* [PATCH] don't include ioctl32.h in driversChristoph Hellwig2006-01-105-5/+0

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This updates m8xx_wdt as follows: 1) Remove now obsolete fpos check in the write() function. The driver is currently non functional due to this bug. 2) Use in/out macros for register access. 3) Allows m8xx_wdt to use a kernel timer instead of the builtin RTC/PIT for keep-alive trigger (which is responsible for servicing the watchdog until an userspace application takes over). For instance Cyclades PRxK boards (MPC 855T based) have a non-functional internal RTC/PIT unit. Behaviour for boards with RTC/PIT is unchaged. 4) The last change required moving the RTCSC register setting code to a weak function which can be overriden by board specific files. Otherwise the timer init code trashes the register making it impossible for m8xx_wdt to detect the situation.

* | [PATCH] /dev/mem: validate mmap requestsBjorn Helgaas2006-01-081-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a hook so architectures can validate /dev/mem mmap requests. This is analogous to validation we already perform in the read/write paths. The identity mapping scheme used on ia64 requires that each 16MB or 64MB granule be accessed with exactly one attribute (write-back or uncacheable). This avoids "attribute aliasing", which can cause a machine check. Sample problem scenario: - Machine supports VGA, so it has uncacheable (UC) MMIO at 640K-768K - efi_memmap_init() discards any write-back (WB) memory in the first granule - Application (e.g., "hwinfo") mmaps /dev/mem, offset 0 - hwinfo receives UC mapping (the default, since memmap says "no WB here") - Machine check abort (on chipsets that don't support UC access to WB memory, e.g., sx1000) In the scenario above, the only choices are - Use WB for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because it causes attribute aliasing with the UC mapping for the VGA MMIO space. - Use UC for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because the chipset may not support UC for that region. - Disallow the hwinfo mmap with -EINVAL. That's what this patch does.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | callback Unify the EVENT_CARD_INSERTION and "attach" callbacks to one unified probe() callback. As all in-kernel drivers are changed to this new callback, there will be no temporary backwards-compatibility. Inside a probe() function, each driver _must_ set struct pcmcia_device *p_dev->instance and instance->handle correctly. With these patches, the basic driver interface for 16-bit PCMCIA drivers now has the classic four callbacks known also from other buses: int (*probe) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); void (*remove) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); int (*suspend) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); int (*resume) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

What I _think_ might be happening is that the X server is also trying to muck around with the card memory map and is forcing it back into a wrong setting that also happens to no longer match what the DRM wants to do and blows up. There are bugs all over the place in that code (and still some bugs in the DRM as well anyway). This patch attempts to avoid that by using the largest of the 2 values, which I think will cause it to behave as it used to for you and will still fix the problem with machines that have an aperture size smaller than the video memory.
