2006-02-11[PATCH] select: fix returned timevalAndrew Morton
With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's `timeout' argument on return. We were writing back a timeout larger than the original. We _deliberately_ round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks us to. The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which was passed in. The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new timeout value to the old one and was returning that. It should just return the new timeout value. (We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in time.h. But this code open-codes it all). Cc: "David S.

2006-02-11[PATCH] x86-64: Fix HPET timer on x460Chris McDermott
[description from AK] The IBM Summit 3 chipset doesn't implement the HPET timer replacement option. Since the current Linux code relies on it use a mixed mode with both PIT for the interrupt and HPET counters for the time keeping. That was already implemented, but didn't work properly because it was still using the last interrupt offset in HPET. This resulted in x460 not booting. Fix this up by using the free running HPET counter. Shouldn't affect any other machine because they either use full HPET mode or no HPET at all. TBD needs a similar 32bit fix.

2006-02-11[PATCH] fstatat64 supportUlrich Drepper
The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement fstatat64. This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64 the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what is done for the other stat syscalls as well. This patch might break some other archs (those which define __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed). The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.

2006-02-10[PATCH] x86: don't initialise cpu_possible_map to all onesAndrew Morton
Initialising cpu_possible_map to all-ones with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU means that a) All for_each_cpu() loops will iterate across all NR_CPUS CPUs, rather than over possible ones. That can be quite expensive. b) Soon we'll be allocating per-cpu areas only for possible CPUs. So with CPU_MASK_ALL, we'll be wasting memory. I also switched voyager over to not use CPU_MASK_ALL in the non-CPU-hotplug case. Should be OK.. I note that parisc is also using CPU_MASK_ALL. Suggest that it stop doing that.

2006-02-10[PATCH] kexec: fix in free initrd when overlapped with crashkernel regionHaren Myneni
It is possible that the reserved crashkernel region can be overlapped with initrd since the bootloader sets the initrd location. When the initrd region is freed, the second kernel memory will not be contiguous. The Kexec_load can cause an oops since there is no contiguous memory to write the second kernel or this memory could be used in the first kernel itself and may not be part of the dump. For example, on powerpc, the initrd is located at 36MB and the crashkernel starts at 32MB. The kexec_load caused panic since writing into non-allocated memory (after 36MB). We could see the similar issue even on other archs. One possibility is to move the initrd outside of crashkernel region. But, the initrd region will be freed anyway before the system is up. This patch fixes this issue and frees only regions that are not part of crashkernel memory in case overlaps. Signed-off-by: Haren Myneni <haren@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: "Eric W.

2006-02-09[NETLINK]: Fix a severe bugAlexey Kuznetsov
netlink overrun was broken while improvement of netlink. Destination socket is used in the place where it was meant to be source socket, so that now overrun is never sent to user netlink sockets, when it should be, and it even can be set on kernel socket, which results in complete deadlock of rtnetlink. Suggested fix is to restore status quo passing source socket as additional argument to netlink_attachskb(). A little explanation: overrun is set on a socket, when it failed to receive some message and sender of this messages does not or even have no way to handle this error. This happens in two cases: 1. when kernel sends something. Kernel never retransmits and cannot wait for buffer space. 2. when user sends a broadcast and the message was not delivered to some recipients.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre Since: if (unlikely(__res || __ex_flag)) produces worse code on ARM than: if (unlikely(__res | __ex_flag)) I therefore made it more explicit: __res |= __ex_flag; if (unlikely(__res != 0)) so it is not seen as a typo again. Also made everything static inline rather than macros for better readability (both produce the same code after all). And finally added missing \t from multi-line assembly code.

2006-02-08[PATCH] block: implement elv_insert and use it (fix ordcolor flipping bug)Tejun Heo
q->ordcolor must only be flipped on initial queueing of a hardbarrier request. Constructing ordered sequence and requeueing used to pass through __elv_add_request() which flips q->ordcolor when it sees a barrier request. This patch separates out elv_insert() from __elv_add_request() and uses elv_insert() when constructing ordered sequence and requeueing. elv_insert() inserts the given request at the specified position and does nothing else.

2006-02-07[PATCH] powerpc: Thermal control for dual core G5sBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch adds a windfarm module, windfarm_pm112, for the dual core G5s (both 2 and 4 core models), keeping the machine from getting into vacuum-cleaner mode ;) For proper credits, the patch was initially written by Paul Mackerras, and slightly reworked by me to add overtemp handling among others. The patch also removes the sysfs attributes from windfarm_pm81 and windfarm_pm91 and instead adds code to the windfarm core to automagically expose attributes for sensor & controls.
