Fix n_r3964 timeouts (hardcoded for 100Hz) Also the include of <asm/termios.h> in 'n_r3964.h' is unnecessary and prevents using the header file in any application that has to include <termios.h> due to duplicate definition of 'struct termio'. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-12-22[PATCH] fix race with preempt_enable()Nicolas Pitre
Currently a simple void foo(void) { preempt_enable(); } produces the following code on ARM: foo: bic r3, sp, #8128 bic r3, r3, #63 ldr r2, [r3, #4] ldr r1, [r3, #0] sub r2, r2, #1 tst r1, #4 str r2, [r3, #4] blne preempt_schedule mov pc, lr The problem is that the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag is loaded _before_ the preemption count is stored back, hence any interrupt coming within that 3 instruction window causing TIF_NEED_RESCHED to be set won't be seen and scheduling won't happen as it should. Nothing currently prevents gcc from performing that reordering. There is already a barrier() before the decrement of the preemption count, but another one is needed between this and the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag test for proper code ordering.

2005-12-21[PATCH] include/linux/irq.h: #include <linux/smp.h>Adrian Bunk
Jan's crosscompile page [1] shows, that one regression in 2.6.15-rc is that the v850 defconfig does no longer compile. The compile error is: <-- snip --> ... CC arch/v850/kernel/setup.o In file included from /usr/src/ctest/rc/kernel/arch/v850/kernel/setup.c:17: /usr/src/ctest/rc/kernel/include/linux/irq.h:13:43: asm/smp.h: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [arch/v850/kernel/setup.o] Error 1 <-- snip --> The #include <asm/smp.h> in irq.h was intruduced in 2.6.15-rc. Since include/linux/irq.h needs code from asm/smp.h only in the CONFIG_SMP=y case and linux/smp.h #include's asm/smp.h only in the CONFIG_SMP=y case, I'm suggesting this patch to #include <linux/smp.h> in irq.h.

2005-12-20[PATCH] relayfs: remove warning printk() in relay_switch_subbuf()Tom Zanussi
There's currently a diagnostic printk in relay_switch_subbuf() meant as a warning if you accidentally try to log an event larger than the sub-buffer size. The problem is if this happens while logging from somewhere it's not safe to be doing printks, such as in the scheduler, you can end up with a deadlock. This patch removes the warning from relay_switch_subbuf() and instead prints some diagnostic info when the channel is closed.

2005-12-12[PATCH] fbdev: Fix incorrect unaligned access in little-endian machinesAntonino A. Daplas
The drawing function cfbfillrect does not work correctly when access is not unsigned-long aligned. It manifests as extra lines of pixels that are not complete drawn. Reversing the shift operator solves the problem, so I would presume that this bug would manifest only on little endian machines. The function cfbcopyarea may also have this bug.

2005-12-12[PATCH] fbdev: fix switch to KD_TEXT, enhanced versionKnut Petersen
Every framebuffer driver relies on the assumption that the set_par() function of the driver is called before drawing functions and other functions dependent on the hardware state are executed. Whenever you switch from X to a framebuffer console for the very first time, there is a chance that a broken X system has _not_ set the mode to KD_GRAPHICS, thus the vt and framebuffer code executes a screen redraw and several other functions before a set_par() is executed. This is believed to be not a bug of linux but a bug of X/xdm. At least some X releases used by SuSE and Debian show this behaviour. There was a 2nd case, but that has been fixed by Antonino Daplas on 10-dec-2005. This patch allows drivers to set a flag to inform fbcon_switch() that they prefer a set_par() call on every console switch, working around the problems caused by the broken X releases. The flag will be used by the next release of cyblafb and might help other drivers that assume a hardware state different to the one used by X. As the default behaviour does not change, this patch should be acceptable to everybody. Signed-off-by: Knut Petersen <Knut_Petersen@t-online.de> Acked-by: "Antonino A.

2005-12-12[PATCH] inotify: add two inotify_add_watch flagsJohn McCutchan
The below patch lets userspace have more control over the inodes that inotify will watch. It introduces two new flags. IN_ONLYDIR -- only watch the inode if it is a directory. This is needed to avoid the race that can occur when we want to be sure that we are watching a directory. IN_DONT_FOLLOW -- don't follow a symlink. In combination with IN_ONLYDIR we can make sure that we don't watch the target of symlinks. The issues the flags fix came up when writing the gnome-vfs inotify backend.

2005-12-12[PATCH] Add timestamp field to process eventsMatt Helsley
This adds a timestamp field to the events sent via the process event connector. The timestamp allows listeners to accurately account the duration(s) between a process' events and offers strong means with which to determine the order of events with respect to a given task while also avoiding the addition of per-task data. This alters the size and layout of the event structure and hence would break compatibility if process events connector as it stands in 2.6.15-rc2 were released as a mainline kernel.

2005-12-12[PATCH] add rcu_barrier() synchronization pointDipankar Sarma
This introduces a new interface - rcu_barrier() which waits until all the RCUs queued until this call have been completed. Reiser4 needs this, because we do more than just freeing memory object in our RCU callback: we also remove it from the list hanging off super-block. This means, that before freeing reiser4-specific portion of super-block (during umount) we have to wait until all pending RCU callbacks are executed. The only change of reiser4 made to the original patch, is exporting of rcu_barrier(). Cc: Hans Reiser <reiser@namesys.com> Cc: Vladimir V.
