This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong in some places.

2007-08-01[IA64] SN2: Fix up sn2_rtc clockChristoph Lameter
If the sn2_rtc clock is present then it is a must have since sn2_rtc provides a synchronized time source on Altix systems. So elevate the priority to 450. Otherwise the ITC would take precendence. Altix systems currently do not boot because the ITC clocksource is broken. It seems to assume that ITCs are synchronized and as a result nanosleep hangs (may be fixed in a different patch). While we are at it: Remove the sn2_mc definition. The sn2_rtc has a fixed address. No point in reading the address from memory. Removing it avoids touching one cacheline.

2007-05-02MSI: arch must connect the irq and the msi_descMichael Ellerman
set_irq_msi() currently connects an irq_desc to an msi_desc. The archs call it at some point in their setup routine, and then the generic code sets up the reverse mapping from the msi_desc back to the irq. set_irq_msi() should do both connections, making it the one and only call required to connect an irq with it's MSI desc and vice versa. The arch code MUST call set_irq_msi(), and it must do so only once it's sure it's not going to fail the irq allocation. Given that there's no need for the arch to return the irq anymore, the return value from the arch setup routine just becomes 0 for success and anything else for failure.

2007-05-02PCI: Cleanup the includes of <linux/pci.h>Jean Delvare
I noticed that many source files include <linux/pci.h> while they do not appear to need it. Here is an attempt to clean it all up. In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all files including <linux/pci.h> but without any other occurence of "pci" or "PCI". I removed the include statement from all of these, then I compiled an allmodconfig kernel on both i386 and x86_64 and fixed the false positives manually. My tests covered 66% of the affected files, so there could be false positives remaining. Untested files are: arch/alpha/kernel/err_common.c arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev6.c arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev7.c arch/ia64/sn/kernel/huberror.c arch/ia64/sn/kernel/xpnet.c arch/m68knommu/kernel/dma.c arch/mips/lib/iomap.c arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/ras.c arch/ppc/8260_io/enet.c arch/ppc/8260_io/fcc_enet.c arch/ppc/8xx_io/enet.c arch/ppc/syslib/ppc4xx_sgdma.c arch/sh64/mach-cayman/iomap.c arch/xtensa/kernel/xtensa_ksyms.c arch/xtensa/platform-iss/setup.c drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-at91.c drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c drivers/media/video/saa711x.c drivers/misc/hdpuftrs/hdpu_cpustate.c drivers/misc/hdpuftrs/hdpu_nexus.c drivers/net/au1000_eth.c drivers/net/fec_8xx/fec_main.c drivers/net/fec_8xx/fec_mii.c drivers/net/fs_enet/fs_enet-main.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mac-fcc.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mac-fec.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mac-scc.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mii-bitbang.c drivers/net/fs_enet/mii-fec.c drivers/net/ibm_emac/ibm_emac_core.c drivers/net/lasi_82596.c drivers/parisc/hppb.c drivers/sbus/sbus.c drivers/video/g364fb.c drivers/video/platinumfb.c drivers/video/stifb.c drivers/video/valkyriefb.c include/asm-arm/arch-ixp4xx/dma.h sound/oss/au1550_ac97.c I would welcome test reports for these files.

2007-03-01ACPI: Altix: reinitialize acpi tablesJohn Keller
To provide compatibilty with SN kernels that do and do not have ACPI IO support, the SN PROM must build different versions of some ACPI tables based on which kernel is booting. As such, the tables may have to change at kernel boot time. By default, prior to kernel boot, the PROM builds an empty DSDT (header only) and no SSDTs. If an ACPI capable kernel boots, the kernel will notify the PROM, at platform setup time, and the PROM will build full DSDT and SSDT tables. With the latest changes to acpi_table_init(), the table lengths are saved, and when our PROM changes them, the changes are not seen, and the kernel will crash on boot. Because of issues with kexec support, we are not able to create the tables prior to acpi_table_init(). As a result, we are making a second call to acpi_table_init() to process the rebuilt DSDT and SSDTs. Signed-off-by: John Keller <jpk@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: sn: remove sysctl ABI BREAKAGEEric W. Biederman
By not using the enumeration in sysctl.h (or even understanding it) the SN platform placed their arch specific xpc directory on top of CTL_KERN and only because they didn't have 4 entries in their xpc directory got lucky and didn't break glibc. This is totally irresponsible. So this patch entirely removes sys_sysctl support from their sysctl code. Hopefully they don't have ascii name conflicts as well. And now that they have no ABI numbers add them to the end instead of the sysctl list instead of the head so nothing else will be overridden. Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-12[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 2Arjan van de Ven
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2007-02-11[PATCH] sn2: use static ->proc_fopsAlexey Dobriyan
fix-rmmod-read-write-races-in-proc-entries.patch doesn't want dynamically allocated ->proc_fops, because it will set it to NULL at module unload time. Regardless of module status, switch to statically allocated ->proc_fops which leads to simpler code without wrappers. AFAICS, also fix the following bug: "sn_force_interrupt" proc entry set ->write for itself, but was created with 0444 permissions. Change to 0644.
