2007-04-13[POWERPC] DMA 4GB boundary protectionJake Moilanen
There are many adapters which cannot handle DMAing across any 4 GB boundary. For instance, the latest Emulex adapters. This normally is not an issue as firmware gives dma-windows under 4gigs. However, some of the new System-P boxes have dma-windows above 4gigs, and this present a problem. During initialization of the IOMMU tables, the last entry at each 4GB boundary is marked as used. Thus no mappings can cross the boundary. If a table ends at a 4GB boundary, the entry is not marked as used. A boot option to remove this 4GB protection is given w/ protect4gb=off. This exposes the potential issue for driver and hardware development purposes.

This common uevent handler allow the several bus types based on of_device to generate the uevent properly and avoiding code duplication. This handlers take a struct device as argument and can therefore be used as the uevent call directly if no special treatment is needed for the bus.

2007-04-08[PATCH] Proper fix for highmem kmap_atomic functions for VMI for 2.6.21Zachary Amsden
Since lazy MMU batching mode still allows interrupts to enter, it is possible for interrupt handlers to try to use kmap_atomic, which fails when lazy mode is active, since the PTE update to highmem will be delayed. The best workaround is to issue an explicit flush in kmap_atomic_functions case; this is the only way nested PTE updates can happen in the interrupt handler. Thanks to Jeremy Fitzhardinge for noting the bug and suggestions on a fix. This patch gets reverted again when we start 2.6.22 and the bug gets fixed differently.

2007-04-02[PATCH] i386: fix file_read_actor() and pipe_read() for original i386 systemsThomas Gleixner
The __copy_to_user_inatomic() calls in file_read_actor() and pipe_read() are broken on original i386 machines, where WP-works-ok == false, as __copy_to_user_inatomic() on such systems calls functions which might sleep and/or contain cond_resched() calls inside of a kmap_atomic() region. The original check for WP-works-ok was in access_ok(), but got moved during the 2.5 series to fix a race vs. swap. Return the number of bytes to copy in the case where we are in an atomic region, so the non atomic code pathes in file_read_actor() and pipe_read() are taken. This could be optimized to avoid the kmap_atomicby moving the check for WP-works-ok into fault_in_pages_writeable(), but this is more intrusive and can be done later.

2007-04-02[PATCH] Fix microcode-related suspend problemRafael J. Wysocki
Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code ordering that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode driver to hang during the resume. The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in its CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and hangs. It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the microcode stored in memory during the resume instead of trying to load it from disk. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

ia64 expects following vm layout: == low memory [register-stack grows up] [memory-stack grows down] == high memory But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the stack *might* start. Stack randomization will result in the memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if you were very unlucky right on top of it!).

2007-03-29[PATCH] uml: fix LVM crashJason Lunz
Permit lvm to create logical volumes without crashing UML. When device-mapper's DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD ioctl is called to create a new device, dev_create()->dm_create()->alloc_dev()-> blk_queue_bounce_limit(md->queue, BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) is called. blk_queue_bounce_limit(BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) calls init_emergency_isa_pool() if blk_max_pfn < blk_max_low_pfn. This is the case on UML, but init_emergency_isa_pool() hits BUG_ON(!isa_page_pool) because there doesn't seem to be a dma zone on UML for mempool_create() to allocate from. Most architectures seem to have max_low_pfn == max_pfn, but UML doesn't because of the uml_reserved chunk it keeps for itself. From what I can see, max_pfn and max_low_pfn don't get much use after the bootmem-allocator stops being used anyway, except that they initialize the block layer's blk_max_low_pfn/blk_max_pfn. This ensures init_emergency_isa_pool() doesn't crash uml in this situation by setting max_low_pfn == max_pfn in mem_init().

Commit 62f96cb01e8de7a5daee472e540f726db2801499 introduced per-devices queues and locks, which was fine as far as it went, but left in place a global which controlled access to submitting requests to the host. This should have been made per-device as well, since it causes I/O hangs when multiple block devices are in use. This patch fixes that by replacing the global with an activity flag in the device structure in order to tell whether the queue is currently being run.
