Gar.. mm/mempolicy.c: In function 'get_nodes': mm/mempolicy.c:527: error: 'BITS_PER_BYTE' undeclared (first use in this function) mm/mempolicy.c:527: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once mm/mempolicy.c:527: error: for each function it appears in.) About to retry a build with the below patch which should do the trick. (How did this *ever* build?) Signed-off-by:

arch/ia64/kernel/unaligned.c erroneously marked die_if_kernel() with a "noreturn" attribute ... which is silly (it returns whenever the argument regs say that the fault happened in user mode, as one might expect given the "if_kernel" part of its name!). Thanks to Alan and Gareth for pointing this out. Signed-off-by:

In 295f7324 I moved defer_accept from tcp_sock to request_queue and mistakingly reset it at reqsl_queue_alloc, causing calls to setsockopt(TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT ) to be lost after bind, the fix is to remove the zeroing of rskq_defer_accept from reqsl_queue_alloc. Thanks to Alexandra N. Kossovsky <Alexandra.Kossovsky@oktetlabs.ru> for reporting and testing the suggested fix. Signed-off-by:

Fix a case where copying max_inline_data from a successful create_qp capabilities output to create_qp input could cause EINVAL error: mthca_set_qp_size must check max_inline_data directly against max_desc_sz; checking qp->sq.max_gs is wrong since max_inline_data depends on the qp type and does not involve max_sg.

sbp2: fix another deadlock after disconnection If there were commands enqueued but not completed before an SBP-2 unit was unplugged (or an attempt to reconnect failed), knodemgrd or any process which tried to remove the device would sleep uninterruptibly in blk_execute_rq(). Therefore make sure that all commands are completed when sbp2 retreats. Signed-off-by:

sd: fix memory corruption with broken mode page headers There's a problem in sd where we blindly believe the length of the headers and block descriptors. Some devices return insane values for these and cause our length to end up greater than the actual buffer size, so check to make sure. Signed-off-by:

netlink overrun was broken while improvement of netlink. Destination socket is used in the place where it was meant to be source socket, so that now overrun is never sent to user netlink sockets, when it should be, and it even can be set on kernel socket, which results in complete deadlock of rtnetlink. Suggested fix is to restore status quo passing source socket as additional argument to netlink_attachskb(). A little explanation: overrun is set on a socket, when it failed to receive some message and sender of this messages does not or even have no way to handle this error. This happens in two cases: 1. when kernel sends something. Kernel never retransmits and cannot wait for buffer space. 2. when user sends a broadcast and the message was not delivered to some recipients. Signed-off-by:

Only scan I2C address 0x2d. This is the default address and no IT87xxF chip was ever seen on I2C at a different address. These chips are better accessed through their ISA interface anyway. This fixes bug #5889, although it doesn't address the whole class of problems. We'd need the ability to blacklist arbitrary I2C addresses on systems known to contain I2C devices which behave badly when probed. Signed-off-by:

Fix a deadlock possible in the ext2 file system implementation. This deadlock occurs when a file is removed from an ext2 file system which was mounted with the "sync" mount option. The problem is that ext2_xattr_delete_inode() was invoking the routine, sync_dirty_buffer(), using a buffer head which was previously locked via lock_buffer(). The first thing that sync_dirty_buffer() does is to lock the buffer head that it was passed. It does this via lock_buffer(). Oops. The solution is to unlock the buffer head in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() before invoking sync_dirty_buffer(). This makes the code in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() obey the same locking rules as all other callers of sync_dirty_buffer() in the ext2 file system implementation. Signed-off-by:

If you set network interface down and up again, the IPv6 address autoconfiguration does not work. 'ip addr' shows that the link-local address is in tentative state. We don't even react to periodical router advertisements. During NETDEV_DOWN we clear IF_READY, and we don't set it back in NETDEV_UP. While starting to perform DAD on the link-local address, we notice that the device is not in IF_READY, and we abort autoconfiguration process (which would eventually send router solicitations).

Unfortunately, the reiserfs_attrs_cleared bit in the superblock flag can lie. File systems have been observed with the bit set, yet still contain garbage in the stat data field, causing unpredictable results. This patch backs out the enable-by-default behavior.

2.6.15's hugepage faulting introduced huge_pages_needed accounting into hugetlbfs: to count how many pages are already in cache, for spot check on how far a new mapping may be allowed to extend the file. But it's muddled: each hugepage found covers HPAGE_SIZE, not PAGE_SIZE. Once pages were already in cache, it would overshoot, wrap its hugepages count backwards, and so fail a harmless repeat mapping with -ENOMEM. Fixes the problem found by Don Dupuis. Signed-off-by:
