2010-05-17mtd: s3c2410_nand: Add config option to disable hw ecc at runtimeHolger Freyther
This patch adds a flag to the s3c2410_nand platform data, which configures whether hardware ecc is used for that chip. Currently hardware ecc is used if it was compiled into the kernel. But if you want to build a kernel which runs on multiple devices you might have a configuration where you have devices which require hw ecc as well as devices which want software ecc.

2010-05-17s3c24xx: Fix level irqs on external interrupts.Lars-Peter Clausen
Although the external interrupts support level and edge triggered irqs their handler is currently always set to handle_edge_irq(). While being technically wrong for a level triggered irq to be handled by handle_edge_irq() it will cause serious problems in combination with a oneshot irq. handle_edge_irq() will unmask the irq immediately and as a result the irq will be triggered again before the threaded irq handler had a chance to run and clear the irq source. Thus level triggered irqs should be handled by handle_level_irq. According to the specs the irq controller will remember if an irq has been triggered while it had been masked and will issue it when the irq gets unmasked. Thus it is sufficient to use handle_level_irq() for edge triggered irqs as well. Hence handle_level_irq() can always be used for external interrupts.

2010-05-17S3C: Allow to completly disable low-level messagesLars-Peter Clausen
In some cases it is desirable to completly disable low-level messages. For example if you have no uart available for a serial console. With this patch it is possible to disable low-level messages by setting CONFIG_S3C_LOWLEVEL_UART_PORT to less then zero. Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de>

2010-05-17s3c2410_udc-2440_dual_packet-workaround.patchmokopatches
This is a patch that seems to make the USB hangs on the S3C2440 go away. At least a good amount of ping torture didn't make them come back so far. The issue is that, if there are several back-to-back packets, sometimes no interrupt is generated for one of them. This seems to be caused by the mysterious dual packet mode, which the USB hardware enters automatically if the endpoint size is half that of the FIFO. (On the 2440, this is the normal situation for bulk data endpoints.) There is also a timing factor in this. I think what happens is that the USB hardware automatically sends an acknowledgement if there is only one packet in the FIFO (the FIFO has space for two). If another packet arrives before the host has retrieved and acknowledged the previous one, no interrupt is generated for that second one. However, there may be an indication. There is one undocumented bit (none of the 244x manuals document it), OUT_CRS1_REG[1], that seems to be set suspiciously often when this condition occurs. There is also CLR_DATA_TOGGLE, OUT_CRS1_REG[7], which may have a function related to this. (The Samsung manual is rather terse on that, as usual.) This needs to be examined further. For now, the patch seems to do the trick. Note that this is not a clean solution by any means, because we might potentially get stuck in that interrupt for quite a while.

2010-05-17s3c24xx: Add support for board IRQsLars-Peter Clausen
Some boards have a need for a set of extra IRQ numbers, for example some multifunction devices which do irq demultiplexing require them. This patch adds S3C2410_BOARD_NR_IRQS which specifies the number of extra board IRQs. Board specific code would use S3C2410_BOARD_IRQ_START to get the number of it's first irq. Since it is possible to support a multiple boards with a single kernel and there is no easy way to set a CONFIG option to multiple values and only use the maximum each board which needs board IRQs has do be explicitly added to irqs.h Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de>

This patch adds init, notify and exit callbacks to the leds-pwm driver. One usecase for these callbacks is that on certain platforms it is neccessary to configure a gpio pin as pwm pin. On these platforms it is usefull to have the added callbacks, so that the gpio pin can be configured at the same time as the pwm device. Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de>

2010-05-15 MIPS FPU emulator: allow Cause bits of FCSR to be writeable by ctc1Shane McDonald
In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases, this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware that the code is emulating. This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words: I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic (which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't necessarily writable.

2010-05-15Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commitAl Viro
1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention; we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry)) in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race prevention. 2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed. 3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong) one. Noticed and fixed.

Do not blindly access extended configuration space unless we actively know we're on a Moorestown platform. The fixed-size BAR capability lives in the extended configuration space, and thus is not applicable if the configuration space isn't appropriately sized. This fixes booting certain VMware configurations with CONFIG_MRST=y. Moorestown will add a fake PCI-X 266 capability to advertise the presence of extended configuration space.

inotify_new_group() receives a get_uid-ed user_struct and saves the reference on group->inotify_data.user. The problem is that free_uid() is never called on it. Issue seem to be introduced by 63c882a0 (inotify: reimplement inotify using fsnotify) after 2.6.30.

2010-05-14inotify: race use after free/double free in inotify inode marksEric Paris
There is a race in the inotify add/rm watch code. A task can find and remove a mark which doesn't have all of it's references. This can result in a use after free/double free situation. Task A Task B ------------ ----------- inotify_new_watch() allocate a mark (refcnt == 1) add it to the idr inotify_rm_watch() inotify_remove_from_idr() fsnotify_put_mark() refcnt hits 0, free take reference because we are on idr [at this point it is a use after free] [time goes on] refcnt may hit 0 again, double free The fix is to take the reference BEFORE the object can be found in the idr.

inotify_add_watch explictly frees the unused inode mark, but it can just use the generic code. Just do that. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
