* [POWERPC] Xilinx: hwicap: Verify sync before reading idcode.Stephen Neuendorffer2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears that in some cases, the sync word might not be recognized by the hardware correctly. If this happens, then attempting to read from the port results in an unrecoverable error because of the design of the FPGA core. This patch updates the code to check the status of the device before reading the IDCODE, in order to avoid entering this unrecoverable state. This patch also adds additional NOOP commands into the sychronization sequence, which appears to be necessary to avoid the condition on some hardware.

* [POWERPC] Xilinx: hwicap: Refactor status handling code.Stephen Neuendorffer2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | Both the buffer-based and fifo-based icap cores have a status register. Previously, this was only used internally to check whether transactions have completed. However, the status can be useful to the main driver as well. This patch exposes these status functions to the main driver along with some masks for the differnet bits.

* [POWERPC] 4xx: Add 460EX PCIe support to 4xx pci driverStefan Roese2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All this code is needed to properly initialize the 460EX PCIe host bridge(s). We re-initialize all ports again, even though this has been done in the bootloader (U-Boot) before. This way we make sure, that we always run the latest init code in Linux and don't depend on code versions from U-Boot. Unfortunately all IBM/AMCC chips currently supported in this PCIe driver need a different reset-/init-sequence. Tested on AMCC Canyonlands eval board.

* [POWERPC] Start removing linux,network-index in favour of aliasesDavid Gibson2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch alters the bootwrapper for a number of machines (roubhly all 4xx based cuboot or treeboot platforms) to use aliases instead of the linux,network-index hack to work out which MAC address to attach to which ethernet device node. The now obsolete linux,network-index properties are removed from the corresponding device trees. This won't break backwards compatiblity, because in cases where this fixup code is relevant, the device tree is part of the kernel image. The references to linux,network-index are removed from booting-without-of.txt. Not only is it now deprecated, but as a hack applicable only when the device tree blob and fixup code were in the same image, this property never belonged in booting-without-of.txt which describes the interface between the kernel and firmware or bootloaders which produce a device tree. By the time the device tree reaches the kernel, all the MAC addresses must be fully filled in.

A (partial) datasheet for this chip eventually turned up, letting us see how to make it use a VIA-specific register to switch over to the the normal 10us value instead, as suggested by the EHCI specification Solution noted by Lev A. Melnikovsky. It's not clear whether this register exists on other VIA chips; we know that it's ineffective on the vt8235.

The function grab locks of the same lock classes triggering the warning. The first lock grabbed is for the constant reserved areas that is never accessed after early boot. Technically you could do without grabbing the locks for the "from" structure its copying reserved areas from. But dropping the from locks to me looks wrong, even though it would be ok. The affected code only runs in early boot as its setting up the DMAR engines. This patch gives the reserved_ioval_list locks special lockdep classes.

These events aren't masked by the driver, and the unexpected interrupts will cause a sequence of failed reset attempts util libata's EH finally gives up. This has not been a common problem so far, but the pending libata hardreset-by-default changes makes it a critical issue. The solution is to disable hotplug events before a reset, and to reenable them afterwards. (Promise's driver does this too.) This patch adds SATA-specific versions of ->freeze() and ->thaw() that also disable and enable hotplug events. PATA ports continue to use the old versions of ->freeze() and ->thaw(). Accesses to the hotplug register must be serialised via host->lock. We rely on ap->lock == &ap->host->lock and that libata takes this lock before ->freeze() and ->thaw(). Document this requirement. The interrupt handler is adjusted so its hotplug register accesses are inside the region protected by host->lock. Tested on various chips (SATA300TX4, SATA300TX2plus, SATAII150TX4, FastTrack TX4000) with various combinations of SATA and PATA disks, with and without the pending hardreset-by-default changes.

QSI cdrom attached to pata_sis as secondary master appears as phantom device for the slave. Interestingly, instead of not setting DRQ after IDENTIFY which triggers NODEV_HINT, it aborts both IDENTIFY and IDENTIFY PACKET which makes EH retry. Modify EH such that it assumes no device is attached if both flavors of IDENTIFY are aborted by the device. There really isn't much point in retrying when the device actively aborts the commands. While at it, convert NODEV detection message to ata_dev_printk() to help debugging obscure detection problems. This problem was reported by Jan Bücken.

| | * | | kbuild: soften modpost checks when doing cross buildsSam Ravnborg2008-03-23
| | | |/ | | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The module alias support in the kernel have a consistency check where it is checked that the size of a structure in the kernel and on the build host are the same. For cross builds this check does not make sense so detect when we do cross builds and silently skip the check in these situations. This fixes a build bug for a wireless driver when cross building for arm.

| * | | Make printk() console semaphore accesses sensibleLinus Torvalds2008-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The printk() logic on when/how to get the console semaphore was unreadable, this splits the code up into a few helper functions and makes it easier to follow what is going on.

| * | | bsd_acct: using task_struct->tgid is not right in pid-namespacesPavel Emelyanov2008-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case we're accounting from a sub-namespace, the tgids reported will not refer to the right namespace. Save the pid_namespace we're accounting in on the acct_glbs and use it in do_acct_process. Two less :) places using the task_struct.tgid member.

| * | | bsd_acct: plain current->real_parent access is not always safePavel Emelyanov2008-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is minor, but dereferencing even current real_parent is not safe on debug kernels, since the memory, this points to, can be unmapped - RCU protection is required. Besides, the tgid field is deprecated and is to be replaced with task_tgid_xxx call (the 2nd patch), so RCU will be required anyway.

This problem is notable especially when the system scans through many unfreeable pages, causing unnecessary stalls in the VM. Additionally, tasks without __GFP_FS or __GFP_IO in the direct reclaim path will sleep if a significant number of pages are encountered that should be written out. This gives kswapd a chance to write out those pages, while the direct reclaim task sleeps.

Text specific to Intel hardware is now at the end. - Kconfig now references the Documentation/hw_random.txt file and better explains what this really does. Both chunks of documentation now higlight the fact that the kernel entropy pool is maintained by "rngd", and this driver has nothing directly to do with that important task.

| * | | smackfs: remove redundant lock, fix open(,O_RDWR)Ahmed S. Darwish2008-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Older smackfs was parsing MAC rules by characters, thus a need of locking write sessions on open() was needed. This lock is no longer useful now since each rule is handled by a single write() call. This is also a bugfix since seq_open() was not called if an open() O_RDWR flag was given, leading to a seq_read() without an initialized seq_file, thus an Oops. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.
