V4L/DVB (5036): Pvrusb2: Fix for min/max control value checking
In the previous patch we exploited the get_{min,max}_value facility to adjust
min/max allowable frequencies on the fly, depending on tuner mode.
Unfortunately, this facility was not used inside the *sym_to_val() function
that translates what we echo to sysfs, which means we got an -ERANGE despite
asking for a frequency between what we read to be min/max.
This patch corrects this small omission.
V4L/DVB (5035): Pvrusb2: Enable radio mode round #2
This is the logic that:
a) Ensures /sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-*/ctl_frequency/{max,min}_val are
"automagically" reset to sane values on each mode change.
b) Allows tuning to a radio frequency by something like:
echo `perl -e "print int(94.9*16000 + 0.5)"` \
> /sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-*/ctl_input/cur_val
The trick was to take advantage of the already existing .get_{min,max}_value
function pointers in pvr2_ctrl, to "dynamically override" the hardcoded values
for min/max frequency at runtime.
For a moment I thought to dispose of the hardcoded MIN/MAX_FREQ and use the
hirange/lowrange fields of the v4l2_tuner struct instead, but then I see that
tuner-core.c kinda hardcodes these as well, so I decided to not bother.
V4L/DVB (5034): Pvrusb2: Enable radio mode round #1
This is the logic that supports switching modes via e.g.,
echo radio > /sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-*/ctl_input/cur_val.
To do the mode switching we need to:
a) broadcast AUDC_SET_RADIO and
b) issue the CX2341X_ENC_MUTE_VIDEO command to the encoder.
The first is done by adding a new pvr2_i2c_op and having it trigger on
input change, the second by adding this command in pvr2_encoder_start()
and requesting an encoder restart on input change by setting
stale_subsys_mask appropriately.
The clues about AUDC_SET_RADIO and CX2341X_ENC_MUTE_VIDEO were kindly
provided by Hans Verkuil on the pvrusb2 mailing list. The idea to
implement mode switching this way (on input change) is due to Mike Isely.
Why AUDC_SET_RADIO/VIDIOC_S_STD are used for switching? I can 't be sure,
but I think this can be traced to a cornell student being the first to
implement radio support in ivtv "as a different standard". I think the
rest just evolved from there (it 's in the ivtv ML archives).
V4L/DVB (5074): Some fixes at stream waitqueue on vivi
There are several potential troubles on vivi waitqueue code:
- Watchdog timer should be reset at every received frame;
- Watchdog timer should be reset at the beginning of vivi_thread();
- Checks for errors when creating a newer thread with kernel_thread();
- Wake up vivi_thread() after creating it.
Bill Dirks asked me to update his entries at kernel files, since
he change his e-mail.
I've also updated a few web broken links or obsolete info to the curent
sites where V4L drivers and API are being discussed currently.

WARNING: <path> - Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text:<name>_remove

That "$d" symbol is generated by tools conformant with ARM ABI specs; in
this case it's a symbol **in the middle of** a "<name>_driver" struct.
The erroneous warnings appear to be issued because "modpost" whitelists
references from "<name>_driver" data into init and exit sections ... but
doesn't know should also include those "$d" mapping symbols, which are not
otherwise associated with "<name>_driver" symbols.
This patch prevents the modpost symbol lookup code from ever returning

Then things work as expected.

It is possible that a user space application could remove and re-create a

[PATCH] autofs4: fix another race between mount and expire
Jeff Moyer has identified a race between mount and expire.
What happens is that during an expire the situation can arise that a directory
is removed and another lookup is done before the expire issues a completion
status to the kernel module. In this case, since the the lookup gets a new
dentry, it doesn't know that there is an expire in progress and when it posts
its mount request, matches the existing expire request and waits for its
completion. ENOENT is then returned to user space from lookup (as the dentry
passed in is now unhashed) without having performed the mount request.
The solution used here is to keep track of dentrys in this unhashed state and
reuse them, if possible, in order to preserve the flags. Additionally, this
infrastructure will provide the framework for the reintroduction of caching of
mount fails removed earlier in development.

the hole has been filled in. This could theoretically break an fs that
uses simple_prepare_write and not simple_commit_write, and that relies on

[PATCH] cfag12864b: fix crash when built-in and no parport present
The problem comes when ks0108/cfag12864b are built-in and no parallel port is
present. ks0108_init() is called first, as it should be, but fails to load
(as there is no parallel port to use).
After that, cfag12864b_init() gets called, without knowing anything about
ks0108 failed, and calls ks0108_writecontrol(), which dereferences an
uninitialized pointer.
Init order is OK, I think. The problem is how to stop cfag12864b_init() being
called if ks0108 failed to load. modprobe does it for us, but, how when
built-in?

[PATCH] shm: make sysv ipc shared memory use stacked files
The current ipc shared memory code runs into several problems because it
does not quite use files like the rest of the kernel. With the option of
backing ipc shared memory with either hugetlbfs or ordinary shared memory
the problems got worse. With the added support for ipc namespaces things
behaved so unexpected that we now have several bad namespace reference
counting bugs when using what appears at first glance to be a reasonable
idiom.
So to attack these problems and hopefully make the code more maintainable
this patch simply uses the files provided by other parts of the kernel and
builds it's own files out of them. The shm files are allocated in do_shmat
and freed when their reference count drops to zero with their last unmap.
The file and vm operations that we don't want to implement or we don't
implement completely we just delegate to the operations of our backing
file.
This means that we now get an accurate shm_nattch count for we have a
hugetlbfs inode for backing store, and the shm accounting of last attach
and last detach time work as well.
This means that getting a reference to the ipc namespace when we create the
file and dropping the referenece in the release method is now safe and
correct.
This means we no longer need a special case for clearing VM_MAYWRITE
as our file descriptor now only has write permissions when we have
requested write access when calling shmat. Although VM_SHARED is now
cleared as well which I believe is harmless and is mostly likely a
minor bug fix.
By using the same set of operations for both the hugetlb case and regular
shared memory case shmdt is not simplified and made slightly more correct
as now the test "vma->vm_ops == &shm_vm_ops" is 100% accurate in spotting
all shared memory regions generated from sysvipc shared memory.

[PATCH] slab: reduce size of alien cache to cover only possible nodes
The alien cache is a per cpu per node array allocated for every slab on the
system. Currently we size this array for all nodes that the kernel does
support. For IA64 this is 1024 nodes. So we allocate an array with 1024
objects even if we only boot a system with 4 nodes.
This patch uses "nr_node_ids" to determine the number of possible nodes
supported by a hardware configuration and only allocates an alien cache
sized for possible nodes.
The initialization of nr_node_ids occurred too late relative to the bootstrap
of the slab allocator and so I moved the setup_nr_node_ids() into
free_area_init_nodes().

[PATCH] Convert highest_possible_processor_id to nr_cpu_ids
We frequently need the maximum number of possible processors in order to
allocate arrays for all processors. So far this was done using
highest_possible_processor_id(). However, we do need the number of
processors not the highest id. Moreover the number was so far dynamically
calculated on each invokation. The number of possible processors does not
change when the system is running. We can therefore calculate that number
once.

[PATCH] Replace highest_possible_node_id() with nr_node_ids
highest_possible_node_id() is currently used to calculate the last possible
node idso that the network subsystem can figure out how to size per node
arrays.
I think having the ability to determine the maximum amount of nodes in a
system at runtime is useful but then we should name this entry
correspondingly, it should return the number of node_ids, and the the value
needs to be setup only once on bootup. The node_possible_map does not
change after bootup.
This patch introduces nr_node_ids and replaces the use of
highest_possible_node_id(). nr_node_ids is calculated on bootup when the
page allocators pagesets are initialized.
