Jonas Stare authored
There is a problem in some hardware where the kernel will stall for 35 seconds waiting for disks that don't exist. This patch will skip waiting for the BSY-bit on IDE drives to go away if you set "hdx=noprobe" as a kernel option and the disk is not marked as 'present' (like when you set the geometry by hand). If no noprobe-option is set the code will work (more or less) as the original but if set the code will skip the ide_wait_not_busy() for that drive. Even if there would be a drive there and it is still busy afterwards it should not matter since it isn't probed for later. The code also honors the MAX_DRIVES variable instead of assuming that there will be two harddrives on the bus.

The intent behind siimage_reset() was probably to hard reset the interface and the SATA PHY but as the code writes to two reserved bits instead, it obviously has been ineffective from the start.

Plip passes a string "name" that is allocated on stack to parport_register_device. parport_register_device holds the pointer to "name" and when the registering function exits, it points nowhere. On some machine, this bug causes bad names to appear in /proc, such as /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0/devices/T^/�X^/�, on others, the plip proc node is completely missing. The patch also fixes documentation to note this requirement. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mikulas@artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

netif_rx is meant to be called from interrupts because it doesn't wake up ksoftirqd. For calling from outside interrupts, netif_rx_ni exists. This fixes plip to use netif_rx_ni. It fixes the infamous error "NOHZ: local_softirq_panding 08" that happens on some machines with NOHZ and plip --- it is caused by the fact that softirq is pending and ksoftirqd is sleeping.

The xfrm_timer calls __xfrm_state_delete, which drops the final reference manually without triggering destruction of the state. Change it to use xfrm_state_put to add the state to the gc list when we're dropping the last reference. The timer function may still continue to use the state safely since the final destruction does a del_timer_sync().

For a kernel built with "make ARCH=x86" the following system information is displayed when running the new kernel $ uname -m x86 On some i386 systems (e.g. K7) we even have the following information $ uname -m x66 This is weird. The usual information for "uname -m" should be "x86_64" on 64-bit and "i386" or "i686" on 32-bit. This patch fixes the issue by setting UTS_MACHINE to "i386" for 32-bit kernel builds and to "x86_64" for 64-bit kernel builds. I.e., "x86" won't be used for UTS_MACHINE anymore.
