* [PATCH] matroxfb adjustmentsJan Beulich2005-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some adjustments to the matroxfb code, for one part preventing the display to be disabled for longer than necessary, and for the other part to make information about the frame buffer position available so that a kernel debugger might obtain that before the initial mode change.

* [PATCH] v4l: experimental Sliced VBI API supportMauro Carvalho Chehab2005-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds all defines, ioctls and structs needed for the sliced VBI API VBI = Vertical Blank Interval. It is related with the way TV signals work. It sends a line, then, it has a retrace time to allow the tube to move electrons to the beginning of the next line. This was the main reason at the beginning of analog B&W TV. There is a lot of bandwidth lost on VBI. So, lots of TV systems use it to send other information such as Closed Captions and Teletext. Also, broadcasters uses this as a channel to exchange information from the content producer to their subsidiaries at each city. There's already a raw VBI interface on V4L2 api, used for Closed Captions and Teletext. The decoding is doing at userlevel space and it is mostly for analog TV signals, non encoded. Encoded signals (MPEG, for example), may need also to transmit other information (like, for example, display aspect, i.e. 4x3, widescreen...). Sliced VBI interface is a method to allow the video stream to transmit this kind of information.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The same LCD is present on both the Sharp Zaurus c7x0 series and the cxx00 but with different framebuffer drivers (w100fb vs. pxafb). This patch adds support for the cxx00 series to the LCD driver.

* [PATCH] SharpSL: Abstract c7x0 specifics from Corgi SSPRichard Purdie2005-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sharp's newer range of Zaurus clamshell handhelds, the cxx00's are similar to the c7x0 series yet different. This patch series abstracts the differences and generates a set of common drivers that support both series of devices. It then adds machine support for Spitz (SL-C3000) and Borzoi (SL-C3100). Hooks for Akita (SL-C1000) differences are also added. The I2C driver for its IO expander is the only missing piece. This patch: Separate out the Sharp Zaurus c7x0 series specific code from corgi_ssp.c so that other models such as the cxx00's can share it. Create sharpsl.h which will be used to abstract machine/model specifics. This enables the driver to be used by the Zaurus cxx00 series.

* [PATCH] cciss: fix for DMA brokenessMike Miller2005-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CCISS driver seems to loose track of DMA mappings created by it's fill_cmd() routine. Neither callers of this routine are extracting the DMA address created in order to do the unmap. Instead, they simply try to unmap 0x0. It's easy to see this problem on an x86_64 system when using the "swiotlb=force" boot option. In this case, the driver is leaking resources of the swiotlb and not causing a sync of the bounce buffer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Explain the mysteries of set_current_state(). Quoth Linus: The scheduler itself never needs the memory barrier at all. The barrier is needed only if the user itself ends up testing some other thing afterwards, ie if you have set_process_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); if (still_need_to_sleep()) schedule(); then the "still_need_to_sleep()" thing may test flags and wakeup events, and then you _may_ want to (and often do) make sure that the write of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is serialized wrt the reads of any wakeup data (since the wakeup may have happened on another CPU). So the comment is somewhat wrong. We don't really _care_ whether the state propagates out to other CPU's since all of our actions are purely local, and there is nothing we do that is conditional on any other CPU: we're going to sleep unconditionally, and the scheduler only cares about _our_ state, not about somebody elses state.

* [PATCH] open returns ENFILE but creates file anywayPeter Staubach2005-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file may be created anyway. This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3 specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not coded correctly to handle this semantic. The SUS V3 specification explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function returns -1.". The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is full and no more file structs can be allocated. This is due to an ordering problem. The entry in the directory is created before the file struct is allocated. If the allocation for the file struct fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry was already created and can not be safely removed. The solution to this situation is relatively easy. The file struct should be allocated before the directory entry is created. If the allocation fails, then the error can be returned directly. If the creation of the directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.
