* [PATCH 1/2] proc: fix inode number bogorithmeticAlexey Dobriyan2008-08-011-12/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Id which proc gets from IDR for inode number and id which proc removes from IDR do not match. E.g. 0x11a transforms into 0x8000011a. Which stayed unnoticed for a long time because, surprise, idr_remove() masks out that high bit before doing anything. All of this due to "| ~MAX_ID_MASK" in release_inode_number(). I still don't understand how it's supposed to work, because "| ~MASK" is not an inversion for "& MAX" operation. So, use just one nice, working addition. Make start offset unsigned int, while I'm at it. It's longness is not used anywhere. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

* Fix off-by-one error in iov_iter_advance()Linus Torvalds2008-07-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The iov_iter_advance() function would look at the iov->iov_len entry even though it might have iterated over the whole array, and iov was pointing past the end. This would cause DEBUG_PAGEALLOC to trigger a kernel page fault if the allocation was at the end of a page, and the next page was unallocated. The quick fix is to just change the order of the tests: check that there is any iovec data left before we check the iov entry itself. Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan for finding this case, and testing the fix.

* romfs_readpage: don't report errors for pages beyond i_sizeLinus Torvalds2008-07-301-14/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We zero-fill them like we are supposed to, and that's all fine. It's only an error if the 'romfs_copyfrom()' routine isn't able to fill the data that is supposed to be there. Most of the patch is really just re-organizing the code a bit, and using separate variables for the error value and for how much of the page we actually filled from the filesystem.

| * powerpc: Allow non-hcall return values for lparcfg writesNathan Fontenot2008-07-301-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code to handle writes to /proc/ppc64/lparcfg incorrectly assumes that the return code from the helper routines to update processor or memory entitlement return a hcall return value. It then assumes any non-hcall return value is bad and sets the return code for the write to be -EIO. The update_[mp]pp routines can return values other than a hcall return value. This patch removes the automatic setting of any return code that is not an hcall return value from these routines to -EIO.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CPM2 BRG setup functions cpm_setbrg and cpm2_fastbrg don't support external clocks. This patch adds a new exported __cpm2_setbrg function that takes the clock rate and clock source as extra parameters, and moves cpm_setbrg and cpm2_fastbrg to include/asm-powerpc/cpm2.h where they become inline wrappers around __cpm2_setbrg.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | i8259 PIC is disabled on MPC8610HPCD boards, thus currently rtc-cmos driver fails to probe. To fix the issue, we lookup the device tree for "chrp,iic" and "pnpPNP,000" compatible devices, and if not found we do not assign RTC IRQ and assuming that i8259 was disabled. Though this patch fixes RTC on some boards (and surely should not break any other), the whole approach is still broken. We can't easily fix this though, because old device trees do not specify i8259 interrupts for the cmos rtc node.

Which means that dev_activate() and dev_deactivate() now do the "qdisc_sleeping <--> qdisc" transitions on dev->rx_queue too. Future simplifications are possible now, mainly because it is impossible for dev_queue->{qdisc,qdisc_sleeping} to be NULL.

| | * | mac80211: partially fix skb->cb useJohannes Berg2008-07-2913-52/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now, disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing, will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.

| | * | rtl8187: Improve wireless statistics for RTL8187BLarry Finger2008-07-292-34/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wireless statistics produced by the RTL8187B driver are not particularly informative about the strength of the received signal. From the data sheet provided by Realtek, I discovered that certain parts of the RX header should have the information necessary to calculate signal quality and strength. With testing, it became clear that most of these quantities were very jittery - only the AGC correlated with the signals expected from nearby AP's. As a result, the quality and strength are derived from the agc value. The scaling has been determined so that the numbers are close to those obtained by b43 under the same conditions. The results are qualitatively correct. Statistics derived for the RTL8187 have not been changed. The RX header variables have been renamed to match the quantites described in the Realtek data sheet.

| | * | rtl8187: Fix for TX sequence number problemLarry Finger2008-07-292-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "mac80211: fix TX sequence numbers" broke rtl8187. This patch makes the same kind of fix that was done for rt2x00. Note that this code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. In addition, the sequence number has been placed in the hardware state, not the vif state. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | * | mac80211: append CONFIG_ to MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG in net/mac80211/tx.c.Rami Rosen2008-07-291-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In net/mac80211/tx.c, there are some #ifdef which checks MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG (which in fact is never set) instead of CONFIG_MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG, as should be. This patch replaces MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG with CONFIG_MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG in these #ifdef commands in net/mac80211/tx.c.
