Export information to /sbin/hotplug for PCMCIA devices: card_id, manf_id, func_id, bus_id (like pcmcia1.0) and crc32-hashes of the prod_id strings. Why not the prod_id strings themselves? a) They may contain all sorts of strange and difficult to handle characters, like " ". b) It's impossible to pass multiple strings to userspace.

git did actually warn me about the fact that I hadn't actually done an "update-cache" on these two files, but the warning was at the bottom of a list of all the files that _did_ change in the merge, so I never noticed. My bad.

Old ISA/VESA systems sometimes put tertiary IDE controllers at addresses 0x1e8, 0x168, 0x1e0 or 0x160. Linux thus probes these addresses on x86 systems. Unfortunately some PCI systems now use these addresses for other purposes which leads to users seeing minute plus hangs during boot or even crashes. The following patch (again has been in Fedora for a while) only probes the obscure legacy ISA ports on machinea that are pre-PCI. This seems to keep everyone happy and if there is someone with that utterly weird corner case the ide= command line still provides a get out of jail card. Unsurprisingly we've not found anyone so affected.

This lets you throw out the iteraid stuff that has ended up back in due to stupid goings on in the IDE world. Its the same heavily tested code shipped in Fedora/Red Hat products but without the other dependancies on the Bartlomiej IDE layer. Pre-requisite: the ide-disk patch I sent to handle pure LBA devices. Obviously you lose things like hot unplug with the Bartlomiej IDE layer at the moment but that won't matter to most users. The patch does the following - Add IT8211/12 to pci_ids.h - Add Makefile/Kconfig entry - Add it8212 driver No core IDE code is touched by this diff Embedded system testing and the ability to force raid mode off by David Howells Made possible by the ite reference code, documentation and also several clarifications and pieces of assistance provided by ITE themselves Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Acked-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <B.Zolnierkiewicz@elka.pw.edu.pl> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

You can't install the base kernel on a Stratus box because of the overuse of __init. Affects both IDE layers identically. It isn't the only misuser of __init so more review of other drivers (or fixing ide_register code to know about hotplug v non-hotplug chipsets) would be good. Original issue found by Stratus and their patch was the inspiration for this trivial one.

The ide-generic driver gives you DMA at bios tuned speed so can actually run a lot of unsupported devices quite well. It has a pci table so that it doesn't grab disks owned by other drivers but no way to override this. The patch adds an option ide-generic-all which makes the driver grab everything going that is IDE class. The diff is messy because I put the special case as case 0 to make the if conditional and long term maintenance easier. This has been in Fedora for some time.

Without the ability to atomically write 16 bytes, we can not update the middle slot of a bundle, slot 1, unless we stop the machine first. This patch will ensure the ability to robustly insert and remove a kprobe by refusing to insert a kprobe on slot 1 until a mechanism is in place to safely handle this case.

The following is a patch provided by Ananth Mavinakayanahalli that implements the new PPC64 specific parts of the new function return probe design. NOTE: Since getting Ananth's patch, I changed trampoline_probe_handler() to consume each of the outstanding return probem instances (feedback on my original RFC after Ananth cut a patch), and also added the arch_init() function (adding arch specific initialization.) I have cross compiled but have not testing this on a PPC64 machine. Changes include: * Addition of kretprobe_trampoline to act as a dummy function for instrumented functions to return to, and for the return probe infrastructure to place a kprobe on on, gaining control so that the return probe handler can be called, and so that the instruction pointer can be moved back to the original return address. * Addition of arch_init(), allowing a kprobe to be registered on kretprobe_trampoline * Addition of trampoline_probe_handler() which is used as the pre_handler for the kprobe inserted on kretprobe_implementation. This is the function that handles the details for calling the return probe handler function and returning control back at the original return address * Addition of arch_prepare_kretprobe() which is setup as the pre_handler for a kprobe registered at the beginning of the target function by kernel/kprobes.c so that a return probe instance can be setup when a caller enters the target function. (A return probe instance contains all the needed information for trampoline_probe_handler to do it's job.) * Hooks added to the exit path of a task so that we can cleanup any left-over return probe instances (i.e. if a task dies while inside a targeted function then the return probe instance was reserved at the beginning of the function but the function never returns so we need to mark the instance as unused.)

The following patch implements function return probes for ia64 using the revised design. With this new design we no longer need to do some of the odd hacks previous required on the last ia64 return probe port that I sent out for comments. Note that this new implementation still does not resolve the problem noted by Keith Owens where backtrace data is lost after a return probe is hit. Changes include: * Addition of kretprobe_trampoline to act as a dummy function for instrumented functions to return to, and for the return probe infrastructure to place a kprobe on on, gaining control so that the return probe handler can be called, and so that the instruction pointer can be moved back to the original return address. * Addition of arch_init(), allowing a kprobe to be registered on kretprobe_trampoline * Addition of trampoline_probe_handler() which is used as the pre_handler for the kprobe inserted on kretprobe_implementation.

The following is the second version of the function return probe patches I sent out earlier this week. Changes since my last submission include: * Fix in ppc64 code removing an unneeded call to re-enable preemption * Fix a build problem in ia64 when kprobes was turned off * Added another BUG_ON check to each of the architecture trampoline handlers My initial patch description ==> From my experiences with adding return probes to x86_64 and ia64, and the feedback on LKML to those patches, I think we can simplify the design for return probes. The following patch tweaks the original design such that: * Instead of storing the stack address in the return probe instance, the task pointer is stored. This gives us all we need in order to: - find the correct return probe instance when we enter the trampoline (even if we are recursing) - find all left-over return probe instances when the task is going away This has the side effect of simplifying the implementation since more work can be done in kernel/kprobes.c since architecture specific knowledge of the stack layout is no longer required. Specifically, we no longer have: - arch_get_kprobe_task() - arch_kprobe_flush_task() - get_rp_inst_tsk() - get_rp_inst() - trampoline_post_handler() <see next bullet> * Instead of splitting the return probe handling and cleanup logic across the pre and post trampoline handlers, all the work is pushed into the pre function (trampoline_probe_handler), and then we skip single stepping the original function. In this case the original instruction to be single stepped was just a NOP, and we can do without the extra interruption. The new flow of events to having a return probe handler execute when a target function exits is: * At system initialization time, a kprobe is inserted at the beginning of kretprobe_trampoline. kernel/kprobes.c use to handle this on it's own, but ia64 needed to do this a little differently (i.e. a function pointer is really a pointer to a structure containing the instruction pointer and a global pointer), so I added the notion of arch_init(), so that kernel/kprobes.c:init_kprobes() now allows architecture specific initialization by calling arch_init() before exiting. Each architecture now registers a kprobe on it's own trampoline function. * register_kretprobe() will insert a kprobe at the beginning of the targeted function with the kprobe pre_handler set to arch_prepare_kretprobe (still no change) * When the target function is entered, the kprobe is fired, calling arch_prepare_kretprobe (still no change) * In arch_prepare_kretprobe() we try to get a free instance and if one is available then we fill out the instance with a pointer to the return probe, the original return address, and a pointer to the task structure (instead of the stack address.) Just like before we change the return address to the trampoline function and mark the instance as used. If multiple return probes are registered for a given target function, then arch_prepare_kretprobe() will get called multiple times for the same task (since our kprobe implementation is able to handle multiple kprobes at the same address.) Past the first call to arch_prepare_kretprobe, we end up with the original address stored in the return probe instance pointing to our trampoline function. (This is a significant difference from the original arch_prepare_kretprobe design.) * Target function executes like normal and then returns to kretprobe_trampoline. * kprobe inserted on the first instruction of kretprobe_trampoline is fired and calls trampoline_probe_handler() (no change here) * trampoline_probe_handler() consumes each of the instances associated with the current task by calling the registered handler function and marking the instance as unused until an instance is found that has a return address different then the trampoline function. (change similar to my previous ia64 RFC) * If the task is killed with some left-over return probe instances (meaning that a target function was entered, but never returned), then we just free any instances associated with the task. (Not much different other then we can handle this without calling architecture specific functions.) There is a known problem that this patch does not yet solve where registering a return probe flush_old_exec or flush_thread will put us in a bad state. Most likely the best way to handle this is to not allow registering return probes on these two functions. (Significant change) This patch series applies to the 2.6.12-rc6-mm1 kernel, and provides: * kernel/kprobes.c changes * i386 patch of existing return probes implementation * x86_64 patch of existing return probe implementation * ia64 implementation * ppc64 implementation (provided by Ananth) This patch implements the architecture independant changes for a reworking of the kprobes based function return probes design. Changes include: * Removing functions for querying a return probe instance off a stack address * Removing the stack_addr field from the kretprobe_instance definition, and adding a task pointer * Adding architecture specific initialization via arch_init() * Removing extern definitions for the architecture trampoline functions (this isn't needed anymore since the architecture handles the initialization of the kprobe in the return probe trampoline function.)

Now that PPC64 has no-execute support, here is a second try to fix the single step out of line during kprobe execution.

This patch fulfills a promise I made to Christoph sometime back. I am removing the partition info from the CCISS_GETLUNINFO ioctl as I was informed my "driver had no damn business reading that structure." ;) The application folks are to use /proc or /sys for partition info from now on.

This is pass 2 of my patch to add pci domain info to an existing ioctl. This time I insert the domain between dev_fn and board_id as Willy suggested and change the var to unsigned short to ease Christoph's concerns.
