2006-05-16[PATCH] x86_64: Fix memory hotadd heuristicsAndi Kleen
This fixes some boot failures on Dell and Unisys systems with memory hotadd added. - Set hotadd_percent to 0 by default. This means anybody using hotadd memory needs to specify the value on the command line. That's because there are lots of Intel boxes which have a bogus hotplug area in their SRAT and they would waste a lot of memory before. - Fix calculation of how much memory to use when the hotplug area exceeds hotadd_percent - Fix fallback when the - Fix fallback if memory hotadd is not compiled in.

2006-05-16[PATCH] i386/x86_64: Force pci=noacpi on HP XW9300Andi Kleen
This is needed to see all devices. The system has multiple PCI segments and we don't handle that properly yet in PCI and ACPI. Short term before this is fixed blacklist it to pci=noacpi.

2006-05-16[PATCH] x86_64: Don't warn for overflow in nommu case when dma_mask is < 32bitAndi Kleen
This triggers for b44's 1GB DMA workaround which tries to map first and then bounces. The 32bit heuristic is reasonable because the IOMMU doesn't attempt to handle < 32bit masks anyways. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-05-16[PATCH] Fix pSeries identification in prom_init.cBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The OF trampoline code prom_init.c still needs to identify IBM pSeries (PAPR) machines in order to run some platform specific code on them like instanciating the TCE tables. The code doing that detection was changed recently in 2.6.17 early stages but was done slightly incorrectly. It should be testing for an exact match of "chrp" and it currently tests for anything that begins with "chrp". That means it will incorrectly match with platforms using Maple-like device-trees and have open firmware. This fixes it by using strcmp instead of strncmp to match what the actual platform detection code does.

2006-05-15sky2: prevent dual port receiver problemsStephen Hemminger
When both ports are receiving simultaneously, the receive logic gets confused and may pass up a packet before it is full. This causes hangs, and IP will see lots of garbage packets. There is even the potential for data corruption if a later arriving packet DMA's into freed memory. It looks like a hardware bug because status arrives for a packet but no data is there. Until this bug is worked out, block the user from bringing up both ports at once. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>

2006-05-15The ixp2000 driver for the enp2611 was developed on a board withLennert Buytenhek
three gigabit ports, but some enp2611 models only have two ports (and only one onboard PM3386.) The current driver assumes there are always three ports and so it doesn't work on the two-port version of the board at all.

When we fail to mount from a valid root device list out the filesystems we have tried to mount it with. This gives the user vital diagnostics as to what is missing from their kernel. For example in the fragment below the kernel does not have CRAMFS compiled into the kernel and yet appears to recognise it at the RAMDISK detect stage. Later the mount fails as we don't have the filesystem. RAMDISK: cramfs filesystem found at block 0 RAMDISK: Loading 1604KiB [1 disk] into ram disk... done.

2006-05-15[PATCH] fix can_share_swap_page() when !CONFIG_SWAPHua Zhong
can_share_swap_page() is used to check if the page has the last reference. This avoids allocating a new page for COW if it's the last page. However, if CONFIG_SWAP is not set, can_share_swap_page() is defined as 0, thus always causes a copy for the last COW page. The below simple patch fixes it.

2006-05-15[PATCH] smbfs: Fix slab corruption in samba error pathJan Niehusmann
Yesterday, I got the following error with 2.6.16.13 during a file copy from a smb filesystem over a wireless link. I guess there was some error on the wireless link, which in turn caused an error condition for the smb filesystem. In the log, smb_file_read reports error=4294966784 (0xfffffe00), which also shows up in the slab dumps, and also is -ERESTARTSYS. Error code 27499 corresponds to 0x6b6b, so the rq_errno field seems to be the only one being set after freeing the slab. In smb_add_request (which is the only place in smbfs where I found ERESTARTSYS), I found the following: if (!timeleft || signal_pending(current)) { /* * On timeout or on interrupt we want to try and remove the * request from the recvq/xmitq. */ smb_lock_server(server); if (!(req->rq_flags & SMB_REQ_RECEIVED)) { list_del_init(&req->rq_queue); smb_rput(req); } smb_unlock_server(server); } [...] if (signal_pending(current)) req->rq_errno = -ERESTARTSYS; I guess that some codepath like smbiod_flush() caused the request to be removed from the queue, and smb_rput(req) be called, without SMB_REQ_RECEIVED being set. This violates an asumption made by the quoted code. Then, the above code calls smb_rput(req) again, the req gets freed, and req->rq_errno = -ERESTARTSYS writes into the already freed slab. As list_del_init doesn't cause an error if called multiple times, that does cause the observed behaviour (freed slab with rq_errno=-ERESTARTSYS). If this observation is correct, the following patch should fix it. I wonder why the smb code uses list_del_init everywhere - using list_del instead would catch such situations by poisoning the next and prev pointers.

2006-05-15[PATCH] symbol_put_addr() locks kernelTrent Piepho
Even since a previous patch: Fix race between CONFIG_DEBUG_SLABALLOC and modules Sun, 27 Jun 2004 17:55:19 +0000 (17:55 +0000) http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/old-2.6-bkcvs.git;a=commit;h=92b3db26d31cf21b70e3c1eadc56c179506d8fbe The function symbol_put_addr() will deadlock the kernel. symbol_put_addr() would acquire modlist_lock, then while holding the lock call two functions kernel_text_address() and module_text_address() which also try to acquire the same lock. This deadlocks the kernel of course. This patch changes symbol_put_addr() to not acquire the modlist_lock, it doesn't need it since it never looks at the module list directly. Also, it now uses core_kernel_text() instead of kernel_text_address(). The latter has an additional check for addr inside a module, but we don't need to do that since we call module_text_address() (the same function kernel_text_address uses) ourselves.

2006-05-15[PATCH] initramfs: fix CPIO hardlink checkMark Huang
Copy the filenames of hardlinks when inserting them into the hash, since the "name" pointer may point to scratch space (name_buf). Not doing so results in corruption if the scratch space is later overwritten: the wrong file may be hardlinked, or, if the scratch space contains garbage, the link will fail and a 0-byte file will be created instead.

2006-05-15[PATCH] s390: lcs incorrect testGreg Smith
While debugging why our LCS emulator is having some problems I noticed the following weirdness in drivers/s390/net/lcs.c routine lcs_irq. The `if' statement is always true since SCHN_STAT_PCI is defined as 0x80.

As pointed out in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6490, this function can experience overflows on 32-bit machines, causing our response to changed values of min_free_kbytes to go whacky. Fixing it efficiently is all too hard, so fix it with 64-bit math instead.

With "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@us.ibm.com> Introduce rcu_needs_cpu() interface. This can be used to tell if there will be a new rcu batch on a cpu soon by looking at the curlist pointer. This can be used to avoid to enter a tickless idle state where the cpu would miss that a new batch is ready when rcu_start_batch would be called on a different cpu.

2006-05-15[PATCH] VIA quirk fixup, additional PCI IDsChris Wedgwood
An earlier commit (75cf7456dd87335f574dcd53c4ae616a2ad71a11) changed an overly-zealous PCI quirk to only poke those VIA devices that need it. However, some PCI devices were not included in what I hope is now the full list. Consequently we're failing to run the quirk on all machines which need it, causing IRQ routing failures. This should I hope correct this. Thanks to Masoud Sharbiani <masouds@masoud.ir> for pointing this out and testing the fix.
