2007-11-14CRISv32: add cache flush operationsJesper Nilsson2-0/+127
These are needed due to a cache bug, and can be used to make sure that the DMA descriptors are flushed to memory and can be safely handled by DMA. flush_dma_descr - Flush one DMA descriptor. flush_dma_list - Flush a complete list of DMA descriptors. cris_flush_cache - Flush the complete cache. cris_flush_cache_range - Flush only the specified range Signed-off-by: Jesper Nilsson <jesper.nilsson@axis.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-11-14CRISv10 improve and bugfix fasttimerJesper Nilsson2-207/+124
Improve and bugfix CRIS v10 fast timers. - irq_handler_t now only takes two arguments. - Keep interrupts disabled as long as we have a reference to the fasttimer list and only enable them while doing the callback. del_fast_timer may be called from other interrupt context. - Fix bug where debug code could return without calling local_irq_restore. - Use jiffies instead of usec (change from struct timeval to fasttime_t). - Don't initialize static variables to zero. - Remove obsolete #ifndef DECLARE_WAITQUEUE code. - fast_timer_init should be __initcall. - Change status/debug variables to unsigned. - Remove CVS log and CVS id.

2007-11-14CRISv10 serial driver rewriteJesper Nilsson2-859/+580
New and improved serial driver for CRISv10, take three, with improvements suggested by Jiri Slaby. - Call wait_event_interruptible with a _correct_ and sensible condition. - Removed superfluous test of info->flags & ASYNC_CLOSING, since that is done by wait_event_interruptible. - Moved common code for deregistering DMA and IRQ to deinit_port function. - Use setup_timer when initializing flush_timer. - Convert bit-field for uses_dma_in and uses_dma_out to regular bytes. - Removed CVS tags. - Removed defines and comments for CRIS_BUF_SIZE and TTY_THRESHOLD_THROTTLE (no longer used). - Cleaned up code to pass checkpatch. - Add crisv10.h header file. - Merge of CRISv10 from Axis internal CVS.

New (updated) version of ethernet driver for cris v10. - First steps to simplify and make the MII code more similar between the etrax100 and etraxfs ports. - Start the transmit queue before enabling tx interrupts to avoid race with the first frame. - Flip the comparition statement to stick to physical addresses to avoid phys_to_virt mapping a potential null pointer. This was not an error but the change simplifies debugging of address-space mappings. - Made myPrevRxDesc local to e100_rx since it was only used there. Fixed out of memory handling in e100_rx. If dev_alloc_skb() fails persistently the system is hosed anyway but at least it won't loop in an interrupt handler. - Correct some code formatting issues. - Add defines SET_ETH_ENABLE_LEDS, SET_ETH_DISABLE_LEDS and SET_ETH_AUTONEG used in new cris v10 ethernet driver.

2007-11-14x86: don't call mce_create_device on CPU_UP_PREPAREAndreas Herrmann1-7/+11
Fix regression introduced with d435d862baca3e25e5eec236762a43251b1e7ffc ("cpu hotplug: mce: fix cpu hotplug error handling"). A CPU which was not brought up during boot (using maxcpus and additional_cpus parameters) couldn't be onlined anymore. For such a CPU it seemed that MCE was not supported during CPU_UP_PREPARE-time which caused mce_cpu_callback to return NOTIFY_BAD to notifier_call_chain. To fix this we: - call mce_create_device for CPU_ONLINE event (instead of CPU_UP_PREPARE), - avoid mce_remove_device() for the CPU that is not correctly initialized by mce_create_device() failure, - make mce_cpu_callback always return NOTIFY_OK for CPU_ONLINE event. Because CPU_ONLINE callback return value is always ignored.

2007-11-14hibernate: fix lockdep reportJohannes Berg1-1/+11
Lockdep reports a circular locking dependency in the hibernate code because - during system boot hibernate code (from an initcall) locks pm_mutex and then a sysfs buffer mutex via name_to_dev_t - during regular operation hibernate code locks pm_mutex under a sysfs buffer mutex because it's called from sysfs methods. The deadlock can never happen because during initcall invocation nothing can write to sysfs yet. This removes the lockdep report by marking the initcall locking as being in a different class.

2007-11-14__do_IRQ does not check IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is setRuss Anderson1-3/+5
In __do_IRQ(), the normal case is that IRQ_DISABLED is checked and if set the handler (handle_IRQ_event()) is not called. Earlier in __do_IRQ(), if IRQ_PER_CPU is set the code does not check IRQ_DISABLED and calls the handler even though IRQ_DISABLED is set. This behavior seems unintentional. One user encountering this behavior is the CPE handler (in arch/ia64/kernel/mca.c). When the CPE handler encounters too many CPEs (such as a solid single bit error), it sets up a polling timer and disables the CPE interrupt (to avoid excessive overhead logging the stream of single bit errors). disable_irq_nosync() is called which sets IRQ_DISABLED. The IRQ_PER_CPU flag was previously set (in ia64_mca_late_init()). The net result is the CPE handler gets called even though it is marked disabled. If the behavior of not checking IRQ_DISABLED when IRQ_PER_CPU is set is intentional, it would be worthy of a comment describing the intended behavior. disable_irq_nosync() does call chip->disable() to provide a chipset specifiec interface for disabling the interrupt, which avoids this issue when used.

2007-11-14pidns: Place under CONFIG_EXPERIMENTALEric W. Biederman3-0/+37
This is my trivial patch to swat innumerable little bugs with a single blow. After some intensive review (my apologies for not having gotten to this sooner) what we have looks like a good base to build on with the current pid namespace code but it is not complete, and it is still much to simple to find issues where the kernel does the wrong thing outside of the initial pid namespace. Until the dust settles and we are certain we have the ABI and the implementation is as correct as humanly possible let's keep process ID namespaces behind CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL. Allowing us the option of fixing any ABI or other bugs we find as long as they are minor.

2007-11-14mark sys_open/sys_read exports unusedArjan van de Ven2-2/+2
sys_open / sys_read were used in the early 1.2 days to load firmware from disk inside drivers. Since 2.0 or so this was deprecated behavior, but several drivers still were using this. Since a few years we have a request_firmware() API that implements this in a nice, consistent way. Only some old ISA sound drivers (pre-ALSA) still straggled along for some time.... however with commit c2b1239a9f22f19c53543b460b24507d0e21ea0c the last user is now gone. This is a good thing, since using sys_open / sys_read etc for firmware is a very buggy to dangerous thing to do; these operations put an fd in the process file descriptor table.... which then can be tampered with from other threads for example. For those who don't want the firmware loader, filp_open()/vfs_read are the better APIs to use, without this security issue. The patch below marks sys_open and sys_read unused now that they're really not used anymore, and for deletion in the 2.6.25 timeframe.

2007-11-14fix param_sysfs_builtin name length checkJan Kiszka1-9/+6
Commit faf8c714f4508207a9c81cc94dafc76ed6680b44 caused a regression: parameter names longer than MAX_KBUILD_MODNAME will now be rejected, although we just need to keep the module name part that short. This patch restores the old behaviour while still avoiding that memchr is called with its length parameter larger than the total string length.

2007-11-14proc: simplify and correct proc_flush_taskEric W. Biederman1-9/+6
Currently we special case when we have only the initial pid namespace. Unfortunately in doing so the copied case for the other namespaces was broken so we don't properly flush the thread directories :( So this patch removes the unnecessary special case (removing a usage of proc_mnt) and corrects the flushing of the thread directories.

2007-11-14rd: fix data corruption on memory pressureChristian Borntraeger1-0/+13
We have seen ramdisk based install systems, where some pages of mapped libraries and programs were suddendly zeroed under memory pressure. This should not happen, as the ramdisk avoids freeing its pages by keeping them dirty all the time. It turns out that there is a case, where the VM makes a ramdisk page clean, without telling the ramdisk driver. On memory pressure shrink_zone runs and it starts to run shrink_active_list. There is a check for buffer_heads_over_limit, and if true, pagevec_strip is called. pagevec_strip calls try_to_release_page. If the mapping has no releasepage callback, try_to_free_buffers is called. try_to_free_buffers has now a special logic for some file systems to make a dirty page clean, if all buffers are clean. Thats what happened in our test case. The simplest solution is to provide a noop-releasepage callback for the ramdisk driver. This avoids try_to_free_buffers for ramdisk pages.
