| * | net: Fix routing tables with id > 255 for legacy softwareKrzysztof Piotr Oledzki2008-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most legacy software do not like tables > 255 as rtm_table is u8 so tb_id is sent &0xff and it is possible to mismatch for example table 510 with table 254 (main). This patch introduces RT_TABLE_COMPAT=252 so the code uses it if tb_id > 255. It makes such old applications happy, new ones are still able to use RTA_TABLE to get a proper table id.

So CONFIG_EHEA was made to depend on MEMORY_HOTPLUG [2], but it is inappropriate for a network driver to have such a dependency. Make the declaration of walk_memory_resource() and its powerpc implementation (ehea is powerpc-specific) unconditionally available.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | support. Source code out there hard-codes a notion of what the _LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION #define means in terms of the semantics of the raw capability system calls capget() and capset(). Its unfortunate, but true. Since the confusing header file has been in a released kernel, there is software that is erroneously using 64-bit capabilities with the semantics of 32-bit compatibilities. These recently compiled programs may suffer corruption of their memory when sys_getcap() overwrites more memory than they are coded to expect, and the raising of added capabilities when using sys_capset(). As such, this patch does a number of things to clean up the situation for all. It 1. forces the _LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION define to always retain its legacy value. 2. adopts a new #define strategy for the kernel's internal implementation of the preferred magic. 3. deprecates v2 capability magic in favor of a new (v3) magic number. The functionality of v3 is entirely equivalent to v2, the only difference being that the v2 magic causes the kernel to log a "deprecated" warning so the admin can find applications that may be using v2 inappropriately. [User space code continues to be encouraged to use the libcap API which protects the application from details like this. libcap-2.10 is the first to support v3 capabilities.] Fixes issue reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=447518.

I actually suspect the logic was wrong before the changes but -rc isn't the time to play with that ata_sff_sync - ensure writes hit the device Really we want an io* operation for 'is posted' eg ioisposted(ioaddr) so that we can fix the nasty delay this causes on most systems. - ata_sff_pause - 400nS delay Ensure the command hit the device and delay 400nS - ata_sff_dma_pause Ensure the I/O hit the device and enforce an HDMA1:0 transition delay. Requires altstatus register exists, BUG if not so we don't risk corruption in MWDMA modes. (UDMA the checksum will save your backside in theory) The only other complication then is devices with their own handlers. rb532 can use dma_pause but scc needs to access its own altstatus register for internal errata workarounds so directly call the drivers own altstatus function.

Some hardware uses this to configure hardware specific features such as IrDA mode on serial ports. Unfortunately the serial layer does not provide this feature or pass it down to drivers. Blackfin used to hack around this by rewriting the tty ops, but those are now properly shared and const so the hack fails. Instead provide the proper operations.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | virtio allows drivers to suppress callbacks (ie. interrupts) for efficiency (no locking, it's just an optimization). There's a similar mechanism for the host to suppress notifications coming from the guest: in that case, we ignore the suppression if the ring is completely full. It turns out that life is simpler if the host similarly ignores callback suppression when the ring is completely empty: the network driver wants to free up old packets in a timely manner, and otherwise has to use a timer to poll. We have to remove the code which ignores interrupts when the driver has disabled them (again, it had no locking and hence was unreliable anyway). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
| * | virtio_blk: fix endianess annotationsChristian Borntraeger2008-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 72e61eb40b55dd57031ec5971e810649f82b0259 (virtio: change config to guest endian) config space is no longer fixed endian. Lets change the virtio_blk_config variables. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
| * | virtio_config: fix len calculation of config elementsChristian Borntraeger2008-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rusty, This patch is a prereq for the virtio_blk blocksize patch, please apply it first. Adding an u32 value to the virtio_blk_config unconvered a small bug the config space defintions: v is a pointer, to we have to use sizeof(*v) instead of sizeof(v).

| * | virtio: An entropy device, as suggested by hpa.Rusty Russell2008-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note that by itself, having a "hardware" random generator does very little: you should probably run "rngd" in your guest to feed this into the kernel entropy pool. Included: virtio_rng: dont use vmalloced addresses for virtio If virtio_rng is build as a module, random_data is an address in vmalloc space. As virtio expects guest real addresses, this can cause any kind of funny behaviour, so lets allocate random_data dynamically with kmalloc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hello Rusty, sometimes it is useful to share a disk (e.g. usr). To avoid file system corruption, the disk should be mounted read-only in that case. This patch adds a new feature flag, that allows the host to specify, if the disk should be considered read-only.

Rename it to SW_RFKILL_ALL, and document what this event is for. Keep the old name around, to avoid userspace ABI breaks. The SW_RFKILL_ALL event is meant to be used by rfkill master switches. It is not bound to a particular radio switch type, and usually applies to all types. It is semantically tied to master rfkill switches that enable or disable every radio in a system.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently it uses a single static char array, but that risks being corrupted when multiple users issue message notes at the same time. Make the buffers dynamically allocated when the trace is setup and make them per-cpu instead. The default max message size of 1k is also very large, the interface is mainly for small text notes. So shrink it to 128 bytes. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* | posix timers: discard SI_TIMER signals on execOleg Nesterov2008-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on Roland's patch. This approach was suggested by Austin Clements from the very beginning, and then by Linus. As Austin pointed out, the execing task can be killed by SI_TIMER signal because exec flushes the signal handlers, but doesn't discard the pending signals generated by posix timers. Perhaps not a bug, but people find this surprising.
