2007-08-10[S390] vmur: add "top of queue" sanity check for reader openMichael Holzheu
If the z/VM reader is already open, it can happen that after opening the Linux reader device, not the topmost file is processed. According the semantics of the Linux z/VM unit record device driver, always the topmost file has to be processed. With this fix an error is returned if that is not the case.

2007-08-10[S390] vmur: reject open on z/VM reader files with status HOLDMichael Holzheu
If a reader file with HOLD status is at the top of the reader queue, currently all read requests will return data of the second file in the queue. But the semantics of vmur is that always the topmost file is read. With this fix -EPERM is returned on open, if the topmost reader file is in HOLD status.

2007-08-10[S390] vmur: allocate single record buffers instead of one big data bufferMichael Holzheu
vmur allocates one contiguous kernel buffer to copy user data when creating ccw programs for punch or printer. If big block sizes are used, under memory pressure it can happen, that we do not get memory in one chunk. Now we allocate memory for each single record to avoid high order allocations.

2007-07-25Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().john stultz
This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside of the actual time-related functions. Instead, use the helper functions that we already have available to us. This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ (because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a third of a second or so.

2007-07-20mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().Paul Mundt
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them either.

2007-07-11sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for ↵Zhang Rui
sysfs binary attributes Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either. What I do: Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the .read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes. In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work. But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods. I'm not sure if I missed any. :( Why I do this: For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the struct attribute in the .show/.store method, while we can't do this for the binary attributes. I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones. So I think this patch is reasonable. :) Who benefits from it: The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs requires such an improvement. All the table binary attributes share the same .read method. Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get the table signature and instance number which are used to distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes. Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods for different ACPI table binary attributes. This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

2007-07-11sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->ownerTejun Heo
sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper, so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to accessing removed modules. This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the backing module from being unloaded. For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the following message. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/510293 (tweaked by Greg to not delete the field just yet, to make it easier to merge things properly.)

2007-07-10[S390] vmlogrdr function annotation.Christian Borntraeger
Use __init and __exit for vmlogrdr. Both functions are only referenced by the module_init exit macros, so this change should be fine. Acked-by: Stefan Weinhuber <wein@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2007-07-10[S390] zcrypt: fix request timeout handlingRalph Wuerthner
Under very high load zcrypt requests may timeout while waiting on the request queue. Modify zcrypt that timeouts are based on crypto adapter responses. A timeout occurs only if a crypto adapter does not respond within a given time frame to sumitted requests.

2007-07-10[S390] Program check in diag 210 under 31 bitMichael Holzheu
If a virtual address is passed to the diag210 function under 31 bit, we get a programming exception, since diag 210 only works with physical addresses. To fix this, the content of the diag210 data structure is copied to a local structure and the physical address of that structure is passed to diagnose 210.
