2008-07-12ov7670: clean up ov7670_read semanticsAndres Salomon
Cortland Setlow pointed out a bug in ov7670.c where the result from ov7670_read() was just being checked for !0, rather than <0. This made me realize that ov7670_read's semantics were rather confusing; it both fills in 'value' with the result, and returns it. This is goes against general kernel convention; so rather than fixing callers, let's fix the function. This makes ov7670_read return <0 in the case of an error, and 0 upon success. Thus, code like: res = ov7670_read(...); if (!res) goto error; ..will work properly.

2008-07-12fbdev: bugfix for multiprocess defioJaya Kumar
This patch is a bugfix for how defio handles multiple processes manipulating the same framebuffer. Thanks to Bernard Blackham for identifying this bug. It occurs when two applications mmap the same framebuffer and concurrently write to the same page. Normally, this doesn't occur since only a single process mmaps the framebuffer. The symptom of the bug is that the mapping applications will hang. The cause is that defio incorrectly tries to add the same page twice to the pagelist. The solution I have is to walk the pagelist and check for a duplicate before adding. Since I needed to walk the pagelist, I now also keep the pagelist in sorted order.

2008-07-12[SCSI] fusion: default MSI to disabled for SPI and FC controllersJames Bottomley
There's a fault on the FC controllers that makes them not respond correctly to MSI. The SPI controllers are fine, but are likely to be onboard on older motherboards which don't handle MSI correctly, so default both these cases to disabled. Enable by setting the module parameter mpt_msi_enable=1. For the SAS case, enable MSI by default, but it can be disabled by setting the module parameter mpt_msi_enable=0.

Currently, ipr does not support HDIO_GET_IDENTITY to SATA devices. An oops occurs if userspace attempts to send the command. Since hald issues the command, ensure we fail the ioctl in ipr.

2008-07-11libata-acpi: filter out DIPM enableTejun Heo
Some BIOSen enable DIPM via _GTF which causes command timeouts under certain configuration. This didn't occur on 2.6.25 because 2.6.25 defaulted to SRST, so _GTF wasn't executed during boot probe, so ahci host reset disabled DIPM and as _GTF wasn't executed after SRST, DIPM wasn't enabled. On 2.6.26, hardreset is used during probe and after probe _GTF is executed enabling DIPM and thus the failures. This patch could theoretically disable DIPM on machines which used to have it enabled on 2.6.25 but AFAIK ahci is currently the only driver which uses SATA ACPI hierarchy (_SDD) and as the host reset would have always disabled DIPM, this shouldn't happen.

2008-07-10tun: Persistent devices can get stuck in xoff stateMax Krasnyansky
The scenario goes like this. App stops reading from tun/tap. TX queue gets full and driver does netif_stop_queue(). App closes fd and TX queue gets flushed as part of the cleanup. Next time the app opens tun/tap and starts reading from it but the xoff state is not cleared. We're stuck. Normally xoff state is cleared when netdev is brought up. But in the case of persistent devices this happens only during initial setup. The fix is trivial. If device is already up when an app opens it we clear xoff state and that gets things moving again.

As soon as init_registers() was called, the rt2400/rt2500 would start raising beacondone interrupts.

This will make all drivers initialize it to 0 regardless if they are raising beacondone interrupts or not, since it only makes sense to have it completely disabled.

2008-07-08palm_bk3710: fix IDECLK period calculationSergei Shtylyov
The driver uses completely bogus rounding formula for calculating period from the IDECLK frequency which gives one-off period values (e.g. 11 ns with 100 MHz IDECLK) which in turn can lead to overclocked IDE transfer timings. Actually, rounding is just wrong in this case, so use a mere division for a safe result. While at it, also: - give 'ide_palm_clk' variable a more suitable name; - get rid of the useless 'ideclkp' variable; - drop the LISP stype 'p' postfix from the 'clkp' variable's name. :-) Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> Cc: mcherkashin@ru.mvista.com Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

2008-07-08sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmapBernhard Walle
This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS (or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like: /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start (hex number) end (hex number) type (string) ... /1/start end type With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map). --------- 8< -------------------------- #!/bin/sh cd /sys/firmware/memmap for dir in * ; do start=$(cat $dir/start) end=$(cat $dir/end) type=$(cat $dir/type) printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type" done --------- >8 -------------------------- That patch only provides the needed interface: 1. The sysfs interface. 2. The structure and enumeration definition. 3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early() that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for example) to add the contents to the interface. If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's. The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap' and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory map provided via the firmware. So kexec can: - use the original memory map for rebooting, - use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump case that should only represent the memory of the system. The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

2008-07-08x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4Mike Travis
* Introduce a new PER_CPU macro called "EARLY_PER_CPU". This is used by some per_cpu variables that are initialized and accessed before there are per_cpu areas allocated. ["Early" in respect to per_cpu variables is "earlier than the per_cpu areas have been setup".] This patchset adds these new macros: DEFINE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name, _initvalue) EXPORT_EARLY_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(_name) DECLARE_EARLY_PER_CPU(_type, _name) early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) early_per_cpu_map(_name, _idx) early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early map and pointer. It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map elements to "_initvalue". The early_* macros provide access to the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early pointer. This pointer is initialized to point to the early map but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup. After that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable. The early_per_cpu() macro is not very efficient but does show how to access the variable if you have a function that can be called both "early" and "late". It tests the early ptr to be NULL, and if not then it's still valid. Otherwise, the per_cpu variable is used instead: #define early_per_cpu(_name, _cpu) \ (early_per_cpu_ptr(_name) ? \ early_per_cpu_ptr(_name)[_cpu] : \ per_cpu(_name, _cpu)) A better method is to actually check the pointer manually. In the case below, numa_set_node can be called both "early" and "late": void __cpuinit numa_set_node(int cpu, int node) { int *cpu_to_node_map = early_per_cpu_ptr(x86_cpu_to_node_map); if (cpu_to_node_map) cpu_to_node_map[cpu] = node; else per_cpu(x86_cpu_to_node_map, cpu) = node; } * Add a flag "arch_provides_topology_pointers" that indicates pointers to topology cpumask_t maps are available. Otherwise, use the function returning the cpumask_t value. This is useful if cpumask_t set size is very large to avoid copying data on to/off of the stack. * The coverage of CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS has been increased while the non-debug case has been optimized a bit. * Remove an unreferenced compiler warning in drivers/base/topology.c * Clean up #ifdef in setup.c For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.
