2006-04-26[PATCH] sky2: reschedule if irq still pendingStephen Hemminger
This is a workaround for the case edge-triggered irq's. Several users seem to have broken configurations sharing edge-triggered irq's. To avoid losing IRQ's, reshedule if more work arrives. The changes to netdevice.h are to extract the part that puts device back in list into separate inline.

2006-04-26[PATCH] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscallJens Axboe
sys_splice() moves data to/from pipes with a file input/output. sys_vmsplice() moves data to a pipe, with the input being a user address range instead. This uses an approach suggested by Linus, where we can hold partial ranges inside the pages[] map. Hopefully this will be useful for network receive support as well.

Providing more accurate coordinates for thumb press requires additional steps in the filtering logic: - Ignore samples found invalid by the debouncing logic, or the ones that have out of bound pressure value. - Add a parameter to repeat debouncing, so that more then two consecutive good readings are required for a valid sample.

While we can currently walk through thread groups, process groups, and sessions with just the rcu_read_lock, this opens the door to walking the entire task list. We already have all of the other RCU guarantees so there is no cost in doing this, this should be enough so that proc can stop taking the tasklist lock during readdir. prev_task was killed because it has no users, and using it will miss new tasks when doing an rcu traversal.

2006-04-14[PATCH] BLOCK: delay all uevents until partition table is scannedKay Sievers
[BLOCK] delay all uevents until partition table is scanned Here we delay the annoucement of all block device events until the disk's partition table is scanned and all partition devices are already created and sysfs is populated. We have a bunch of old bugs for removable storage handling where we probe successfully for a filesystem on the raw disk, but at the same time the kernel recognizes a partition table and creates partition devices. Currently there is no sane way to tell if partitions will show up or not at the time the disk device is announced to userspace. With the delayed events we can simply skip any probe for a filesystem on the raw disk when we find already present partitions.

2006-04-14[PATCH] sysfs: Allow sysfs attribute files to be pollableNeilBrown
It works like this: Open the file Read all the contents. Call poll requesting POLLERR or POLLPRI (so select/exceptfds works) When poll returns, close the file and go to top of loop. or lseek to start of file and go back to the 'read'. Events are signaled by an object manager calling sysfs_notify(kobj, dir, attr); If the dir is non-NULL, it is used to find a subdirectory which contains the attribute (presumably created by sysfs_create_group). This has a cost of one int per attribute, one wait_queuehead per kobject, one int per open file. The name "sysfs_notify" may be confused with the inotify functionality. Maybe it would be nice to support inotify for sysfs attributes as well? This patch also uses sysfs_notify to allow /sys/block/md*/md/sync_action to be pollable Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2006-04-11Input: ads7846 - handle IRQs that were latched during disabled IRQsImre Deak
The pen down IRQ will toggle during each X,Y,Z measurement cycle. Even though the IRQ is disabled it will be latched and delivered when after enable_irq. Thus in the IRQ handler we must avoid starting a new measurement cycle when such an "unwanted" IRQ happens. Add a get_pendown_state platform function, which will probably determine this by reading the current GPIO level of the pen IRQ pin. Move the IRQ reenabling from the SPI RX function to the timer. After the last power down message the pen IRQ pin is still active for a while and get_pendown_state would report incorrectly a pen down state. When suspending we should check the ts->pending flag instead of ts->pendown, since the timer can be pending regardless of ts->pendown. Also if ts->pending is set we can be sure that the timer is running, so no need to rearm it. Similarly if ts->pending is not set we can be sure that the IRQ is enabled (and the timer is not).

Every caller of svc_take_page ignores its return value and assumes it succeeded. So just WARN() instead of returning an ignored error. This would have saved some time debugging a recent nfsd4 problem. If there are still failure cases here, then the result is probably that we overwrite an earlier part of the reply while xdr-encoding.

2006-04-11[PATCH] module support: record in vermagic ability to unload a modulePaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
An UML user reported (against 2.6.13.3/UML) he got kernel Oopses when trying to rmmod (on a kernel with module unloading enabled) a module compiled with module unloading disabled. As crashing is a very correct thing to do in that case, a solution is altering the vermagic string to include this too. Possibly, however, the code should not crash in this case, even if the module didn't support unloading - it should simply abort the module removal. In this case, fixing that bug would be a better solution. I've not investigated though. (akpm: a bit marginal - root screwed up and shot himself in the foot).

2006-04-11[PATCH] make tty_insert_flip_string_flags() a non gpl exportAndrew Morton
We changed the wrong symbol. It's tty_insert_flip_string_flags() which is called from the previously-non-GPL'ed now-inlined tty_insert_flip_char(). Fix that up, and uninline tty_schedule_flip() while we're there.
