2006-09-16[PATCH] JFFS2: SUMMARY: fix a summary collecting bugZoltan Sogor
In some special case (padding because of sync or umount) it can be possible that summary information is not fit to the end of the erase block. In these cases the collecting of summary is disabled for this erase block. The problem was that this was not respected by jffs2_sum_add_kvec(). This patch fix this bug.

2006-09-16[PATCH] ext3 sequential read regression fixSuparna Bhattacharya
ext3-get-blocks support caused ~20% degrade in Sequential read performance (tiobench). Problem is with marking the buffer boundary so IO can be submitted right away. Here is the patch to fix it. 2.6.18-rc6: ----------- # ./iotest 1048576+0 records in 1048576+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 75.2726 seconds, 57.1 MB/s real 1m15.285s user 0m0.276s sys 0m3.884s 2.6.18-rc6 + fix: ----------------- [root@elm3a241 ~]# ./iotest 1048576+0 records in 1048576+0 records out 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 62.9356 seconds, 68.2 MB/s The boundary block check in ext3_get_blocks_handle needs to be adjusted against the count of blocks mapped in this call, now that it can map more than one block.

2006-09-16[PATCH] bug fix in kernel/kmod.cKenneth Lee
I think there is a bug in kmod.c: In __call_usermodehelper(), when kernel_thread(wait_for_helper, ...) return success, since wait_for_helper() might call complete() at any time, the sub_info should not be used any more. Normally wait_for_helper() take a long time to finish, you may not get problem for most of the case. But if you remove /sbin/modprobe, it may become easier for you to get a oop in khelper.

2006-09-16[PATCH] headers_check: use a different default directoryDavid Woodhouse
`make headers_check' wants to go and write stuff in /lib/modules, which requires root, whic is unfortunate. In fact, there's no _particular_ reason for headers_install to put it there either -- it can go into a subdirectory of the build tree in both cases. It's not intended to go directly into /usr/include, which is why we didn't put it there -- and we certainly don't want people screwing around with symlinking to it. It's for distributors to take away and do stuff with, so leaving it in $(objtree) is fine, even in the headers_install case. I picked $(objtree)/usr/include but I have no _particular_ preference for that; it just seemed reasonable.

2006-09-16[PATCH] Fix 'make headers_check' for AlphaDavid Woodhouse
Alpha currently fails 'make headers_check' in the 2.6.18-rc kernels. This patch fixes it, by moving the existing #ifdef __KERNEL__ in asm/page.h so that it covers everything that userspace shouldn't so, and by adding asm/compiler.h to the list of exported files so that its use within asm/byteorder.h is successful. [ Note that at least with GCC 4, <linux/compiler.h> doesn't do the forced inlining about which there are nasty comments (and a workaround) in <asm/compiler.h>, unless you set CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING. Rather than keep the mess you have in <asm/compiler.h> you could perhaps just make sure CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING=n is also honoured with GCC3, and make sure it cannot be set for Alpha? ] Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> Cc: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-09-16[PATCH] Fix 'make headers_check' on biarch architecturesDavid Woodhouse
We generate an <asm/foo.h> which includes either <asm-$ARCH/foo.h> or <asm-$ALTARCH/foo.h> as appropriate. But we were doing this dependent on whether the file in question existed in the _unexported_ tree, not the exported tree. So if a file was exported to userspace in one asm- directory but not the other, the generated file in asm/ was incorrect. This only changed the failure mode if it _was_ included from a nice #error to a less explicable #include failure -- but it also gave false errors in 'make headers_check' output. Fix it by looking in the right place instead.

2006-09-13[POWERPC] Fix G5 DART (IOMMU) race causing occasional data corruptionBenjamin Herrenschmidt
It seems that the occasional data corruption observed with the tg3 driver wasn't due to missing barriers after all, but rather seems to be due to the DART (= IOMMU) in the U4 northbridge reading stale IOMMU table entries from memory due to a race. This fixes it by making the CPU read the entry back from memory before using it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-09-13[POWERPC] Fix MMIO ops to provide expected barrier behaviourPaul Mackerras
This changes the writeX family of functions to have a sync instruction before the MMIO store rather than after, because the generally expected behaviour is that the device receiving the MMIO store can be guaranteed to see the effects of any preceding writes to normal memory. To preserve ordering between writeX and readX, and to preserve ordering between preceding stores and the readX, the readX family of functions have had an sync added before the load. Although writeX followed by spin_unlock is not officially guaranteed to keep the writeX inside the spin-locked region unless an mmiowb() is used, there are currently drivers that depend on the previous behaviour on powerpc, which was that the mmiowb wasn't actually required. Therefore we have a per-cpu flag that is set by writeX, cleared by __raw_spin_lock and mmiowb, and tested by __raw_spin_unlock. If it is set, __raw_spin_unlock does a sync and clears it. This changes both 32-bit and 64-bit readX/writeX. 32-bit already has a sync in __raw_spin_unlock (since lwsync doesn't exist on 32-bit), and thus doesn't need the per-cpu flag. Tested on G5 (PPC970) and POWER5. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-09-13[POWERPC] kdump: Support kernels having 64k page size.Sachin P. Sant
This is required to generate proper core files using kdump on ppc64. Create a backup region of 64K size irrespective of the PAGE SIZE. At present 32K was used as backup size. In the case of 64K page size, second PT_LOAD segments starts at 32K and the first one is not page aligned. __ioremap() (crash_dump.c) fails if pfn = 0 which is the case for the second PT_LOAD segment. This is not an issue for 4K page size because the the first page (32K backup) is copied to second kernel memory and thus referencing with the second kernel pfn.
