2008-12-16x86: support always running TSC on Intel CPUsVenki Pallipadi
Impact: reward non-stop TSCs with good TSC-based clocksources, etc. Add support for CPUID_0x80000007_Bit8 on Intel CPUs as well. This bit means that the TSC is invariant with C/P/T states and always runs at constant frequency. With Intel CPUs, we have 3 classes * CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate and does not stop n C-states * CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate, but will stop in deep C-states * CPUs where TSC rate will vary based on P/T-states and TSC will stop in deep C-states. To cover these 3, one feature bit (CONSTANT_TSC) is not enough. So, add a second bit (NONSTOP_TSC). CONSTANT_TSC indicates that the TSC runs at constant frequency irrespective of P/T-states, and NONSTOP_TSC indicates that TSC does not stop in deep C-states. CPUID_0x8000000_Bit8 indicates both these feature bit can be set. We still have CONSTANT_TSC _set_ and NONSTOP_TSC _not_set_ on some older Intel CPUs, based on model checks. We can use TSC on such CPUs for time, as long as those CPUs do not support/enter deep C-states.

2008-12-16[SCSI] mpt fusion: clear list of outstanding commands on host resetJames Bottomley
A bug in the fusion driver was exposed by the switch to block timeout. Basically, drivers are supposed to terminate commands once error handling begins on them. The fusion apparently wasn't doing this. Under the old timeout regime, completions on terminated commands would by and large get ignored because of the way command timeouts used to work. The new block timers are very intolerant to this, though, becuase the request gets cleaned and freed.

2008-12-16V4L/DVB (9885): drivers/media Kconfig's: fix bugzilla #12204Mauro Carvalho Chehab
When the tuner modules were moved to common/tuners, a separate customize option were added for tuners. However, the automatic selection of the tuners were still using the older option. This causes that the automatic selection to fail, if DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE is selected. Also, since those tuners are now under MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE menu, if you unset MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE, you can't manually select the tuners. This patch fixes this error by replacing DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE by MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE on all places were a tuner is selected. The patch were generated by this small script: for i in `find drivers/media -name Kconfig`; do cat $i|perl -ne 's/(MEDIA_TUNER.*)DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE/\1MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE/; print $_' >a mv a $i done Also, manually reordered the tuner entries.

2008-12-16V4L/DVB (9781): [PATCH] Cablestar 2 I2C retries (fix CableStar2 support)Antti Seppälä
At some point the Flexcop driver was changed to support newer Flexcop cards. These modifications however broke the detection of Cablestar 2 DVB-C cards. The reason is that the earlier version of the driver used to retry unsuccessful i2c operations. The demodulator of Cablestar 2 cards (stv0297) seems to be very dependent on these retries and adding them back fixes Cablestar detection. This patch restores this behaviour for the CableStar2.

This was because we were not reading the bulk pipe faster than the firmware was injecting information, which would result in a backlog.

2008-12-16x86, mm: limit MAXMEM on 64-bitIngo Molnar
on 64-bit x86 the physical memory limit is controlled by the sparsemem bits - which are 44 bits right now. But MAXMEM (the max pfn number e820 parsing will allow to enter our sizing routines) is set to 0x00003fffffffffff, i.e. 46 bits - that's too large because it overlaps into the vmalloc range. So couple MAXMEM to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS, and add a comment that the maximum of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS is 45 bits. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-12-16x86: consolidate __swp_XXX() macrosJan Beulich
Impact: cleanup, code robustization The __swp_...() macros silently relied upon which bits are used for _PAGE_FILE and _PAGE_PROTNONE. After having changed _PAGE_PROTNONE in our Xen kernel to no longer overlap _PAGE_PAT, live locks and crashes were reported that could have been avoided if these macros properly used the symbolic constants. Since, as pointed out earlier, for Xen Dom0 support mainline likewise will need to eliminate the conflict between _PAGE_PAT and _PAGE_PROTNONE, this patch does all the necessary adjustments, plus it introduces a mechanism to check consistency between MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT and the actual encoding macros. This also fixes a latent bug in that x86-64 used a 6-bit mask in __swp_type(), and if MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT was increased beyond 5 in (the seemingly unrelated) linux/swap.h, this would have resulted in a collision with _PAGE_FILE. Non-PAE 32-bit code gets similarly adjusted for its pte_to_pgoff() and pgoff_to_pte() calculations. Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
