[PATCH] __crc_... is intended to be absolute
i386 boot/compressed/relocs checks for absolute symbols and warns about
unexpected ones. If you build with modversions, you get ~2500 warnings
about __crc_<symbol>. These suckers are really absolute symbols - we
do _not_ want to modify them on relocation.
They are generated by genksyms - EXPORT_... generates a weak alias, then
genksyms produces an ld script with __crc_<symbol> = <checksum> and it's
fed to ld to produce the final object file. Their only use is to match
kernel and module at modprobe time; they _must_ be absolute.
boot/compressed/relocs has a whitelist of known absolute symbols, but
it doesn't know about __crc_... stuff. As the result, we get shitloads

[IPV6]: fix BUG of ndisc_send_redirect()
When I tested IPv6 redirect function about kernel 2.6.19.1, and found
that the kernel can send redirect packets whose target address is global
address, and the target is not the actual endpoint of communication.
But the criteria conform to RFC2461, the target address defines as
following:
Target Address An IP address that is a better first hop to use for
he ICMP Destination Address. When the target is
the actual endpoint of communication, i.e., the
destination is a neighbor, the Target Address field
MUST contain the same value as the ICMP Destination
Address field. Otherwise the target is a better
first-hop router and the Target Address MUST be the
router's link-local address so that hosts can
uniquely identify routers.
According to this definition, when a router redirect to a host, the
target address either the better first-hop router's link-local address
or the same as the ICMP destination address field. But the function of
ndisc_send_redirect() in net/ipv6/ndisc.c, does not check the target
address correctly.
There is another definition about receive Redirect message in RFC2461:
8.1. Validation of Redirect Messages
A host MUST silently discard any received Redirect message that does
not satisfy all of the following validity checks:
......
- The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when
redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination
Address (when redirected to the on-link destination).
......
And the receive redirect function of ndisc_redirect_rcv() implemented
this definition, checks the target address correctly.
if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) {
on_link = 1;
} else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) {
ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING
"ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not link-local.\n");
return;
}
So, I think the send redirect function must check the target address
also.

It's wrong. We had a lengthy analysis of this piece of code
several months ago, and it is correct.
Consider, if we run the loop and we get an error
the following happens:
1) attempt of ifb_init_one(i) fails, therefore we should
not try to "ifb_free_one()" on "i" since it failed
2) the loop iteration first increments "i", then it
check for error
Therefore we must decrement "i" twice before the first
free during the cleanup. One to "undo" the for() loop
increment, and one to "skip" the ifb_init_one() case which
failed."

[PATCH] i386: In assign_irq_vector look at all vectors before giving up
When the world was a simple and static place setting up irqs was easy.
It sufficed to allocate a linux irq number and a find a free cpu
vector we could receive that linux irq on. In those days it was
a safe assumption that any allocated vector was actually in use
so after one global pass through all of the vectors we would have
none left.
These days things are much more dynamic with interrupt controllers
(in the form of MSI or MSI-X) appearing on plug in cards and linux
irqs appearing and disappearing. As these irqs come and go vectors
are allocated and freed, invalidating the ancient assumption that all
allocated vectors stayed in use forever.
So this patch modifies the vector allocator to walk through every
possible vector before giving up, and to check to see if a vector
is in use before assigning it. With these changes we stop leaking
freed vectors and it becomes possible to allocate and free irq vectors
all day long.
This changed was modeled after the vector allocator on x86_64 where
this limitation has already been removed. In essence we don't update
the static variables that hold the position of the last vector we
allocated until have successfully allocated another vector. This
allows us to detect if we have completed one complete scan through
all of the possible vectors.

bonding: ARP monitoring broken on x86_64
While working with the latest bonding code I noticed a nasty problem that
will prevent arp monitoring from always functioning correctly on x86_64
systems. Comparing ints to longs and expecting reliable results on x86_64
is a bad idea. With this patch, arp monitoring works correctly again.

The b44 chip occasionally needs to be reset when ISTAT_ERRORS are
encountered. The reset sequence includes a PHY reset that will take many
seconds to complete and cause the link to go down and up. By skipping the
PHY reset, it will greatly reduce the interruption when ISTAT_ERRORS are
encountered.
Change the full_reset parameter to reset_kind parameter in b44_init_hw().
This will allow PHY reset to be skipped when ISTAT_ERRORS are encountered.

libata: fix translation for START STOP UNIT
libata's SCSI translation for the SCSI START STOP UNIT command with the
START bit clear (i.e. stopping the drive) appears to be incorrect. It
sends an ATA STANDBY command with the time period set to 0, which the code
comment says means "now", but the ATA standard says this means disable the
standby timer, which effectively does nothing. Change this to issue a
STANDBY IMMEDIATE command which will actually spin the drive down. The SAT
(SCSI/ATA Translation) standard revision 9 concurs with this choice.

HID: fix pb_fnmode and move it to generic HID
The apple powerbook people are used to switch the pb_fnmode
setting at runtime through writing to sysfs, altering the
module parameter value. This was broken for them in 2.6.20-rc1
when generic HID layer was introduced, as the pb_fnmode flag
was made per-hiddevice, instead of global variable.
This patch moves the pb_fnmode module parameter from usbhid module
to hid module, but apart from that retains backward compatibility
with respect to changing the mode through sysfs.

Fix balance_dirty_page() calculations with CONFIG_HIGHMEM
This makes balance_dirty_page() always base its calculations on the
amount of non-highmem memory in the machine, rather than try to base it
on total memory and then falling back on non-highmem memory if the
mapping it was writing wasn't highmem capable.
This not only fixes a situation where two different writers can have
wildly different notions about what is a "balanced" dirty state, but it
also means that people with highmem machines don't run into an OOM
situation when regular memory fills up with dirty pages.
We used to try to handle the latter case by scaling down the dirty_ratio
if the machine had a lot of highmem pages in page_writeback_init(), but
it wasn't aggressive enough for some situations, and since basing the
dirty ratio on highmem memory was broken in the first place, let's just
stop doing so.
(A variation of this theme fixed Justin Piszcz's OOM problem when
copying an 18GB file on a RAID setup).

[PATCH] ALSA: Fix sysfs breakage
The recent change for a new sysfs tree with card* object breaks the
/sys/class/sound tree if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled.
The device in each entry doesn't point the correct device object:
Also, this change breaks some drivers (like sound/arm/*) referring
card->dev directly to obtain the device object for memory handling.
This patch reverts the semantics of card->dev to the former version,
which points to a real device object. The card* object is stored in a
new card->card_dev field, instead. The device parent is chosen either
card->dev or card->card_dev according to CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED to
keep the tree compatibility.
Also, card* isn't created if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled. The
reason of card* object is a root of all beloing devices, and it makes
little sense if each sound device points to the real device object
directly.
