Pavel Emelyanov reported that his networking card did not work and bisected it down to: " The commit 093af8d7f0ba3c6be1485973508584ef081e9f93 x86_32: trim memory by updating e820 broke my e1000 card: on loading driver says that e1000: probe of 0000:04:03.0 failed with error -5 and the interface doesn't appear.

2008-02-06x86: fix iret exception recovery on 64-bitRoland McGrath
This change broke recovery of exceptions in iret: commit 72fe4858544292ad64600765cb78bc02298c6b1c Author: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> x86: replace privileged instructions with paravirt macros The ENTRY(native_iret) macro adds alignment padding before the iretq instruction, so "iret_label" no longer points exactly at the instruction. It was sloppy to leave the old "iret_label" label behind when replacing its nearby use. Removing it would have revealed the other use of the label later in the file, and upon noticing that use, anyone exercising the minimum of attention to detail expected of anyone touching this subtle code would realize it needed to change as well.

2008-02-06x86 ptrace: disallow null cs/ssRoland McGrath
In my revamp of the x86 ptrace code for setting register values, I accidentally omitted a check that was there in the old code. Allowing %cs to be 0 causes a bad crash in recovery from iret failure.

2008-02-06x86: make spurious fault handler aware of large mappingsThomas Gleixner
In very rare cases, on certain CPUs, we could end up in the spurious fault handler and ignore a large pud/pmd mapping.

2008-02-06atmel_lcdfb: backlight controlDavid Brownell
On the sam9 EK boards, the LCD backlight is hooked up to a PWM output from the LCD controller. It's controlled by "contrast" registers though. This patch lets boards declare that they have that kind of backlight control. The driver can then export this control, letting screenblank and other operations actually take effect ... reducing the typically substantial power drain from the backlight. Note that it's not fully cooked - doesn't force backlight off during system suspend - the "power" and "blank" events may not be done right This should be easily added in the future.

2008-02-06get rid of NR_OPEN and introduce a sysctl_nr_openEric Dumazet
NR_OPEN (historically set to 1024*1024) actually forbids processes to open more than 1024*1024 handles. Unfortunatly some production servers hit the not so 'ridiculously high value' of 1024*1024 file descriptors per process. Changing NR_OPEN is not considered safe because of vmalloc space potential exhaust. This patch introduces a new sysctl (/proc/sys/fs/nr_open) wich defaults to 1024*1024, so that admins can decide to change this limit if their workload needs it.

2008-02-06remove support for un-needed _extratext sectionRobin Getz
When passing a zero address to kallsyms_lookup(), the kernel thought it was a valid kernel address, even if it is not. This is because is_ksym_addr() called is_kernel_extratext() and checked against labels that don't exist on many archs (which default as zero). Since PPC was the only kernel which defines _extra_text, (in 2005), and no longer needs it, this patch removes _extra_text support.

This moves the ability to scale cputime into generic code. This allows us to fix the issue in kernel/timer.c (noticed by Balbir) where we could only add an unscaled value to the scaled utime/stime. This adds a cputime_to_scaled function. As before, the POWERPC version does the scaling based on the last SPURR/PURR ratio calculated. The generic and s390 (only other arch to implement asm/cputime.h) versions are both NOPs. Also moves the SPURR and PURR snapshots closer.

2008-02-05uml: redo the calculation of NR_syscallsJeff Dike
Redo the calculation of NR_syscalls since that disappeared from i386 and use a similar mechanism on x86_64. We now figure out the size of the system call table in arch code and stick that in syscall_table_size. arch/um/kernel/skas/syscall.c defines NR_syscalls in terms of that since its the only thing that needs to know how many system calls there are. The old mechananism that was used on x86_64 is gone. arch/um/include/sysdep-i386/syscalls.h got some formatting since I was looking at it.

2008-02-05uml: use of a public MAC is a warning, not an errorJeff Dike
Downgrade one of the MAC validity checks. If it's one that could be possibly assigned to a physical NIC, then nothing will break. So, emit a warning in this case, but keep the requested MAC.

2008-02-05uml: fix infinite mconsole loopKarol Swietlicki
This patch takes care of a problem with the stopping code. The function inside the while condition returns 0 to signify a problem. A problem could be for example a bad command or a bad version of the mconsole client. A bad command would terminate the stopping loop and resume the kernel. This is a problem. A better solution is to make the loop infinite and don't leave it until we are explicitly told to.
