* [PATCH] FDPIC: Adjust the ELF-FDPIC driver to conform more to the CodingStyleDavid Howells2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adjust the ELF-FDPIC binfmt driver to conform much more to the CodingStyle, silly though it may be. Further changes: (*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're unsigned long already). (*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise them back together. (*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was actually allocated for the stack. (*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will not be supported in ELF-FDPIC for the foreseeable future.

* [PATCH] NOMMU: Fix execution off of ramfs with mmap()David Howells2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix execution through the FDPIC binfmt of programs stored on ramfs by preventing the ramfs mmap() returning successfully on a private mapping of a ramfs file. This causes NOMMU mmap to make a copy of the mapped portion of the file and map that instead. This could be improved by granting direct mapping access to read-only private mappings for which the data is stored on a contiguous run of pages. However, this is only likely to be the case if the file was extended with truncate before being written. ramfs is left to map the file directly for shared mappings so that SYSV IPC and POSIX shared memory both still work.

* [PATCH] FRV: Fix FRV arch compile errorsDavid Howells2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix some FRV arch compile errors, including: (*) Marking nr_kernel_pages as __meminitdata so that references to it end up being properly calculated rather than being assumed to be in the small data section (and thus calculated wrt the GP register). Not doing this causes the linker to emit errors as the offset is too big to fit into the load instruction. (*) Move pm_power_off into an unconditionally compiled .c file as it's now unconditionally accessed. (*) Declare frv_change_cmode() in a header file rather than in a .c file, and declare it asmlinkage.

* [PATCH] usb-storage: wait for URB to completeAlan Stern2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We all failed to notice that Franck's recent update to usb-storage allowed an URB to complete after its context data was no longer valid. This patch (as746) makes the driver wait for the URB to complete whenever there's a timeout. Although timeouts in usb-storage are relatively uncommon, they do occur. Without this patch the code in 2.6.18-rc1 will fault within an interrupt handler, which is not nice at all.

* [PATCH] pci: initialize struct pci_dev.error_stateLinas Vepstas2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pci channel state is currently uninitialized, thus there are two ways of indicating that "everything's OK": 0 and 1. This is a bit of a burden. If a devce driver wants to check if the pci channel is in a working or a disconnected state, the driver writer must perform checks similar to if((pdev->error_state != 0) && (pdev->error_state != pci_channel_io_normal)) { whatever(); } which is rather akward. The first check is needed because stuct pci_dev is inited to all-zeros. The scond is needed because the error recovery will set the state to pci_channel_io_normal (which is not zero). This patch fixes this awkwardness.

* [PATCH] powerpc: fix SMU driver interrupt mappingBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SMU driver tries to map an interrupt from the device-tree before the interrupt controllers in the machine have been enumerated. This doesn't work properly and cause machines like the Quad g5 to fail booting later on when some drivers waits endlessly for an SMU request to complete. This is the second problem preventing boot on the Quad g5. This fixes it and also makes the SMU driver a bit more resilient to not having an interrupt.

* [PATCH] powerpc: fix trigger handling in the new irq codeBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch slightly reworks the new irq code to fix a small design error. I removed the passing of the trigger to the map() calls entirely, it was not a good idea to have one call do two different things. It also fixes a couple of corner cases. Mapping a linux virtual irq to a physical irq now does only that. Setting the trigger is a different action which has a different call. The main changes are: - I no longer call host->ops->map() for an already mapped irq, I just return the virtual number that was already mapped. It was called before to give an opportunity to change the trigger, but that was causing issues as that could happen while the interrupt was in use by a device, and because of the trigger change, map would potentially muck around with things in a racy way. That was causing much burden on a given's controller implementation of map() to get it right. This is much simpler now. map() is only called on the initial mapping of an irq, meaning that you know that this irq is _not_ being used. You can initialize the hardware if you want (though you don't have to). - Controllers that can handle different type of triggers (level/edge/etc...) now implement the standard irq_chip->set_type() call as defined by the generic code. That means that you can use the standard set_irq_type() to configure an irq line manually if you wish or (though I don't like that interface), pass explicit trigger flags to request_irq() as defined by the generic kernel interfaces. Also, using those interfaces guarantees that your controller set_type callback is called with the descriptor lock held, thus providing locking against activity on the same interrupt (including mask/unmask/etc...) automatically. A result is that, for example, MPIC's own map() implementation calls irq_set_type(NONE) to configure the hardware to the default triggers. - To allow the above, the irq_map array entry for the new mapped interrupt is now set before map() callback is called for the controller. - The irq_create_of_mapping() (also used by irq_of_parse_and_map()) function for mapping interrupts from the device-tree now also call the separate set_irq_type(), and only does so if there is a change in the trigger type. - While I was at it, I changed pci_read_irq_line() (which is the helper I would expect most archs to use in their pcibios_fixup() to get the PCI interrupt routing from the device tree) to also handle a fallback when the DT mapping fails consisting of reading the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN to know wether the device has an interrupt at all, and the the PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE to get an interrupt number from the device. That number is then mapped using the default controller, and the trigger is set to level low. That default behaviour works for several platforms that don't have a proper interrupt tree like Pegasos. If it doesn't work for your platform, then either provide a proper interrupt tree from the firmware so that fallback isn't needed, or don't call pci_read_irq_line() - Add back a bit that got dropped by my main rework patch for properly clearing pending IPIs on pSeries when using a kexec Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] md: fix a plug/unplug race in raid5NeilBrown2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a device is unplugged, requests are moved from one or two (depending on whether a bitmap is in use) queues to the main request queue. So whenever requests are put on either of those queues, we should make sure the raid5 array is 'plugged'. However we don't. We currently plug the raid5 queue just before putting requests on queues, so there is room for a race. If something unplugs the queue at just the wrong time, requests will be left on the queue and nothing will want to unplug them. Normally something else will plug and unplug the queue fairly soon, but there is a risk that nothing will.

* [PATCH] md: fix resync speed calculation for restarted resyncsNeilBrown2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We introduced 'io_sectors' recently so we could count the sectors that causes io during resync separate from sectors which didn't cause IO - there can be a difference if a bitmap is being used to accelerate resync. However when a speed is reported, we find the number of sectors processed recently by subtracting an oldish io_sectors count from a current 'curr_resync' count. This is wrong because curr_resync counts all sectors, not just io sectors. So, add a field to mddev to store the curren io_sectors separately from curr_resync, and use that in the calculations.

* [PATCH] md: delay starting md threads until array is completely setupNeilBrown2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an array is started we start one or two threads (two if there is a reshape or recovery that needs to be completed). We currently start these *before* the array is completely set up and in particular before queue->queuedata is set. If the thread actually starts very quickly on another CPU, we can end up dereferencing queue->queuedata and oops. This patch also makes sure we don't try to start a recovery if a reshape is being restarted. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] md: set desc_nr correctly for version-1 superblocksNeilBrown2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | This has to be done in ->load_super, not ->validate_super Without this, hot-adding devices to an array doesn't always work right - though there is a work around in mdadm-2.5.2 to make this less of an issue.

* [PATCH] md: possible fix for unplug problemNeilBrown2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have reports of a problem with raid5 which turns out to be because the raid5 device gets stuck in a 'plugged' state. This shouldn't be able to happen as 3msec after it gets plugged it should get unplugged. However it happens none-the-less. This patch fixes the problem and is a reasonable thing to do, though it might hurt performance slightly in some cases. Until I can find the real problem, we should probably have this workaround in place.

* [PATCH] tty: Remove include of screen_info.h from tty.hJon Smirl2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | screen_info.h doesn't have anything to do with the tty layer and shouldn't be included by tty.h. This patches removes the include and modifies all users to directly include screen_info.h. struct screen_info is mainly used to communicate with the console drivers in drivers/video/console. Note that this patch touches every arch and I have no way of testing it. If there is a mistake the worst thing that will happen is a compile error.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | MAX_NR_CONSOLES, fg_console, want_console and last_console are more of a function of the VT layer than the TTY one. Moving these to vt.h and vt_kern.h allows all of the framebuffer and VT console drivers to remove their dependency on tty.h.
