Problem caused by the fact that the code used to only pick the low 16 bits of the bytecount. That may be how some controllers act on it (byte count of 0 means 0x10000), but not for this particular hardware.

Most of the 64 bit architectures will zero extend the first argument to compat_sys_{openat,newfstatat,futimesat} which will fail if the 32 bit syscall was passed AT_FDCWD (which is a small negative number). Declare the first argument to be an unsigned int which will force the correct sign extension when the internal functions are called in each case. Also, do some small white space cleanups in fs/compat.c. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Acked-by: David S.

Some time before 2.6.15, a third DDC channel was added to i810fb. On systems where these ddc pins are not connected, the probe takes about 10 seconds. Add a boot/module option for i810fb to explicitly probe for the 3rd ddc bus if needed.

In data=journal mode, reiserfs writepage needs to make sure not to trigger transactions while being run under PF_MEMALLOC. This patch makes sure to redirty the page instead of forcing a transaction start in this case. Also, calling filemap_fdata* in order to trigger io on the block device can cause lock inversions on the page lock. Instead, do simple batching from flush_commit_list.

After a transaction has closed but before it has finished commit, there is a window where data=ordered mode requires invalidatepage to pin pages instead of freeing them. This patch fixes a race between the invalidatepage checks and data=ordered writeback, and it also adds a check to the reiserfs write_ordered_buffers routines to write any anonymous buffers that were dirtied after its first writeback loop. That bug works like this: proc1: transaction closes and a new one starts proc1: write_ordered_buffers starts processing data=ordered list proc1: buffer A is cleaned and written proc2: buffer A is dirtied by another process proc2: File is truncated to zero, page A goes through invalidatepage proc2: reiserfs_invalidatepage sees dirty buffer A with reiserfs journal head, pins it proc1: write_ordered_buffers frees the journal head on buffer A At this point, buffer A stays dirty forever Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The least significant bit of the TOD clock value returned by get_clock is the 4096th part of a microsecond. To get to nanoseconds the value needs to be divided by 4096 and multiplied with 1000. The current method multiplies first and then shifts the value to make the result as precise as possible. The disadvantage is that the multiplication with 1000 will overflow shortly after 52 days. sched_clock is used by the scheduler for time stamp deltas, if an overflow occurs between two time stamps the scheduler will get confused. With the patch the problem occurs only after approx. one year, so the chance to run into this overflow is extremly low.
