Per the SBP-2 specification, all SBP-2 target devices must have a BUSY_TIMEOUT register. Per the 1394-1995 specification, the retry_limt portion of the register should be set to 0x0 initially, and set on the target by a logged in initiator (i.e., a Linux host w/firewire controller(s)). Well, as it turns out, lots of devices these days have actually moved on to starting to implement SBP-3 compliance, which says that retry_limit should default to 0xf instead (yes, SBP-3 stomps directly on 1394-1995, oops). Prior to this change, the firewire driver stack didn't touch retry_limit, and any SBP-3 compliant device worked fine, while SBP-2 compliant ones were unable to retransmit when the host returned an ack_busy_X, which resulted in stalled out I/O, eventually causing the SCSI layer to give up and offline the device. The simple fix is for us to set retry_limit to 0xf in the register for all devices (which actually matches what the old ieee1394 stack did). Prior to this change, a hard disk behind an SBP-2 Prolific PL-3507 bridge chip would routinely encounter buffer I/O errors and wind up offlined by the SCSI layer. With this change, I've encountered zero I/O failures moving tens of GB of data around. Signed-off-by: Jarod Wilson <jwilson@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

Copied from ohci1394.c. This code is necessary to prevent machine check exceptions when reloading or resuming the driver. Tested on a 1st generation PowerBook G4 Titanium, which also needs the pci_probe() hunk. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de> I was able to reproduce the system exception on resume with a 3rd-gen Titanium PowerBook G4 667, and this patch does let the system resume successfully now. Not quite clear if there was possibly an updated version coming using pci_enable_device() instead of the pair of pmac_call_feature() calls, but either way, this is a definite must-have, at least for older ppc macs -- my Aluminum PowerBook G4/1.67 suspends and resumes without this patch just fine.

We currently set the root-domain online span automatically when the domain is added to the cpu if the cpu is already a member of cpu_online_map. This was done as a hack/bug-fix for s2ram, but it also causes a problem with hotplug CPU_DOWN transitioning. The right way to fix the original problem is to actually respond to CPU_UP events, instead of CPU_ONLINE, which is already too late. This solves the hung reboot regression reported by Andrew Morton and others.

The first version of the ntp_interval/tick_length inconsistent usage patch was recently merged as bbe4d18a http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405 While the fix did greatly improve the situation, it was correctly pointed out by Roman that it does have a small bug: If the users change clocksources after the system has been running and NTP has made corrections, the correctoins made against the old clocksource will be applied against the new clocksource, causing error. The second attempt, which corrects the issue in the NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH definition has also made it up-stream as commit e13a2e61 http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e13a2e61dd5152f5499d2003470acf9c838eab84 Roman has correctly pointed out that CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST is calculated based on the PIT's frequency, and isn't really relevant to non-PIT driven clocksources (that is, clocksources other then jiffies and pit). This patch reverts both of those changes, and simply removes CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST. This does remove the granularity error correction for users of PIT and Jiffies clocksource users, but the granularity error but for the majority of users, it should be within the 500ppm range NTP can accommodate for. For systems that have granularity errors greater then 500ppm, the "ntp_tick_adj=" boot option can be used to compensate.

This makes 64-bit ptrace calls setting the 64-bit orig_ax field for a 32-bit task sign-extend the low 32 bits up to 64. This matches what a 64-bit debugger expects when tracing a 32-bit task. This follows on my "x86_64 ia32 syscall restart fix". This didn't matter until that was fixed. The debugger ignores or zeros the high half of every register slot it sets (including the orig_rax pseudo-register) uniformly. It expects that the setting of the low 32 bits always has the same meaning as a 32-bit debugger setting those same 32 bits with native 32-bit facilities. This never arose before because the syscall restart check never matched any -ERESTART* values due to lack of sign extension. Before that fix, even 32-bit ptrace setting orig_eax to -1 failed to trigger the restart check anyway. So this was never noticed as a regression of 64-bit debuggers vs 32-bit debuggers on the same 64-bit kernel. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> [ Changed to just do the sign-extension unconditionally on x86-64, since orig_ax is always just a small integer and doesn't need the full 64-bit range ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

As long as the directory contents haven't changed, we should just let the path walk proceed to cross the mountpoint. Apart from being an optimisation in the case of 'nohide' mountpoint traversals, it also fixes an issue with referrals: referral inodes don't have valid filehandles, so calling nfs_revalidate_inode() on them is a bug.

When we detect that we've crossed a mountpoint on the remote server, we must take care not to use that inode to revalidate the fsid on our current superblock. To do so, we label the inode as a remote mountpoint, and check for that in nfs_update_inode(). Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

The card state mutex was only initialized when a device was connected, but used during unload unconditionally, leading to an Oops if a driver was loaded and unloaded again without ever connecting a device. Fix this by initializing the mutex as soon as the structure is allocated. Also add a missing mutex unlock revealed in the same execution path. This fixes a possible Oops in 2.6.25-rc that was introduced by commit e468c048 ("Gigaset: permit module unload"). Thanks to Roland Kletzing for reporting this problem.
