This patch (as609) changes the way we keep track of power budgeting for

take this information into account. (This is something we should have
been doing all along.) A new field in struct usb_device holds the amount
of bus current available from the upstream port, and the usb_hub structure
keeps track of the current available for each downstream port.
Two new rules for configuration selection are added:
Don't select a self-powered configuration when only bus power
is available.
Don't select a configuration requiring more bus power than is
available.
However the first rule is #if-ed out, because I found that the internal
hub in my HP USB keyboard claims that its only configuration is
self-powered. The rule would prevent the configuration from being chosen,
leaving the hub & keyboard unconfigured. Since similar descriptor errors
may turn out to be fairly common, it seemed wise not to include a rule
that would break automatic configuration unnecessarily for such devices.
The second rule may also trigger unnecessarily, although this should be
less common. More likely it will annoy people by sometimes failing to
accept configurations that should never have been chosen in the first
place.
The patch also changes usbcore's reaction when no configuration is
suitable. Instead of raising an error and rejecting the device, now
the core will simply leave the device unconfigured. People can always
work around such problems by installing configurations manually through
sysfs.

A driver for USB ADSL modems based on the ADI eagle chipset using the

The managing part was taken from bsd ueagle driver, other parts were

The driver uses the in-kernel firmware loader :
- to load a first usb firmware when the modem is in pre-firmware state
- to load the dsp firmware that are swapped in host memory.
- to load CMV (configuration and management variables) when the modem
boot. (We can't use options or sysfs for this as there many possible
values. See

description of some)
- to load fpga code for 930 chipset.
The device had 4 endpoints :
* 2 for data (use by usbatm). The incoming
endpoint could be iso or bulk. The modem seems buggy and produce lot's
of atm errors when using it in bulk mode for speed > 3Mbps, so iso
endpoint is need for speed > 3Mbps. At the moment iso endpoint need a
patched usbatm library and for this reason is not included in this patch.
* One bulk endpoint for uploading dsp firmware
* One irq endpoint that notices the driver
- if we need to upload a page of the dsp firmware
- an ack for read or write CMV and the value (for the read case).
If order to make the driver cleaner, we design synchronous
(read|write)_cmv :
-send a synchronous control message to the modem
-wait for an ack or a timeout
-return the value if needed.
In order to run these synchronous usb messages we need a kernel thread.
The driver has been tested with sagem fast 800 modems with different
eagle chipset revision and with ADI 930 since April 2005.

Some G5s still occasionally experience shutdowns due to overtemp
conditions despite the recent fix. After analyzing logs from such
machines, it appears that the overtemp code is a bit too quick at
shutting the machine down when reaching the critical temperature (tmax +
8) and doesn't leave the fan enough time to actually cool it down. This
happens if the temperature of a CPU suddenly rises too high in a very
short period of time, or occasionally on boot (that is the CPUs are
already overtemp by the time the driver loads).
This patches makes the code a bit more relaxed, leaving a few seconds to
the fans to do their job before kicking the machine shutown.

Insanity avoidance in /proc
The old /proc interfaces were never updated to use loff_t, and are just
generally broken. Now, we should be using the seq_file interface for
all of the proc files, but converting the legacy functions is more work
than most people care for and has little upside..
But at least we can make the non-LFS rules explicit, rather than just
insanely wrapping the offset or something.

seems to continually interact badly with some X versions.
Quoth Ben Herrenschmidt:
"So I think at this point, the best is that we keep the old bogus code
that at least is consistent with the bug in the server. I'm working on a
big patch to X that reworks the memory map stuff completely and fixes
those issues on the server side, I'll do a DRM patch matching this X fix
as well so that the memory map is only ever set in one place and with
what I hope is a correct algorithm..."

[PATCH] Hostfs: update for new glibc - add missing symbol exports
Today, when compiling UML, I got warnings for two used unexported symbols:
readdir64 and truncate64. Indeed, my glibc headers are aliasing readdir to
readdir64 and truncate to truncate64 (and so on).
I'm then adding additional exports. Since I've no idea if the symbols where
always provided in the supported glibc's, I've added weak definitions too.

Don't use printk() where "current_thread_info()" is crap.
Until when we switch to running on init_stack, current_thread_info() evaluates
to crap. Printk uses "current" at times (in detail, ¤t is evaluated with
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK to check the spinlock owner task).
And this leads to random segmentation faults.
Exactly, what happens is that ¤t = *(current_thread_info()), i.e. round
down $esp and dereference the value. I.e. access the stack below $esp, which
causes SIGSEGV on a VM_GROWSDOWN vma (see arch/i386/mm/fault.c).

[PATCH] Fix more radeon GART start calculation cases
As reported by Jules Villard <jvillard@ens-lyon.fr> and some others, the
recent GART aperture start reconfiguration causes problems on some
setups.
What I _think_ might be happening is that the X server is also trying to
muck around with the card memory map and is forcing it back into a wrong
setting that also happens to no longer match what the DRM wants to do
and blows up. There are bugs all over the place in that code (and still
some bugs in the DRM as well anyway).
This patch attempts to avoid that by using the largest of the 2 values,
which I think will cause it to behave as it used to for you and will
still fix the problem with machines that have an aperture size smaller
than the video memory.

[IPV6] mcast: Fix multiple issues in MLDv2 reports.
The below "jumbo" patch fixes the following problems in MLDv2.
1) Add necessary "ntohs" to recent "pskb_may_pull" check [breaks
all nonzero source queries on little-endian (!)]
2) Add locking to source filter list [resend of prior patch]
3) fix "mld_marksources()" to
a) send nothing when all queried sources are excluded
b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are
not excluded
c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report
NOTE: RFC 3810 specifies the source list should be saved and each
source reported individually as an IS_IN. This is an obvious DOS
path, requiring the host to store and then multicast as many sources
as are queried (e.g., millions...). This alternative sends a full,
relevant report that's limited to number of sources present on the
machine.
4) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should
The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source
list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that
short-circuit case, and also generates the group header
with an empty list if needed.
5) fix mca_crcount decrement to be after add_grec(), which needs
its original value

much thanks!
