Bernd Schmidt points out that binfmt_flat is now leaving the exec file open while the application runs. This offsets all the application's fd numbers. We should have closed the file within exec(), not at exit()-time. But there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in doing all this just to avoid going over RLIMIT_NOFILE by one fd for a few microseconds. So take the EMFILE checking out again. This will cause binfmt_flat to again fail LTP's exec-should-return-EMFILE-when-fdtable-is-full test. That test appears to be wrong anyway - Open Group specs say nothing about exec() returning EMFILE.

Address a problem found when a Linux NFS server uses the "subtree_check" export option. The "subtree_check" NFS export option was designed to prohibit a client from using a file handle for which it should not have permission. The algorithm used is to ensure that the entire path to the file being referenced is accessible to the user attempting to use the file handle. If some part of the path is not accessible, then the operation is aborted and the appropriate version of ESTALE is returned to the NFS client. The error, ESTALE, is unfortunate in that it causes NFS clients to make certain assumptions about the continued existence of the file. They assume that the file no longer exists and refuse to attempt to access it again. In this case, the file really does exist, but access was denied by the server for a particular user. A better error to return would be an EACCES sort of error. This would inform the client that the particular operation that it was attempting was not allowed, without the nasty side effects of the ESTALE error.

It looks like the generic ide code now wants ide_init_hwif_ports() to set the parent struct device into the ide_hw structure (new field ?). Without this, the mac ide code can cause the ide probing code to explode in flames in sysfs registration due to what looks like a stale pointer in there (happens when removing/re-inserting one of the hotswap media bays on some laptops).

There has been a longstanding problem with the Matrox G450 and perhaps other similar cards, with modes "above" 1280x1024-60 on ppc/ppc64 boxes running Linux. Higher resolutions and/or higher refresh rates resulted in a very noticably "jittery" display, and sometimes no display, depending on the physical monitor. This patch fixes that problem on the systems I have easy access to... I've tested with SLES9SP3 (2.6.5+ kernel) and 2.6.16-rc6 custom kernels on an IBM eServer p5 520 w/G450 (a.k.a GXT135P on IBM's ppc64 systems), and a colleague of mine (Ian Romanick) tested it successfully on an Apple ppc32 box (w/GXT135P). I also tested it on IA32 box I have with a GXT135P to verify that it didn't obviously break anything. In my testing, I covered single-card, single and dual-head setups using both HD15 and DVI-D signals, on both the IA32 and ppc64 boxes. While everything appeared fine on both boxes, I did encounter one problem: I can't get any signal on the DVI-D output on the ppc64 box. However, this is also the case without my patch. I just noticed that screen-blanking only occurs on the primary display as well. Signed-off-by: Paul A.

Functions compat_nfs_svc_trans, compat_nfs_clnt_trans, compat_nfs_exp_trans, compat_nfs_getfd_trans and compat_nfs_getfs_trans, which are called by compat_sys_nfsservctl(fs/compat.c), don't handle the return value of access_ok properly. access_ok return 1 when the addr is valid, and 0 when it's not, but these functions have the reversed understanding. When the address is valid, they always return -EFAULT to compat_sys_nfsservctl. An example is to run /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd(32bit program on Power5). It doesn't function as expected. strace showes that nfsservctl returns -EFAULT. The patch fixes this by correcting the error handling on the return value of access_ok in the five functions.

Original changelog: From: Ayaz Abdulla <aabdulla@nvidia.com> This patch fixes the issues with multiple irqs. I am resending based on feedback. I decoupled the dma mask for consistent memory and fixed leak with multiple irq in error path. Thanks to Manfred for catching the spin lock problem. Fix it: From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Fix bug introduced by ebf34c9b, covered in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6568.

This fixes a byte-swap issue on PPC, found by Zang Roy-r61911 on the powerpc platform.

The driver currently keeps local copies of the hardware request/response queue indexes. But it expends significant effort ensuring consistency between the two views, and still gets it wrong after an error or reset occurs. This patch removes the local copies, in favour of just accessing the hardware whenever we need them. Eventually this may need to be tweaked again for NCQ, but for now this works and solves problems some users were seeing.

The 60xx chips, and possibly others, incorrectly assert DEV_IRQ interrupts on a regular basis. The cause of this is under investigation (by me and in theory by Marvell also), but regardless we do need to deal with these events. This patch tidies up some interrupt handler code, and ensures that we ignore DEV_IRQ interrupts when the drive still has ATA_BUSY asserted.

The interface control register of the 60xx (and later) Marvell chip requires certain bits to always be set when writing to it. These bits incorrectly read-back as zeros, so the pattern must be ORed in with each write of the register. Also, bit 12 should NOT be set (note that Marvell's own driver also had bit-12 wrong here). While we're at it, we also now do pci_set_master() in the init code. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

In some systems, it is possible that the BIOS may have enabled interrupt coalescing for the Marvell controllers which support it.

The mv_err_intr() function is invoked from the driver's interrupt handler, as well as from the timeout function. This patch prevents it from triggering a one-after-the-other double reset of the controller when invoked from the timeout function. This also adds a check for a timeout race condition that has been observed to occur with this driver in earlier kernels. This should not be needed, in theory, but in practice it has caught bugs. Maybe nuke it at a later date. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

Stephen Hemminger authored
If both ports are receiving on the SysKonnect dual port cards, then it appears the bus interface unit can give an interrupt status for frame before DMA has completed. This leads to bogus frames and general confusion. This is why receive checksumming is also messed up on dual port cards. A workaround for the out of order receive problem is to eliminating split transactions on PCI-X. This version is based of the current linux-2.6.git including earlier patch to disable dual ports.
