* 1/2 splice: dont stealNick Piggin2007-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stealing pages with splice is problematic because we cannot just insert an uptodate page into the pagecache and hope the filesystem can take care of it later. We also cannot just ClearPageUptodate, then hope prepare_write does not write anything into the page, because I don't think prepare_write gives that guarantee. Remove support for SPLICE_F_MOVE for now. If we really want to bring it back, we might be able to do so with a the new filesystem buffered write aops APIs I'm working on. If we really don't want to bring it back, then we should decide that sooner rather than later, and remove the flag and all the stealing infrastructure before anybody starts using it.

* make elv_register() output atomicThibaut VARENE2007-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Booting 2.6.21-rc3-g45592145 I noticed the following on one of my machines in the bootlog: io scheduler noop registered<6>Time: jiffies clocksource has been installed. io scheduler deadline registered (default) Looking at block/elevator.c, it appears that elv_register() uses two consecutive printks in a non-atomic way, leading to the above glitch.

* block: blk_max_pfn is somtimes wrongVasily Tarasov2007-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a small problem in handling page bounce. At the moment blk_max_pfn equals max_pfn, which is in fact not maximum possible _number_ of a page frame, but the _amount_ of page frames. For example for the 32bit x86 node with 4Gb RAM, max_pfn = 0x100000, but not 0xFFFF. request_queue structure has a member q->bounce_pfn and queue needs bounce pages for the pages _above_ this limit. This routine is handled by blk_queue_bounce(), where the following check is produced: if (q->bounce_pfn >= blk_max_pfn) return; Assume, that a driver has set q->bounce_pfn to 0xFFFF, but blk_max_pfn equals 0x10000. In such situation the check above fails and for each bio we always fall down for iterating over pages tied to the bio. I want to notice, that for quite a big range of device drivers (ide, md, ...) such problem doesn't happen because they use BLK_BOUNCE_ANY for bounce_pfn. BLK_BOUNCE_ANY is defined as blk_max_pfn << PAGE_SHIFT, and then the check above doesn't fail. But for other drivers, which obtain reuired value from drivers, it fails. For example sata_nv uses ATA_DMA_MASK or dev->dma_mask. I propose to use (max_pfn - 1) for blk_max_pfn. And the same for blk_max_low_pfn. The patch also cleanses some checks related with bounce_pfn.

| * [TG3]: Exit irq handler during chip reset.Michael Chan2007-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On most tg3 chips, the memory enable bit in the PCI command register gets cleared during chip reset and must be restored before accessing PCI registers using memory cycles. The chip does not generate interrupt during chip reset, but the irq handler can still be called because of irq sharing or irqpoll. Reading a register in the irq handler can cause a master abort in this scenario and may result in a crash on some architectures. Use the TG3_FLAG_CHIP_RESETTING flag to tell the irq handler to exit without touching any registers. The checking of the flag is in the "slow" path of the irq handler and will not affect normal performance. The msi handler is not shared and therefore does not require checking the flag.

| * [IPV6]: Fix routing round-robin locking.David S. Miller2007-03-25

Each routing table has a rwlock protecting the tree and the linked list of routes at each leaf. The round robin code executes during lookup and thus with the rwlock taken as a reader. A small local spinlock tries to provide protection but this does not work at all for two reasons: 1) The round-robin list manipulation, as coded, goes like this (with read lock held): walk routes finding head and tail spin_lock(); rotate list using head and tail spin_unlock(); While one thread is rotating the list, another thread can end up with stale values of head and tail and then proceed to corrupt the list when it gets the lock. This ends up causing the OOPS in fib6_add() later onthat many people have been hitting. 2) All the other code paths that run with the rwlock held as a reader do not expect the list to change on them, they expect it to remain completely fixed while they hold the lock in that way. So, simply stated, it is impossible to implement this correctly using a manipulation of the list without violating the rwlock locking semantics. Reimplement using a per-fib6_node round-robin pointer. This way we don't need to manipulate the list at all, and since the round-robin pointer can only ever point to real existing entries we don't need to perform any locking on the changing of the round-robin pointer itself. We only need to reset the round-robin pointer to NULL when the entry it is pointing to is removed. The idea is from Thomas Graf and it is very similar to how this was implemented before the advanced router selection code when in. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * [NET]: Fix neighbour destructor handling.Alexey Kuznetsov2007-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ->neigh_destructor() is killed (not used), replaced with ->neigh_cleanup(), which is called when neighbor entry goes to dead state. At this point everything is still valid: neigh->dev, neigh->parms etc. The device should guarantee that dead neighbor entries (neigh->dead != 0) do not get private part initialized, otherwise nobody will cleanup it. I think this is enough for ipoib which is the only user of this thing. Initialization private part of neighbor entries happens in ipib start_xmit routine, which is not reached when device is down. But it would be better to add explicit test for neigh->dead in any case. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * [NET]: Fix fib_rules compatibility breakageThomas Graf2007-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based upon a patch from Patrick McHardy. The fib_rules netlink attribute policy introduced in 2.6.19 broke userspace compatibilty. When specifying a rule with "from all" or "to all", iproute adds a zero byte long netlink attribute, but the policy requires all addresses to have a size equal to sizeof(struct in_addr)/sizeof(struct in6_addr), resulting in a validation error. Check attribute length of FRA_SRC/FRA_DST in the generic framework by letting the family specific rules implementation provide the length of an address. Report an error if address length is non zero but no address attribute is provided. Fix actual bug by checking address length for non-zero instead of relying on availability of attribute.

The problem is that the stura instruction used by swap_instruction requires the destination address to be 4 byte aligned. As stura only writes 4 bytes, aligning to the next 4 byte aligned address results in the breakpoint instruction being stored past the probe address. The fix is to align the address backward (to the previous 4 byte aligned address) and writing the two byte breakpoint instruction in the appropriate bytes.

Argument types were changed from unsigned long to __be32 (unsigned int). Therefore we lost the implicit type conversion that zeroed the upper half of the registers that are used to pass parameters. Since the inline assembly relied on this we ended up adding random values and wrong checksums were created. Showed only up on machines with more than 4GB since gcc produced code where the registers that are used to pass 'saddr' and 'daddr' previously contained addresses before calling this function. Fix this by using 32 bit arithmetics and convert code to C, since gcc produces better code than these hand-optimized versions.

This resolves really NASTY problems with logspamming via WARN_ON(), indicating N-page leaks. - Be more correct in handling GET_STATUS request for RECIP_ENDPOINT ... the previous code only handled RECIP_INTERFACE, this version should be correct except for (sigh) bulk/interrupt endpoints. - Provide a better name for the function reporting whether the board has vbus sensing wired up. GET_STATUS requests for endpoint status still acts strangely though, at least given one flakey host doesn't always ack the first DATA packet, then the packet that gets retransmitted doesn't have data!

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change prototypes for __chk_user_ptr and __chk_io_ptr to take const void* instead of void*, so that code can pass "const void *" to them. (Right now sparse does not warn about passing const void* to void* functions, but that is a separate bug that I believe Josh is working on, and once sparse does check this, the changed prototypes will be necessary.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IDE error recovery is using IDLE IMMEDIATE if the drive is busy or has DRQ set. This violates the ATA spec (can only send IDLE IMMEDIATE when drive is not busy) and really hoses up some drives (modern drives will not be able to recover using this error handling). The correct thing to do is issue a SRST followed by a SET FEATURES command. This is what Western Digital recommends for error recovery and what Western Digital says Windows does.  It also does not violate the ATA spec as far as I can tell. Bart: * port the patch over the current tree * undo the recalibration code removal * send SET FEATURES command after checking for good drive status * don't check whether the current request is of REQ_TYPE_ATA_{CMD,TASK} type because we need to send SET FEATURES before handling any requests * some pre-ATA4 drives require INITIALIZE DEVICE PARAMETERS command before other commands (except IDENTIFY) so send SET FEATURES only if there are no pending drive->special requests * update comments and patch description * any bugs introduced by this patch are mine and not Suleiman's :-) Signed-off-by: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Acked-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
| * | pdc202xx_new: Enable ATAPI DMAAlbert Lee2007-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ bart: the ressurection of 2 years old patch which slipped thru the cracks (thanks to Sergei Shtylyov for finding it) ] These is the patch to turn on pdc202xx_new for ATAPI DMA. When testing, it works fine without the (request_bufflen % 256) workaround as needed in libata. ide-scsi filters out (pc->request_transfer % 1024) and use PIO, so the pdc202xx ATAPI DMA problem is avoid. Both ide-cd and ide-scsi won't hit the ATAPI DMA problem on pdc202xx_new. Signed-off-by: Albert Lee <albertcc@tw.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since especially Serial ATA has it's own menu point now, I guess we can change the description of the deprecated SATA driver as well, since the new libATA subsystem is not configured through a SCSI low-level driver anymore, but has it's own menu point.

| * | ide: fix locking for manual DMA enable/disable ("hdparm -d")Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2007-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since hwif->ide_dma_check and hwif->ide_dma_on never queue any commands (ide_config_drive_speed() sets transfer mode using polling and has no error recovery) we are safe with setting hwgroup->busy for the time while DMA setting for a drive is changed (so it won't race against I/O commands in fly). I audited briefly all ->ide_dma_check/->ide_dma_on/->tuneproc/->speedproc implementations and they all look OK wrt to this change. This patch finally allowed me to close kernel bugzilla bug #8169 (once again thanks to Patrick Horn for reporting the issue & testing patches).

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "ide: fix drive side 80c cable check, take 2" patch from Tejun Heo (commit fab59375b9543f84d1714f7dd00f5d11e531bd3e) fixed 80c bit test (bit13 of word93) but we also need to fix master/slave IDENTIFY order (slave device should be probed first in order to make it release PDIAG- signal) and we should also check for pre-ATA3 slave devices (which may not release PDIAG- signal). [ Unfortunately the fact that IDE driver doesn't reset devices itself helps only a bit as it seems that some BIOS-es reset ATA devices after programming the chipset, some BIOS-es can be set to not probe/configure selected devices, there may be no BIOS in case of add-on cards etc. ] Since we are quite late in the release cycle and the required changes will affect a lot of systems just revert the fix for now. [ Please also see libata commit f31f0cc2f0b7527072d94d02da332d9bb8d7d94c. ] Thanks goes out to Fernando Mitio Yamada for reporting the problem and patiently testing patches.
