`make help' in the build tree doesn't show the help texts about the `headers_install' and `headers_check' targets because it looks for include/asm-$(ARCH)/Kbuild in the wrong place. Add the missing `$(srctree)' prefixes to fix this. Also move the printing of the default install path for the headers inside the `if/fi', where it belongs.

During ufs_trunc_direct which is subroutine of ufs::truncate, we try the first of all free parts of block and then whole blocks. But we calculate size of block's part to free in the wrong way. This may cause bad update of used blocks and fragments statistic, and you can got report that you have free 32T on 1Gb partition.

These series of patches result of UFS1 write support stress testing, like running fsx-linux, untar and build linux kernel etc We pass from ufs::get_block_t to levels below: pointer to the current page, to make possible things like reallocation of blocks on the fly, and we also uses this pointer for indication, what actually we allocate data block or meta data block, but currently we make decision about what we allocate on the wrong level, this may and cause oops if we allocate blocks in some special order.

The BUG in fuse_ctl_add_dentry() could be triggered if the control filesystem was unmounted and mounted again while one or more fuse filesystems were present.

Serge E. Hallyn authored
Fix exit race by splitting the nsproxy putting into two pieces. First piece reduces the nsproxy refcount. If we dropped the last reference, then it puts the mnt_ns, and returns the nsproxy as a hint to the caller. Else it returns NULL. The second piece of exiting task namespaces sets tsk->nsproxy to NULL, and drops the references to other namespaces and frees the nsproxy only if an nsproxy was passed in. A little awkward and should probably be reworked, but hopefully it fixes the NFS oops. Signed-off-by: Serge E.

This makes balance_dirty_page() always base its calculations on the amount of non-highmem memory in the machine, rather than try to base it on total memory and then falling back on non-highmem memory if the mapping it was writing wasn't highmem capable. This not only fixes a situation where two different writers can have wildly different notions about what is a "balanced" dirty state, but it also means that people with highmem machines don't run into an OOM situation when regular memory fills up with dirty pages. We used to try to handle the latter case by scaling down the dirty_ratio if the machine had a lot of highmem pages in page_writeback_init(), but it wasn't aggressive enough for some situations, and since basing the dirty ratio on highmem memory was broken in the first place, let's just stop doing so. (A variation of this theme fixed Justin Piszcz's OOM problem when copying an 18GB file on a RAID setup).

A stupid bug has been plaguing the sys_pciconfig_iobase on ppc64. It wasn't noticed until recently as it seems to not affect G5s but it's been causing problems running X servers on some other machines recently. The bus number matching was bogus.

Mirror the logic in the sun4u handler, we have to update both registers even when we branch out to window fault fixup handling. The way it works is that if we are in etrap processing a fault already, g4/g5 holds the original fault information. If we take a window spill fault while doing etrap, then we put the window spill fault info into g4/g5 and this is what the top-level fault handler ends up processing first. Then we retry the originally faulting instruction, and process the original fault at that time. This is all necessary because of how constrained the trap registers are in these code paths. These cases trigger very rarely, so even if there is some performance implication it's doesn't happen very often. In fact the rarity is why it took so long to trigger and find this particular bug.

On the Maple board, the AMD8111 IDE is in legacy mode... except that it appears on IRQ 20 instead of IRQ 15. For drivers/ide this was handled by the architecture's "pci_get_legacy_ide_irq()" function, but in libata we just hard-code the numbers 14 and 15. This patch provides asm-powerpc/libata-portmap.h which maps the IRQ as appropriate, having added a pci_dev argument to the ATA_{PRIM,SECOND}ARY_IRQ macros. There's probably a better way to do this -- especially if we observe that the _only_ case in which this seemingly-generic "pci_get_legacy_ide_irq()" function returns anything other than 14 and 15 for primary and secondary respectively is the case of the AMD8111 on the Maple board -- couldn't we handle that with a special case in the pata_amd driver, or perhaps with a PCI quirk for Maple to switch it into native mode during early boot and assign resources properly?

Before hardreset, ahci initialized stat part of received FIS area to 0xff to wait for the first D2H Reg FIS which would change the value to device ready state. This used to work but now libata considers status value of 0xff as device not present making this wait prone to failure. This patch makes ahci use 0x80 for the wait stat value instead of 0xff to fix the above problem.

Fix race when deleting an EFI variable and issuing another EFI command on the same variable. The removal of the variable from the efivars_list should be done in efivar_delete and not delayed until the kobject release. Furthermore, remove the item from the list at module unload time, and use list_for_each_entry_safe() rather than list_for_each_safe() for readability. Tested on ia64.

raid5_mergeable_bvec tries to ensure that raid5 never sees a read request that does not fit within just one chunk. However as we must always accept a single-page read, that is not always possible. So when "in_chunk_boundary" fails, it might be unusual, but it is not a problem and printing a message every time is a bad idea.
