This patch converts struct dma_resources to named initializers. Besides fixing a compile error in -mm, it didn't sound like a bad idea. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> Acked-by: Alexander Schulz <alex@shark-linux.de> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

With CONFIG_NUMA set, kmem_cache_destroy() may fail and say "Can't free all objects." The problem is caused by sequences such as the following (suppose we are on a NUMA machine with two nodes, 0 and 1): * Allocate an object from cache on node 0. * Free the object on node 1. The object is put into node 1's alien array_cache for node 0. * Call kmem_cache_destroy(), which ultimately ends up in __cache_shrink(). * __cache_shrink() does drain_cpu_caches(), which loops through all nodes. For each node it drains the shared array_cache and then handles the alien array_cache for the other node. However this means that node 0's shared array_cache will be drained, and then node 1 will move the contents of its alien[0] array_cache into that same shared array_cache. node 0's shared array_cache is never looked at again, so the objects left there will appear to be in use when __cache_shrink() calls __node_shrink() for node 0. So __node_shrink() will return 1 and kmem_cache_destroy() will fail. This patch fixes this by having drain_cpu_caches() do drain_alien_cache() on every node before it does drain_array() on the nodes' shared array_caches. The problem was originally reported by Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@voltaire.com>.

Extends an earlier patch from John Blackwood to more exception handlers that also run on the exception stacks. Expand the use of preempt_conditional_{sti,cli} to all cases where interrupts are to be re-enabled during exception handling while running on an IST stack. Based on original patch from Jan Beulich.

This fixes some boot failures on Dell and Unisys systems with memory hotadd added. - Set hotadd_percent to 0 by default. This means anybody using hotadd memory needs to specify the value on the command line. That's because there are lots of Intel boxes which have a bogus hotplug area in their SRAT and they would waste a lot of memory before. - Fix calculation of how much memory to use when the hotplug area exceeds hotadd_percent - Fix fallback when the - Fix fallback if memory hotadd is not compiled in.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
The OF trampoline code prom_init.c still needs to identify IBM pSeries (PAPR) machines in order to run some platform specific code on them like instanciating the TCE tables. The code doing that detection was changed recently in 2.6.17 early stages but was done slightly incorrectly. It should be testing for an exact match of "chrp" and it currently tests for anything that begins with "chrp". That means it will incorrectly match with platforms using Maple-like device-trees and have open firmware. This fixes it by using strcmp instead of strncmp to match what the actual platform detection code does.

Changing the driver to use dynamic device numbers was one of the many changes that were made in order to have the driver accepted into the mainline kernel.

When we fail to mount from a valid root device list out the filesystems we have tried to mount it with. This gives the user vital diagnostics as to what is missing from their kernel. For example in the fragment below the kernel does not have CRAMFS compiled into the kernel and yet appears to recognise it at the RAMDISK detect stage. Later the mount fails as we don't have the filesystem. RAMDISK: cramfs filesystem found at block 0 RAMDISK: Loading 1604KiB [1 disk] into ram disk... done. XFS: bad magic number XFS: SB validate failed No filesystem could mount root, tried: reiserfs ext3 ext2 msdos vfat iso9660 jfs xfs Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,1) Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

can_share_swap_page() is used to check if the page has the last reference. This avoids allocating a new page for COW if it's the last page. However, if CONFIG_SWAP is not set, can_share_swap_page() is defined as 0, thus always causes a copy for the last COW page. The below simple patch fixes it.

Multiple races can happen when v9fs is interrupted by a signal and Tflush message is sent to the server. After v9fs sends Tflush it doesn't wait until it receives Rflush, and possibly the response of the original message. This behavior may confuse v9fs what fids are allocated by the file server. This patch fixes the races and the fid allocation.
