This fixes an oops that can occur if JFS is used as the root filesystem. Writes to a device node may cause a ->write_inode to be called during a read-only mount. JFS needs to check for NULL log in jfs_flush_journal.

Also, make sure NET_RX_DROP is returned if we did not accept the packet.

In implementations that use no socket locking, such as RAW sockets, once we queue the SKB to the socket another cpu can remove the SKB from the socket queue and free up the SKB making the skb->len access touch freed memory. Based upon a report from Burton Windle, kernel bugzilla #937

All the users of this function in the SCSI tree call it with the host lock held. With the new list traversal code, it was trying to take the lock again to traverse the list. Fix it to use the unlocked version of list traversal and modify the header comments to make it clear that the lock is expected to be held on calling it.

I've been looking at enforcing lifetime phases for SCSI devices (primarily to try to get the mid layer to offload as much of the device creation and hotplug pieces as it can). I've hijacked the sdev_state field of the struct scsi_device (formerly this was a bitmap, now it becomes an enumerated state). I've also begun adding references sdev_gendev into the code to pin the scsi_device---initially in the queue function, but possibly this should also be done in the scsi_command_get/put, the idea being to prevent scsi_device freeing while there's still device activity. The object phases I identified are: 1. SDEV_CREATED - we've just allocated the device. It may respond to internally generated commands, but not to user ones (the user should actually have no way to access a device in this state, but just in case). 2. SDEV_RUNNING - the device is fully operational 3. SDEV_CANCEL - The device is cleanly shutting down. It may respond to internally generated commands (for cancellation/recovery) only; all user commands are errored unless they have already been queued (QUEUE_FULL handling and the like). 4. SDEV_DEL - The device is gone. *all* commands are errored out. Ordinarily, the device should move through all four phases from creation to destruction, but moving SDEV_RUNNING->SDEV_DEL because of surprise ejection should work. It's starting to look like the online flag should be absorbed into this (offlined devices move essentially to SDEV_CANCEL and could be reactivated by moving to SDEV_RUNNING). I haven't altered the similar bitmap model that scsi_host has, although this too should probably move to an enumerated state model. I've tested this by physically yanking a module out from underneath a running filesystem with no ill effects (other than a slew of I/O errors). The obvious problem is that this kills possible user error handling, but we don't do any of that yet.

This patch is against scsi-bugfixes-2.6. I updated it based on comments received. It breaks up the reference count initialization for scsi_device and restores calling slave_destroy for all scsi_devices configured or not. I ran a small regression using the scsi_debug, aic7xxx, and qla2xxx driver. I also had a debug patch for more verbose kobject cleanup and patch for a badness check on atomic_dec going negative (previously provided by Linus). The object cleanup appears to being functioning correctly. I only saw previously reported badness output: - Synchronizing SCSI cache fails on cleanup. - scsi_debug.c missing release (I believe Doug posted a patch) - aic7xxx warnings on rmmod due to ahc_platform_free calling scsi_remove_host with ahc_list_lock held. This patch splits the scsi device struct device register into init and add. It also addresses memory leak issues of not calling slave_destroy on scsi_devices that are not configured in. Details: * Make scsi_device_dev_release extern for scsi_scan to use in alloc_sdev. * Move scsi_free_sdev code to scsi_device_dev_release. Have previous callers of scsi_free_sdev call slave_destroy plus put_device. * Changed name of scsi_device_register to scsi_sysfs_add_sdev to match host call and align with split struct device init. * Move sdev_gendev device and class init to scsi_alloc_sdev.

It turns out that the SiS irq routing logic doesn't go by chipset after all - it's just that some pirq entries are "legacy" numbers, while others are raw offsets into PCI config space (and the legacy numbers are more commonly used with the older chipsets, which explains the correlations). This simplifies the router code substantially.

A bug prevents the PnP layer from reserving some of the resources specified by the PnPBIOS. As a result some systems will have unpredicable (random crashes etc.) problems because of resource conflicts, especially when PCMCIA support is enabled. This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that the proper resource data is reserved.

It did not account for extension headers properly. If we get this length wrong, we do not determine if a multicast packet is MLDv1 vs. MLDv2 correctly.

for 2.6.0. The proper fix is to replace ia64_ni_syscall with sys_ni_syscall, but that would make the patch quite large, so we defer that till 2.6.1.

RFC2710 says: 1) MLD messages are never sent for multicast addresses whose scope is 0 (reserved) or 1 (node-local). 2) MLD messages ARE sent for multicast addresses whose scope is 2 (link-local), including Solicited-Node multicast addersses [ADDR-ARCH], except for the link-scope, all-nodes address (FF02::1). The current MLDv1 code does not send reports for link-scope addresses and doesn't restrict scope 0. This may break switches that snoop reports for determining which ports should receive particular addresses. Patch below.

This patch (against latest 2.6.0) is also waiting for almost a month. It's already in 2.4 but is still very much needed for 2.6. Old ifenslave versions (like the one in Red Hat 9) don't work with the bonding module in the latest 2.6 kernel without it. Amir

EBUS DMA fixes: - Add EBUS_DMA_FLAG_TCI_DISABLE that the client can set if it wants only to hear device interrupts, not DMA complete ones. - When initially resetting the EBUS DMA unit, put valid burst etc. encodings in the CSR register. Not doing this appears to leave the attached ISA device in a weird state. PCI FLOPPY fixes: - Do ebus_dma_enable() before ebus_dma_request() - In sun_pci_fd_set_dma_mode() do not forget to set the direction. - Set EBUS_DMA_FLAG_TCI_DISABLE in ebus_dma flags. - Make sure that in error paths sun_fdc/FCD1 will be -1 (invalid). Thanks to Soyoung Park for loaning her Ultra5 to me so I could fix this.
