On one path, cond_resched_lock() fails to return true if it dropped the lock. We think this might be causing the crashes in JBD's log_do_checkpoint(). Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

On 64-bit machines, PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_MASK and other mask constants passed to pci_size() are 64-bit (for example ~0x0fUL). However, pci_size does comparisons between the u32 arguments and the mask, which will fail even though any result from pci_size is still just 32-bit. Changing the mask argument to u32 seems the obvious thing to do, since all arithmetic in the function is 32-bit and having a larger mask makes no sense. This triggered on a PPC64 system here where an adapter (VGA, as it happened) had a memory region base of 0xfe000000 and a sz of the same, matching the if (max == maxbase ...) test at the bottom of pci_size but failing the mask comparison. Quite a corner case which I guess explains why we haven't seen it until now.

This patch alows you to change the source address of icmp error messages. It applies cleanly to 2.6.11.11 and retains the default behaviour. In the old (default) behaviour icmp error messages are sent with the ip of the exiting interface. The new behaviour (when the sysctl variable is toggled on), it will send the message with the ip of the interface that received the packet that caused the icmp error. This is the behaviour network administrators will expect from a router. It makes debugging complicated network layouts much easier. Also, all 'vendor routers' I know of have the later behaviour.

Userland layer-2 tunneling devices allocated through the TUNTAP driver (drivers/net/tun.c) have a type of ARPHRD_NONE, and have no link-layer address. The kernel complains at regular interval when IPv6 Privacy extension are enabled because it can't find an hardware address : Dec 29 11:02:04 auguste kernel: __ipv6_regen_rndid(idev=cb3e0c00): cannot get EUI64 identifier; use random bytes. IPv6 Privacy extensions should probably be disabled on that sort of device. They won't work anyway. If userland wants a more usual Ethernet-ish interface with usual IPv6 autoconfiguration, it will use a TAP device with an emulated link-layer and a random hardware address rather than a TUN device. As far as I could fine, TUN virtual device from TUNTAP is the very only sort of device using ARPHRD_NONE as kernel device type.

We saw following trace several times: |BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000001] code: httpd/30137 |caller is icmpv6_send+0x23/0x540 | [<c01ad63b>] smp_processor_id+0x9b/0xb8 | [<c02993e7>] icmpv6_send+0x23/0x540 This is because of icmpv6_socket, which is the only one user of smp_processor_id() in icmpv6_send(), AFAIK. Since it should be used in non-preemptive context, let's defer the dereference after disabling preemption (by icmpv6_xmit_lock()).

This makes the EHCI driver spin a bit longer before concluding that the port reset failed. "Obviously safe." It allows some devices to enumerate that previously didn't. We've seen a bunch of these problem reports recently, this will make some go away. As reported by Michael Zapf <Michael.Zapf@uni-kassel.de>, some EHCI controllers seem to take forever to finish port resets and produce "port N reset error -110" type errors. Spinning a bit longer helps. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The pwc chainsaw session left some setups not working. There is a sanity check on compression buffers that simply isn't right any more as we never allocate one. This doesn't address the email and other changes. I'll do those tomorrow if I get time, but it is the minimal fix for the code and basic feature set.

The current radeonfb memset's the framebuffer to 0 when loaded. This removes occasional artifacts but has the nasty side effect that if you load radeonfb without framebuffer console, you destroy the VGA text buffer, font, etc... radeon must not touch the framebuffer content when it doesn't "own" it.

Patch from David Brownell The ARM generic Kconfig filters out IDE options ... except for an error prone ARMload of special cases. This adds one general case to the systems that will offer IDE options: kernels with PCMCIA support, which probably want to use IDE to access CompactFlash cards. This might allow many (most?) of the other cases to disappear, for systems that only see IDE hardware through CF cards. Right now this one patch is used to gate access to CF cards, including MicroDrives, for both omap_cf and at91_cf drivers.

Despite all the care lately in making the powermac sleep/wakeup as robust as possible, there is still a nasty related to the use of cpufreq on PMU based machines. Unfortunately, it affects paulus old powerbook so I have to fix it :) We didn't manage to understand what is precisely going on, it leads to memory corruption and might have to do with RAM not beeing properly refreshed when a cpufreq transition is done right before the sleep. The best workaround (and less intrusive at this point) we could come up with is included in this patch. We basically do _not_ force a switch to high speed on suspend anymore (that is what is causing the problem) on those machines. We still force a speed switch on wakeup (since we don't know what speed we are coming back from sleep at, and that seems to work fine). Since, during this short interval, the actual CPU speed might be incorrect, we also hack around by multiplying loops_per_jiffy by 2 (max speed factor on those machines) during early wakeup stage to make sure udelay's during that time aren't too short. For after 2.6.12, we'll change udelay implementation to use the CPU timebase (which is always constant) instead like we do on ppc64 and thus get rid of all those problems.

My patch from a few weeks back (now in mainline), called "Cleanup skbs to prevent unregister_netdevice() hanging", can cause our TX timeout code to fire on machines with lots of VLANs (because it takes > 2 seconds between when we stop the queues and when we're finished stopping the connections). When that happens the TX timeout code freaks out and does a WARN_ON() because as far as it's concerned there shouldn't be a TX timeout happening, which is fair enough. I have a "proper" fix for this, which is to a) do refcounting on connections and b) implement a proper ack timer so we don't keep unacked skbs lying around for ever. But for 2.6.12 I propose just supressing the WARN_ON(). Users will still see the "NETDEV WATCHDOG" warning, but that's not nearly as bad as a WARN_ON() which users interpret as an Oops.
