switch_uid() doesn't care about tasklist_lock, so do it outside the lock and avoid a subtle (and very very unlikely to trigger) AB-BA deadlock. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This fixes a build failure with gcc-3.4.1, where we use some functions before we define them inline. The simple way to fix those is to simply un-inline the functions in question. Since they are somewhat large that's what I did. An alternative would be to rework the ordering of the file so the functions are defined before their first use.

Remove ATA_FLAG_SATA_RESET. See comment in code and http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3352 for more details. This problem needs more investigation. Removing the flag appears to fix the problems in the field, so it's the best temporary solution.

Moxa have released several driver updates now including support up to 2.6.8 but don't themselves feel its worth the effort of doing a cleaned up merge for the base kernel. So I pulled their latest driver release (1.8) and removed all the macro gunge that makes it build on 2.2.0->2.6.8. I then fixed it to run on 2.6.9/10 and fixed a bug in the break handling. It still doesn't do PCI hotplug but I don't have any PCI moxa cards to really tackle that particular case. I've also merged Adriank Bunk's two 'could be static' changes into this diff set.

Fix suggested by Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> On architectures like PPC, char is handled as "unsigned char", thus the pcm_format_data table entries with -1 give a positive 255. This results in Oops with OSS-emulation on such architectures. The patch simply adds the right signed/unsigned prefix to fix this problem.

This patch reverts the additions of an ABI supporting thread and process CPU clocks in the posix-timers code. This returns us to 2.6.9's condition, there is no support for any new clockid_t values for process CPU clocks. This also fixes the return value for clock_nanosleep when unsupported (I think this is used only by sgi-timer at the moment). The POSIX-specified code for valid clocks that don't support the sleep operation is ENOTSUP. On most architectures the kernel doesn't define ENOTSUP and this name is defined in userland the same as the kernel's EOPNOTSUPP.

Fix a pretty bad bug that caused sometimes signals on x86-64 to be restarted like system calls. This corrupted the RIP and in general caused undesirable effects. The problem happens because orig_rax is unsigned on x86-64, but it originally was signed when the signal code was written. And the if (orig_rax >= 0) ended up always true. And gcc didn't warn about this, because the warning is only in -Wextra. In 2.4 we still had a cast for it, but somehow it got dropped in 2.5. Credit goes to John Slice for tracking it down and Erich Boleyn for the original fix. All blame to me. I fixed it at another place too.

This should go in before 2.6.10. It fixes a forgotten case to provide police backward compatibility statistics for old iproute2 versions running on a new kernel with actions enabled. Should make distributions happy with older iproute2 versions and all-included kernel configs since they probably favour actions over plain policer. Testing results: iproute2-2.4.7 on 2.6.10-rc3-bk8: cls-police: police creation succeeded cls-police: Sending 10 ICMP echo requests cls-police: police dumping succeeded with output: filter protocol ip pref 10 u32 filter protocol ip pref 10 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1 filter protocol ip pref 10 u32 fh 800::800 order 2048 key ht 800 bkt 0 flowid 10:12 police 3 action drop rate 2Kbit burst 10Kb mtu 2Kb match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8 Sent 420 bytes 10 pkts (dropped 0, overlimits 0) <-- This would have been missing cls-police: police deletion succeeded iproute2-2.6.9 on 2.6.10-rc3-bk8: ... filter protocol ip pref 10 u32 filter protocol ip pref 10 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1 filter protocol ip pref 10 u32 fh 800::800 order 2048 key ht 800 bkt 0 flowid 10:12 (rule hit 10 success 10) match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8 (success 10 ) police 0x4 rate 2000bit burst 10Kb mtu 2Kb action drop ref 1 bind 1 Sent 420 bytes 10 pkts (dropped 0, overlimits 0) ...

tcindex's destroy uses its own delete functions to destroy its configuration. The delete function (correctly) takes the qdisc_tree_lock to prevent list walkings from happening while removing from the list. The qdisc_tree_lock is already held if we're comming via the destroy path and thus a double locking takes place. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

cdrom_read_toc (ide-cd.c) always reads the TOC using MSF format. If the last session of the disk starts beyond block 1152000 (LBA) there's an overflow in the MSF format and kernel complains: Unable to identify CD-ROM format. I reported this bug a while ago (see bug #1930 on bugzilla) and Andy Polyakov tracked it down. Read the multi-session TOC in LBA format in order to avoid an overflow in MSF format when the last session starts beyond block 1152000 (LBA).

Don't allow user space mappings in the first page even if we are using high vectors - this may prevent BUG() from working, as well as allowing kernel NULL pointer derefs to be silently ignored.

Russell King authored
Rather than working out where the vector page is mapped, always map the vector page at the high vectors location, and conditionally handle the coherency issues with the low vector mapping if present.

This is the third of 3 patches from David Woodhouse which fix various problems with signal handling on ppc64. At present, if a signal is being delivered, and the process has specified delivery of that signal on an alternate stack but the alternate stack that has been specified is invalid (i.e. the kernel gets a fault writing to the alternate stack), then we (correctly) give the process a SIGSEGV but we put the wrong signal mask in the saved state on the stack - i.e. we put the mask that would have been established for the original signal handler there. This patch fixes it by making setup_rt_frame, handle_rt_signal32 and handle_signal32 return a status code to indicate whether they successfully established a stack frame. If they fail, the caller doesn't block the signals specified for the signal handler.

This is the second of 3 patches from David Woodhouse which fix various problems with signal handling on ppc64. The problem that this patch fixes is that a process being single-stepped will execute one instruction too many in certain cases: when a signal is delivered, when a signal handler returns, and when a system call instruction is single-stepped. This patch fixes it by checking if the process is being single-stepped in the syscall exit path and on signal delivery, and stopping it if so. To avoid slowing down the syscall exit path in the normal case, we use a bit in the thread_info flags, which can be tested along with the other bits we already test in the syscall exit path.
