2008-08-29Don't trigger softlockup detector on network fs blocked tasksAndi Kleen
Pulling the ethernet cable on a 2.6.27-rc system with NFS mounts currently leads to an ongoing flood of soft lockup detector backtraces for all tasks blocked on the NFS mounts when the hickup takes longer than 120s. I don't think NFS problems should be all that noisy. Luckily there's a reasonably easy way to distingush this case. Don't report task softlockup warnings for tasks in TASK_KILLABLE state, which is used by the network file systems. I believe this patch is a 2.6.27 candidate.

2008-08-29Revert "x86: fix HPET regression in 2.6.26 versus 2.6.25, check hpet against ↵Linus Torvalds
BAR, v3" This reverts commit a2bd7274b47124d2fc4dfdb8c0591f545ba749dd. It wasn't really right to begin with (there's a better fix for the problem with e820 reservations clashing with PCI BAR's pending), but it also actually causes more regressions, so it should be reverted even before the better fix is finalized. Rafael reports that this commit broke AHCI detection, and thus causes the kernel to not boot on his quad core test box. Reported-and-bisected-by: Rafael J.

2008-08-29net: Unbreak userspace usage of linux/mroute.hDavid S. Miller
Nothing in linux/pim.h should be exported to userspace. This should fix the XORP build failure reported by Jose Calhariz, the debain package maintainer. Nothing originally in linux/mroute.h was exported to userspace ever, but some of this stuff started to be when it was moved into this new linux/pim.h, and that was wrong. If we didn't provide these definitions for 10 years we can reasonably expect that applications defined this stuff locally or used GLIBC headers providing the protocol definitions. And as such the only result of this can be conflict and userland build breakage. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-08-29pkt_sched: Fix locking of qdisc_root with qdisc_root_sleeping_lock()Jarek Poplawski
Use qdisc_root_sleeping_lock() instead of qdisc_root_lock() where appropriate. The only difference is while dev is deactivated, when currently we can use a sleeping qdisc with the lock of noop_qdisc. This shouldn't be dangerous since after deactivation root lock could be used only by gen_estimator code, but looks wrong anyway.

2008-08-29[SCSI] fix check of PQ and PDT bits for WLUNsJames Bottomley
For IBM z series certain LUNs can no longer be accessed. This is because kernel version 2.6.19 a check was introduced not to create a generic SCSI device for devices that return PQ=1 and PDT=0x1f. For WLUNs (see SAM-3, p. 41ff) generic SCSI devices should be created unconditionally without looking at the PQ bit, so add a check for WLUNs in with this test.

2008-08-29ALSA: oxygen: fix distorted output on AK4396-based cardsClemens Ladisch
When changing the sample rate, the CMI8788's master clock output becomes unstable for a short time. The AK4396 needs the master clock to do SPI writes, so writing to an AK4396 control register directly after a sample rate change will garble the value. In our case, this leads to the DACs being misconfigured to I2S sample format, which results in a wrong output level and horrible distortions on samples louder than -6 dB. To fix this, we need to wait until the new master clock signal has become stable before doing SPI writes.

2008-08-29remove blk_register_filter and blk_unregister_filter in gendiskFUJITA Tomonori
This patch remove blk_register_filter and blk_unregister_filter in gendisk, and adds them to sd.c, sr.c. and ide-cd.c The commit abf5439370491dd6fbb4fe1a7939680d2a9bc9d4 moved cmdfilter from gendisk to request_queue. It turned out that in some subsystems multiple gendisks share a single request_queue.

Add the ability to turn FIPS-compliant mode on or off at boot In order to be FIPS compliant, several check may need to be preformed that may be construed as unusefull in a non-compliant mode. This patch allows us to set a kernel flag incating that we are running in a fips-compliant mode from boot up.

This patch creates a new interface algorithm testing. A test can be requested for a particular implementation of an algorithm.

2008-08-28dlm: detect available userspace daemonDavid Teigland
If dlm_controld (the userspace daemon that controls the setup and recovery of the dlm) fails, the kernel should shut down the lockspaces in the kernel rather than leaving them running. This is detected by having dlm_controld hold a misc device open while running, and if the kernel detects a close while the daemon is still needed, it stops the lockspaces in the kernel. Knowing that the userspace daemon isn't running also allows the lockspace create/remove routines to avoid waiting on the daemon for join/leave operations.

2008-08-29SELinux: add boundary support and thread context assignmentKaiGai Kohei
The purpose of this patch is to assign per-thread security context under a constraint. It enables multi-threaded server application to kick a request handler with its fair security context, and helps some of userspace object managers to handle user's request. When we assign a per-thread security context, it must not have wider permissions than the original one. Because a multi-threaded process shares a single local memory, an arbitary per-thread security context also means another thread can easily refer violated information. The constraint on a per-thread security context requires a new domain has to be equal or weaker than its original one, when it tries to assign a per-thread security context. Bounds relationship between two types is a way to ensure a domain can never have wider permission than its bounds. We can define it in two explicit or implicit ways. The first way is using new TYPEBOUNDS statement. It enables to define a boundary of types explicitly. The other one expand the concept of existing named based hierarchy. If we defines a type with "." separated name like "httpd_t.php", toolchain implicitly set its bounds on "httpd_t". This feature requires a new policy version. The 24th version (POLICYDB_VERSION_BOUNDARY) enables to ship them into kernel space, and the following patch enables to handle it.
