2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: driver for next generation TPM chipsLeendert van Doorn
The driver for the next generation of TPM chips version 1.2 including support for interrupts. The Trusted Computing Group has written the TPM Interface Specification (TIS) which defines a common interface for all manufacturer's 1.2 TPM's thus the name tpm_tis.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: new 1.2 sysfs filesKylene Jo Hall
Many of the sysfs files were calling the TPM_GetCapability command with array. Since for 1.2 more sysfs files of this type are coming I am generalizing the array so there can be one array and the unique parts can be filled in just before the command is called. This updated version of the patch breaks the multi-value sysfs file into separate files pointed out by Greg. It also addresses the code redundancy and ugliness in the tpm_show_* functions pointed out on another patch by Dave Hansen.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: command duration updateKylene Jo Hall
With the TPM 1.2 Specification, each command is classified as short, medium or long and the chip tells you the maximum amount of time for a response to each class of command. This patch provides and array of the classifications and a function to determine how long the response should be waited for. Also, it uses that information in the command processing to determine how long to poll for. The function is exported so the 1.2 driver can use the functionality to determine how long to wait for a DataAvailable interrupt if interrupts are being used.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: return chip from tpm_register_hardwareKylene Jo Hall
Changes in the 1.2 TPM Specification make it necessary to update some fields of the chip structure in the initialization function after it is registered with tpm.c thus tpm_register_hardware was modified to return a pointer to the structure. This patch makes that change and the associated changes in tpm_atmel and tpm_nsc. The changes to tpm_infineon will be coming in a patch from Marcel Selhorst.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: chip struct updateKylene Jo Hall
To assist with chip management and better support the possibility of having multiple TPMs in the system of the same kind, the struct tpm_vendor_specific member of the tpm_chip was changed from a pointer to an instance. This patch changes that declaration and fixes up all accesses to the structure member except in tpm_infineon which is coming in a patch from Marcel Selhorst.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: spacing cleanupsKylene Jo Hall
The following patch set contains numerous changes to the base tpm driver (tpm.c) to support the next generation of TPM chips. The changes include new sysfs files because of more relevant data being available, a function to access the timeout and duration values for the chip, and changes to make use of those duration values. Duration in the TPM specification is defined as the maximum amount of time the chip could take to return the results. Commands are in one of three categories short, medium and long. Also included are cleanups of how the commands for the sysfs files are composed to reduce a bunch of redundant arrays. This patch: Fix minor spacing issues.

Otherwise callers such as reiserfs_mkdir() can unnecessarily lock the xattrs and later functions such as reiserfs_new_inode() fail to notice that we have already taken the lock and try to take it again with obvious consequences.

2006-04-22[PATCH] x86_64: Fix a race in the free_iommu pathMike Waychison
We do this by removing a micro-optimization that tries to avoid grabbing the iommu_bitmap_lock spinlock and using a bus-locked operation. This still races with other simultaneous alloc_iommu or free_iommu(size > 1) which both use bus-unlocked operations. The end result of this race is eventually ending up with an iommu_gart_bitmap that has bits errornously set all over, making large contiguous iommu space allocations fail with 'PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space'.

2006-04-22[PATCH] add migratepage address space op to shmemLee Schermerhorn
Basic problem: pages of a shared memory segment can only be migrated once. In 2.6.16 through 2.6.17-rc1, shared memory mappings do not have a migratepage address space op. Therefore, migrate_pages() falls back to default processing. In this path, it will try to pageout() dirty pages. Once a shared memory page has been migrated it becomes dirty, so migrate_pages() will try to page it out. However, because the page count is 3 [cache + current + pte], pageout() will return PAGE_KEEP because is_page_cache_freeable() returns false. This will abort all subsequent migrations. This patch adds a migratepage address space op to shared memory segments to avoid taking the default path. We use the "migrate_page()" function because it knows how to migrate dirty pages. This allows shared memory segment pages to migrate, subject to other conditions such as # pte's referencing the page [page_mapcount(page)], when requested. I think this is safe. If we're migrating a shared memory page, then we found the page via a page table, so it must be in memory.

Fix a possible Oops in the Siemens Gigaset base driver when the device is unplugged while an ISDN connection is still active, and makes sure that the isdn4linux link level (LL) is properly informed if a connection is broken by the USB cable being unplugged. - Avoid unsafe checks of URB status fields outside the URB completion handlers, keep track of in-use URBs myself instead. - If an isochronous transfer URB completes with status==0, also check the status of the frame descriptors. - Verify length of interrupt messages received from the device. - Align the length limit on transmitted AT commands with the device documentation. - In case of AT response receive overrun, keep newly arrived instead of old unread data. - Remove redundant check of device ID in the USB probe function. - Correct and improve some comments and formatting.

2006-04-20[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Fix x87 information leak between processesAndi Kleen
AMD K7/K8 CPUs only save/restore the FOP/FIP/FDP x87 registers in FXSAVE when an exception is pending. This means the value leak through context switches and allow processes to observe some x87 instruction state of other processes. This was actually documented by AMD, but nobody recognized it as being different from Intel before. The fix first adds an optimization: instead of unconditionally calling FNCLEX after each FXSAVE test if ES is pending and skip it when not needed. Then do a x87 load from a kernel variable to clear FOP/FIP/FDP. This means other processes always will only see a constant value defined by the kernel in their FP state. I took some pain to make sure to chose a variable that's already in L1 during context switch to make the overhead of this low. Also alternative() is used to patch away the new code on CPUs who don't need it. Patch for both i386/x86-64. The problem was discovered originally by Jan Beulich.

This fixes a hang in mpu401_uart.c that can occur when the mpu401 interface is non-existent or otherwise doesn't respond to commands but we issue IO anyway. snd_mpu401_uart_cmd now returns an error code that is passed up the stack so that an open() will fail immediately in such cases. Eventually discovered after wine/cxoffice would constantly cause hard lockups on my desktop immediately after loading (emulating Windows too well). Turned out that I'd recently moved my sound cards around and using /dev/sequencer now talks to a sound card with a broken MPU.

2006-04-20[PATCH] kprobes: NULL out non-relevant fields in struct kretprobeAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli
In cases where a struct kretprobe's *_handler fields are non-NULL, it is possible to cause a system crash, due to the possibility of calls ending up in zombie functions. Documentation clearly states that unused *_handlers should be set to NULL, but kprobe users sometimes fail to do so. Fix it by setting the non-relevant fields of the struct kretprobe to NULL.

2006-04-20[PATCH] Document online io scheduler switchingValdis Kletnieks
We added the ability to change a block device's IO elevator scheduler both at kernel boot and on-the-fly, but we only documented the elevator= boot parameter. Add a quick how-to on doing it on the fly. Signed-off-by: Valdis Kletnieks <valdis.kletnieks@vt.edu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
