* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_mac_header()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-257-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | For the places where we need a pointer to the mac header, it is still legal to touch skb->mac.raw directly if just adding to, subtracting from or setting it to another layer header. This one also converts some more cases to skb_reset_mac_header() that my regex missed as it had no spaces before nor after '=', ugh.

* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_mac_header(skb)Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-252-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | For the common, open coded 'skb->mac.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can later turn skb->mac.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in 64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit. This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more "complex" cases. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [PATCH] x86-64: Always flush all pages in change_page_attrAndi Kleen2007-04-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | change_page_attr on x86-64 only flushed the TLB for pages that got reverted. That's not correct: it has to be flushed in all cases. This bug was added in some earlier changes. Just flush all pages for now. This could be done more efficiently, but for this late in the release this seem to be the best fix.

* [PATCH] x86: Remove noreplacement optionAndi Kleen2007-04-241-19/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | noreplacement is dangerous on modern systems because it will not replace the context switch FNSAVE with SSE aware FXSAVE. But other places in the kernel still assume SSE and do FXSAVE and the CPU will then access FXSAVE information with FNSAVE and cause corruption. Easiest way to avoid this is to remove the option. It was mostly for paranoia reasons anyways and alternative()s have been stable for some time. Thanks to Jeremy F. for reporting and helping debug it. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
* [PATCH] x86-64: make GART PTEs uncacheableJoachim Deguara2007-04-241-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | This patches fixes the silent data corruption problems being seen using the GART iommu where 4kB of data where incorrect (seen mostly on Nvidia CK804 systems). This fix, to mark the memory regin the GART PTEs reside on as uncacheable, also brings the code in line with the AGP specification.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The save_fp_context()/restore_fp_context() might sleep on accessing user stack and therefore might lose FPU ownership in middle of them.

The CHILD_MAX cases weren't actually using anything I want to get rid of, but I noticed that they are there and are wrong too.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since lazy MMU batching mode still allows interrupts to enter, it is possible for interrupt handlers to try to use kmap_atomic, which fails when lazy mode is active, since the PTE update to highmem will be delayed. The best workaround is to issue an explicit flush in kmap_atomic_functions case; this is the only way nested PTE updates can happen in the interrupt handler. Thanks to Jeremy Fitzhardinge for noting the bug and suggestions on a fix. This patch gets reverted again when we start 2.6.22 and the bug gets fixed differently.

| * [PATCH] x86: Don't probe for DDC on VBE1.2Zwane Mwaikambo2007-04-022-0/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | VBE1.2 doesn't support function 15h (DDC) resulting in a 'hang' whilst uncompressing kernel with some video cards. Make sure we check VBE version before fiddling around with DDC. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1458 Opened: 2003-10-30 09:12 Last update: 2007-02-13 22:03 Much thanks to Tobias Hain for help in testing and investigating the bug. Tested on; i386, Chips & Technologies 65548 VESA VBE 1.2 CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=Y CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID=Y Untested on x86_64.

| * [PATCH] x86-64: Let oprofile reserve MSR on all CPUsAndi Kleen2007-04-022-58/+187
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The MSR reservation is per CPU and oprofile would only allocate them on the CPU it was initialized on. Change this to handle all CPUs. This also fixes a warning about unprotected use of smp_processor_id() in preemptible kernels. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
