2008-04-17[S390] hw_random: allow rng_dev_read() to return hardware errors.Ralph Wuerthner
The api for hardware random number generators is currently limited to devices that never fail. If the hardware is registered as a source for random numbers it has to work. This prevents the use of i/o based random number devices where the i/o might fail. Add a check for errors after the read from a hardware random number device. This patch is required to support large random numbers retrieved from the CEX2C cards on System z.

2008-04-17[S390] Vertical cpu management.Heiko Carstens
If vertical cpu polarization is active then the hypervisor will dispatch certain cpus for a longer time than other cpus for maximum performance. For example if a guest would have three virtual cpus, each of them with a share of 33 percent, then in case of vertical cpu polarization all of the processing time would be combined to a single cpu which would run all the time, while the other two cpus would get nearly no cpu time. There are three different types of vertical cpus: high, medium and low. Low cpus hardly get any real cpu time, while high cpus get a full real cpu. Medium cpus get something in between. In order to switch between the two possible modes (default is horizontal) a 0 for horizontal polarization or a 1 for vertical polarization must be written to the dispatching sysfs attribute: /sys/devices/system/cpu/dispatching The polarization of each single cpu can be figured out by the polarization sysfs attribute of each cpu: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/polarization horizontal, vertical:high, vertical:medium, vertical:low or unknown. When switching polarization the polarization attribute may contain the value unknown until the configuration change is done and the kernel has figured out the new polarization of each cpu. Note that running a system with different types of vertical cpus may result in significant performance regressions. If possible only one type of vertical cpus should be used. All other cpus should be offlined. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

2008-04-17[S390] KVM preparation: split sysinfo definitions for kvm useChristian Borntraeger
drivers/s390/sysinfo.c uses the store system information intruction to query the system about information of the machine, the LPAR and additional hypervisors. KVM has to implement the host part for this instruction. To avoid code duplication, this patch splits the common definitions from sysinfo.c into a separate header file include/asm-s390/sysinfo.h for KVM use.

2008-04-17[S390] vmur: Use wait queue instead of mutex to serialize openFrank Munzert
If user space opens a unit record device node then vmur is leaving the kernel with lock open_mutex still held to prevent other processes from opening the device simultaneously. This causes lockdep to complain about a lock held when returning to user space. Now the mutex is replaced by a wait queue to serialize device open.

2008-04-17[S390] tape: duplicate sysfs filename when setting tape device onlineMichael Holzheu
When a tape device is set online, offline and online again, the following error message is printed on the console: "sysfs: duplicate filename 'non-rewinding' can not be created". The reason is that when setting a device online, the tape driver creates a sysfs symlink from the tape device to the tape class device. Unfortunately the symlink is not removed correctly, when the device is set offline. Instead of passing the tape device object to sysfs_remove_link, the class device object is used. This patch fixes this problem and uses the correct tape device object now.

2008-04-17[S390] qdio: Unrecognized inbound traffic if many FCP devices are onlineUrsula Braun
Problem: Usually every FCP device has its own indicator field the adapter uses to signal outstanding work. Once a certain limit of devices is reached, a common indicator field is used. In certain scenarios qdio resets this common indicator field, but handles only part of the FCP-devices sharing the common indicator field. Thus inbound traffic on the non-processed shared FCP-devices is not recognized immediately. Solution: Make sure common indicator field is reset only, if all FCP-devices sharing the indicator are processed.

2008-04-15vfs: fix possible deadlock in ext2, ext3, ext4 when using xattrsJan Kara
mb_cache_entry_alloc() was allocating cache entries with GFP_KERNEL. But filesystems are calling this function while holding xattr_sem so possible recursion into the fs violates locking ordering of xattr_sem and transaction start / i_mutex for ext2-4. Change mb_cache_entry_alloc() so that filesystems can specify desired gfp mask and use GFP_NOFS from all of them.

2008-04-15Documentation: correct overcommit caveat in hugetlbpage.txtNishanth Aravamudan
As shown by Gurudas Pai recently, we can put hugepages into the surplus state (by echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages), even when /proc/sys/vm/nr_overcommit_hugepages is 0. This is actually correct, to allow the original goal (shrink the static pool to 0) to succeed (we are converting hugepages to surplus because they are in use). However, the documentation does not accurately reflect this case. Update it.

NOTE that Kconfig for some of these drivers doesn't allow modular builds, and thus doesn't match the driver source's unload support. Presumably their unload code is buggy and/or weakly tested...
