* [PATCH] binfmt_flat: don't check for EMFILEAndrew Morton2006-05-211-21/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bernd Schmidt points out that binfmt_flat is now leaving the exec file open while the application runs. This offsets all the application's fd numbers. We should have closed the file within exec(), not at exit()-time. But there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in doing all this just to avoid going over RLIMIT_NOFILE by one fd for a few microseconds. So take the EMFILE checking out again. This will cause binfmt_flat to again fail LTP's exec-should-return-EMFILE-when-fdtable-is-full test. That test appears to be wrong anyway - Open Group specs say nothing about exec() returning EMFILE.

* [PATCH] NFS server subtree_check returns dubious valuePeter Staubach2006-05-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Address a problem found when a Linux NFS server uses the "subtree_check" export option. The "subtree_check" NFS export option was designed to prohibit a client from using a file handle for which it should not have permission. The algorithm used is to ensure that the entire path to the file being referenced is accessible to the user attempting to use the file handle. If some part of the path is not accessible, then the operation is aborted and the appropriate version of ESTALE is returned to the NFS client. The error, ESTALE, is unfortunate in that it causes NFS clients to make certain assumptions about the continued existence of the file. They assume that the file no longer exists and refuse to attempt to access it again. In this case, the file really does exist, but access was denied by the server for a particular user. A better error to return would be an EACCES sort of error. This would inform the client that the particular operation that it was attempting was not allowed, without the nasty side effects of the ESTALE error.

* [PATCH] powerpc: Fix ide-pmac sysfs entryBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-05-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It looks like the generic ide code now wants ide_init_hwif_ports() to set the parent struct device into the ide_hw structure (new field ?). Without this, the mac ide code can cause the ide probing code to explode in flames in sysfs registration due to what looks like a stale pointer in there (happens when removing/re-inserting one of the hotswap media bays on some laptops).

* [PATCH] matroxfb: fix DVI setup to be more compatiblePaul A. Clarke2006-05-213-2/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There has been a longstanding problem with the Matrox G450 and perhaps other similar cards, with modes "above" 1280x1024-60 on ppc/ppc64 boxes running Linux. Higher resolutions and/or higher refresh rates resulted in a very noticably "jittery" display, and sometimes no display, depending on the physical monitor. This patch fixes that problem on the systems I have easy access to... I've tested with SLES9SP3 (2.6.5+ kernel) and 2.6.16-rc6 custom kernels on an IBM eServer p5 520 w/G450 (a.k.a GXT135P on IBM's ppc64 systems), and a colleague of mine (Ian Romanick) tested it successfully on an Apple ppc32 box (w/GXT135P). I also tested it on IA32 box I have with a GXT135P to verify that it didn't obviously break anything. In my testing, I covered single-card, single and dual-head setups using both HD15 and DVI-D signals, on both the IA32 and ppc64 boxes. While everything appeared fine on both boxes, I did encounter one problem: I can't get any signal on the DVI-D output on the ppc64 box. However, this is also the case without my patch. I just noticed that screen-blanking only occurs on the primary display as well. Signed-off-by: Paul A.

* [PATCH] NFS: fix error handling on access_ok in compat_sys_nfsservctlLin Feng Shen2006-05-211-85/+92
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Functions compat_nfs_svc_trans, compat_nfs_clnt_trans, compat_nfs_exp_trans, compat_nfs_getfd_trans and compat_nfs_getfs_trans, which are called by compat_sys_nfsservctl(fs/compat.c), don't handle the return value of access_ok properly. access_ok return 1 when the addr is valid, and 0 when it's not, but these functions have the reversed understanding. When the address is valid, they always return -EFAULT to compat_sys_nfsservctl. An example is to run /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd(32bit program on Power5). It doesn't function as expected. strace showes that nfsservctl returns -EFAULT. The patch fixes this by correcting the error handling on the return value of access_ok in the five functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver currently keeps local copies of the hardware request/response queue indexes. But it expends significant effort ensuring consistency between the two views, and still gets it wrong after an error or reset occurs. This patch removes the local copies, in favour of just accessing the hardware whenever we need them. Eventually this may need to be tweaked again for NCQ, but for now this works and solves problems some users were seeing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 60xx chips, and possibly others, incorrectly assert DEV_IRQ interrupts on a regular basis. The cause of this is under investigation (by me and in theory by Marvell also), but regardless we do need to deal with these events. This patch tidies up some interrupt handler code, and ensures that we ignore DEV_IRQ interrupts when the drive still has ATA_BUSY asserted.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The interface control register of the 60xx (and later) Marvell chip requires certain bits to always be set when writing to it. These bits incorrectly read-back as zeros, so the pattern must be ORed in with each write of the register. Also, bit 12 should NOT be set (note that Marvell's own driver also had bit-12 wrong here). While we're at it, we also now do pci_set_master() in the init code. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mv_err_intr() function is invoked from the driver's interrupt handler, as well as from the timeout function. This patch prevents it from triggering a one-after-the-other double reset of the controller when invoked from the timeout function. This also adds a check for a timeout race condition that has been observed to occur with this driver in earlier kernels. This should not be needed, in theory, but in practice it has caught bugs. Maybe nuke it at a later date. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

This leads to bogus frames and general confusion. This is why receive checksumming is also messed up on dual port cards. A workaround for the out of order receive problem is to eliminating split transactions on PCI-X. This version is based of the current linux-2.6.git including earlier patch to disable dual ports.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When performing bound checks during the parameter processing, we want to use the real chunk and paramter lengths for bounds instead of the rounded ones. This prevents us from potentially walking of the end if the chunk length was miscalculated. We still use rounded lengths when advancing the pointer. This was found during a conformance test that changed the chunk length without modifying parameters.

| * | | [SCTP]: A better solution to fix the race between sctp_peeloff() andVladislav Yasevich2006-05-192-67/+89

The goal is to hold the ref on the association/endpoint throughout the state-machine process. We accomplish like this: /* ref on the assoc/ep is taken during lookup */ if owned_by_user(sk) sctp_add_backlog(skb, sk); else inqueue_push(skb, sk); /* drop the ref on the assoc/ep */ However, in sctp_add_backlog() we take the ref on assoc/ep and hold it while the skb is on the backlog queue. This allows us to get rid of the sock_hold/sock_put in the lookup routines. Now sctp_backlog_rcv() needs to account for potential association move. In the unlikely event that association moved, we need to retest if the new socket is locked by user. If we don't this, we may have two packets racing up the stack toward the same socket and we can't deal with it. If the new socket is still locked, we'll just add the skb to its backlog continuing to hold the ref on the association. This get's rid of the need to move packets from one backlog to another and it also safe in case new packets arrive on the same backlog queue. The last step, is to lock the new socket when we are moving the association to it. This is needed in case any new packets arrive on the association when it moved. We want these to go to the backlog since we would like to avoid the race between this new packet and a packet that may be sitting on the backlog queue of the old socket toward the same association.
