This patch supplies an device so that ibmvscsic will actually have its probe routine called and so allow ti to actually initialise on (legacy) iSeries machines. It also adds a device for the virtual console (for consistency only at the moment). Signed-off-by:

There have been reports of problems running UP ppc64 kernels where the kernel would die in the floating point save/restore code. It turns out kernel threads that call exec (and so become user tasks) do not have a valid thread.regs. This means init (pid 1) does not, it also means anything called out of exec_usermodehelper does not. Once that task has forked (eg init), then the thread.regs in the new task is correctly set. On UP do lazy save/restore of floating point regs. The SLES9 init is doing floating point (the debian version of init appears not to). The lack of thread.regs in init combined with the fact that it does floating point leads to our lazy FP save/restore code blowing up. There were other places where this problem exhibited itself in weird and interesting ways. If a task being exec'ed out of a kernel thread used more than 1MB of stack, it would be terminated due to the checks in arch/ppc64/mm/fault.c (looking for a valid thread.regs when extending the stack). We had a test case using the tux webserver that was failing due to this. Since we zero all registers in ELF_PLAT_INIT, I removed the extra memset in start_thread32. Signed-off-by:

The Spurious interrupt assignment for OpenPIC was the constant, OPENPIC_VEC_SPURIOUS plus the offset passed in. Due to bugs in some OpenPICs, the end value needed to be 255 on those systems. However, the constant was then chosen to be 239, because offset on most systems is 16. The 85xx has an offset of 64, however, and so this assignment caused lock-ups during boot. The proposed solution is to declare OPENPIC_VEC_SPURIOUS to be 255, and use that value directly, instead of adding the offset to it. Signed-off-by:

This patch arranges driver order in 'driver/video/Makefile' so it closely, but not exactly, follows the previous order in 'drivers/video/fbmem.c'. Signed-off-by:

This patch places 'video/i810/' after 'char/' in drivers/Makefile. This order change makes it unnecessary for i810fb to explicitly call agp_intel_init(). This is untested, as I don't have any i810 hardware anymore, but I believe it will work. If it does, the ugly 'early initialization hack' in drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.c:agp_intel_init() can be removed (haven't done it yet). Signed-off-by:

Fix fbcon's setup routine so usage is consistent with previous kernels. Ie: video=ofonly and video=xxxfb:off should work. This is done by fb_get_options() returning a nonzero value if: - 'off' option is present - 'ofonly' is present but driver name is not 'offb' All drivers will not proceed with their initialization if return value is nonzero.

From: Michal Januszewski <spock@gentoo.org> "The latest changes introduced to the fb structs in linux/fb.h make compilation of userspace programs break with: include/linux/fb.h:305: error: field `modelist' has incomplete type This is caused by struct list_head not being seen from userspace." This patch removes struct list_head modelist from struct fb_monspecs and moves it to struct fb_info instead, and for now, enclosed struct fb_monspecs by #ifdef __KERNEL__/#endif. Signed-off-by:

A few cleanups that probably should have been done a long time ago: o remove test program from mmtimer.h o move name, desc., etc. #defines from mmtimer.h to mmtimer.c o document what mmtimer.c is a little better o some whitespace cleanups for linewrapping and such Signed-off-by:

This optimisation data=journal isn't working right, because journalled-data pages are not marked dirty when they are dirty against the journal. Hence I_DIRTY_PAGES doesn't get set hence we can fail to sync the file under some circumstances. Signed-off-by:

Get rid of IO_TOKEN_TO_ADDR() and IO_ADDR_TO_TOKEN() for pSeries EEH; the conversion to tokens is not needed now that we have __iomem annotations to prevent drivers from dereferencing IO addresses. The IO tokens meant that the __raw_ IO accesses wouldn't have worked, and removing the debugging vestiges simplifies the code noticeably. Signed-off-by:

- Change ntfs_{external_,}attr_find() to return 0 on success, -ENOENT if the attribute is not found, and -EIO on real error. In the case of -ENOENT, the search context is updated to describe the attribute before which the attribute being searched for would need to be inserted if such an action were to be desired and in the case of ntfs_external_attr_find() the search context is also updated to indicate the attribute list entry before which the attribute list entry of the attribute being searched for would need to be inserted if such an action were to be desired. Also make ntfs_find_attr() static and remove its prototype from attrib.h as it is not used anywhere other than attrib.c. Update ntfs_attr_lookup() and all callers of ntfs_{external,}attr_{find,lookup}() for the new return values. - Force use of ntfs_attr_find() in ntfs_attr_lookup() when searching for the attribute list attribute itself.
