The patch adds a check at the beginning of i2c_del_adapter in case someone attempts to remove an adapter that was never added in the first place. This sounds like a good safety, as doing so will lead to an oops at the moment. Also, I have a need for it in the latest version of my i2c-amd756-s4882 patch. I need to remove the original adapter and install the virtual ones instead, but I have no way to know if the original adapter was succesfully added beforehand or not.

In big endian machines, the read*/write* accessors do a byteswap for an inherently little endian PCI bus. However, rivafb puts the hardwire in big endian register access, thus the byteswap is not needed. So for 16- and 32-bit access, instead of read*/write*, use __raw_read*/__raw_write* for all archs.

The patch below fixes two flaws in minix_clear_inode. The first is that it tests bh which is never initialized. (&bh is a parameter of minix_V1_raw_inode, but that routine can fail and return before it has set bh) The second is that generic_delete_inode() goes BUG() in case inode->i_state != I_CLEAR. Clearly, it is expected that inode->i_sb->s_op->delete_inode does a clear_inode() at some point. But minix_delete_inode() calls minix_free_inode() and that routine can print an error and return early, before calling clear_inode().

ppdev's ioctls are not available for 32bit apps on 64bit systems. There are four ioctls which take no argument at all (so they are compatible between 32bit and 64bit), these numbers do not clash with any other ioctl code, and so I see no reason why not applying patch below. It solves problem VMware users are faced on 64bit systems if they want to use direct access to the parallel port.

When your plug-n-play BIOS is truly broken and generates a fault during use, we report this and suggest disabling it.

When there are more than one entry in fname linked list, the current implementation of ext3_dx_readdir() can not traverse all entries correctly in the case that call_filldir() fails. If we use system call readdir() to read entries in a directory which happens that "." and ".." in the same fname linked list. Each time we call readdir(), it will return the "." entry and never returns 0 which indicates that all entries are read. Although chances that more than one entry are in one fname linked list are very slim, it does exist. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Adopted from i386 architecture. Kprobes: Helps developers to trap at almost any kernel code address, specifying a handler routine to be invoked when the breakpoint is hit. Useful for analysing the Linux kernel by collecting debugging information non-disruptively. Employs single-stepping out-of-line to avoid probe misses on SMP and may be especially useful in aiding debugging elusive races and problems on live systems. More elaborate dynamic tracing tools can be built over the kprobes interface. Sample usage: To place a probe on __blockdev_direct_IO: static int probe_handler(struct kprobe *p, struct pt_regs *) { ... whatever ... } struct kprobe kp = { .addr = __blockdev_direct_IO, .pre_handler = probe_handler }; register_kprobe(&kp); Jprobes: A special kprobe type which can be placed on function entry points, and employs a simple mirroring principle to allow seamless access to the arguments of a function being probed. The probe handler routine should have the same prototype as the function being probed. The way it works is that when the probe is hit, the breakpoint handler simply irets to the probe handler's rip while retaining register and stack state corresponding to the function entry. After it is done, the probe handler calls jprobe_return() which traps again to restore processor state and switch back to the probed function. Linus noted correctly at KS that we need to be careful as gcc assumes that the callee owns arguments. We save and restore enough stack bytes to cover argument space. Sample Usage: static int jip_queue_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb, int ipfragok) { ... whatever ... jprobe_return(); return 0; } struct jprobe jp = { {.addr = (kprobe_opcode_t *) ip_queue_xmit}, .entry = (kprobe_opcode_t *) jip_queue_xmit }; register_jprobe(&jp); Signed-off-by: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

- Kprobes structure has been modified to support copying of original instruction as required by the architecture. On x86_64 normal pages we get from kmalloc or vmalloc are not executable. Single-stepping an instruction on such a page yields an oops. So instead of storing the instruction copies in their respective kprobe objects, we allocate a page, map it executable, and store all the instruction copies there and store the pointer of the copied instruction in the specific kprobes object. - jprobe_return_end is moved into inline assembly to avoid compiler optimization. - arch_prepare_kprobe() now returns an integer,since arch_prepare_kprobe() might fail on other architectures. - added arch_remove_kprobe() routine, since other architectures requires it.
