2006-07-31[PATCH] rivafb/nvidiafb: race between register_framebuffer and *_bl_initGuido Guenther
Since we now use the generic backlight infrastructure, I think we need to call rivafb_bl_init before calling register_framebuffer since otherwise rivafb_bl_init might race with the framebuffer layer already opening the device and setting up the video mode. In this case we might end up with a not yet fully intialized backlight (info->bl_dev still NULL) when calling riva_bl_set_power via rivafb_set_par/rivafb_load_video_mode and the kernel dies without any further notice during boot. This fixes booting current git on a PB 6,1. In this case radeonfb/atyfb would be affected too - I can fix that too but don't have any hardware to test this on. Cc: "Antonino A.

2006-07-31[PATCH] powermac: More powermac backlight fixesMichael Hanselmann
This patch fixes several problems: - The legacy backlight value might be set at interrupt time. Introduced a worker to prevent it from directly calling the backlight code. - via-pmu allows the backlight to be grabbed, in which case we need to prevent other kernel code from changing the brightness. - Don't send PMU requests in via-pmu-backlight when the machine is about to sleep or waking up. - More Kconfig fixes.

2006-07-31[PATCH] radeonfb sleep fixesVolker Braun
Many IBM Thinkpad T4* models and some R* and X* with radeon video cards draw too much power when suspended to RAM, reducing drastically the battery lifetime. The solution is to enable suspend-to-D2 on these machines. They are whitelisted through their subsystem vendor/device ID. This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3022 The patch introduces a framework to alter the pm_mode and reinit_func fields of the radeonfb_info structure based on a whitelist. This should facilitate future hardware-dependent workarounds. The workaround for the Samsung P35 that is already in the radeonfb code has been rewritten using this framework. The behavior can be overridden with module options: i) video=radeonfb:force_sleep=1 enable suspend-to-D2 also on non-whitelisted machines (useful for testing new notebook models), ii) video=radeonfb:ignore_devlist=1 Disable checking the whitelist and do not apply any workarounds.

2006-07-31[PATCH] fbdev: statically link the framebuffer notification functionsAntonino A. Daplas
The backlight and lcd subsystems can be notified by the framebuffer layer of blanking events. However, these subsystems, as a whole, can function independently from the framebuffer layer. But in order to enable to the lcd and backlight subsystems, the framebuffer has to be compiled also, effectively sucking in a huge amount of unneeded code. To prevent dependency problems, separate out the framebuffer notification mechanism from the framebuffer layer and permanently link it to the kernel.

2006-07-31[PATCH] Fix swsusp with PNP BIOSOndrej Zary
swsusp is unable to suspend my machine (DTK FortisPro TOP-5A notebook) with kernel 2.6.17.5 because it's unable to suspend PNP device 00:16 (mouse). The problem is in PNP BIOS. pnp_bus_suspend() calls pnp_stop_dev() for the device if the device can be disabled according to pnp_can_disable(). The problem is that pnpbios_disable_resources() returns -EPERM if the device is not dynamic (!pnpbios_is_dynamic()) but insert_device() happily sets PNP_DISABLE capability/flag even if the device is not dynamic. So we try to disable non-dynamic devices which will fail. This patch prevents insert_device() from setting PNP_DISABLE if the device is not dynamic and fixes suspend on my system.

2006-07-31[PATCH] Process Events: Fix biarch compatibility issue. use __u64 timestampChandra Seetharaman
Events sent by Process Events Connector from a 64-bit kernel are not binary compatible with a 32-bit userspace program because the "timestamp" field (struct timespec) is not arch independent. This affects the fields that follow "timestamp" as they will be be off by 8 bytes. This is a problem for 32-bit userspace programs running with 64-bit kernels on ppc64, s390, x86-64.. any "biarch" system. Matt had submitted a different solution to lkml as an RFC earlier. We have since switched to a solution recommended by Evgeniy Polyakov. This patch fixes the problem by changing the timestamp to be a __u64, which stores the number of nanoseconds. Tested on a x86_64 system with both 32 bit application and 64 bit application and on a i386 system.

The thermal control for the Xserve G5s had a few issues. For one, the way to program the RPM fans speeds into the FCU is different between it and the desktop models, which I didn't figure out until recently, and it was missing a control loop for the slots fan, running it too fast. Both of those problems were causing the machine to be much more noisy than necessary. This patch also changes the fixed value of the slots fan for desktop G5s to 40% instead of 50%.

2006-07-26[PATCH] Reorganize the cpufreq cpu hotplug locking to not be totally bizareArjan van de Ven
The patch below moves the cpu hotplugging higher up in the cpufreq layering; this is needed to avoid recursive taking of the cpu hotplug lock and to otherwise detangle the mess. The new rules are: 1. you must do lock_cpu_hotplug() around the following functions: __cpufreq_driver_target __cpufreq_governor (for CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS operation only) __cpufreq_set_policy 2. governer methods (.governer) must NOT take the lock_cpu_hotplug() lock in any way; they are called with the lock taken already 3. if your governer spawns a thread that does things, like calling __cpufreq_driver_target, your thread must honor rule #1. 4. the policy lock and other cpufreq internal locks nest within the lock_cpu_hotplug() lock. I'm not entirely happy about how the __cpufreq_governor rule ended up (conditional locking rule depending on the argument) but basically all callers pass this as a constant so it's not too horrible. The patch also removes the cpufreq_governor() function since during the locking audit it turned out to be entirely unused (so no need to fix it) The patch works on my testbox, but it could use more testing (otoh... it can't be much worse than the current code) Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
