The PCI IRQ map for the old Motorola PowerStackII (Utah) boards was incorrect, but this breakage wasn't exposed until 2.5, and finally fixed until recently by Sebastian Heutling <sheutlin@gmx.de>.

We recently found a problem that was causing memory corruption during boot on IBM POWER5 machines. The problem was that the if you have a USB keyboard and it is set to the input device for the firmware, it will still be active when the kernel is started. That means that the OHCI controller has pointers to various memory areas that it polls for transfers to do. When we start using that same memory in the kernel, bad things can happen. (This isn't a problem on powermacs because the Apple OF implements a "quiesce" call which turns off all the devices it is using.) This patch fixes the problem by calling the Open Firmware "close" method for the input device. Stephen Rothwell and I have verified that doing this fixes the problem on the POWER5 machine where we observed it. I verified that this patch doesn't cause any problems on powermacs. I think this patch should go into 2.6.10 since it fixes a nasty memory corruption bug that can cause rather subtle and hard-to-diagnose problems during boot. (The symptom on the POWER5 machine with the particular kernel that we were using was that reading /proc/net/tcp would oops, due to one of the pointers in tcp_ehash being corrupted.)

The PowerMac specific sleep code in the OHCI USB driver used to call disable/enable irq, which is no longer necessary and actually clashes with the calls to free/request_irq that the common OHCI code now does, thus causing WARN_ON's to trigger each time a PowerBook is woken up from sleep.

Santiago Leon authored
There's a chance that the receive buffers are being consumed at the same rate as they are being replenished in ibmveth_replenish_task()... Meanwhile, the calls to schedule_replenishing() from ibmveth_poll() won't schedule another replenishing cycle (because the not_replenishing flag is zero), starving the buffers and making the adapter unable to receive packets unless the module is reloaded... Here's a small patch that will fix it by scheduling another replenishing task after toggling the not_replenishing flag.

Marc Singer authored
Patch from Marc Singer Add support for the LPD7a40x implementation of the SMC91x ethernet controller. This patch exists to work around a mismatch between the way the LH7a40x CPUs handle chip selects and what the ethernet controller expects. This patch has been revised to eliminate masking of interrupts. The concessions are that a) the ISR must perform an IOBARRIER before the first access to the chip, just in case the interrupt occurred while the driver was writing to the chip b) other drivers that use the same chip select region as the SMC chip must perform a similar IOBARRIER at the top of their ISRs.

Some time ago, a patch was merged that removed pci_save_state() and pci_restore_state() from various ALSA drivers. That patch also added pci_restore_state() to sound/core/init.c but didn't add pci_save_state() anywhere. This is needed since the core pci handling doesn't do this for us anymore. My laptop doesn't resume (gets what I assume is an ACPI timeout and hangs solid) without this small obvious patch.

We have to load the bigkernel second TLB entry on secondary processors before we move over the use the kernel trap table. Otherwise we can take a TLB miss somewhere in the post-4MB area and the TLB handler is not prepared to service that. The case that usually occurs is the prom_set_trap_table call made by trampoline.S, since p1275buf usually sits very near the end of the kernel image. It worked by luck most of the time as long as p1275buf sits within a single page since earlier code running in trampoline.S forced that TLB entry to be loaded by the OBP TLB miss handler. This was not fun to figure out. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

sysfs_dir_close did not free the "cursor" sysfs_dirent used for keeping track of position in the list of sysfs_dirent nodes. Consequently, doing a "find /sys" would leak a sysfs_dirent for each of the 1140 directories in my /sys tree, or about 36kB each time. From: "Adam J.

proc_pid_status dereferences pointers in the task structure even if the task is already dead. This is probably the reason for the oops described in http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3812 The attached patch removes the pointer dereferences by using pid_alive() for testing that the task structure contents is still valid before dereferencing them. The task structure itself is guaranteed to be valid - we hold a reference count.

Timothy Lee reports: Hardware: CyberBlade/i1 on VIA Epia-800 Problem Description: When the framebuffer is set to 16 bpp, console's text colours are incorrect. For example, white becomes yellow, black becomes blue, etc. Steps to reproduce: 1. Load tridentfb 2. Use "setterm -n -depth 16" to request 16 bpp framebuffer The problem arose from the fact that each psuedo palette entry should be 32-bit in size, even under 16-bit display mode.

This change brings the semantics equivalent to 2.4 and also to what the man page says; Also optimises by avoiding unneeded lookup in uid cache, when who is same as the current->uid. sys_set/getpriority is rewritten in 2.5/2.6, perhaps while transitioning to the pid maps. It has now semantical bug, when uid is zero.

This patch avoids a deadlock on rtnl_sem in smc_close() when bringing down an smc91x interface. The semaphore is already held by devinet_ioctl() and the pending work queue contains linkwatch_event() (scheduled by netif_carrier_off()) which also wants rtnl_sem hence it is unsafe to call flush_scheduled_work(). The solution is to track whether we have any pending work of our own and wait for that instead of flushing the entire queue. I also fixed a typo 'ence' -> 'Hence' and renamed smc_detect_phy to smc_phy_detect in order to follow the same pattern as the other smc_phy_* functions.
