2005-09-05[PATCH] Floppy: Add cmos attribute to floppy driverHannes Reinecke
Currently only a device 'fdX' shows up in sysfs; the other possible device for this drive (like fd0h1440 etc) must be guessed from there. This patch corrects the floppy driver to create a platform device for each floppy found; each platform device also has an attribute 'cmos' which represents the cmos type for this drive. From this attribute the other possible device types can be computed. From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-09-05[PATCH] Driver core: link device and all class devices derived from it.Dmitry Torokhov
Driver core: link device and all class devices derived from it. To ease the task of locating class devices derived from a certain device create symlinks from parent device to its class devices. Change USB host class device name from usbX to usb_hostX to avoid conflict when creating aforementioned links. Tweaked by Greg to have the symlink be "class_name:class_device_name" in order to prevent duplicate links.

Fix for manual binding of drivers to devices. Problem is if you pass in a valid device id, but the driver refuses to bind. Infinite loop as write() tries to resubmit the data it just sent.

2005-09-05[PATCH] s390: spinlock corner caseHeiko Carstens
On s390 the lock value used for spinlocks consists of the lower 32 bits of the PSW that holds the lock. If this address happens to be on a four gigabyte boundary the lock is left unlocked. This allows other cpus to grab the same lock and enter a lock protected code path concurrently. In theory this can happen if the vmalloc area for the code of a module crosses a 4 GB boundary.

2005-09-05[PATCH] s390: pfault interrupt raceMartin Schwidefsky
There is a race in pfault_interrupt. That function gets called two times for each pfault notification. Once with a subcode of 0 to indicate that a real page is not available and once with a subcode of 0x80 to indicate that the page is present again. Since the two external interrupts can be delivered on two different cpus the order in which the two calls are made is unpredictable. It is possible that the subcode 0x80 interrupt is completed before the subcode 0x00 interrupt has done the wake_up() call. To avoid calling wake_up() on an already removed task structure proper task structure reference counting is needed. Increase the reference counter in the subcode 0x00 interrupt before setting pfault_wait to zero and return the reference after the wake_up call.

The new machine check handler still has a few bugs. 1) The system entry time has to be stored in the machine check handler, 2) the machine check return psw may not be stored at the usual place because it might overwrite the return psw of the interrupted context, 3) the return address for the call to s390_handle_mcck in the i/o interrupt handler is not correct, 4) the system call cleanup has to take the different save area of the machine check handler into account, 5) the machine check handler may not call UPDATE_VTIME before CREATE_STACK_FRAME, and 6) the io leave path needs a critical section cleanup to make sure that the TIF_MCCK_PENDING bit is really checked before switching back to user space.

2005-09-05[PATCH] uml: skas0 stubs now check system call return valuesBodo Stroesser
Change syscall-stub's data to include a "expected retval". Stub now checks syscalls retval and aborts execution of syscall list, if retval != expected retval. run_syscall_stub prints the data of the failed syscall, using the data pointer and retval written by the stub to the beginning of the stack. one_syscall_stub is removed, to simplify code, because only some instructions are saved by one_syscall_stub, no host-syscall. Using the stub with additional data (modify_ldt via stub) is prepared also.

This change enables SKAS0/SKAS3 to work with all combinations of /proc/mm and PTRACE_FAULTINFO being available or not. Also it changes the initialization of proc_mm and ptrace_faultinfo slightly, to ease forcing SKAS0 on a patched host. Forcing UML to run without /proc/mm or PTRACE_FAULTINFO by cmdline parameter can be implemented with a setup resetting the related variable.

2005-09-05[PATCH] uml: add host AIO support to block driverJeff Dike
This adds AIO support to the ubd driver. The driver breaks a struct request into IO requests to the host, based on the hardware segments in the request and on any COW blocks covered by the request. The ubd IO thread is gone, since there is now an equivalent thread in the AIO module. There is provision for multiple outstanding requests now. Requests aren't retired until all pieces of it have been completed. The AIO requests have a shared count, which is decremented as IO operations come in until it reaches 0. This can be possibly moved to the request struct - haven't looked at this yet.

2005-09-05[PATCH] uml: merge duplicated page table codeJeff Dike
There is a lot of code which is duplicated between the 2 and 3 level implementation, with the only difference that the 3-level implementation is a bit more generalized (instead of accessing directly pte_t.pte, it uses the appropriate access macros). So this code is joined together. As obvious, a "core code nice cleanup" is not a "stability-friendly patch" so usual care applies.

2005-09-05[PATCH] uml: TLB operation batchingJeff Dike
This adds VM op batching to skas0. Rather than having a context switch to and from the userspace stub for each address space change, we write a number of operations to the stub data page and invoke a different stub which loops over them and executes them all in one go. The operations are stored as [ system call number, arg1, arg2, ... ] tuples. The set is terminated by a system call number of 0. Single operations, i.e. page faults, are handled in the old way, since that is slightly more efficient. For a kernel build, a minority (~1/4) of the operations are part of a set. These sets averaged ~100 in length, so for this quarter, the context switching overhead is greatly reduced.

2005-09-05[PATCH] uml: fixes performance regression in activate_mm and thus exec()Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Normally, activate_mm() is called from exec(), and thus it used to be a no-op because we use a completely new "MM context" on the host (for instance, a new process), and so we didn't need to flush any "TLB entries" (which for us are the set of memory mappings for the host process from the virtual "RAM" file). Kernel threads, instead, are usually handled in a different way. So, when for AIO we call use_mm(), things used to break and so Benjamin implemented activate_mm(). However, that is only needed for AIO, and could slow down exec() inside UML, so be smart: detect being called for AIO (via PF_BORROWED_MM) and do the full flush only in that situation. Comment also the caller so that people won't go breaking UML without noticing. I also rely on the caller's locks for testing current->flags.
