2006-06-25[PATCH] R3964: fix GFP_KERNEL allocations in timer functionDavid Woodhouse
In the error case, add_msg() gets called from timer functions, so should be using GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL. Ref: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6659. Thanks to Christian Werner <chw@ch-werner.de> for reporting, and for the initial fix.

2006-06-25[PATCH] advansys section fixesRandy Dunlap
Priority: not critical. Mark 3 functions __init. Saves a little memory. This makes these functions' calls to AdvWaitEEPCmd() (which is __init) be clean (i.e., eliminates text -> init -> text call chain).

2006-06-25[PATCH] char/ip2: more section fixes (replacement)Randy Dunlap
Priority: tossup. In theory some of these (previously) __init functions could be called after init, but that problem has not been observed AFAIK.

2006-06-25[PATCH] Add v3020 RTC supportRaphael Assenat
This patch adds support for the v3020 RTC from EM Microelectronic. The v3020 RTC is designed to be connected on a bus using only one data bit. Since any data bit may be used, it is necessary to specify this to the driver by passing a struct v3020_platform_data pointer (see include/linux/rtc-v3020.h) to the driver. Part of the following code comes from the kernel patchs produced by Compulab for their products. The original file (available here: http://raph.people.8d.com/misc/emv3020.c) was released under the terms of the GPL license.

2006-06-25[PATCH] RTC: rtc-dev UIE emulationAtsushi Nemoto
Import genrtc's RTC UIE emulation (CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X) to rtc-dev driver with slight adjustments/refinements. This makes UIE-less rtc drivers work better with programs doing read/poll on /dev/rtc, such as hwclock. This emulation should not harm rtc drivers with UIE support, since rtc_dev_ioctl() calls underlaying rtc driver's ioctl() first.

2006-06-25[PATCH] "RTC-framework" driver for DS1307 and similar RTC chipsDavid Brownell
This is an "RTC-framework" driver for DS1307 and similar RTC chips, It should be a full replacement for the existing ds1337.c driver (using the older RTC glue), giving a net increase in the number of RTC chips that work out-of-the-box. There's a whole cluster of RTCs that are very similar, but the 1337 driver was a bit too picky to work with most of them. Still no support for RTC alarm IRQs (on chips that support them).

2006-06-25[PATCH] IDE CD end-of media error fixAlan Cox
This is a patch from Alan that fixes a real ide-cd.c regression causing bogus "Media Check" failures for perfectly valid Fedora install ISOs, on certain CD-ROM drives. This is a forward port to 2.6.16 (from RHEL) of the minimal changes for the end of media problem. It may not be sufficient for some controllers (promise notably) and it does not touch the locking so the error path locking is as horked as in mainstream. From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> I have ported the patch to 2.6.17-rc4 and tested it by provoking end-of-media IO errors with an unaligned ISO image. Unlike the vanilla kernel, the patched kernel interpreted the error condition correctly with 512 byte granularity: hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 } ide: failed opcode was: unknown ATAPI device hdc: Error: Illegal request -- (Sense key=0x05) Illegal mode for this track or incompatible medium -- (asc=0x64, ascq=0x00) The failed "Read 10" packet command was: "28 00 00 04 fb 78 00 00 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 " end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 1306080 Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163260 Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163261 Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163262 the unpatched kernel produces an incorrect error dump: hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 } ide: failed opcode was: unknown end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 1306080 Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163260 hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 } ide: failed opcode was: unknown end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 1306088 Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163261 hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: command error: error=0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 } ide: failed opcode was: unknown end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 1306096 Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 163262 I do not have the right type of CD-ROM drive to reproduce the end-of-media data corruption bug myself, but this same patch in RHEL solved it.

2006-06-25[PATCH] idetape gcc 4.1 warning fixDaniel Walker
In both the read and write cases it will return an error if copy_{from/to}_user faults. However, I let the driver try to read/write as much as it can just as it normally would , then finally it returns an error if there was one. This was the most straight forward way to handle the error , since there isn't a clear way to clean up the buffers on error . I moved retval in idetape_chrdev_write() down into the actual code blocks since it's really once used there, and it conflicted with my ret variable.

2006-06-25[PATCH] Rewritten backlight infrastructure for portable Apple computersMichael Hanselmann
This patch contains a total rewrite of the backlight infrastructure for portable Apple computers. Backward compatibility is retained. A sysfs interface allows userland to control the brightness with more steps than before. Userland is allowed to upload a brightness curve for different monitors, similar to Mac OS X.

2006-06-25[PATCH] mm: remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn_range and drop VM_SHMChristoph Lameter
Remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn range from device drivers and get rid of VM_SHM. remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO. There is no need to set VM_SHM since it does nothing. VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not place pages on the LRU. The pages are therefore never subject to swap anyways. Remove all the vm_flags settings before calling remap_pfn_range. After removing all the vm_flag settings no use of VM_SHM is left. Drop it.

2006-06-24Revert "[PATCH] usb: drivers/usb/core/devio.c dereferences a userspace pointer"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 786dc1d3d7333f269e17d742886eac2188a2d9cc. As Al so eloquently points out, the patch is crap. The old code was fine, the new code was bogus. It never dereferenced a user pointer, the "->" operator was to an array member, which gives the _address_ of the member (in user space), not an actual dereference at all.
