In the case when an nmi gets stucks the endflag stays equal to zero.
This causes the busy looping on other cpus to continue, even though the
nmi test is done.On my machine with out the change below the system would hang right
after check_nmi_watchdog(). The change below just sets endflag prior to
checking if the test was successful or not.Signed-off-by: Daniel Walker

The CLFLUSH for the modified code line in text_poke was supposed
to speed up CPU recovery. Unfortunately it seems to cause hangs
on some VIA C3s (at least on VIA Esther Model 10 Stepping 9)
Remove it.Thanks to Stefan Becker for reporting/testing.

Fix the NMI watchdog on Intel CoreDuo processor where the kernel would
get stuck during boot. The issue is related to errata AE49, where the
PERFEVTSEL1 counter does not have a working enable bit. Thus it is not
possible to use it for NMI.The patch creates a dedicated wd_ops for CoreDuo which falls back to
using PERFEVTSEL0. The other Intel processors supporting the
architectural PMU will keep on using PERFEVTSEL1 as this allows other
subsystems, such as perfmon, to use PERFEVTSEL0 for PEBS monitoring in
particular. Bug initially reported by Daniel Walker.AK: Added comments

fsid_source decided where to get the 'fsid' number to
return for a GETATTR based on the type of filehandle.
It can be from the device, from the fsid, or from the
UUID.It is possible for the filehandle to be inconsistent
with the export information, so make sure the export information
actually has the info implied by the value returned by
fsid_source.Signed-off-by: Neil Brown

Recent changes in NFSd cause a directory which is mounted-on
to not appear properly when the filesystem containing it is exported.*exp_get* now returns -ENOENT rather than NULL and when
commit 5d3dbbeaf56d0365ac6b5c0a0da0bd31cc4781e1
removed the NULL checks, it didn't add a check for -ENOENT.Signed-off-by: Neil Brown

When PTRACE_SYSCALL was used and then PTRACE_DETACH is used, the
TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE flag is left set on the formerly-traced task. This
means that when a new tracer comes along and does PTRACE_ATTACH, it's
possible he gets a syscall tracing stop even though he's never used
PTRACE_SYSCALL. This happens if the task was in the middle of a system
call when the second PTRACE_ATTACH was done. The symptom is an
unexpected SIGTRAP when the tracer thinks that only SIGSTOP should have
been provoked by his ptrace calls so far.A few machines already fixed this in ptrace_disable (i386, ia64, m68k).
But all other machines do not, and still have this bug. On x86_64, this
constitutes a regression in IA32 compatibility support.Since all machines now use TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE for this, I put the
clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in the generic ptrace_detach code rather
than adding it to every other machine's ptrace_disable.Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath

Previously, ibmebus derived a device's bus_id from its location code.
The location code is not guaranteed to be unique, so we might get bus_id
collisions if two devices share the same location code. The OFDT
full_name, however, is unique, so we use that instead (truncating it
on the left if it is too long).Signed-off-by: Joachim Fenkes

On PS3, A storage device may show up in the repository before the hypervisor
has finished probing:
- If its type is not yet known, it shows up as PS3_DEV_TYPE_STOR_DUMMY,
- If its regions are being probed, it shows up as having zero regions.
If any of these happen, consider the device not yet present. The storage
probe thread will retry later.This fixes the timing-dependent problem where a kernel booted from FLASH ROM
sometimes cannot find the hard disk.Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven

At present, running any SPE program on the ps3 will trigger a BUG_ON
when spufs_run_spu tries to clear the master run control bit, as lv1
does not make the master run control available to Linux.This change makes SPE apps work again by disabling changes to the
master run control on PS3. Although we don't have the facility to
disable a SPE with supervisor-level privileges, it's better than
hitting the BUG_ON unconditionally.Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr

The Cell BE Architecture spec states that the SPU MFC Class 0 interrupt
is edge-triggered. The current spu interrupt handler assumes this
behavior and does not clear the interrupt status.The PS3 hypervisor visualizes all SPU interrupts as level, and on return
from the interrupt handler the hypervisor will deliver a new virtual
interrupt for any unmasked interrupts which for which the status has not
been cleared. This fix clears the interrupt status in the interrupt
handler.Signed-off-by: Masato Noguchi

This fixes a bug in the way i2c-algo-bit handles I2C_M_RECV_LEN,
used to implement i2c_smbus_read_block_data(). Previously, in the
absence of PEC (rarely used!) it would NAK the "length" byte:S addr Rd [A] [length] NA
That prevents the subsequent data bytes from being read:
S addr Rd [A] [length] { A [data] }* NA
The primary fix just reorders two code blocks, so the length used
in the "should I NAK now?" check incorporates the data which it
just read from the slave device.However, that move also highlighted other fault handling glitches.
This fixes those by abstracting the RX path ack/nak logic, so it
can be used in more than one location. Also, a few CodingStyle
issues were also resolved.Signed-off-by: David Brownell

The function blkcipher_get_spot tries to return a buffer of
the specified length that does not straddle a page. It has
an off-by-one bug so it may advance a page unnecessarily.What's worse, one of its callers doesn't provide a buffer

Fixes (papers over) "Sleep problems with kernels >= 2.6.21 on powerpc",
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/25/155. The issue is that the FireWire
controller's pci_dev.current_state of iBook G3 and presumably older
PowerBooks is still in PCI_UNKNOWN instead of PCI_D0 when the firewire
driver's .suspend method is called.Like it was suggested earlier in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/24/13, we
do not fail .suspend anymore if pci_set_power_state failed.Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter
