This also removes the ESPIPE logic from pipes and seq_files, since the VFS layer now supports it.

We need to set the thread priority to medium when entering all exceptions. We may have been executing in low priority (eg the idle loop), but definitely do not want to remain in that priority for the duration of the exception (eg a device interrupt).

Due to speculative execution, a CPU may execute some instructions after the rfid. This makes profiles confusing, since profiling ticks could end up in those instructions following the rfid that are never executed. Add a branch to self after each rfid to avoid this.

- Remove unused includes. - Be consistent about printing irq numbers, avoid a mix of decimal and hexadecimal. - Remove prototypes from xics.c, they should be in xics.h. - Remove infinite loop on failure, and instead use panic. Panic has a chance to log the error message on the LED panel and reboot the box, a while(1) loop does not. - xics isnt compiled for iseries any more, so no need for the CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES hack.

This patch just cleans up arch/ppc64/kernel/pci_dn.c a bit, including: - remove it from the iSeries build completely - small changes to Makefile - remove the "post" parameter from traverse_pci_devices as noone used it - make traverse_all_pci_devices static - remove CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES tests as we no longer build for iSeries - some reformatting (closer to "standard") - remove some of pointer casts This has been built (with default config) on pSeries and pmac and built and run on iSeries.

From: Art Haas <ahaas@airmail.net> The 1.3->1.4 changes to the arch/sparc/lib/copy_user.S file added parenthesis to a number of macros within that file. The BK changlog associated with this change indicate the change was to make the file work with gcc-3.3. When looking at the changes made, I see that similar macros exist in memcpy.S as well, so would a patch adding parens to that file be worthwhile? Also, just what was the problem with gcc-3.3 that was resolved by adding the parenthesis? Macro mis-expansion I'm guessing.

Fix a race identified by Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> journal_unmap_buffer -> __dispose_buffers has the j_list_lock and the jbd_lock_bh_state held. journal_get_write_access calls journal_put_journal_head, which takes jbd_lock_bh_journal_head(bh) and doesn't seem to have any other locks held. Since journal_unmap_buffers trusts the buffer_jbd bit to see if we need to call __dispose_buffer, and nobody seems to test buffer_jbd after taking jbd_lock_bh_journal_head. The kernel dereferences a null jh pointer in __journal_remove_journal_head. The patch fixes this by using journal_grab_journal_head() in journal_unmap_buffer(). It ensures that we either grab and pin the journal_head if the bh has one, or we bale out if the bh doesn't have a journal_head.

Karsten Keil's patch entitled "[ISDN]: Fix kernel PPP/IPPP active/passiv filter code" that went in back in April was an attempt to solve a real problem - namely that the libpcap maintainers have removed useful functionality that pppd was using - but his fix broke existing pppd binaries and IMO didn't end up actually solving the problem. This patch reverts the change to ppp_generic.c so that existing pppd binaries work again. I am going to have to work out a proper fix, which may involve further changes to ppp_generic.c, but I will make sure existing pppd binaries still work.

In the top-level Makefile a number of locale related environment variables were preset to give a small speed up when building the kernel. Unfortunately this had the bad sideeffect that the variable CFLAGS_vmlinux.lds.o lost the exported vaule in some setups (obviously not mine). This smells like a make issue - but the best solution is simply to drop presetting the locale related variables.
