This patch adds an optional callback for the 8250 driver to request the list of legacy port via a function call instead of relying on a #define of an array. This finally allows to fix the problem of platforms like ppc and ppc64 for which the same kernel can boot machines with and without a 8250, and is necessary to properly deal with a new platform coming to ppc64 which has a 8250 but with different irq numbers.

This patch replaces the open_pic IRQ controller driver with a new version rewritten from scratch, called "mpic" (this is the name of IBM's open_pic implementation and also the only one actually used on any platform). It is smaller, hopefully more readable, supports the various variants of the cell in a single driver (open_pic_u3.c is gone), and adds optional support for the workaround of U3 mpic beeing used along with IO-APICs on HyperTransport (the eval board will uses that, among others).

This patch fixes the setup of the secondary CPU(s) on pSeries, on non-LPAR platforms, especially with 970 CPUs, we need to copy some of the HID registers from CPU0 to the other ones as soon as they reach the early asm code. The PowerMac SMP entry did it already, but not the pSeries one. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This patch moves some of the routines responsible for dealing with the mapping of PCI host bridges IO space from pSeries to the generic ppc64 pci code. PowerMac doesn't use it currently, but a new platform will soon. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Makes sure msleep() sleeps at least the amount provided, since schedule_timeout() doesn't guarantee a full jiffy. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The file didn't compile, and the ALSA CVS tree had dropped the bitfield signedness fixes.

Now that spinlocks are uninlined, it is silly to keep the BKL inlined. And this should make it a lot easier for people to play around with variations on the locking (ie Ingo's semaphores etc).

The code in fbmem.c:fb_blank() is broken. For drivers without an fb_blank hook, an FBIO_BLANK ioctl will produce wrong colors or will segfault. Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@pol.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This does _not_ handle the conditional ones (lock_kernel and the trylock variants), so there will be a fair number of context error warnings with this. However, the warnings are disabled by default in sparse - you have to use "-Wcontext" to see them.

This just sets up the portability defines.

I hadn't realized this was supposed to be an official interface. Or maybe it's not, but the fb drivers all use it. Anyway...

While looking at the signal.c coredumping BUG_ON race, I noticed a bug (not directly related) in do_coredump. It was setting the "core dumped" flag even when the format dumping hook failed (e.g. for memory allocation failures). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This is indeed a new bug, and it is not architecture-specific. In my recent changes to close some race conditions, I overlooked the case of a process using PTRACE_ATTACH on its own children. The new PT_ATTACHED flag does not really mean "PTRACE_ATTACH was used", it means "PTRACE_ATTACH is changing the ->parent link". This fixes the problem that Stephane Eranian program demonstrates.

Oh, duh. The race is obvious. Sorry for the confusion there. The BUG_ON's were useful for debugging, since they trigger on a lot of errors, but they _also_ trigger on some unlikely (but valid) races. So just remove them - just fall through to the regular exit code after core-dumping (which does everything right). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Doing access control checks with rq_lock held can cause deadlock when audit messages are created (via printk or audit infrastructure) which trigger a wakeup and deadlock, as noted by both SELinux and SubDomain folks. This patch will let the security checks happen w/out lock held, then re-sample the p->policy in case it was raced. Originally from John Johansen <johansen@immunix.com>, reworked by me. AFAIK, this version drew no objections from Ingo or Andrea.
