2008-04-18ide: add generic packet command representation ide_atapi_pcBorislav Petkov
This new struct unifies ide{-floppy,-tape,-scsi}'s view of a packet command. For now, it represents the common denominator between the three drivers while adding driver- specific members at the end of the struct which will be merged/simplified into the generic ATAPI handling code in later steps, or removed completely.

2008-04-18ide: remove broken/dangerous HDIO_[UNREGISTER,SCAN]_HWIF ioctls (take 3)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
hdparm explicitely marks HDIO_[UNREGISTER,SCAN]_HWIF ioctls as DANGEROUS and given the number of bugs we can assume that there are no real users: * DMA has no chance of working because DMA resources are released by ide_unregister() and they are never allocated again. * Since ide_init_hwif_ports() is used for ->io_ports[] setup the ioctls don't work for almost all hosts with "non-standard" (== non ISA-like) layout of IDE taskfile registers (there is a lot of such host drivers). * ide_port_init_devices() is not called when probing IDE devices so: - drive->autotune is never set and IDE host/devices are not programmed for the correct PIO/DMA transfer modes (=> possible data corruption) - host specific I/O 32-bit and IRQ unmasking settings are not applied (=> possible data corruption) - host specific ->port_init_devs method is not called (=> no luck with ht6560b, qd65xx and opti621 host drivers) * ->rw_disk method is not preserved (=> no HPT3xxN chipsets support). * ->serialized flag is not preserved (=> possible data corruption when using icside, aec62xx (ATP850UF chipset), cmd640, cs5530, hpt366 (HPT3xxN chipsets), rz1000, sc1200, dtc2278 and ht6560b host drivers). * ->ack_intr method is not preserved (=> needed by ide-cris, buddha, gayle and macide host drivers). * ->sata_scr[] and sata_misc[] is cleared by ide_unregister() and it isn't initialized again (SiI3112 support needs them). * To issue an ioctl() there need to be at least one IDE device present in the system. * ->cable_detect method is not preserved + it is not called when probing IDE devices so cable detection is broken (however since DMA support is also broken it doesn't really matter ;-). * Some objects which may have already been freed in ide_unregister() are restored by ide_hwif_restore() (i.e. ->hwgroup). * ide_register_hw() may unregister unrelated IDE ports if free ide_hwifs[] slot cannot be found. * When IDE host drivers are modular unregistered port may be re-used by different host driver that owned it first causing subtle bugs. Since we now have a proper warm-plug support remove these ioctls, then remove no longer needed: - ide_register_hw() and ide_hwif_restore() functions - 'init_default' and 'restore' arguments of ide_unregister() - zeroeing of hwif->{dma,extra}_* fields in ide_unregister() As an added bonus IDE core code size shrinks by ~3kB (x86-32). v2: * fix ide_unregister() arguments in cleanup_module() (Andrew Morton). v3: * fix ide_unregister() arguments in palm_bk3710.c.

2008-04-18ide: remove dead/obsolete ->busproc methodBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
->busproc method is used by HDIO_SET_BUSSTATE ioctl but it has no chance of working as intended (in 2.4.x days) because to issue an ioctl there is a device node needed and: - for BUSSTATE_TRISTATE+OFF it is too late (devices are already gone) - for BUSSTATE_TRISTATE+ON it is too early (devices are not registered yet) Just remove ->busproc method for now (it was only implemented by hpt366, siimage and tc86c001 host drivers).

2008-04-15ssb: Fix usage of struct device used for DMAingMichael Buesch
This fixes DMA on architectures where DMA is nontrivial, like PPC64. We must use the host-device's (PCI) struct device for any DMA operation instead of the SSB device. For this we add a new struct device pointer to the SSB device structure that will always point to the right device for DMAing. Without this patch b43 and b44 drivers won't work on complex-DMA architectures, that for example need dev->archdata for DMA operations.

2008-04-13[IPV6]: IPv6 extension header structures need to be packed.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki
struct ipv6_opt_hdr is the common structure for IPv6 extension headers, and it is common to increment the pointer to get the real content. On the other hand, since the structure consists only of 1-byte next-header field and 1-byte length field, size of that structure depends on architecture; 2 or 4. Add "packed" attribute to get 2.

2008-04-11pnp: increase number of devices supported per protocolBjorn Helgaas
Increase the PNP "number of devices" limit. We currently use an unsigned char, which limits us to 256 devices per protocol. This patch changes that to an unsigned int. Not all backends can take advantage of this: we limit ISAPNP to 10 devices in isapnp_cfg_begin(), and PNPBIOS is limited to 256 devices because the BIOS interfaces use a one-byte device node number. But there is no limit on the number of PNPACPI devices we may have. Large HP Integrity machines have more than 256, which causes the current "unsigned char number" to wrap around. This causes errors like this: pnp: PnP ACPI init kobject_add failed for 00:00 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory. Call Trace: [<a000000100010720>] show_stack+0x40/0xa0 [<a0000001000107b0>] dump_stack+0x30/0x60 [<a0000001001dbdf0>] kobject_add+0x290/0x2c0 [<a0000001002bfd40>] device_add+0x160/0x860 [<a0000001002c0470>] device_register+0x30/0x60 [<a00000010026ba70>] __pnp_add_device+0x130/0x180 [<a00000010026bb70>] pnp_add_device+0xb0/0xe0 [<a0000001007f2730>] pnpacpi_add_device+0x510/0x5a0 [<a0000001007f2810>] pnpacpi_add_device_handler+0x50/0x80 This patch increases the limit to fix this PNPACPI problem.

2008-04-10Add commentary about the new "asmlinkage_protect()" macroLinus Torvalds
It's really a pretty ugly thing to need, and some day it will hopefully be obviated by teaching gcc about the magic calling conventions for the low-level system call code, but in the meantime we can at least add big honking comments about why we need these insane and strange macros. I took my comments from my version of the macro, but I ended up deciding to just pick Roland's version of the actual code instead (with his prettier syntax that uses vararg macros). Thus the previous two commits that actually implement it. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-04-10asmlinkage_protect replaces prevent_tail_callRoland McGrath
The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs. The tail/sibling-call optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent. Other optimizations can do it too. Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all the manifestations of this issue that crop up. More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument variables live at the end of the function. This makes their original stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler tends not clobber them for something else. It's still no guarantee, but it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

2008-04-07virtio: remove overzealous BUG_ON.Rusty Russell
The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host we don't need callbacks now. As it is not reliable, the debug check is overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time. Document this. Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance protection can be easily tripped even on UP.

2008-04-04cgroups: add cgroup support for enabling controllers at boot timePaul Menage
The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are: - foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in a single hierarchy - foo isn't visible as an individually mountable subsystem As a result there will only ever be one call to foo->create(), at init time; all processes will stay in this group, and the group will never be mounted on a visible hierarchy. Any additional effects (e.g. not allocating metadata) are up to the foo subsystem. This doesn't handle early_init subsystems (their "disabled" bit isn't set be, but it could easily be extended to do so if any of the early_init systems wanted it - I think it would just involve some nastier parameter processing since it would occur before the command-line argument parser had been run. Hugh said: Ballpark figures, I'm trying to get this question out rather than processing the exact numbers: CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR adds 15% overhead to the affected paths, booting with cgroup_disable=memory cuts that back to 1% overhead (due to slightly bigger struct page). I'm no expert on distros, they may have no interest whatever in CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR=y; and the rest of us can easily build with or without it, or apply the cgroup_disable=memory patches.

Currently include/linux/kvm.h is not considered by make headers_install, because Kbuild cannot handle " unifdef-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.h.

Rather than add a zillion <asm/kvm.h>s, export kvm. only if the arch actually supports it. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com> which makes this an 2.6.25 regression. One way of solving the issue is to enhance Kbuild, but Avi and David conviced me, that changing headers_install is not the way to go. This patch changes the definition for linux/kvm.h to unifdef-y. If  unifdef-y is used for linux/kvm.h "make headers_check" will fail on all architectures without asm/kvm.h. Therefore, this patch also provides asm/kvm.h on all architectures.

2008-04-02cfq-iosched: fix rcu freeing of cfq io contextsFabio Checconi
SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is not a direct substitute for normal call_rcu() freeing, since it'll page freeing but NOT object freeing. So change cfq to do the freeing on its own.

2008-04-01Input: make sure input interfaces pin parent input devicesDmitry Torokhov
Recent driver core change causes references to parent devices being dropped early, at device_del() time, as opposed to when all children are freed. This causes oops in evdev with grabbed devices. Take the reference to the parent input device ourselves to ensure that it stays around long enough. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>
