show_stack() was calling kzalloc() to allocate a struct pt_regs. This meant that *really* early stack dumps would cause a null pointer dereference. x86_64 allocates its pt_regs on the stack, so do the same. Kyle actually committed this exact patch to CVS on Wed Jul 26 14:32:39 2006 UTC, and never moved it across to git. Bad Kyle.

Al Viro did this for x86-64 and reduced the number of dependencies on sched.h significantly. We had a couple of files which were relying on uaccess.h pulling in sched.h, so they need explicit dependencies added.

parisc and parisc64 seem to name sections a little differently from other targets. parisc64 gives spurious warnings like: WARNING: drivers/net/dummy.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:dummy_setup from .data.rel.ro between '.LC1' (at offset 0x0) and '.LC6' and parisc gives spurious warnings like: WARNING: drivers/net/dummy.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:dummy_setup from .rodata.cst4 between '.LC1' (at offset 0x0) and '.LC6' Given the other comments in modpost.c, it seems that the best solution is to move rodata down to the 'match at start of name' section and add .data.rel.ro to the 'match entire name' section.

When calling into the EFI firmware, the parameters need to be passed on the stack. The recent change to use -mregparm=3 breaks x86 EFI support. This patch is needed to allow the new Intel-based Macs to suspend to ram (efi.get_time is called during the suspend phase).

This patch fixes up ia64 kexec support for HP rx2620 hardware. It does this by skipping migration of already disabled irqs. This is most likely a problem on other ia64 platforms as well, but I've only been able to reproduce it on one machine so far. The full story is that handle_bad_irq() gets invoked before starting the new kernel without this patch. This seems to happen when fixup_irqs() calls generic_handle_irq() on already migrated (and disabled) irqs. So by avoiding migration of disabled irqs we stay away of handle_bad_irq(). The code has been tested on three different ia64 machines, all with good results. It is possible to trigger the same bug by offlining a processor using echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online.

However, aio_complete() called from I/O interrupt can potentially call put_ioctx with last ref count on ioctx and triggers bug. It is simply incorrect to perform ioctx freeing from aio_complete. The bug is trigger-able from a race between io_destroy() and aio_complete(). A possible scenario: cpu0 cpu1 io_destroy aio_complete wait_for_all_aios { __aio_put_req ... ctx->reqs_active--; if (!ctx->reqs_active) return; } ... put_ioctx(ioctx) put_ioctx(ctx); __put_ioctx bam! Bug trigger! The real problem is that the condition check of ctx->reqs_active in wait_for_all_aios() is incorrect that access to reqs_active is not being properly protected by spin lock. This patch adds that protective spin lock, and at the same time removes all duplicate ref counting for each kiocb as reqs_active is already used as a ref count for each active ioctx. This also ensures that buggy call to flush_workqueue() in softirq context is eliminated.

sd_probe() calls class_device_add() even before initializing the sdkp->device variable. class_device_add() eventually results in the user mode udev program to be called. udev program can read the the allow_restart attribute of the newly created scsi device. This is resulting in a crash as the show function for allow_restart (i.e sd_show_allow_restart) returns the attribute value by reading the sdkp->device->allow_restart variable. As the sdkp->device is not initialized before calling the user mode hotplug helper, this results in a crash. The patch below solves it by calling class_device_add() only after the necessary fields in the scsi_disk structure are initialized properly.

For all JMicrons except for 361 and 368, AHCI mode enable bits in the Control(1) should be set. This used to be done in both ahci and pata_jmicron but while moving programming to PCI quirk, it was removed from ahci part while still left in pata_jmicron. The implemented JMicron PCI quirk was incorrect in that it didn't program AHCI mode enable bits. If pata_jmicron is loaded first and programs those bits, the ahci ports work; otherwise, ahci device detection fails miserably. This patch makes JMicron PCI quirk clear SATA IDE mode bits and set AHCI mode bits and remove the respective part from pata_jmicron. Tested on JMB361, 363 and 368.

This reverts commit e4f0ae0e. It's not wrong, but it's not right either, and everybody seems to agree that the right fix is probably to do the ccr3 write after the ccr4 one (and that we also should clean it up a bit). And after that we need to really validate that all the bits that we write to ccr4 actually do work. The old 2.6.19 code was insane, and basically didn't change ccr4 at all (even though it certainly looks like it was the *intent* to do so). So let's revert the change that may fix things, just because it's not what was actually ever tested when the code was written, even if it _was_ the intent. There's a discussion on http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/9/63 that was started by the patch that now gets reverted, and that discussion may well contain the proper long-term fix.
