Use comedi_dio_update_state() to handle the boilerplate code to update the subdevice s->state. These drivers always need to update the hardware in order to update the i/o configuration regardless of if the state has changed.

H Hartley Sweeten authored
The (*insn_bits) functions for DIO and DO subdevices typically use the subdevice 's->state' to hold the current state of the output channels. The 'insn' passed to these functions, INSN_BITS, specifies two parameters passed in the 'data'. data[0] = 'mask', the channels to update data[1] = 'bits', the new state for the channels Introduce a helper function to handle the boilerplate used to update the internal state. Note that the 'mask' is filtered by the 'chanmask' of the channels actually supported by the subdevice. This is used to protect any non-channel related bits that are stored in the subdevice state.

H Hartley Sweeten authored
The subdevice 'io_bits' is a bit mask of the i/o configuration for digital subdevices. '0' values indicate that a channel is configured as an input and '1' values that the channel is an output. Since the subdevice data is kzalloc()'d, all channels default as inputs. Modify __comedi_device_postconfig() so that 'io_bits' is correctly initialized for Digital Output subdevices. Remove all the unnecessary initializations of 's->io_bits' from the drivers. Also, remove the unnecessary initialization of the 's->state'.

Sorry. I thought that this would be a nice easy class to document fully. Turns out I was very wrong - I will have to research the Linux alarm and timer subsystem one day next week and try again.

I am beginning to understand the core concepts at play here. I am nowhere near finished with this class - However, it is better if I commit what I have documented so far tonight - That way, if I mess up tomorrow morning, I can just roll back to here. Sorry if this clutters things up. In the end, once *everything* is documented, it will make understanding the Android staging driver easier to understand as a programmer - Hopefully for both new developers and current ones.

Matt found that commit 27a7c642 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot. The reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA. While most disk partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics, Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1]. Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk or 0xFFFFFFFF. No tool in its right mind would set it to any value other than these.

Linus Torvalds authored
The LRU list changes interacted badly with our nr_dentry_unused accounting, and even worse with the new DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit logic. This introduces helper functions to make sure everything follows the proper dcache d_lru list rules: the dentry cache is complicated by the fact that some of the hotpaths don't even want to look at the LRU list at all, and the fact that we use the same list entry in the dentry for both the LRU list and for our temporary shrinking lists when removing things from the LRU. The helper functions temporarily have some extra sanity checking for the flag bits that have to match the current LRU state of the dentry. We'll remove that before the final 3.12 release, but considering how easy it is to get wrong, this first cleanup version has some very particular sanity checking.

When reading a single page with cifs_readpage(), we make a call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() which once done, asynchronously calls the completion function cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete(). This completion function unlocks the page once it has been populated from cache. The module then attempts to unlock the page a second time in cifs_readpage() which leads to warning messages. In case of a successful call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() we should skip the second unlock_page() since this will be called by the cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete() once the page has been populated by fscache. With the modifications to cifs_readpage_worker(), we will need to re-grab the page lock in cifs_write_begin(). The problem was first noticed when testing new fscache patches for cifs. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005737Signed-off-by: Sachin Prabhu <sprabhu@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>
