If you misuse the device-mapper interface (or there's a bug in your userspace
tools) it's possible to end up with 'unlinked' mapped devices that cannot be
removed until you reboot (along with uninterruptible processes).
This patch prevents you from removing a device that is still open.
It introduces dm_lock_for_deletion() which is called when a device is about to
be removed to ensure that nothing has it open and nothing further can open it.
It uses a private open_count for this which also lets us remove one of the
problematic bdget_disk() calls elsewhere.

Persistent snapshots currently store a private copy of the chunk size.
Userspace also supplies the chunk size when loading a snapshot. Ensure
consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place instead of two.
Currently the two sizes will differ if the chunk size supplied by userspace
does not match the chunk size an existing snapshot actually uses. Amongst
other problems, this causes an incorrect 'percentage full' to be reported.
The patch ensures consistency by only storing the chunk_size in one place,
removing it from struct pstore. Some initialisation is delayed until the
correct chunk_size is known. If read_header() discovers that the wrong chunk
size was supplied, the 'area' buffer (which the header already got read into)
is reinitialised to the correct size.

4. Respect the parameter first_fb_vc and last_fb_vc instead of using 0 and
MAX_NR_CONSOLES - 1. These parameters are settable by the user.
5. When fbcon is completely unbound from the console layer, fbcon will
also release (iow, decrement module reference counts to zero) all fbdev
drivers. In other words, a bind or unbind request from the console layer
will propagate down to the framebuffer drivers.
6. If fbcon is not bound to the console, it will ignore all notifier
events (except driver registration and unregistration) and all sysfs
requests.

The framebuffer console is now able to dynamically bind and unbind from the VT
console layer. Due to the way the VT console layer works, the drivers
themselves decide when to bind or unbind. However, it was decided that
binding must be controlled, not by the drivers themselves, but by the VT
console layer. With this, dynamic binding is possible for all VT console
drivers, not just fbcon.
Thus, the VT console layer will impose the following to all VT console
drivers:
- all registered VT console drivers will be entered in a private list
- drivers can register themselves to the VT console layer, but they cannot
decide when to bind or unbind. (Exception: To maintain backwards
compatibility, take_over_console() will automatically bind the driver after
registration.)
- drivers can remove themselves from the list by unregistering from the VT
console layer. A prerequisite for unregistration is that the driver must not
be bound.
The following functions are new in the vt.c:
register_con_driver() - public function, this function adds the VT console
driver to an internal list maintained by the VT console
bind_con_driver() - private function, it binds the driver to the console
take_over_console() is changed to call register_con_driver() followed by a
bind_con_driver(). This is the only time drivers can decide when to bind to
the VT layer. This is to maintain backwards compatibility.
unbind_con_driver() - private function, it unbinds the driver from its
console. The vacated consoles will be taken over by the default boot console
driver.
unregister_con_driver() - public function, removes the driver from the
internal list maintained by the VT console. It will only succeed if the
driver is currently unbound.
con_is_bound() checks if the driver is currently bound or not
give_up_console() is just a wrapper to unregister_con_driver().
There are also 3 additional functions meant to be called only by the tty layer
for sysfs control:
vt_bind() - calls bind_con_driver()
vt_unbind() - calls unbind_con_driver()
vt_show_drivers() - shows the list of registered drivers
Most VT console drivers will continue to work as is, but might have problems
when unbinding or binding which should be fixable with minimal changes.

Add the ability to detach and attach the framebuffer console to and from the
vt layer. This is done by echo'ing any value to sysfs attributes located in
class/graphics/fbcon. The two attributes are:
attach - bind fbcon to the vt layer
detach - unbind fbcon from the vt layer
Once fbcon is detached from the vt layer, fbcon can be unloaded if compiled as
a module. This feature is quite useful for developers who work on the
framebuffer or console subsystem. This is also useful for users who want to
go to text mode or graphics mode without having to reboot.
Directly unloading the fbcon module is not possible because the vt layer
increments the module reference count for all bound consoles. Detaching fbcon
decrements the module reference count to zero so unloading becomes possible.
Detaching fbcon may interfere with X and/or DRM.

To allow for detaching fbcon, it must be able to give up the console.
However, the function give_up_console() is plain broken. It just sets the
entries in the console driver map to NULL, it leaves the vt layer without a
console driver, and does not decrement the module reference count. Calling
give_up_console() is guaranteed to hang the machine..
To fix this problem, ensure that the virtual consoles are not left dangling
without a driver. All systems have a default boot driver (either vgacon or
dummycon) which is never unloaded. For those vt's that lost their driver, the
default boot driver is reassigned back to them.

One of the limitations of the framebuffer console system is its inablity to
unload or detach itself from the console layer. And once it loads, it also
locks in framebuffer drivers preventing their unload. Although the con2fbmap
utility does provide a means to unload individual drivers, it requires that at
least one framebuffer driver is loaded for use by fbcon.
With this change, it is possible to detach fbcon from the console layer. If it
is detached, it will reattach the boot console driver (which is permanently
loaded) back to the console layer so the system can continue to work. As a
consequence, fbcon will also decrement its reference count of individual
framebuffer drivers, allowing all of these drivers to be unloaded even if
fbcon is still loaded.
Unless you use drivers that restores the display to text mode (rivafb and
i810fb, for example), detaching fbcon does require assistance from userspace
tools (ie, vbetools) for text mode to be restored completely. Without the
help of these tools, fbcon will leave the VGA console corrupted. The methods
that can be used will be described in Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt.
Because the vt layer also increments the module reference count for each
console driver, fbcon cannot be directly unloaded. It must be detached first
prior to unload.
Similarly, fbcon can be reattached to the console layer without having to
reload the module. A nice feature if fbcon is compiled statically.
Attaching and detaching fbcon is done via sysfs attributes. A class device
entry for fbcon is created in /sys/class/graphics. The two attributes that
controls this feature are detach and attach. Two other attributes that are
piggybacked under /sys/class/graphics/fb[n] that are fbcon-specific,
'con_rotate' and 'con_rotate_all' are moved to fbcon. They are renamed as
'rotate' and 'rotate_all' respectively.
Overall, this feature is a great help for developers working in the
framebuffer or console layer. There is not need to continually reboot the
kernel for every small change. It is also useful for regular users who wants
to choose between a graphical console or a text console without having to
reboot.
Example usage for x86:
/* start in text mode */
modprobe xxxfb
modprobe fbcon
/* graphical mode with fbcon using xxxfb */
echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fbcon/detach
/* back to text mode, will produce corrupt display unless vbetool is used */
rmmod xxxfb
modprobe yyyfb
/* back to graphical mode with fbcon using yyyfb */
Before trying out this feature, please read Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt.
This patch:
In order for fbcon to detach itself from the console layer, vgacon, which is a
boot console driver, must be fixed so it can retake the console multiple
times, not just during init. The following needs to be done:
- remove __init from the vgacon_startup, this is called again by
take_over_console().
- vc->rows and vc->cols are set manually by vgacon during init. After init,
vc_resize() can be used
- make sure the scrollback_buffer is not reallocated

This is a fix for the most annoying problem that remained with neofb:
After "setterm -powersave powerdown" the console blanker will disable the
backlight after the given timeout expires. If this happens after the lid
has been shut, we read "LCD off" from the register and store that in the
driver. Once the lid is opened, the backlight turns on, but any key press
that would awaken the blanked console will switch the backlight off again.
The workaround so far was to use the "display config toggle" Fn key combo -
once if no external display is attached, otherwise as often as required to
restore the desired display setup.
The following patch fixes the issue at least for the LCD-only case, with no
external monitor attached. Other display setup permutations are pending
further testing, but so far I can guarantee at least no negative change in
behaviour, if any at all.

nVidia is churning out chipsets like there's no tomorrow. And even though the
pci_device_id table now has numerous entries, it is still not guaranteed that
all supported devices are included or will be included.
Fortunately, nvidiafb has chipset detection logic built in. So, change the
contents of the pci_device_id table so it will capture all nVidia devices of
the display class. Unsupported chipsets will then be filtered out by
nvidiafb's detection logic.

The EDID block should specify the display's operating limits (vertical and
horizontal sync ranges, and maximum dot clock). If not given by the EDID
block, the ranges are extrapolated from the modelist. However, the
computation used is only a rough approximation, and the resulting values may
not reflect the actual capability of the display. This problem is frequently
encountered when the EDID block has a single entry, the single mode entry will
fail validation.
To prevent this, calculate the values based on the same method used in
fb_validate_mode().

Reported by: Rich (Bugzilla Bug 6417)
"if savage driver is used in x.org together with savagefb, it results in
seriously garbled and distorted screen - coupled with severe slowdowns."
This bug is the result of Xorg unable to handle savagefb altering the
hardware which results in X failing to start properly and/or failed console
switching.
Add savagefb_state_save and savagefb_state_restore. These hooks will only
save and restore the extended VGA registers. Standard VGA registers will be
left alone. This is enough to make savagefb play nicely with the latest
Xorg savage driver, and perhaps with savage DRI. (Transient screen artifacts
may appear before X loads and during console switches).
(Unfortunately, blanking the screen also leaves Xorg in a blanked state, so I
have to unblank the screen before Xorg loads. So I doubt if the transient
screen artifacts will be completely invisible but hopefully it will only be
for a shorter duration (not much).)

in ide_dump_opcode() takes the ide_lock in an irq-unsafe manner, i.e. this
function expects to be called with irqs disabled. But
ide_dump_ata[pi]_status() doesnt do that - it enables interrupts specifically.
That is a no-no - what guarantees that another IDE port couldnt generate an
IDE interrupt while we are dumping this error? The fix is to turn the
irq-enabling in these functions into irq-disabling.

The function ide_timing_compute() fails to *actually* take drive's
specified minimum PIO/DMA cycle times into account -- when doing this, it
calls ide_timing_merge() on the 'struct ide_timing' argument which contains
garbage at the moment, and then ultimately destroys the read cycle time by
quantizing the ide_timing[] entry, instead of copying from that entry to
the argument structure, and only then doing a merge/quantize.

The interresting part of it is the "virtual address 00200200", which is
LIST_POISON2. I thought about some race condition, but as this is an UP
system, it leads to questions on how it can happen. If we look at EFLAGS:
00010202, we see that interrupts are enabled at the time of the crash
(eflags & 0x200).
Finally, I don't understand all the capi code, but I think that
handle_minor_send() is racing somehow against capi_recv_message(), which
call both capiminor_del_ack(). So if an IRQ occurs in the middle of
capiminor_del_ack() and another instance of it is invoked, it leads to
linked list corruption.
I came up with the following patch. With this, I could not reproduce the
crash anymore. Clearly, this is not the correct fix for the issue. As this
seems to be some locking issue, there might be more locking issues in that
code. For example, doesn't the whole struct capiminor have to be locked
somehow?

Add a CLOCKSOURCE_MASK macro to simplify initializing the mask for a struct
clocksource, and use it to replace literal mask constants in the various
clocksource drivers.

As suggested by Roman Zippel, change clocksource functions to use
clocksource_xyz rather then xyz_clocksource to avoid polluting the
namespace.

Implement the time sources for i386 (acpi_pm, cyclone, hpet, pit, and tsc).
With this patch, the conversion of the i386 arch to the generic timekeeping
code should be complete.
The patch should be fairly straight forward, only adding the new clocksources.

As part of the i386 conversion to the generic timekeeping infrastructure, this
introduces a new tsc.c file. The code in this file replaces the TSC
initialization, management and access code currently in timer_tsc.c (which
will be removed) that we want to preserve.
The code also introduces the following functionality:
o tsc_khz: like cpu_khz but stores the TSC frequency on systems that do not
change TSC frequency w/ CPU frequency
o check/mark_tsc_unstable: accessor/modifier flag for TSC timekeeping
usability
o minor cleanups to calibration math.
This patch also includes a one line __cpuinitdata fix from Zwane Mwaikambo.

John's about to nuke x86's monotonic clock without grepping for it first. The
patch lamely borrows the ppc64 code for x86.
hangcheck-timer shouldn't be doing it this way
a) HAVE_MONOTONIC should be CONFIG_MONOTONIC_CLOCK and it should be defined
in arch/xxx/Kconfig.
b) That ifdef tangle shouldn't be in hangcheck-timer.c. It should be using
arch-provided helper functions, which CONFIG_MONOTONIC_CLOCK-enabling
architectures implement in arch/something.c
