Newer versions of hald tries to open it to call QUERYCAP. Due to the lack of a proper locking, it is possible to open the device before it finishes initialization. This patch adds a lock to avoid this risk, and to protect the list of em28xx devices. While here, remove the uneeded BKL lock. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

Now that we have a polling task for IR, there's a race condition, since IR can be polling while other operations are being doing. Also, we are now sharing the same urb_buf for both read and write control urb operations. So, we need a mutex. Thanks to Davin Heitmueller <devin.heitmueller@gmail.com> for warning me.

Before this patch, every register setup on em28xx were dynamically allocating a temporary buffer for control URB's to be handled. To avoid this ping-pong, use, instead a pre-allocated buffer. Also, be sure that read control URB's also use the buffer, instead of relying on a stack buffer. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

The format for reading the IR controller changed in firmware 1.20. It now provides the events on bulk endpoint 1 instead of using a control request. Support the new format, providing backward compatibility for users who might be using older firmware.

It is not safe to assume that the i2c gate will be open before issuing the command to power down the tuner. In fact, many demods only open the gate long enough to issue the tuning command. This fix allows power management to work properly for those tuners behind an i2c gate (in my case the problem was with the HVR-950Q) Signed-off-by: Devin Heitmueller <devin.heitmueller@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

Inotify watch removals suck violently. To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and ih->mutex. That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount. We can *NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially outliving its superblock. Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until we are done. Cleanup is just deactivate_super(). However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore? We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining for fjords. That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e. the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires ->s_umount. We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable. OTOH, having grabbed ->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e. that ->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with inotify_umount_inodes(). So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong. We had to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount. So the watch could've been gone already. That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find() and compare its result with our pointer. If they match, we either have the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once, the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd at the same address. That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(), but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that. Still, "new one got created" is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone, whatever's more convenient. So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as "grab it and kill it" check. If it's been our original watch, we are fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its superblock won't be going away. And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire concept of inotify to start with.

A common reason for device drivers to implement their own printk macros is the lack of a printk prefix with the standard pr_xyz macros. Introduce a pr_fmt() macro that is applied for every pr_xyz macro to the format string. The most common use of the pr_fmt macro would be to add the name of the device driver to all pr_xyz messages in a source file.

This reverts commit e51af663, which was wrongly hoovered up and submitted about a month after a better fix had already been merged. The better fix is commit cbda1ba8 ("PCI/iommu: blacklist DMAR on Intel G31/G33 chipsets"), where we do this blacklisting based on the DMI identification for the offending motherboard, since sometimes this chipset (or at least a chipset with the same PCI ID) apparently _does_ actually have an IOMMU.

dpt_i2o.c::adpt_i2o_to_scsi() reads the value at (reply+5) which should contain the length in bytes of the transferred data. This would be correct if reply was a u32 *. However it is a void * here, so we need to read the value at (reply+20) instead. The value at (reply+5) is usually 0xff0000, which is apparently 'large enough' and didn't cause any trouble until 2.6.27 where commit 427e59f0 Author: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Date: Sat Mar 8 18:24:17 2008 -0600 [SCSI] make use of the residue value caused this to become visible through e.g. iostat -x .

Currently libata uses four methods to detect device presence. 1. PHY status if available. 2. TF register R/W test (only promotes presence, never demotes) 3. device signature after reset 4. IDENTIFY failure detection in SFF state machine Combination of the above works well in most cases but recently there have been a few reports where a phantom device causes unnecessary delay during probe. In both cases, PHY status wasn't available. In one case, it passed #2 and #3 and failed IDENTIFY with ATA_ERR which didn't qualify as #4. The other failed #2 but as it passed #3 and #4, it still caused failure. In both cases, phantom device reported diagnostic failure, so these cases can be safely worked around by considering any !ATA_DRQ IDENTIFY failure as NODEV_HINT if diagnostic failure is set.
