When submitting requests via SG_IO, which does a sync io, a bsg_command is not allocated. So an in-Kernel sense_buffer was not set. However when calling blk_execute_rq() with no sense buffer one is provided from the stack. Now bsg at blk_complete_sgv4_hdr_rq() would check if rq->sense_len and a sense was requested by sg_io_v4 the rq->sense was copy_user() back, but by now it is already mangled stack memory. I have fixed that by forcing a sense_buffer when calling bsg_map_hdr(). The bsg_command->sense is provided in the write/read path like before, and on-the-stack buffer is provided when doing SG_IO. I have also fixed a dprintk message to print rq->errors in hex because of the scsi bit-field use of this member. For other block devices it does not matter anyway.

If a USB PCI controller is behind a cardbus bridge, we are trying to restore its configuration registers too early, before the cardbus bridge is operational. To fix this, call pci_restore_state() from usb_hcd_pci_resume() and remove usb_hcd_pci_resume_early() which is no longer necessary (the configuration spaces of USB controllers that are not behind cardbus bridges will be restored by the PCI PM core with interrupts disabled anyway). This patch fixes the regression from 2.6.28 tracked as http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12659 [ Side note: the proper long-term fix is probably to just force the unplug event at suspend time instead of doing a plug/unplug at resume time, but this patch is fine regardless - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

This is the cause of the DMA faults and disk corruption that people have been seeing. Some chipsets neglect to report the RWBF "capability" -- the flag which says that we need to flush the chipset write-buffer when changing the DMA page tables, to ensure that the change is visible to the IOMMU. Override that bit on the affected chipsets, and everything is happy again. Thanks to Chris and Bhavesh and others for helping to debug.

Getting this wrong caused WARNING: at fs/namespace.c:636 mntput_no_expire+0xac/0xf2() due to optimistically checking cpu_writer->mnt outside the spinlock. Here's what we really want: * we know that nobody will set cpu_writer->mnt to mnt from now on * all changes to that sucker are done under cpu_writer->lock * we want the laziest equivalent of spin_lock(&cpu_writer->lock); if (likely(cpu_writer->mnt != mnt)) { spin_unlock(&cpu_writer->lock); continue; } /* do stuff */ that would make sure we won't miss earlier setting of ->mnt done by another CPU. Anyway, for now we just move the spin_lock() earlier and move the test into the properly locked region.

If the F71882FG chip is at address 0x4e, then the probe at 0x2e will fail with the following message in the logs: f71882fg: Not a Fintek device This is misleading because there is a Fintek device, just at a different address.

The video_ioctl2 conversion of ivtv in kernel 2.6.27 introduced a bug causing decoder commands to crash. The decoder commands should have been handled from the video_ioctl2 default handler, ensuring correct mapping of the argument between user and kernel space. Unfortunately they ended up before the video_ioctl2 call, causing random crashes. Thanks to hannes@linus.priv.at for testing and helping me track down the cause!

If a device using the gspca framework is unplugged while it is still streaming then the call that is used to free the URBs that have been allocated occurs after the pointer it uses becomes invalid at the end of gspca_disconnect. Make another cleanup call in gspca_disconnect while the pointer is still valid (multiple calls are OK as destroy_urbs checks for pointers already being NULL.

In this case, interrupts are disabled for a long time. Functions, like dvb_dmx_swfilter_packets(), could be called only from a tasklet. This change set does hide some strong design bugs in dm1105.c and au0828-dvb.c. Please revert this change set and do fix the bugs in dm1105.c and au0828-dvb.c (and other files).

As reported by David Engel <david@istwok.net>, ATSC115 doesn't work fine with mythtv. This software opens both analog and dvb interfaces of saa7134. What happens is that some tuner commands are going to the wrong place, as shown at the logs: Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: using tuner params #0 (ntsc) Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: freq = 67.25 (1076), range = 0, config = 0xce, cb = 0x01 Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: Freq= 67.25 MHz, V_IF=45.75 MHz, Offset=0.00 MHz, div=1808 Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner 1-0061: tv freq set to 67.25 Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: using tuner params #0 (ntsc) Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: freq = 67.25 (1076), range = 0, config = 0xce, cb = 0x01 Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: Freq= 67.25 MHz, V_IF=45.75 MHz, Offset=0.00 MHz, div=1808 Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-000a: tv 0x07 0x10 0xce 0x01 Feb 12 20:37:48 opus kernel: tuner-simple 1-0061: tv 0x07 0x10 0xce 0x01 This happens due to a hack at TUV1236D analog setup, where it replaces tuner address, at 0x61 for 0x0a, in order to save a few memory bytes. The code assumes that nobody else would try to access the tuner during that setup, but the point is that there's no lock to protect such access. So, this opens the possibility of race conditions to happen. Instead of hacking tuner address, this patch uses a temporary var with the proper tuner value to be used during the setup. This should save the issue, although we should consider to write some analog/digital lock at saa7134 driver. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
