2005-08-05[PATCH] rtc: msleep() cannot be used from interruptPetr Vandrovec
Since the beginning of July my Opteron box was randomly crashing and being rebooted by hardware watchdog. Today it finally did it in front of me, and this patch will hopefully fix it. The problem is that at the end of June (the 28th, to be exact: commit 47f176fdaf8924bc83fddcf9658f2fd3ef60d573, "[PATCH] Using msleep() instead of HZ") rtc_get_rtc_time was converted to use msleep() instead of busy waiting. But rtc_get_rtc_time is used by hpet_rtc_interrupt, and scheduling is not allowed during interrupt. So I'm reverting this part of original change, replacing msleep() back with busy loop. The original code was busy waiting for up to 20ms, but on my hardware in the worst case update-in-progress bit was asserted for at most 363 passes through loop (on 2GHz dual Opteron), much less than even one jiffie, not even talking about 20ms. So I changed code to just wait only as long as necessary. Otherwise when RTC was set to generate 8192Hz timer, it stopped doing anything for 20ms (160 pulses were skipped!) from time to time, and this is rather suboptimal as far as I can tell.

2005-08-04[PATCH] USB: ehci: microframe handling fixDavid Brownell
This patch has a one line oops fix, plus related cleanups. - The bugfix uses microframe scheduling data given to the hardware to test "is this a periodic QH", rather than testing for nonzero period. (Prevents an oops by providing the correct answer.) - The cleanup going along with the patch should make it clearer what's going on whenever those bitfields are accessed. The bug came about when, around January, two new kinds of EHCI interrupt scheduling operation were added, involving both the high speed (24 KBytes per millisec) and low/full speed (1-64 bytes per millisec) microframe scheduling. A driver for the Edirol UA-1000 Audio Capture Unit ran into the oops; it used one of the newly supported high speed modes.

2005-08-04[PATCH] pci and yenta: pcibios_bus_to_resourceDominik Brodowski
In yenta_socket, we default to using the resource setting of the CardBus bridge. However, this is a PCI-bus-centric view of resources and thus needs to be converted to generic resources first. Therefore, add a call to pcibios_bus_to_resource() call in between. This function is a mere wrapper on x86 and friends, however on some others it already exists, is added in this patch (alpha, arm, ppc, ppc64) or still needs to be provided (parisc -- where is its pcibios_resource_to_bus() ?).

2005-08-04[PATCH] PCI: restore BAR values after D3hot->D0 for devices that need itJohn W. Linville
Some PCI devices (e.g. 3c905B, 3c556B) lose all configuration (including BARs) when transitioning from D3hot->D0. This leaves such a device in an inaccessible state. The patch below causes the BARs to be restored when enabling such a device, so that its driver will be able to access it. The patch also adds pci_restore_bars as a new global symbol, and adds a correpsonding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for that. Some firmware (e.g. Thinkpad T21) leaves devices in D3hot after a (re)boot. Most drivers call pci_enable_device very early, so devices left in D3hot that lose configuration during the D3hot->D0 transition will be inaccessible to their drivers. Drivers could be modified to account for this, but it would be difficult to know which drivers need modification. This is especially true since often many devices are covered by the same driver. It likely would be necessary to replicate code across dozens of drivers. The patch below should trigger only when transitioning from D3hot->D0 (or at boot), and only for devices that have the "no soft reset" bit cleared in the PM control register. I believe it is safe to include this patch as part of the PCI infrastructure. The cleanest implementation of pci_restore_bars was to call pci_update_resource. Unfortunately, that does not currently exist for the sparc64 architecture. The patch below includes a null implemenation of pci_update_resource for sparc64. Some have expressed interest in making general use of the the pci_restore_bars function, so that has been exported to GPL licensed modules. Signed-off-by: John W.

2005-08-04[PATCH] md: yet another attempt to get bitmap-based resync to do the right ↵NeilBrown
thing in all cases... Firstly, R1BIO_Degraded was being set in a number of places in the resync code, but is never used there, so get rid of those settings. Then: When doing a resync, we want to clear the bit in the bitmap iff the array will be non-degraded when the sync has completed. However the current code would clear the bitmap if the array was non-degraded when the resync *started*, which obviously isn't right (it is for 'resync' but not for 'recovery' - i.e. rebuilding a failed drive). This patch calculated 'still_degraded' and uses the to tell bitmap_start_sync whether this sync should clear the corresponding bit.

2005-08-04[PATCH] md: always honour md bitmap being read from diskNeilBrown
The code currently will ignore the bitmap if the array seem to be in-sync. This is wrong if the array is degraded, and probably wrong anyway.

2005-08-04[SCSI] fix aic7xxx performance issues since 2.6.12-rc2James Bottomley
Several people noticed we dropped quite a bit on benchmark figures. OK, it was my fault but unfortunately I discovered I ran out of brown paper bags a while ago and forgot to reorder them. The issue is that a construct introduced in the conversion of the driver to use the transport class keyed off whether the block request was tagged or not. However, the aic7xxx driver doesn't properly set up the block layer TCQ (it uses the wrong API), so the driver now things all requests are untagged and we keep it to a queue depth of a single element. Oops. The fix is to use the correct TCQ API. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Patch from Ian Campbell On PXA255 there is no way to disable the watchdog. Turning off OIER[E3] as suggested in the existing comment does not work. I posted a note to the ARM mailing list a little while ago asking for opinions from people using SA1100. There was one reponse from Nico who believes that the SA1100 is the same as the PXA255 in this respect. You also asked me to involve the watchdog maintainer which I tried to do but didn't hear anything back. There are only a couple of other drivers which can't stop the watchdog and there seems to be no consistancy regarding printing an error etc. I decided to print something since that matches the case for all the other drivers when NOWAYOUT is turned on. Also, I changed the device .name to "watchdog" like most of the other watchdogs. udev uses it as the device name (by default) and spaces etc. get in the way.

2005-08-02pci: make bus resource start address override minimum IO addressLinus Torvalds
The reason we have PCIBIOS_MIN_IO and PCIBIOS_MIN_CARDBUS_IO is because we want to protect badly documented motherboard PCI resources and thus don't want to allocate new resources in low IO/MEM space. However, if we have already discovered a PCI bridge with a specified resource base, that should override that decision. This change will allow us to move the "careful" region upwards without resulting in problems allocating resources in low mappings. This was brought on by us having allocated a bus resource at 0x1000, conflicting with a undocumented VAIO Sony PI resources.

2005-08-02[PATCH] Obvious bugfix for yenta resource allocationPaul Mackerras
Recent changes (well, dating from 12 July) have broken cardbus on my powerbook: I get 3 messages saying "no resource of type xxx available, trying to continue", and if I plug in my wireless card, it complains that there are no resources allocated to the card. This all worked in 2.6.12. Looking at the code in yenta_socket.c, function yenta_allocate_res, it's obvious what is wrong: if we get to line 639 (i.e. there wasn't a usable preassigned resource), we will always flow through to line 668, which is the printk that I was seeing, even if a resource was successfully allocated. It looks to me as though there should be a return statement after the two config_writel's in each of the 3 branches of the if statements, so that the function returns after successfully setting up the resource. The patch below adds these return statements, and with this patch, cardbus works on my powerbook once again.
