2005-11-07[PATCH] mm: rename kmem_cache_s to kmem_cachePekka J Enberg
This patch renames struct kmem_cache_s to kmem_cache so we can start using it instead of kmem_cache_t typedef. Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-11-07[PATCH] ia64: re-implement dma_get_cache_alignment to avoid EXPORT_SYMBOLJohn W. Linville
The current ia64 implementation of dma_get_cache_alignment does not work for modules because it relies on a symbol which is not exported. Direct access to a global is a little ugly anyway, so this patch re-implements dma_get_cache_alignment in a manner similar to what is currently used for x86_64. Signed-off-by: John W.

2005-11-07[PATCH] ppc64: Fix bug in SLB miss handler for hugepagesDavid Gibson
This patch, however, should be applied on top of the 64k-page-size patch to fix some problems with hugepage (some pre-existing, another introduced by this patch). The patch fixes a bug in the SLB miss handler for hugepages on ppc64 introduced by the dynamic hugepage patch (commit id c594adad5653491813959277fb87a2fef54c4e05) due to a misunderstanding of the srd instruction's behaviour (mea culpa). The problem arises when a 64-bit process maps some hugepages in the low 4GB of the address space (unusual). In this case, as well as the 256M segment in question being marked for hugepages, other segments at 32G intervals will be incorrectly marked for hugepages. In the process, this patch tweaks the semantics of the hugepage bitmaps to be more sensible. Previously, an address below 4G was marked for hugepages if the appropriate segment bit in the "low areas" bitmask was set *or* if the low bit in the "high areas" bitmap was set (which would mark all addresses below 1TB for hugepage). With this patch, any given address is governed by a single bitmap. Addresses below 4GB are marked for hugepage if and only if their bit is set in the "low areas" bitmap (256M granularity). Addresses between 4GB and 1TB are marked for hugepage iff the low bit in the "high areas" bitmap is set. Higher addresses are marked for hugepage iff their bit in the "high areas" bitmap is set (1TB granularity). To avoid conflicts, this patch must be applied on top of BenH's pending patch for 64k base page size [0]. As such, this patch also addresses a hugepage problem introduced by that patch. That patch allows hugepages of 1MB in size on hardware which supports it, however, that won't work when using 4k pages (4 level pagetable), because in that case hugepage PTEs are stored at the PMD level, and each PMD entry maps 2MB. This patch simply disallows hugepages in that case (we can do something cleverer to re-enable them some other day). Built, booted, and a handful of hugepage related tests passed on POWER5 LPAR (both ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc64).

2005-11-06[PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pagesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel base page size to 64K. The resulting kernel still boots on any hardware. On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently. Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the information from the newer hypervisors.

2005-11-06[PATCH] kbuild: permanently fix kernel configuration include messRussell King
Include autoconf.h into every kernel compilation via the gcc command line using -imacros. This ensures that we have the kernel configuration included from the start, rather than relying on each file having #include <linux/config.h> as appropriate. History has shown that this is something which is difficult to get right. Since we now include the kernel configuration automatically, make configcheck becomes meaningless, so remove it.

2005-11-05[PATCH] phy address mask support for generic phy layerMatt Porter
Adds a phy_mask field to struct mii_bus and uses it. This field indicates each phy address to be ignored when probing the mdio bus. This support is needed for the fs_enet and ibm_emac drivers to be converted to the generic phy layer among other drivers. Many systems lock up on probing certain phy addresses or probing doesn't return 0xffff when nothing is found at the address. A new driver I'm working on also makes use of this mask.

2005-11-04[PATCH] nvidiafb: Geforce 7800 series support addedCalin A. Culianu
This adds support for the Nvidia Geforce 7800 series of cards to the nvidiafb framebuffer driver. All it does is add the PCI device id for the 7800, 7800 GTX, 7800 GO, and 7800 GTX GO cards to the module device table for the nvidiafb.ko driver, so that nvidiafb.ko will actually work on these cards. I also added the relevant PCI device ids to linux/pci_ids.h I tested it on my 7800 GTX here and it works like a charm. I now can get framebuffer support on this card! Woo hoo!!

2005-11-04NFSv4: Fix problem with OPEN_DOWNGRADETrond Myklebust
RFC 3530 states that for OPEN_DOWNGRADE "The share_access and share_deny bits specified must be exactly equal to the union of the share_access and share_deny bits specified for some subset of the OPENs in effect for current openowner on the current file. Setattr is currently violating the NFSv4 rules for OPEN_DOWNGRADE in that it may cause a downgrade from OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH to OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE despite the fact that there exists no open file with O_WRONLY access mode.

2005-11-04powerpc: Fix random memory corruption in merged elf.hMichael Ellerman
The merged verison of ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS is basically the PPC64 version, with a memset that came from PPC and a few types abstracted out into #defines. But it's not _quite_ right. The first problem is we calculate the number of registers with: nregs = sizeof(struct pt_regs) / sizeof(ELF_GREG_TYPE) For a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel that's bogus because the registers are 64 bits, but ELF_GREG_TYPE is u32, so nregs == 88 which is wrong. The other problem is the memset, which assumes a struct pt_regs is smaller than a struct elf_regs. For a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel that's false. The fix is to calculate the number of regs using sizeof(unsigned long), which should always be right, and just memset the whole damn thing _before_ copying the registers in.

2005-11-03powerpc: Cleanup vpa codeMichael Ellerman
register_vpa() doesn't actually do a VPA register call it just uses the flags you pass it, so rename it to vpa_call() to be clearer. We can then define register_vpa() and unregister_vpa() which are both simple wrappers around vpa_call(). (we'll need unregister_vpa() for kexec soon) We can then cleanup vpa_init(), and because vpa_init() is only called from platforms/pseries we remove the definition in asm-ppc64/smp.h.
