Make sure we that completion is the final action we take; prior to this change, another CPU may have changed ap->pio_task_state before we tested it a final time. Spotted by, and original patch by Albert Lee @ IBM. Also includes a minor optimization: eliminate a ton of unnecessary queue_work() calls, simply by jumping to the beginning of the FSM function ata_pio_task().

Reported by: walt <wa1ter@myrealbox.com> "I routinely switch the console font during bootup to 8x8 so I can get 50 lines per screen. Until 09 Sept, just changing to the small font automatically gave me all 50 lines -- but now I'm only getting 25 lines even with the small font. The bottom half of the screen displays the text that already scrolled off the top." This bug is due to an erroneous check in the recently added hook, vgacon_resize(). It checks the new height against the original number of rows of the console. Because the original number of rows depends on both the scanline and the font height, check it instead against the scanline/fontheight.

As noted by Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>: "A recent patch changed the way the LPAR bit is checked during early boot. This resulted in a polarity change in a conditional branch without changing the branch, causing at least some legacy machines to not boot." This fixes it.

Several implementations were essentialy a common piece of C code using the cmpxchg() macro. Put the implementation in one spot that everyone can share, and convert sparc64 over to using this. Alpha is the lone arch-specific implementation, which codes up a special fast path for the common case in order to avoid GP reloading which a pure C version would require. Signed-off-by: David S.

ip_vs_ftp when loaded can create NAT connections with unknown client port for passive FTP. For such expectations we lookup with cport=0 on incoming packet but it matches the format of the persistence templates causing packets to other persistent virtual servers to be forwarded to real server without creating connection. Later the reply packets are treated as foreign and not SNAT-ed. This patch changes the connection lookup for packets from clients: * introduce IP_VS_CONN_F_TEMPLATE connection flag to mark the connection as template * create new connection lookup function just for templates - ip_vs_ct_in_get * make sure ip_vs_conn_in_get hits only connections with IP_VS_CONN_F_NO_CPORT flag set when s_port is 0. By this way we avoid returning template when looking for cport=0 (ftp) Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The problem is that the SACK fragmenting code may incorrectly call tcp_fragment() with a length larger than the skb->len. This happens when the skb on the transmit queue completely falls to the LHS of the SACK. And add a BUG() check to tcp_fragment() so we can spot this kind of error more quickly in the future.

Commit 66759a01 introduced the fix for time ticking too fast on some boards by disabling one of the doubly connected timer pins on ATI boards. However, it ends up being _much_ too broad a brush, and that just makes some other ATI boards not work at all since they now have no timer source. So disable the automatic ATI southbridge detection, and just rely on people who see this problem disabling it by hand with the option "disable_timer_pin_1" on the kernel command line. Maybe somebody can figure out the proper tests at a later date. Acked-by: Peter Osterlund <petero2@telia.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Its possible that we can write to the hvc_console tty as soon it is registered. Recently this started happening due to (what looks like) a change to the hotplug code. Unfortunately at this stage we have not started the khvcd kernel thread and oops. The solution is to start the kernel thread before registering the tty.

While doing an allyesconfig build, I noticed that the commit commit 8cdfd251 Author: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Date: Wed Sep 7 14:08:11 2005 +0200 [ALSA] Remove superfluous PCI ID definitions broke the RME32 and RME96 drivers, since the PCI IDs they use seem to have changed names. Here's a patch to fix this -- compile tested only, since I have no idea what the hardware even is. Fix the build of the RME32 and RME96 drivers by having them use the PCI_DEVICE_ID_RME_xxx names defined in <linux/pci_ids.h> instead of the PCI_DEVICE_ID_xxx names that they used to define themselves. Also fix the typo in the id PCI_DEVICE_IDRME__DIGI96_8_PAD_OR_PST so the name is PCI_DEVICE_ID_RME_DIGI96_8_PAD_OR_PST.

Noted by David Miller: "The bug is that free_fd_array() takes a "num" argument, but when calling it from __free_fdtable() we're instead passing in the size in bytes (ie. "num * sizeof(struct file *)")." Yes it is a bug. I think I messed it up while merging newer changes with an older version where I was using size in bytes to optimize.

With the new changes that we made in the initialization of the slab allocator, we first setup the cache from which array caches are allocated, and then the cache, from which kmem_list3's are allocated. Now if the array cache comes from a cache in which objsize > 32, (in this instance size-64) then, first size-64 cache will be allocated and then the size-128 (if this is the cache from which kmem_list3's are going to be allocated). So with these new changes, we are not guaranteed that we will be initializing the malloc_sizes array in a serialized order. Thus there is a bug in __find_general_cachep, as we are checking whether the first cache_sizes ptr is NULL. This is replaced by checking whether the array-cache cache is initialized. Attached is a patch which does that. Boots fine on a x86-64, with DEBUG_SPIN, DEBUG_SLAB, and preempt. Attached is a patch which does that.

In some cases, especially on modern laptops with a lot of PCI and cardbus bridges, we're unable to assign correct secondary/subordinate bus numbers to all cardbus bridges due to BIOS limitations unless we are using "pci=assign-busses" boot option. So some cardbus controllers may not have attached subordinate pci_bus structure, and yenta driver must cope with it - just ignore such cardbus bridges.

Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants). These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't. So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into Committed_AS each time they're run. But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them, it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved. The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set. And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking. Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory: give it a less misleading name later on.

It turns out that the BUG_ON() in fs/exec.c: de_thread() is unreliable and can trigger due to the test itself being racy. de_thread() does while (atomic_read(&sig->count) > count) { } ..... ..... BUG_ON(!thread_group_empty(current)); but release_task does write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock) __exit_signal (this is where atomic_dec(&sig->count) is run) __exit_sighand __unhash_process takes write lock on tasklist_lock remove itself out of PIDTYPE_TGID list write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock) so there's a clear (although small) window between the atomic_dec(&sig->count) and the actual PIDTYPE_TGID unhashing of the thread. And actually there is no need for all threads to have exited at this point, so we simply kill the BUG_ON. Big thanks to Marc Lehmann who provided the test-case.

Certain (SGI?) ia64 boxes object to having their PCI BARs restored unless absolutely necessary. This patch restricts calling pci_restore_bars from pci_set_power_state unless the current state is PCI_UNKNOWN, the actual (i.e. physical) state of the device is PCI_D3hot, and the device indicates that it will lose its configuration when transitioning to PCI_D0.
