If we're going to run the handler from free_irq() then we must do it with local irq's disabled. Otherwise lockdep complains that the handler is taking irq-safe spinlocks in a non-irq-safe fashion. Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Signed-off-by:

The serial_pci driver tries to guess serial ports on unknown devices based on the PCI class (modem or serial). On certain softmodems (AC'97 modems) this can lead to the recognition of non-existing serial ports. This patch adds a blacklist of PCI IDs that are to be ignored by the driver.

Reading the LSR clears the break, parity, frame error, and overrun bits in the 8250 chip, but these are not being saved in all places that read the LSR. Same goes for the MSR delta bits. Save the LSR bits off whenever the lsr is read so they can be handled later in the receive routine. Save the MSR bits to be handled in the modem status routine. Also, clear the stored bits and clear the interrupt registers before enabling interrupts, to avoid handling old values of the stored bits in the interrupt routines.

The uart_set_termios() function will bail out early without bothering to touch the hardware, if it decides that nothing "relevant" has changed. Unfortunately, its idea of "relevant" doesn't include c_[io]speed. So if the baud rate bits are BOTHER and you just change the speed, the change gets optimised away. This patch makes it ignore the old Bfoo bits in c_cflag and just check whether c_ispeed and c_ospeed have changed. Those integers are always set appropriately for us by set_termios(). Signed-off-by:

I couldn't find any memory policy documentation in the Documentation directory, so here is my attempt to document it. There's lots more that could be written about the internal design--including data structures, functions, etc. However, if you agree that this is better that the nothing that exists now, perhaps it could be merged. This will provide a baseline for updates to document the many policy patches that are currently being worked. Signed-off-by:

Booting SPARSEMEM on NUMA systems trips a BUG in page_alloc.c: Initializing HighMem for node 0 (00038000:00100000) Initializing HighMem for node 1 (00100000:001ffe00) ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at /home/apw/git/linux-2.6/mm/page_alloc.c:456! [...] This occurs because the section to node id mapping is not being setup correctly during init under SPARSEMEM_STATIC, leading to an attempt to free pages from all nodes into the zones on node 0. When the zone_table[] was removed in the following commit, a new section to node mapping table was introduced: commit 89689ae7 [PATCH] Get rid of zone_table[] That conversion inadvertantly only initialised the node mapping in SPARSEMEM_EXTREME. Ensure we initialise the node mapping in SPARSEMEM_STATIC.

Placing a kprobe on "bc" instruction (s390/s390x) can cause an oops. The instruction length is encoded into the first two bits of the s390 instruction. Kprobe is incorrectly computing the instruction length. The instruction length is used for determining what type of "fix-up" is needed for conditional branch instruction. The problem can bee seen by placing a kprobe on a "bc" instruction that will not branch. The results is that Kprobe incorrectly computes the new instruction pointer (psw.addr) after single stepping the instruction. The problem is corrected with this patch. Signed-off-by:

hypfs removes the whole hypfs directory tree and creates a new one, when a process triggers an update by writing to the "update" attribute. When removing and creating files, it is necessary to lock the inode of the parent directory where the files live. Currently hypfs does not lock the parent inode, which can lead to inode corruption. This patch: * Introduces correct locking * Fixes i_nlink reference counting for inodes, when creating directories * Adds info printk, when hypfs filesystem has been mounted Signed-off-by:

When a vmur device is removed due to a detach of the device, currently the ur device structure is freed. Unfortunately it can happen, that there is still a user of the device structure, when the character device is open during the detach process. To fix this, reference counting for the vmur structure is introduced. In addition to that, the online, offline, probe and remove functions are serialized now using a global mutex. Signed-off-by:

There are several s390 diagnose calls, which must be executed below the 2GB memory boundary. In order to enforce this, those diagnoses must be compiled into the kernel. Currently diag 14 can be called within the vmur kernel module from addresses above 2GB. This leads to specification exceptions. This patch moves diag10, diag14 and diag210 into the new diag.c file.

Hipersocket Multicast queue works asynchronously. When sending buffers, the buffer state change may happen delayed. The tasklet for checking changes in the outbound queue excluded IQDIO async queues from this process. This created either a hang situation when the queue ran full, or presented a hang situation a interface close time. The tasklet processing is changed to include IQDIO async queues when requesting buffer state refresh. Signed-off-by:

QDIO returned from EQBS instruction in any case after return code CCQ=96 was issued regardless whether buffer states for at least one buffer were extracted or not. This caused FCP devices to hang when running under z/VM and having QIOASSASIST=ON and having high I/O rates. In order to fix this qdio return code processing of EQBS instruction after CCQ=96 is changed that buffers are returned and if no buffers where extracted the instruction is repeated at once.

cmf currently prints a message that more than 4096 channels are not allowed in basic mode - however, this can only be enforced if cmf was a module (which is no longer possible). It makes much more sense to not check the specified number of channels and just print a message if the block for basic mode could not be allocated (which may happen for any number of specified channels).
