* [PATCH] tipar fixesAndrew Morton2006-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - tipar_open(): fix unsigned comparison - tipar_open(): don't permit NULL pardevice (probably unneeded given the above fix). - tipar_init_module(): handle the situation where parport_register_driver() failed to register any devices (parport_register_driver() drops the ->attach return value on the floor). This probably makes fixes #1 and #2 unneeded. - tipar_init_module(): fix various error-path resource leaks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Prevent stalled processing of received data when a driver allocates tty buffer space but does not immediately follow the allocation with more data and a call to schedule receive tty processing.

* [PATCH] IPMI: fix issues reported by Coverity in ipmi_msghandler.cJayachandran C2006-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While looking to the report by Coverity in ipmi, I came across the following issue: The IPMI message handler relies on two defines which are the same -one in include/linux/ipmi.h #define IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS 0x10 and one in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler. #define IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS 16 These are used interchangeably in ipmi_msghandler.c, but since the array addr->channels[] is of size IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS, I have made a patch that uses IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS for all the checks for the array index. NOTE: You could probably remove the line that defines IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS from ipmi.h, or move IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS to ipmi.h Signed-off-by: Jayachandran C. <c.jayachandran@gmail.com> Cc: Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] new tty buffering locking fixPaul Fulghum2006-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change locking in the new tty buffering facility from using tty->read_lock, which is currently ignored by drivers and thus ineffective. New locking uses a new tty buffering specific lock enforced centrally in the tty buffering code. Two drivers (esp and cyclades) are updated to use the tty buffering functions instead of accessing tty buffering internals directly. This is required for the new locking to work. Minor checks for NULL buffers added to tty_prepare_flip_string/tty_prepare_flip_string_flags Signed-off-by: Paul Fulghum <paulkf@microgate.com> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The code has been optimized to simplify and eliminate duplicated code, CPU stack use has been decreased by optimizing function parameters and local variables, and naming conventions across the manager have been standardized for clarity and ease of maintenance (this includes function, parameter, variable, and struct/typedef names.) All Resource Manager dispatch and information tables have been moved to a single location for clarity and ease of maintenance. One new file was created, named "rsinfo.c". The ACPI return macros (return_ACPI_STATUS, etc.) have been modified to guarantee that the argument is not evaluated twice, making them less prone to macro side-effects. However, since there exists the possibility of additional stack use if a particular compiler cannot optimize them (such as in the debug generation case), the original macros are optionally available. Note that some invocations of the return_VALUE macro may now cause size mismatch warnings; the return_UINT8 and return_UINT32 macros are provided to eliminate these. (From Randy Dunlap) Implemented a new mechanism to enable debug tracing for individual control methods. A new external interface, acpi_debug_trace(), is provided to enable this mechanism. The intent is to allow the host OS to easily enable and disable tracing for problematic control methods. This interface can be easily exposed to a user or debugger interface if desired. See the file psxface.c for details. acpi_ut_callocate() will now return a valid pointer if a length of zero is specified - a length of one is used and a warning is issued. This matches the behavior of acpi_ut_allocate(). Signed-off-by: Bob Moore <robert.moore@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

Unfortunately, another patch was simultaneously added that exits early from try_init_acpi() if the register spacings are set to zero, circumventing the new defaults. This patch removes the early exit code and some incorrect comments that aren't present in other common code snippets.
