BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/435958 The module alias currently matches any Acer computer but when loaded the BIOS checks will only succeed on Aspire One models. This causes a invalid BIOS warning for all other models (seen on Aspire 4810T). This is not fatal but worries users that see this message.

2009-12-24ACPI: do not select ACPI_DOCK from ATA_ACPICarlos R. Mafra
In March 2008 commit 0ac4a3c2fbbcadc3e96e4dc47d4ae802d66e6f67 ("ACPI: fix ATA_ACPI build") made CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK be selected by CONFIG_ATA_ACPI because of a build error when CONFIG_ATA_ACPI=y and CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK=m. However, in September 2008 commit 898b054f3eec5921320ae8614b5bdd7b07ea5b43 ("dock: make dock driver not a module") removed the possibility of having CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK=m and therefore there is no need for selecting it when CONFIG_ATA_ACPI=y. This makes the kernel ~5 Kb smaller for people who don't have a dock by allowing them to not have ACPI_DOCK compiled-in because of ATA_ACPI=y. Signed-off-by: Carlos R.

2009-12-22arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c: avoid cross-CPU interrupts by ↵Andrew Morton
using smp_call_function_any() Presently acpi-cpufreq will perform the MSR read on the first CPU in the mask. That's inefficient if that CPU differs from the current CPU. Because we have to perform a cross-CPU call, but we could have run the rdmsr on the current CPU. So switch to using the new smp_call_function_any(), which will perform the call on the current CPU if that CPU is present in the mask (it is).

2009-12-17readahead: add blk_run_backing_devHisashi Hifumi
I added blk_run_backing_dev on page_cache_async_readahead so readahead I/O is unpluged to improve throughput on especially RAID environment. The normal case is, if page N become uptodate at time T(N), then T(N) <= T(N+1) holds. With RAID (and NFS to some degree), there is no strict ordering, the data arrival time depends on runtime status of individual disks, which breaks that formula. So in do_generic_file_read(), just after submitting the async readahead IO request, the current page may well be uptodate, so the page won't be locked, and the block device won't be implicitly unplugged: if (PageReadahead(page)) page_cache_async_readahead() if (!PageUptodate(page)) goto page_not_up_to_date; //... page_not_up_to_date: lock_page_killable(page); Therefore explicit unplugging can help.

2009-12-17rtc: set wakeup capability for I2C and SPI RTC driversAnton Vorontsov
RTC core won't allow wakeup alarms to be set if RTC devices' parent (i.e. i2c_client or spi_device) isn't wakeup capable. For I2C devices there is I2C_CLIENT_WAKE flag exists that we can pass via board info, and if set, I2C core will initialize wakeup capability. For SPI devices there is no such flag at all. I believe that it's not platform code responsibility to allow or disallow wakeups, instead, drivers themselves should set the capability if a device can trigger wakeups. That's what drivers/base/power/sysfs.c says: * It is the responsibility of device drivers to enable (or disable) * wakeup signaling as part of changing device power states, respecting * the policy choices provided through the driver model. I2C and SPI RTC devices send wakeup events via interrupt lines, so we should set the wakeup capability if IRQ is routed. Ideally we should also check irq for wakeup capability before setting device's capability, i.e. if (can_irq_wake(irq)) device_set_wakeup_capable(&client->dev, 1); But there is no can_irq_wake() call exist, and it is not that trivial to implement it for all interrupts controllers and complex/cascaded setups. drivers/base/power/sysfs.c also covers these cases: * Devices may not be able to generate wakeup events from all power * states. Also, the events may be ignored in some configurations; * for example, they might need help from other devices that aren't * active So there is no guarantee that wakeup will actually work, and so I think there is no point in being pedantic wrt checking IRQ wakeup capability.

2009-12-17do_wait() optimization: do not place sub-threads on task_struct->children listOleg Nesterov
Thanks to Roland who pointed out de_thread() issues. Currently we add sub-threads to ->real_parent->children list. This buys nothing but slows down do_wait(). With this patch ->children contains only main threads (group leaders). The only complication is that forget_original_parent() should iterate over sub-threads by hand, and de_thread() needs another list_replace() when it changes ->group_leader. Henceforth do_wait_thread() can never see task_detached() && !EXIT_DEAD tasks, we can remove this check (and we can unify do_wait_thread() and ptrace_do_wait()). This change can confuse the optimistic search in mm_update_next_owner(), but this is fixable and minor. Perhaps badness() and oom_kill_process() should be updated, but they should be fixed in any case.

It can happen that write does not use all the blocks allocated in write_begin either because of some filesystem error (like ENOSPC) or because page with data to write has been removed from memory.

Sorry, badly out-of-order cherry-pick from old queue. PS: there's a large pending series reworking the refcounting and lifetime rules for vfsmounts that will, among other things, allow to rip a subtree away _without_ dissolving connections in it, to be garbage-collected when all active references are gone. It's considerably saner wrt "is the subtree busy" logics, but it's nowhere near being ready for merge at the moment; this changeset is one of the things becoming possible with that sucker, but it certainly shouldn't have been picked during this cycle.
