2008-02-06x86: remove suprious ifdefs from pageattr.cArjan van de Ven
The .rodata section really should just be read only; the config option is there to make breaking up the 2Mb page an option (so people whos machines give more performance for the 2Mb case can opt to do so).

2008-02-06x86: fix iret exception recovery on 64-bitRoland McGrath
This change broke recovery of exceptions in iret: commit 72fe4858544292ad64600765cb78bc02298c6b1c Author: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> x86: replace privileged instructions with paravirt macros The ENTRY(native_iret) macro adds alignment padding before the iretq instruction, so "iret_label" no longer points exactly at the instruction. It was sloppy to leave the old "iret_label" label behind when replacing its nearby use. Removing it would have revealed the other use of the label later in the file, and upon noticing that use, anyone exercising the minimum of attention to detail expected of anyone touching this subtle code would realize it needed to change as well.

2008-02-06brk: check the lower bound properlyJiri Kosina
There is a check in sys_brk(), that tries to make sure that we do not underflow the area that is dedicated to brk heap. The check is however wrong, as it assumes that brk area starts immediately after the end of the code (+bss), which is wrong for example in environments with randomized brk start. The proper way is to check whether the address is not below the start_brk address. Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-02-06x86: make spurious fault handler aware of large mappingsThomas Gleixner
In very rare cases, on certain CPUs, we could end up in the spurious fault handler and ignore a large pud/pmd mapping.

2008-02-06ext3: fix lock inversion in direct IOJan Kara
We cannot start transaction in ext3_direct_IO() and just let it last during the whole write because dio_get_page() acquires mmap_sem which ranks above transaction start (e.g. because we have dependency chain mmap_sem->PageLock->journal_start, or because we update atime while holding mmap_sem) and thus deadlocks could happen. We solve the problem by starting a transaction separately for each ext3_get_block() call. We *could* have a problem that we allocate a block and before its data are written out the machine crashes and thus we expose stale data. But that does not happen because for hole-filling generic code falls back to buffered writes and for file extension, we add inode to orphan list and thus in case of crash, journal replay will truncate inode back to the original size.

2008-02-06PNP: disable Supermicro H8DCE motherboard resources that overlap SATA BARsBjorn Helgaas
Some Supermicro BIOSes describe a SATA PCI BAR as a motherboard resource. The PNP system driver claims motherboard resources, and this prevents the sata_nv driver from requesting it later. This patch disables the PNP0C01/PNP0C02 resources so they won't be claimed by the PNP system driver, so they'll available for sata_nv. This fixes the bugs below, where sata_nv detects only two out of four SATA drives. The signature includes dmesg lines similar to these: pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefc000-0xdfefcfff has been reserved pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefd000-0xdfefd3ff has been reserved pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefe000-0xdfefe3ff has been reserved PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefd000 for device 0000:80:07.0 sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:07.0 failed with error -16 PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefe000 for device 0000:80:08.0 sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:08.0 failed with error -16 References: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=280641 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=313491 http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/9/449 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.acpi.devel/27312 This is post-2.6.24 material.

2008-02-06PNP: do not test PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE on suspend/resumeRene Herman
The PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE flag is meant to signify that the PNP core should not change resources for the device -- not that it shouldn't disable/enable the device on suspend/resume. ALSA ISAPnP drivers set PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANAGE (0x0001) through setting PNP_DRIVER_RES_DISABLE (0x0003). The latter including the former may in itself be considered rather unexpected but doesn't change that suspend/resume wouldn't seem to have any business testing the flag. As reported by Ondrej Zary for snd-cs4236, ALSA driven ISAPnP cards don't survive swsusp hibernation with the resume skipping setting the resources due to testing the flag -- the same test in the suspend path isn't enough to keep hibernation from disabling the card it seems. These tests were added (in 2005) by Piere Ossman in commit 68094e3251a664ee1389fcf179497237cbf78331, "alsa: Improved PnP suspend support" who doesn't remember why. This deletes them.

2008-02-06pnp: declare PNP option parsing functions as __initThomas Renninger
There are three kind of parse functions provided by PNP acpi/bios: - get current resources - set resources - get possible resources The first two may be needed later at runtime. The possible resource settings should never change dynamically. And even if this would make any sense (I doubt it), the current implementation only parses possible resource settings at early init time: -> declare all the option parsing __init [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Acked-By: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-02-06simplify pnp_activate_dev() and pnp_disable_dev() return valuesBjorn Helgaas
Make pnp_activate_dev() and pnp_disable_dev() return only 0 (success) or a negative error value, as pci_enable_device() and pci_disable_device() do. Previously they returned: 0: device was already active (or disabled) 1: we just activated (or disabled) device <0: -EBUSY or error from pnp_start_dev() (or pnp_stop_dev()) Now we return only 0 (device is active or disabled) or <0 (error). All in-tree callers either ignore the return values or check only for errors (negative values).

2008-02-06md: fix an occasional deadlock in raid5NeilBrown
raid5's 'make_request' function calls generic_make_request on underlying devices and if we run out of stripe heads, it could end up waiting for one of those requests to complete. This is bad as recursive calls to generic_make_request go on a queue and are not even attempted until make_request completes. So: don't make any generic_make_request calls in raid5 make_request until all waiting has been done. We do this by simply setting STRIPE_HANDLE instead of calling handle_stripe(). If we need more stripe_heads, raid5d will get called to process the pending stripe_heads which will call generic_make_request from a This change by itself causes a performance hit. So add a change so that raid5_activate_delayed is only called at unplug time, never in raid5. This seems to bring back the performance numbers. Calling it in raid5d was sometimes too soon... Neil said: How about we queue it for 2.6.25-rc1 and then about when -rc2 comes out, we queue it for 2.6.24.y?
