2008-07-06pxamci: fix byte aligned DMA transfersPhilipp Zabel
The pxa27x DMA controller defaults to 64-bit alignment. This caused the SCR reads to fail (and, depending on card type, error out) when card->raw_scr was not aligned on a 8-byte boundary. For performance reasons all scatter-gather addresses passed to pxamci_request should be aligned on 8-byte boundaries, but if this can't be guaranteed, byte aligned DMA transfers in the have to be enabled in the controller to get correct behaviour.

2008-07-06Revert "USB: don't explicitly reenable root-hub status interrupts"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit e872154921a6b5256a3c412dd69158ac0b135176. Andrey Borzenkov reports that it resulted in a totally hung machine for him when loading the OHCI driver. Extensive netconsole capture with SysRq output shows that modprobe gets stuck in ohci_hub_status_data() when probing and enabling the OHCI controller, see for example http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/5/236 for an analysis. The problem appears to be an interrupt flood triggered by the commit that gets reverted, and Andrey confirmed that the revert makes things work for him again.

2008-07-06KVM: IOAPIC: Fix level-triggered irq injection hangMark McLoughlin
The "remote_irr" variable is used to indicate an interrupt which has been received by the LAPIC, but not acked. In our EOI handler, we unset remote_irr and re-inject the interrupt if the interrupt line is still asserted. However, we do not set remote_irr here, leading to a situation where if kvm_ioapic_set_irq() is called, then we go ahead and call ioapic_service(). This means that IRR is re-asserted even though the interrupt is currently in service (i.e. LAPIC IRR is cleared and ISR/TMR set) The issue with this is that when the currently executing interrupt handler finishes and writes LAPIC EOI, then TMR is unset and EOI sent to the IOAPIC. Since IRR is now asserted, but TMR is not, then when the second interrupt is handled, no EOI is sent and if there is any pending interrupt, it is not re-injected. This fixes a hang only seen while running mke2fs -j on an 8Gb virtio disk backed by a fully sparse raw file, with aliguori "avoid fragmented virtio-blk transfers by copying" changes.

2008-07-04olpc: sdhci: add quirk for the Marvell CaFe's interrupt timeoutAndres Salomon
The CaFe chip has a hardware bug that ends up with us getting a timeout value that's too small, causing the following sorts of problems: [ 60.525138] mmcblk0: error -110 transferring data [ 60.531477] end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 1484353 [ 60.533371] Buffer I/O error on device mmcblk0p2, logical block 181632 [ 60.533371] lost page write due to I/O error on mmcblk0p2 Presumably this is an off-by-one error in the hardware.

2008-07-04cciss: read config to obtain max outstanding commands per controllerMike Miller
This patch changes the way we determine the maximum number of outstanding commands for each controller. Most Smart Array controllers can support up to 1024 commands, the notable exceptions are the E200 and E200i. The next generation of controllers which were just added support a mode of operation called Zero Memory Raid (ZMR). In this mode they only support 64 outstanding commands. In Full Function Raid (FFR) mode they support 1024. We have been setting the queue depth by arbitrarily assigning some value for each controller. We needed a better way to set the queue depth to avoid lots of annoying "fifo full" messages. So we made the driver a little smarter. We now read the config table and subtract 4 from the returned value. The -4 is to allow some room for ioctl calls which are not tracked the same way as io commands are tracked. Please consider this for inclusion.

2008-07-04Alpha Linux kernel fails with inconsistent kallsyms dataBastian Blank
The build of the Alpha Linux kernel currently fails[1] with inconsistent kallsyms data. As I never saw that before, I thought about hardware problems. But in fact it is a bug in the Linux kernel. The end of the rodata section is marked with the "__end_rodata" symbol. This symbol have different aligning constraints than the inittext parts and therefor the start marked "_sinittext". Because of that the __end_rodata symbol shifts between < _sinittext and == _sinittext. The later variant is seen as a code symbol and recorded in the kallsyms data. On fix would be to move the exception table a little bit and get some space between that two areas.

2008-07-04spi: fix the read path in spidevSebastian Siewior
This got broken by the recent "fix rmmod $spi_driver while spidev-user is active". I tested the rmmod & write path but didn't check the read path. I am sorry. The read logic changed and spidev_sync_read() + spidev_sync_write() do not return zero on success anymore but the number of bytes that has been transfered over the bus. This patch changes the logic and copy_to_user() gets called again. The write path returns the number of bytes which are written to the underlying device what may be less than the requested size. This patch makes the same change to the read path or else we request a read of 20 bytes, get 10, don't call copy to user and report to the user that we read 10 bytes.

2008-07-04man-pages is supportedMichael Kerrisk
Starting last month, I reached a long-time goal: man-pages finally has a paid, full-time maintainer, thanks to a fellowship from the Linux Foundation. It's still a little unclear how long the LF money will last for the fellowship, but for the foreseeable future, I'll be working on: * Properly documenting every new Linux kernel-userland (and glibc) API, and every API change, that is released into the mainline kernel, ideally before actual release. (That's the ideal, but there's a quite a backlog, so I'm not going to achieve the ideal immediately.) * Testing new APIs, again ideally before they are released into the mainline kernel, and probably doing some light bug fixing while I'm at it (e.g., the recent utimensat() work). * Design review of new APIs, which of course can only usefully be done before they are released into the mainline kernel. * And of course accepting patches and dealing with bug reports for existing man pages.

2008-07-04Introduce rculist.hStephen Rothwell
In linux-next there is a commit ("rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h") that moved the rcu related list iterators from list.h to rculist.h. Add a trivial version of the file now so that various subsystem trees can start using it now for -next changes and so reduce the build errors caused by adding uses of the moved functions.
