The latest version of kvm doesn't initialize kvm_arch_ops in kvm_init(), which
causes an error with the following sequence.
1. Load the supported arch's module.
2. Load the unsupported arch's module.\e$B!!\e(B(loading error)
3. Unload the unsupported arch's module.
You'll get the following error message after step 3. "BUG: unable to handle
to handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx"
The problem here is that the unsupported arch's module overwrites kvm_arch_ops
of the supported arch's module at step 2.
This patch initializes kvm_arch_ops upon loading architecture specific kvm
module, and prevents overwriting kvm_arch_ops when kvm_arch_ops is already set
correctly.

[PATCH] SPI: define null tx_buf to mean "shift out zeroes"
Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what
it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are
(from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads.
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.

[PATCH] sched: fix cond_resched_softirq() offset
Remove the __resched_legal() check: it is conceptually broken. The biggest
problem it had is that it can mask buggy cond_resched() calls. A
cond_resched() call is only legal if we are not in an atomic context, with
two narrow exceptions:
- if the system is booting
- a reacquire_kernel_lock() down() done while PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set
But __resched_legal() hid this and just silently returned whenever
these primitives were called from invalid contexts. (Same goes for
cond_resched_locked() and cond_resched_softirq()).
Furthermore, the __legal_resched(0) call was buggy in that it caused
unnecessarily long softirq latencies via cond_resched_softirq(). (which is
only called from softirq-off sections, hence the code did nothing.)
The fix is to resurrect the efficiency of the might_sleep checks and to
only allow the narrow exceptions.
include/linux/utsrelease.h and include/linux/version.h aren't removed any
more by mrproper in kernel 2.6.20-rc2. The patch below fixes this.
The definition of MRPROPER_FILES looks weird: generated-headers looks like
a misspelling of generated_headers, but that one is a Makefile target, not

[PATCH] Fix lock inversion aio_kick_handler()
lockdep found a AB BC CA lock inversion in retry-based AIO:
1) The task struct's alloc_lock (A) is acquired in process context with
interrupts enabled. An interrupt might arrive and call wake_up() which
grabs the wait queue's q->lock (B).
2) When performing retry-based AIO the AIO core registers
aio_wake_function() as the wake funtion for iocb->ki_wait. It is called
with the wait queue's q->lock (B) held and then tries to add the iocb to
the run list after acquiring the ctx_lock (C).
3) aio_kick_handler() holds the ctx_lock (C) while acquiring the
alloc_lock (A) via lock_task() and unuse_mm(). Lockdep emits a warning
saying that we're trying to connect the irq-safe q->lock to the
irq-unsafe alloc_lock via ctx_lock.
This fixes the inversion by calling unuse_mm() in the AIO kick handing path
after we've released the ctx_lock. As Ben LaHaise pointed out __put_ioctx
could set ctx->mm to NULL, so we must only access ctx->mm while we have the
lock.

VM: Fix nasty and subtle race in shared mmap'ed page writeback
The VM layer (on the face of it, fairly reasonably) expected that when
it does a ->writepage() call to the filesystem, it would write out the
full page at that point in time. Especially since it had earlier marked
the whole page dirty with "set_page_dirty()".
But that isn't actually the case: ->writepage() does not actually write
a page, it writes the parts of the page that have been explicitly marked
dirty before, *and* that had not got written out for other reasons since
the last time we told it they were dirty.
That last caveat is the important one.
Which _most_ of the time ends up being the whole page (since we had
called "set_page_dirty()" on the page earlier), but if the filesystem
had done any dirty flushing of its own (for example, to honor some
internal write ordering guarantees), it might end up doing only a
partial page IO (or none at all) when ->writepage() is actually called.
That is the correct thing in general (since we actually often _want_
only the known-dirty parts of the page to be written out), but the
shared dirty page handling had implicitly forgotten about these details,
and had a number of cases where it was doing just the "->writepage()"
part, without telling the low-level filesystem that the whole page might
have been re-dirtied as part of being mapped writably into user space.
Since most of the time the FS did actually write out the full page, we
didn't notice this for a loong time, and this needed some really odd
patterns to trigger. But it caused occasional corruption with rtorrent
and with the Debian "apt" database, because both use shared mmaps to
update the end result.
This fixes it. Finally. After way too much hair-pulling.

PHY probe not working properly for ibm_emac (PPC4xx)
I have a system with AMCC PowerPC 405EP and PHY Intel LXT971A. Linux
2.6.18.3 is not able to detect the PHY ID correctly. The PHY ID
detected is 0, but should be 0x1d.
This is because phy_read() (__emac_mdio_read() resp.) from
drivers/net/ibm_emac/ibm_emac_core.c might return -ETIMEDOUT or
-EREMOTEIO on error. This is ignored inside the
int mii_phy_probe(struct mii_phy *phy, int address)
from drivers/net/ibm_emac/ibm_emac_phy.c
as the return value is assigned to an u32 variable.

MSI doesn't work properly on resume on many platforms because the
BIOS goes and changes it back to INTx mode after the sky2 driver has
restored in resume.
It is really a bug in the base power management resume code, and
this workaround is temporary until the change to PM code works it's way
through the release process. The PM fix is non-trivial since it needs
to change when non-boot CPU's are enabled.

e1000: Do not truncate TSO TCP header with 82544 workaround
The e1000 driver has a workaround for 82544 on PCI-X where if the
terminating byte of a buffer is at addresses 0-3 mod 8, then 4 bytes
are shaved off it and defered to a new segment. This is due to an
erratum that could otherwise cause TX hangs.
Unfortunately this breaks TSO because it may cause the TCP header to
be split over two segments which itself causes TX hangs. The solution
is to pull 4 bytes of data up from the next segment rather than pushing
4 bytes off. This ensures the TCP header remains in one piece and
works around the PCI-X hang.
This patch is based on one from Jesse Brandeburg.
This bug has been trigered by both CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB as well as Xen.
Note that the only reason we don't see this normally is because the
TCP stack starts writing from the end, i.e., it writes the TCP header
first then slaps on the IP header, etc. So the end of the TCP header
(skb->tail - 1 here) is always aligned correctly.
Had we made the start of the IP header (e.g., IPv6) 8-byte aligned
instead, this would happen for normal TCP traffic as well.

myri10ge: match number of save_state and restore
Since pci_save_state() pushes MSI and PCIe states on a kind of stack,
myri10ge saving the state in advance for parity recovery will push the
state again on the stack on suspend. This leads to some memory leak.
We add a couple additional calls to save_state and restore_state so
that we don't leak anymore.
For the future, we are thinking of a better way to recover from parity
error without using pci_save_state().

net/core/netpoll.c::netpoll_send_skb() calls the poll handler when

IRQ must not be enabled blindly in the NAPI handler of a driver which

[PATCH] e1000: No-delay link detection at interface up
Currently after an interface up, the link state is detected 2 seconds later
when the first watchdog timer runs. This patch changes that by triggering
the hardware to generate a link-change interrupt from the up() function
instead. This has the result that the link state gets detected immediately
and without races. This has the potential to speed up booting since a normal
distribution boot process waits for a link before DHCP is attempted.
