      [PATCH] sg driver against lk 2.5.25 · 4b11b184
      Douglas Gilbert authored
      This patch is against lk 2.5.25 . It
        - fixes copy_from/to_user() [William Stinson from dj tree]
        - disables kiobuf use, so it will compile without kiobufs
      
      The latter change is so Andrew Morton can remove kiobufs
      as suggested in his "direct-to-BIO for O_DIRECT" thread.

      [PATCH] bluesmoke fixes take 2. · 9399b29a
      Dave Jones authored
      From Andi Kleen:
      
      Some fixes for CONFIG_X86_MCE_NONFATAL
      
      Calling smp_call_function from interrupt context is forbidden
      
      Unless I'm mistaken it would BUG on any box with more than two CPUs because
      it would expect smp_call_function callback to run only on a single CPU??
      
      Also handle the Hammer.

      [PATCH] error code for mprotect() · 964f2d4d
      Hirofumi Ogawa authored
      SuSv3 says: "The mprotect() function shall fail if:
      
        [EACCES]
          The prot argument specifies a protection that violates the access
          permission the process has to the underlying memory object.
      
        [EAGAIN]
          The prot argument specifies PROT_WRITE over a MAP_PRIVATE mapping and
          there are insufficient memory resources to reserve for locking the
          private page.
      
        [EINVAL]
          The addr argument is not a multiple of the page size as returned by
          sysconf().
      
        [ENOMEM]
          Addresses in the range [addr,addr+len) are invalid for the address
          space of a process, or specify one or more pages which are not mapped.
      
        [ENOMEM]
          The prot argument specifies PROT_WRITE on a MAP_PRIVATE mapping, and
          it would require more space than the system is able to supply for
          locking the private pages, if required.
      
        [ENOTSUP]
          The implementation does not support the combination of accesses
          requested in the prot argument."
      
      This fixes error code of mprotect() of the ENOMEM case.

      [PATCH] Allow non zero boot cpu · b8bbd139
      Anton Blanchard authored
      A partitioned ppc64 machine can have a boot cpuid anywhere from 0 to 31.
      With the non linear cpu changes in 2.5.24 we must set up the initial task
      to start on the boot cpu. (since it isnt always 0 now)
      
      With this patch I am able to boot on cpus other than 0. I also tested
      discontiguous cpuids. So the non linear cpu stuff checks out OK.

      [PATCH] suspend-to-disk: cleanup printks(), rearrange reading · ea7d406d
      Pavel Machek authored
      I'd like Florent credited -- he is maintaining 2.4.X version and
      helping with development. Kill warnings by rearranging code / adding
      prototypes. Enable using separate console (so user sees progress and X
      suspend/resume works properly), forward-port of updates from Florent
      and stop using own PRINTK stuff (mostly). Reading now primarily uses
      block_device(), this should enable more cleanups. Fixed double free on
      error path.

      [PATCH] fix timer interrupts on NUMA-Q · 897575e3
      Martin J. Bligh authored
      Since I turned on the IO-APICs on secondary quads, we are receiving
      timer interrupts on *all* quads, not just the first quad, each from their
      local timer chip. This causes time to progress far too rapidly ;-)
      
      The simple patch below turns off the timer interrupts for IO-APICs other
      than interrupt 0, and has been tested to fix the problem. As it switches
      on clustered_apic_mode, it should be safe from hurting anyone else.
      
      This fix is already in 2.4 - I'm playing catchup with 2.5 - the same patch
      applies with just a line offset

      [PATCH] 2.5.25 remove global semaphore_lock spin lock. · 72785ef7
      Bob Miller authored
      Replace the global semaphore_lock with the spinlock embedded in
      the wait_queue_head_t.  None of the data protected by semaphore_lock
      is global and there is no need to restrict the system to only allow
      one semaphore to be dealt with at a time.
      
      This removes 2 lock round trips from __down() and __down_interruptible().
      It also reduces the number of cache lines touched by 1 (the cache line
      with seamphore_lock).

      [PATCH] direct-to-BIO for O_DIRECT · 42ec8bc1
      Andrew Morton authored
      Here's a patch which converts O_DIRECT to go direct-to-BIO, bypassing
      the kiovec layer.  It's followed by a patch which converts the raw
      driver to use the O_DIRECT engine.
      
      CPU utilisation is about the same as the kiovec-based implementation.
      Read and write bandwidth are the same too, for 128k chunks.   But with
      one megabyte chunks, this implementation is 20% faster at writing.
      
      I assume this is because the kiobuf-based implementation has to stop
      and wait for each 128k chunk, whereas this code streams the entire
      request, regardless of its size.
      
      This is with a single (oldish) scsi disk on aic7xxx.  I'd expect the
      margin to widen on higher-end hardware which likes to have more
      requests in flight.
      
      Question is: what do we want to do with this sucker?  These are the
      remaining users of kiovecs:
      
      	drivers/md/lvm-snap.c
      	drivers/media/video/video-buf.c
      	drivers/mtd/devices/blkmtd.c
      	drivers/scsi/sg.c
      
      the video and mtd drivers seems to be fairly easy to de-kiobufize.
      I'm aware of one proprietary driver which uses kiobufs.  XFS uses
      kiobufs a little bit - just to map the pages.
      
      So with a bit of effort and maintainer-irritation, we can extract
      the kiobuf layer from the kernel.

      [PATCH] IDE 98 · 2dbd1502
      Martin Dalecki authored
      Synchronize with 2.5.25.
      
      Incorporate IDE-94, as well as 95, 96, 97 and 98-pre as announced by Bartek and
      unfortunately still not included in 2.5.25, which makes admittedly things
      still fall appart:
      
      Missing changelog for 98-pre by Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz (BTW.  Handling
      Unicode should be essential at least to make proper crediting of many many
      peoples possible!) follows here:
      
       - add missing channel->lock unlocking/locking and fix some comments
         in ide_timer_expiry()
      
       - allow PCI drivers to disable autodma in ->init_dma()
         (bug introduced in IDE 97, affects sl82c105.c only)
      
         noticed by Russell King
      
       - alim15x3.c, if revision is <= 0x20 disable autodma
      
       - remove unneeded checks (drive.dn > 3) from pdc202xx.c and sis5513.c
      
       - use block layer wrappers
      
      And my additions follow:
      
       - Fix TCQ code. Patch based on work by Alexander Atanasov.
      
       - Use the FreeBSD derived request handler return values:
      
      	ATA_OP_FINISHED
      	ATA_OP_CONTINUES
      	ATA_OP_RELEASED
      	ATA_OP_READY	/* for status ready reporting during poll */
      
       - PMAC compilation fix by Paul Mackerras.
      
       - Simplify the ata_status_poll function significantly.
      
       - Fix logic used to prevent drive IRQ assertion from drive on channels sharing
         our interrupt.
      
      NOTE: We will move it later to the time where a request is really finished
      soon.
      
       - Don't use ata_busy_poll() use ata_status_poll() instead. This increases code
         unification.
      
      NOTE: We should maybe invent some way to prevent the error recovery path to be
      taken at all. In esp to prevent ata_error from trying to reissue commands.

      NTFS: 2.0.20 - Support non-resident directory index bitmaps, fix page leak in readdir. · a5ea1066
      Anton Altaparmakov authored
      - Move the directory index bitmap to use an attribute inode instead of
        having special fields for it inside the ntfs inode structure. This
        means that the index bitmaps now use the page cache for i/o, too,
        and also as a side effect we get support for non-resident index
        bitmaps for free.
      - Simplify/cleanup error handling in fs/ntfs/dir.c::ntfs_readdir() and
        fix a page leak that manifested itself in some cases.
      - Add fs/ntfs/inode.c::ntfs_put_inode(), which we need to release the
        index bitmap inode on the final iput().
