* [PATCH] mm: add a note about partially hardcoded VM_* flagsPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hugh made me note this line for permission checking in mprotect(): if ((newflags & ~(newflags >> 4)) & 0xf) { after figuring out what's that about, I decided it's nasty enough. Btw Hugh itself didn't like the 0xf. We can safely change it to VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC because we never change VM_SHARED, so no need to check that.

* [PATCH] ppc64: Build zImage.vmode for G5Benjamin Herrenschmidt2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | zImage.vmode was recently added. It's a version of zImage in which the ELF note section used by open firmware indicates that it requires a virtual mode instance of OF instead of real mode. This allows it to work with Apple OF, and thus is directly bootable (or netbootable) from OF command line. (Unfortunately, pSeries OF sort-of requires real mode and Apple OF sort-of requires virtual mode, and both tend to be unhappy if no notes section specifies the mode at all). However, we forgot to add zImage.vmode to the default G5 build. This fixes it.

* [PATCH] PPC64: Fix boot for some pre-POWER4 systemsOlof Johansson2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some RS64 systems (such as F80) have non-python host bridges with EADS. However, they have two EADS with 4 buses each under them, so the old logic that assumed no more than 7 busses per PHB failed miserably. Big thanks to Olaf Hering for helping me test this, he's got one of the few machines that broke from the previous logic. Also, to be a bit smarter at detecting the need for a PHB-level IOMMU table by checking for the presence of an ISA bus. Only PHBs with ISA bridges should need the PHB-level table.

* [PATCH] Add printk_clock()Andrew Morton2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ia64's sched_clock() accesses per-cpu data which isn't set up at boot time. Hence ia64 cannot use printk timestamping, because printk() will crash in sched_clock().

* [PATCH] ppc64: Fix PCI flags when using OF device treePaul Mackerras2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | My code to set up the PCI tree from the Open Firmware device tree was setting IORESOURCE_* flags on the resources for the devices, but not the PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_* flags.

| * [SPARC] cs4231: Fix SBUS support in this driver.Christopher Zimmermann2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Christopher Zimmermann <madroach@zakweb.de> This patch enables SBus support for the cs4231 sound driver. It is tested on an Ultra2. Capture and playback both work. I experienced lags and crashes using certain threaded players like ogg123 and mp3blaster, while the former is lagging far more. This behavior may be specific to SMP systems. It is reproducable using the dummy sound card driver. Sox works flawlessly. Setting up the calculation of ptr in snd_cs4231_playback_pointer was a bit strange. I got it to work by not incrementing the [pc]_periods_sent counter when starting DMA the first time in cs4231_dma_trigger. Therefore this dummy thing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because we use byte loads/stores to cons up the value in and out of registers, we can't expect the ASI endianness setting to take care of this for us. So do it by hand. This case is triggered by drivers/block/aoe/aoecmd.c in the ataid_complete() function where it goes: /* word 100: number lba48 sectors */ ssize = le64_to_cpup((__le64 *) &id[100<<1]); This &id[100<<1] address is 4 byte, rather than 8 byte aligned, thus triggering the unaligned exception.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Joel Sing to fix the default congestion control algorithm for incoming connections. If a new congestion control handler is added (via module), it should become the default for new connections. Instead, the incoming connections use reno.

| * | [AF_PACKET]: Allow for > 8 byte hardware addresses.Eric W. Biederman2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The convention is that longer addresses will simply extend the hardeware address byte arrays at the end of sockaddr_ll and packet_mreq. In making this change a small information leak was also closed. The code only initializes the hardware address bytes that are used, but all of struct sockaddr_ll was copied to userspace. Now we just copy sockaddr_ll to the last byte of the hardware address used. For error checking larger structures than our internal maximums continue to be allowed but an error is signaled if we can not fit the hardware address into our internal structure.
