Patch from Lennert Buytenhek This is an old patch from 2.6.9-rc3-ds2 that never made it upstream. The IXP2000 slowport has two modes of operation, 8-bit and 32-bit. The slowport itself is a byte-wide bus, and in 8-bit mode, it does the more-or-less obvious thing: every word read causes four byte reads, and those bytes are then combined into a word according to the xscale core's current endian setting. So, what value you get depends on what endianity your IXP2000 is running in. In 32-bit mode, however, it is the slowport itself which combines bytes into words, and for this it unconditionally uses little endian mode. In this mode, word reads from the slowport will return the same value no matter whether the xscale core is running in big or little endian mode. This can be a plus in some cases. Byte (and halfword) accesses in 32-bit mode have rather useless semantics due to this, though. The usefulness of 32-bit mode is limited to the initial boot. When the IXP2000 resets, the slowport is always in 32-bit mode, so if you flash the bootloader into flash (which is connected to the slowport) using little-endian byte ordering, the xscale will always read the instruction stream correctly, no matter whether it's running in big or little endian mode. After booting it makes no sense to use 32-bit mode anymore. Especially since the slowport's word ordering in 32-bit mode is little endian, and the IXP2000 is conventionally run in big endian, which gives all kinds of fun issues when trying to access peripherals connected to the slowport. In fact, the current MTD map driver for IXP2000 already sets the slowport to 8-bit mode because it cannot access the flash otherwise. However, this means that if the MTD map driver is not compiled in for some reason, the slowport will stay in 32-bit mode after the initial boot, which will cause peripheral accesses to unexpectedly break!

I am awfully sorry, but that patch contained a bug. The code dereferenced cmd->back as if it were a pointer to a request even when it wasn't. It worked by accident, because rq->flags overlapped with a zeroed memory in other case. Here is a corrective patch.

This patch fixes a nasty bug that took us almost a week to track down on ppc64, introduced by the 4L page table changes, and resulting in random memory corruption. All archs that rely on a PTE page's struct page to contain the mm & address (in mapping/index) will be affected. zeromap_pud_range() is one of these page tables walking functions that split the address into a base and an offset. It forgets to add back the "base" when calling the lower level zeromap_pmd_range(), thus passing a bogus virtual address. Most archs won't care, unless they do the above, since the lower level can allocate a PTE page. Kudo's to Michael Ellerman too who spent that week running tests after tests to track it down, since the only way we managed to get it to show up was after about 1 to 2h of LTP runs ... (Note: We are in _urgent_ need to consolidate all those page table walking functions, they all do things in a subtely different way, with different checks (sometimes redudant) and inconsitent with each other, even within a given set of them. Hopefully, Nick has some work in progress there). Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

When using 4level-fixup.h, a PMD page may end up beeing freed before the matching PGD entry is cleared due to the way the compatibility macros work. This can cause nasty races on some architectures. This patch fixes it by defining pud_clear() to be pgd_clear(). That means we'll actually write 0 twice, a small price to pay here, especially seeing how easy it is to convert to the new headers anyway (hint hint, ppc & ppc64 patches as soon as 2.6.11 is out).

This gets rid of a bug found in some IRQ handling logic, after tripping a debug assertion. Basically, a recent patch called the wrong routine to unlink a QH. Net result, it wasn't allowing for the case that some other QH was already being unlinked. This patch uses the correct routine; the names are confusingly similar, and the effect is often identical. The consequence of using the wrong routine was that the driver could lose one of the pending unlinks (probably wedging some activity) and treat the other one as completed before it was safe to do so (which probably wouldn't oops, but could cause other nasty corruption).

Implemented ACPI 3.0 support for implicit conversion within the Match() operator. match_obj can now be of type integer, buffer, or string instead of just type integer. Package elements are implicitly converted to the type of the match_obj. This change aligns the behavior of Match() with the behavior of the other logical operators (LLess(), etc.) It also requires an errata change to the ACPI specification as this support was intended for ACPI 3.0, but was inadvertently omitted. Fixed a problem with the internal implicit "to buffer" conversion. Strings that are converted to buffers will cause buffer truncation if the string is smaller than the target buffer. Integers that are converted to buffers will not cause buffer truncation, only zero extension (both as per the ACPI spec.) The problem was introduced when code was added to truncate the buffer, but this should not be performed in all cases, only the string case. Fixed a problem with the Buffer and Package operators where the interpreter would get confused if two such operators were used as operands to an ASL operator (such as LLess(Buffer(1){0},Buffer(1){1}). The internal result stack was not being popped after the execution of these operators, resulting in an AE_NO_RETURN_VALUE exception. Fixed a problem with constructs of the form Store(Index(...),...). The reference object returned from Index was inadvertently resolved to an actual value. This problem was introduced in version 20050114 when the behavior of Store() was modified to restrict the object types that can be used as the source operand (to match the ACPI specification.) Reduced stack use in acpi_get_object_info().

It appears that access to the PLL registers of the radeon chip is unreliable while the card is in "legacy VGA" text mode. I don't have a good explanation yet, it might be the BIOS mucking around behind my back. This fixes the lockup by moving the code that enables/disables the dynamic power management to after the mode is set. I'm still waiting for a proper explanation from ATI...

Noted while going through the n_tty code: that buffer check used to check against the size of the temporary kernel buffer, but since the tty layer was changed to use kernel buffers though-out, the kernel buffer array became just a pointer, and the check was limiting the opost blocksize to the size of a pointer, which makes no sense. Just remove it, since now the whole buffer is always in kernel space.
