2007-10-20ide: add ide_device_add()Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Add ide_device_add() helper and convert host drivers to use it instead of open-coded variants. * Make ide_pci_setup_ports() and do_ide_setup_pci_device() take 'u8 *idx' argument instead of 'ata_index_t *index'. * Remove no longer needed ata_index_t. * Unexport probe_hwif_init() and make it static. * Unexport ide_proc_register_port(). There should be no functionality changes caused by this patch (sgiioc4.c: ide_proc_register_port() requires hwif->present to be set and it won't be set if probe_hwif_init() fails). Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2007-10-20ide: add ->fixup method to ide_hwif_tBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Add ->fixup method to ide_hwif_t. * Set hwif->fixup in ide_pci_setup_ports() to d->fixup. * Use hwif->fixup in probe_hwif(). * Use probe_hwif_init() instead of probe_hwif_init_with_fixup() in ide_setup_pci_device(). * Add 'fixup' argument to ide_register_hw() and use it to set hwif->fixup, update all ide_register_hw() users accordingly. * Convert ide-cs/delkin_cb host drivers to use ide_register_hw(). * Restore hwif->fixup in ide_hwif_restore(). * Remove ide_register_hw_with_fixup(), probe_hwif_init_with_fixup() and 'fixup' argument from probe_hwif().

2007-10-20siimage: separate PATA and SATA methodsBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Split off sil_sata_udma_filter() from sil_udma_filter() and rename sil_udma_filter() to sil_pata_udma_filter(). * Rename siimage_busproc() to sil_sata_busproc(). * Rename siimage_reset_poll() to sil_sata_reset_poll() and in init_hwif_siimage() set ->reset_poll method only for SATA controllers. * Rename siimage_pre_reset() to sil_sata_pre_reset(), in init_hwif_siimage() set ->pre_reset method only for SATA controllers and remove redundant is_sata() call. * Add CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA #ifdef/#endif to pdev_is_sata() so compiler will know to throw out unused SATA code for CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA=n case (830 bytes saved on x86-32). * Bump driver version. Some minor cleanups while at it: * Convert sil_{pata,sata}_udma_filter() to use ATA_UDMA* defines. * In siimage_mmio_ide_dma_test_irq() move 'base' variable under 'if (SATA_ERROR_REG)' block. * Simplify sil_sata_reset_poll() a bit. * Cache is_sata() result in init_hwif_siimage() Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

2007-10-20alim15x3: use ->host_flags and ->udma_mask fields from ide_pci_device_tBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Make a local copy of ali15x3_chipset in alim15x3_init_one() and set ->host_flags / ->udma_mask according to the controller capabilities. * Cleanup init_hwif_common_ali15x3(). * Bump driver version. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2007-10-20alim15x3: fix CD_ROM DMA and PIO FIFO settings setupBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Setup CD_ROM DMA and PIO FIFO settings in init_chipset_ali15x3() instead of ata66_ali15x3(). The latter is called from init_hwif_common_ali15x3() only if DMA base exists (which insists m5529_revision > 0x20). This changes makes CD_ROM DMA / PIO FIFO bits being set only once and also when "idex=ata66" kernel parameter is used. * While at it move also chip_is_1543c_e setup from ata66_ali15x3() to init_chipset_ali15x3() and check if isa_dev exists before accessing it. * Bump driver version.

Convert amd74xx, sl82c105 and via82cxxx host drivers to use these new host flags. While at it: * Add IDE_HFLAGS_AMD define (amd74xx host driver). * Add IDE_HFLAGS_VIA define (via82cxxx host driver).

While at it: * Add IDE_HFLAGS_UMC define (generic IDE PCI host driver). * Remove no longer needed init_hwif_generic() (generic IDE PCI host driver). * Set d->udma_mask instead of hwif->ultra_mask (via82cxxx host driver).

Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into 20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing. However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make _one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES, and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

2007-10-19Extended crashkernel command lineBernhard Walle
This patch adds a extended crashkernel syntax that makes the value of reserved system RAM dependent on the system RAM itself: crashkernel=<range1>:<size1>[,<range2>:<size2>,...][@offset] range=start-[end] For example: crashkernel=512M-2G:64M,2G-:128M The motivation comes from distributors that configure their crashkernel command line automatically with some configuration tool (YaST, you know ;)). Of course that tool knows the value of System RAM, but if the user removes RAM, then the system becomes unbootable or at least unusable and error handling is very difficult. This series implements this change for i386, x86_64, ia64, ppc64 and sh. That should be all platforms that support kdump in current mainline. I tested all platforms except sh due to the lack of a sh processor. This patch: This is the generic part of the patch. It adds a parse_crashkernel() function in kernel/kexec.c that is called by the architecture specific code that actually reserves the memory. That function takes the whole command line and looks itself for "crashkernel=" in it. If there are multiple occurrences, then the last one is taken. The advantage is that if you have a bootloader like lilo or elilo which allows you to append a command line parameter but not to remove one (like in GRUB), then you can add another crashkernel value for testing at the boot command line and this one overwrites the command line in the configuration then.

2007-10-19IPC: fix error case when idr-cache is empty in ipcget()Pierre Peiffer
With the use of idr to store the ipc, the case where the idr cache is empty, when idr_get_new is called (this may happen even if we call idr_pre_get() before), is not well handled: it lets semget()/shmget()/msgget() return ENOSPC when this cache is empty, what 1. does not reflect the facts and 2. does not conform to the man(s). This patch fixes this by retrying the whole process of allocation in this case.

Virtualization of sysv msg queues is incomplete: msg_hdrs and msg_bytes variables visible from userspace are global. Let's make them per-namespace.

2007-10-19IPC: cleanup some code and wrong comments about semundo list managmentPierre Peiffer
Some comments about sem_undo_list seem wrong. About the comment above unlock_semundo: "... If task2 now exits before task1 releases the lock (by calling unlock_semundo()), then task1 will never call spin_unlock(). ..." This is just wrong, I see no reason for which task1 will not call spin_unlock... The rest of this comment is also wrong... Unless I miss something (of course). Finally, (un)lock_semundo functions are useless, so remove them for simplification. (this avoids an useless if statement) Signed-off-by: Pierre Peiffer <pierre.peiffer@bull.net> Cc: Nadia Derbey <Nadia.Derbey@bull.net> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serue@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-10-19fix idr_find() lockingNadia Derbey
This is a patch that fixes the way idr_find() used to be called in ipc_lock(): in all the paths that don't imply an update of the ipcs idr, it was called without the idr tree being locked. The changes are: . in ipc_ids, the mutex has been changed into a reader/writer semaphore. . ipc_lock() now takes the mutex as a reader during the idr_find(). . a new routine ipc_lock_down() has been defined: it doesn't take the mutex, assuming that it is being held by the caller. This is the routine that is now called in all the update paths.

2007-10-19Storing ipcs into IDRsNadia Derbey
This patch converts casts of struct kern_ipc_perm to . struct msg_queue . struct sem_array . struct shmid_kernel into the equivalent container_of() macro. It improves code maintenance because the code need not change if kern_ipc_perm is no longer at the beginning of the containing struct.
