Adjust the ELF-FDPIC binfmt driver to conform much more to the CodingStyle, silly though it may be. Further changes: (*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're unsigned long already). (*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise them back together. (*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was actually allocated for the stack. (*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will not be supported in ELF-FDPIC for the foreseeable future. Signed-off-by: -

Fix execution through the FDPIC binfmt of programs stored on ramfs by preventing the ramfs mmap() returning successfully on a private mapping of a ramfs file. This causes NOMMU mmap to make a copy of the mapped portion of the file and map that instead. This could be improved by granting direct mapping access to read-only private mappings for which the data is stored on a contiguous run of pages. However, this is only likely to be the case if the file was extended with truncate before being written. ramfs is left to map the file directly for shared mappings so that SYSV IPC and POSIX shared memory both still work.

Fix some FRV arch compile errors, including: (*) Marking nr_kernel_pages as __meminitdata so that references to it end up being properly calculated rather than being assumed to be in the small data section (and thus calculated wrt the GP register). Not doing this causes the linker to emit errors as the offset is too big to fit into the load instruction. (*) Move pm_power_off into an unconditionally compiled .c file as it's now unconditionally accessed. (*) Declare frv_change_cmode() in a header file rather than in a .c file, and declare it asmlinkage. Signed-off-by: -

Sometimes, applications need below call to be successful although "/mnt/hugepages/file1" doesn't exist. fd = open("/mnt/hugepages/file1", O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0755); *addr = mmap(NULL, 0x1024*1024*256, PROT_NONE, 0, fd, 0); As for regular pages (or files), above call does work, but as for huge pages, above call would fail because hugetlbfs_file_mmap would fail if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE) && len > inode->i_size). This capability on huge page is useful on ia64 when the process wants to protect one area on region 4, so other threads couldn't read/write this area. A famous JVM (Java Virtual Machine) implementation on IA64 needs the capability.

We all failed to notice that Franck's recent update to usb-storage allowed an URB to complete after its context data was no longer valid. This patch (as746) makes the driver wait for the URB to complete whenever there's a timeout. Although timeouts in usb-storage are relatively uncommon, they do occur. Without this patch the code in 2.6.18-rc1 will fault within an interrupt handler, which is not nice at all. Signed-off-by:

The pci channel state is currently uninitialized, thus there are two ways of indicating that "everything's OK": 0 and 1. This is a bit of a burden. If a devce driver wants to check if the pci channel is in a working or a disconnected state, the driver writer must perform checks similar to if((pdev->error_state != 0) && (pdev->error_state != pci_channel_io_normal)) { whatever(); } which is rather akward. The first check is needed because stuct pci_dev is inited to all-zeros. The scond is needed because the error recovery will set the state to pci_channel_io_normal (which is not zero). This patch fixes this awkwardness. Signed-off-by:Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes several problems: - pmac_backlight_key() is called under interrupt context, and therefore can't use mutexes or semaphores, so defer the backlight level for later, as it's not critical (original code by Aristeu S. Rozanski F. <aris@valeta.org>). - Add exports for functions that might be called from modules - Fix Kconfig depdencies on PMAC_BACKLIGHT. - Fix locking issues on calls from inside the driver (reported by Aristeu S. Rozanski F., too) - Fix wrong calculation of backlight values in some of the drivers - Replace pmac_backlight_key_up/down by inline functions [akpm@osdl.org: fix function prototypes] Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a bit of boundchecking in the new Open Firmware interrupt tree parsing code. It's important that it fails when things aren't correct in order to trigger fallback mecanisms that are necessary to make some machines work properly. Signed-off-by:

The SMU driver tries to map an interrupt from the device-tree before the interrupt controllers in the machine have been enumerated. This doesn't work properly and cause machines like the Quad g5 to fail booting later on when some drivers waits endlessly for an SMU request to complete. This is the second problem preventing boot on the Quad g5. This fixes it and also makes the SMU driver a bit more resilient to not having an interrupt. Signed-off-by:

This patch slightly reworks the new irq code to fix a small design error. I removed the passing of the trigger to the map() calls entirely, it was not a good idea to have one call do two different things. It also fixes a couple of corner cases. Mapping a linux virtual irq to a physical irq now does only that. Setting the trigger is a different action which has a different call. The main changes are: - I no longer call host->ops->map() for an already mapped irq, I just return the virtual number that was already mapped. It was called before to give an opportunity to change the trigger, but that was causing issues as that could happen while the interrupt was in use by a device, and because of the trigger change, map would potentially muck around with things in a racy way. That was causing much burden on a given's controller implementation of map() to get it right. This is much simpler now. map() is only called on the initial mapping of an irq, meaning that you know that this irq is _not_ being used. You can initialize the hardware if you want (though you don't have to). - Controllers that can handle different type of triggers (level/edge/etc...) now implement the standard irq_chip->set_type() call as defined by the generic code. That means that you can use the standard set_irq_type() to configure an irq line manually if you wish or (though I don't like that interface), pass explicit trigger flags to request_irq() as defined by the generic kernel interfaces. Also, using those interfaces guarantees that your controller set_type callback is called with the descriptor lock held, thus providing locking against activity on the same interrupt (including mask/unmask/etc...) automatically. A result is that, for example, MPIC's own map() implementation calls irq_set_type(NONE) to configure the hardware to the default triggers. - To allow the above, the irq_map array entry for the new mapped interrupt is now set before map() callback is called for the controller. - The irq_create_of_mapping() (also used by irq_of_parse_and_map()) function for mapping interrupts from the device-tree now also call the separate set_irq_type(), and only does so if there is a change in the trigger type. - While I was at it, I changed pci_read_irq_line() (which is the helper I would expect most archs to use in their pcibios_fixup() to get the PCI interrupt routing from the device tree) to also handle a fallback when the DT mapping fails consisting of reading the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN to know wether the device has an interrupt at all, and the the PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE to get an interrupt number from the device. That number is then mapped using the default controller, and the trigger is set to level low. That default behaviour works for several platforms that don't have a proper interrupt tree like Pegasos. If it doesn't work for your platform, then either provide a proper interrupt tree from the firmware so that fallback isn't needed, or don't call pci_read_irq_line() - Add back a bit that got dropped by my main rework patch for properly clearing pending IPIs on pSeries when using a kexec Signed-off-by:

Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
This patch fixes the initialisation and reset of the tas codec. The tas will often reset if the i2s clocks go away so it needs to be completely re-initialised when clocks come back. Also, this patch adds some code for DRC that will be exploited later to add a DRC control again, fixing a regression over snd-powermac. Signed-off-by:

It turns out that there is a way to build a kernel with NUMA and no SMP. In that case we are missing one definition __inc_zone_state. Provide that missing __inc_zone_state. (akpm: NUMA && !SMP sounds odd, but I am told "But there is the concept of cpuless nodes. A NUMA system without SMP has a single processor but multiple memory nodes. This used to work before on IA64 (wasn't aware of it, never seen anyone with this kind of thing).") Acked-by:

Daniel Ritz <daniel.ritz-ml@swissonline.ch> says: The acpi driver suspend/resume patches that went in recently caused a regression on my box (toshiba tecra 8000 laptop): after resume from swsusp the fan turns on keeping blowing cold air out of my notebook. before the patches, the fan was off and would only make noise when required. it's the same thing described in bugzilla.kernel.org #5000. the acpi suspend/resume patches or at least parts of them originate in this bug. now the last patch in the report (attach id 8438) actually fixes the problem - for me and the reporter. this is a trimmed down version of that patch.
