This reverts commit 7503bfba. Dieter Ries reported bootup soft-hangs and bisected it back to this commit, and reverting this commit gave him a working system. The commit introduces work_on_cpu() use into the cpufreq code, but that is subtly problematic from a lock hierarchy POV: the hotplug-cpu lock is an highlevel lock that is taken before lowlevel locks, and in this codepath we are called with the policy lock taken. Dieter did not have lockdep enabled so we dont have a nice stack trace proof for this, but using work_on_cpu() in such a lowlevel place certainly looks wrong, so we revert the patch. work_on_cpu() needs to be reworked to be more generally usable.

Ajith Kumar noticed: I was going through the vmalloc fault handling for x86_64 and am unclear about the following lines in the vmalloc_fault() function. pgd = pgd_offset(current->mm ?: &init_mm, address); pgd_ref = pgd_offset_k(address); Here the intention is to get the pgd corresponding to the current process and sync it up with the pgd in init_mm(obtained from pgd_offset_k). However, for kernel threads current->mm is NULL and hence pgd = pgd_offset(init_mm, address) = pgd_ref which means the fault handler returns without setting the pgd entry in the MM structure in the context of which the kernel thread has faulted. This could lead to never-ending faults and busy looping of kernel threads like pdflush. So, shouldn't the pgd = pgd_offset(current->mm ?: &init_mm, address); be pgd = pgd_offset(current->active_mm ?: &init_mm, address); We can use active_mm unconditionally because it should be always set.

snd-hda-intel driver used schedule_work() fot the delayed DMA pointer updates, but this has several potential problems: - it may block other eventsd works longer - it may deadlock when probing fails and flush_scheduled_work() is called during probe callback (as probe callback itself could be invoked from eventd) This patch adds an own workq for each driver instance to solve these problems.

It is useful for diagnosing boot performance to see where async function calls are waiting on serialization... this patch adds this functionality to the bootgraph.pl script. The waiting time is shown as a half transparent, gray bar through the block that is waiting.

In a discussio with Jeff Garzik, he mentioned that the serialization for the libata port probes only needs to be within the domain of a host. This means that for the first port of each host (with ID 0), we don't need to wait, so we can relax our serialization a little.

The 'rb_first()', 'rb_last()', 'rb_next()' and 'rb_prev()' calls take a pointer to an RB node or RB root. They do not change the pointed objects, so add a 'const' qualifier in order to make life of the users of these functions easier. Indeed, if I have my own constant pointer &const struct my_type *p, and I call 'rb_next(&p->rb)', I get a GCC warning: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘rb_next’ discards qualifiers from pointer target type Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The sensor can be accessed via various buses. In particular, SPI, I²C and, on HP laptops, via a specific ACPI API (the only one currently supported). Separate this latest platform from the core of the sensor driver to allow support for the other bus type. The second, and more direct goal is actually to be able to merge this part with the hp-disk-leds driver, which has the same ACPI PNP number.

Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which suspends write requests. So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and replication) while it is mounted. In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g. VxFS) has the freeze feature and it would be used to get the consistent backup. If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it without a commercial filesystem. So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature. I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps. 1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl. 2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot with the storage device's feature. 3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl. 4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume or the snapshot. This patch: VFS: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they can return an error. Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion. ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed, and unlockfs always returns 0. reiserfs: Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void" to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

Due to commit 2831fe6f, "driver core: create a private portion of struct device", device_initialize() can no longer be called from atomic contexts. We now defer it until after config ROM probing. This requires changes to the bus manager code because this may use a device before it was probed.
