[PATCH] v9fs: simplify fid mapping

v9fs has been plagued by an over-complicated approach trying to map Linux
dentry semantics to Plan 9 fid semantics.  Our previous approach called for
aggressive flushing of the dcache resulting in several problems (including
wierd cwd behavior when running /bin/pwd).

This patch dramatically simplifies our handling of this fid management.  Fids
will not be clunked as promptly, but the new approach is more functionally
correct.  We now clunk un-open fids only when their dentry ref_count reaches 0
(and d_delete is called).

Another simplification is we no longer seek to match fids to the process-id or
uid of the action initiator.  The uid-matching will need to be revisited when
we fix the security model.

John Bowler [Wed, 1 Mar 2006 00:59:08 +0000 (16:59 -0800)]
[PATCH] drivers/mtd/redboot.c: recognise a foreign byte sex partition table

The RedBoot boot loader writes flash partition tables containing native
byte sex 32 bit values.  When booting an opposite byte sex kernel (e.g.  an
LE kernel from BE RedBoot) the current MTD driver fails to handle the
partition table and therefore is unable to generate the correct partition
map for the flash.

So far as I am aware this problem is ARM specific, because only ARM
supports software change of the CPU (memory system) byte sex, however the
partition table parsing is in generic MTD code.  The patch below has been
tested on NSLU2 (an IXP4XX based system) with a patch,
10-ixp4xx-copy-from.patch (submitted to linux-arm-kernel - it's ARM
specific) required to make the maps/ixp4xx.c driver work with an LE kernel.

Builds of the patched system are in the 'unstable' release of OpenSlug and
UcSlugC available from www.nslu2-linux.org.  These builds are BE, the
archives at www.nslu2-linux.org and www.handhelds.org (see
monotone.vanille.de) can be built LE (currently DISTRO targets
nslu-ltu.conf for LE thumb uclibc (32 bit kernel) and nslu2-lau.conf,
nslu2-lag.conf for LE arm uclibc/glibc) and this patch has been tested
extensively will both BE and LE systems on the NSLU2 (including swapping
between BE and LE by reflashing from both RedBoot and Linux).

The patch recognises that the FIS directory (the partition table) is
byte-reversed by examining the partition table size, which is known to be
one erase block (this is an assumption made elsewhere in redboot.c).  If
the size matches the erase block after byte swapping the value then
byte-reversal is assumed, if not no further action is taken.  The patched
code is fail safe; should redboot.c be changed to support a partition table
with a modified size field the test will fail and the partition table will
be assumed to have the host byte sex.

If byte-reversal is detected the patch byte swaps the remainder of the 32
bit fields in the copy of the table; this copy is then used to set up the
MTD partition map.

[PATCH] powerpc/iseries: Fix double phys_to_abs bug in htab_bolt_mapping

calling iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert. (4c55130b2aa93370f1bf52d2304394e91cf8ee39)

Later we changed iSeries_hpte_insert to cope with the bolting case, and called
that instead from create_pte_mapping() (which was renamed to htab_bolt_mapping)
(3c726f8dee6f55e96475574e9f645327e461884c).

Unfortunately that change introduced a subtle bug, where we pass an absolute
address to iSeries_hpte_insert() where it expects a physical address. This
leads to us calling phys_to_abs() twice on the physical address, which is
seriously bogus.

This only causes a problem if the absolute address from the first translation
can be looked up again in the chunk_map, which depends on the size and layout
of memory. I've seen it fail on one box, but not others.

The minimal fix is to pass the physical address to iSeries_hpte_insert(). For
2.6.17 we should make phys_to_abs() BUG if we try to double-translate an

in commit 2bf6a8fa21570f37fd1789610da30f70a05ac5e3.

Previously, the PCI Hotplug module had been changed to use the new
OFDT-based PCI probe when appropriate:

new kernel function pcibios_add_pci_devices(), the OFDT-based probe
stuff was dropped.  This patch restores it.

8139cp: fix broken suspend/resume

- check that the device is up before it is enabled again;
- the descriptor ring indexes must be set to zero before
  cp_init_hw() is issued. Add a nice comment to remember
  that skb allocation failure is still not handled.

18 years agovia-velocity: fix memory corruption when changing the mtu

via-velocity: fix memory corruption when changing the mtu

velocity_rx_refill() only replenishes the descriptor entries which
belong to the CPU. It works great in the Rx path but the driver must
ensure that all the descriptors are freed before velocity_rx_refill()
is used in velocity_change_mtu(). The patch resets the Rx descriptors
in velocity_free_rd_ring().

18 years ago[REQSK]: Don't reset rskq_defer_accept in reqsk_queue_alloc

[REQSK]: Don't reset rskq_defer_accept in reqsk_queue_alloc

In 295f7324ff8d9ea58b4d3ec93b1aaa1d80e048a9 I moved defer_accept from
tcp_sock to request_queue and mistakingly reset it at reqsl_queue_alloc, causing
calls to setsockopt(TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT ) to be lost after bind, the fix is to
remove the zeroing of rskq_defer_accept from reqsl_queue_alloc.

Thanks to Alexandra N. Kossovsky <Alexandra.Kossovsky@oktetlabs.ru> for
reporting and testing the suggested fix.
