[PATCH] e100 locking up netconsole. · 7c6cbbe3

Andrew Morton authored Jan 27, 2005

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

If the transmit buffer of the e100 overflowed, then the system would hang.
This was caused because the e100 driver would stop the queue, and
netpoll_send_pkt in netpoll.c would then loop forever.  This is because the
e100 net_poll would never start the queue again after the transmits have
completed.

For those that use the e100 and netconsole, all you need to do is a sysreq
't' to lock up the system.

[PATCH] fix ext3 quota allocation bug on error path ... · c4eadeb7

Herbert Pötzl authored Jan 25, 2005

looking at ext3_xattr_block_set() [fs/ext3/xattr.c] ...
I see that

                                error = -EDQUOT;
                                if (DQUOT_ALLOC_BLOCK(inode, 1))
                                        goto cleanup;

allocates a quota block, but right after that several
error echecks happen ...

                                if (error)
                                        goto cleanup;

and I don't see any DQUOT_FREE_BLOCK() in the errorpath

cleanup:
        if (ce)
                mb_cache_entry_release(ce);
        brelse(new_bh); 
        if (!(bs->bh && s->base == bs->bh->b_data))
                kfree(s->base);

        return error;

I'd suggest the attached fix.

[PATCH] fix broken cross compiles · 0bfe221f

James Bottomley authored Jan 25, 2005

The change to kbuild to use -isystem `gcc -print-file-name=include`
broke our parisc crosscompile (and presumably everyone else's).

The reason is that you have a := in the NOSTDINC_FLAGS rule, which is
evaluated in situ (i.e.  before we've had a chance to set CROSSCOMPILE
on CC) so the gcc include path is actually the native one not the
crosscompiler one.  On parisc this causes us to be unable to handle
_builtin_va functions, but I bet there are a heap of other problems.

[XFRM]: Probe selected algorithm only. · d113f0f0

Herbert Xu authored Jan 25, 2005

This patch removes an annoying problem in xfrm_user.  As it is every
time an SA is added it probes every known algorithm in the universe.
Now if they all existed it would be OK.  However, for the ones which
don't actually exist this causes multiple /sbin/modprobe processes to
be spawned which slows the system down when you're adding hundreds of
SAs.

Since we know the type of algorithm required when we're adding a new
SA, we can get away with only probing the selected algorithms.  This
is what the following patch does for xfrm_user.

[PATCH] matroxfb: FB_MATROX_G Kconfig changes · db8f4702

Antonino Daplas authored Jan 25, 2005

The current Kconfig entries for the Matrox G cards are quite confusing:

  config FB_MATROX_G450
          bool "G100/G200/G400/G450/G550 support"
          depends on FB_MATROX

  config FB_MATROX_G100A
          bool "G100/G200/G400 support"
          depends on FB_MATROX && !FB_MATROX_G450

  The patch below contains:
  - remove FB_MATROX_G100{,A} and rename FB_MATROX_G to FB_MATROX_G450
    (FB_MATROX_G450 included support from the G100 to the G550, so
     I don't see any non-historic reason why to call it G450)
  - small update for the FB_MATROX_G Kconfig text

  The disadvantage of this patch is, that you can no longer select support
  only for the G100-G400 without supporting the G450 and G550. But
  compared with the current confusing Kconfig setup, I don't think that's
  a big issue.

[PATCH] intelfb: Workaround for 830M · 4efc7303

Antonino Daplas authored Jan 25, 2005

This is a work around for the 830M with intelfb.  Relative to 2.6.10.  Without
this patch, updates to the DSPACNTR register will be ignored.

On the 830M, the display plane needs to be enabled before writing to any of
the other bits in the DSPACNTR register.

This patch detects the specific case, temporarily enables the plane, updates
the register, and then disables the plane.  It also appears to require some
settling time, but not an entire frame's time.

Without this change, the pixel format fields in DSPACNTR won't get written on
the 830M.

[PATCH] vesafb: Change return error id · ceca3893

Antonino Daplas authored Jan 25, 2005

With <Stuart_Hayes@Dell.com>

I'm getting a message in dmesg: "localhost kernel: vesafb: probe of vesafb0
failed with error -6"

I searched the web, and found that a lot of people are getting this, but I
couldn't find an answer, so I looked into it.

This appears to be because "vesafb" returns -ENXIO ("No such device or
address") when its probe function fails.  However, driverse/base/bus.c spews
an error message during device_attach() if a matching driver's probe function
returns anything but -ENODEV ("No such device").
