| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Basic audio support for the iMac 24'' model released on 09/2006, including headphone jack detection with automatic speaker muting. This iMac uses the Realtek ALC885 codec, not a Sigmatel one as in other models. Functionality has been tested for internal speakers, headphone and microphone.

However some drivers omit the "input" part and create files named fan1_fault (pc87427) or temp1_fault (dme1737). And the new "generic" libsensors follows this second (non-standard) convention, so it fails to report fault conditions for drivers which follow the standard. We want a single naming scheme, and everyone seems to prefer the shorter variant, so let's go for it. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

Since user-space hasn't had time to run, this array is still in pristine state on the process' stack; so no need to copy it, we can just grab it from there. In order to minimize the damage to audit_log_*() copy each string into a temporary kernel buffer first. Currently the audit code requires that the full argument vector fits in a single packet. So currently it does clip the argv size to a (sysctl) limit, but only when execve auditing is enabled. If the audit protocol gets extended to allow for multiple packets this check can be removed.

Previously this wasn't clear, and at least one platform assumed otherwise (and would thus break various otherwise-portable drivers which don't issue barriers).

We now return an int, which contains VM_FAULT_xxx code in the low byte, and FAULT_RET_xxx code in the next byte. FAULT_RET_ code tells the VM whether a page was found, whether it has been locked, and potentially other things. This is not quite the way he wanted it yet, but that's changed in the next patch (which requires changes to arch code). This means we no longer set VM_CAN_INVALIDATE in the vma in order to say that a page is locked which requires filemap_nopage to go away (because we can no longer remain backward compatible without that flag), but we were going to do that anyway. struct fault_data is renamed to struct vm_fault as Linus asked. address is now a void __user * that we should firmly encourage drivers not to use without really good reason. The page is now returned via a page pointer in the vm_fault struct.
