2006-12-22[TCP]: Fix ambiguity in the `before' relation.Gerrit Renker
While looking at DCCP sequence numbers, I stumbled over a problem with the following definition of before in tcp.h: static inline int before(__u32 seq1, __u32 seq2) { return (__s32)(seq1-seq2) < 0; } Problem: This definition suffers from an an ambiguity, i.e. always before(a, (a + 2^31) % 2^32)) = 1 before((a + 2^31) % 2^32), a) = 1 In text: when the difference between a and b amounts to 2^31, a is always considered `before' b, the function can not decide. The reason is that implicitly 0 is `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 ... 2^31 Solution: There is a simple fix, by defining before in such a way that 0 is no longer `before' 2^31, i.e. 0 `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 By not using the middle between 0 and 2^32, before can be made unambiguous. This is achieved by testing whether seq2-seq1 > 0 (using signed 32-bit arithmetic). I attach a patch to codify this. Also the `after' relation is basically a redefinition of `before', it is now defined as a macro after before. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-12-22[PATCH] fdtable: Provide free_fdtable() wrapperVadim Lobanov
Christoph Hellwig has expressed concerns that the recent fdtable changes expose the details of the RCU methodology used to release no-longer-used fdtable structures to the rest of the kernel. The trivial patch below addresses these concerns by introducing the appropriate free_fdtable() calls, which simply wrap the release RCU usage. Since free_fdtable() is a one-liner, it makes sense to promote it to an inline helper.

2006-12-22[PATCH] compile error of register_memory()Yasunori Goto
register_memory() becomes double definition in 2.6.20-rc1. It is defined in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c as static definition in 2.6.19. But it is moved to arch/i386/kernel/e820.c in 2.6.20-rc1. And same name function is defined in driver/base/memory.c too. So, it becomes cause of compile error of duplicate definition if memory hotplug option is on.

2006-12-21VM: Remove "clear_page_dirty()" and "test_clear_page_dirty()" functionsLinus Torvalds
They were horribly easy to mis-use because of their tempting naming, and they also did way more than any users of them generally wanted them to do. A dirty page can become clean under two circumstances: (a) when we write it out. We have "clear_page_dirty_for_io()" for this, and that function remains unchanged. In the "for IO" case it is not sufficient to just clear the dirty bit, you also have to mark the page as being under writeback etc. (b) when we actually remove a page due to it becoming inaccessible to users, notably because it was truncate()'d away or the file (or metadata) no longer exists, and we thus want to cancel any outstanding dirty state. For the (b) case, we now introduce "cancel_dirty_page()", which only touches the page state itself, and verifies that the page is not mapped (since cancelling writes on a mapped page would be actively wrong as it is still accessible to users). Some filesystems need to be fixed up for this: CIFS, FUSE, JFS, ReiserFS, XFS all use the old confusing functions, and will be fixed separately in subsequent commits (with some of them just removing the offending logic, and others using clear_page_dirty_for_io()). This was confirmed by Martin Michlmayr to fix the apt database corruption on ARM.

2006-12-20PCI legacy resource fixRalf Baechle
Since commit 368c73d4f689dae0807d0a2aa74c61fd2b9b075f the kernel will try to update the non-writeable BAR registers 0..3 of PIIX4 IDE adapters if pci_assign_unassigned_resources() is used to do full resource assignment of the bus. This fails because in the PIIX4 these BAR registers have implicitly assumed values and read back as zero; it used to work because the kernel used to just write zero to that register the read back value did match what was written. The fix is a new resource flag IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED used to mark a resource as non-movable. This will also be useful to keep other import system resources from being moved around - for example system consoles on PCI busses.

2006-12-20PCI: Fix multiple problems with VIA hardwareAlan Cox
This patch is designed to fix: - Disk eating corruptor on KT7 after resume from RAM - VIA IRQ handling - VIA fixups for bus lockups after resume from RAM The core of this is to add a table of resume fixups run at resume time. We need to do this for a variety of boards and features, but particularly we need to do this to get various critical VIA fixups done on resume. The second part of the problem is to handle VIA IRQ number rules which are a bit odd and need special handling for PIC interrupts. Various patches broke various boxes and while this one may not be perfect (hopefully it is) it ensures the workaround is applied to the right devices only. From: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Now that PCI quirks are replayed on software resume, we can safely re-enable the Asus SMBus unhiding quirk even when software suspend support is enabled.

2006-12-20PCI: Add pci_find_ht_capability() for finding Hypertransport capabilitiesMichael Ellerman
There are already several places in the kernel that want to search a PCI device for a given Hypertransport capability. Although this is possible using pci_find_capability() etc., it makes sense to encapsulate that logic in a helper - pci_find_ht_capability(). To cater for searching exhaustively for a capability, we also provide pci_find_next_ht_capability(). We also need to cater for the fact that the HT capability fields may be either 3 or 5 bits wide. pci_find_ht_capability() deals with this for you, but callers using the #defines directly must handle that themselves.

Make acpi_load_table() available for use by removing it from the #ifdef ACPI_FUTURE_USAGE. Also add a new routine used to unload an ACPI table of a given type and "id" - acpi_unload_table_id(). The implementation of this new routine was almost a direct copy of existing routine acpi_unload_table() - only difference being that it only removes a specific table id instead of ALL tables of a given type. The SN hotplug driver (sgi_hotplug.c) now uses both of these interfaces to dynamically load and unload SSDT ACPI tables. Also, a few other ACPI routines now used by the SN hotplug driver are exported (since the driver can be a loadable module): acpi_ns_map_handle_to_node acpi_ns_convert_entry_to_handle acpi_ns_get_next_node Signed-off-by: Aaron Young <ayoung@sgi.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Cc: "Luck, Tony" <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2006-12-19[PATCH] Fixup blk_rq_unmap_user() APIJens Axboe
The blk_rq_unmap_user() API is not very nice. It expects the caller to know that rq->bio has to be reset to the original bio, and it will silently do nothing if that is not done. Instead make it explicit that we need to pass in the first bio, by expecting a bio argument. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2006-12-19[PATCH] Remove queue merging hooksJens Axboe
We have full flexibility of merging parameters now, so we can remove the hooks that define back/front/request merge strategies. Nobody is using them anymore. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2006-12-17[AX.25]: Fix unchecked rose_add_loopback_neigh usesRalf Baechle
rose_add_loopback_neigh uses kmalloc and the callers were ignoring the error value. Rewrite to let the caller deal with the allocation. This allows the use of static allocation of kmalloc use entirely. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-12-17[AX.25]: Fix unchecked ax25_protocol_register uses.Ralf Baechle
Replace ax25_protocol_register by ax25_register_pid which assumes the caller has done the memory allocation. This allows replacing the kmalloc allocations entirely by static allocations. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-12-17[AX.25]: Mark all kmalloc users __must_checkRalf Baechle
The recent fix 0506d4068bad834aab1141b5dc5e748eb175c6b3 made obvious that error values were not being propagated through the AX.25 stack. To help with that this patch marks all kmalloc users in the AX.25, NETROM and ROSE stacks as __must_check. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
