2005-06-21[PATCH] md: improve the interface to sync_requestNeilBrown
1/ change the return value (which is number-of-sectors synced) from 'int' to 'sector_t'. The number of sectors is usually easily small enough to fit in an int, but if resync needs to abort, it may want to return the total number of remaining sectors, which could be large. Also errors cannot be returned as negative numbers now, so use 0 instead 2/ Add a 'skipped' return parameter to allow the array to report that it skipped the sectors. This allows md to take this into account in the speed calculations. Currently there is no important skipping, but the bitmap-based-resync that is coming will use this.

2005-06-21[PATCH] md: improve locking on 'safemode' and move superblock writesNeilBrown
When md marks the superblock dirty before a write, it calls generic_make_request (to write the superblock) from within generic_make_request (to write the first dirty block), which could cause problems later. With this patch, the superblock write is always done by the helper thread, and write request are delayed until that write completes. Also, the locking around marking the array dirty and writing the superblock is improved to avoid possible races.

2005-06-21[PATCH] md: merge md_enter_safemode into md_check_recoveryNeilBrown
md_enter_safemode checks if it is time to mark the md superblock as 'clean'. i.e. if all writes have completed and a suitable delay has passed. This is currently called from md_handle_safemode which in-turn is called (almost) every time md_check_recovery is called, and from the end of md_do_sync which causes the mddev->thread to run, which will always call md_check_recovery as well. So it doesn't need to be a separate function and fits quite well into md_check_recovery. The "almost" is because multipathd calls md_check_recovery but not md_handle_safemode. This is OK because the code from md_enter_safemode is a no-op if mddev->safemode == 0, which it always is for a multipathd (providing we don't allow it to be set to 2 on a signal...)

Also, the "last_used" device number might be out-of-range after the number of devices is reduced, so we set it to 0.

2005-06-21[PATCH] New framebuffer fonts + updated 12x22 font availableJurriaan
Improve the fonts for use with the framebuffer. I've added all the characters marked 'FIXME' in the sun12x22 font and created a 10x18 font (based on the sun12x22 font) and a 7x14 font (based on the vga8x16 font). This patch is non-intrusive, no options are enabled by default so most users won't notice a thing. I am placing my changes under the GPL, however, I've not seen any copyright notices on the sun12x22 font and the vga8x16 font which I derived my new fonts from so I don't know what the copyright status is.

2005-06-21[PATCH] VGA to fbcon fix.James Simmons
Currently when going from vgacon to fbcon the VT screenbuffer are often different sizes. In the case when they are different sizes a new VT screenbuffer is allocated and the contents are copied into the new buffer. Currently the amount copied from VGA text memory to the new screenbuf is the size of the framebuffer console. If the framebuffer console new VT screen buffer is greater than the VGA text memory size then we get some of the VGA BIOS contents as well. This patch will only allow you to copy up to the size of VGA text memory now. The rest is filled with erase characters.

2005-06-21[PATCH] s1d13xxxfb linkage fixAndrew Morton
s1d13xxxfb_remove() is referenced from s1d13xxxfb_probe(), which is marked __devinit(). So s1d13xxxfb_remove() cannot be marked __devexit. Does this all make sense? Clearly the __devexit section will still be in core when the __devinit code is run, if the driver was loaded as a module. But I suppose that if the driver is statically linked, the __devexit section might be dropped early in boot. Still, we wouldn't drop __devexit prior to initcall completion, at which point the __devinit code has all been run anyway. verdict: this code was legal and made sense. Is this a generic problem, or an arm-specific problem?

2005-06-21[PATCH] isofs: show hidden files, add granularity for assoc/hidden files flagsJeremy White
The current isofs treatment of hidden files is flawed in two ways. First, it does not provide sufficient granularity; it hides both 'hidden' files and 'associated' files (resource fork for Mac files). Second, the default behavior to completely strip hidden files, while an admirable implementation of the spec, is a poor choice given the real world use of hidden files as a poor mans copy protection scheme for MSDOS and Windows based systems. A longer description of this is available here: http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0205.3/0267.html This patch was originally built after a few private conversations with Alan Cox; I shamefully failed to persist in seeing it go forward, I hope to make amends now. This patch introduces granularity by allowing explicit control for both hidden and associated files. It also reverses the default so that by default, hidden files are treated as regular files on the iso9660 file system. This allow Wine to process Windows CDs, including those that are hybrid Mac/Windows CDs properly and completely, without our having to go muck up peoples fstabs as we do now. (I have tested this with such a hybrid + hidden CD and have verified that this patch works as claimed).

2005-06-21[PATCH] rock.c: handle corrupted directoriesAndrew Morton
The bug in rock.c is that it's totally trusting of the contents of the directories. If the directory says there's a continuation 10000 bytes into this 4k block then we cheerily poke around in memory we don't own and oops. So change rock_continue() to apply various sanity checks, at least ensuring that the offset+length remain within the bounds for the header part of a struct rock_ridge directory entry. Note that the kernel can still overindex the buffer due to the variable size of the rock-ridge directory entries. We cannot check that in rock_continue() unless we go parse the directory entry's signature and work out its size.

2005-06-21[PATCH] autofs4: bad lookup fixIan Kent
For browsable autofs maps, a mount request that arrives at the same time an expire is happening can fail to perform the needed mount. This happens becuase the directory exists and so the revalidate succeeds when we need it to fail so that lookup is called on the same dentry to do the mount. Instead lookup is called on the next path component which should be whithin the mount, but the parent isn't mounted. The solution is to allow the revalidate to continue and perform the mount as no directory creation (at mount time) is needed for browsable mount entries.

In this cause autofs4_wait will try to create a new wait but not notify the daemon leading to a hang. As the wait type is meant to delay mount requests from revalidate or lookup during an expire and the expire is done all we need to do is check if the dentry is a mountpoint. If it's not then we're done. Signed-off-by: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-06-21[PATCH] s390: memory detection > 32GBHeiko Carstens
The kernel takes a very long time to boot if the memory size is bigger then 32767 MB. The memory size is contained in a structure created by an sclp call. The kernel accesses the field with a LH instrution which performs a sign extension of a 16 bit word. In the case of a memory size with bit 2^15 set this results in a very large value and the memory detection just loops for a long time. In addition if more then 64 GB are used on a 64 bit system the memory size is read from an incorrect storage location. Use zero-extention to read the 16 bit memory size and the correct offset to read the 4 byte memory size on 64 bit.
