[PATCH] Update cyblafb driver

This is a major update to the cyblafb framebuffer driver. Most
of the stuff has been tested in the mm tree.

Main advantages:
============
  - vxres > xres support
  - ywrap and xpan support
  - much faster for almost all modes (e.g. 1280x1024-16bpp
     draws more than 41 full screens of text instead of about 25
     full screens of text per second on authors Epia 5000)
  - module init/exit code fixed
  - bugs triggered by console rotation fixed
  - lots of minor improvements
  - startup modes suitable for high performance scrolling
     in all directions

This diff  also contains a lot of white space fixes.

No side effects are possible, only one single graphics core is affected.

[PATCH] sata_nv, spurious interrupts at system startup with MAXTOR 6H500F0 drive

This patch works around a problem with spurious interrupts seen at boot time when
a MAXTOR 6H500F0 drive is present.  An ATA interrupt condition is mysteriously
present at start of day.  If we took too long in issuing the first command,
the kernel would basically get tired of the spurious interrupts and turn the interrupt
off.  Issuing the first command essentially causes the interrupt condition to
get acknowledged.

I haven't seen this happen with any other drives.

What I basically do is ack ATA status by reading it regardless of whether we're
expecting to have to handle an interrupt.  This clears the start-of-day anomalous
interrupt condition, and keeps the kernel from disabling that interrupt due to
too many spurious interrupts.

Also, I fixed a bug where hotplug interrupts weren't getting acknowledged as handled
in the ISR.  This was not the cause of the spurious interrupts, but it's the right
thing to do anyway.

Previously, the host_build_iv flag couldn't be used at all for WEP, and
not alone (with both host_decrypt and host_encrypt disabled) because the

about 5k.

This version eliminates most of the #ifdefs of the previous version and
instead uses function stubs in vm86.h.  Also, release_vm86_irqs is moved
from asm-i386/irq.h to a more appropriate home in vm86.h so that the stubs
can live together.

[PATCH] fix workqueue oops during cpu offline

Use first_cpu(cpu_possible_map) for the single-thread workqueue case.  We
used to hardcode 0, but that broke on systems where !cpu_possible(0) when
workqueue_struct->cpu_workqueue_struct was changed from a static array to
alloc_percpu.

Commit id bce61dd49d6ba7799be2de17c772e4c701558f14 ("Fix hardcoded cpu=0 in
workqueue for per_cpu_ptr() calls") fixed that for Ben's funky sparc64
system, but it regressed my Power5.  Offlining cpu 0 oopses upon the next
call to queue_work for a single-thread workqueue, because now we try to
manipulate per_cpu_ptr(wq->cpu_wq, 1), which is uninitialized.

So we need to establish an unchanging "slot" for single-thread workqueues
which will have a valid percpu allocation.  Since alloc_percpu keys off of
cpu_possible_map, which must not change after initialization, make this
slot == first_cpu(cpu_possible_map).

[PATCH] /dev/mem: validate mmap requests

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.

[PATCH] fork: fix race in setting child's pgrp and tty

In fork, child should recopy parent's pgrp/tty after it has tasklist_lock.
Otherwise following a setpgid() on the parent, *after* copy_signal(), the
child will own a stale pgrp (which may be reused); (eg.  if copy_mm()
sleeps a long while due to memory pressure).  Similar issue for the tty.

18 years ago[PATCH] cciss: adds MSI and MSI-X support
Mike Miller [Sun, 8 Jan 2006 09:03:50 +0000 (01:03 -0800)]
[PATCH] cciss: adds MSI and MSI-X support

This creates a new function, cciss_interrupt_mode called from
cciss_pci_init.  This function determines what type of interrupt vector to
use, i.e., MSI, MSI-X, or IO-APIC.

One noticeable difference is changing the interrupt field of the controller
struct to an array of 4 unsigned ints.  The Smart Array HW is capable of
generating 4 distinct interrupts depending on the transport method in use
during operation.  These are:

#define DOORBELL_INT 0
Used to notify the contoller of configuration updates. We only use
this feature when in polling mode.

#define PERF_MODE_INT 0
Used when the controller is in Performant Mode.

#define SIMPLE_MODE_INT 2
Used when the controller is in Simple Mode (current Linux implementation).

#define MEMQ_INT_MODE 3
Not used.

When using IO-APIC interrupts these 4 lines are OR'ed together so when any
one fires an interrupt an is generated.  In MSI or MSI-X mode this hardware
OR'ing is ignored.  We must register for our interrupt depending on what
mode the controller is running.  For Linux we use SIMPLE_MODE_INT
exclusively at this time.  Please consider this for inclusion.

18 years ago[PATCH] Don't attempt to power off if power off is not implemented
Eric W. Biederman [Sun, 8 Jan 2006 09:03:46 +0000 (01:03 -0800)]
[PATCH] Don't attempt to power off if power off is not implemented

The problem.  It is expected that /sbin/halt -p works exactly like
/sbin/halt, when the kernel does not implement power off functionality.

The kernel can do a lot of work in the reboot notifiers and in
device_shutdown before we even get to machine_power_off.  Some of that
shutdown is not safe if you are leaving the power on, and it definitely
gets in the way of using sysrq or pressing ctrl-alt-del.  Since the
shutdown happens in generic code there is no way to fix this in
architecture specific code :(

Some machines are kernel oopsing today because of this.

The simple solution is to turn LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF into
LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT if power_off functionality is not implemented.

This has the unfortunate side effect of disabling the power off
functionality on architectures that leave pm_power_off to null and still
implement something in machine_power_off.  And it will break the build on
some architectures that don't have a pm_power_off variable at all.

On both counts I say tough.

For architectures like alpha that don't implement the pm_power_off variable
pm_power_off is declared in linux/pm.h and it is a generic part of our
power management code, and all architectures should implement it.

For architectures like parisc that have a default power off method in
machine_power_off if pm_power_off is not implemented or fails.  It is easy
enough to set the pm_power_off variable.  And nothing bad happens there,
the machines just stop powering off.

The current semantics are impossible without a flag at the top level so we
can avoid the problem code if a power off is not implemented.  pm_power_off
is as good a flag as any with the bonus that it works without modification
on at least x86, x86_64, powerpc, and ppc today.

Andrew can you pick this up and put this in the mm tree.  Kernels that
don't compile or don't power off seem saner than kernels that oops or
panic.  Until we get the arch specific patches for the problem
architectures this probably isn't smart to push into the stable kernel.
Unfortunately I don't have the time at the moment to walk through every
architecture and make them work.  And even if I did I couldn't test it :(
