2005-09-29[PATCH] ppc32 ld.script fix for building on ppc64Al Viro
In arch/ppc/boot/ld.script we need OUTPUT_ARCH(powerpc:common) for the same reasons why we need it in vmlinux.lds.S; when we build on ppc64 box, we need to be explicit about the target. See http://linus.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/cset@1.1784.8.10 for the corresponding fix in vmlinux.lds.S.

The rest is made constant and simply includes those two. - mk_... helpers are gone now that we don't need to generate these headers - arch/um/include2 removed since everything under arch/um/include/sysdep is constant now and symlink can point straight to source tree. - dependencies seriously simplified.

2005-09-28[PATCH] Keys: Add possessor permissions to keys [try #3]David Howells
The attached patch adds extra permission grants to keys for the possessor of a key in addition to the owner, group and other permissions bits. This makes SUID binaries easier to support without going as far as labelling keys and key targets using the LSM facilities. This patch adds a second "pointer type" to key structures (struct key_ref *) that can have the bottom bit of the address set to indicate the possession of a key. This is propagated through searches from the keyring to the discovered key. It has been made a separate type so that the compiler can spot attempts to dereference a potentially incorrect pointer. The "possession" attribute can't be attached to a key structure directly as it's not an intrinsic property of a key. Pointers to keys have been replaced with struct key_ref *'s wherever possession information needs to be passed through. This does assume that the bottom bit of the pointer will always be zero on return from kmem_cache_alloc(). The key reference type has been made into a typedef so that at least it can be located in the sources, even though it's basically a pointer to an undefined type. I've also renamed the accessor functions to be more useful, and all reference variables should now end in "_ref".

2005-09-28[PATCH] device-mapper: Fix queue_if_no_path initialisationAlasdair G Kergon
When creating a multipath device, if the queue_if_no_path parameter is specified it gets ignored. While the queue_if_no_path variable is correctly set to 1, the saved_queue_if_no_path gets set to 0. When the device is subsequently made live (resumed), the saved value (0) always overwrites the live value (1) so the option *always* gets turned off. The fix adds a parameter to the queue_if_no_path() function to indicate whether the previous value should be preserved or not - if not, as when the device is being set up, the saved value is set to the new value (1).

This should resolve the issue seen in bugme bug #5105, where it is assumed that dualcore x86_64 systems have synced TSCs. This is not the case, and alternate timesources should be used instead.

2005-09-28[PATCH] v9fs: fix races in fid allocationLatchesar Ionkov
Fid management cleanup. The patch attempts to fix the races in dentry's fid management. Dentries don't keep the opened fids anymore, they are moved to the file structs. Ideally there should be no more than one fid with fidcreate equal to zero in the dentry's list of fids. v9fs_fid_create initializes the important fields (fid, fidcreated) before v9fs_fid is added to the list. v9fs_fid_lookup returns only fids that are not created by v9fs_create. v9fs_fid_get_created returns the fid created by the same process by v9fs_create (if any) and removes it from dentry's list Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Cc: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-09-28[PATCH] mm: move_pte to remap ZERO_PAGENick Piggin
Move the ZERO_PAGE remapping complexity to the move_pte macro in asm-generic, have it conditionally depend on __HAVE_ARCH_MULTIPLE_ZERO_PAGE, which gets defined for MIPS. For architectures without __HAVE_ARCH_MULTIPLE_ZERO_PAGE, move_pte becomes a noop. From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Fix nasty little bug we've missed in Nick's mremap move ZERO_PAGE patch. The "pte" at that point may be a swap entry or a pte_file entry: we must check pte_present before perhaps corrupting such an entry. Patch below against 2.6.14-rc2-mm1, but the same bug is in 2.6.14-rc2's mm/mremap.c, and more dangerous there since it's affecting all arches: I think the safest course is to send Nick's patch and Yoichi's build fix and this fix (build tested) on to Linus - so only MIPS can be affected.

2005-09-27[TG3]: 5780 PHY fixesMichael Chan
Fix 5780 PHY related problems: 1. MAC_RX_MODE reset must be done before setting up the MAC_MODE register on 5705_PLUS chips or the chip will stop receiving after a while. The MAC_RX_MODE reset is needed to prevent intermittently losing the first receive packet on serdes chips. 2. Skip MAC loopback test on 5780 because of hardware errata. Normal traffic including PHY loopback is not affected by the errata. 3. PHY loopback fails intermittently on 5708S and this is fixed by putting the PHY in loopback mode first before programming the MAC mode register. A MAC_RX_MODE reset is also added. 4. Return -EINVAL in tg3_nway_reset() if device is in TBI mode. Allow nway_reset if 5780S is in parallel detect mode. 5. Add missing PHY IDs in KNOWN_PHY_ID() macro.
