From: Colin Leroy <colin@colino.net> rmmod'ing pmac_zilog currently oopses because uart_unregister_driver(), which nullifies drv->tty_driver, is called before uart_remove_one_port(), which uses said drv->tty_driver. The comment at top of uart_unregister_driver() specifically says we have to have removed all our ports via uart_remove_one_port() before.

From: Frank A. Uepping This fixes capiminor_alloc() to assign the lowest free minor for a new capi_tty. Thanks to Frank A. Uepping and Tim Woods.

The syscall return path on ppc64 checks if the error is between -LAST_ERRNO and 0, if it is, does the usual inversion along with setting a CR bit indicating to glibc that an error occured. However, we had an interesting bug where we used a 32 bits logica (unsigned) comparison, thus possibly doing false positives for valid 64 bits unsigned values whose low 32 bits happen to be in the error range. Fix that.

Just as there is documentation for BINFMT_MISC and Java bytecodes support, I thought it could be interesting to add documentation on how to add BINFMT_MISC support for directly running .NET ".exe" binaries using the Mono CLR.

This patch fixes more cases of possible preempt issue when testing MSR for FP or VEC bits and then doing giveup_fpu or giveup_altivec that I missed in my previous round of fixes (bk get helps before grepping ;) I also change the single step and program check exceptions to not re-enable interrupts right away on C code entry, it was useless and would cause interesting issues with preempt & xmon

A few asm/types.h test a config variable without including <linux/config.h> first, which can e.g. cause different sector_t definitions. HFS fell victim to that and broke on ppc with CONFIG_LBD enabled. I scanned all asm/types.h and added <linux/config.h> as necessary.

- make sure cd->buffer is always inside a page - previously if an entry fit perfectly in the remainder of a page, cd->buffer would end up pointing past the end of that page. - make sure num_entry_words is always correct, even on the error path.

This increases the DART table to use the full size. We allocate a full 16MB page anyway, so there's no difference in memory consumption. Thanks to Ben for spotting this, it was left over from debugging...

This fixes a bug in the iommu allocator that causes it to behave strangely when a fair size of the table is allocated. Thanks to Andrew Gallatin for finding this.

This patch from Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> fixes a bug in the current USB code that causes khubd to hang when a device is removed from the system, thereby preventing any future USB device changes (like adding or removing other devices) from happening. Both Andrew and I can easily duplicate this bug against the current -bk tree. It's not a perfect fix, but it works for now, and I will spend the next week working on restructuring the code so this is handled properly.

smp_processor_id is to be used when current_thread_info()->cpu is valid; i.e. almost always. Early on or when setting that field, hard_smp_processor_id is used. Clarify the distinction and only export to modules what's really needed. smp_processor_id is not model-specific, so we no longer need btfixups for it.

Since smp_stop_cpu is not used, we don't need to test for it. This saves several instructions in the IPI handler and simplifies the code.

There are no longer any callers of GET_PROCESSOR_MID and GET_PROCESSOR_ID, so both are removed.

filldir and getdents should check return values of put_user etc. The generic code has been fixed but the ppc64 compat versions have not.

Recent tools are disregarding both the __asm__(".text") in init_task.c and the alignment at the end of .text in head.S. Use attributes instead.

This replaces six duplicated implementations of various quality of sys32_mount with a shiny new compat_sys_mount(). It's been tested on parisc64 and sparc64 and fixes a bug exposed by the latest revision of Debian's initscripts. Thanks to Arnd Bergmann and Dave Miller for their suggestions, fixes and testing. Please apply.

From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Remove include of <asm/setup.h> from cmdlinepart.c. This is not be needed for i386 (it builds fine with this patch), and ia64 doesn't supply a setup.h. asm/setup.h contains a hodge-podge of stuff with no real consistency between architectures. It appears to be included mainly by arch-specific drivers: acsi (Atari disks) amiflop (Amiga floppy) z2ram (ZorroII ram disk) amiserial (Amiga serial) ... and under arch-specific #ifdefs: fbcon (under __mc68000__ or CONFIG_APUS) fonts (ditto) logo (CONFIG_M68K) ...

From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> The problem is that we don't clear out the efi_time_t buffer before asking EFI to fill it in. EFI doesn't always write the entire buffer (in particular, the alarm time only supports one second resolution, so the nanosecond field is often untouched). The effect is that 'cat /proc/driver/efirtc' shows garbage in the nanoseconds part of the alarm time, and sometimes artifacts like bogus alarm date and junk after the actual end of the text.

From: James Morris <jmorris@redhat.com> This patch fixes a bug where the return value for a permission call is not checked. The bug was introduced when I added some code in the following changeset: <http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/diffs/security/selinux/hooks.c@1.19?nav=index.html|src/|src/security|src/security/selinux|hist/security/selinux/hooks.c> Code was added after this line: err = avc_has_perm(isec->sid, node_sid, SECCLASS_NODE, node_perm, NULL, &ad); without adding an explicit check of 'err', which was previously returned from the function rather than being checked. i.e. it would drop through to: out: return err; } With the new code added, err can (and typically would) be overwritten with a successful value, causing the permission check to not deny permission if needed. The intended denial would have been logged. The patch below fixes this problem.

From: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> This patch ensures that cpu_khz is adjusted on cpufreq notifications even when the tsc timesource is not in use. It fixes the mostly cosmetic issue when using the ACPI PM timesource of /proc/cpuinfo not being properly updated when cpu frequency was lowered.

Andrew Morton authored
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> The purpose of this is to speed up system calls on s390. I managed to squeeze about 65 cycles from each system call. This improved e.g. getpid() from 232 to 157 cycles. As a nice side-effect it simplified the uaccess functions considerably.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> s390 network driver changes: - ctc/lcs/qeth: prevent a ccw-device to be grouped multiple times. - icuv: clear correct field in iucv_register_program if no userid is specified. - lcs: fix online/offline cycle again. - lcs: fix ungrouping of lcs group device. The channels of the lcs card should be offline afterwards. - lcs: don't do netif_stop_queue if no tx buffer is available, just return -EBUSY and drop the packets.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> dasd device driver changes: - After a state change interrupt restart all running i/o on queue and reset device timer. - Improve some debug messages. - Lower timeout of reserve/release/steal_lock to 2 seconds. - Fix BIODASDPSRD ioctl. - Replace ro_flag, use_diag_flag and disconnect_error_flag words by bits. - Use BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION ioctl instead of a call to delete_partition because delete_partition is not an exported function. Since dasd_destroy_partitions can't do blkdev_get because dasd_open would fail, keep the block device open as long as partitions exist. This in turn requires a different approach to the open vs. offline race.
