      Btrfs: make sure not to defrag extents past i_size · f7f43cc8
      Chris Mason authored
      The btrfs file defrag code will loop through the extents and
      force COW on them.  But there is a concurrent truncate in the middle of
      the defrag, it might end up defragging the same range over and over
      again.
      
      The problem is that writepage won't go through and do anything on pages
      past i_size, so the cow won't happen, so the file will appear to still
      be fragmented.  defrag will end up hitting the same extents again and
      again.
      
      In the worst case, the truncate can actually live lock with the defrag
      because the defrag keeps creating new ordered extents which the truncate
      code keeps waiting on.
      
      The fix here is to make defrag check for i_size inside the main loop,
      instead of just once before the looping starts.

      x86: Default to vsyscall=native for now · 2b666859
      Adrian Bunk authored
      This UML breakage:
      
        linux-2.6.30.1[3800] vsyscall fault (exploit attempt?) ip:ffffffffff600000 cs:33 sp:7fbfb9c498 ax:ffffffffff600000 si:0 di:606790
        linux-2.6.30.1[3856] vsyscall fault (exploit attempt?) ip:ffffffffff600000 cs:33 sp:7fbfb13168 ax:ffffffffff600000 si:0 di:606790
      
      Is caused by commit 3ae36655 ("x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add
      vsyscall= parameter") - the vsyscall emulation code is not fully cooked
      yet as UML relies on some rather fragile SIGSEGV semantics.
      
      Linus suggested in https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/9/376 to default
      to vsyscall=native for now, this patch implements that.

      x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS info on ASUS M2V-MX SE · 29cf7a30
      Paul Menzel authored
      In summary, this DMI quirk uses the _CRS info by default for the ASUS
      M2V-MX SE by turning on `pci=use_crs` and is similar to the quirk
      added by commit 2491762c ("x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS info on
      ASRock ALiveSATA2-GLAN") whose commit message should be read for further
      information.
      
      Since commit 3e3da00c ("x86/pci: AMD one chain system to use pci
      read out res") Linux gives the following oops:

      Trusting the ACPI _CRS information (`pci=use_crs`) fixes this problem.
      
          $ dmesg | grep -i crs # with the quirk
          PCI: Using host bridge windows from ACPI; if necessary, use "pci=nocrs" and report a bug
      
      The match has to be against the DMI board entries though since the vendor entries are not populated.
      
          DMI: System manufacturer System Product Name/M2V-MX SE, BIOS 0304    10/30/2007
      
      This quirk should be removed when `pci=use_crs` is enabled for machines
      from 2006 or earlier or some other solution is implemented.
      
      Using coreboot [1] with this board the problem does not exist but this
      quirk also does not affect it either. To be safe though the check is
      tightened to only take effect when the BIOS from American Megatrends is
      used.

      bridge: leave carrier on for empty bridge · b64b73d7
      stephen hemminger authored
      This resolves a regression seen by some users of bridging.
      Some users use the bridge like a dummy device.
      They expect to be able to put an IPv6 address on the device
      with no ports attached. Although there are better ways of doing
      this, there is no reason to not allow it.
      
      Note: the bridge still will reflect the state of ports in the
      bridge if there are any added.

      The encoders are supposedly fully routeable, but changing the mapping
