[PATCH] Use before initialisation in devfs_mk_cdev()
As noted by Gergely Nagy:
"devfs_mk_cdev() first checks the mode passed to it, and if it thinks
it is not a char device, it prints a warning and aborts. Now, this
printing involves the local variable `buf' (char buf[64]), which is
not initialised at that point."
The same problem also affects devfs_mk_bdev.
Fixed thus.

[PATCH] Make percpu_modcopy a macro
davidm@hpl.hp.com writes:
"I'm working on updating the ia64 tree with local_t etc. One
thing that would really help me: could you make
asm-generic/percpu_modcopy() a macro? The routine depends on
cpu_possible(), but I can't including smp.h in percpu.h since
that would lead to recusive header-file dependencies (and in my
opinion, percpu.h should be more "primitive" than smp.h, so that
it can be included virtually everywhere)."

[PATCH] Delete init/cleanup_module prototypes in obscure places.
A few places pre-declare "int module_init(void);" and "void
module_cleanup(void);". Other than being obsolete, this is
unneccessary (it's in init.h anyway).
There are still about 100 places which still use the
obsolete-since-2.2 "a function named module_init() magically gets
called": this change frees us up implement that via a macro.

[PATCH] module_put_and_exit
Author: Neil Brown
Define module_put_and_exit() and use it for nfsd/lockd
Both nfsd and lockd have threads which expect to hold a reference
to the module while the thread is running. In order for the thread
to be able to put_module() the module before exiting, the
put_module code must be call from outside the module.
This patch provides module_put_and_exit in non-modular code which a
thread-in-a-module can call. It also gets nfsd and lockd to use it
as appropriate.
Note that in lockd, we can __get_module in the thread itself as the
creator of the thread is waiting for the thread to startup.
In nfsd and for the 'reclaimer' threaded started by locked, we
__get_module first and put_module if the thread failed to start.

[PATCH] Sparc64 local_t support

something similar.

[PATCH] introduce "local_t" - cpu-local atomic variables
Introduces local_t, a type which is like atomic_t, but the
operations are only atomic from a single CPU's point of view
(ie. atomic against interrupts and softirqs). Some architectures
(eg. i386) can implement these very efficiently.
There are special operations for the case of a local operation on a
per-cpu variable (which is common), which some architectures can
implement efficiently (eg. IA64 keeps all per-cpu variables mapped
at the same address, so no address arithmetic is needed).
The generic implementation given here simply uses atomics on 32-bit
archs, three variables on others. x86 is already implemented specially.

[PATCH] Centralize Linker Symbols
Richard Henderson point out a while back that linker generated symbols

assumptions about them sitting in small sections, etc.
Centralize these defintions in asm/sections.h (where some already
are on x86).

[PATCH] Allow struct members inside percpu macros
The current percpu macros do not allow __get_cpu_var(foo.val1)
which makes building macros on top of them really difficult. The
reason for this is the __per_cpu postfix appended to per-cpu
variables, designed to catch direct uses. Prepend it instead.
ChangeSet@1.1514, 2003-07-18 18:50:01-07:00, torvalds@home.osdl.org
Fix vfat shortname character logic that had wrong signedness
tests.
From Dennis Vshivkov:
"whenever I was trying to create a file using only national
characters for its name, it was always created with an
uppercased shortname (provided that the name was not too
long for 8.3, of course). Everything was fine with latin
filenames, though."
The bug is that we check "buf[0]" as an unsigned character, but
"buf" is just "char *", which (depending on architecture and
compiler options) tends to be signed.

[PATCH] Refactor v850 UART driver
The v850 family contains several related-but-not-identical on-chip
UARTs. This patch factors out the common code and uses it to implement
both types (only one was supported before).
Also, this patch changes the way the v850 UART is initialized, to use
the same method as other linux serial drivers.
This patch renames the UART code to be `v850e_uart' rather than
`nb85e_uart', as the former is more correct. As this change renames
some files too, the patch contains a number of whole-file add/removes.

[PATCH] Rename `nb85e' to `v850e' on v850
The term `nb85e' is incorrect (caused by my confusion when starting the

Because this change renames some files too, it contains a number of
whole-file add/removes.

[PATCH] "Fix" AS i/o hang with aacraid driver
From: Mark Haverkamp <markh@osdl.org>
Mark says:
"Daniel McNeil and I have been debugging a hang with the aacraid driver
using the as I/O scheduler."
We found that scsi_request_fn would de-queue a request and later
re-queued it. This left the as_data->nr_dispatched variable in an
inconsistent state (it was never being decremented back to zero).
We added a call to elv_completed_request to clean up the state before
re-adding the request. This has fixed our hang problem."
It affects other SCSI drivers, but less frequently. We're assuming this is
the cause of several "everything got stuck in D state" reports.
A very long design discussion has ensued. We don't have a suitably tested fix
ready so I think it is best to put Mark's one-liner in there for now, fix it
for real when everyone gets back from OLS.

[PATCH] fix bootmem allocator on machines with holes in
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
If the memory we are trying to allocate is too large to fit in the current
region, we should skip to the end. We currently search the available
bitmap, find the area is too small, increment the start by incr and try
again. This resulted in an apparent lockup on a 64GB machine that had a
3GB IO hole starting at 1GB (and the mem_map array would not fit in the
first region).
Also use ALIGN macro instead of an open coded version.

[PATCH] dm: v4 ioctl interface
From: Joe Thornber <thornber@sistina.com>
v4 of the ioctl interface. Note there never was a v2 or a v3 except in an
unofficial EVMS way.
This works correctly with the 64-bit dev_t patches in -mm kernels.
There is now a config option to allow the user to select v1 or v4, it
defaults to v1. dm-ioctl.[hc] just #includes dm-ioctl-v[14].[hc] depending
on the config option.
If you want to use v4 you will have to update your tools
(libdevmapper/lvm). The latest tools at the time of writing are:
dmsetup + libdevmapper + replacement kernel patches for 2.4.20 & 2.4.21:

[PATCH] dm: 'wait for event' race
From: Joe Thornber <thornber@sistina.com>
There was a race associated with the 'wait for a significant event'
functionality.
Basically userland could read the status table, then wait for another
event, but the event it was waiting for could have occurred in the gap
between reading and waiting.
To solve this we assign identifiers to events, in order to successfully
wait for an event both userland and the kernel driver must be in agreement
about what the last event identifier was. If they don't agree the wait
call will return immediately, allowing userland to re-read the status and
see what it missed.
The new ioctl interface will use this properly.

[PATCH] vesafb fix
From: Gerd Knorr <kraxel@suse.de>
The patch below fixes some vesafb issues. Changes:
* fixed struct screen_info in tty.h to use portable types. "unsigned
long" for 32bit values doesn't work on hammer machines ...
* limited the framebuffer memory used by vesafb to 16 MB. This avoids
that vesafb's ioremap() eats plenty of kernel address space for no real
benefit if the gfx card has very much memory (some have 128 MB or more,
ia32 has 128 MB address space for vmalloc and ioremap ...).
* mtrr is enabled by default. That should improve the vesafb performance
a lot. Also added a option to disable mtrr.

[PATCH] settimeofday() fixes
From: davem
- sys_stime() takes an int*, but it should be a time_t*: they have different

- sys_settimeofday() is confusing timevals with timespecs. They have
different sizes on sparc64 and the time keeps on getting set to epoch.

[PATCH] Fix two bugs with process limits (RLIMIT_NPROC)
From: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>
1/ If a setuid process swaps it's real and effective uids and then forks,
the fork fails if the new realuid has more processes
than the original process was limited to.
This is particularly a problem if a user with a process limit
(e.g. 256) runs a setuid-root program which does setuid() + fork()
(e.g. lprng) while root already has more than 256 process (which
is quite possible).
The root problem here is that a limit which should be a per-user
limit is being implemented as a per-process limit with
per-process (e.g. CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) controls.
Being a per-user limit, it should be that the root-user can over-ride
it, not just some process with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.
This patch adds a test to ignore process limits if the real user is root.
2/ When a root-owned process (e.g. cgiwrap) sets up process limits and then
calls setuid, the setuid should fail if the user would then be running
more than rlim_cur[RLIMIT_NPROC] processes, but it doesn't. This patch
adds an appropriate test. With this patch, and per-user process limit
imposed in cgiwrap really works.

[PATCH] fix removable partitioned media with devfs
From: Andrey Borzenkov <arvidjaar@mail.ru>
Current 2.5 does not register any device node in devfs for empty media
(capacity == 0) case. This makes removables unusable with devfs.
Partition rescan is done only on bdev open, but without any device node for
device it is impossible to open it.
In 2.4 it was finally solved by always registering .../disc node as
representation for "whole" disk and using devfsd action to force partition
rescan on access to (non-existing) partition name. For primary names it
was handled internally by devfs - it kept track of removable devices in
directory and initiated partition rescan when name was not found.
Both are obviously broken now. You can't do partition rescan because no
node is registered at all and internal handling was removed. Very nice.
The attached patch makes resgister_disk always register at least disc node.
This now works for old and new compat names as per devfsd configuration;
canonical names are still broken:
{pts/3}% ll /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target4/lun0/part4
ls: /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target4/lun0/part4: No such file or directory
but it can be fixed using the same technique as above so I won't push it.

[PATCH] use kmalloc for ia32 stacks
From: William Lee Irwin III <wli@holomorphy.com>
I've been slab allocating the stack on i386 for some time, and it has gone
without incident in pgcl, -wli, -mjb (?), and so on. kmalloc() is fine;
there isn't any particularly compelling reason for a dedicated slab as
there's no preconstruction to do, though it can be arranged.
Basically, it works, there's no obvious reason not to, and (even better)
it's not totally invisible to the VM and even makes overhead reportable.

[PATCH] remove task_cache entirely
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>
kernel/fork.c contains a disabled cache for task stuctures. task
structures are placed into the task cache only if "tsk==current", and
"tsk==current" is impossible. There is even a WARN_ON against that in
__put_task_struct().
So remove it entirely - it's dead code.
One problem is that order-1 allocations are not cached per-cpu - we can
use kmalloc for the stack.

[PATCH] is_devfsd_or_child() deadlock fix
From: Andrey Borzenkov <arvidjaar@mail.ru>
The code that did proper check existed in 2.4 and was removed in 2.5 for
whatever reason. The patch restores it slightly modified as below.
2.4 code looks somewhat unclean in that
- it traverses task list without lock.
- it starts from current->real_parent but nothing prevents current be
init_task itself. This hung for me on 2.5 during boot. May be 2.4 does
something differently.

[PATCH] USB: Handle over current inputs on all Intel controllers
This patch for the UHCI driver changes the test for over current inputs,

seems best just to check for Intel being the manufacturer, especially
since it doesn't hurt to check for the condition when it isn't present or
is only temporary.

[PATCH] Allow unattended nfs3/krb5 mounts
The comment in nfs_get_root() basically describes the patch:
Some authentication types (gss/krb5, most notably)
are such that root won't be able to present a
credential for GETATTR (ie, getroot()).
An easy way (ie, without this patch) to have unattended mounts is to
have a root/host@REALM (or similar) principal stashed in a keytab, which
root (rather, gssd) can use. However, this might not be desirable for
many sites. In any case, RFC2623 specifically describes the problem
addressed here.
Notes:
- Root inode gets inum of 1. This doesn't seem to matter, but may be
aesthetically unpleasing. I wanted to choose an inum unlikely to
conflict with an existing inum (although NFS has specific support
for that). It looks like more work than it's worth to change the
inum after the info is available. AFAICT it's not critical info.
- Solaris has this "wierd" (but understandable) behavior that after
mounting without a credential, the mount point is not visible at all
until an access is attempted with a credential. This now-you-see-it-
now-you-don't behavior doesn't seem worthwhile to reproduce here.
- Unfortunately, MOUNT_VERSION must go to 5. Some kernels with ver 4
do not understand pseudoflavor. Keeping it at 4 means that the
userland mount can't know for sure whether the kernel accepted the
option or not. (Unless I'm missing some hack that could be done.)
It works in my environment, against a netapp server (with the rpcsec_gss
patch I provided earlier).

drivers to start and stop video overlay (necessary for analog module
support in the av7110 driver)
- fix i2c implementation: some frontend drivers transfer a huge amount
of firmware data (> 30kB), speed up the transmission by busy waiting
between byte transfers for bigger transmissions
- change ioctl function in various driver to accept a saa7146
filehandle instead of a saa714 device structure

[PATCH] Incorrect timeout in CDROM_SEND_PACKET ioctl
The CDROM_SEND_PACKET ioctl passes a struct cdrom_generic_command from
user space, which contains a timeout field.
The timeout is measured in jiffies, but the conversion from user to
kernel jiffies is missing, which makes the timeout 10 times shorter than
it should be in 2.5 kernels on x86. This causes CDRW formatting with
cdrwtool to fail. The following patch fixes this problem.

[PATCH] USB: gadget zero learns about pxa2xx udc
The original code needed some updates to work properly with
the USB Device Controller found in Intel's PXA 2xx processors.
- SET_INTERFACE and SET_CONFIGURATION involve hardware
automagic: all endpoints get reset. This is a PITA,
and will likely get more work. (Seems like the reset
is only partial, hosts need to CLEAR_HALT themselves...)
What this does is to handle -ECONNABORTED notifications
from pxa2xx_udc, in those cases. In general, gadget
drivers need to reset endpoints themselves, since the
lower levels (hardware!) won't know how the endpoints
are allocated between interfaces and altsettings.
- The config symbol will be CONFIG_USB_PXA2XX, since the
same controller (modulo errata) is in several processors
other than the "older" pxa250.
- This also adds an "i/o pattern" parameter, so that it
can continue to use the "all zeroes" pattern or switch
to something else. The initial "something else" is an
easily predicted "mod63" pattern.

[PATCH] USB: usbtest, autoconfigure from descriptors
Not all gadget controllers support ep2in-bulk and ep2out-bulk,
unlike the EZ-USB (non-FX2) devices or the net2280.
So this patch teaches "usbtest" how to look at the descriptors
it's given, and use the appropriate endpoints. This helps
support Linux test devices using hardware like the pxa2xx UDC,
and other controllers.

[PATCH] USB: ethernet gadget learns about pxa2xx udc
The original code needed some updates to work properly with
the USB Device Controller found in Intel's PXA 2xx processors.
- SET_INTERFACE is effectively unusable. So the driver
now has a "minimalist" mode, with none of the bells and
whistles of CDC.
- The config symbol will be CONFIG_USB_PXA2XX, since the
same controller (modulo errata) is in several processors
other than the "older" pxa250.
For the record, that "minimalist" mode was the original idea
behind this driver ... implementing CDC was a win for interop
since most non-MSFT host operating systems support it already,
without needing a new driver.
There were also a few other minor updates:
- Net2280: queue depth shrank a bit, don't use the same
endpoint numbers for the IN and OUT sides. (CATC doesn't
let filters consider direction, just numbers.)
- Join the Jihad! Abolish register_netdev()!! This just
nests the gadget-private data structures inside the
netdev data structure, instead of the other way around.
- Minor cleanups.

I noticed that Viro's "use alloc_etherdev" patch left a

so the /sys/class/net/*/{device,driver} files link to the
relevant usb interface and to its device driver.

ia64: Change per-CPU implementation so that __get_cpu_var() returns the
canonical address (l-value). To get the virtually mapped
alias (which is more efficient), use __ia64_per_cpu_var(). The
latter is safe only if the address of the l-value is never passed
to another CPU (i.e., not stored in any global place).
For extremely efficient, portable per-CPU variables, there is
now a new API local.h which was introduced by Rusty Russell.
To use this, declare a variable of type local_t as a per-CPU
variable and then use {__,}cpu_local_FOO() to manipulate such
variables. This patch also updated the atomic interface with
a 64-bit counter.

[PATCH] USB: remove now-dead mode-translation code
This patch removes all of the mode-translation logic. It's no longer
needed, as the upper-level drivers now all issue the proper 10-byte
commands. This is a large patch, but what it's doing is removing a great
deal of unneeded code -- about 650+ lines removed, according to diffstat.
Those of you who are having some trouble getting your DVD-RAMs detected
properly should have all your problems solved by an upcoming patch from the
SCSI folks. It may look like that problem is related to this patch, but it
isn't -- it's a side-effect of another SCSI patch to consolidate code.
Special thanks to James Bottomley for being patient enough to work with me
on these issues on the SCSI layer.
This, BTW, makes US_FL_MODE_XLATE a NOP. The symbol is kept for the
purpose of allowing unusual_devs.h to be consistent between 2.4 and 2.5
There are still a few places where more code could (potentially) be
removed. I need to mull over the UFI specification to be sure, tho.

[PATCH] Large PCI bus numbers
ppc64 machines can have PCI bus numbers larger than 8 bits, but it looks
like pci_device_to_OF_node already handles this case, in both 2.4 and
2.5.
We just need the space to store them.

[PATCH] Fix irq handling of IO-APIC edge IRQs on UP
send_IPI_self is needed to resend irqs with IRQ_PENDING status when
enabled.
Checked with Ingo, and it's in 2.4-ac for some time.
This should fix ide lost interrupts on UP with IO-APIC
Ide trigers it this way:
- disable_irq
- do stuff that triggers IRQ.
- irq is IRQ_PENDING
- enable_irq
- IRQ is lost, needs to be resend.
I'll send the patch to fixup IDE disable_irq logic to Bart.

First "test" kernel. Same naming we used for 2.4.0 - there it took

can do it faster this time.
