The fix for rename broke "link()". Fixed.

so we need to make init_idle() aware of it so that it gets the preempt_count initialization right.

I've found what's going on there. Basically, we should not use __user_walk() with LOOKUP_PARENT - nd->last.name is set to the last component of the name and freeing that name before we are done is not a good idea.

On SMP systems, preempt_count is erroneously set to 1 for idle task's on all CPU besides CPU0. This patch sets preempt_count properly. Robert Love

I see that this is fixed now in 2.2 and 2.4, but 2.5 still has broken BSD partition handling. Here a fix. Andries

- Fix bug in tw_aen_complete() where aen's could be lost. Fix tw_aen_drain_queue() to display useful info at init. Set tw_host->max_id for 12 port cards. Add ioctl support for raw command packet post from userspace with sglist fragments (parameter and io). - Fix read capacity to under report by 1 sector to fix get last sector ioctl. - Fix bug where more AEN codes weren't coming out during driver initialization. Improved handling of PCI aborts. - Fix bug in tw_findcards() where AEN code could be lost. Increase timeout in tw_aen_drain_queue() to 30 seconds. - Re-write raw command post with data ioctl method. Remove raid5 bounce buffers for raid5 for 6XXX for kernel 2.5 Add tw_map/unmap_scsi_sg/single_data() for kernel 2.5 Replace io_request_lock with host_lock for kernel 2.5 Set max_cmd_len to 16 for 3dm for kernel 2.5 - Set host->max_sectors back up to 256. - Modified pci parity error handling/clearing from config space during initialization. - Better handling of request sense opcode and sense information for failed commands. Add tw_decode_sense(). Replace all mdelay()'s with scsi_sleep(). - Revert mdelay's and scsi_sleep's, this caused problems on some SMP systems. - Add pci_set_dma_mask(), rewrite kmalloc()/virt_to_bus() to pci_alloc/free_consistent().

There is a problem with the through-8259A mode for IRQ 0 on I/O APIC systems. Depending on correctness of an MP table, IRQ 0 routing is either not registered at all or registered at a wrong pin. As a result the 8254 timer IRQ only works by an accident (it's edge-triggered and never disabled/enabled so it happens to survive this incorrect configuration). A visible effect is you can't change the affinity for IRQ 0. Following is a patch that fixes both cases referred to above. The code looks obvious but it was additionally run-time tested just in case. The issue is serious -- please apply the patch ASAP. As no changes were done to io_apic.c since the development fork, the patch applies cleanly both to 2.4 and to 2.5. Credit goes to Joe for discovering the affinity problem and providing a fix proposal (incorporated in the final one). Maciej

There is no such a thing like a ide-clean-15. Never was. But here comes what has been done in ide-clean-16: - Apply a patch for the initialization of the second PIIX channel. Found by Daniel Quinlan <quinlan@transmeta.com> - Apply a patch for the DMA initialization of the serverworks chip. Ken Brownfield <brownfld@irridia.com> - Make the ata_operations methods immune against device type drivers, which donot provide them by separating the access to them out. Audit them all. - Resynchronize with 2.5.6-pre1. - Remove unused IDE_DRIVE_CMD, IDE_DRIVE_TASK, IDE_DRIVE_TASK_MASK, IDE_DRIVE_TASKFILE macros. - Disable configuration of the task file stuff. It is going to go away and will be replaced by a truly abstract interface based on functionality and *not* direct mess-up of hardware. - Resync with 2.5.6-pre2. - Add HPT entries to the fall-back list, since otherwise the driver won'trecognize the drives. We will have to make this the default behavior for allnot recognized host chip types. - Fix compilation with no PCI host chip support enabled. - Apply the overflow fixes for HPT366 by Vojtech Pavlik. - Kill the one-shoot functions ide_wait_cmd_taks() ide_wait_cmd() by moving them to the places where they are actually used. Fix a potential buffer overflow on the way. - Fix usage of ide.c as module. Thanks to Adam J. Richter for figuring out what was wrong. - Various cleanups all along as well as removal of TONS of unfinished/dead code. I think it's sometimes better to remove stuff, which isn't there, instead of hoping for a "magical day" where it will be finished.

This is the Richard Henderson-approved, cleaner, brighter per-cpu patch.

Ok, I found it. The problem was in the decompression code. In inflate.c, in the routine zlib_inflate(), it reuses the passed-in "f" parameter as a return value, but the PPP packet compression stuff needs that return value later.

During 2.5.5-pre schedule_tail was optimized away under UP. We need it for preempt-kernel, too, since it decrements the preempt_count to 0 coming off do_fork. Without this patch, CONFIG_PREEMPT + !CONFIG_SMP does not gain one very much. Robert Love

Below is a followup to bd_claim patch - it is the last one from the current series. Removes SWP_BLOCKDEV flag - it isn't needed anymore.
-
Alexander Viro authored
* new functions - bd_claim(bdev, holder) and bd_release(bdev). bd_claim(bdev, holder) fails is device is already claimed by somebody else; bd_release(bdev) gives device up. * get_sb_bdev() claims device for fs_type; it means that we don't need to look through entire least of superblocks anymore - just through the list of superblocks belonging to that type (i.e. the same thing we do for non-block filesystems; that will allow to merge quite a bit of code afterwards). * sys_swapon claims device for itself; free exclusion with mounting, end of problems with bogus set_blocksize(). * is_mounted() and is_swap_partition() are gone - what we actually wanted was "try to claim device for ourselves". Which we can do now - without races inherent to is_mounted()/is_swap_partition(). * RAID lock_rdev() claims device for itself. I.e. we get rid of is_mounted() in there (BTW, is_swap_partition() was missing) and we get protection both ways - not only RAID won't take an already mounted device, but mount won't stomp on a device claimed by RAID. There are other places that would benefit from the same (e.g. ext3 with external journal almost definitely wants to claim device for itself). Notice that it's a cooperative thing - neither open() nor raw device stuff claim the block device, so they don't care if device is mounted, etc. So we don't break fsck and friends - exclusion is between those who know that they want that exclusion.

it's too big for kmalloc.

David Woodhouse authored
Use vmalloc for ppp_deflate workspace. It's 400KiB, and kmalloc strangely doesn't seem to work very well for that :) Use schedule_task to do a delayed cleanup, because the z_comp_free routine is called with spinlocks held, hence we can't just call vfree(). Fix double MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT when allocation fails, for both compression and decompression workspaces. Change licence text to one that insmod likes.
