device_driver' This patch fixes the bug reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11681. "Lots of device drivers register a 'struct device_driver' with the '.bus' member set to '&platform_bus_type'. This is wrong, since the platform_bus functions expect the 'struct device_driver' to be wrapped up in a 'struct platform_driver' which provides some additional callbacks (like suspend_late, resume_early). The effect may be that platform_suspend_late() uses bogus data outside the device_driver struct as a pointer pointer to the device driver's suspend_late() function or other hard to reproduce failures."(Lothar Wassmann) Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> Acked-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Acked-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2009-03-18sparc64: Fix crash with /proc/iomemMikulas Patocka
When you compile kernel on Sparc64 with heap memory checking and type "cat /proc/iomem", you get a crash, because pointers in struct resource are uninitialized. Most code fills struct resource with zeros, so I assume that it is responsibility of the caller of request_resource to initialized it, not the responsibility of request_resource functuion. After 2.6.29 is out, there could be a check for uninitialized fields added to request_resource to avoid crashes like this. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-03-18[S390] make page table upgrade work againMartin Schwidefsky
After TASK_SIZE now gives the current size of the address space the upgrade of a 64 bit process from 3 to 4 levels of page table needs to use the arch_mmap_check hook to catch large mmap lengths.

2009-03-18[S390] make page table walking more robustMartin Schwidefsky
Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table. To make the upgrade work again another fix is required.

2009-03-18[S390] Dont check for pfn_valid() in uaccess_pt.cGerald Schaefer

2009-03-17Fast TSC calibration: calculate proper frequency error boundsLinus Torvalds
In order for ntpd to correctly synchronize the clocks, the frequency of the system clock must not be off by more than 500 ppm (or, put another way, 1:2000), or ntpd will end up giving up on trying to synchronize properly, and ends up reseting the clock in jumps instead. The fast TSC PIT calibration sometimes failed this test - it was assuming that the PIT reads always took about one microsecond each (2us for the two reads to get a 16-bit timer), and that calibrating TSC to the PIT over 15ms should thus be sufficient to get much closer than 500ppm (max 2us error on both sides giving 4us over 15ms: a 270 ppm error value). However, that assumption does not always hold: apparently some hardware is either very much slower at reading the PIT registers, or there was other noise causing at least one machine to get 700+ ppm errors. So instead of using a fixed 15ms timing loop, this changes the fast PIT calibration to read the TSC delta over the individual PIT timer reads, and use the result to calculate the error bars on the PIT read timing properly. We then successfully calibrate the TSC only if the maximum error bars fall below 500ppm. In the process, we also relax the timing to allow up to 25ms for the calibration, although it can happen much faster depending on hardware.

2009-03-17Fix potential fast PIT TSC calibration startup glitchLinus Torvalds
During bootup, when we reprogram the PIT (programmable interval timer) to start counting down from 0xffff in order to use it for the fast TSC calibration, we should also make sure to delay a bit afterwards to allow the PIT hardware to actually start counting with the new value. That will happens at the next CLK pulse (1.193182 MHz), so the easiest way to do that is to just wait at least one microsecond after programming the new PIT counter value. We do that by just reading the counter value back once - which will take about 2us on PC hardware.

2009-03-17sh: Flush only the needed range when unmapping a VMA.Paul Mundt
This follows the ARM change from Aaro Koskinen: When unmapping N pages (e.g. shared memory) the amount of TLB flushes done can be (N*PAGE_SIZE/ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE)*N although it should be N at maximum. With PREEMPT kernel ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE is 8 pages, so there is a noticeable performance penalty when unmapping a large VMA and the system is spending its time in flush_tlb_range(). The problem is that tlb_end_vma() is always flushing the full VMA range. The subrange that needs to be flushed can be calculated by tlb_remove_tlb_entry(). This approach was suggested by Hugh Dickins, and is also used by other arches. The speed increase is roughly 3x for 8M mappings and for larger mappings even more. Bits and peices are taken from the ARM patch as well as the existing arch/um implementation that is quite similar. The end result is a significant reduction in both partial and full TLB flushes initiated through flush_tlb_range(). At the same time, the nommu implementation was broken, had a superfluous cache flush, and subsequently would have triggered a BUG_ON() if a code-path had triggered it. Tidy this up for correctness and provide a nopped-out implementation there.
