2009-04-24virtio-rng: Remove false BUG for spurious callbacksChristian Borntraeger1-2/+2
The virtio-rng drivers checks for spurious callbacks. Since callbacks can be implemented via shared interrupts (e.g. PCI) this could lead to guest kernel oopses with lots of virtio devices.

2009-04-21ipmi: fix statistics counting issuesCorey Minyard1-22/+51
Bela Lubkin noticed that the statistics for send IPMB and LAN commands in the IPMI driver could be incremented even if an error occurred. Move the increments to the proper place to avoid this. Also add some statistics for retransmissions that failed, and some little helper functions to neaten up the code a little.

2009-04-19Revert "console ASCII glyph 1:1 mapping"Samuel Thibault1-1/+1
This reverts commit 1c55f18717304100a5f624c923f7cb6511b4116d. Ingo Brueckl was assuming that reverting to 1:1 mapping for chars >= 128 was not useful, but it happens to be: due to the limitations of the Linux console, when a blind user wants to read BIG5 on it, he has no other way than loading a font without SFM and let the 1:1 mapping permit the screen reader to get the BIG5 encoding.

2009-04-02pids: kill signal_struct-> __pgrp/__session and friendsOleg Nesterov1-2/+2
We are wasting 2 words in signal_struct without any reason to implement task_pgrp_nr() and task_session_nr(). task_session_nr() has no callers since 2e2ba22ea4fd4bb85f0fa37c521066db6775cbef, we can remove it. task_pgrp_nr() is still (I believe wrongly) used in fs/autofsX and fs/coda. This patch reimplements task_pgrp_nr() via task_pgrp_nr_ns(), and kills __pgrp/__session and the related helpers. The change in drivers/char/tty_io.c is cosmetic, but hopefully makes sense anyway.

2009-04-01filesystem freeze: allow SysRq emergency thaw to thaw frozen filesystemsEric Sandeen1-1/+18
Now that the filesystem freeze operation has been elevated to the VFS, and is just an ioctl away, some sort of safety net for unintentionally frozen root filesystems may be in order. The timeout thaw originally proposed did not get merged, but perhaps something like this would be useful in emergencies. For example, freeze /path/to/mountpoint may freeze your root filesystem if you forgot that you had that unmounted. I chose 'j' as the last remaining character other than 'h' which is sort of reserved for help (because help is generated on any unknown character). I've tested this on a non-root fs with multiple (nested) freezers, as well as on a system rendered unresponsive due to a frozen root fs.

2009-03-31proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::ownerAlexey Dobriyan2-11/+7
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>

The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5: The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an obsolescent feature. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
