Currently qe_bd_t is used in the macro call -- dma_unmap_single, which is a no-op on PPC32, thus error is hidden today. Starting with 2.6.24, macro will be replaced by the empty static function, and erroneous use of qe_bd_t will trigger compilation error.

A crash upon booting that is caused by bcm43xx has been reported [1] and found to be due to a work queue being reinitialized while work on that queue is still pending. This fix modifies the shutdown of work queues and prevents periodic work from being requeued during shutdown. With this patch, no more crashes on reboot were observed by the original reporter. I do not get that particular failure on my system; however, when running a large number of ifdown/ifup sequences, my system would kernel panic with the 'caps lock' light blinking at roughly a 1 Hz rate. In addition, there were infrequent failures in the firmware that resulted in 'IRQ READY TIMEOUT' errors. With this patch, no more of the first type of failure occur, and incidence of the second type is greatly reduced.

This patch solves a problem that the spidernet driver sometimes fails to handle IRQ. The problem happens because, - In Cell architecture, interrupts may arrive at an interrupt controller, even if they are masked by the setting on registers of devices. It happens when interrupt packets are sent just before the interrupts are masked. - spidernet interrupt handler compares interrupt reasons with interrupt masks, so when such interrupts occurs, spidernet interrupt handler returns IRQ_NONE. - When all of interrupt handler return IRQ_NONE, linux kernel disables the IRQ and it no longer delivers interrupts to the interrupt handlers. spidernet doesn't work after above sequence, because it can't receive interrupts. This patch changes spidernet interrupt handler that it compares interrupt reason with SPIDER_NET_INTX_MASK_VALUE.

Introduces a module parameter to decide whether the physical port link state is propagated to the network stack or not. It makes sense not to take the physical port state into account on machines with more logical partitions that communicate with each other. This is always possible no matter what the physical port state is. Thus eHEA can be considered as a switch there.

One of the very first things lguest_init() does is a memcpy. On Athlon/Duron/K7 or CyrixIII/VIA-C3 or Geode GX/LX, this tries to use MMX. memcpy -> _mmx_memcpy -> kernel_fpu_begin -> clts -> paravirt_ops.clts But we haven't set paravirt_ops.clts yet, so we do the native version and crash. The simplest solution is to use __memcpy. Thanks to Michael Rasenberger for the bug report.

With the I/O space rewrite by BenH, the legacy_serial serial_dev_init() initcall is now called before I/O space is setup, but it's dependent on it being available. Since there's no way to make dependencies between initcalls, we'll just have to move it to device_initcall(). Yes, it's suboptimal but I'm not aware of any better solution at this time, and it fixes a regression from 2.6.22.

Commit f629307c introduced uses of kernel_termios_to_user_termios_1 and user_termios_to_kernel_termios_1 on all architectures. However, powerpc, s390, avr32 and frv don't currently define those functions since their termios struct didn't need to be changed when the arbitrary baud rate stuff was added, and thus the kernel won't currently build on those architectures. This adds definitions of kernel_termios_to_user_termios_1 and user_termios_to_kernel_termios_1 to include/asm-generic/termios.h which are identical to kernel_termios_to_user_termios and user_termios_to_kernel_termios respectively. The definitions are the same because the "old" termios and "new" termios are in fact the same on these architectures (which are the same ones that use asm-generic/termios.h).

Intel framebuffer mis-calculated pixel clocks. The pixel clock (and thus both H and V sync) will be slower than requested, so if you set the minimum allowed the display may not sync. In case of really old CRT display it could theoretically damage it. I'm using it with PAL TV (using RGB input - SCART connector) and the bug prevented it from working at all (TV requirements are more strict and made the bug visible).

This was posted on Aug 28 and fixes an issue that could cause troubles when slab caches >=128k are created. http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=118798149918424&w=2 Currently we simply add the debug flags unconditional when checking for a matching slab. This creates issues for sysfs processing when slabs exist that are exempt from debugging due to their huge size or because only a subset of slabs was selected for debugging. We need to only add the flags if kmem_cache_open() would also add them. Create a function to calculate the flags that would be set if the cache would be opened and use that function to determine the flags before looking for a compatible slab.

Revert commit 656dad31 Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Date: Sat Feb 10 01:46:36 2007 -0800 [PATCH] highmem: catch illegal nesting Catch illegally nested kmap_atomic()s even if the page that is mapped by the 'inner' instance is from lowmem. This avoids spuriously zapped kmap-atomic ptes and turns hard to find crashes into clear asserts at the bug site. Problem is, a get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL) from interrupt context will trigger this check if non-irq code on this CPU holds a KM_USER0 mapping. But that get_zeroed_page() will never be altering the kmap slot anyway due to the GFP_KERNEL.

The inode->i_flock list contains the leases, flocks and posix locks in the specified order. However, the flocks are added in the head of this list thus hiding the leases from F_GETLEASE command, from time_out_leases() and other code that expects the leases to come first. The following example will demonstrate this: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/file.h> static void show_lease(int fd) { int res; res = fcntl(fd, F_GETLEASE); switch (res) { case F_RDLCK: printf("Read lease\n"); break; case F_WRLCK: printf("Write lease\n"); break; case F_UNLCK: printf("No leases\n"); break; default: printf("Some shit\n"); break; } } int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd, res; fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY); if (fd == -1) { perror("Can't open file"); return 1; } res = fcntl(fd, F_SETLEASE, F_WRLCK); if (res == -1) { perror("Can't set lease"); return 1; } show_lease(fd); if (flock(fd, LOCK_SH) == -1) { perror("Can't flock shared"); return 1; } show_lease(fd); return 0; } The first call to show_lease() will show the write lease set, but the second will show no leases. Fix the flock adding so that the leases always stay in the head of this list. Found during making the flocks pid-namespaces aware. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Acked-by: "J.

Taneli Vähäkangas <vahakang@cs.helsinki.fi> reported that commit 786d7e16 aka "Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries" broke SBCL + SLIME combo. The old code in do_select() used DEFAULT_POLLMASK, if couldn't find ->poll handler. The new code makes ->poll always there and returns 0 by default, which is not correct. Return DEFAULT_POLLMASK instead. Steps to reproduce: install emacs, SBCL, SLIME emacs M-x slime in *inferior-lisp* buffer [watch it doing "Connecting to Swank on port X.."] Please, apply before 2.6.23. P.S.: why SBCL can't just read(2) /proc/cpuinfo is a mystery.

The semantics of call_usermodehelper_pipe() used to be that it would fork the helper, and wait for the kernel thread to be started. This was implemented by setting sub_info.wait to 0 (implicitly), and doing a wait_for_completion(). As part of the cleanup done in 0ab4dc92, call_usermodehelper_pipe() was changed to pass 1 as the value for wait to call_usermodehelper_exec(). This is equivalent to setting sub_info.wait to 1, which is a change from the previous behaviour. Using 1 instead of 0 causes __call_usermodehelper() to start the kernel thread running wait_for_helper(), rather than directly calling ____call_usermodehelper(). The end result is that the calling kernel code blocks until the user mode helper finishes. As the helper is expecting input on stdin, and now no one is writing anything, everything locks up (observed in do_coredump). The fix is to change the 1 to UMH_WAIT_EXEC (aka 0), indicating that we want to wait for the kernel thread to be started, but not for the helper to finish.

The futex list traversal on the compat side appears to have a bug. It's loop termination condition compares: while (compat_ptr(uentry) != &head->list) But that can't be right because "uentry" has the special "pi" indicator bit still potentially set at bit 0. This is cleared by fetch_robust_entry() into the "entry" return value. What this seems to mean is that the list won't terminate when list iteration gets back to the the head. And we'll also process the list head like a normal entry, which could cause all kinds of problems. So we should check for equality with "entry". That pointer is of the non-compat type so we have to do a little casting to keep the compiler and sparse happy. The same problem can in theory occur with the 'pending' variable, although that has not been reported from users so far. Based on the original patch from David Miller.
