2006-10-03[PATCH] restore parport_pc probing on powermacOlaf Hering
The last change for partport_pc did fix the common case for all PowerMacs, but it broke the case for PCI multiport IO cards. In fact, the config option CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO=y lead to a hard crash when cups probed the parport driver. It enables the winbond and smsc probing. Remove the PARPORT_BASE check again, parport_pc_find_nonpci_ports() will take care of it. All powerpc configs should have CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO=n, the code did not find anything on the chrp boards we tested it on.

2006-10-02RDMA/cma: Fix device removal raceKrishna Kumar
The race is as follows: A process : cma_process_remove() calls cma_remove_id_dev(), which sets id state to CMA_DEVICE_REMOVAL and calls wait_event(dev_remove). B process : cma_req_handler() had incremented dev_remove, and calls cma_acquire_ib_dev() and on failure calls cma_release_remove(), which does a wake_up of cma_process_remove(). Then cma_req_handler() calls rdma_destroy_id(); A Process : cma_remove_id_dev() gets woken and checks the state of id, and since it is still (wrongly) CMA_DEVICE_REMOVAL, it calls notify_user(id) and if that fails, the caller - cma_process_remove() calls rdma_destroy_id(id). Two processes can call rdma_destroy_id(), resulting in one de-referencing kfreed id_priv. Fix is for process B to set CMA_DESTROYING in cma_req_handler() so that process A will return instead of doing a rdma_destroy_id().

2006-10-02[PATCH] replace cad_pid by a struct pidCedric Le Goater
There are a few places in the kernel where the init task is signaled. The ctrl+alt+del sequence is one them. It kills a task, usually init, using a cached pid (cad_pid). This patch replaces the pid_t by a struct pid to avoid pid wrap around problem. The struct pid is initialized at boot time in init() and can be modified through systctl with /proc/sys/kernel/cad_pid [ I haven't found any distro using it ? ] It also introduces a small helper routine kill_cad_pid() which is used where it seemed ok to use cad_pid instead of pid 1.

2006-10-02[PATCH] Linux Kernel Dump Test ModuleAnkita Garg
A simple module to test Linux Kernel Dump mechanism. This module uses jprobes to install/activate pre-defined crash points. At different crash points, various types of crashing scenarios are created like a BUG(), panic(), exception, recursive loop and stack overflow. The user can activate a crash point with specific type by providing parameters at the time of module insertion. Please see the file header for usage information. The module is based on the Linux Kernel Dump Test Tool by Fernando <http://lkdtt.sourceforge.net>. This module could be merged with mainline. Jprobes is used here so that the context in which crash point is hit, could be maintained. This implements all the crash points as done by LKDTT except the one in the middle of tasklet_action().

2006-10-02[PATCH] usb: fixup usb so it uses struct pidEric W. Biederman

2006-10-02[PATCH] const struct tty_operationsJeff Dike
As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of structures in order to not have to document their locking. One of these structures was a struct tty_operations. In order to const it in UML without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to be fixed. This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const. In all cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations. As an extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra warnings. 53 drivers are affected. I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the last six months. serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

2006-10-02[PATCH] vt: Make vt_pid a struct pid (making it pid wrap around safe).Eric W. Biederman
I took a good hard look at the locking and it appears the locking on vt_pid is the console semaphore. Every modified path is called under the console semaphore except reset_vc when it is called from fn_SAK or do_SAK both of which appear to be in interrupt context. In addition I need to be careful because in the presence of an oops the console_sem may be arbitrarily dropped. Which leads me to conclude the current locking is inadequate for my needs. Given the weird cases we could hit because of oops printing instead of introducing an extra spin lock to protect the data and keep the pid to signal and the signal to send in sync, I have opted to use xchg on just the struct pid * pointer instead. Due to console_sem we will stay in sync between vt_pid and vt_mode except for a small window during a SAK, or oops handling. SAK handling should kill any user space process that care, and oops handling we are broken anyway. Besides the worst that can happen is that I try to send the wrong signal. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-02[PATCH] vt: rework the console spawning variablesEric W. Biederman
This is such a rare path it took me a while to figure out how to test this after soring out the locking. This patch does several things. - The variables used are moved into a structure and declared in vt_kern.h - A spinlock is added so we don't have SMP races updating the values. - Instead of raw pid_t value a struct_pid is used to guard against pid wrap around issues, if the daemon to spawn a new console dies.

2006-10-01pccard_store_cis: fix wrong error handlingLinus Torvalds
The test for the error from pcmcia_replace_cis() was incorrect, and would always trigger (because if an error didn't happen, the "ret" value would not be zero, it would be the passed-in count). Reported and debugged by Fabrice Bellet <fabrice@bellet.info> Rather than just fix the single broken test, make the code in question use an understandable code-sequence instead, fixing the whole function to be more readable.
