Remove a lot of duplicate #defines from the advansys driver, and make them look like PCI IDs as defined elsewhere in the kernel. Also add a module table so that it automatically gets picked up by tools relying on modinfo output (like say, distro installers).

Priority: not critical. Mark 3 functions __init. Saves a little memory. This makes these functions' calls to AdvWaitEEPCmd() (which is __init) be clean (i.e., eliminates text -> init -> text call chain).

The alignment exception used to only check the exception table for -EFAULT, not for other errors. That opens an oops window if we can coerce the kernel into getting an alignment exception for other reasons in what would normally be a user-protected accessor, which can be done via some of the futex ops. This fixes it by always checking the exception tables. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

In bugzilla #6941, Jens Kilian reported: "The function befs_utf2nls (in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c) writes a 0 byte past the end of a block of memory allocated via kmalloc(), leading to memory corruption. This happens only for filenames which are pure ASCII and a multiple of 4 bytes in length. [...] Without DEBUG_SLAB, this leads to further corruption and hard lockups; I believe this is the bug which has made kernels later than 2.6.8 unusable for me. (This must be due to changes in memory management, the bug has been in the BeFS driver since the time it was introduced (AFAICT).) Steps to reproduce: Create a directory (in BeOS, naturally :-) with files named, e.g., "1", "22", "333", "4444", ... Mount it in Linux and do an "ls" or "find"" This patch implements the suggested fix. Credits to Jens Kilian for debugging the problem and finding the right fix.

Replace add_timer() by mod_timer() in dst_run_gc in order to avoid BUG message. CPU1 CPU2 dst_run_gc() entered dst_run_gc() entered spin_lock(&dst_lock) ..... del_timer(&dst_gc_timer) fail to get lock .... mod_timer() <--- puts timer back to the list add_timer(&dst_gc_timer) <--- BUG because timer is in list already. Found during OpenVZ internal testing. At first we thought that it is OpenVZ specific as we added dst_run_gc(0) call in dst_dev_event(), but as Alexey pointed to me it is possible to trigger this condition in mainstream kernel. F.e. timer has fired on CPU2, but the handler was preeempted by an irq before dst_lock is tried. Meanwhile, someone on CPU1 adds an entry to gc list and starts the timer. If CPU2 was preempted long enough, this timer can expire simultaneously with resuming timer handler on CPU1, arriving exactly to the situation described.

As detailed at http://bugs.gentoo.org/131534 : 2.6.16 converted many ACPI debug messages into error or warning messages.

Christoph Lameter authored
The scheduler will stop load balancing if the most busy processor contains processes pinned via processor affinity. The scheduler currently only does one search for busiest cpu. If it cannot pull any tasks away from the busiest cpu because they were pinned then the scheduler goes into a corner and sulks leaving the idle processors idle. F.e. If you have processor 0 busy running four tasks pinned via taskset, there are none on processor 1 and one just started two processes on processor 2 then the scheduler will not move one of the two processes away from processor 2. This patch fixes that issue by forcing the scheduler to come out of its corner and retrying the load balancing by considering other processors for load balancing. This patch was originally developed by John Hawkes and discussed at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113901368523205&w=2. I have removed extraneous material and gone back to equipping struct rq with the cpu the queue is associated with since this makes the patch much easier and it is likely that others in the future will have the same difficulty of figuring out which processor owns which runqueue. The overhead added through these patches is a single word on the stack if the kernel is configured to support 32 cpus or less (32 bit). For 32 bit environments the maximum number of cpus that can be configued is 255 which would result in the use of 32 bytes additional on the stack. On IA64 up to 1k cpus can be configured which will result in the use of 128 additional bytes on the stack. The maximum additional cache footprint is one cacheline. Typically memory use will be much less than a cacheline and the additional cpumask will be placed on the stack in a cacheline that already contains other local variable.

When pskb_trim has to defer to ___pksb_trim to trim the frag_list part of the packet, the frag_list is not updated to reflect the trimming. This will usually work fine until you hit something that uses the packet length or tail from the frag_list. Examples include esp_output and ip_fragment. Another problem caused by this is that you can end up with a linear packet with a frag_list attached. It is possible to get away with this if we audit everything to make sure that they always consult skb->len before going down onto frag_list. In fact we can do the samething for the paged part as well to avoid copying the data area of the skb. For now though, let's do the conservative fix and update frag_list. Many thanks to Marco Berizzi for helping me to track down this bug. This 4-year old bug took 3 months to track down. Marco was very patient indeed :) Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
