- make sure cd->buffer is always inside a page - previously if an entry fit perfectly in the remainder of a page, cd->buffer would end up pointing past the end of that page. - make sure num_entry_words is always correct, even on the error path.

This increases the DART table to use the full size. We allocate a full 16MB page anyway, so there's no difference in memory consumption. Thanks to Ben for spotting this, it was left over from debugging...

This fixes a bug in the iommu allocator that causes it to behave strangely when a fair size of the table is allocated. Thanks to Andrew Gallatin for finding this.

This patch from Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> fixes a bug in the current USB code that causes khubd to hang when a device is removed from the system, thereby preventing any future USB device changes (like adding or removing other devices) from happening. Both Andrew and I can easily duplicate this bug against the current -bk tree. It's not a perfect fix, but it works for now, and I will spend the next week working on restructuring the code so this is handled properly.

TiVo IDE support was never merged only this option was (in 2.4.0-test2), sigh.

filldir and getdents should check return values of put_user etc. The generic code has been fixed but the ppc64 compat versions have not.

This replaces six duplicated implementations of various quality of sys32_mount with a shiny new compat_sys_mount(). It's been tested on parisc64 and sparc64 and fixes a bug exposed by the latest revision of Debian's initscripts. Thanks to Arnd Bergmann and Dave Miller for their suggestions, fixes and testing. Please apply.

From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Remove include of <asm/setup.h> from cmdlinepart.c. This is not be needed for i386 (it builds fine with this patch), and ia64 doesn't supply a setup.h. asm/setup.h contains a hodge-podge of stuff with no real consistency between architectures. It appears to be included mainly by arch-specific drivers: acsi (Atari disks) amiflop (Amiga floppy) z2ram (ZorroII ram disk) amiserial (Amiga serial) ... and under arch-specific #ifdefs: fbcon (under __mc68000__ or CONFIG_APUS) fonts (ditto) logo (CONFIG_M68K) ...

From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> The problem is that we don't clear out the efi_time_t buffer before asking EFI to fill it in. EFI doesn't always write the entire buffer (in particular, the alarm time only supports one second resolution, so the nanosecond field is often untouched). The effect is that 'cat /proc/driver/efirtc' shows garbage in the nanoseconds part of the alarm time, and sometimes artifacts like bogus alarm date and junk after the actual end of the text.

From: James Morris <jmorris@redhat.com> This patch fixes a bug where the return value for a permission call is not checked. The bug was introduced when I added some code in the following changeset: <http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/diffs/security/selinux/hooks.c@1.19?nav=index.html|src/|src/security|src/security/selinux|hist/security/selinux/hooks.c> Code was added after this line: err = avc_has_perm(isec->sid, node_sid, SECCLASS_NODE, node_perm, NULL, &ad); without adding an explicit check of 'err', which was previously returned from the function rather than being checked. i.e. it would drop through to: out: return err; } With the new code added, err can (and typically would) be overwritten with a successful value, causing the permission check to not deny permission if needed. The intended denial would have been logged. The patch below fixes this problem.

From: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> This patch ensures that cpu_khz is adjusted on cpufreq notifications even when the tsc timesource is not in use. It fixes the mostly cosmetic issue when using the ACPI PM timesource of /proc/cpuinfo not being properly updated when cpu frequency was lowered.

-
Andrew Morton authored
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> The purpose of this is to speed up system calls on s390. I managed to squeeze about 65 cycles from each system call. This improved e.g. getpid() from 232 to 157 cycles. As a nice side-effect it simplified the uaccess functions considerably.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> s390 tape driver changes: - Prevent offline while device is in use. - Do not use bus_id string in debug feature messages. - Check for IS_ERR(irb) error conditions in interrupt handler. - Fix removing tape discipline modules.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> s390 network driver changes: - ctc/lcs/qeth: prevent a ccw-device to be grouped multiple times. - icuv: clear correct field in iucv_register_program if no userid is specified. - lcs: fix online/offline cycle again. - lcs: fix ungrouping of lcs group device. The channels of the lcs card should be offline afterwards. - lcs: don't do netif_stop_queue if no tx buffer is available, just return -EBUSY and drop the packets.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> dasd device driver changes: - After a state change interrupt restart all running i/o on queue and reset device timer. - Improve some debug messages. - Lower timeout of reserve/release/steal_lock to 2 seconds. - Fix BIODASDPSRD ioctl. - Replace ro_flag, use_diag_flag and disconnect_error_flag words by bits. - Use BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION ioctl instead of a call to delete_partition because delete_partition is not an exported function. Since dasd_destroy_partitions can't do blkdev_get because dasd_open would fail, keep the block device open as long as partitions exist. This in turn requires a different approach to the open vs. offline race.

This fixes a problem where cy_wait_until_sent() miscalculates (calculate -1 on a unsigned long) the "char_time" parameter passed to schedule_timeout(). Fix that by making it a signed long, and checking for negative value.

This helps vmware users running vmware on x86-64 - vmnet tries to set up a bridge. Emulate these ioctls. The bridge has more ioctls on its bridge device, but these don't seem to be needed here.

"acpi_wake_gpes_always_on" boot flag for old GPE behaviour
-
Len Brown authored
into intel.com:/home/lenb/src/linux-acpi-test-2.6.5

Len Brown authored
Implemented support for "wake" GPEs via interaction between GPEs and the _PRW methods. Every GPE that is pointed to by one or more _PRWs is identified as a WAKE GPE and by default will no longer be enabled at runtime. Previously, we were blindly enabling all GPEs with a corresponding _Lxx or _Exx method - but most of these turn out to be WAKE GPEs anyway. We believe this has been the cause of thousands of "spurious" GPEs on some systems. This new GPE behavior is can be reverted to the original behavior (enable ALL GPEs at runtime) via a runtime flag. Fixed a problem where aliased control methods could not access objects properly. The proper scope within the namespace was not initialized (transferred to the target of the aliased method) before executing the target method. Fixed a potential race condition on internal object deletion on the return object in AcpiEvaluateObject. Integrated a fix for resource descriptors where both _MEM and _MTP were being extracted instead of just _MEM. (i.e. bitmask was incorrectly too wide, 0x0F instead of 0x03.) Added a special case for ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT in AcpiUtGetNodeName, preventing a fault in some cases. Updated Notify() values for debug statements in evmisc.c Return proper status from AcpiUtMutexInitialize, not just simply AE_OK.
