Yeah, in practice they both mean "root", but Alan correctly points out
that anybody who gets to do raw IO space accesses should really be using
CAP_SYS_RAWIO rather than CAP_NET_ADMIN.

root casue: the rhel 5.1 kernel still uses INTx emulation. and

| genirq: do not leave interupts enabled on free_irq
|
| The default_disable() function was changed in commit:
|
| 76d2160147f43f982dfe881404cfde9fd0a9da21
| genirq: do not mask interrupts by default
|
For MSI, default_shutdown will call mask_bit for msi device. All mask bits
will left disabled after free_irq. Then in the kexec case, the next kernel
can only use msi_enable bit, so all device's MSI can not be used.
So lets to restore the mask bit to its pci reset defined value (enabled) when
we disable the kernels use of msi to be a little friendlier to kexec'd kernels.
Extend msi_set_mask_bit to msi_set_mask_bits to take mask, so we can fully
restore that to 0x00 instead of 0xfe.

There is no "PNPACPI" driver interface as such. PNPACPI is an internal
backend of PNP, and drivers just use the generic PNP interface.
The drivers should depend on CONFIG_PNP, not CONFIG_PNPACPI.
tpm_nsc.c doesn't use PNP at all, so we can just remove the dependency
completely. It probably *should* use PNP to discover the device, but until it
does, there's no point in depending on PNP.

I implemented opstate_init() as a inline function in linux/edac.h.
added calling opstate_init() to:
i82443bxgx_edac.c
i82860_edac.c
i82875p_edac.c
i82975x_edac.c
I wrote a fixed patch of
edac-fix-module-initialization-on-several-modules.patch,
and tested building 2.6.25-rc7 with applying this. It was succeed.
I think the patch is now correct.

Add a module parameter "sysbus_parity" to allow forcing system bus parity
error checking on or off. Also add support to automatically disable system
bus parity errors for processors which do not support it.
If the sysbus_parity parameter is specified, sysbus parity detection will be
forced on or off. If it is not specified, the driver will attempt to look at
the CPU identifier string and determine if the CPU supports system bus parity.
A blacklist was used instead of a whitelist so that system bus parity would
be enabled by default and to minimize the chances of breaking things for those
people already using the driver which for some reason have a processor that
does not have a valid CPU identifier string.

Switch add_entropy_words to a byte-oriented interface, eliminating numerous
casts and byte/word size rounding issues. This also reduces the overall
bit/byte/word confusion in this code.
We now mix a byte at a time into the word-based pool. This takes four times
as many iterations, but should be negligible compared to hashing overhead.
This also increases our pool churn, which adds some depth against some
theoretical failure modes.
The function name is changed to emphasize pool mixing and deemphasize entropy
(the samples mixed in may not contain any). extract is added to the core
function to make it clear that it extracts from the pool.

The urandom output pool (ie the fast path) fits in one cacheline, so
this is pretty unnecessary. Further, the output path has already
fetched the entire pool to hash it before calling in here.
(This was the only user of prefetch_range in the kernel, and it passed
in words rather than bytes!)

At each extraction, we change (poolbits / 16) + 32 bits in the pool,
or 96 bits in the case of the secondary pools. Thus, a brute-force
backtracking attack on the pool state is less difficult than breaking
the hash. In certain cases, this difficulty may be is reduced to 2^64
iterations.
Instead, hash the entire pool in one go, then feedback the whole hash
(160 bits) in one go. This will make backtracking at least as hard as
inverting the hash.

Permit the use of partitions with network block devices (NBD).
A new parameter is introduced to define how many partition we want to be able
to manage per network block device. This parameter is "max_part".
For instance, to manage 63 partitions / loop device, we will do:
[on the server side]
# nbd-server 1234 /dev/sdb
[on the client side]
# modprobe nbd max_part=63
# ls -l /dev/nbd*

# nbd-client localhost 1234 /dev/nbd0
Negotiation: ..size = 80418240KB
bs=1024, sz=80418240
-------NOTE, RFC: partition table is not automatically read.
The driver sets bdev->bd_invalidated to 1 to force the read of the partition
table of the device, but this is done only on an open of the device.
So we have to do a "touch /dev/nbdX" or something like that.
It can't be done from the nbd-client or nbd driver because at this
level we can't ask to read the partition table and to serve the request
at the same time (-> deadlock)
If someone has a better idea, I'm open to any suggestion.

-------NOTE
On "nbd-client -d", we can do an iocl(BLKRRPART) to update partition table:
as the size of the device is 0, we don't have to serve the partition manager
request (-> no deadlock).

This patch allows Network Block Device to be mounted locally (nbd-client to
nbd-server over 127.0.0.1).
It creates a kthread to avoid the deadlock described in NBD tools
documentation. So, if nbd-client hangs waiting for pages, the kblockd thread
can continue its work and free pages.
I have tested the patch to verify that it avoids the hang that always occurs
when writing to a localhost nbd connection. I have also tested to verify that
no performance degradation results from the additional thread and queue.
Patch originally from Laurent Vivier.

Add a kernel parameter option to 'edd' to enable/disable BIOS Enhanced Disk
Drive Services. CONFIG_EDD_OFF disables EDD while still compiling EDD into
the kernel. Default behavior can be forced using 'edd=on' or 'edd=off' as
a kernel parameter.
