2008-10-22ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power ↵Zhao Yakui
transition Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0 state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0 state. In such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device can't be transited to the correct power state. So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking the device power in the course of device power transition. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8049 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11000 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2008-10-22powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernelMohan Kumar M
This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234) is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels. The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter. CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and kdump kernel. This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.

2008-10-20PCI: fix MSI-HOWTO.txt info about MSI-X MMIO spaceRoland Dreier
The current MSI-HOWTO.txt says that device drivers should not request the memory space that contains MSI-X tables. This is because the original MSI-X implementation did a request_mem_region() on this space, but that code was removed long ago (in the pre-git era, in fact). Years after the code was changed, we might as well clean up the documention to avoid a confusing mention of requesting regions: drivers using MSI-X can just use pci_request_regions() just like any other driver, and so there's no need for MSI-HOWTO.txt to talk about this at all.

2008-10-20memcg: avoid accounting special pagesKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
There are not-on-LRU pages which can be mapped and they are not worth to be accounted. (becasue we can't shrink them and need dirty codes to handle specical case) We'd like to make use of usual objrmap/radix-tree's protcol and don't want to account out-of-vm's control pages. When special_mapping_fault() is called, page->mapping is tend to be NULL and it's charged as Anonymous page. insert_page() also handles some special pages from drivers. This patch is for avoiding to account special pages.

2008-10-20ext3: add an option to control error handling on file dataHidehiro Kawai
If the journal doesn't abort when it gets an IO error in file data blocks, the file data corruption will spread silently. Because most of applications and commands do buffered writes without fsync(), they don't notice the IO error. It's scary for mission critical systems. On the other hand, if the journal aborts whenever it gets an IO error in file data blocks, the system will easily become inoperable. So this patch introduces a filesystem option to determine whether it aborts the journal or just call printk() when it gets an IO error in file data. If you mount a ext3 fs with data_err=abort option, it aborts on file data write error. If you mount it with data_err=ignore, it doesn't abort, just call printk(). data_err=ignore is the default.

2008-10-20coredump_filter: add hugepage dumpingKOSAKI Motohiro
Presently hugepage's vma has a VM_RESERVED flag in order not to be swapped. But a VM_RESERVED vma isn't core dumped because this flag is often used for some kernel vmas (e.g. vmalloc, sound related). Thus hugepages are never dumped and it can't be debugged easily. Many developers want hugepages to be included into core-dump. However, We can't read generic VM_RESERVED area because this area is often IO mapping area. then these area reading may change device state. it is definitly undesiable side-effect. So adding a hugepage specific bit to the coredump filter is better. It will be able to hugepage core dumping and doesn't cause any side-effect to any i/o devices. In additional, libhugetlb use hugetlb private mapping pages as anonymous page. Then, hugepage private mapping pages should be core dumped by default. Then, /proc/[pid]/core_dump_filter has two new bits. - bit 5 mean hugetlb private mapping pages are dumped or not. (default: yes) - bit 6 mean hugetlb shared mapping pages are dumped or not. (default: no) I tested by following method. % ulimit -c unlimited % ./crash_hugepage 50 % ./crash_hugepage 50 -p % ls -lh % gdb ./crash_hugepage core % % echo 0x43 > /proc/self/coredump_filter % ./crash_hugepage 50 % ./crash_hugepage 50 -p % ls -lh % gdb ./crash_hugepage core #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <string.h> #include "hugetlbfs.h" int main(int argc, char** argv){ char* p; int ch; int mmap_flags = MAP_SHARED; int fd; int nr_pages; while((ch = getopt(argc, argv, "p")) != -1) { switch (ch) { case 'p': mmap_flags &= ~MAP_SHARED; mmap_flags |= MAP_PRIVATE; break; default: /* nothing*/ break; } } argc -= optind; argv += optind; if (argc == 0){ printf("need # of pages\n"); exit(1); } nr_pages = atoi(argv[0]); if (nr_pages < 2) { printf("nr_pages must >2\n"); exit(1); } fd = hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd(); p = mmap(NULL, nr_pages * gethugepagesize(), PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, mmap_flags, fd, 0); sleep(2); *(p + gethugepagesize()) = 1; /* COW */ sleep(2); /* crash! */ *(int*)0 = 1; return 0; } Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Kawai Hidehiro <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Cc: William Irwin <wli@holomorphy.com> Cc: Adam Litke <agl@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-10-17USB: hub.c: Add initial_descriptor_timeout module parameter for usbcoreJaroslav Kysela
This patch adds initial_descriptor_timeout module parameter for usbcore.ko to allow modify initial 64-byte USB_REQ_GET_DESCRIPTOR timeout for non-standard devices. For example, the SATA8000 device from DATAST0R Technology Corp requires about 10 seconds to send reply (probably it waits until inserted disk is ready for operation). Also, this patch adds missing usbcore parameters to Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.

2008-10-17USB: Export if an interface driver supports autosuspend.Sarah Sharp
Create a new sysfs file per interface named supports_autosuspend. This file returns true if an interface driver's .supports_autosuspend flag is set. It also returns true if the interface is unclaimed (since the USB core will autosuspend a device if an interface is not claimed). This new sysfs file will be useful for user space scripts to test whether a USB device correctly auto-suspends.

2008-10-17usb: vstusb.c : new driver for spectrometers used by Vernier Software & ↵Stephen Ware
Technology, Inc. This patch adds the vstusb driver to the drivers/usb/misc directory. This driver provides support for Vernier Software & Technology spectrometers, all made by Ocean Optics. The driver provides both IOCTL and read()/write() methods for sending raw data to spectrometers across the bulk channel. Each method allows for a configured timeout.
