It was only the RTC hardware that restricted interrupt frequencies to a power of two. There is no reason to take over this restriction into the HPET driver, so remove the offending check.

Clemens Ladisch authored
On 32-bit architectures, the multiplication in the argument for hpet_time_div() often overflows. In the typical case of a 14.32 MHz timer, this happens when the desired frequency exceeds 61 Hz. To avoid this multiplication, we can precompute and store the hardware timer frequency, instead of the period, in the device structure, which leaves us with a simple division when computing the number of timer ticks. As a side effect, this also removes a theoretical bug where the timer interpolator's frequency would be computed as a 32-bit value even if the HPET frequency is greater than 2^32 Hz (the HPET spec allows up to 10 GHz).

Kylene Jo Hall authored
Since the tpm does not have it's own pci id we have been consuming the lpc bus. This is not correct and causes problems to support non lpc bus chips. This patch removes the dependency on pci_dev from tpm.c The subsequent patches will stop the supported chips from registering as pci drivers.

This patch is in preparation of supporting chips that are not necessarily on the lpc bus and thus are not accessed with inb's and outb's. The patch replaces the call to get the chip's status in the tpm.c file with a vendor specific status function. The patch also defines the function for each of the current supported devices.

I made a patch that detects if libintl.h (needed for nls) is present on the host system and if it's not, it nls support is disabled by providing dummies for the used nls functions. This way if there is nls support on the host system the *config targets will build according to Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo's i18n modifications, else it just uses the original English messages. I have also made a bug report at kernel's bugzilla: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5501 And there is a discussion about this problem in Gentoo's bugzilla: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99810 Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

A couple of (char *) casts removed in a previous cleanup patch in lib/string.c:memmove() were actually useful, as they suppressed a couple of warnings: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type Fix by declaring the local variable const in the first place, so casts aren't needed to strip the const qualifier.

If a filesystem passes an idiotic blocksize into bread(), __getblk_slow() will warn and will return NULL. We have a report (from Hubert Tonneau <hubert.tonneau@fullpliant.org>) of isofs_fill_super() doing this (passing in a silly block size) against an unplugged CDROM drive. But a couple of __getblk_slow() callers forgot to check for the NULL bh, hence oops. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This patch is a rewrite of the one submitted on October 1st, using modules (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112819093522998&w=2). This rewrite adds a tristate CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST, which enables an intense torture test of the RCU infratructure. This is needed due to the continued changes to the RCU infrastructure to accommodate dynamic ticks, CPU hotplug, realtime, and so on. Most of the code is in a separate file that is compiled only if the CONFIG variable is set. Documentation on how to run the test and interpret the output is also included. This code has been tested on i386 and ppc64, and an earlier version of the code has received extensive testing on a number of architectures as part of the PREEMPT_RT patchset. Signed-off-by: "Paul E.

This patch fixes a long-standing vgacon bug: characters with the bright bit set were left on the screen and not blacked out. All I did was that I lookuped up some examples on the net about setting the vga palette, and added the call missing from the linux kernel, but included in all other ones. It works for me. You can test this by writing something with the bright set to the console, for example: echo -e "\e[1;31mhello there\e[0m" and then wait for the console to blank itself (by default, after 10 mins of inactivity), maybe making it faster using setterm -blank 1 so you only have to wait 1 minute.

This patch adds tests for the return value of sb_getblk() in the ext2/3 filesystems. In fs/buffer.c it is stated that the getblk() function never fails. However, it does can return NULL in some situations due to I/O errors, which may lead us to NULL pointer dereferences Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <glommer@br.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

list_move(&inode->i_list, &inode_in_use); } else { list_move(&inode->i_list, &inode_unused); + inodes_stat.nr_unused++; } } wake_up_inode(inode); Are you sure the above diff is correct? It was added somewhere between 2.6.5 and 2.6.8. I think it's wrong. The only way I can imagine the i_count to be zero in the above path, is that I_WILL_FREE is set. And if I_WILL_FREE is set, then we must not increase nr_unused. So I believe the above change is buggy and it will definitely overstate the number of unused inodes and it should be backed out. Note that __writeback_single_inode before calling __sync_single_inode, can drop the spinlock and we can have both the dirty and locked bitflags clear here: spin_unlock(&inode_lock); __wait_on_inode(inode); iput(inode); XXXXXXX spin_lock(&inode_lock); } use inode again here a construct like the above makes zero sense from a reference counting standpoint. Either we don't ever use the inode again after the iput, or the inode_lock should be taken _before_ executing the iput (i.e. a __iput would be required). Taking the inode_lock after iput means the iget was useless if we keep using the inode after the iput. So the only chance the 2.6 was safe to call __writeback_single_inode with the i_count == 0, is that I_WILL_FREE is set (I_WILL_FREE will prevent the VM to free the inode in XXXXX). Potentially calling the above iput with I_WILL_FREE was also wrong because it would recurse in iput_final (the second mainline bug). The below (untested) patch fixes the nr_unused accounting, avoids recursing in iput when I_WILL_FREE is set and makes sure (with the BUG_ON) that we don't corrupt memory and that all holders that don't set I_WILL_FREE, keeps a reference on the inode!
