Update the ov511 driver to version 1.62: o Update email address o Remove some dead code and fix some harmless typos o New device: Alpha Vision Tech. AlphaCam SE o Fix assignment of ov->proc_button->owner to not cause NULL pointer deref (credit: Oleg K.) o Support I2C read/write ioctl()s via V4L (credit: Oleg K.) o Add OV518-specific register dump code o New snapshot reset sequence; old one was causing erroneous I2C writes (credit: Oleg K.) o OV6630 needs different register 0x14 settings than OV6620 o Don't print palette errors by default o Detect OV518 cameras that have packet numbering enabled by default and set ov->packet_numbering accordingly. This should fix the problems some users were having with babble (USB error -75) and cameras not working at all.

I noticed a kluge had been put into 2.5.35, to cover up *one* of the errors caused by a particular bug that was introduced when Patrick Mochel split up arch/i386/kernel/setup.c: he incorrectly thought the AMD-defined CPUID levels were AMD-specific; they're not -- every other x86 vendors *including* Intel uses them as well. This also adds the "i686" hack for TM5xxx that was added in 2.4 recently.

This patch removes attempts to clear halts on a control endpoint (think about it for a minute if you don't see why this is pointless....) and also adds return-code checks for all places where halts are cleared. This _should_ be just redundant code, but recent tests suggest that this is, in fact, not the case. People should _heavily_ test this patch. I'm going to pause here for a while (in the patch stream) until we've got this sorted out -- initial results on my test setup seem to show some problems still remain. Where those problems are (HCD or usb-storage) remains to be seen.

This patch converts all uses of page_addres() to the sg_address() macro. This will make backporting to 2.4 easier, as well as eliminate lots of redundant code.

This patch removes tests of urb->status for EINPROGRESS. As was pointed out, that's not such a good idea, for a variety of reasons. In the process, a semaphore became useless.

Here's a very simple patch that can go into the source tree right away. It just fixes some occurrences of the scsi result code GOOD to GOOD << 1 in isd200.c.

This fixes a number of sys_execve() problems: - ptrace of thread groups over exec works again. - if the exec() is done in a non-leader thread then we must inherit the parent links properly - otherwise the shell will see an early child-exit notification. - if the exec()-ing thread is detached then make it use SIGCHLD like the leader thread. - wait for the leader thread to become TASK_ZOMBIE properly - wait_task_inactive() alone was not enough. This should be a rare codepath. now sys_execve() from thread groups works as expected in every combination i could test: standalone, from the leader thread, from one of the child threads, ptraced, non-ptraced, SMP and UP.

Attribution goes to Petr Vandrovec for finding and solving this one. You probably read the mail you were cc'ed on, so I'll just mention that this patch makes sure that the irq disabling and enabling is perfectly balanced in the probing path. I've also looked at the multiple irq chain problem you mentioned, and as far as I can see we are never touching the 2nd chain from within the first one. So should be ok. I'm also including the unexpected interrupt prinkt removal.

elevator_linus is seriously broken wrt accounting. Marcelo recently took the patch to fix it in 2.4.20-pre, here's the 2.5 equiv. Right now, we account merges as costly and seeks as not. Only thing that prevents seek starvation is the aging scan. That is broken, very much so. This patch fixes that to account merges and inserts differently. A seek is ELV_LINUS_SEEK_COST more costly than a merge, currently that define is at '16'. Doing the math on a disk, this sort of makes sense. Defaults are read latency of 1024, which means 1024 merges or 64 seeks. Writes are double that.

We are currently wasting ~2MiB on the bio pools. This is ok on systems with plenty of ram, but it's too much for a 16mb system for instance. This patch scales the bio_vec mempool sizes a bit. The logic is mainly: + megabytes = nr_free_pages() >> (20 - PAGE_SHIFT); + if (megabytes <= 16) + scale = 0; + else if (megabytes <= 32) + scale = 1; + else if (megabytes <= 64) + scale = 2; + else if (megabytes <= 96) + scale = 3; + else if (megabytes <= 128) + scale = 4; and then for mempool setup: + if (i >= scale) + pool_entries >>= 1; + + bp->pool = mempool_create(pool_entries, slab_pool_alloc, slab_pool_free, bp->slab); So we allocate less and less entries for the bigger sized pools. It doesn't make too much sense to fill the memory with sg tables for 256 page entries on a 16mb system. In addition, we select a starting nr_pool_entries point, based on amount of ram as well: + pool_entries = megabytes * 2; + if (pool_entries > 256) + pool_entries = 256; The end-result is that on a 128mb system, it looks like: BIO: pool of 256 setup, 14Kb (56 bytes/bio) biovec pool[0]: 1 bvecs: 244 entries (12 bytes) biovec pool[1]: 4 bvecs: 244 entries (48 bytes) biovec pool[2]: 16 bvecs: 244 entries (192 bytes) biovec pool[3]: 64 bvecs: 244 entries (768 bytes) biovec pool[4]: 128 bvecs: 122 entries (1536 bytes) biovec pool[5]: 256 bvecs: 61 entries (3072 bytes) ie a total of ~620KiB used. Booting with mem=32m gives us: BIO: pool of 256 setup, 14Kb (56 bytes/bio) biovec pool[0]: 1 bvecs: 56 entries (12 bytes) biovec pool[1]: 4 bvecs: 28 entries (48 bytes) biovec pool[2]: 16 bvecs: 14 entries (192 bytes) biovec pool[3]: 64 bvecs: 7 entries (768 bytes) biovec pool[4]: 128 bvecs: 3 entries (1536 bytes) biovec pool[5]: 256 bvecs: 1 entries (3072 bytes) ie a total of ~31KiB. Booting with 512mb makes it: BIO: pool of 256 setup, 14Kb (56 bytes/bio) biovec pool[0]: 1 bvecs: 256 entries (12 bytes) biovec pool[1]: 4 bvecs: 256 entries (48 bytes) biovec pool[2]: 16 bvecs: 256 entries (192 bytes) biovec pool[3]: 64 bvecs: 256 entries (768 bytes) biovec pool[4]: 128 bvecs: 256 entries (1536 bytes) biovec pool[5]: 256 bvecs: 256 entries (3072 bytes) which is the same as before. The cut-off point is somewhere a bit over 256mb. Andrew suggested we may want to 'cheat' a bit here, and leave the busy pools alone. We know that mpage is going to be heavy on the 16 entry pool, so it migh make sense to make such a pool and not scale that. We can deal with that later, though.

Linus, please apply. This defines wait_task_inactive() to be a no-op on UP machines, and removes the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP which surrounds current calls. This also fixes compile on UP which was broken by the addition of a call to wait_task_inactive in fs/exec.c which was not protected by an #ifdef.

- Remove defunct active_list/inactive_list declarations (wli) - Update an obsolete comment (wli) - "mm/slab.c contains one leftover from the initial version with 'unsigned short' bufctl entries. The attached patch replaces '2' with the correct sizeof [which is now 4]" - Manfred Spraul - BUG checks for vfree/vunmap being called in interrupt context (because they take irq-unsafe spinlocks, I guess?) - davej - Simplify some coding in one_highpage_init() (Christoph Hellwig).

From Christoph Hellwig, also present in 2.4. Create an arch-independent `dump_stack()' function. So we don't need to do #ifdef CONFIG_X86 show_stack(0); /* No prototype in scope! */ #endif any more. The whole dump_stack() implementation is delegated to the architecture. If it doesn't provide one, there is a default do-nothing library function.

If a GFP_NOFS allocation is made when the ZONE_NORMAL inactive list is full of dirty or under-writeback pages, there is nothing the caller can do to force some page reclaim. The caller ends up getting oom-killed. - In mempool_alloc(), don't try to perform page reclaim again. Just go to sleep and wait for some elements to be returned to the pool. - In try_to_free_pages(): perform a single, short scan of the LRU and if that doesn't work, fail the allocation. GFP_NOFS allocators know how to handle that.

read_pages() is dropping the page refcount before running ->readpage(). Which just happens to work, because the page is in pagecache and locked. But it breaks under some unconventional things which reiser4 is doing, and it's better/safer/saner this way anyway.

Patch from Jani Monoses <jani@iv.ro> "This turns the remaining parts of ext3 to EXT3_SB and turns the latter from a macro to inline function which returns the generic_sbp field of u. linux/fs.h is not touched by this patch though. Intermezzo's three uses of ext3_sb are also not changed."
