* [PATCH] i386: Restore CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START optionVivek Goyal2007-01-051-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Relocatable bzImage support had got rid of CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START option thinking that now this option is not required as people can build a second kernel as relocatable and load it anywhere. So need of compiling the kernel for a custom address was gone. But Magnus uses vmlinux images for second kernel in Xen environment and he wants to continue to use it. o Restoring the CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START option for the time being. I think down the line we can get rid of it. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@in.ibm.com> Cc: "Eric W.

* [PATCH] swsusp: Do not fail if resume device is not setRafael J. Wysocki2007-01-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the kernels later than 2.6.19 there is a regression that makes swsusp fail if the resume device is not explicitly specified. It can be fixed by adding an additional parameter to mm/swapfile.c:swap_type_of() allowing us to pass the (struct block_device *) corresponding to the first available swap back to the caller.

* [PATCH] KVM: Improve interrupt responseDor Laor2007-01-051-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current interrupt injection mechanism might delay an interrupt under the following circumstances: - if injection fails because the guest is not interruptible (rflags.IF clear, or after a 'mov ss' or 'sti' instruction). Userspace can check rflags, but the other cases or not testable under the current API. - if injection fails because of a fault during delivery. This probably never happens under normal guests. - if injection fails due to a physical interrupt causing a vmexit so that it can be handled by the host. In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing the interactive feel and interrupt throughput of the guest. This patch fixes the situation by allowing userspace to request an exit when the 'interrupt window' opens, so that it can re-inject the interrupt at the right time. Guest interactivity is very visibly improved.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jeffrey Altman, one of the gatekeepers of OpenAFS (the open source project which inherited the Transarc/IBM AFS codebase) has requested that the magic number 0x5346414F (little endian 'OAFS') be allocated for the f_type field of the fsinfo structure on Linux: https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2006-December/024829.html Add it to include/linux/magic.h, mostly as a way of publishing this number and ensuring that no other filesystem accidentally uses it.

This patch aims at preventing such things. In order to make it work, I had to modify asm-arm/irq.h too so that it can be included from assembly files.

Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from "undefined" to "will shift zeroes". This lets protocol drivers (like the ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior. It's what most controller drivers in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing, and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels. This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.

* | | | | [TCP]: Fix ambiguity in the `before' relation.Gerrit Renker2006-12-221-7/+2

The reason is that implicitly 0 is `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 ... 2^31 Solution: There is a simple fix, by defining before in such a way that 0 is no longer `before' 2^31, i.e. 0 `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 By not using the middle between 0 and 2^32, before can be made unambiguous. This is achieved by testing whether seq2-seq1 > 0 (using signed 32-bit arithmetic). I attach a patch to codify this. Also the `after' relation is basically a redefinition of `before', it is now defined as a macro after before. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

The trivial patch below addresses these concerns by introducing the appropriate free_fdtable() calls, which simply wrap the release RCU usage. Since free_fdtable() is a one-liner, it makes sense to promote it to an inline helper.

So, it becomes cause of compile error of duplicate definition if memory hotplug option is on.

A dirty page can become clean under two circumstances: (a) when we write it out. We have "clear_page_dirty_for_io()" for this, and that function remains unchanged. In the "for IO" case it is not sufficient to just clear the dirty bit, you also have to mark the page as being under writeback etc. (b) when we actually remove a page due to it becoming inaccessible to users, notably because it was truncate()'d away or the file (or metadata) no longer exists, and we thus want to cancel any outstanding dirty state. For the (b) case, we now introduce "cancel_dirty_page()", which only touches the page state itself, and verifies that the page is not mapped (since cancelling writes on a mapped page would be actively wrong as it is still accessible to users). Some filesystems need to be fixed up for this: CIFS, FUSE, JFS, ReiserFS, XFS all use the old confusing functions, and will be fixed separately in subsequent commits (with some of them just removing the offending logic, and others using clear_page_dirty_for_io()). This was confirmed by Martin Michlmayr to fix the apt database corruption on ARM.
