2008-11-19fbdev: clean the penguin's dirty feetClemens Ladisch
When booting in a direct color mode, the penguin has dirty feet, i.e., some pixels have the wrong color. This is caused by fb_set_logo_directpalette() which does not initialize the last 32 palette entries.

2008-11-19sysvipc: fix the ipc structures initializationNadia Derbey
A problem was found while reviewing the code after Bugzilla bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11796. In ipc_addid(), the newly allocated ipc structure is inserted into the ipcs tree (i.e made visible to readers) without locking it. This is not correct since its initialization continues after it has been inserted in the tree. This patch moves the ipc structure lock initialization + locking before the actual insertion.

If the size passed in is OK but we end up mapping too many segments, we call the unmap path directly like from IO completion.

2008-11-18block: fix boot failure with CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y and nashZhang, Yanmin
We run into system boot failure with kernel 2.6.28-rc. We found it on a couple of machines, including T61 notebook, nehalem machine, and another HPC NX6325 notebook. All the machines use FedoraCore 8 or FedoraCore 9. With kernel prior to 2.6.28-rc, system boot doesn't fail. I debug it and locate the root cause. Pls. see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11899 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471517 As a matter of fact, there are 2 bugs. 1)root=/dev/sda1, system boot randomly fails. Mostly, boot for 5 times and fails once. nash has a bug. Some of its functions misuse return value 0. Sometimes, 0 means timeout and no uevent available. Sometimes, 0 means nash gets an uevent, but the uevent isn't block-related (for exmaple, usb). If by coincidence, kernel tells nash that uevents are available, but kernel also set timeout, nash might stops collecting other uevents in queue if current uevent isn't block-related. I work out a patch for nash to fix it. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18858 2) root=LABEL=/, system always can't boot. initrd init reports switchroot fails. Here is an executation branch of nash when booting: (1) nash read /sys/block/sda/dev; Assume major is 8 (on my desktop) (2) nash query /proc/devices with the major number; It found line "8 sd"; (3) nash use 'sd' to search its own probe table to find device (DISK) type for the device and add it to its own list; (4) Later on, it probes all devices in its list to get filesystem labels; scsi register "8 sd" always. When major is 259, nash fails to find the device(DISK) type. I enables CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y when compiling kernel, so 259 is picked up for device /dev/sda1, which causes nash to fail to find device (DISK) type. To fixing issue 2), I create a patch for nash and another patch for kernel. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18859 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18837 Below is the patch for kernel 2.6.28-rc4. It registers blkext, a new block device in proc/devices. With 2 patches on nash and 1 patch on kernel, I boot my machines for dozens of times without failure.

2008-11-18kernel/profile.c: fix section mismatch warningRakib Mullick
Impact: fix section mismatch warning in kernel/profile.c Here, profile_nop function has been called from a non-init function create_hash_tables(void). Which generetes a section mismatch warning. Previously, create_hash_tables(void) was a init function. So, removing __init from create_hash_tables(void) requires profile_nop to be non-init. This patch makes profile_nop function inline and fixes the following warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6ebb6): Section mismatch in reference from the function create_hash_tables() to the function .init.text:profile_nop() The function create_hash_tables() references the function __init profile_nop(). This is often because create_hash_tables lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of profile_nop is wrong.

2008-11-18prevent cifs_writepages() from skipping unwritten pagesDave Kleikamp
Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed. In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages() asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time. Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling pagevec_lookup_tag() again. If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing with them. This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about to be closed. This patch ensures that index gets set back to the next returned page so that none get skipped.

2008-11-17swiotlb: use coherent_dma_mask in alloc_coherentFUJITA Tomonori
Impact: fix DMA buffer allocation coherency bug in certain configs This patch fixes swiotlb to use dev->coherent_dma_mask in swiotlb_alloc_coherent(). coherent_dma_mask is a subset of dma_mask (equal to it most of the time), enumerating the address range that a given device is able to DMA to/from in a cache-coherent way. But currently, swiotlb uses dev->dma_mask in alloc_coherent() implicitly via address_needs_mapping(), but alloc_coherent is really supposed to use coherent_dma_mask. This bug could break drivers that uses smaller coherent_dma_mask than dma_mask (though the current code works for the majority that use the same mask for coherent_dma_mask and dma_mask).
