Submenus of the graphics support "Support for frame buffer devices" and "Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support)" are broken in half after latest changes for Intel 915 mode setting support. The DRM subsection is broken because one option is put outside the choice section it depends on. The frame buffers part is broken then due to circular dependency. Fix this by make Intel frame buffers depend on CONFIG_INTEL_AGP. Kconfigs are broken by d2f59357 ("drm/i915: select framebuffer support automatically"). This is probably not only way to fix this.

The floppy driver requests an I/O port it doesn't need, and sometimes this causes a conflict with a motherboard device reported by PNPBIOS. This patch makes the floppy driver request and release only the ports it actually uses. It also factors out the request/release stuff and the io-ports list so they're all in one place now. The current floppy driver uses only these ports: 0x3f2 (FD_DOR) 0x3f4 (FD_STATUS) 0x3f5 (FD_DATA) 0x3f7 (FD_DCR/FD_DIR) but it requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 and 0x3f7, which includes the unused port 0x3f3. Some BIOSes report 0x3f3 as a motherboard resource. The PNP system driver reserves that, which causes a conflict when the floppy driver requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 later. Philippe reported that this conflict broke the floppy driver between 2.6.11 and 2.6.22. His PNPBIOS reports these devices: $ cat 00:07/id 00:07/resources # motherboard device PNP0c02 state = active io 0x80-0x80 io 0x10-0x1f io 0x22-0x3f io 0x44-0x5f io 0x90-0x9f io 0xa2-0xbf io 0x3f0-0x3f1 io 0x3f3-0x3f3 $ cat 00:03/id 00:03/resources # floppy device PNP0700 state = active io 0x3f4-0x3f5 io 0x3f2-0x3f2 Reference: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/31/162Signed-off-by:Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by:

What's happening is that the assertion in mm/page_alloc.c:move_freepages() is triggering: BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page)); Once I knew this is what was happening, I added some annotations: if (unlikely(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page))) { printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: Bogus zones: " "start_page[%p] end_page[%p] zone[%p]\n", start_page, end_page, zone); printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: " "start_zone[%p] end_zone[%p]\n", page_zone(start_page), page_zone(end_page)); printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: " "start_pfn[0x%lx] end_pfn[0x%lx]\n", page_to_pfn(start_page), page_to_pfn(end_page)); printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: " "start_nid[%d] end_nid[%d]\n", page_to_nid(start_page), page_to_nid(end_page)); ... And here's what I got: move_freepages: Bogus zones: start_page[2207d0000] end_page[2207dffc0] zone[fffff8103effcb00] move_freepages: start_zone[fffff8103effcb00] end_zone[fffff8003fffeb00] move_freepages: start_pfn[0x81f600] end_pfn[0x81f7ff] move_freepages: start_nid[1] end_nid[0] My memory layout on this box is: [ 0.000000] Zone PFN ranges: [ 0.000000] Normal 0x00000000 -> 0x0081ff5d [ 0.000000] Movable zone start PFN for each node [ 0.000000] early_node_map[8] active PFN ranges [ 0.000000] 0: 0x00000000 -> 0x00020000 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x00800000 -> 0x0081f7ff [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081f800 -> 0x0081fe50 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fed1 -> 0x0081fed8 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081feda -> 0x0081fedb [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fedd -> 0x0081fee5 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081fee7 -> 0x0081ff51 [ 0.000000] 1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers the problem. This patch: Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used. I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy. This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h After this, if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID -> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID -> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c else -> per-arch back end function will be called.

If there's any issue with the callers of sget() assuming the s_umount lock being of sublcass 0, then there is another annotation we can use to fix that, but lets not bother with that if this is sufficient.

I found a problem of handling of modem status of atmel_serial driver. With the commit 1ecc26 ("atmel_serial: split the interrupt handler"), handling of modem status signal was splitted into two parts. The atmel_tasklet_func() compares new status with irq_status_prev, but irq_status_prev is not correct if signal status was changed while the port is closed. Here is a sequence to cause problem: 1. Remote side sets CTS (and DSR). 2. Local side close the port. 3. Local side clears RTS and DTR. 4. Remote side clears CTS and DSR. 5. Local side reopen the port. hw_stopped becomes 1. 6. Local side sets RTS and DTR. 7. Remote side sets CTS and DSR. Then CTS change interrupt can be received, but since CTS bit in irq_status_prev and new status is same, uart_handle_cts_change() will not be called (so hw_stopped will not be cleared, i.e. cannot send any data). I suppose irq_status_prev should be initialized at somewhere in open sequence. Itai Levi pointed out that we need to initialize atmel_port->irq_status as well here. His analysis is as follows: > Regarding the second part of the patch (which resets irq_status_prev), > it turns out that both versions of the patch (mine and Atsushi's) > still leave enough room for faulty behavior when opening the port. > > This is because we are not resetting both irq_status_prev and > irq_status in atmel_startup() to CSR, which leads faulty behavior in > the following sequences: > > First case: > 1. closing the port while CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed) > 2. setting CTS line = 0 (TX allowed) > 3. opening the port > 4. transmitting one char > 5. Cannot transmit more chars, although CTS line is 0 > > Second case: > 1. closing the port while CTS line = 0 (TX allowed) > 2. setting CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed) > 3. opening the port > 4. receiving some chars > 5. Now we can transmit, although CTS line is 1 > > This reason for this is that the tasklet is scheduled as a result of > TX or RX interrupts (not a status change!), in steps 4 above.

The conversion of atmel-mci to dma_request_channel missed the initialization of the channel dma_slave information. The filter_fn passed to dma_request_channel is responsible for initializing the channel's private data. This implementation has the additional benefit of enabling a generic client-channel data passing mechanism. Reviewed-by:

Add support for HP Pavilion dv5. Since Intel-based models have an inverted x axis, while AMD-based models have an inverted y axis, we introduce a new macro that special-cases axis orientation based on two DMI entries: HP dv5 axis configuration is then based on both the PRODUCT and BOARD name.

Sensors responding with 0x3B to WHO_AM_I only have one data register per direction, thus returning a signed byte from the position which is occupied by the MSB in sensors responding with 0x3A. Since multiple sensors share the reply to WHO_AM_I, we rename the defines to better indicate what they identify (family of single and double precision sensors). We support both kind of sensors by checking for the sensor type on init and defining appropriate data-access routines and sensor limits (for the joystick) depending on what we find.

This adds freefall handling to hp_accel driver. According to HP, it should just work, without us having to set the chip up by hand. hpfall.c is example .c program that parks the disk when accelerometer detects free fall.

YAMAMOTO-san noticed that task_dirty_inc doesn't seem to be called properly for cases where set_page_dirty is not used to dirty a page (eg. mark_buffer_dirty). Additionally, there is some inconsistency about when task_dirty_inc is called. It is used for dirty balancing, however it even gets called for __set_page_dirty_no_writeback. So rather than increment it in a set_page_dirty wrapper, move it down to exactly where the dirty page accounting stats are incremented. Cc: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamamoto@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by:

As requested by Michael, add a missing check for valid flags in timerfd_settime(), and make it return EINVAL in case some extra bits are set. Michael said: If this is to be any use to userland apps that want to check flag support (perhaps it is too late already), then the sooner we get it into the kernel the better: 2.6.29 would be good; earlier stables as well would be even better.

Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread. To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to the offset user space wanted.

Separate FMODE_PREAD and FMODE_PWRITE into separate flags to reflect the reality that the read and write paths may have independent restrictions. A git grep verifies that these flags are always cleared together so this new behavior will only apply to interfaces that change to clear flags individually.

We have get_vm_area_caller() and __get_vm_area() but not __get_vm_area_caller() On powerpc, I use __get_vm_area() to separate the ranges of addresses given to vmalloc vs. ioremap (various good reasons for that) so in order to be able to implement the new caller tracking in /proc/vmallocinfo, I need a "_caller" variant of it.

Timeouts during a command that has a data phase can result in the next command issued after the command that failed not being processed, i.e. no interrupt ever occurs to indicate the command has completed. This failure can result in a deadlock. This patch resets the data state machine to clear the error in case of a command timeout.

Based on a patch from Tony Lindgren ... after initialization, never change HCTL.SDVS except for MMC1. The other controller instances only support 1.8V in that field, although they can suport other card/SDIO/eMMC/... voltages with level shifting solutions such as external transceivers. MMC2 behavior sanity tested on Overo/WLAN, OMAP3430 SDP, and custom hardware. MMC1 also sanity tested on those platforms plus Beagle. This also fixes a bug preventing MMC2 (and also presumably MMC3) from powering down when requested. Signed-off-by:

This commit fixes the regression what was added by commit 088a78af "s3cmci: Support transfers which are not multiple of 32 bits." fifo_free() now returns amount of available space in FIFO buffer in bytes. But do_pio_write() writes to FIFO 32-bit words. Condition for return from cycle is (fifo_free() == 0), but when fifo has 1..3 bytes of free space then this condition will never be true and system hangs. This patch changes condition in the while() to (fifo_free() > 3). Signed-off-by:

Hi Tejun, it looks like your commit: block: don't depend on consecutive minor space f331c029 broke a particular case for booting from partitioned md/raid devices. That is the second time this has been broken recently. The previous time was fixed by block: do_mounts - accept root=<non-existant partition> 30f2f0eb Because the data isn't available when an md device is first created (we add disks and set it up after creation), the initial partition scan finds nothing. It is not until the device is opened that another partition scan happens and finds something. So at the point where the kernel parameter "root=/dev/md_d0p1" is being parsed, md_d0 exists, but md_d0p1 does not. However if we let blk_lookup_devt return the correct device number even though the device doesn't exist, then the attempt to mount it will successfully find the partition. I have tried in the past to find a way to get the partition table to be read as soon as the array is assembled but that proved impossible (at the time). I don't remember the details, and could possibly revisit it. However it would be really nice if blk_lookup_devt could be adjusted to again accept non existant partitions. Signed-off-by:

The above commit added WRITE_SYNC and switched various places to using that for committing writes that will be waited upon immediately after submission. However, this causes a performance regression with AS and CFQ for ext3 at least, since sync_dirty_buffer() will submit some writes with WRITE_SYNC while ext3 has sumitted others dependent writes without the sync flag set. This causes excessive anticipation/idling in the IO scheduler because sync and async writes get interleaved, causing a big performance regression for the below test case (which is meant to simulate sqlite like behaviour). ---- test case ---- int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fdes, i; FILE *fp; struct timeval start; struct timeval end; struct timeval res; gettimeofday(&start, NULL); for (i=0; i<ROWS; i++) { fp = fopen("test_file", "a"); fprintf(fp, "Some Text Data\n"); fdes = fileno(fp); fsync(fdes); fclose(fp); } gettimeofday(&end, NULL); timersub(&end, &start, &res); fprintf(stdout, "time to write %d lines is %ld(msec)\n", ROWS, (res.tv_sec*1000000 + res.tv_usec)/1000); return 0; } ------------------- Thanks to Sean.White@APCC.com for tracking down this performance regression and providing a test case.
