This adds freefall handling to hp_accel driver. According to HP, it should just work, without us having to set the chip up by hand. hpfall.c is example .c program that parks the disk when accelerometer detects free fall. It should work; for now, it uses fixed 20seconds protection period.

YAMAMOTO-san noticed that task_dirty_inc doesn't seem to be called properly for cases where set_page_dirty is not used to dirty a page (eg. mark_buffer_dirty). Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is called. It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for __set_page_dirty_no_writeback. So rather than increment it in a set_page_dirty wrapper, move it down to exactly where the dirty page accounting stats are incremented.

As requested by Michael, add a missing check for valid flags in timerfd_settime(), and make it return EINVAL in case some extra bits are set. Michael said: If this is to be any use to userland apps that want to check flag support (perhaps it is too late already), then the sooner we get it into the kernel the better: 2.6.29 would be good; earlier stables as well would be even better.

Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread. To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to the offset user space wanted.

Paul Turner authored
Separate FMODE_PREAD and FMODE_PWRITE into separate flags to reflect the reality that the read and write paths may have independent restrictions. A git grep verifies that these flags are always cleared together so this new behavior will only apply to interfaces that change to clear flags individually. This is required for "seq_file: properly cope with pread", a post-2.6.25 regression fix.

We have get_vm_area_caller() and __get_vm_area() but not __get_vm_area_caller() On powerpc, I use __get_vm_area() to separate the ranges of addresses given to vmalloc vs. ioremap (various good reasons for that) so in order to be able to implement the new caller tracking in /proc/vmallocinfo, I need a "_caller" variant of it.

If a USB PCI controller is behind a cardbus bridge, we are trying to restore its configuration registers too early, before the cardbus bridge is operational. To fix this, call pci_restore_state() from usb_hcd_pci_resume() and remove usb_hcd_pci_resume_early() which is no longer necessary (the configuration spaces of USB controllers that are not behind cardbus bridges will be restored by the PCI PM core with interrupts disabled anyway). This patch fixes the regression from 2.6.28 tracked as http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12659 [ Side note: the proper long-term fix is probably to just force the unplug event at suspend time instead of doing a plug/unplug at resume time, but this patch is fine regardless - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

This is the cause of the DMA faults and disk corruption that people have been seeing. Some chipsets neglect to report the RWBF "capability" -- the flag which says that we need to flush the chipset write-buffer when changing the DMA page tables, to ensure that the change is visible to the IOMMU. Override that bit on the affected chipsets, and everything is happy again. Thanks to Chris and Bhavesh and others for helping to debug.

Getting this wrong caused WARNING: at fs/namespace.c:636 mntput_no_expire+0xac/0xf2() due to optimistically checking cpu_writer->mnt outside the spinlock. Here's what we really want: * we know that nobody will set cpu_writer->mnt to mnt from now on * all changes to that sucker are done under cpu_writer->lock * we want the laziest equivalent of spin_lock(&cpu_writer->lock); if (likely(cpu_writer->mnt != mnt)) { spin_unlock(&cpu_writer->lock); continue; } /* do stuff */ that would make sure we won't miss earlier setting of ->mnt done by another CPU. Anyway, for now we just move the spin_lock() earlier and move the test into the properly locked region.
