The 40-bit DMA workaround recently implemented for 5714, 5715, and
5780 needs to be expanded because there may be other tg3 devices
behind the EPB Express to PCIX bridge in the 5780 class device.For example, some 4-port card or mother board designs have 5704 behind
the 5714.All devices behind the EPB require the 40-bit DMA workaround.
Thanks to Chris Elmquist again for reporting the problem and testing
the patch.Signed-off-by: Michael Chan

If the AX.25 dialect chosen by the sysadmin is set to DAMA master / 3
(or DAMA slave / 2, if CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE=n) ax25_kick() will fall
through the switch statement without calling ax25_send_iframe() or any
other function that would eventually free skbn thus leaking the packet.Fix by restricting the sysctl inferface to allow only actually supported
AX.25 dialects.The system administration mistake needed for this to happen is rather
unlikely, so this is an uncritical hole.Coverity #651.

VIDEO_CX88_ALSA should not be between VIDEO_CX88_DVB and
VIDEO_CX88_DVB_ALL_FRONTENDSWhen cx88-alsa was added to cx88/Kconfig, it was added in between
VIDEO_CX88_DVB and VIDEO_CX88_DVB_ALL_FRONTENDS. This caused
undesireable effects to the appearance of the menu options in
menuconfig.This fix reorders cx88-alsa and cx88-dvb in Kconfig, to match saa7134,
and restore the correct menuconfig appearance.Signed-off-by: Michael Krufky

From Dave Johnson :
sb1250_gettimeoffset() simply reads the current cpu 0 timer remaining
value, however once this counter reaches 0 and the interrupt is raised,
it immediately resets and begins to count down again.If sb1250_gettimeoffset() is called on cpu 1 via do_gettimeofday() after
the timer has reset but prior to cpu 0 processing the interrupt and
taking write_seqlock() in timer_interrupt() it will return a full value
(or close to it) causing time to jump backwards 1ms. Once cpu 0 handles
the interrupt and timer_interrupt() gets far enough along it will jump
forward 1ms.Fix this problem by implementing mips_hpt_*() on sb1250 using a spare
timer unrelated to the existing periodic interrupt timers. It runs at
1Mhz with a full 23bit counter. This eliminated the custom
do_gettimeoffset() for sb1250 and allowed use of the generic
fixed_rate_gettimeoffset() using mips_hpt_*() and timerhi/timerlo.Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

From Dave Johnson :
* do_timer() expects the arch-specific handler to take the lock as it
modifies jiffies[_64] and xtime.
* writing timerhi/lo in timer_interrupt() will mess up
fixed_rate_gettimeoffset() which reads timerhi/lo.Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

If a call to set_io_port_base() was being followed by usage of
mips_io_port_base in the same function gcc was possibly using the old
value due to some clever abuse of const. Adding a barrier will keep
the optimization and result in correct code with latest gcc.Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

Lee Revell reported 28ms latency when process with lots of swapped memory
exits.2.6.15 introduced a latency regression when unmapping: in accounting the
zap_work latency breaker, pte_none counted 1, pte_present PAGE_SIZE, but a
swap entry counted nothing at all. We think of pages present as the slow
case, but Lee's trace shows that free_swap_and_cache's radix tree lookup
can make a lot of work - and we could have been doing it many thousands of
times without a latency break.Move the zap_work update up to account swap entries like pages present.
This does account non-linear pte_file entries, and unmap_mapping_range
skipping over swap entries, by the same amount even though they're quick:
but neither of those cases deserves complicating the code (and they're
treated no worse than they were in 2.6.14).Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins

A user can use nfsservctl() to spam the logs.
This can happen because the arguments to the nfsservctl() system call are
versioned. This is a good thing. However, when a bad version is detected,
the kernel prints a message and then returns an error.Signed-off-by: Peter Staubach

The dm-stripe target currently does not enforce that the size of a stripe
device be a multiple of the chunk-size. Under certain conditions, this can
lead to I/O requests going off the end of an underlying device. This
test-case shows one example.echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 0" | dmsetup create linear0
echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 100" | dmsetup create linear1
echo "0 200 striped 2 32 /dev/mapper/linear0 0 /dev/mapper/linear1 0" | \
dmsetup create stripe0
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/stripe0 bs=1kThis will produce the output:
dd: writing '/dev/mapper/stripe0': Input/output error
97+0 records in
96+0 records outAnd in the kernel log will be:
attempt to access beyond end of device
dm-0: rw=0, want=104, limit=100The patch will check that the table size is a multiple of the stripe
chunk-size when the table is created, which will prevent the above striped
device from being created.This should not affect tools like LVM or EVMS, since in all the cases I can
think of, striped devices are always created with the sizes being a
multiple of the chunk-size.The size of a stripe device must be a multiple of its chunk-size.

Bryce reported a bug wherein offlining CPU0 (on x86 box) and then
subsequently onlining it resulted in a lockup.On x86, CPU0 is never offlined. The subsequent attempt to online CPU0
doesn't take that into account. It actually tries to bootup the already
booted CPU. Following patch fixes the problem (as acknowledged by Bryce).
Please consider for inclusion in 2.6.16.Check if cpu is already online.
