possible any longer. With the previous patch ->group_leader itself will
change ->child_reaper on exit.
Henceforth find_new_reaper() is the only function (apart from

We currently follow blindly what the partition table lies about the
disk, and let the kernel create block devices which can not be accessed.
Trying to identify the device leads to kernel logs full of:
sdb: rw=0, want=73392, limit=28800
attempt to access beyond end of device
Here is an example of a broken partition table, where sda2 starts
behind the end of the disk, and sdb3 is larger than the entire disk:
Disk /dev/sdb: 14 MB, 14745600 bytes
1 heads, 29 sectors/track, 993 cylinders, total 28800 sectors
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 29 7800 3886 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2 37801 45601 3900+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdb3 15602 73402 28900+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdb4 23403 28796 2697 83 Linux
The kernel creates these completely invalid devices, which can not be
accessed, or may lead to other unpredictable failures:
grep . /sys/class/block/sdb*/{start,size}
/sys/class/block/sdb/size:28800
/sys/class/block/sdb1/start:29
/sys/class/block/sdb1/size:7772
/sys/class/block/sdb2/start:37801
/sys/class/block/sdb2/size:7801
/sys/class/block/sdb3/start:15602
/sys/class/block/sdb3/size:57801
/sys/class/block/sdb4/start:23403
/sys/class/block/sdb4/size:5394
With this patch, we ignore partitions which start behind the end of the disk,
and limit partitions to the end of the disk if they pretend to be larger:
grep . /sys/class/block/sdb*/{start,size}
/sys/class/block/sdb/size:28800
/sys/class/block/sdb1/start:29
/sys/class/block/sdb1/size:7772
/sys/class/block/sdb3/start:15602
/sys/class/block/sdb3/size:13198
/sys/class/block/sdb4/start:23403
/sys/class/block/sdb4/size:5394
These warnings are printed to the kernel log:
sdb: p2 ignored, start 37801 is behind the end of the disk
sdb: p3 size 57801 limited to end of disk

binfmt_elf_fdpic seems to have grabbed a hard-coded hack from an ancient
version of binfmt_elf in order to try and fix up initial stack alignment
on multi-threaded x86, which while in addition to being unused, was also
pushed down beyond the first set of operations on the stack pointer,
negating the entire purpose.
These days, we have an architecture independent arch_align_stack(), so we
switch to using that instead. Move the initial alignment up before the
initial stores while we're at it.

A very large directory with many read failures (either due to storage
problems, or due to invalid size & blocks from corruption) will generate a
printk storm as the filesystem continues to try to read all the blocks.
This flood of messages can tie up the box until it is complete - which may
be a very long time, especially for very large corrupted values.
This is fixed by only reporting the corruption once each time we try to
read the directory.

We could run into ENOSPC error on ext2, even when there is free blocks on
the filesystem.
The problem is triggered in the case the goal block group has 0 free
blocks , and the rest block groups are skipped due to the check of
"free_blocks < windowsz/2". Current code could fall back to non
reservation allocation to prevent early ENOSPC after examing all the block
groups with reservation on , but this code was bypassed if the reservation
window is turned off already, which is true in this case.
This patch fixed two issues:
1) We don't need to turn off block reservation if the goal block group has
0 free blocks left and continue search for the rest of block groups.
Current code the intention is to turn off the block reservation if the
goal allocation group has a few (some) free blocks left (not enough for
make the desired reservation window),to try to allocation in the goal
block group, to get better locality. But if the goal blocks have 0 free
blocks, it should leave the block reservation on, and continues search for
the next block groups,rather than turn off block reservation completely.
2) we don't need to check the window size if the block reservation is off.
The problem was originally found and fixed in ext4.

Implement support for HW color expansion of 1bpp images, along with some
improvements to the FIFO handling and other accel operations.
The offset fixup code is now unnecessary as the fbcon core will call our
set_par upon switch back from KD_GRAPHICS before anything else happens. I
removed it as it would slow down accel operations.
The fifo wait has been improved to avoid hitting the HW register as often,
and the various accel ops are now performing better caching of register
values.
Overall, this improve accel performances. The imageblit acceleration does
result in a small overall regression in performances on some machines (on
the order of 5% on some x86), probably becaus the SW path provides a
better bus utilisation, but I decided to ingnore that as the performances
is still very good, and on the other hand, some machines such as some
sparc64 get a 3 fold performance improvement.

A memory clock value (MCLK) is changed to a minimum required by a current
mode bandwidth. This usually lowers the MCLK to its minimum (50 MHz) thus
decreasing the card performance. Just leave the MCLK value set by card
BIOS.
The CL-GD5446 Technical Reference Manual point 9.9.1.3 states that if a
pixclock value is close (~1%) to the MCLK or MCLK/2 this may result in a
jitter on the screen. A countermeasure is to use the MCLK as pixclock
source instead of a VCLK. The patch implements this as well.
