This patch, from John Rose, is the counterpart of one recently forwarded by Greg KH. It has the same description, but isn't the same patch - this is the arch/ppc64 part of the change. As an unfortunate side effect of runtime addition/removal of PCI Host Bridges, the RPA DLPAR driver can no longer depend on the success of ioremap_explicit() (and therefore remap_page_range()) for the case of DLPAR adding an I/O Slot. Without addressing this, an attempt to add the first child slot of a newly added PHB will fail when __ioremap_explicit() determines the mappings for that range to already exist. For a little context, __ioremap_explicit() creates mappings for the range of a newly added slot. Here's why these calls will be expected to fail in some cases. Keep in mind that at boot-time, the PPC64 kernel calls ioremap() for the entire range spanned by each PHB. Consider the following scenarios of DLPAR-adding an I/O slot. 1) Just after boot, one removes an I/O slot. At this point the range associated with the parent PHB is fragmented, and the child range for the slot in question is iounmap()'ed. One then re-adds the slot, at which point remap_page_range()/ioremap_explicit() restores the mappings that were previously removed. 2) One adds a new PHB, at which point the ppc64-specific addition ioremaps the entire PHB range. One then performs a DLPAR-add of a child slot of that PHB. At this point, mappings already exist for the range of the slot to be added. So remap_page_range()/ioremap_explicit() will fail at this point. The problem is, there's not a good way to distinguish between cases 1 and 2 from the perspective of the DLPAR driver. Because of that, I believe the correct solution to be: - Removal of relevant error prints from iounmap_explicit(), which is only used for DLPAR. - Removal of error code checks from the RPA driver Here's the first of these.

ioremap() made inlined function on sparc64; that had caught one bogosity in drivers, actually - cpwatchdog.c passed sizeof(structure that was never declared) as the second argument to ioremap(). It went unnoticed since that argument was never used in the body of macro, so it disappeared without a trace...

Sigh, I broke it by accident 16 months ago and nobody has noticed (I suspect that it was non-functional even earlier). Additionally, this driver: * should be converted to use scatterlists * has verbose debugging enabled by default * needs hacks all over IDE code * is guilty of crimes against ide_hwifs[] Just remove it for now.

Based on input from Roland McGrath and Hugh Dickins. This simplifies the logic, and takes advantage of the "new" VM information in the form of vma->anon_vma.
-
Linus Torvalds authored
Rather than the deprecated remap_page_range() function that can't handle all of the PFN range anyway. Also, since that will now mark the vma as being special, there's no need to do it in mmap_mem() any more.

VM_IO tells the rest fo the world that the pages may have side effects on reads/writes etc, and VM_RESERVED historically told swap-out not to bother with it.

I reviewed, patched, and tested ppp_async.c to implement ldisc->hangup(). This correctly terminates the PPP connection on hangup. Paul Mackerras already did an excellent job of ensuring safe shutdown and I/O completion in ldisc->close so the change is trivial: just add the ldisc->hangup and call the existing close routine.

From: <Urban.Widmark@enlight.net> The memset is because it was previously possible to send always the same CIFS fragment and use this to increase the data counters. When the data counter "exceeds" the amount of bytes expected this will return the buffer only partially initialised... With findfirst etc requests this should allow leaking kernel memory content. The other thing is that the data is only returned when data_tot and parm_tot both "exceed" the expected values. Previously it was possible to create a sequence of CIFS fragments that allowed exceeding the counters. The calling functions then would believe they received a number of bytes that does not fit into the allocated buffer.

In ia32 emulation, the amd64 kernel refuses the ioctls TIOCSBRK and TIOCCBRK with EINVAL. I've attached a patch that adds them to the compatibility list. Since all architectures have these ioctls ("m68knommu" inherits them from "m68k", "um" from its host) and use the same code, I think adding them to compat_ioctl.h is the correct choice (as opposed to adding them to arch/x86_64/ia32/ia32_ioctl.c).

When the generic IRQ patch went in, it changed the behaviour of setup_irq (compared to the previous ppc64 version) in that we now don't call the handler's enable function if it has a startup function. The XICS interrupt controller has a startup function, and so we weren't getting any interrupts through the XICS because they never got enabled. This patch adds a call to xics_enable_irq to xics_startup and fixes the problem.
