2010-10-20virtio: console: Don't block entire guest if host doesn't read dataAmit Shah
If the host is slow in reading data or doesn't read data at all, blocking write calls not only blocked the program that called write() but the entire guest itself. To overcome this, let's not block till the host signals it has given back the virtio ring element we passed it. Instead, send the buffer to the host and return to userspace. This operation then becomes similar to how non-blocking writes work, so let's use the existing code for this path as well. This code change also ensures blocking write calls do get blocked if there's not enough room in the virtio ring as well as they don't return -EAGAIN to userspace.

2010-10-19MIPS: Repair Kbuild make clean breakage.David Daney
When running make clean, Kbuild doesn't process the .config file, so nothing generates a platform-y variable. We can get it to descend into the platform directories by setting $(obj-). The dec Platform file was unconditionally setting platform-, obliterating its previous contents and preventing some directories from being cleaned.

2010-10-18mxc_nand: do not depend on disabling the irq in the interrupt handlerSascha Hauer
This patch reverts the driver to enabling/disabling the NFC interrupt mask rather than enabling/disabling the system interrupt. This cleans up the driver so that it doesn't rely on interrupts being disabled within the interrupt handler. For i.MX21 we keep the current behaviour, that is calling enable_irq/disable_irq_nosync to enable/disable interrupts. This patch is based on earlier work by John Ogness.

2010-10-18i2c-imx: do not allow interruptions when waiting for I2C to completeMarc Kleine-Budde
The i2c_imx_trx_complete() function is using wait_event_interruptible_timeout() to wait for the I2C controller to signal that it has completed an I2C bus operation. If the process that causes the I2C operation receives a signal, the wait will be interrupted, returning an error. It is better to let the I2C operation finished before handling the signal (i.e. returning into userspace). It is safe to use wait_event_timeout() instead, because the timeout will allow the process to exit if the I2C bus hangs. It's also better to allow the I2C operation to finish, because unacknowledged I2C operations can cause the I2C bus to hang.

Revert commit 54672386ccf36ffa21d1de8e75624af83f9b0eeb "firewire: ohci: fix up configuration of TI chips". It caused massive slow-down and data corruption with a TSB82AA2 based StarTech EC1394B2 ExpressCard and FireWire 800 harddisks. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/657081 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.firewire.user/4013 The fact that some card EEPROMs do not program these enhancements may be related to TSB81BA3 phy chip errata, if not to bugs of TSB82AA2 itself.

When a driver module is unloaded and the last still open file is a raw MIDI device, the card and its devices will be actually freed in the snd_card_file_remove() call when that file is closed. Afterwards, rmidi and rmidi->card point into freed memory, so the module pointer is likely to be garbage. (This was introduced by commit 9a1b64caac82aa02cb74587ffc798e6f42c6170a.)

2010-10-15v4l1: fix 32-bit compat microcode loading translationLinus Torvalds
The compat code for the VIDIOCSMICROCODE ioctl is totally buggered. It's only used by the VIDEO_STRADIS driver, and that one is scheduled to staging and eventually removed unless somebody steps up to maintain it (at which point it should use request_firmware() rather than some magic ioctl). So we'll get rid of it eventually. But in the meantime, the compatibility ioctl code is broken, and this tries to get it to at least limp along (even if Mauro suggested just deleting it entirely, which may be the right thing to do - I don't think the compatibility translation code has ever worked unless you were very lucky).

Don't try to "optimize" rds_page_copy_user() by using kmap_atomic() and the unsafe atomic user mode accessor functions. It's actually slower than the straightforward code on any reasonable modern CPU. Back when the code was written (although probably not by the time it was actually merged, though), 32-bit x86 may have been the dominant architecture. And there kmap_atomic() can be a lot faster than kmap() (unless you have very good locality, in which case the virtual address caching by kmap() can overcome all the downsides). But these days, x86-64 may not be more populous, but it's getting there (and if you care about performance, it's definitely already there - you'd have upgraded your CPU's already in the last few years). And on x86-64, the non-kmap_atomic() version is faster, simply because the code is simpler and doesn't have the "re-try page fault" case. People with old hardware are not likely to care about RDS anyway, and the optimization for the 32-bit case is simply buggy, since it doesn't verify the user addresses properly.

Fix SDIO suspend/resume regression introduced by 4c2ef25fe0b "mmc: fix all hangs related to mmc/sd card insert/removal during suspend/resume": PM: Syncing filesystems ... done. Freezing user space processes ... (elapsed 0.01 seconds) done. Freezing remaining freezable tasks ... (elapsed 0.01 seconds) done. Suspending console(s) (use no_console_suspend to debug) pm_op(): platform_pm_suspend+0x0/0x5c returns -38 PM: Device pxa2xx-mci.0 failed to suspend: error -38 PM: Some devices failed to suspend 4c2ef25fe0b moved the card removal/insertion mechanism out of MMC's suspend/resume path and into pm notifiers (mmc_pm_notify), and that broke SDIO's expectation that mmc_suspend_host() will remove the card, and squash the error, in case -ENOSYS is returned from the bus suspend handler (mmc_sdio_suspend() in this case). mmc_sdio_suspend() is using this whenever at least one of the card's SDIO function drivers does not have suspend/resume handlers - in that case it is agreed to force removal of the entire card. This patch fixes this regression by trivially bringing back that part of mmc_suspend_host(), which was removed by 4c2ef25fe0b.

2010-10-15ubd: fix incorrect sector handling during request restartTejun Heo
Commit f81f2f7c (ubd: drop unnecessary rq->sector manipulation) dropped request->sector manipulation in preparation for global request handling cleanup; unfortunately, it incorrectly assumed that the updated sector wasn't being used. ubd tries to issue as many requests as possible to io_thread. When issuing fails due to memory pressure or other reasons, the device is put on the restart list and issuing stops. On IO completion, devices on the restart list are scanned and IO issuing is restarted. ubd issues IOs sg-by-sg and issuing can be stopped in the middle of a request, so each device on the restart queue needs to remember where to restart in its current request. ubd needs to keep track of the issue position itself because, * blk_rq_pos(req) is now updated by the block layer to keep track of _completion_ position. * Multiple io_req's for the current request may be in flight, so it's difficult to tell where blk_rq_pos(req) currently is. Add ubd->rq_pos to keep track of the issue position and use it to correctly restart io_req issue.
