Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way
of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along
with the I/O.This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity
metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and
requests that have this extra information attached.See Documentation/block/data-integrity.txt for more information.

Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume path by
preventing the allocations from doing IO and allowing them
to access the emergency pools.These paths are used when a frontend device is trying to connect
to its backend driver over Xenbus. These reconnections are triggered
on demand by IO, so by definition there is already IO underway,
and further IO would naturally deadlock. On resume, this path
is triggered when the running system tries to continue using its
devices. If it cannot then the resume will fail; to try to avoid this
we let it dip into the emergency pools.[ linux-2.6.18-xen changesets e8b49cfbdac, fdb998e79aba ]

Return 0 instead of -EINVAL if the blkfront device is a cdrom,
i.e. had the VDISK_CDROM attribute. This allows udev's cdrom_id
to correctly detect the device as a cdrom device.[ Add blkif_ioctl, and CDROMMULTISESSION ]

Everything was moved to struct request_queue a few kernel revisions
ago, maintaining the deprecated typedef to avoid breaking things.
Now the time has come to get rid of that typedef.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

If we have multiple tasks freeing io contexts when as-iosched
is being unloaded, we could complete() ioc_gone twice. Fix that by
protecting ioc_gone complete() and clearing with a spinlock for
just that purpose. Doesn't matter from a performance perspective,
since it'll only enter that path when ioc_gone != NULL (when as-iosched
is being rmmod'ed).Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

When scheduled swaps occur, we need to blit between front & back
buffers. If the buffers are tiled, we need to set the appropriate
XY_SRC_COPY tile bit, but only on 965 chips, since it will cause
corruption on pre-965 (e.g. 945).Bug reported by and fix tested by Tomas Janousek .

During the development of the physical PCI slot patch series, Gary Hade
kept on reporting strange oopses due to interactions between pci_slot
and acpiphp.http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/28/319
find_root_bridges() unconditionally installs
handle_hotplug_event_bridge() as an ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY handler for all
root bridges.However, during module cleanup, remove_bridge() will only remove the
notify handler iff the root bridge had a hot-pluggable slot directly
underneath. That is:root bridge -> hotplug slot
But, if the topology looks like either of the following:
root bridge -> non-hotplug slot
root bridge -> p2p bridge -> hotplug slotThen we currently do not remove the notify handler from that root
bridge.This can cause a kernel oops if we modprobe acpiphp later and it gets
loaded somewhere else in memory. If the root bridge then receives a
hotplug event, it will then attempt to call a stale, non-existent notify
handler and we blow up.Much thanks goes to Gary Hade for his persistent debugging efforts.

For Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev. A nics, any read beyond the
VPD end tag will hang the device. This problem was initially
observed when a vpd entry was created in sysfs
('/sys/bus/pci/devices//vpd'). A read to this sysfs entry
will dump 32k of data. Reading a full 32k will cause an access
beyond the VPD end tag causing the device to hang. Once the device
is hung, the bnx2 driver will not be able to reset the device.
We believe that it is legal to read beyond the end tag and
therefore the solution is to limit the read/write length.A majority of this patch is from Matthew Wilcox who gave code for
reworking the PCI vpd size information. A PCI quirk added for the
Broadcom NIC's to limit the read/write's.Signed-off-by: Benjamin Li

UVC makefile defines obj as:
obj-$(CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS) := uvcvideo.o
Instead of:
obj-$(CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS) += uvcvideo.oDue to that, if uvc is selected, all obj-y or obj-m that were added to
compilation were forget. This breaks a proper kernel build.Acked-by: Laurent Pinchart
