2008-10-16ext4: Remove automatic enabling of the HUGE_FILE feature flagTheodore Ts'o

2008-10-16ACPI suspend: Blacklist HP xw4600 Workstation for old code orderingRafael J. Wysocki

2008-10-16ACPI Suspend: Enable ACPI during resume if SCI_EN is not setRafael J. Wysocki
On some machines, like for example MSI Wind U100, the BIOS doesn't enable ACPI before returning control to the OS, which sometimes causes resume to fail. This is against the ACPI specification, which clearly states that "When the platform is waking from an S1, S2 or S3 state, OSPM assumes the hardware is already in the ACPI mode and will not issue an ACPI_ENABLE", but it won't hurt to check the SCI_EN bit and enable ACPI during resume from S3 if this bit is not set. Fortunately, we already have acpi_enable() for that, so use it in the resume code path, before executing _BFS, in analogy with the resume-from-hibernation code path. NOTE: We aren't supposed to set SCI_EN directly, because it's owned by the hardware. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-10-16ACPI suspend: Always use the 32-bit waking vectorRafael J. Wysocki
According to the ACPI specification 2.0c and later, the 64-bit waking vector should be cleared and the 32-bit waking vector should be used, unless we want the wake-up code to be called by the BIOS in Protected Mode. Moreover, some systems (for example HP dv5-1004nr) are known to fail to resume if the 64-bit waking vector is used. Therefore, modify the code to clear the 64-bit waking vector, for FACS version 1 or greater, and set the 32-bit one before suspend. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11368 Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-10-16ACPI: Add the support for _TTS objectZhao Yakui
The _TTS object is defined in the section 7.3 of acpi 3.0b spec. The _TTS control method is executed by the OSPM at the beginning of the sleep transition process for S1,S2, S3, S4, and orderly S5 shutdown. OS will invoke _TTS before it has notified any native mode device drivers of the sleep state transition. The target sleeping state value is passed to the _TTS control method. The _TTS control method is also executed by the OSPM at the end of any sleep transition process when the system transitions to S0 from S1, S2, S3, or S4. The _TTS object should be evaluated after it has notified any native mode device drivers of the end of the sleep state transition. The working state value (0) is passed to the _TTS control method. So it is necessary to add the support for _TTS object. The _TTS object will be evaluated if it exists. At the same time a block notifier is added to the reboot notifier list so that the _TTS object will also be evaluated when the system shutdown. lenb: note that as of Sep 2008, I've not yet seen _TTS in any shipping BIOS. So this patch is to future-proof Linux, rather than fix the installed base. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11132 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2008-10-16ext4: Replace hackish ext4_mb_poll_new_transaction with commit callbackTheodore Ts'o
The multiblock allocator needs to be able to release blocks (and issue a blkdev discard request) when the transaction which freed those blocks is committed. Previously this was done via a polling mechanism when blocks are allocated or freed. A much better way of doing things is to create a jbd2 callback function and attaching the list of blocks to be freed directly to the transaction structure.

2008-10-16FRV: Eliminate NULL test and memset after alloc_bootmemJulia Lawall
As noted by Akinobu Mita in patch b1fceac2b9e04d278316b2faddf276015fc06e3b, alloc_bootmem and related functions never return NULL and always return a zeroed region of memory.

2008-10-16[CIFS] eliminate usage of kthread_stop for cifsdJeff Layton
When cifs_demultiplex_thread was converted to a kthread based kernel thread, great pains were taken to make it so that kthread_stop would be used to bring it down. This just added unnecessary complexity since we needed to use a signal anyway to break out of kernel_recvmsg. Also, cifs_demultiplex_thread does a bit of cleanup as it's exiting, and we need to be certain that this gets done. It's possible for a kthread to exit before its main function is ever run if kthread_stop is called soon after its creation. While I'm not sure that this is a real problem with cifsd now, it could be at some point in the future if cifs_mount is ever changed to bring down the thread quickly. The upshot here is that using kthread_stop to bring down the thread just adds extra complexity with no real benefit. This patch changes the code to use the original method to bring down the thread, but still leaves it so that the thread is actually started with kthread_run.

2008-10-16[CIFS] Add nodfs mount optionSteve French
Older samba server (eg. 3.0.24 from Debian etch) don't work correctly, if DFS paths are used. Such server claim that they support DFS, but fail to process some requests with DFS paths. Starting with Linux 2.6.26, the cifs clients starts sending DFS paths in such situations, rendering it unuseable with older samba servers. The nodfs mount options forces a share to be used with non DFS paths, even if the server claims, that it supports it.

Fill in needed locking around idr accesses, then remove the big kernel lock from the UIO driver. Since there are no in-tree UIO drivers with open() methods, no further BKL pushdown is required.
