On ARM, update_mmu_cache() does dcache flush for a page only if
it has a kernel mapping (page_mapping(page) != NULL). The correct
behavior would be to force the flush based on dcache_dirty bit only.
One of the cases where present logic would be a problem is when
a RAM based block device[1] is used as a swap disk. In this case,
we would have in-memory data corruption as shown in steps below:
do_swap_page()
{
- Allocate a new page (if not already in swap cache)
- Issue read from swap disk
- Block driver issues flush_dcache_page()
- flush_dcache_page() simply sets PG_dcache_dirty bit and does not
actually issue a flush since this page has no user space mapping yet.
- Now, if swap disk is almost full, this newly read page is removed
from swap cache and corrsponding swap slot is freed.
- Map this page anonymously in user space.
- update_mmu_cache()
- Since this page does not have kernel mapping (its not in page/swap
cache and is mapped anonymously), it does not issue dcache flush
even if dcache_dirty bit is set by flush_dcache_page() above.
<user now gets stale data since dcache was never flushed>
}
Same problem exists on mips too.
[1] example:
- brd (RAM based block device)
- ramzswap (RAM based compressed swap device)

Currently the irq_type field of the csb726_lan_config structure is
initialized twice. The value in the first case,
SMSC911X_IRQ_POLARITY_ACTIVE_LOW, is normally stored in the irq_polarity
field, so I have renamed the field in the first initialization to that.

As reported in
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13940
on some system when acpi are enabled, acpi clears some BAR for some
devices without reason, and kernel will need to allocate devices for
them. It then apparently hits some undocumented resource conflict,
resulting in non-working devices.
Try to increase alignment to get more safe range for unassigned devices.

An interestingly corrupted romfs file system exposed a problem with the

Rather than limit the string to the length passed in by the callers, it

The clock generation system in the ep93xx uses two external oscillator's
and two internal PLLs to derive all the internal clocks. Many of these
internal clocks can be stopped to save power.
This introduces a "parent" hierarchy for the clocks so that the users
count can be correctly tracked for power management.
The "parent" for the video clock can either be one of the PLL outputs
or the external oscillator. In order to correctly track the "parent"
for the video clock calc_clk_div() needed to be modified. It now
returns an error code if the desired rate cannot be generated.

Update the ep93xx i2c support:
1) The platform init code passes the configuration data for the
i2c-gpio driver. This allows any gpio pin do be used for the
sda and scl pins. It also allows the platform to specify the
udelay and timeout.
2) Program the gpio configuration register to enable/disable the
open drain drivers. Note that this really only works if the
sda and scl pins are set to EP93XX_GPIO_LINE_EEDAT and
EP93XX_GPIO_LINE_EECLK.
3) Update the edb93xx.c platform init to use the new support.

The EHCI driver does some bounds checking when it's scheduling an iTD for
an active endpoint. It sets the local variable start to
stream->next_uframe and moves that variable further in the schedule if
necessary. However, the driver fails to do anything with start before
jumping to the ready label and setting the URB's starting frame to
stream->next_uframe. Alan Stern confirms the EHCI driver should set
stream->next_uframe to start before jumping.

This patch (as1294) fixes a problem that has plagued users for several
kernel releases. Some USB mass-storage devices don't return any sense
data when they encounter certain kinds of errors. The SCSI layer
interprets this to mean that the operation should be retried, and the
same thing happens -- over and over again with no limit. In some
circumstances (such as when a bus reset occurs) that is the right
thing to do, but not here.
The patch checks for this condition (a transport failure with no sense
data) and changes the result code to DID_ERROR and the sense code to
Hardware Error. This does get only a limited number of retries, and
so the command will fail relatively quickly instead of getting stuck
in an infinite loop.
This fixes a large part of Bugzilla #14118.

When the host controller dies (e.g. it is removed from a PCI card slot),
the xHCI driver cannot expect commands to complete. The buggy code this
patch fixes would mark an URB as canceled and then expect the URB to be
completed when the stop endpoint command completed. That would never
happen if the host controller was dead, so the USB core would just hang in
the disconnect code.
If the host controller died, and the driver asks to cancel an URB, free
any structures associated with that URB and immediately give it back.
