2007-01-11[PATCH] Revert bd_mount_mutex back to a semaphoreDavid Chinner
Revert bd_mount_mutex back to a semaphore so that xfs_freeze -f /mnt/newtest; xfs_freeze -u /mnt/newtest works safely and doesn't produce lockdep warnings. (XFS unlocks the semaphore from a different task, by design.

2007-01-11[PATCH] NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page()Trond Myklebust
NFS: Fix race in nfs_release_page() invalidate_inode_pages2() may find the dirty bit has been set on a page owing to the fact that the page may still be mapped after it was locked. Only after the call to unmap_mapping_range() are we sure that the page can no longer be dirtied. In order to fix this, NFS has hooked the releasepage() method and tries to write the page out between the call to unmap_mapping_range() and the call to remove_mapping(). This, however leads to deadlocks in the page reclaim code, where the page may be locked without holding a reference to the inode or dentry. Fix is to add a new address_space_operation, launder_page(), which will attempt to write out a dirty page without releasing the page lock.

Using device_initcall makes it happen for every platform that compiles this file in. This is really bad, for obvious reasons. Instead, we use the .init field of the machine description. If the platform needs the hook to do something specific it can provides its own function and call mpc52xx_declare_of_platform_devices from there. If not, the mpc52xx_declare_of_platform_devices function can directly be used as the init hook.

When we switched over to the generic BUG mechanism we forgot to change the assembly code which open-codes a WARN_ON() in enter_rtas(), so the bug table got corrupted. This patch provides an EMIT_BUG_ENTRY macro for use in assembly code, and uses it in entry_64.S. Tested with CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE on ppc64 but not without -- I tried to turn it off but it wouldn't go away; I suspect Aunt Tillie probably needed it. This version gets __FILE__ and __LINE__ right in the assembly version -- rather than saying include/asm-powerpc/bug.h line 21 every time which is a little suboptimal.

2007-01-08[ARM] Resolve fuse and direct-IO failures due to missing cache flushesRussell King
fuse does not work on ARM due to cache incoherency issues - fuse wants to use get_user_pages() to copy data from the current process into kernel space. However, since this accesses userspace via the kernel mapping, the kernel mapping can be out of date wrt data written to userspace. This can lead to unpredictable behaviour (in the case of fuse) or data corruption for direct-IO. This resolves debian bug #402876 Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-01-08[ARM] pass vma for flush_anon_page()Russell King
Since get_user_pages() may be used with processes other than the current process and calls flush_anon_page(), flush_anon_page() has to cope in some way with non-current processes. It may not be appropriate, or even desirable to flush a region of virtual memory cache in the current process when that is different to the process that we want the flush to occur for. Therefore, pass the vma into flush_anon_page() so that the architecture can work out whether the 'vmaddr' is for the current process or not. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2007-01-05[PATCH] KVM: Improve interrupt responseDor Laor
The current interrupt injection mechanism might delay an interrupt under the following circumstances: - if injection fails because the guest is not interruptible (rflags.IF clear, or after a 'mov ss' or 'sti' instruction). Userspace can check rflags, but the other cases or not testable under the current API. - if injection fails because of a fault during delivery. This probably never happens under normal guests. - if injection fails due to a physical interrupt causing a vmexit so that it can be handled by the host. In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing the interactive feel and interrupt throughput of the guest. This patch fixes the situation by allowing userspace to request an exit when the 'interrupt window' opens, so that it can re-inject the interrupt at the right time. Guest interactivity is very visibly improved.

2006-12-30[PATCH] SPI: define null tx_buf to mean "shift out zeroes"David Brownell
Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are (from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads. Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from "undefined" to "will shift zeroes". This lets protocol drivers (like the ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior. It's what most controller drivers in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing, and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels. This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.

2006-12-30[PATCH] change WARN_ON back to "BUG: at ..."Ingo Molnar
WARN_ON() ever triggering is a kernel bug. Do not try to paper over this fact by suggesting to the user that this is 'only' a warning, as the following recent commit does: commit 30e25b71e725b150585e17888b130e3324f8cf7c Author: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Date: Fri Dec 8 02:36:24 2006 -0800 [PATCH] Fix generic WARN_ON message A warning is a warning, not a BUG. ( it might make sense to rename BUG() to CRASH() and BUG_ON() to CRASH_ON(), but that does not change the fact that WARN_ON() signals a kernel bug. ) i and others objected to this change during lkml review: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116115160710533&w=2 still the change slipped upstream - grumble :) Also, use the standard "BUG: " format to make it easier to grep logs and to make it easier to google for kernel bugs.

2006-12-30[ARM] 4078/1: Fix ARM copypage cache coherency problemsRichard Purdie
If PG_dcache_dirty is set for a page, we need to flush the source page before performing any copypage operation using a different virtual address. This fixes the copypage implementations for XScale, StrongARM and ARMv6. This patch fixes segmentation faults seen in the dynamic linker under the usage patterns in glibc 2.4/2.5.

2006-12-30[ARM] 4077/1: iop13xx: fix __io() macroDan Williams
Since iop13xx defines the PCI I/O spaces with physical resource addresses the __io macro needs to perform the physical to virtual conversion. I incorrectly assumed that this would be handled by ioremap, but drivers (like e1000) directly dereference the address returned from __io.

2006-12-30[ARM] 4074/1: Flat loader stack alignmentPaul Brook
The ARM EABI requires doubleword (8-byte) stack alignment at all public entry points. The patch below makes the bFLT loader honour this. It's always safe to start with a doubleword aligned stack so it doesn't seem worth making this conditional on CONFIG_AEABI.

2006-12-30[ARM] 4073/1: Prevent s3c24xx drivers from including asm/arch/hardware.h and ↵Arnaud Patard
asm/arch/irqs.h As reminded in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/23/26, one should use asm/hardware.h and asm/irq.h but absent-minded devs like me tends to use asm/arch/hardware.h and/or asm/arch/irqs.h. This patch aims at preventing such things. In order to make it work, I had to modify asm-arm/irq.h too so that it can be included from assembly files. Also, as a side effect, I had to modify some headers who were using the asm/arch/hardware.h or asm/arch/irqs.h.
