2005-11-12[BLOCK] elevator: run queue in elevator_switchTejun Heo
elevator_dispatch needs to run queue after forced dispatching; otherwise, the queue might stall. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2005-11-12[BLOCK] elevator init fixes #2Zachary Amsden
In addition to the first patch, which is probably goodness, I found the cause of my panic - applying this patch fixes it and now I am booting. If the chosen_elevator[] is not found, fall back to noop. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2005-11-12[BLOCK] elevator init fixesZachary Amsden
I got a panic in the elevator code, backtrace : Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000060 .. EIP is at elevator_put+0x0/0x30 (null elevator_type passed) .. elevator_init+0x38 blk_init_queu_node+0xc9 floppy_init+0xdb do_initcalls+0x23 init+0x10a init+0x0 Clearly if the kmalloc here fails, e->elevator_type is not yet set; this appears to be the correct fix, but I think I probably hit the second case due to a race condition. Someone more familiar with the elevator code should look at this more closely until I can determine if I can reproduce.

2005-11-11[SCTP]: Include ulpevents in socket receive buffer accounting.Neil Horman
Also introduces a sysctl option to configure the receive buffer accounting policy to be either at socket or association level. Default is all the associations on the same socket share the receive buffer.

2005-11-11[SCTP]: Fix ia64 NaT consumption fault with sctp_sideffect commands.Vladislav Yasevich
On ia64, it is possible to get NaT Consumption Fault and a kernel panic when initializing sctp sideeffect commands arguments. The union sctp_arg_t contains different sized elements and when loading a smaller sized element (32 or 16 bits), it is possible for a speculative load to fail and result in a NaT bit set which causes a kernel crash. The easy way to get around it is to load the largerst member of the union.

2005-11-11[SCTP]: Remove timeouts[] array from sctp_endpoint.Vladislav Yasevich
The socket level timeout values are maintained in sctp_sock and association level timeouts are in sctp_association. So there is no need for ep->timeouts.

2005-11-11[SCTP]: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in sctp_v4_get_saddrVladislav Yasevich
It is possible to get to sctp_v4_get_saddr() without a valid association. This happens when processing OOTB packets and the cached route entry is no longer valid. However, when responding to OOTB packets we already properly set the source address based on the information in the OOTB packet. So, if we we get to sctp_v4_get_saddr() without an association we can simply return.

2005-11-11ppc64: default build as the merged 'powerpc' architectureLinus Torvalds
After the last merge of the new unified 'powerpc' architecture, ppc64 no longer compiles cleanly as a standalone architecture. Some bits and pieces still exist as files under the old ppc64 hierarchy, but the old "ARCH=ppc64" is dead. So if "uname" says ppc64, that now implies that the default architecture should be "powerpc".

2005-11-11[SPARC64]: Restore 2.4.x /proc/cpuinfo behavior for "ncpus probed" field.David S. Miller
Noticed by Tom 'spot' Callaway. Even on uniprocessor we always reported the number of physical cpus in the system via /proc/cpuinfo. But when this got changed to use num_possible_cpus() it always reads as "1" on uniprocessor. This change was unintentional. So scan the firmware device tree and count the number of cpu nodes, and report that, as we always did. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-11-11[DECNET]: fix SIGPIPEPatrick Caulfield

2005-11-11[IA64-SGI] set altix preferred consoleMark Maule
Fix default VGA console on SN platforms. Since SN firmware does not pass enough ACPI information to identify VGA cards and the associated legacy IO/MEM addresses, we rely on the EFI PCDP table. Since the linux pcdp driver is optional (and overridden if console= directives are used) SN duplicates a portion of the pcdp scan code to identify if there is a usable console VGA adapter. Additionally, dup necessary pcdp related structs to avoid dragging drivers/pcdp.h into a more public location. Signed-off-by: Mark Maule <maule@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2005-11-11[IA64] 4-level page tablesRobin Holt
This patch introduces 4-level page tables to ia64. I have run some benchmarks and found nothing interesting. Performance has consistently fallen within the noise range. It also introduces a config option (setting the default to 3 levels). The config option prevents having 4 level page tables with 64k base page size.
