b2982649ce Following the same idea, it occurs to me that we should only update
disk stat when "now" is different from disk->stamp.  Otherwise, we
are again needlessly adding zero to the stats.

20e5c81fcf [patch] remove gendisk->stamp_idle field
struct gendisk has these two fields: stamp, stamp_idle.  Update to
stamp_idle is always in sync with stamp and they are always the same.
Therefore, it does not add any value in having two fields tracking
same timestamp.  Suggest to remove it.

Also, we should only update gendisk stats with non-zero value.
Advantage is that we don't have to needlessly calculate memory address,
and then add zero to the content.

444d1d9bb5 [PATCH] qlogic lockup fix
If qla2x00_probe_one()'s call to qla2x00_iospace_config() fails, we call
qla2x00_free_device() to clean up.  But because ha->dpc_pid hasn't been set
yet, qla2x00_free_device() tries to stop a kernel thread which hasn't started
yet.  It does wait_for_completion() against an uninitialised completion struct
and the kernel hangs up.

Fix it by initialising ha->dpc_pid a bit earlier.

2.6.14-rc2-pa2 - make SBA more anal about invalidating pdir entries

Previous code cleared the valid flag a pdir entry but it did NOT
guarantee this change was visible to the PDIR before writing
the PCOM register. Ie the SBA could pick up a stale entry if
the write happened to hit the SBA before the cacheline was flushed
from the cache.

Long term, I think I want to make this a compile time flag.
Developement tree should enable anal pdir checking by default
and Debian can disable it with either a CONFIG option
or one-line patch. fdc/sync options can only negatively affect
performance though I haven't measure how much yet.
If someone can run netperf TCP_RR across gige and compare
-pa1 and -pa2, that would be sufficient.

Cleaned up the use of "fdc" to make sure it's using "kernel"
space id (specify sr0 but maps to sr4-7). It seems a bit fragile
to assume "sr1" gets loaded with KERNEL_SPACE which is how the
code works today.

sata_qstor strays into a nasty area - gcc handling of wide enums is
full of bugs that got fixed between gcc versions creating portability
nightmare.  Single-member enums are safe, so are ones that stay within
the range of int or unsigned int.  Anything beyond that is asking for
trouble.

Declaration of constants split in two enums, taking the ~0UL one into
a separate enum.

6985c43f39 [PATCH] Three one-liners in md.c
The main problem fixes is that in certain situations stopping md arrays may
take longer than you expect, or may require multiple attempts.  This would
only happen when resync/recovery is happening.

This patch fixes three vaguely related bugs.

1/ The recent change to use kthreads got the setting of the
   process name wrong.  This fixes it.
2/ The recent change to use kthreads lost the ability for
   md threads to be signalled with SIG_KILL.  This restores that.
3/ There is a long standing bug in that if:
    - An array needs recovery (onto a hot-spare) and
    - The recovery is being blocked because some other array being
       recovered shares a physical device and
    - The recovery thread is killed with SIG_KILL
   Then the recovery will appear to have completed with no IO being
   done, which can cause data corruption.
   This patch makes sure that incomplete recovery will be treated as
   incomplete.

Note that any kernel affected by bug 2 will not suffer the problem of bug
3, as the signal can never be delivered.  Thus the current 2.6.14-rc
kernels are not susceptible to data corruption.  Note also that if arrays
are shutdown (with "mdadm -S" or "raidstop") then the problem doesn't
occur.  It only happens if a SIGKILL is independently delivered as done by
'init' when shutting down.

Changes all spinlocks that can be held during an irq handler to disable

irqsave/irqrestore variants for robustness and readability.

In raw1394.c:handle_iso_listen(), don't grab host_info_lock at all -- we're
not accessing host_info_list or host_count, and holding this lock while
trying to tasklet_kill the iso tasklet this can cause an ABBA deadlock if
ohci:dma_rcv_tasklet is running and tries to grab host_info_lock in
raw1394.c:receive_iso.  Test program attached reliably deadlocks all SMP
machines I have been able to test without this patch.

9f38c636ab [PATCH] b44: alternate allocation option for DMA descriptors
This is a (final?) hack to support the odd DMA allocation requirements
of the b44 hardware.  The b44 hardware has a 30-bit DMA mask.  On x86,
anything less than a 32-bit DMA mask forces allocations into the 16MB
GFP_DMA range.  The memory there is somewhat limited, often resulting
in an inability to initialize the b44 driver.

This hack uses streaming DMA allocation APIs in order to provide an
alternative in case the GFP_DMA allocation fails.  It is somewhat ugly,
but not much worse than the similar existing hacks to support SKB
allocations in the same driver.  FWIW, I have received positive
feedback on this from several Fedora users.

6ba98d311d [PATCH] via-rhine: change mdelay to msleep and remove from ISR path
Get rid of the mdelay call in rhine_disable_linkmon.  The function
is called from the via-rhine versions of mdio_read and mdio_write.
Those functions are indirectly called from rhine_check_media and
rhine_tx_timeout, both of which can be called in interrupt context.

So, create tx_timeout_task and check_media_task as instances of struct
work_struct inside of rhine_private.  Then, change rhine_tx_timeout to
invoke schedule_work for tx_timeout_task (i.e. rhine_tx_timeout_task),
moving the work to process context.  Also, change rhine_error (invoked
from rhine_interrupt) to invoke schedule_work for check_media_task
(i.e. rhine_check_media_task), which simply calls rhine_check media
in process context.  Finally, add a call to flush_scheduled_work in
rhine_close to avoid any resource conflicts with pending work items.

bc0a743860 [PATCH] rcu in bpqether driver.
From Suzanne Wood <suzannew@cs.pdx.edu>:

Clarify RCU implementation in bpqether.c.

Because bpq_new_device() calls list_add_rcu() and bpq_free_device() calls
list_del_rcu(), substitute list_for_each_entry_rcu() for
list_for_each_entry() in bpq_get_ax25_dev() and in bpq_seq_start().

Add rcu dereference protection in bpq_seq_next().

The rcu_read_lock()/unlock() in bpq_device_event() are removed because
netdev event handlers are called with RTNL locking in place.

FYI: bpq_free_device() calls list_del_rcu() which, per list.h, requires
synchronize_rcu() which can block or call_rcu() or call_rcu_bh() which
cannot block.  Herbert Xu notes that synchronization is done here by
unregister_netdevice().  This calls synchronize_net() which in turn uses
synchronize_rcu().

ad4ebed00f [PATCH] S2io: Offline diagnostics fixes
This patch fixes the following bugs with offline diagnostics
code(run with "ethtool -t").

1. After running offline diagnostics, adapter would report
corrupted packets on receive. This was because of adapter not
being brought out of "RLDRAM test mode".
2. Current EEPROM test works only for Xframe I. Since Xframe II
uses different interface(SPI), support for this interface has
been added. Also, since SPI supports write access to all areas
of EEPROM, negative testing is done only for Xframe I.
3. Return values from subfunctions of offline diagnostics have
been corrected.
4. In register test, expected value from rx_queue_cfg register
is made to depend on adapter type.
5. After the test, need to restore values at EEPROM offsets
0x4F0 and 0x7F0. These locations were modified as part of test.
6. Use macro SPECIAL_REG_WRITE for write access to mc_rldram_test_ctrl
register. Also, couple of unnecessary writes to mc_rldram_test_ctrl
have been removed.

bb7e257ef8 [PATCH] vesafb: Fix display corruption on display blank
Reported by: Bob Tracy <rct@gherkin.frus.com>

 "...I've got a Toshiba notebook (730XCDT -- Pentium 150MMX) for which
  I'm using the Vesa FB driver.  When the machine has been idle for some
  time and the driver attempts to powerdown the display, rather than the
  display going blank, it goes gray with several strange lines.  When I
  hit the "shift" key or other-wise wake up the display, the old video
  state is not fully restored..."

vesafb recently added a blank method which has only 2 states, powerup and
powerdown.  The powerdown state is used for all blanking levels, but in his
case, powerdown does not work correctly for higher levels of display
powersaving. Thus, for intermediate power levels, use software blanking,
and use only hardware blanking for an explicit powerdown.

13b58ee518 [PATCH] USB: fix bug in handling of highspeed usb HID devices
During the development of an USB device I found a bug in the handling of
Highspeed HID devices in the kernel.

What happened?

Highspeed HID devices are correctly recognized and enumerated by the
kernel. But even if usbhid kernel module is loaded, no HID reports are
received by the kernel.

The output of the hardware USB analyzer told me that the host doesn't
even poll for interrupt IN transfers (even the "interrupt in" USB
transfer are polled by the host).

After some debugging in hid-core.c I've found the reason.

In case of a highspeed device, the endpoint interval is re-calculated in
driver/usb/input/hid-core.c:

line 1669:
             /* handle potential highspeed HID correctly */
             interval = endpoint->bInterval;
             if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
                   interval = 1 << (interval - 1);

Basically this calculation is correct (refer to USB 2.0 spec, 9.6.6).
This new calculated value of "interval" is used as input for
usb_fill_int_urb:

line 1685:

            usb_fill_int_urb(hid->urbin, dev, pipe, hid->inbuf, 0,
                   hid_irq_in, hid, interval);

Unfortunately the same calculation as above is done a second time in
usb_fill_int_urb in the file include/linux/usb.h:

line 933:
        if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
                urb->interval = 1 << (interval - 1);
        else
                urb->interval = interval;

This means, that if the endpoint descriptor (of a high speed device)
specifies e.g. bInterval = 7, the urb->interval gets the value:

hid-core.c: interval = 1 << (7-1) = 0x40 = 64
urb->interval = 1 << (interval -1) = 1 << (63) = integer overflow

Because of this the value of urb->interval is sometimes negative and is
rejected in core/urb.c:
line 353:
                /* too small? */
                if (urb->interval <= 0)
                        return -EINVAL;

The conclusion is, that the recalculaton of the interval (which is
necessary for highspeed) should not be made twice, because this is
simply wrong. ;-)

Re-calculation in usb_fill_int_urb makes more sense, because it is the
most general approach. So it would make sense to remove it from
hid-core.c.

Because in hid-core.c the interval variable is only used for calling
usb_fill_int_urb, it is no problem to remove the highspeed
re-calculation in this file.

Increased use of scatter-gather by usb-storage driver after 2.6.13 has
exposed a buggy codepath in isp116x-hcd, which was probably never
visited before: bug happened only for those urbs, for which
URB_SHORT_NOT_OK was set AND short transfer occurred.

The fix attached was tested in 2 ways: (a) it fixed failing
initialization of a flash drive with an embedded hub; (b) the fix was
tested with 'usbtest' against a modified g_zero driver (on top of
net2280), which generated short bulk IN transfers of various lengths
including multiples and non-multiples of max_packet_length.

0aec4867dc [PATCH] SVGATextMode fix
Fix bug 5441.

I didn't know about messy programs like svgatextmode...  Couldn't this be
integrated in some linux/drivers/video/console/svgacon.c ?...  So because
of the existence of the svgatextmode program, the kernel is not supposed to
touch to CRT_OVERFLOW/SYNC_END/DISP/DISP_END/OFFSET ?

Disabling the check in vgacon_resize() might help indeed, but I'm really
not sure whether it will work for any chipset: in my patch, CRT registers
are set at each console switch, since stty rows/cols apply to consoles
separately...

The attached solution is to keep the test, but if it fails, we assume that
the caller knows what it does (i.e.  it is svgatextmode) and then disable
any further call to vgacon_doresize.  Svgatextmode is usually used to
_expand_ the display, not to shrink it.  And it is harmless in the case of
a too big stty rows/cols: the display will just be cropped.  I tested it on
my laptop, and it works fine with svgatextmode.

A better solution would be that svgatextmode explicitely tells the kernel
not to care about video timing, but for this an interface needs be defined
and svgatextmode be patched.

e6158b4a56 [ARM] 3002/1: Wrong parameter to uart_update_timeout() in drivers/serial/pxa.c
Patch from Lothar Wassmann

The function serial_pxa_set_termios() is calling uart_update_timeout()
with the baud rate divisor as third parameter, while
uart_update_timeout() expects the baud rate in this place.
This results in a bogus port->timeout which is proportional to the
baud rate.

Patch from Ben Dooks

The s3c2410 serial driver is missing static declerations
on several functions that are not exported, and have no
need of being exported outside the driver

ad6ce87e5b [PATCH] dell_rbu: changes in packet update mechanism
In the current dell_rbu code ver 2.0 the packet update mechanism makes the
user app dump every individual packet in to the driver.

This adds in efficiency as every packet update makes the
/sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading and data files to disappear and reappear
again.  Thus the user app needs to wait for the files to reappear to dump
another packet.  This slows down the packet update tremendously in case of
large number of packets.  I am submitting a new patch for dell_rbu which will
change the way we do packet updates;

In the new method the user app will create a new single file which has already
packetized the rbu image and all the packets are now staged in this file.

This driver also creates a new entry in
/sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/packet_size ; the user needs to echo the packet
size here before downloading the packet file.

The user should do the following:

 create one single file which has all the packets stacked together.
 echo the packet size in to /sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/packet_size.
 echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading
 cat the packetfile > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/data
 echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading

The driver takes the file which came through /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/data
and takes chunks of paket_size data from it and place in contiguous memory.

This makes packet update process very efficient and fast.  As all the packet
update happens in one single operation.  The user can still read back the
downloaded file from /sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/data.

e5945b4f60 [PATCH] s390: ccw device reconnect oops.
Search for a disconnect ccw_device on the ccw bus rather than on the css
bus (was a typo in patch I did for the klist conversion).  A cast to an
embedding ccw_device from an embedded device in a struct subchannel will
lead us to oopses.
