2006-06-23[SPARC64]: Convert sparc64 PCI layer to in-kernel device tree.David S. Miller
One thing this change pointed out was that we really should pull the "get 'local-mac-address' property" logic into a helper function all the network drivers can call. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-06-23[SPARC64]: Fix for Niagara memory corruption.David S. Miller
On some sun4v systems, after netboot the ethernet controller and it's DMA mappings can be left active. The net result is that the kernel can end up using memory the ethernet controller will continue to DMA into, resulting in corruption. To deal with this, we are more careful about importing IOMMU translations which OBP has left in the IO-TLB. If the mapping maps into an area the firmware claimed was free and available memory for the kernel to use, we demap instead of import that IOMMU entry. This is going to cause the network chip to take a PCI master abort on the next DMA it attempts, if it has been left going like this. All tests show that this is handled properly by the PCI layer and the e1000 drivers. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-06-23[PATCH] Kill PF_SYNCWRITE flagJens Axboe
A process flag to indicate whether we are doing sync io is incredibly ugly. It also causes performance problems when one does a lot of async io and then proceeds to sync it. Part of the io will go out as async, and the other part as sync. This causes a disconnect between the previously submitted io and the synced io. For io schedulers such as CFQ, this will cause us lost merges and suboptimal behaviour in scheduling. Remove PF_SYNCWRITE completely from the fsync/msync paths, and let the O_DIRECT path just directly indicate that the writes are sync by using WRITE_SYNC instead.

2006-06-23[PATCH] JBD: split checkpoint listsJan Kara
Split the checkpoint list of the transaction into two lists. In the first list we keep the buffers that need to be submitted for IO. In the second list are kept buffers that were already submitted and we just have to wait for the IO to complete. This should simplify a handling of checkpoint lists a bit and can eventually be also a performance gain.

free blocks counter The percpu counter data type are changed in this set of patches to support more users like ext3 who need more than 32 bit to store the free blocks total in the filesystem. - Generic perpcu counters data type changes. The size of the global counter and local counter were explictly specified using s64 and s32. The global counter is changed from long to s64, while the local counter is changed from long to s32, so we could avoid doing 64 bit update in most cases. - Users of the percpu counters are updated to make use of the new percpu_counter_init() routine now taking an additional parameter to allow users to pass the initial value of the global counter.

2006-06-23[PATCH] ptrace: document the locking rulesEric W. Biederman
After a lot of reading the code and thinking about how it behaves I have managed to figure out what the current ptrace locking rules are. The current code is in much better that it appears at first glance. The troublesome code paths are actually the code paths that violate the current rules. ptrace uses simple exclusive access as it's locking. You can only touch task->ptrace if the task is stopped and you are the ptracer, or if the task is running and are the task itself. Very simple, very easy to maintain. It just needs to be documented so people know not to touch ptrace from elsewhere. Currently we do have a few pieces of code that are in violation of this rule. Particularly the core dump code, and ptrace_attach. But so far the code looks fixable. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-06-23[PATCH] vfs: add lock owner argument to flush operationMiklos Szeredi
Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation. This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks internally. FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some network filesystems would need this also. Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking request in this case.

2006-06-23[PATCH] x86: kernel irq balance doesn't workZhang Yanmin
On i386, kernel irq balance doesn't work. 1) In function do_irq_balance, after kernel finds the min_loaded cpu but before calling set_pending_irq to really pin the selected_irq to the target cpu, kernel does a cpus_and with irq_affinity[selected_irq]. Later on, when the irq is acked, kernel would calls move_native_irq=>desc->handler->set_affinity to change the irq affinity. However, every function pointed by hw_interrupt_type->set_affinity(unsigned int irq, cpumask_t cpumask) always changes irq_affinity[irq] to cpumask. Next time when recalling do_irq_balance, it has to do cpu_ands again with irq_affinity[selected_irq], but irq_affinity[selected_irq] already becomes one cpu selected by the first irq balance. 2) Function balance_irq in file arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c has the same issue.

2006-06-23[PATCH] Au1550/1200: add missing PSC #define's, make OSS driver use the ↵Sergei Shtylyov
proper ones Add missing PSC #define's required for the drivers using PSC on DBAu1550 board (also fixing Au1550 PSC3 address) and all Au1200-based boards as well. Make the OSS driver use the correct PSC definitions fo each board.
