fbb43ab03c ACPI: avoid references to impossible processors.
ACPI uses NR_CPUS in various loops and in some it accesses per cpu data of
processors that are not present(!) and that will never be present.

The pointers to per cpu data are typically not initialized for processors
that are not present.  So we seem to be reading something here from offset
0 in memory.

Make ACPI use nr_cpu_ids instead. That stops at the end of the possible
processors.

Convert one loop to NR_CPUS to use the cpu_possible map instead.  That way
ranges of processor that can never be brought online are skipped during the
loop.

e6ceb32aa2 wait_task_stopped(): pass correct exit_code to wait_noreap_copyout()
In wait_task_stopped() exit_code already contains the right value for the
si_status member of siginfo, and this is simply set in the non WNOWAIT
case.

If you call waitid() with a stopped or traced process, you'll get the signal
in siginfo.si_status as expected -- however if you call waitid(WNOWAIT) at the
same time, you'll get the signal << 8 | 0x7f

Pass it unchanged to wait_noreap_copyout(); we would only need to shift it
and add 0x7f if we were returning it in the user status field and that
isn't used for any function that permits WNOWAIT.

3c835670ab FRV: arrange things such that BRA can reach from the trap table
Arrange the sections in the FRV arch so that a BRA instruction with a
16-bit displacement can always reach from the trap table to entry.S,
tlb-miss.S and break.S.

The problem otherwise is that the linker can insert sufficient code between
the slots in the trap table and the targets of the branch instructions in
those slots that the displacement field in the instruction isn't
sufficiently large.  This is because the branch targets were in the .text
section along with most of the other code in the kernel.

fbee36b92a fuse: fix uninitialized field in fuse_inode
I found problems accessing (executing) previously existing files, until
I did chmod on them (or setattr).

If the fi->attr_version is not initialized, then it could be
larger than fc->attr_version until a setattr is executed, and as a
result the inode attributes would never be set.

7c83172b98 x86_64 EFI boot support: EFI frame buffer driver
This patch adds Graphics Output Protocol support to the kernel.  UEFI2.0 spec
deprecates Universal Graphics Adapter (UGA) protocol and only Graphics Output
Protocol (GOP) is produced.  Therefore, the boot loader needs to query the
UEFI firmware with appropriate Output Protocol and pass the video information
to the kernel.  As a result of GOP protocol, an EFI framebuffer driver is
needed for displaying console messages.  The patch adds a EFI framebuffer
driver.  The EFI frame buffer driver in this patch is based on the Intel Mac
framebuffer driver.

The ELILO bootloader takes care of passing the video information as
appropriate for EFI firmware.

The framebuffer driver has been tested in i386 kernel and x86_64 kernel on EFI
platform.

f78ba15705 revert "keyspan: init termios properly"
Revert 7eea436433.

Lucy said:

  This patch will work with the 19HS but WILL BREAK all other Keyspan
  adapters.  It will take me a few days to get to looking at a correct fix but
  that keyspan_send_setup(port, 1) (and the '1' is the important part) must
  happen once when the port is first opened.  The cflag can just be set to
  whatever the normal default is for your serial environment.

So revert this again pending the proper fix.

364e3a3d8a uml: fix !NO_HZ busy-loop
With NO_HZ disabled, the UML idle loop effectively becomes a busy loop, as
it will sleep for no time.

The cause was forgetting to restart the tick after waking up from sleep.
It was disabled before sleeping, and the remaining time used as the
interval to sleep.  So, the tick needs to be restarted when nanosleep
finishes.

This is done by introducing after_sleep_interval, which is empty in the
NO_HZ case, but which sets the tick starting in the !NO_HZ case.

 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

The box has no HiSax card installed.

the reason for the crash is add_timer() done on an already running
timer. This happens because for some reason CARD_INIT is called twice.

this patch works this problem around by using mod_timer() - this gets
a booting system - but it would be nice to figure out why CARD_INIT
is done twice.

8ec2328f11 file capabilities: don't prevent signaling setuid root programs
An unprivileged process must be able to kill a setuid root program started
by the same user.  This is legacy behavior needed for instance for xinit to
kill X when the window manager exits.

When an unprivileged user runs a setuid root program in !SECURE_NOROOT
mode, fP, fI, and fE are set full on, so pP' and pE' are full on.  Then
cap_task_kill() prevents the user from signaling the setuid root task.
This is a change in behavior compared to when
!CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES.

This patch introduces a special check into cap_task_kill() just to check
whether a non-root user is signaling a setuid root program started by the
same user.  If so, then signal is allowed.

In fact, on most platforms memcpy and RAID aren't factors, and DMA
exists so that peripherals can transfer data to/from memory while
the CPU does other work.

e593f070b4 atmel_lcdfb: LCDC startup fix
This patch adds an additional loop, that delays turning off the DMA
until the LCDC core has been turned off. This prevents the picture
to be shifted some random length when the kernel re-initializes
the LCDC.

Without this patch, the LCDC keeps running for some small time after the
PWRCON:LCD_PWR has been cleared ; the FIFO suffers an underrun and on
re-starting the LCDC the FIFO data stays shifted.

This behavior has been seen and fixed on AT91SAM9261-EK and two custom
AT91SAM9261 boards, all of them having different LCD panels.

Thanks a lot to Anti Sullin for submitting this patch (long
time ago).

2868f89fc4 The namespaces compatibility list doc
People discuss how the namespaces are working/going-to-work together.

Ted Ts'o proposed to create some document that describes what problems user
may have when he/she creates some new namespace, but keeps others shared.
I liked this idea, so here's the initial version of such a document with
the problems I currently have in mind and can describe somewhat audibly -
the "namespaces compatibility list".

The Documentation/namespaces/ directory is about to contain more docs about
the namespaces stuff.

Thanks to Cedirc for notes and spell checks on the doc, to Daniel for
additional info about IPC and User namespaces interaction and to Randy, who
alluded me to using a spell checker before sending the documentation :)

32df81cbd5 Isolate the UTS namespace's domainname and hostname back
Commit 7d69a1f4a7 ("remove CONFIG_UTS_NS
and CONFIG_IPC_NS") by Cedric Le Goater accidentally removed the code
that prevented the uts->hostname and uts->domainname values from being
overwritten from another namespace.

In other words, setting hostname/domainname via sysfs (echo xxx >
/proc/sys/kernel/(host|domain)name) cased the new value to be set in
init UTS namespace only.

Return the isolation back.

b64d70825a fb_ddc: fix DDC lines quirk
The code in fb_ddc_read() is said to be based on the implementation of the
radeon driver:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fc5891c8a3ba284f13994d7bc1f1bfa8283982de

However, comparing the old radeon driver code with the new fb_ddc code
reveals some differences.  Most notably, the I2C bus lines are held at the
end of the function, while the original code was releasing them (as the
comment above correctly says.)

There are a few other differences, which appear to be responsible for read
failures on my system.  While tracing low-level I2C code in i2c-algo-bit, I
noticed that the initial attempt to read the EDID always failed.  It takes
one retry for the read to succeed.  As we are about to remove this
automatic retry property from i2c-algo-bit, reading the EDID would really
fail.

As a summary, the I2C lines quirk which is supposedly needed to read EDID
on some older monitors is currently breaking the (first) read on all other
monitors (and might not even work with older ones - did anyone try since
October 2006?)

After applying the patch below, which makes the code in fb_ddc_read()
really similar to what the radeon driver used to have, the first EDID read
succeeds again.

On top of that, as it appears that this code has been broken for one year
now and nobody seems to have complained, I'm curious if it makes sense to
keep this quirk in place.  It makes the code more complex and slower just
for the sake of monitors which I guess nobody uses anymore.  Can't we just
get rid of it?

For now, change the one instance of __u32 to 'unsigned int' instead
because it's breaking userspace. We should probably also remove our
inclusion of <linux/types.h>, since we don't use it -- but that's not a

19fd4bb2a0 proc: remove races from proc_id_readdir()
Oleg noticed that the call of task_pid_nr_ns() in proc_pid_readdir
is racy with respect to tasks exiting.

After a bit of examination it also appears that the call itself
is completely unnecessary.

So to fix the problem this patch modifies next_tgid() to return
both a tgid and the task struct in question.

A structure is introduced to return these values because it is
slightly cleaner and easier to optimize, and the resulting code
is a little shorter.

c2319540cd proc: fix NULL ->i_fop oops
proc_kill_inodes() can clear ->i_fop in the middle of vfs_readdir resulting in
NULL dereference during "file->f_op->readdir(file, buf, filler)".

The solution is to remove proc_kill_inodes() completely:

a) we don't have tricky modules implementing their tricky readdir hooks which
   could keeping this revoke from hell.

b) In a situation when module is gone but PDE still alive, standard
   readdir will return only "." and "..", because pde->next was cleared by
   remove_proc_entry().

c) the race proc_kill_inode() destined to prevent is not completely
   fixed, just race window made smaller, because vfs_readdir() is run
   without sb_lock held and without file_list_lock held.  Effectively,
   ->i_fop is cleared at random moment, which can't fix properly anything.

On some systems the number of resources(IO,MEM) returnedy by PNP device is
greater than the PNP constant, for example motherboard devices.  It brings
that some resources can't be reserved and resource confilicts.  This will

This is a regression since we deleted ACPI motherboard driver and use PNP
system driver.

2c80b01bea xen: mask _PAGE_PCD from ptes
_PAGE_PCD maps a page with caching disabled, which is typically used for
mapping harware registers.  Xen never allows it to be set on a mapping, and
unprivileged guests never need it since they can't see the real underlying
hardware.  However, some uncached mappings are made early when probing the
(non-existent) APIC, and its OK to mask off the PCD flag in these cases.

This became necessary because Xen started checking for this bit, rather
than silently masking it off.

ba72cb8cb0 Fix boot problem with iSeries lacking hugepage support
Ordinarily the size of a pageblock is determined at compile-time based on the
hugepage size. On PPC64, the hugepage size is determined at runtime based on
what is supported by the machine. With legacy machines such as iSeries that
do not support hugepages, HPAGE_SHIFT is 0. This results in pageblock_order
being set to -PAGE_SHIFT and a crash results shortly afterwards.

This patch adds a function to select a sensible value for pageblock order by
default when HUGETLB_PAGE_SIZE_VARIABLE is set. It checks that HPAGE_SHIFT
is a sensible value before using the hugepage size; if it is not MAX_ORDER-1
is used.

This is a fix for 2.6.24.

Credit goes to Stephen Rothwell for identifying the bug and testing candidate
patches.  Additional credit goes to Andy Whitcroft for spotting a problem
with respects to IA-64 before releasing. Additional credit to David Gibson
for testing with the libhugetlbfs test suite.
