The attached patch seems to already exist in a number of branches -- it keeps popping up on Google for me, and is certainly already in Debian -- but is strangely absent from mainstream. The problem appears to be that the patched file ends up as part of the target toolchain, but unfortunately the gcc constant folding doesn't appear to eliminate the __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC value early enough. Certainly compiling C++ programs which use _IO... macros as constants fails without this patch.

Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code instead of bad examples. Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir. Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol. Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system. However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need to be installed (for userspace builds). Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32, sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

Short enough reads from /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity return -EINVAL for no good reason. This became noticed with NR_CPUS=4096 patches, when length of printed representation of cpumask becase 1152, but cat(1) continued to read with 1024-byte chunks. bitmap_scnprintf() in good faith fills buffer, returns 1023, check returns -EINVAL. Fix it by switching to seq_file, so handler will just fill buffer and doesn't care about offsets, length, filling EOF and all this crap. For that add seq_bitmap(), and wrappers around it -- seq_cpumask() and seq_nodemask().

Some chips appear to have the 2D engine hang during screen redraw, typically in a sequence of copyarea operations. This appear to be solved by adding a flush of the engine destination pixel cache and waiting for the engine to be idle before issuing the accel operation. The performance impact seems to be fairly small. Here is a trace on an RV370 (PCI device ID 0x5b64), it records the RBBM_STATUS register, then the source x/y, destination x/y, and width/height used for the copy: ---------------------------------------- radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[00000140] src[210:70] dst[210:60] wh[a0:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[00000140] src[2b8:70] dst[2b8:60] wh[88:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[00000140] src[348:70] dst[348:60] wh[40:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80020140] src[390:70] dst[390:60] wh[88:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[8002613f] src[40:80] dst[40:70] wh[28:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026139] src[a8:80] dst[a8:70] wh[38:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026133] src[e8:80] dst[e8:70] wh[80:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[8002612d] src[170:80] dst[170:70] wh[30:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026127] src[1a8:80] dst[1a8:70] wh[8:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[80026121] src[1b8:80] dst[1b8:70] wh[88:10] radeonfb_prim_copyarea: STATUS[8002611b] src[248:80] dst[248:70] wh[68:10] ---------------------------------------- When things are going fine the copies complete before the next ROP is even issued, but all of a sudden the 2D unit becomes active (bit 17 in RBBM_STATUS) and the FIFO retry (bit 13) and FIFO pipeline busy (bit 14) are set as well. The FIFO begins to backup until it becomes full. What happens next is the radeon_fifo_wait() times out, and we access the chip illegally leading to a bus error which usually wedges the box. None of this makes it to the console screen, of course :-) radeon_fifo_wait() should be modified to reset the accelerator when this timeout happens instead of programming the chip anyways. ---------------------------------------- radeonfb: FIFO Timeout !

This will only happen if you 1) VC switch or 2) run "consolechars" or 3) unblank the screen. This seems to happen because until a redraw_screen() the screen scrolling method used by fbcon is not finalized yet. I've seen this with other fb drivers too. So if all you do is boot straight into X you will never see this bug on the relevant chips. Signed-off-by: David S.

In the normal case, hugetlbfs reserves hugepages at map time so that the pages exist for future faults. A struct file_region is used to track when reservations have been consumed and where. These file_regions are allocated as necessary with kmalloc() which can sleep with the mm->page_table_lock held. This is wrong and triggers may-sleep warning when PREEMPT is enabled. Updates to the underlying file_region are done in two phases. The first phase prepares the region for the change, allocating any necessary memory, without actually making the change. The second phase actually commits the change. This patch makes use of this by checking the reservations before the page_table_lock is taken; triggering any necessary allocations. This may then be safely repeated within the locks without any allocations being required. Credit to Mel Gorman for diagnosing this failure and initial versions of the patch.

These attributes are really sysdev class attributes. The incorrect definition leads to an oops because of recent changes which make sysdev attributes use a different prototype.
