* i2c: fix i2c-sh_mobile timing issuesMagnus Damm2008-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch teaches the i2c-sh_mobile driver to make use of wait irqs. Without this patch only dte irqs are used which may lead to overruns and cases of missing stop and extra bytes being read on the i2c bus. Use of wait irqs forces the hardware to pause and wait until the cpu is ready. Polling is also reworked in this patch to fix ms delay issues. Verified with bus analyzer and tested on MigoR and AP325RXA boards. Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <damm@igel.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

* sh: resume_kernel fix for kernel oops built with CONFIG_BKL_PREEMPT=y.Carmelo Amoroso2008-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a problem within the SH implementation of resume_kernel code, that implements in assembly the bulk of preempt_schedule_irq function without taking care of the extra code needed to handle the BKL preemptible. The patch basically consists of removing this asm code and calling the common C implementation (see kernel/sched.c) as other archs do. Another change is the missing 'cli' macro invocation at the beginning of the resume_kernel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The acer_wmi driver does a DMI scan for quirks, and then sets flags into the "interface" datastructure for some cases. However, the quirks happen real early before "interface" is per se initialized from NULL.

| * ipv6: protocol for address routesStephen Hemminger2008-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected route, and other as a kernel route. When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it already has the connected route. The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol == RTPROT_BOOT. Was this a design decision or a bug? This fixes it. Same patch applies to both net-2.6 and stable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Authenc works in two stages for encryption, it first encrypts and then computes an ICV. The context memory of the request is used by both operations. The problem is that when an asynchronous encryption completes, we will compute the ICV and then reread the context memory of the encryption to get the original request. It just happens that we have a buffer of 16 bytes in front of the request pointer, so ICVs of 16 bytes (such as SHA1) do not trigger the bug. However, any attempt to uses a larger ICV instantly kills the machine when the first asynchronous encryption is completed. This patch fixes this by saving the request pointer before we start the ICV computation. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

Since we didn't know exactly how many blocks would need to be allocated, the estimated journal credits required was very conservative and caused many issues. With the reworked delayed allocation, a new transaction is created for each get_block(), thus we don't need to guess how many credits for the multiple chunk of allocation. We start every transaction with enough credits for inserting a single exent. When estimate the credits for indirect blocks to allocate a chunk of blocks, we need to know the number of data blocks to allocate. We use the total number of reserved delalloc datablocks; if that is too big, for non-extent files, we need to limit the number of blocks to EXT4_MAX_TRANS_BLOCKS. Code cleanup from Aneesh.

If so we would end up not mapping some of the buffer_heads. That means those buffer_heads are still marked delay. Later in the writepage callback via __mpage_writepage we redirty those pages.

| * | | | ext4: Fix bug where we return ENOSPC even though we have plenty of inodesEric Sandeen2008-08-19

Some of the flex groups searched have free blocks and free inodes, but the flex_freeb_ratio is < 10, so they're skipped. Then when a group is compared to the current "best" flex group, it does not have more free blocks than "best", so it is skipped as well. This continues until no flex group with free inodes is found which has a proper ratio or which has more free blocks than the "best" group, and we're left with a "best" group that has 0 inodes free, and we return -ENOSPC. We fix this by changing the logic so that if the current "best" flex group has no inodes free, and the current one does have room, it is promoted to the next "best."

This patch adds a check to make sure you have reserved gdt blocks to use, and if not prints out a more relevant error.

If there is no reserved block at all, we shouldn't need to do so. But current code still tries to release the reserved blocks regardless whether the counters's value is 0. Continue to do that causes the later calculation to go wrong and a kernel BUG_ON() caught that. This doesn't happen for extent-based files, as the calculation for 0 reserved blocks was right for extent based file. This patch fixed the kernel BUG() due to above reason. It adds checks for 0 to avoid unnecessary release and fix calculation for non-extent files. Signed-off-by: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to call ext4_discard_reservation() earlier in ext4_truncate(), to avoid a BUG() in ext4_mb_return_to_preallocation(), which is called (ultimately) by ext4_free_blocks(). So we must ditch the blocks on i_prealloc_list before we start freeing the data blocks. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
