platform_device_add_data() makes a copy of the data that is given to it, and thus the parameter can be const. This removes a warning when data from get_property() on powerpc is handed to platform_device_add_data(), as get_property() returns a const pointer. Signed-off-by:

Fix file and directory removal in debugfs. Add inotify support for file removal. The following scenario : create dir a create dir a/b cd a/b (some process goes in cwd a/b) rmdir a/b rmdir a fails due to the fact that "a" appears to be non empty. It is because the "b" dentry is not deleted from "a" and still in use. The same problem happens if "b" is a file. d_delete is nice enough to know when it needs to unhash and free the dentry if nothing else is using it or, if someone is using it, to remove it from the hash queues and wait for it to be deleted when it has no users. The nice side-effect of this fix is that it calls the file removal notification. Signed-off-by:

Correct dentry count to handle creation errors. This patch puts a dput at the file creation instead of the file removal : lookup_one_len already returns a dentry with reference count of 1. Then, the dget() in simple_mknod increments it when the dentry is associated with a file. In a scenario where simple_create or simple_mkdir returns an error, this would lead to an unwanted increment of the reference counter, therefore making file removal impossible. Signed-off-by:

Virtually index, physically tagged cache architectures can get away without cache flushing when forking. This patch adds a new cache flushing function flush_cache_dup_mm(struct mm_struct *) which for the moment I've implemented to do the same thing on all architectures except on MIPS where it's a no-op.

Provide a custom copy_user_highpage() to deal with aliasing issues on MIPS. It uses kmap_coherent() to map an user page for kernel with same color. Rewrite copy_to_user_page() and copy_from_user_page() with the new interfaces to avoid extra cache flushing. The main part of this patch was originally written by Ralf Baechle; Atushi Nemoto did the the debugging. Signed-off-by:

Problem: 1. There is a process containing two thread (T1 and T2). The thread T1 calls fork(). Then dup_mmap() function called on T1 context. static inline int dup_mmap(struct mm_struct *mm, struct mm_struct *oldmm) ... flush_cache_mm(current->mm); ... /* A */ (write-protect all Copy-On-Write pages) ... /* B */ flush_tlb_mm(current->mm); ... 2. When preemption happens between A and B (or on SMP kernel), the thread T2 can run and modify data on COW pages without page fault (modified data will stay in cache). 3. Some time after fork() completed, the thread T2 may cause a page fault by write-protect on a COW page. 4. Then data of the COW page will be copied to newly allocated physical page (copy_cow_page()). It reads data via kernel mapping. The kernel mapping can have different 'color' with user space mapping of the thread T2 (dcache aliasing). Therefore copy_cow_page() will copy stale data. Then the modified data in cache will be lost. In order to allow architecture code to deal with this problem allow architecture code to override copy_user_highpage() by defining __HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE in <asm/page.h>. The main part of this patch was originally written by Ralf Baechle; Atushi Nemoto did the the debugging. Signed-off-by:

This adds initial support to 8250-pci for the Korenix Jetcard PCI serial cards. The JC12xx cards are standard RS232-based serial cards utilising the Oxford 16C950 device. The JC14xx are RS422/RS485-based cards, but in order for these to be supported natively, we will need additional tweaks to the 8250 layers so we can specify some values for the 950's registers. Hence, these two entries are commented out. Signed-off-by:

The undocumented register BIOS uses for saving f_CNT seems to only be mapped to I/O space while all the other HPT3xx regs are dual-mapped. Looks like another HighPoint's dirty trick.

Fix the broken hotswap code: on HPT37x it caused RESET- to glitch when tristating the bus (the MISC control 3/6 and soft control 2 need to be written to in the certain order), and for HPT36x the obsolete HDIO_TRISTATE_HWIF ioctl() handler was called instead which treated the state argument wrong. Also, get rid of the soft control reg. 1 wtite to enable IDE interrupt -- this is done in init_hpt37x() already... Have been tested on HPT370 and 371N. Signed-off-by:

Save some space on the timing tables by introducing the separate transfer mode table in which the mode lookup is done to get the index into the timing table itself. Get rid of the rest of the obsolete/duplicate tables and use one set of tables for the whole HPT37x chip family like the HighPoint open-source drivers do. Documnent the different timing register layout for the HPT36x chip family (this is my guesswork based on the timing values). Have been tested and works fine on HPT370/302/371N. Signed-off-by:

Fix/remove bad/unused timing tables: HPT370/A 66 MHz tables weren't really needed (the chips are not UltraATA/133 capable and shouldn't support 66 MHz PCI) and had many modes over- and underclocked, HPT372 33 MHz table was in fact for 66 MHz and 50 MHz table missed UltraDMA mode 6, HPT374 33 MHz table was really for 50 MHz... (Actually, HPT370/A 33 MHz tables also have issues. e.g. HPT370 has PIO modes 0/1 overlocked.) There's also no need in the separate HPT374 tables because HPT372 timings should be the same (and those tables has UltraDMA mode 6 which HPT374 supports depending on HPT374_ALLOW_ATA133_6 #define)...

Fix serious problems with the HPT372N clock turnaround code: - the wrong ports were written to when called for the secondary channel; - it didn't serialize access to the channels; - turnaround shou;dn't be done on 66 MHz PCI; - caching the clock mode per-channel caused it to get out of sync with the actual register value. Additionally, avoid calibrating PLL twice (for each channel) as the second try results in a wrong PCI frequency and thus in the wrong timings. Make the driver deal with HPT302N and HPT371N correctly -- the clocking and (seemingly) a need for clock tunaround is the same as for HPT372N. HPT371/N chips have only one, secondary channel, so avoid touching their "pure virtual" primary channel, and disable it if the BIOS haven't done this already. Also, while at it, disable UltraATA/133 for HPT372 by default -- 50 MHz DPLL clock don't allow for this speed anyway. And remove the traces of the former bad patch that wasn't even applicable to this version of driver. Has been tested on HPT370/371N, unfortunately I don't have an instant access to the other chips...

calc_load() is called by timer interrupt to update avenrun[]. It currently calls nr_active() at each timer tick (HZ per second), while the update of avenrun[] is done only once every 5 seconds. (LOAD_FREQ=5 Hz) nr_active() is quite expensive on SMP machines, since it has to sum up nr_running and nr_uninterruptible of all online CPUS, bringing foreign dirty cache lines. This patch is an optimization of calc_load() so that nr_active() is called only if we need it. The use of unlikely() is welcome since the condition is true only once every 5*HZ time. Signed-off-by:

The nfsservctl system call isn't used but recent nfs-utils releases for exporting filesystems, and consequently the code that is uses - exp_export - has suffered some bitrot. Particular: - some newly added fields in 'struct svc_export' are being initialised properly. - the return value is now always -ENOMEM ... This patch fixes both these problems.

Pass the saved and current filehandles together into all the nfsd4 compound operations. I want a unified interface to these operations so we can just call them by pointer and throw out the huge switch statement. Also I'll eventually want a structure like this--that holds the state used during compound processing--for deferral. Signed-off-by:

There's no point deferring something just to immediately fail the deferral, especially now that we can do something more useful in the failure case by returning an error. Signed-off-by:

To avoid tying up server threads when nfsd makes an upcall (to mountd, to get export options, to idmapd, for nfsv4 name<->id mapping, etc.), we temporarily "drop" the request and save enough information so that we can revisit it later. Certain failures during the deferral process can cause us to really drop the request and never revisit it. This is often less than ideal, and is unacceptable in the NFSv4 case--rfc 3530 forbids the server from dropping a request without also closing the connection. As a first step, we modify the deferral code to return -ETIMEDOUT (which is translated to nfserr_jukebox in the v3 and v4 cases, and remains a drop in the v2 case). Signed-off-by:
