Commit ed7b1889 removed page.h from include/asm-generic/Kbuild so that it shouldn't get exported. However, it was redundantly listed in asm-mn10300/Kbuild and asm-x86/Kbuild too. Remove those as well, so it really stops being exported on those architectures. Also remove the redundant listing of ptrace.h and termios.h from mn10300.

If the radix_tree_preload() fails, we need to destroy the inode we just read in before trying again. This could leak xfs_vnode structures when there is memory pressure. Noticed by Christoph Hellwig.

wakeups Idle state is not being detected properly by the xfsaild push code. The current idle state is detected by an empty list which may never happen with mostly idle filesystem or one using lazy superblock counters. A single dirty item in the list that exists beyond the push target can result repeated looping attempting to push up to the target because it fails to check if the push target has been acheived or not. Fix by considering a dirty list with everything past the target as an idle state and set the timeout appropriately.

NFS and SELinux worked together previously because SELinux had NFS specific knowledge built in. This design was approved by both groups back in 2004 but the recent NFS changes to use nfs_parsed_mount_data and the usage of nfs_clone_mount_data showed this to be a poor fragile solution. This patch fixes the NFS functionality regression by making use of the new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to explicitly set its own mount options. The explicit setting of mount options is done in the nfs get_sb functions which are called before the generic vfs hooks try to set mount options for filesystems which use text mount data. This does not currently support NFSv4 as that functionality did not exist in previous kernels and thus there is no regression. I will be adding the needed code, which I believe to be the exact same as the v3 code, in nfs4_get_sb for 2.6.26.

Introduce new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to deal with their own mount options. This includes a new string parsing function exported from the LSM that an FS can use to get a security data blob and a new security data blob. This is particularly useful for an FS which uses binary mount data, like NFS, which does not pass strings into the vfs to be handled by the loaded LSM. Also fix a BUG() in both SELinux and SMACK when dealing with binary mount data. If the binary mount data is less than one page the copy_page() in security_sb_copy_data() can cause an illegal page fault and boom. Remove all NFSisms from the SELinux code since they were broken by past NFS changes.

Fix the following warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xfe6711): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_unregister_driver() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_cpu_notifier WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xfe68af): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_register_driver() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_cpu_notifier WARNING: vmlinux.o(.exit.text+0xc4fa): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_stats_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier The warnings were casued by references to unregister_hotcpu_notifier() from normal functions or exit functions. This is flagged by modpost as a potential error because it does not know that for the non HOTPLUG_CPU scenario the unregister_hotcpu_notifier() is a nop. Silence the warning by replacing the __initdata annotation with a __refdata annotation. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk>

For qla4xxx, we could be starting a session, but some error (network, target, IO from a device that got started, etc) could cause the session to fail and curring the block/unblock and state manipulation could race with each other. This patch just has those operations done in the single threaded iscsi eh work queue, so that way they are serialized.

The host reset callout could be starting to reset the hba at the same time the dpc thread is. This creates lots of problems because they both want to do wierd things with the firmware and interrupts, etc. This patch just has the host reset function fully shutdown the dpc thread before resetting the hba. This patch also moves the setting of the session online bit to fix a potential race with the dpc thread and iscsi recovery thread.

This addresses the recent ATI SB600 errata, where the hardware does not like 256-length PRD entries during FPDMA (aka NCQ). It hurts performance on SB600, but it is more important to get a correct patch eliminating the data corruption/lockups, and then later on tune for performance. We simply limit each command to a maximum of 255 sectors, on SB600. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

IPL from NSS didn't work because the memory detection routine omits any memory sections with a size lower than what MAX_ORDER defines. This causes the detection routine to skip the first memory segment which has a size of 1MB. Which later on will let the kernel think that there is no memory available at all. Since in addition the z/VM memory increment size is 1MB force MAX_ORDER to be 9, so we can support 1MB segments.

Using the /proc/dasd/devices interface leaves the reference counter of alias devices in an inconsistent state. A process that tries to set such a device offline afterwards will hang.

When a request fails that was started on an alias device then the first recovery step is to retry it on the base device. If the recovery request fails again with the same symptoms, the next step should not be a simple retry, but should be a proper recovery based on sense data, etc. To do so, the dasd recovery functions need to recognize the alias recovery step in the erp chain by comparing the start devices.

From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Based upon a patch by Marcel Wappler: This patch fixes a DHCP issue of the kernel: some DHCP servers (i.e. in the Linksys WRT54Gv5) are very strict about the contents of the DHCPDISCOVER packet they receive from clients. Table 5 in RFC2131 page 36 requests the fields 'ciaddr' and 'siaddr' MUST be set to '0'. These DHCP servers ignore Linux kernel's DHCP discovery packets with these two fields set to '255.255.255.255' (in contrast to popular DHCP clients, such as 'dhclient' or 'udhcpc'). This leads to a not booting system. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
