e1000: fix panic on large frame receive when mtu=default
A panic was reported when receiving 1522 size packets if using
the default MTU. we should set the initial rx buffer length to the
value that e1000changemtu sets so that we can receive any packet
that would not be dropped by LPE=0.
e1000: Redo netpoll fix to address community concerns
The original suggested fix for netpoll was found to be racy on SMP
kernels. While it is highly unlikely that this race would ever be seen
in the real world due to current netpoll usage models, we implemented
this updated fix to address concerns.

When the driver handles multiple packets per NAPI poll, it is
better to reload the receive ring, then tell the hardware. Otherwise,
under packet storm with flow control, the driver/hardware will degrade
down to one packet getting through per pause-exchange.
Likewise on transmit, don't wakeup until a little more than minimum
ring space is available.

[PATCH] x86_64: Bring x86-64 ia32 emul in sync with i386 on READ_IMPLIES_EXEC enabling
Currently ia32 binaries behave differently with respect to enabling
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC. On i386 a binary with the exec_stack flag set is
executed with READ_IMPLIES_EXEC enabled as well. The same binary
executes without READ_IMPLIES_EXEC on x86-64.
This causes binaries that work on i386 to fail on x86-64 which goes
somewhat against the whole 32 bit emulation idea.
It has been argued that READ_IMPLIES_EXEC should not be enabled at all
for binaries that have the exec_stack flag. Which is probably a valid
point. However until this is clarified I think x86-64 should behave the
same for ia32 binaries as i386.
The following patch brings x86-64 in sync with i386 for ia32 binaries.
The inclusion of TCP Compound needs to be reverted at this time
because it is not 100% certain that this code conforms to the
requirements of Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 paragraph (b).

[PATCH] lockdep: disable lock debugging when kernel state becomes untrusted
Disable lockdep debugging in two situations where the integrity of the
kernel no longer is guaranteed: when oopsing and when hitting a
tainting-condition. The goal is to not get weird lockdep traces that don't
make sense or are otherwise undebuggable, to not waste time.
Lockdep assumes that the previous state it knows about is valid to operate,
which is why lockdep turns itself off after the first violation it reports,
after that point it can no longer make that assumption.
A kernel oops means that the integrity of the kernel compromised; in
addition anything lockdep would report is of lesser importance than the
oops.
All the tainting conditions are of similar integrity-violating nature and
also make debugging/diagnosing more difficult.

Currently most architectures either always build binfmt_elf32 in the kernel

modularly. This patch turns the option into a boolean aswell because elf
requires various symbols that shouldn't be available to modules. The most
urgent one is tasklist_lock whos export this patch series kills, but there
are others like force_sgi aswell.
Note that sparc doesn't allow a modular 32bit a.out handler either, and
that would be the more useful case as only few people want 32bit sunos
compatibility and 99.9% of all sparc64 users need 32bit linux native elf

system overheats. This patch switches it to kill_proc instead which has
the following advantages:
(1) gets rid of one of the last remaining tasklist_lock users
in modular code
(2) simplifies the snsc code significantly
The downside is that an init implementation could in theory block SIGPWR
and it would not get delivered. The sysvinit code used by all major

rather stupid thing to do.

[PATCH] make valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() take a pfn
Newer ARMs have a 40 bit physical address space, but mapping physical
memory above 4G needs a special page table format which we (currently?) do
not use for userspace mappings, so what happens instead is that mapping an
address >= 4G will happily discard the upper bits and wrap.
There is a valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() arch hook where we could check for
>= 4G addresses and deny the mapping, but this hook takes an unsigned long
address:
static inline int valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(unsigned long addr, size_t size);
And drivers/char/mem.c:mmap_mem() calls it like this:
When EDAC was first introduced into the kernel it had a sysfs interface,
but due to some problems it was disabled in 2.6.16 and remained disabled in
2.6.17.
With feedback, several of the control and attribute files of that interface
had some good constructive feedback. PCI Blacklist/Whitelist was a major
set which has design issues and it has been removed in this patch. Instead
of storing PCI broken parity status in EDAC, it has been moved to the
pci_dev structure itself by a previous PCI patch. A future patch will
enable that feature in EDAC by utilizing the pci_dev info.
The sysfs is now enabled in this patch, with a minimal set of control and
attribute files for examining EDAC state and for enabling/disabling the
memory and PCI operations.
The Documentation for EDAC has also been updated to reflect the new state
of EDAC operation.

[PATCH] swsusp: do not use memcpy for snapshotting memory
swsusp should not use memcpy for snapshotting memory, because on some
architectures memcpy may increase preempt_count (i386 does this when
CONFIG_X86_USE_3DNOW is set). Then, as a result, wrong value of preempt_count
is stored in the image.
Replace memcpy in copy_data_pages with an open-coded loop.

[PATCH] i386 defconfig: set CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION=""
Matthew Wilcox notified me that CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION="/dev/hda2" in the
i386 defconfig wasn't a good idea (especially since it prevented booting
for him due to another bug).
This patch sets CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION="" in the i386 defconfig.

[PATCH] FDPIC: Adjust the ELF-FDPIC driver to conform more to the CodingStyle
Adjust the ELF-FDPIC binfmt driver to conform much more to the CodingStyle,
silly though it may be.
Further changes:
(*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're
unsigned long already).
(*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting
the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise
them back together.
(*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was
actually allocated for the stack.
(*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will
not be supported in ELF-FDPIC for the foreseeable future.

[PATCH] NOMMU: Fix execution off of ramfs with mmap()
Fix execution through the FDPIC binfmt of programs stored on ramfs by
preventing the ramfs mmap() returning successfully on a private mapping of
a ramfs file. This causes NOMMU mmap to make a copy of the mapped portion
of the file and map that instead.
This could be improved by granting direct mapping access to read-only
private mappings for which the data is stored on a contiguous run of pages.
However, this is only likely to be the case if the file was extended with
truncate before being written.
ramfs is left to map the file directly for shared mappings so that SYSV IPC
and POSIX shared memory both still work.

Fix some FRV arch compile errors, including:
(*) Marking nr_kernel_pages as __meminitdata so that references to it end up
being properly calculated rather than being assumed to be in the small

causes the linker to emit errors as the offset is too big to fit into the

As for regular pages (or files), above call does work, but as for huge
pages, above call would fail because hugetlbfs_file_mmap would fail if
(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE) && len > inode->i_size).
This capability on huge page is useful on ia64 when the process wants to
protect one area on region 4, so other threads couldn't read/write this
area. A famous JVM (Java Virtual Machine) implementation on IA64 needs the
capability.

[PATCH] usb-storage: wait for URB to complete
We all failed to notice that Franck's recent update to usb-storage allowed
an URB to complete after its context data was no longer valid. This patch
(as746) makes the driver wait for the URB to complete whenever there's a
timeout.
Although timeouts in usb-storage are relatively uncommon, they do occur.
Without this patch the code in 2.6.18-rc1 will fault within an interrupt
handler, which is not nice at all.

[PATCH] powermac: Combined fixes for backlight code
This patch fixes several problems:
- pmac_backlight_key() is called under interrupt context, and therefore
can't use mutexes or semaphores, so defer the backlight level for
later, as it's not critical (original code by Aristeu S. Rozanski F.
<aris@valeta.org>).
- Add exports for functions that might be called from modules
- Fix Kconfig depdencies on PMAC_BACKLIGHT.
- Fix locking issues on calls from inside the driver (reported by
Aristeu S. Rozanski F., too)
- Fix wrong calculation of backlight values in some of the drivers
- Replace pmac_backlight_key_up/down by inline functions

The SMU driver tries to map an interrupt from the device-tree before the
interrupt controllers in the machine have been enumerated. This doesn't work
properly and cause machines like the Quad g5 to fail booting later on when
some drivers waits endlessly for an SMU request to complete. This is the
second problem preventing boot on the Quad g5. This fixes it and also makes
the SMU driver a bit more resilient to not having an interrupt.
