2006-02-04[PATCH] x86_64: Allow to run main time keeping from the local APIC interruptAndi Kleen
Another piece from the no-idle-tick patch. This can be enabled with the "apicmaintimer" option. This is mainly useful when the PIT/HPET interrupt is unreliable. Note there are some systems that are known to stop the APIC timer in C3. For those it will never work, but this case should be automatically detected. It also only works with PM timer right now. When HPET is used the way the main timer handler computes the delay doesn't work. It should be a bit more efficient because there is one less regular interrupt to process on the boot processor. Requires earlier bugfix from Venkatesh Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-02-03[PATCH] RocketPoint 1520 [hpt366] fails clock stabilizationLoren M. Lang
I just purchased a HighPoint Rocket 1520 SATA controller. There seems to be no libata driver (yet), but there is an ide driver, hpt366. When the driver gets loaded, it causes a kernel NULL pointer dereference in pci_bus_clock_list. It seems to be because the driver is waiting for clock stabilization in init_hpt37x() which never comes. The driver just continues on with the pci drvdata set to NULL, instead of a valid clock entry. The following patch prevents the NULL dereference from happening, but instead exit with an error.

2006-02-03[PATCH] stop CompactFlash devices being marked as removableRichard Purdie
This patch stops CompactFlash devices being marked as removable. They are not removable (as defined by Linux) as the media and device are inseparable. When a card is removed, the whole device is removed from the system and never sits in a media-less state. This stops some nasty udev device creation/destruction loops. Further, once this change is made, there is no need for ide to can be removed from ide_drive_t.

2006-02-03[PATCH] IPMI: fix issues reported by Coverity in ipmi_msghandler.cJayachandran C
While looking to the report by Coverity in ipmi, I came across the following issue: The IPMI message handler relies on two defines which are the same -one in include/linux/ipmi.h #define IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS 0x10 and one in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler. #define IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS 16 These are used interchangeably in ipmi_msghandler.c, but since the array addr->channels[] is of size IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS, I have made a patch that uses IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS for all the checks for the array index. NOTE: You could probably remove the line that defines IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS from ipmi.h, or move IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS to ipmi.h Signed-off-by: Jayachandran C. <c.jayachandran@gmail.com> Cc: Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
