      [CRYPTO]: Bug fixes and cleanups. · eadec301
      James Morris authored
      - try_inc_mod_count() already does what crypto_alg_get() was trying to do.
      (feedback from Andrew Morton).
      - Moved the BUG_ON() in crypto_unregister_alg() further up, no need to
      bother iterating over the list.
      - Always use kmap_atomic (feedback from Andrew Morton).  Implemented two
      atomic kmaps, KM_USER for user context and KM_SOFTIRQ for softirq
      context.
      - Fixup KM_CRYPTO_ placement so Dave does not go crazy.

      [PATCH] device removal · a49c4f6a
      Patrick Mochel authored
      The problem was that when the refcount hit 0, it was unconditionally
      assuming that it had been added, which is wrong.  The patch below
      corrects that, and fixes the Oops when loading the floppy driver.

      [PATCH] add linux/ioctl32.h header for 2.5.43 · 1a19232d
      Andi Kleen authored
      Several ports (x86-64,ppc64,sparc64) which do 32bit ioctl emulation
      have functions for drivers to let them define their own translation
      handlers. So far it was a bit complicated to use because there
      was no standard include file that declares the prototypes for this
      stuff. Then drivers and other subsystems can start to declare their own
      ioctl translation handlers.
      
      This patch add include/linux/ioctl32.h to fix this.
      
      The actual implementation is in arch specific code. It has been coordinated
      with DaveM and Anton.
      
      This patch is needed for the x86-64 merge I sent in separate mail.
      
      There is currently no preprocessor symbol that the drivers can test
      to see if they should use this. So far they have to check arch symbols.
      This will be fixed later when all 64bit ports that need it add the dynamic
      ioctl registration API too (that's ia64,s390x,mips64)

      [PATCH] x86-64 updates for 2.5.43 · 3428c8d1
      Andi Kleen authored
      This fixes a few files that got lost with the last merge and merges
      with 2.5.43/i386.  Only changes architecture specific files.
      
      It depends on one other patch (for linux/ioctl32.h) which I'm sending
      separately.
      
      Changes:
      - Include missing files (pageattr.c) and Makefile changes
      - Update IA32 subsystem. Various small fixes and a big merge
        with sparc64.
      - Change HZ to 1000
      - Merge some of the 2.5.43/i386 profiling changes. No full oprofile yet.
      - Fix many warnings
      - Update defconfig
      - Various other smaller cleanups and bugfixes.

      [PATCH] RCU helper patchset 2/2 · a0b6c9c1
      Dipankar Sarma authored
      This adds a set of list macros that make handling of list protected
      by RCU simpler. The interfaces added are -
      
      list_add_rcu
      list_add_tail_rcu
      	- Adds an element by taking care of memory barrier (wmb()).
      
      list_del_rcu
      	- Deletes an element but doesn't re-initialize the pointers in
      	  the element for supporting RCU based traversal.
      
      list_for_each_rcu
      __list_for_each_rcu
      	- Traversal of RCU protected list - takes care of memory barriers
      	  transparently.

      [PATCH] RCU helper patchset 1/2 · 0ec69870
      Dipankar Sarma authored
      This first RCU helper patch adds a read_barrier_depends() primitive
      to all archs which is NOP for archs that doesn't require an rmb()
      for data dependent reads when writes are ordered using a wmb().
      In reality, only alpha requires an rmb(), the rest are NOPs.
      It is likely to be necessary in most situations that would use RCU.
      Please apply.
      
       Description :
      
      Sometime ago, during a discussion on lock-free lookups, it was
      agreed that an additional memory barrier interface,
      read_barrier_depends() that is lighter than an rmb(),
      is necessary to make sure that data-dependent reads are not
      re-ordered over this barrier. For many processors, data-dependency
      enforces order, so this interface is a NOP, but for those that don't
      (like alpha), it can be a rmb().
      
      For example, the following code would force ordering (the initial
      value of "a" is zero, "b" is one, and "p" is "&a"):
      
          CPU 0                           CPU 1
      
          b = 2;
          memory_barrier();
          p = &b;                         q = p;
                                          read_barrier_depends();
                                          d = *q;
      
      because the read of "*q" depends on the read of "p" and these
      two reads should be separated by a read_barrier_depends().  However,
      the following code, with the same initial values for "a" and "b":
      
          CPU 0                           CPU 1
      
          a = 2;
          memory_barrier();
          b = 3;                          y = b;
                                          read_barrier_depends();
                                          x = a;
      
      does not enforce ordering, since there is no data dependency between
      the read of "a" and the read of "b".  Therefore, on some CPUs, such
      as Alpha, "y" could be set to 3 and "x" to 0.  rmb()
      needs to be used here, not read_barrier_depends().
