From: Marcello Maggioni <hayarms@gmail.com> Problem: Some drives (NEC 3500, TDK 1616N, Mad-dog MD-16XDVD9, RICOH MP5163DA, Memorex DVD9 drive and IO-DATA's too for sure), if a CD/DVD is inserted into the tray when the system is booted and if before the OS bootup the BIOS checked for the presence of a bootable CD/DVD into the drive, during the IDE probe phase the drive may result busy and remain so for the next 25/30 seconds . This cause the drive to be skipped during the booting phase and not begin usable until the next reboot (if the reboot goes well and the drive doesn't timeout again). Solution: Rising the timeout time from 10 seconds to 35 seconds (during these 35 seconds every drive should wake up for sure according to the tests I've done).

From: Stuart Hayes <Stuart_Hayes@dell.com> The system can panic with a null pointer dereference using ide-scsi if PIO is being done on scatter gather pages that are in high memory, because page_address() returns 0. We are actually seeing this using a tape drive. This patch will kmap_atomic() the pages before performing PIO. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@elka.pw.edu.pl>

When testing ATAPI PIO data transfer on the ppc64 platform, __atapi_pio_bytes() got zero when sg_dma_len() is used. I checked the <asm-ppc64/scatterlish.h>, the struct scatterlist is defined as: struct scatterlist { struct page *page; unsigned int offset; unsigned int length; /* For TCE support */ u32 dma_address; u32 dma_length; }; #define sg_dma_address(sg) ((sg)->dma_address) #define sg_dma_len(sg) ((sg)->dma_length) So, if the scatterlist is not DMA mapped, sg_dma_len() will return zero on ppc64. The same problem should occur on the x86-64 platform. On the i386 platform, sg_dma_len() returns sg->length, that's why the problem does not occur on an i386. Changes: - Use sg->length if the scatterlist is not DMA mapped (yet). Signed-off-by: Albert Lee <albertcc@tw.ibm.com>

Check if a client passes a NULL callback into an SA query, and if so, never call back. This fixes an oops if someone unloads ib_ipoib and ib_sa in rapid succession. ib_ipoib does an MCMember delete with a NULL callback and 0 timeout on unload, which is usually fine since the delete completes successfully. However, if ib_sa is unloaded immediately afterwards, the delete will be canceled and ib_sa will try to call the (now already unloaded) ib_ipoib module back with the cancel completion, which triggers the oops.

For quite a while, there has existed a hypervisor bug on legacy iSeries which means that we do not get the boot time set in the kernel. This patch works around that bug. This was most noticable when the root partition needed to be checked at every boot as the kernel thought it was some time in 1905 until user mode reset the time correctly.

On PPC64, we keep track of when we need to update jiffies (and the variables used to calculate the time of day) based on the time base. If the time base frequence is sufficiently high compared to the processor clock frequency, then it is possible for the time of day variables to be corrupted at the time of the first decrementer interrupt we take. This became obvious on a legacy iSeries where the time base frequency is the same as the processor clock. This one line patch fixes the initialisation so that the time of day variables and the indicator we use to tell when updates are due are better synchronised.

try_to_unmap_cluster() does: for (pte = pte_offset_map(pmd, address); address < end; pte++, address += PAGE_SIZE) { ... } pte_unmap(pte); It may take a little staring to notice, but pte can actually fall off the end of the pte page in this iteration, which makes life difficult for kmap_atomic() and the users not expecting it to BUG(). Of course, we're somewhat lucky in that arithmetic elsewhere in the function guarantees that at least one iteration is made, lest this force larger rearrangements to be made. This issue and patch also apply to non-mm mainline and with trivial adjustments, at least two related kernels. Discovered during internal testing at Oracle.

The 'if' clause for ULI526X in tulip_mdio_write allows for spin_unlock_irqrestore to be called twice for tp->mii_lock. I believe this is caused by the unintentional omission of a return at the end of that clause. This patch adds that return. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Older UltraSPARC-III chips have a P-Cache bug that makes us disable it by default at boot time. However, this does hurt performance substantially, particularly with memcpy(), and the bug is _incredibly_ obscure. I have never seen it triggered in practice, ever. So provide a "-P" boot option that forces the P-Cache on. It taints the kernel, so if it does trigger and cause some data corruption or OOPS, we will find out in the logs that this option was on when it happened. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
