2007-08-01genirq: temporary fix for level-triggered IRQ resendThomas Gleixner
Marcin Slusarz reported a ne2k-pci "hung network interface" regression. delayed disable relies on the ability to re-trigger the interrupt in the case that a real interrupt happens after the software disable was set. In this case we actually disable the interrupt on the hardware level _after_ it occurred. On enable_irq, we need to re-trigger the interrupt. On i386 this relies on a hardware resend mechanism (send_IPI_self()). Actually we only need the resend for edge type interrupts. Level type interrupts come back once enable_irq() re-enables the interrupt line. I assume that the interrupt in question is level triggered because it is shared and above the legacy irqs 0-15: 17: 12 IO-APIC-fasteoi eth1, eth0 Looking into the IO_APIC code, the resend via send_IPI_self() happens unconditionally. So the resend is done for level and edge interrupts. This makes the problem more mysterious. The code in question lib8390.c does disable_irq(); fiddle_with_the_network_card_hardware() enable_irq(); The fiddle_with_the_network_card_hardware() might cause interrupts, which are cleared in the same code path again, Marcin found that when he disables the irq line on the hardware level (removing the delayed disable) the card is kept alive. So the difference is that we can get a resend on enable_irq, when an interrupt happens during the time, where we are in the disabled region.

2007-08-01pata_sis: fix MWDMA for <= UDMA66 chipsets and UDMA for UDMA33 chipsetsBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Fix MWDMA timings setup in sis_old_set_dmamode() and sis_66_set_dmamode(). The old timings were overclocked (even worse behavior than sis5513 IDE driver which depends on BIOS to program correct timings), the new timings are taken from the datasheet (they match timings from ATA spec). * Fix UDMA timings setup in sis_old_set_dmamode(). Misplaced pci_write_config_word() call resulted in UDMA timings never being set. * Fix comments for sis_133_early_set_dmamode() and sis_133_set_dmamode(): - only the former function handles early SiS 961 bridges - both functions lack MWDMA timings setup * Fix typos in sis_100_set_piomode() and sis_133_set_piomode() comments. * Bump driver version.

2007-07-31Fix WARN_ON() on bitfield opsLinus Torvalds
Alexey Dobriyan noticed that the new WARN_ON() semantics that were introduced by commit 684f978347deb42d180373ac4c427f82ef963171 (to also return the value to be warned on) didn't compile when given a bitfield, because the typeof doesn't work for bitfields. So instead of the typeof trick, use an "int" variable together with a "!!(x)" expression, as suggested by Al Viro. To make matters more interesting, Paul Mackerras points out that that is sub-optimal on Power, but the old asm-coded comparison seems to be buggy anyway on 32-bit Power if the conditional was 64-bit, so I think there are more problems there. Regardless, the new WARN_ON() semantics may have been a bad idea. But this at least avoids the more serious complications.

2007-07-31spi device setup gets better error checkingDavid Brownell
This updates some error reporting paths in SPI device setup: - Move validation logic for SPI chipselects to spi_new_device(), which is where it should always have been. - In spi_new_device(), emit error messages if the device can't be created. This is LOTS better than a silent failure; though eventually, the calling convention should probably change to use the <linux/err.h> conventions. - Includes one previously-missing check: SPI masters must always have at least one chipselect, even for dedicated busses which always keep it selected! It also adds a FIXME (IDR for dynamic ID allocation) so the issue doesn't live purely in my mailbox.

2007-07-31Fix a use after free bug in kernel->userspace relay file supportJesper Juhl
Coverity spotted what looks like a real possible case of using a variable after it has been freed. The problem is in kernel/relay.c::relay_open_buf() If the code hits "goto free_buf;" it ends up in this code : free_buf: relay_destroy_buf(buf); <--- calls kfree() on 'buf'. free_name: kfree(tmpname); end: return buf; <-- use after free of 'buf'. I read through the callers and they all handle a NULL return from this function as an error (and hitting the 'free_buf' label only happens on failure to chan->cb->create_buf_file(), so that looks like a clear error to me). The patch simply sets 'buf' to NULL after the call to relay_destroy_buf(buf); - as far as I can see that should take care of the problem. The patch also corrects a reference to a documentation file while I was at it. Note from Mathieu: the documentation reference change should have been done in a separate patch, but I guess no one will really care.

It is possible that another process could acquire a new file lease right after break_lease() is called during a truncate, but before lease-granting is disabled by the subsequent get_write_access(). Merely switching the order of the break_lease() and get_write_access() calls prevents this race. Signed-off-by: David M. Richter <richterd@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: "J.

2007-07-31use __val in __get_unalignedMike Frysinger
Use "__val" rather than "val" in the __get_unaligned macro in asm-generic/unaligned.h. This way gcc wont warn if you happen to also name something in the same scope "val".

2007-07-31ipmi: Fix mem leak in try_init_dmi()Jesper Juhl
This is only called at init time and only happens if the BIOS screws something up, so the leak is slight and it is probably not worth sending to 2.6.22.x. The driver would not initialize the interface in the case, and I have no reports of this happening. I have booted and run tests on a system with this patch. Note that the original patch was munged by the mailer, here's a new one. If we ever hit the "default:" case in the switch in try_init_dmi(), then we'll leak the storage allocated with kzalloc() and assigned to 'info'.
