2008-12-02powerpc: Use physical cpu id when setting the processor affinityKumar Gala
In the CONFIG_SMP case the irq_choose_cpu() code was returning back a logical cpu id not the physical id. We were writing that directly into the HW register. We need to be calling get_hard_smp_processor_id() so irq_choose_cpu() always returns a physical cpu id.

2008-12-02vmscan: evict streaming IO firstRik van Riel
Count the insertion of new pages in the statistics used to drive the pageout scanning code. This should help the kernel quickly evict streaming file IO. We count on the fact that new file pages start on the inactive file LRU and new anonymous pages start on the active anon list. This means streaming file IO will increment the recent scanned file statistic, while leaving the recent rotated file statistic alone, driving pageout scanning to the file LRUs. Pageout activity does its own list manipulation.

2008-12-02bdi: register sysfs bdi device only once per queueKay Sievers
Devices which share the same queue, like floppies and mtd devices, get registered multiple times in the bdi interface, but bdi accounts only the last registered device of the devices sharing one queue. On remove, all earlier registered devices leak, stay around in sysfs, and cause "duplicate filename" errors if the devices are re-created. This prevents the creation of multiple bdi interfaces per queue, and the bdi device will carry the dev_t name of the block device which is the first one registered, of the pool of devices using the same queue.

2008-12-02nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash fix #2Junjiro R. Okajima
The previous patch from Alan Cox ("nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash", commit 731572d39fcd3498702eda4600db4c43d51e0b26) fixed the problem where knfsd crashes on exported shmemfs objects and strict overcommit is set. But the patch forgot supporting the case when CONFIG_SECURITY is disabled. This patch copies a part of his fix which is mainly for detecting a bug earlier.

2008-12-02amd74xx: workaround unreliable AltStatus register for nVidia controllersBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
It seems that on some nVidia controllers using AltStatus register can be unreliable so default to Status register if the PCI device is in Compatibility Mode. In order to achieve this: * Add ide_pci_is_in_compatibility_mode() inline helper to <linux/ide.h>. * Add IDE_HFLAG_BROKEN_ALTSTATUS host flag and set it in amd74xx host driver for nVidia controllers in Compatibility Mode. * Teach actual_try_to_identify() and drive_is_ready() about the new flag. This fixes the regression caused by removal of CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ config option in 2.6.25 and using AltStatus register unconditionally when available (kernel.org bugs #11659 and #10216). [ Moreover for CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ=y (which is what most people and distributions use) it never worked correctly. ] Thanks to Remy LABENE and Lars Winterfeld for help with debugging the problem.

2008-12-02tracing/function-graph-tracer: support for x86-64Frederic Weisbecker
Impact: extend and enable the function graph tracer to 64-bit x86 This patch implements the support for function graph tracer under x86-64. Both static and dynamic tracing are supported. This causes some small CPP conditional asm on arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c I wanted to use probe_kernel_read/write to make the return address saving/patching code more generic but it causes tracing recursion. That would be perhaps useful to implement a notrace version of these function for other archs ports. Note that arch/x86/process_64.c is not traced, as in X86-32. I first thought __switch_to() was responsible of crashes during tracing because I believed current task were changed inside but that's actually not the case (actually yes, but not the "current" pointer). So I will have to investigate to find the functions that harm here, to enable tracing of the other functions inside (but there is no issue at this time, while process_64.c stays out of -pg flags). A little possible race condition is fixed inside this patch too. When the tracer allocate a return stack dynamically, the current depth is not initialized before but after. An interrupt could occur at this time and, after seeing that the return stack is allocated, the tracer could try to trace it with a random uninitialized depth. It's a prevention, even if I hadn't problems with it.

This patch adds a workaround to enable the artificial capture boost switch. When this switch is on, the whole analog capature level is boost up. However, this results in the lower capture resolution.

2008-12-01dccp: Feature activation handlersGerrit Renker
This patch provides the post-processing of feature negotiation state, after the negotiation has completed. To this purpose, handlers are used and added to the dccp_feat_table. Each handler is passed a boolean flag whether the RX or TX side of the feature is meant. Several handlers are provided already, new handlers can easily be added. The initialisation is now fully dynamic, i.e. CCIDs are activated only after the feature negotiation. The integration of this dynamic activation is done in the subsequent patches. Thanks to Wei Yongjun for pointing out the necessity of skipping over empty Confirm options while copying the negotiated feature values.

2008-12-01i82875p_edac: fix module removeJarkko Lavinen
Fix module removal bugs of i82875p_edac. Also i82975x_edac code seems to have the same module removal bugs as in i82875p_edac. The problems were: 1. In module removal i82875p_remove_one() is never called. Variable i82875p_registered is newer changed from 1, which guarantees i82875p_remove_one() is not called (and even if it were called, it would be called in wrong order). As a result, the edac_mc workque is not stopped and keeps probing. If kernel debugging options are not enabled, user may not notice anything going wrong. if debugging options are enabled and I do "rmmod i82875p_edac", I get: edac debug: edac_pci_workq_function() checking BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f882d16f ... call trace: [<f8834df3>] ? edac_mc_workq_function+0x55/0x7e [edac_core] [<c0233974>] ? run_workqueue+0xd7/0x1a5 [<c023392f>] ? run_workqueue+0x92/0x1a5 [<f8834d9e>] ? edac_mc_workq_function+0x0/0x7e [edac_core] [<c0233af9>] ? worker_thread+0xb7/0xc3 [<c0236a7b>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x33 [<c0233a42>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0xc3 [<c0236809>] ? kthread+0x3b/0x61 [<c02367ce>] ? kthread+0x0/0x61 [<c0204587>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 Fix for this is to get rid of needles variable i82875p_registered altogether and run i82875p_remove_one() *before* pci_unregister_driver(). 2. edac_mc_del_mc() uses mci after freeing mci edac_mc_del_mc() calls calls edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device(). The kobject refcount of mci drops to 0 and mci is freed. After this mci is accessed via debug print and i82875p_remove_one() still uses mci->pvt and tries to free mci again with edac_mc_free(). The fix for this is add kobject_get(&mci->edac_mci_kobj) after edac_mc_alloc(). Then the mci is still available after returning from edac_mc_del_mc() with refcount 1, and mci->pvt is still available. When i82875p_remove_one() finally calls edac_mc_free(), this will cause kobject_put() and mci is released properly.

Log shows the missing resource problem: EDAC DEBUG: i82875p_probe1() PCI: 0000:00:06.0 reg 10 32bit mmio: [fecf0000, fecf0fff] pci 0000:00:06.0: device not available because of BAR 0 [0xfecf0000-0xfecf0fff] collisions EDAC i82875p: i82875p_setup_overfl_dev(): Failed to enable overflow device The patch below fixes this by calling pci_bus_assign_resources() after the overflow device is revealed and added to the bus. With this patch I am again able to load and use the module.

2008-12-01fbdev: fix FB console blankingDmitry Baryshkov
The commit aef7db4bd5a3b6068dfa05919a3d685199eed116 fixed the problem with recursive locking in fb blanking code if blank is caused by user setting the /sys/class/graphics/fb*/blank. However this broke the fbcon timeout blanking. If you use a driver that defines ->fb_blank operation and at the same time that driver relies on other driver (e.g. backlight or lcd class) to blank the screen, when the fbcon times out and tries to blank the fb, it will call only fb driver blanker and won't notify the other driver. Thus FB output is disabled, but the screen isn't blanked. Restore fbcon blanking and at the same time apply the proper fix for the above problem: if fbcon_blank is called with FBINFO_FLAG_USEREVENT, we are already called through notification from fb_blank, thus we don't have to blank the fb again.

2008-12-01ntfs: don't fool kernel-docRandy Dunlap
kernel-doc handles macros now (it has for quite some time), so change the ntfs_debug() macro's kernel-doc to be just before the macro instead of before a phony function prototype.

2008-12-01kernel-doc: handle varargs cleanlyRandy Dunlap
The method for listing varargs in kernel-doc notation is: * @...: these arguments are printed by the @fmt argument but scripts/kernel-doc is confused: it always lists varargs as: ... variable arguments and ignores the @...: line's description, but then prints that line after the list of function parameters as though it's not part of the function parameters. This patch makes kernel-doc print the supplied @... description if it is present; otherwise a boilerplate "variable arguments" is printed.

2008-12-01lib/idr.c: fix rcu related race with idr_findManfred Spraul
2nd part of the fixes needed for http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11796. When the idr tree is either grown or shrunk, then the update to the number of layers and the top pointer were not atomic. This race caused crashes. The attached patch fixes that by replicating the layers counter in each layer, thus idr_find doesn't need idp->layers anymore.

2008-12-01DMA-API.txt: fix description of pci_map_sg/dma_map_sg scatterlists handlingFUJITA Tomonori
- pci_map_sg/dma_map_sg are used with a scatter gather list that doesn't come from the block layer (e.g. some network drivers do). - how IOMMUs merge adjacent elements of the scatter/gather list is independent of how the block layer determines sees elements.

2008-12-01frv: fix mmap2 error handlingDavid Howells
Fix the error handling in sys_mmap2(). Currently, if the pgoff check fails, fput() might have to be called (which it isn't), so do the pgoff check first, before fget() is called.
