2005-06-04[PATCH] mpage_end_io_write() I/O error handling fixQu Fuping
When fsync() runs wait_on_page_writeback_range() it only inspects pages which are actually under I/O (PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK). If a page completed I/O prior to wait_on_page_writeback_range() looking at it, it is supposed to have recorded its I/O error state in the address_space. But mpage_mpage_end_io_write() forgot to set the address_space error flag in this case.

2005-06-03[PATCH] m68knommu: fix scheduling and race problems in idle loopGreg Ungerer
Re-work the m68knommu specific idle code according to suggestions from Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au>. A couple of rules that we need to follow: 1. Preempt should now disabled over idle routines. Should only be enabled to call schedule() then disabled again. 3. When cpu_idle finds (need_resched() == 'true'), it should call schedule(). It should not call schedule() otherwise. Also fix interrupt locking around the need_resched() and cpu stop state so that there is no race condition.

2005-06-03[SCSI] fix slab corruption during ipr probeNathan Lynch
With CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y I see slab corruption messages during boot on pSeries machines with IPR adapters with any 2.6.12-rc kernel. The change which seems to have introduced the problem is "SCSI: revamp target scanning routines" and may be found at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bk-commits-head&m=111093946426333&w=2 In order to revert that in a 2.6.12-rc1 tree, I had to revert "target code updates to support scanned targets" first: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bk-commits-head&m=111094132524649&w=2 With both patches reverted, the corruption messages go away. ipr: IBM Power RAID SCSI Device Driver version: 2.0.13 (February 21, 2005) ipr 0001:d0:01.0: Found IOA with IRQ: 167 ipr 0001:d0:01.0: Starting IOA initialization sequence. ipr 0001:d0:01.0: Adapter firmware version: 020A005C ipr 0001:d0:01.0: IOA initialized. scsi0 : IBM 570B Storage Adapter Vendor: IBM Model: VSBPD4E1 U4SCSI Rev: 4770 Type: Enclosure ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Vendor: IBM H0 Model: HUS103036FL3800 Rev: RPQF Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 04 Vendor: IBM H0 Model: HUS103036FL3800 Rev: RPQF Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 04 Vendor: IBM H0 Model: HUS103036FL3800 Rev: RPQF Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 04 Vendor: IBM H0 Model: HUS103036FL3800 Rev: RPQF Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 04 Vendor: IBM Model: VSBPD4E1 U4SCSI Rev: 4770 Type: Enclosure ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Slab corruption: start=c0000001e8de5268, len=512 Redzone: 0x5a2cf071/0x5a2cf071.

Great! FWIW I've briefly tested a modified version of usbatm using the list head in struct urb instead of creating a wrapper struct, and I haven't seen any failures yet.

2005-06-03[PATCH] USB: add Option Card driverMatthias Urlichs
This patch adds a new driver for "Option" cards. This is a GSM data card, controlled by three "serial ports" which are connected via an OHCI adapter, all located on an oversized PC-Card. It's sold by several GSM service providers. Traditionally, this card has been accessed via the standard serial driver and appropriate vendor= and product= options. However, testing has revealed several problems with this approach, including hung data transfers and lost data blocks when receiving. Therefore, I've written a separate driver.

2005-06-02[PATCH] ext3: fix list scanning in __cleanup_transactionJan Kara
Fix a bug in list scanning that can cause us to skip the last buffer on the checkpoint list (and hence fail to do any progress under some rather unfavorable conditions). The problem is we first do jh=next_jh and then test } while (jh!=last_jh); Hence we skip the last buffer on the list (if it was not the only buffer on the list). As we already do jh=next_jh; in the beginning of the loop we are safe to just remove the assignment in the end. It can happen that 'jh' will be freed at the point we test jh != last_jh but that does not matter as we never *dereference* the pointer.

2005-06-01[PATCH] ppc32/ppc64: cleanup /proc/device-treeBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This cleans up the /proc/device-tree representation of the Open Firmware device-tree on ppc and ppc64. It does the following things: - Workaround an issue in some Apple device-trees where a property may exist with the same name as a child node of the parent. We now simply "drop" the property instead of creating duplicate entries in /proc with random result... - Do not try to chop off the "@0" at the end of a node name whose unit address is 0. This is not useful, inconsistent, and the code was buggy and didn't always work anyway. - Do not create symlinks for the short name and unit address parts of a node. These were never really used, bloated the memory footprint of the device-tree with useless struct proc_dir_entry and their matching dentry and inode cache bloat. This results in smaller code, smaller memory footprint, and a more accurate view of the tree presented to userland.

Apple's Open Firmware has a funny bug when creating the /cpus nodes where it leaves a dangling '\0' character in the CPU name which ends up appearing in the full path of the node. This is bogus and confuses /proc/device-tree badly. This patch strips those bogus zero's from the node full path when reading the device-tree from Open Firmware. The "name" property is not modified and still contains the spurrious 0 (it basically contains 0 tailing 0 instead of one) but that shouldn't be a problem.
