The current cursor interface is confusing. Some fields are taken from the cursor structure in struct fb_info (enable, mask, rop fields) and the rest are taken from the passed cursor structure. These lead to a lot of confusion, making it hard for developers to write their own implementation. Also, the cursor code has several 'short-circuits', occassionally leading to undefined cursor behavior. These are the changes brought about by the patch: - Removed struct fb_cursor and related fields from struct fb_info, and instead, placed them in a struct not visible to fbdev. - The struct fb_cursor passed to fb_cursor() will _always_ contain valid data with various bitflags indicating which fields have changed - The struct fb_pixmap sprite in struct fb_info is used only by drivers with hardware cursor implementation. Initializing and allocating memory for this structure is not needed. Remove initialization and memory allocation. - The FBIO_CURSOR ioctl is broken (because fb_cursor() is broken). For now, remove fb_cursor code and make the FBIO_CURSOR ioctl always return -ENODEV. - The flag FB_CUR_SETCUR is changed to FB_CUR_SETIMAGE, indicating that the cursor sprite has changed. The image change is now checked by fbcon so drivers will not unnecessarily load the sprite image everytime. This causes hardware cursors to flicker, especially in rivafb. - Remove fb_load_cursor_image(). This is unused, and should not be implemented generically. - Documented the usage of the cursor interface in skeletonfb.c Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a new IV mode ''encrypted sector|salt IV'' described in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.device-mapper.dm-crypt/472 To use ESSIV, set the ivmode (using the new syntax) to "essiv:<hash>". "hash" should be a valid cryptoapi hash. This, for example, is a valid dm-target line: 0 200 crypt aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 00000000000000000000000000000000 0 /dev/loop/5 0 Signed-Off-By:

Create crypt_iv_operations structure with generator method and move the plain iv generator into this structure. Optionally accept an extended <sector format> syntax: <cipher>-<chaining mode>-<iv mode> This also makes it ready to support chaining modes other than CBC mode, such as CMC (not implemented in cryptoapi yet), The problems outlined by Adam J. Richter in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.device-mapper.dm-crypt/454 would be fixed by switching to CMC chaining mode.

Change pagevec "nr" and "cold" back to "unsigned long", because <4 byte accesses can be slow on architectures < Pentium III (additional "data16" operand on instruction). This still honours the cacheline alignment, making the size of "pagevec" structure a power of two (either 64 or 128 bytes). Haven't been able to see any significant change on performance on my limited testing. Signed-off-by:

Newer versions of module-init-tools do some locking now which leads to a dead-lock if cpia.c does a request_module("cpia_usb/pp"). The attached patch against 2.6.8 removes the request_module. The problem is actually the same as is documented in debian bug #259056 which was caused by alsa autoloading some oss-modules. So I guess there might be more places in the kernel where this new locking in the module-init-tools might lead to dead-locks. Signed-off-by:Peter Pregler <Peter_Pregler@email.com> Acked-by:

Weak symbol may be unavailable in kernel, but if it is available, its signature should be same as was at the build time. If we do not attach signatures to weak symbols, kernel is tainted when such module is loaded. vmmon: no version for "sys_ioctl" found: kernel tainted. I also believe that it is safer to add & check signatures here - module wants either sys_ioctl with right signature, or no sys_ioctl at all, not sys_ioctl with different signature (which signals that there is some misbuild occuring).

Each md personality keeps a list of devices that are currently active in the array (mdk_rdev_t). As these can potentially be removed at any time, some locking is needed when accessing entries in the list. Currently this involves a spinlock, but all the spinlocking this imposed in unplug_slaves bothered me. So, I have changed it to use rcu locking. This is more appropriate as objects are removed only very rarely, and there is no cost in waiting a little while for a remove to succeed. Also, all changes to the list of devices are performed by the per-array thread (calling md_check_recovery) and so are completely single threaded, so no locking between writers is needed at all. Finally, devices are never added or removed while resync is happening, so resync doesn't need to worry about locking at all. So with this patch, the spinlocking is replaced with rcu read locking and synchronize_kernel. The rcu_read_lock is held while dereferencing a possible device, and the nr_pending count is atomically incremented if the device is to be held outside of the rcu_read_lock. When removing a device, if the nr_pending count appears to be zero, we set the list entry to NULL and call synchronize_kernel(). If the count is still zero after this, we have a safe removal. If it is non-zero, then someone has just started using it so we put the pointer back and fail the removal. When the new user finally drops it's reference, that will cause the per-array thread to wake up again and retry the removal. Signed-off-by:

Both raid1 and multipath have a "retry_list" which is global, so all raid1 arrays (for example) us the same list. This is rather ugly, and it is simple enough to make it per-array, so this patch does that. It also changes to multipath code to use list.h lists instead of roll-your-own. Signed-off-by:

Following are 7 patches for md They all grew out of a desire to redo the locking in unplug_slave. Getting and dropping a spinlock so often for very little gain (it would be nearly impossible to lose the relevant race) really bothered me. I finally figured that I could reply it with rcu locking which is very light wait, and quite up to the task. One the way I found an number of inconsistencies that needed cleaning up and even a few bugs to fix. The first 6 patches deal with these inconsistencies and bugs. The last redoes the locking for adding/removing/accessing devices within md personalities. This patch: md_flush_all() isn't needed as each personality defines its own issue_flush_fn. Signed-off-by:

The following patch against the latest mm fixes several problems with active_load_balance(). Rather than starting with the highest allowable domain (SD_LOAD_BALANCE is still set) and depending on the order of the cpu groups, we start at the lowest domain and work up until we find a suitable CPU or run out of options (SD_LOAD_BALANCE is no longer set). This is a more robust approach as it is more explicit and not subject to the construction order of the cpu groups. We move the test for busiest_rq->nr_running <=1 into the domain loop so we don't continue to try and move tasks when there are none left to move. This new logic (testing for nr_running in the domain loop) should make the busiest_rq==target_rq condition really impossible, so we have replaced the graceful continue on fail with a BUG_ON. (Bjorn Helgaas, please confirm) We eliminate the exclusion of the busiest_cpu's group from the pool of available groups to push to as it is the ideal group to push to, even if not very likely to be available. Note that by removing the test for group==busy_group and allowing it to also be tested for suitability, the running time is nearly the same. We no longer force the destination CPU to be in a group of completely idle CPUs, nor to be the last in that group. Signed-off-by:

The number of times schedule() left the processor idle in the /proc/schedstat (runqueue.sched_goidle) seems to be wrong. The schedule() statistics should satisfy the equation: sched_cnt == sched_noswitch + sched_switch + sched_goidle (http://eaglet.rain.com/rick/linux/schedstat/v10/format-10.html) The below patch fix this, and I have confirmed to be fixed with: # grep ^cpu /proc/schedstat | awk '{print $6+$7+$9, $8}' Acked-by:

A large number of processes that are pinned to a single CPU results in every other CPU's load_balance() seeing this overloaded CPU as "busiest", yet move_tasks() never finds a task to pull-migrate. This condition occurs during module unload, but can also occur as a denial-of-service using sys_sched_setaffinity(). Several hundred CPUs performing this fruitless load_balance() will livelock on the busiest CPU's runqueue lock. A smaller number of CPUs will livelock if the pinned task count gets high. This simple patch remedies the more common first problem: after a move_tasks() failure to migrate anything, the balance_interval increments. Using a simple increment, vs. the more dramatic doubling of the balance_interval, is conservative and yet also effective. Signed-off-by:
