2006-02-22Revert mount/umount uevent removalGreg Kroah-Hartman
This change reverts the 033b96fd30db52a710d97b06f87d16fc59fee0f1 commit from Kay Sievers that removed the mount/umount uevents from the kernel. Some older versions of HAL still depend on these events to detect when a new device has been mounted. These events are not correctly emitted, and are broken by design, and so, should not be relied upon by any future program. Instead, the /proc/mounts file should be polled to properly detect this kind of event. A feature-removal-schedule.txt entry has been added, noting when this interface will be removed from the kernel.

2006-02-21[PATCH] tmpfs: fix mount mpol nodelist parsingHugh Dickins
I've been dissatisfied with the mpol_nodelist mount option which was added to tmpfs earlier in -rc. Replace it by mpol=policy:nodelist. And it was broken: a nodelist is a comma-separated list of numbers and ranges; the mount options are a comma-separated list of token=values. Whoops, blindly strsep'ing on commas doesn't work so well: since we've no numeric tokens, and unlikely to add them, use that to distinguish. Move the mpol= parsing to shmem_parse_mpol under CONFIG_NUMA, reject all its options as invalid if not NUMA. /proc shows MPOL_PREFERRED as "prefer", so use that name for the policy instead of "preferred". Enforce that mpol=default has no nodelist; that mpol=prefer has one node only; that mpol=bind has a nodelist; but let mpol=interleave use node_online_map if no nodelist given. Describe this in tmpfs.txt. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Acked-by: Robin Holt <holt@sgi.com> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-02-20[PATCH] m32r: update sys_tas() routineHirokazu Takata
This patch updates and fixes sys_tas() routine for m32r. In the previous implementation, a lockup rarely caused at sys_tas() routine in SMP environment. > > The problem is that touching *addr will generate an oops if that page isn't > > paged in. If we convert it to use get_user() then that's an improvement, > > but we must not run get_user() under spinlock or local_irq_disable(). I rewrote sys_tas() routine by using "lock -> unlock" instructions, and utilizing the m32r's interrupt handling characteristics; the m32r processor can accept interrupts only at the 32-bit instruction boundary. So, the "unlock" instruction can be executed continuously after the "lock" instruction execution without any interruptions. In addition, to solve such a page_fault problem, I use a fixup code like get_user(). And, as for the kernel lockup problem, we found that a calling do_page_fault() routine with disabling interrupts might cause a lockup at flush_tlb_others(), because we checked a completion of IPI handler's operations in a spin-locked critical section. Therefore, by using "lock -> unlock" code, we can implement the sys_tas() rouitine without disabling interrupts explicitly, then no lockups would happen at flush_tlb_others(), I hope. Compile check and some working test in SMP environment have done.

2006-02-20[PATCH] s390: V=V qdio fixesFrank Pavlic
Using FCP devices with V=V support, the input queue stalled when CCQ 97 had been returned in qdio_do_eqbs. When this happen we have to reissue the eqbs instruction. Another bug was when V=V was enabled we checked if hardware has SIGA-sync support. If not we returned with 0 from tiqdio_is_inbound_q_done. Thus qdio lost initiative on FCP devices and input queue stalled. Running devices in V=V there is no SIGA-sync support but nevertheless we have to process tiqdio_is_inbound_q_done either.
