The HPT366 code is broken - it tries to set the interface to too high a speed, which leads to error messages at boot time and/or to data corruption. The typical effect at boot time is hde: set_drive_speed_status: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hde: set_drive_speed_status: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError } Fixed thus.

When a socket has a request ready it notifies a server thread. When the thread has 'received' the request it calls svc_sock_received to confirm the fact. In some cases, svc_sock_received would be called an extra time and this could lead to linked-list corruption and bad problems.

raid5 tries to honour RWA_MASK, but messes it up and can return bad data. Just ignore RAW_MASK for now.

Without these changes an x86-64 NUMA kernel won't boot in many configurations. The main change is the improved IOMMU code which supports merging of mappings and has various bugfixes. - Update defconfig - Use argument ptregs in 32bit elf_core_copy_task_fpregs - Harden aperture fixup code: read aperture from the AGP bridge if needed, better error checking. - Support nmi_watchdog=panic to panic on watchdog trigger - IOMMU: Support panic on IOMMU overflow (iommu=panic) - IOMMU: Force SAC for mappings >40bits when iommu=force is active (this can potentially give better performance) - IOMMU: Cache northbridges for faster TLB flush - IOMMU: Fix SMP race in TLB flush - IOMMU: Merge pci_alloc_consistent and pci_map_single - IOMMU: Clean up leak tracing - IOMMU: Rewrite pci_map_sg, support merging of mappings On overflow fall back to piece-by-piece mapping. - IOMMU: Tell block layer to assume merging when iommu force is active (this gives better performance with MTP fusion, drawback is that the overflow/fragmentation handling of the IOMMU area is still a big dubious with that) - Fix/clean up per cpu data - Add 64bit clean time(2) - Export cpu_callout_map for IPv6 - Handle nodes with no own memory in NUMA discovery. This fixes boot on various newer Opteron motherboards where the memory is only connected to a single CPU. - Fix fallback path for failed NUMA discovery. numnodes has to be reset. - Check for enabled nodes in NUMA discovery (Eric Biederman) - Remove NUMA emunodes support. Has badly bitrotted. - Add __clear_bit_string for IOMMU code - Add new 32bit system calls to ia32_unistd.h - Remove duplicate default_do_nmi prototype - Make PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS dependent on no_iommu - Fix padding length of siginfo_t to match glibc - More pci direct access functions.

This patch fixes a kernel lockup with 2.6.0-test2 when the trident.c OSS driver is loaded and the driver attempts to initialize the card. The problem is that in ali_ac97_get() we lock the card->lock spinlock, but never release it on the good path, only on the error path. This patch adds the missing spin_unlock_irqrestore(). This bug snuck in in a 2.4 sync from Alan, and 2.4 appears to suffer from the same problem. A patch for that will be send to Marcelo momentarily.

NFS with 2.5.75 as both client and server is broken with GNU Make. The nanosecond field of timestamps of newly touched files is often negative on the client, which is probably why Make fails. The value also bears no relation to the file's nanosecond field on the server. The culprit is htons() used where htonl() should be: - *p++ = htonl((u32) time->tv_sec); *p++ = htons(time->tv_nsec); + *p++ = htonl((u32) time->tv_sec); *p++ = htonl(time->tv_nsec); The rest of this patch corrects nfsd to use microseconds in NFSv2, not nanoseconds. (The client already gets this right, but I have optimised it slightly to avoid division when possible).

The change to detach the threads in zap_other_threads() broke the case where the non-thread-group-leader is the cause of de_thread(). In this case the group leader will be detached and freed before switch_exec_pids() is complete and invalid data will be used. This is a patch that makes sure that the group leader does not get detached and reaped.

This is a cleaner fix that avoids having two separate unlock operations.

This disables the local APIC before reboot. This fixes BIOS reboot problems reported by a few people. disable_local_APIC() now checks if detect_init_APIC() enabled the local APIC via the APIC_BASE MSR, and if so it now disables APIC_BASE. Previously we would leave APIC_BASE enabled, and that made some BIOSen unhappy. The SMP reboot code calls disable_local_APIC(). On SMP HW there is no change since detect_init_APIC() isn't called and APIC_BASE isn't enabled by us. An SMP kernel on UP HW behaves just like an UP_APIC kernel, so it disables APIC_BASE if we enabled it at boot. The UP_APIC disable-before-suspend code is simplified since the existing code to disable APIC_BASE is moved into disable_local_APIC(). (Felix Kühling originally reported the BIOS reboot problem. This is a fixed-up version of his preliminary patch.)

if ki_users = 1, we don't do the wakeup, which seems wrong.
