  • d63fb6c55   [PATCH] powermac: Fix some 64b resource damage ... Browse Code »

    The 64 bits resource patches did a bit of damage on PowerMac causing a
    buffer overflow in macio_asic and a warning in a sound driver. The
    former is fixed by reverting the sprintf of the bus_id to %08x as it was
    before. The bus_id used for macio devices is always a 32 bits value
    (macio always sits in 32 bits space) and since it's exposed to userland,
    the format of the string shouldn't be changed like that anyway. The
    second by using the proper type for printk.

    Add a space between data type and struct field name in man-mode

    short description (as done in man-mode output).

  • 1add6781c   [PATCH] RTC: class driver for Samsung S3C series SoC ... Browse Code »

    This is a renamed and tested version of the previous S3C24XX RTC class
    driver.

    The driver has been renamed from the original s3c2410-rtc, which is now too
    narrow for the range of devices supported.

    The rtc-s3c has been chosen as there is the distinct possibility of this
    driver being carried forward into newer Samsung SoC silicon.

  • 10e5dce07   [PATCH] ufs: truncate should allocate block for last byte ... Browse Code »

    This patch fixes buggy behaviour of UFS
    in such kind of scenario:
    open(, O_TRUNC...)
    ftruncate(, 1024)
    ftruncate(, 0)

    Such a scenario causes ufs_panic and remount read-only. This happen
    because of according to specification UFS should always allocate block for
    last byte, and many parts of our implementation rely on this, but
    `ufs_truncate' doesn't care about this.

    To make possible return error code and to know about old size, this patch
    removes `truncate' from ufs inode_operations and uses `setattr' method to
    call ufs_truncate.

  • eb28931e4   [PATCH] uml: rename and improve actually_do_remove() ... Browse Code »

    Rename actually_do_remove() to remove_files_and_dir(), make it call
    closedir(), make it ignore ENOENT (I see it frequently enough).

    ENOENT is probably due to multiple threads calling the exitcall functions
    together*, but fixing that is non-trivial; and ignoring it is perfectly ok
    in any case.

    * it can surely happen: last_ditch_exit() is installed as SIGTERM handler
    at boot, and it's not removed on thread creation. So killall vmlinux
    (which I do) surely causes that. I've seen also a crash which seems to
    do the same.

    Installing the handler on only the main thread would make UML do no cleanup
    when another thread exits, and we're not sure we want that. And mutual
    exclusion in that context is tricky - we can't use spinlock in code not on
    a kernel stack (spinlock debugging uses "current" a lot).

  • 912ad9222   [PATCH] uml: fix not_dead_yet when directory is in bad state ... Browse Code »

    The bug occurred to me when a UML left an empty ~/.uml/Sarge-norm folder -
    when trying to reuse not_dead_yet() failed one of its check. The comment
    says that's ok and means that we can take the directory, but while normally
    not_dead_yet() removes it and returns 0 (i.e. go on, use this), on failure
    it returns 0 but forgets to remove it. The fix is to remove it anytime
    we're going to return 0.

    But since "not_dead_yet" didn't make the interface so clear, causing this
    bug, and I couldn't find a convenient name for the mix of things it did, I
    split it into two parts:

    is_umdir_used() - returns a boolean, contains all checks of not_dead_yet()
    umdir_take_if_dead - tries to remove the dir unless it's used - returns
    whether it removed it, that is we now own it.

    With this changes the control flow is IMHO a bit clearer and needs less
    comment for control flow.

  • 47e5243af   [PATCH] uml: make copy_*_user atomic ... Browse Code »

    Make __copy_*_user_inatomic really atomic to avoid "Sleeping function called in
    atomic context" warnings, especially from futex code.

    This is made by adding another kmap_atomic slot and making copy_*_user_skas
    use kmap_atomic; also copy_*_user() becomes atomic, but that's true and is not
    a problem for i386 (and we can always add might_sleep there as done
    elsewhere). For TT mode kmap is not used, so there's no need for this.

    I've had to use another slot since both KM_USER0 and KM_USER1 are used
    elsewhere and could cause conflicts. Till now we reused the kmap_atomic slot
    list from the subarch, but that's not needed as that list must contain the
    common ones (used by generic code) + the ones used in architecture specific
    code (and Uml till now used none); so I've taken the i386 one after comparing
    it with ones from other archs, and added KM_UML_USERCOPY.
