests complete, none of the page buffers are async_write, end_page_writeback is called. Thread 2 - wakes up. enters __block_write_full_page. Thread 2 - mark_buffer_async_write on (eg.) the last buffer Thread 1 - finds the last buffer has async_write set, submit_bh on that. Thread 2 - submit_bh on the last buffer. => oops. So change __block_write_full_page to explicitly keep track of the last bh we need to issue, so we don't touch anything after issuing the last request. Signed-off-by:

Fix a race where __block_prepare_write can leak out an in-flight read against a bh if get_block returns an error. This can lead to the page becoming unlocked while the buffer is locked and the read still in flight. __mpage_writepage BUGs on this condition. BUG sighted on a 2-way Itanium2 system with 16K PAGE_SIZE running fsstress -v -d $DIR/tmp -n 1000 -p 1000 -l 2 where $DIR is a new ext2 filesystem with 4K blocks that is quite small (causing get_block to fail often with -ENOSPC).

Add better support for (non-incremental) 2.6.x.y patches; If an ending version number if not specified, the script automatically increments the SUBLEVEL (x in 2.6.x.y) until no more patch files are found; however, EXTRAVERSION (y in 2.6.x.y) is never automatically incremented but must be specified fully. patch-kernel does not normally support reverse patching, but does so when applying EXTRAVERSION (x.y) patches, so that moving from 2.6.11.y to 2.6.11.z is easy and handled by the script (reverse 2.6.11.y and apply 2.6.11.z).

Kprobes could not handle the insertion of a probe on the ret/lret instruction and used to oops after single stepping since kprobes was modifying eip/rip incorrectly. Adjustment of eip/rip is not required after single stepping in case of ret/lret instruction, because eip/rip points to the correct location after execution of the ret/lret instruction. This patch fixes the above problem. Signed-off-by:

s390 passes parameters in registers. So the only safe way to find out the address of signal context, error-address and error-type (trap_no), which are passed to signal handlers as parameters, is to declare these parameters. So I inserted an subarch-specific macro which holds the declaration of parameters for signal handlers. Signed-off-by:

s390 has fast read access to realtime clock (nanosecond resolution). So it makes sense to have an arch-specific implementation not only of __delay, but __udelay also. Signed-off-by:

Checksum handling largely depends on the subarch. Thus, I renamed i386 arch_csum_partial in arch/um/sys-i386/checksum.S back to csum_partial, removed csum_partial from arch/um/kernel/checksum.c and shifted EXPORT_SYMBOL(csum_partial) to arch/um/sys-i386/ksyms.c. Then, csum_partial_copy_to and csum_partial_copy_from were shifted from arch/um/kernel/checksum.c to arch/um/include/sysdep-i386/checksum.h and inserted in the calling functions csum_partial_copy_from_user() and csum_and_copy_to_user(). Now, arch/um/kernel/checksum.c is empty and removed. Signed-off-by:

This makes SIGWINCH work again, and fixes a couple of SIGWINCH-associated crashes. First, the sigio thread disables SIGWINCH because all hell breaks loose if it ever gets one and tries to call the signal handling code. Second, there was a problem with deferencing tty structs after they were freed. The SIGWINCH support for a tty wasn't being turned off or freed after the tty went away. Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the arch-specific fault/trap-infos from thread and skas-regs. It adds a new struct faultinfo, that is arch-specific defined in sysdep/faultinfo.h. The structure is inserted in thread.arch and thread.regs.skas and thread.regs.tt Now, segv and other trap-handlers can copy the contents from regs.X.faultinfo to thread.arch.faultinfo with one simple assignment. Also, the number of macros necessary is reduced to FAULT_ADDRESS(struct faultinfo) extracts the faulting address from faultinfo FAULT_WRITE(struct faultinfo) extracts the "is_write" flag SEGV_IS_FIXABLE(struct faultinfo) is true for the fixable segvs, i.e. (TRAP == 14) on i386 UPT_FAULTINFO(regs) result is (struct faultinfo *) to the faultinfo in regs->skas.faultinfo GET_FAULTINFO_FROM_SC(struct faultinfo, struct sigcontext *) copies the relevant parts of the sigcontext to struct faultinfo. On SIGSEGV, call user_signal() instead of handle_segv(), if the architecture provides the information needed in PTRACE_FAULTINFO, or if PTRACE_FAULTINFO is missing, because segv-stub will provide the info. The benefit of the change is, that in case of a non-fixable SIGSEGV, we can give user processes a SIGSEGV, instead of possibly looping on pagefault handling. Since handle_segv() sikked arch_fixup() implicitly by passing ip==0 to segv(), I changed segv() to call arch_fixup() only, if !is_user. Signed-off-by: -

The next group of helpers is a bit trickier - they want the constants similar to those in user-offsets.h, but we need target sc.h for it. So we can't put that into user-offsets (sc.h depends on it) and need the second generated header for that stuff (kernel-offsets.h. BFD... Signed-off-by:

Al Viro authored
Beginning of cross-build fixes. Instead of expecting that mk_user_constants (compiled and executed on the build box) will see the sizeof, etc. for target box, we do what every architecture already does for asm-offsets. Namely, have user-offsets.c compiled *for* *target* into user-offsets.s and sed it into the header with relevant constants. We don't need to reinvent any wheels - all tools are already there. This patch deals with mk_user_constants. It doesn't assume any relationship between target and build environment anymore - we pick all defines we need from user-offsets.h. Later patches will deal with the rest of mk_... helpers in the same way. Signed-off-by:

In include/asm-x86_64/string.h there are such comments: /* Use C out of line version for memcmp */ #define memcmp __builtin_memcmp int memcmp(const void * cs,const void * ct,size_t count); This would mean that if the compiler does not decide to use __builtin_memcmp, it emits a call to memcmp to be satisfied by the C out-of-line version in lib/string.c. What happens is that after preprocessing, in lib/string.i you may find the definition of "__builtin_strcmp". Actually, by accident, in the object you will find the definition of strcmp and such (maybe a trick intended to redirect calls to __builtin_memcmp to the default memcmp when the definition is not expanded); however, this particular case is not a documented feature as far as I can see. Also, the EXPORT_SYMBOL does not work, so it's duplicated in the arch. I simply added some #undef to lib/string.c and removed the (now duplicated) exports in x86-64 and UML/x86_64 subarchs (the second ones are introduced by another patch I just posted for -mm).
