2008-07-06x86: KVM guest: Add memory clobber to hypercallsAnthony Liguori
Hypercalls can modify arbitrary regions of memory. Make sure to indicate this in the clobber list. This fixes a hang when using KVM_GUEST kernel built with GCC 4.3.0. This was originally spotted and analyzed by Marcelo. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-07-05Move _RET_IP_ and _THIS_IP_ to include/linux/kernel.hEduard - Gabriel Munteanu
These two macros are useful beyond lock debugging. Moved definitions from include/linux/debug_locks.h to include/linux/kernel.h, so code that needs them does not have to include the former, which would have been a less intuitive choice of a header.

2008-07-04cpumask: introduce new APIsStephen Rothwell
In linux-next there is a commit ("x86: Add performance variants of cpumask operators") which, as part of the 4096 cpu support work adds some new APIs for dealing with cpu masks. Add trivial versions of these now so that subsystems can update in a timely manner and avoid conflicts in linux-next and the next merge window.

2008-07-04olpc: sdhci: add quirk for the Marvell CaFe's vdd/powerup issueAndres Salomon
This has been sitting around unloved for way too long.. The Marvell CaFe chip's SD implementation chokes during card insertion if one attempts to set the voltage and power up in the same SDHCI_POWER_CONTROL register write. This adds a quirk that does that particular dance in two steps. It also adds an entry to pci_ids.h for the CaFe chip's SD device.

2008-07-04security: filesystem capabilities: fix fragile setuid fixup codeAndrew G. Morgan
This commit includes a bugfix for the fragile setuid fixup code in the case that filesystem capabilities are supported (in access()).

2008-07-04Introduce rculist.hStephen Rothwell
In linux-next there is a commit ("rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h") that moved the rcu related list iterators from list.h to rculist.h. Add a trivial version of the file now so that various subsystem trees can start using it now for -next changes and so reduce the build errors caused by adding uses of the moved functions.

2008-07-04[MIPS] Fix bug in atomic_sub_if_positive.Ralf Baechle
The branch optimization fixes in 2.6.21 introduced a bug in atomic_sub_if_positive that causes it to return even when the sc instruction fails. The result is that e.g. down_trylock becomes unreliable as the semaphore counter is not always decremented. Original MUA-shredded patch from Morten Larsen <mlarsen@broadcom.com>.

2008-07-03slub: Do not use 192 byte sized cache if minimum alignment is 128 byteChristoph Lameter
The 192 byte cache is not necessary if we have a basic alignment of 128 byte. If it would be used then the 192 would be aligned to the next 128 byte boundary which would result in another 256 byte cache. Two 256 kmalloc caches cause sysfs to complain about a duplicate entry. MIPS needs 128 byte aligned kmalloc caches and spits out warnings on boot without this patch.

2008-07-01Properly notify block layer of sync writesJens Axboe
fsync_buffers_list() and sync_dirty_buffer() both issue async writes and then immediately wait on them. Conceptually, that makes them sync writes and we should treat them as such so that the IO schedulers can handle them appropriately. This patch fixes a write starvation issue that Lin Ming reported, where xx is stuck for more than 2 minutes because of a large number of synchronous IO in the system: INFO: task kjournald:20558 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

When an SKB cannot be chained to a session, the current code attempts to "restore" its ip_summed field from lro_mgr->ip_summed. However, lro_mgr->ip_summed does not hold the original value; in fact, we'd better not touch skb->ip_summed since it is not modified by the code in the path leading to a failure to chain it.

2008-06-24KVM: close timer injection race window in __vcpu_runMarcelo Tosatti
If a timer fires after kvm_inject_pending_timer_irqs() but before local_irq_disable() the code will enter guest mode and only inject such timer interrupt the next time an unrelated event causes an exit. It would be simpler if the timer->pending irq conversion could be done with IRQ's disabled, so that the above problem cannot happen. For now introduce a new vcpu requests bit to cancel guest entry.
