      [PCI] pci-15: Fix setup-bus.c resource sizing. · 18e35894
      Russell King authored
      Patch from Ivan Kokshaysky
      
      This fixes long standing typo ('size' instead of 'r_size') which causes
      overestimate of the bridge memory ranges calculated in pbus_size_mem().
      For example, if we have a device with one 1Mb and one 2Mb memory ranges
      behind the bridge, calculated size and alignment of the bridge memory
      window will be 4Mb and 2Mb respectively, while the correct values are
      3Mb and 1Mb.

      [PCI] pci-13: unuse pci_do_scan_bus() · 52e13cc2
      Russell King authored
      In an attempt to "unuse" pci_do_scan_bus() so it can be eventually
      killed, make pci_scan_bus_parented() call the new pci_scan_child_bus()
      and pci_bus_add_devices().  The only remaining callers are the
      hotplug drivers.
      
      Eventually, pci_bus_add_devices() will be removed from this function -
      it is intended that architectures should call this after they have
      done any setups and fixups to the scanned bus.
      
      It is legal to call pci_bus_add_devices() on a bus which has already
      had this function called, so architectures could update today.

      [PCI] pci-9: Kill per-architecture pcibios_update_resource() · b64958d9
      Russell King authored
      Kill pcibios_update_resource(), replacing it with pci_update_resource().
      pci_update_resource() uses pcibios_resource_to_bus() to convert a
      resource to a device BAR - the transformation should be exactly the
      same as the transformation used for the PCI bridges.
      
      pci_update_resource "knows" about 64-bit BARs, but doesn't attempt to
      set the high 32-bits to anything non-zero - currently no architecture
      attempts to do something different.  If anyone cares, please fix; I'm
      going to reflect current behaviour for the time being.
      
      Ivan pointed out the following architectures need to examine their
      pcibios_update_resource() implementation - they should make sure that
      this new implementation does the right thing.  #warning's have been
      added where appropriate.
      
      	ia64
      	mips
      	mips64
      
      This cset also includes a fix for the problem reported by AKPM where
      64-bit arch compilers complain about the resource mask being placed
      in a u32.

      [PCI] pci-8: pci_resource_to_bus() · 2ef9c88b
      Russell King authored
      Convert pcibios_fixup_pbus_ranges() into something more generic, namely
      pcibios_resource_to_bus() - we are really trying to convert resources
      to something to program into bus registers for bridge windows, and in
      fact, PCI device BARs.
      
      This is necessary since some architectures, namely Alpha, ARM and PARISC
      have an offset between PCI addressing and host-based addressing, so
      resources need to be adjusted when read or when written back to the bus.
      
      We provide a generic version in asm-generic/pci.h, which most
      architectures use.
      
      This patch finds the following architectures with something to think
      consider:
      
              - ppc, ppc64
                      adjusts resources for devices, but not buses.
      		This is inconsistent, and leads to improperly
      		programmed windows/BARs.
      
      PPC people (Anton) has a replacement PCI resource implementation
      which should do the right thing.

      [PCI] pci-7: Remove second argument to pcibios_update_resource() · 032d6c6e
      Russell King authored
      Patch from Ivan Kokshaysky
      
      remove the "parent" or "root" second argument to
      pcibios_update_resource().  This highlights the following
      architectures doing something wrong in their implementation:
      
              - ia64
              - mips it8172
              - mips "generic mips boards"

      [PATCH] sched-2.5.64-bk10-D0 · 5d6893e6
      Ingo Molnar authored
      This removes/fixes a few whitespaces and removes the MAX_PRIO setting in
      the init task path which is unnecessary and which might even lead to
      bugs - MAX_PRIO is outside the valid range and technically the init
      thread is not an idle thread yet at this point.

      [PATCH] sched-2.5.64-bk10-C4 · 51d38a67
      Ingo Molnar authored
      This fixes a fundamental (and long-standing) bug in the sleep-average
      estimator which is the root cause of the "contest process_load" problems
      reported by Mike Galbraith and Andrew Morton, and which problem is
      addressed by Mike's patch.
      
      The bug is the following: the sleep_time code in activate_task()
      over-estimates the true sleep time by 0.5 jiffies on average (0.5 msecs
      on recent 2.5 kernels).  Furthermore, for highly context-switch
      intensive and CPU-intensive workloads it means a constant 1 jiffy
      over-estimation.  This turns the balance of giving and removing ticks
      and nils the effect of the CPU busy-tick, catapulting the task(s) to
      highly interactive status - while in reality they are constantly burning
      CPU time.
      
      The fix is to round down sleep_time, not to round it up.  This slightly
      under-estimates the sleep time, but this is not a real problem, any task
      with a sleep time in the 1 jiffy range will see timekeeping granularity
      artifacts from various parts of the kernel anyway.  We could use rdtsc
      to estimate the sleep time, but i think that's unnecessary overhead.
      
      The fixups in Mike's scheduler patch (which is in -mm8) basically work
      around this bug.  The patch below definitely fixes the contest-load
      starvation bug, but it remains to be seen what other effects it has on
      interactivity.  In any case, this bug in the estimator is real and if
      there's any other interactivity problem around then we need to deal with
      it ontop of this patch.
      
      This bug has been in the O(1) scheduler from day 1 on basically, so i'm
      quite hopeful that a number of interactivity complaints are fixed by
      this patch.

      scsi_debug version 1.68 mark III · b4997f76
      Douglas Gilbert authored
      Changelog since version 1.68 mark II:
        - merge Mike Anderson's probe() cleanup
           - num_devs is now "per host"
           - num_devs is sysfs writeable
        - add slave_alloc skeleton code
      
      So to simulate 154 disks (for example) one might use:
        # modprobe scsi_debug add_host=11 num_devs=14
      
      With max_luns at its default value of 2, 14 is the
      maximum number of devices per host scsi_debug will
      respond to (i.e. 7 targets, each with 2 lus).
