In current 2.6.23-rc1+git, make bootimage gives the following warnings while compiling objstrip.c. The patch below fixes these warnings by casting strncmp argument to char * - it does not seem feasible to change its type in struct elfhdr.

Revert 7e92b4fc. It broke Sébastien Dugué's machine and Jeff said (persuasively) This seems like it will break decades-long-working stuff, in favor of breaking new ground in our favorite area, "trusting the BIOS." It's just not worth it for serial ports, IMO. Serial ports are something that just shouldn't break at this late stage in the game. My new Intel platform boxes don't even have serial ports, so I question the value of messing with serial port probing even more... because... just wait a year, and your box won't have a serial port either! :) I certainly don't object to the use of platform devices (or isa_driver), but the probe change seems questionable. That's sorta analagous to rewriting the floppy driver probe routine. Sure you could do it... but why risk all that damage and go through debugging all over again? It seems clear from this report that we cannot, should not, trust BIOS for something (a) so simple and (b) that has been working for over a decade. Much discussion ensued and we've decided to have another go at all of this.

A succesful downcall with a negative result (which indicates that the given filesystem is not exported to the given user) should not return an error. Currently mountd is depending on stdio to write these downcalls. With some versions of libc this appears to cause subsequent writes to attempt to write all accumulated data (for which writes previously failed) along with any new data. This can prevent the kernel from seeing responses to later downcalls. Symptoms will be that nfsd fails to respond to certain requests. Signed-off-by:

RFC 3530 says: If the server uses an attribute to store the exclusive create verifier, it will signify which attribute by setting the appropriate bit in the attribute mask that is returned in the results. Linux uses the atime and mtime to store the verifier, but sends a zeroed out bitmask back to the client. This patch makes sure that we set the correct bits in the bitmask in this situation.

out_of_memory() may be called when an allocation is failing and the direct reclaim is not making any progress. This does not take into account the requested order of the allocation. If the request if for an order larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER, it is reasonable to fail the allocation because the kernel makes no guarantees about those allocations succeeding. This false OOM situation can occur if a user is trying to grow the hugepage pool in a script like; #!/bin/bash REQUIRED=$1 echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/hugepages_treat_as_movable echo $REQUIRED > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages ACTUAL=`cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages` while [ $REQUIRED -ne $ACTUAL ]; do echo Huge page pool at $ACTUAL growing to $REQUIRED echo $REQUIRED > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages ACTUAL=`cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages` sleep 1 done This is a reasonable scenario when ZONE_MOVABLE is in use but triggers OOM easily on 2.6.23-rc1. This patch will fail an allocation for an order above PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER instead of killing processes and retrying. Signed-off-by:
