When the dump cannot occur most likely because of a full file system and the page to be written is the zero page, the call to page_cache_release() is missed.

It seems that there must be at least one node in mems and at least one CPU in cpus in order to be able to assign tasks to a cpuset. This makes sense. And I think it would also make sense to include a mems setting in the basic usage section of the documentation. I also wonder if something logged to dmsg, explaining why a write failed, would be a good enhancement. I ended up having rummage arround in cpuset.c in order to work out why my configuration was failing.

Currently we have a confused udelay implementation. * __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64 * our implementation requires usecs as arg * it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper. To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed - that's why UML seems to work most times. Fix this with a simple udelay implementation.

We're using #ifdef CONFIG_SYSCTL, but we should be using CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL, so we get fs/built-in.o: In function `proc_root_init': /usr/src/linux/fs/proc/root.c:83: undefined reference to `proc_sys_init' Fix that up and remove an ifdef-in-C.

This patch: - Switches mb/rmb/wmb back to being full-blown DMBs on ARM SMP systems, since mb/rmb/wmb are required to order Normal memory accesses as well. - Enables the use of DMB and ISB on XSC3 (which is an ARMv5TE ISA core but conforms to the ARMv6 memory ordering model and supports the various ARMv6 barriers.) - Makes DMA coherent platforms (only ixp23xx at the moment) map mb/rmb/wmb to dmb(), as on DMA coherent platforms, DMA consistent mappings are done as Normal mappings, which are weakly ordered.

This patch addresses the following issues with the pxa2xx FIr driver: 1. increment overrun error counter and not frame error counter on ICSR1_ROR bit set in ICSR1. 2. drop frames reported with the frame error from the IC. 3. when resetting the receiver and preparing it for the next DMA in pxa_irda_fir_irq() actually clear the Rx FIFO. See description in Table 11-2 in PXA270 Developer's Manual of the RXE bit. Correction added in version 2: clearing the IC Rx FIFO also has to be done in pxa_irda_fir_dma_tx_irq() Signed-off-by: G.

Commit 2e3646e5 changed the way the split config tree is built, but failed to also adjust fixdep accordingly - if changing a config option from or to m, files referencing the respective CONFIG_..._MODULE (but not the corresponding CONFIG_...) didn't get rebuilt. The problem is that trisate symbol are represent with three different symbols: SYMBOL=n => no symbol defined SYMBOL=y => CONFIG_SYMBOL defined to '1' SYMBOL=m => CONFIG_SYMBOL_MODULE defined to '1' But conf_split_config do not distingush between the =y and =m case, so only the =y case is honoured. This is fixed in fixdep so when a CONFIG symbol with _MODULE is found we skip that part and only look for the CONFIG_SYMBOL version.

local_irq_restore -> raw_local_irq_restore -> irq_restore_epilog -> smtc_ipi_replay -> smtc_ipi_dq -> spin_unlock_irqrestore -> _spin_unlock_irqrestore -> local_irq_restore The recursion does abort when there is no more IPI queued for a CPU, so this isn't usually fatal which is why we got away with this for so long until this was discovered by code inspection.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
ia64 expects following vm layout: == low memory [register-stack grows up] [memory-stack grows down] == high memory But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the stack *might* start. Stack randomization will result in the memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if you were very unlucky right on top of it!). Fix: Calculate the base address for the register stack starting from the actual address of the memory stack.
