26ec43f132 [PATCH] sky2: fix hotplug detect during poll
If the poll routine detects no hardware available, it needs to dequeue
it self from the network poll list. Linus didn't understand NAPI.

cfd95a9cf5 [PATCH] tmpfs: time granularity fix for [acm]time going backwards
I noticed a strange behavior in a tmpfs file system the other day, while
building packages - occasionally, and seemingly at random, make decided to
rebuild a target. However, only on tmpfs.

A file would be created, and if checked, it had a sub-second timestamp.
However, after an utimes related call where sub-seconds should be set, they
were zeroed instead. In the case that a file was created, and utimes(...,NULL)
was used on it in the same second, the timestamp on the file moved backwards.

After some digging, I found that this was being caused by tmpfs not having a
time granularity set, thus inheriting the default 1 second granularity.

Hugh adds: yes, we missed tmpfs when the s_time_gran mods went into 2.6.11.
Unfortunately, the granularity of CURRENT_TIME, often used in filesystems,
does not match the default granularity set by alloc_super.  A few more such
discrepancies have been found, but this is the most important to fix now.

d374c1c128 [sky2] Fix sky2 network driver suspend/resume
This fixes two independent problems: it would not save the PCI state on
suspend (and thus try to resume a nonexistent state on resume), and
while shut off, if an interrupt happened on the same shared irq, the irq
handler would react very badly to the interrupt status being an invalid
all-ones state.

79320d7e14 [TCP]: continued: reno sacked_out count fix
From: Aki M Nyrhinen <anyrhine@cs.helsinki.fi>

IMHO the current fix to the problem (in_flight underflow in reno)
is incorrect.  it treats the symptons but ignores the problem. the
problem is timing out packets other than the head packet when we
don't have sack. i try to explain (sorry if explaining the obvious).

with sack, scanning the retransmit queue for timed out packets is
fine because we know which packets in our retransmit queue have been
acked by the receiver.

without sack, we know only how many packets in our retransmit queue the
receiver has acknowledged, but no idea which packets.

think of a "typical" slow-start overshoot case, where for example
every third packet in a window get lost because a router buffer gets
full.

with sack, we check for timeouts on those every third packet (as the
rest have been sacked). the packet counting works out and if there
is no reordering, we'll retransmit exactly the packets that were 
lost.

without sack, however, we check for timeout on every packet and end up
retransmitting consecutive packets in the retransmit queue. in our
slow-start example, 2/3 of those retransmissions are unnecessary. these
unnecessary retransmissions eat the congestion window and evetually
prevent fast recovery from continuing, if enough packets were lost.

289a1e995e [PATCH] Fix for the PPTP hangs that have been reported
People have been reporting that PPP connections over ptys, such as
used with PPTP, will hang randomly when transferring large amounts of
data, for instance in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6530.
I have managed to reproduce the problem, and the patch below fixes the
actual cause.

The problem is not in fact in ppp_async.c but in n_tty.c.  What
happens is that when pptp reads from the pty, we call read_chan() in
drivers/char/n_tty.c on the master side of the pty.  That copies all
the characters out of its buffer to userspace and then calls
check_unthrottle(), which calls the pty unthrottle routine, which
calls tty_wakeup on the slave side, which calls ppp_asynctty_wakeup,
which calls tasklet_schedule.  So far so good.  Since we are in
process context, the tasklet runs immediately and calls
ppp_async_process(), which calls ppp_async_push, which calls the
tty->driver->write function to send some more output.

However, tty->driver->write() returns zero, because the master
tty->receive_room is still zero.  We haven't returned from
check_unthrottle() yet, and read_chan() only updates tty->receive_room
_after_ calling check_unthrottle.  That means that the driver->write
call in ppp_async_process() returns 0.  That would be fine if we were
going to get a subsequent wakeup call, but we aren't (we just had it,
and the buffer is now empty).

The solution is for n_tty.c to update tty->receive_room _before_
calling the driver unthrottle routine.  The patch below does this.
With this patch I was able to transfer a 900MB file over a PPTP
connection (taking about 25 minutes), whereas without the patch the
connection would always stall in under a minute.

8b8c8d280a [PATCH] PCI: reverse pci config space restore order
According to Intel ICH spec, there are several rules that Base Address
should be programmed before IOSE  (PCICMD register ) enabled.

For example ICH7:

12.1.3  SATA : the base address register for the bus master register
               should be programmed before this bit is set.

11.1.3:  PCICMD (USB): The base address register for USB should be
                       programmed before this bit is set.
....

To make sure kernel code follow this rule , and prevent unnecessary
confusion. I proposal this patch.

670bd95e04 [PATCH] Further alterations for memory barrier document
From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Apply some alterations to the memory barrier document that I worked out
with Paul McKenney of IBM, plus some of the alterations suggested by Alan
Stern.

The following changes were made:

 (*) One of the examples given for what can happen with overlapping memory
     barriers was wrong.

 (*) The description of general memory barriers said that a general barrier is
     a combination of a read barrier and a write barrier.  This isn't entirely
     true: it implies both, but is more than a combination of both.

 (*) The first example in the "SMP Barrier Pairing" section was wrong: the
     loads around the read barrier need to touch the memory locations in the
     opposite order to the stores around the write barrier.

 (*) Added a note to make explicit that the loads should be in reverse order to
     the stores.

 (*) Adjusted the diagrams in the "Examples Of Memory Barrier Sequences"
     section to make them clearer.  Added a couple of diagrams to make it more
     clear as to how it could go wrong without the barrier.

 (*) Added a section on memory speculation.

 (*) Dropped any references to memory allocation routines doing memory
     barriers.  They may do sometimes, but it can't be relied on.  This may be
     worthy of further documentation later.

 (*) Made the fact that a LOCK followed by an UNLOCK should not be considered a
     full memory barrier more explicit and gave an example.

71601e2b33 [PATCH] debugfs inode leak
Looking at the reiser4 crash, I found a leak in debugfs. In
debugfs_mknod(), we create the inode before checking if the dentry
already has one attached. We don't free it if that is the case.

These bugs happen quite often, I'm starting to think we should disallow
such coding in CodingStyle.

bc1c116974 [PATCH] elevator switching race
There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the
next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be
invoked with bad or NULL data.

To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer.
Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be
run without the lock held.  This isn't easily fixable, without also
changing the mempool API.  So split the initialization into two parts,
and alloc-init operation and an attach operation.  Then we can
preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach
inside the lock after we detach the old one.

This patch has survived 30 minutes of 1 second io scheduler switching
with a very busy io load.

26e780e8ef [PATCH] fbcon: fix limited scroll in SCROLL_PAN_REDRAW mode
From: Malcom Parsons <malcolm.parsons@gmail.com>

When scrolling up in SCROLL_PAN_REDRAW mode with a large limited scroll
region, the bottom few lines have to be redrawn.  Without this patch, the
wrong text is drawn into these lines, corrupting the display.

Observed in 2.6.14 when running an IRC client in the Nintendo DS linux
port.

I haven't tested if scrolling down has the same problem.

Including <linux/sched.h> is a step into direction of include hell so
fixed by adding a forward declaration of struct mm_struct instead.

The recent renaming of m48t86's ->readb() and ->writeb() platform driver

->writebyte() to fix the ia64 build broke the build of the cirrus ep93xx

a2ef3a50f1 [PATCH] Fix HPET operation on 64-bit NVIDIA platforms
From: "Andy Currid" <ACurrid@nvidia.com>

This patch fixes a kernel panic during boot that occurs on NVIDIA platforms
that have HPET enabled.

When HPET is enabled, the standard timer IRQ is routed to IOAPIC pin 2 and is
advertised as such in the ACPI APIC table - but an earlier workaround in the
kernel was ignoring this override.  The fix is to honor timer IRQ overrides
from ACPI when HPET is detected on an NVIDIA platform.

e2f04e1894 [ARM] 3546/1: PATCH: subtle lost interrupts bug on i.MX
Patch from Matt Reimer

There is a subtle bug in the GPIO interrupt status register
handling in arch/arm/mach-imx/irq.c:imx_gpio_ack_irq(). The
documentation states that a 1 should be written to the relevant bit to
acknowledge a GPIO interrupt, but that is not what the code does.

The problem is that the |= writes back 1s for all the *other*
interrupts represented in the register, so interrupts could get lost.
For example, if interrupts are pending for GPIO B10 and B12, ISR_B
would have the value 0x00001400. Then when the interrupt code handles
GPIO B10, it eventually calls imx_gpio_ack_irq(IRQ_GPIOB(10)), which
effectively does this:

ISR_B |= 1 << 10;

with the result that (0x00001400 | 0x00000400) is written, clearing
the interrupt status bits for *both* GPIO B10 and B12.

The fix is to write 1s only for the interrupts we want to clear.

The same problem seems to be occurring in the DMA code; this patch
does not address those issues.
