2006-04-20[PATCH] update OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER schedule and dependenciesAdrian Bunk
Update the schedule for the removal of drivers depending on OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER as follows: - adjust OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER dependencie - from the release of 2.6.16 till the release of 2.6.17: approx. two months for users to report problems with the ALSA drivers for the same hardware - after the release of 2.6.17 (and before 2.6.18): remove the subset of drivers marked at OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER without known regressions in the ALSA drivers for the same hardware Additionally, correct some OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER dependencies.

2006-04-20[PATCH] sound: fix hang in mpu401_uart.cJon Masters
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. This second version changes -EFAULT to -EIO and frees open resources on error too. Test booted and seems to work ok.

2006-04-20[PATCH] i2c-i801: Fix resume when PEC is usedJean Delvare
Fix for bug #6395: Fail to resume on Tecra M2 with ADM1032 and Intel 82801DBM The BIOS of the Tecra M2 doesn't like it when it has to reboot or resume after the i2c-i801 driver has left the SMBus in PEC mode. The most simple fix is to clear the PEC bit after after every transaction. That's what this driver was doing up to 2.6.15 (inclusive). Thanks to Daniele Gaffuri for the very good report.

2006-04-20[PATCH] MSI-K8T-Neo2-Fir OnboardSound and additional SoundcardJohannes Goecke
On the MSI-K8T-NEO2 FIR ( Athlon-64, Socket 939 with VIA-K8T800- Chipset and onboard Sound,... ) the BIOS lets you choose "DISABLED" or "AUTO" for the On-Board Sound Device. If you add another PCI-Sound-Card the BIOS disables the on-board device. So far I have a Quirk, that does set the correspondent BIT in the PCI-registers to enable the soundcard. But how to ensure that the code is executed ONLY on excactly this kind of boards (not any other with similar Chipset)?

references and other cleanups During module unloading, cdev_del() must be called to unmap cdev related kobject references and other cleanups(such as inode->i_cdev being set to NULL) which prevents the OOPS upon subsequent loading, usage and unloading of modules(as seen in the mail thread http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114533640609018&w=2).

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.

2006-04-19[PATCH] Open IPMI BT overflowHeikki Orsila
I was looking into random driver code and found a suspicious looking memcpy() in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_bt_sm.c on 2.6.17-rc1: if ((size < 2) || (size > IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH)) return -1; ... memcpy(bt->write_data + 3, data + 1, size - 1); where sizeof bt->write_data is IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH. It looks like the memcpy would overflow by 2 bytes if size == IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH. A patch attached to limit size to (IPMI_MAX_LENGTH - 2).
