The PNP framework doesn't export "pnp_bus_type", which is an unfortunate exception to the policy followed by pretty much every other bus. I noticed this when I had to find a device in order to provide its platform_data. Note that per advice from Arjan, the "export" scope has been been minimized to avoid the hundred-plus bytes needed to support access from modules. In this case, the symbol is only needed by statically linked kernel code that lives outside the drivers/pnp directory. Signed-off-by:

This one was pointed out on the MOKB site: http://kernelfun.blogspot.com/2006/11/mokb-09-11-2006-linux-26x-ext2checkpage.html If a directory's i_size is corrupted, ext2_find_entry() will keep processing pages until the i_size is reached, even if there are no more blocks associated with the directory inode. This patch puts in some minimal sanity-checking so that we don't keep checking pages (and issuing errors) if we know there can be no more data to read, based on the block count of the directory inode. This is somewhat similar in approach to the ext3 patch I sent earlier this year. Signed-off-by:

Mathieu originally needed to add this for tracing Xen, but it's something that's needed for any application that can be tracing while cpus are added. unplug isn't supported by this patch. The thought was that at minumum a new buffer needs to be added when a cpu comes up, but it wasn't worth the effort to remove buffers on cpu down since they'd be freed soon anyway when the channel was closed.

Userspace should be worrying about userspace, so having the socket.h and stat.h pollute the namespace in the non-glibc case is wrong and pretty much prevents any other libc from utilizing these headers sanely unless they set up the __GLIBC__ define themselves (which sucks) Cc: "David S.

The line discipline numbers N_* are currently defined for each architecture individually, but (except for a seeming mistake) identically, in asm/termios.h. There is no obvious reason why these numbers should be architecture specific, nor any apparent relationship with the termios structure. The total number of these, NR_LDISCS, is defined in linux/tty.h anyway. So I propose the following patch which moves the definitions of the individual line disciplines to linux/tty.h too. Three of these numbers (N_MASC, N_PROFIBUS_FDL, and N_SMSBLOCK) are unused in the current kernel, but the patch still keeps the complete set in case there are plans to use them yet. Signed-off-by:

When igrab() is calling __iget() on an inode it should check if clear_inode() has been called on the inode already. Otherwise there is a race window between clear_inode() and destroy_inode() where igrab() calls __iget() which leads to already free inodes on the inode lists. Signed-off-by:

- returns after DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON added in 3 places - debug_locks checking after lookup_chain_cache() added in __lock_acquire() - locking for testing and changing global variable max_lockdep_depth added in __lock_acquire() From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> My __acquire_lock() cleanup introduced a locking bug: on SMP systems we'd release a non-owned graph lock. Fix this by moving the graph unlock back, and by leaving the max_lockdep_depth variable update possibly racy. (we dont care, it's just statistics) Also add some minimal debugging code to graph_unlock()/graph_lock(), which caught this locking bug. Signed-off-by:

I noticed cache misses in touch_atime() that can be avoided if we keep mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark in a different cache line than mnt_flags (mostly read) mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark are modified each time a file is opened/closed in a file system. touch_atime() is called each time a file is read, and generally needs to read mnt_flags. Other fields of struct vfsmount are mostly read so I chose to move mnt_count & mnt_expiry_mark at the end of struct vfsmount. And adding a comment so that nobody tries to re-arrange fields to fill the holes :) On 64bits platforms, the new offsetof(mnt_count) is 0xC0 On 32bits platforms, it is 0x60, so I didnot add a ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp because it would have a too big impact on the size of this object (in particular if CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT=7) Signed-off-by:

Extend usr/gen_init_cpio.c "file" entry, adding support for hard links. Previous format: file <name> <location> <mode> <uid> <gid> New format: file <name> <location> <mode> <uid> <gid> [<hard links>] The hard links specification is optional, keeping the previous behaviour. All hard links are defined sequentially in the resulting cpio and the file data is present only in the last link. This is the behaviour of GNU's cpio and is supported by the kernel initramfs extractor. Signed-off-by:

The file init/initramfs.c is always compiled and linked in the kernel vmlinux even when BLK_DEV_RAM and BLK_DEV_INITRD are disabled and the system isn't using any form of an initramfs or initrd. In this situation the code is only used to unpack a (static) default initial rootfilesystem. The current init/initramfs.c code. usr/initramfs_data.o compiles to a size of ~15 kbytes. Disabling BLK_DEV_RAM and BLK_DEV_INTRD shrinks the kernel code size with ~60 Kbytes. This patch avoids compiling in the code and data for initramfs support if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not defined. Instead of the initramfs code and data it uses a small routine in init/noinitramfs.c to setup an initial static default environment for mounting a rootfilesystem later on in the kernel initialisation process. The new code is: 164 bytes of size. The patch is separated in two parts: 1) doesn't compile initramfs code when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set 2) changing all plaforms vmlinux.lds.S files to not reserve an area of PAGE_SIZE when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set.

currently it's 1) if *oldlenp == 0, don't writeback anything 2) if *oldlenp >= table->maxlen, don't writeback more than table->maxlen bytes and rewrite *oldlenp don't look at underlying type granularity 3) if 0 < *oldlenp < table->maxlen, *cough* string sysctls don't writeback more than *oldlenp bytes. OK, that's because sizeof(char) == 1 int sysctls writeback anything in (0, table->maxlen] range Though accept integers divisible by sizeof(int) for writing. sysctl_jiffies and sysctl_ms_jiffies don't writeback anything but sizeof(int), which violates 1) and 2). So, make sysctl_jiffies and sysctl_ms_jiffies accept a) *oldlenp == 0, not doing writeback b) *oldlenp >= sizeof(int), writing one integer. -EINVAL still returned for *oldlenp == 1, 2, 3.

This does several things. - It moves looking up of the current foreground console into process context where we can safely take the semaphore that protects this operation. - It uses the new flavor of work queue processing. - This generates a factor of do_SAK, __do_SAK that runs immediately. - This calls __do_SAK with the console semaphore held ensuring nothing else happens to the console while we process the SAK operation. - With the console SAK processing moved into process context this patch removes the xchg operations that I used to attempt to attomically update struct pid, because of the strange locking used in the SAK processing. With SAK using the normal console semaphore nothing special is needed. Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Signed-off-by:
