accordinly.  I have a slght concern that the resulting console message is
too long, feedback welcome.

For powerpc it also unifies the 32bit and 64bit behaviour.

[PATCH] knfsd: Fix stale file handle problem with subtree_checking.

A recent commit (7fc90ec93a5eb71f4b08403baf5ba7176b3ec6b1) moved the
call to nfsd_setuser out of the 'find a dentry for a filehandle' branch
of fh_verify so that it would always be called.

This had the unfortunately side-effect of moving *after* the call to
decode_fh, so the prober fsuid was not set when nfsd_acceptable was called,
the 'permission' check did the wrong thing.

This patch moves the nfsd_setuser call back where it was, and add as call
in the other branch of the if.

{en,dis}able_irq().  For shared IRQs, the IRQ must be enabled so long as at

enabled or disabled as a "wakeup event" source after a series of calls to
{en,dis}able_irq_wake().  For shared IRQs, the IRQ must be enabled as a
wakeup source during sleep so long as at least one driver needs it.  But
right now they _don't have_ that refcounting ...  which means sharing a
wakeup-capable IRQ can't work correctly in some configurations.

This patch adds the refcount and flag mechanisms to set_irq_wake() -- which
is what {en,dis}able_irq_wake() call -- and minimal documentation of what
the irq wake mechanism does.

[PATCH] x86_64: Calgary IOMMU - Multi-Node NULL pointer dereference fix

Calgary hits a NULL pointer dereference when booting in a multi-chassis
NUMA system.  See Redhat bugzilla number 198498, found by Konrad
Rzeszutek (konradr@redhat.com).

There are many issues that had to be resolved to fix this problem.
Firstly when I originally wrote the code to handle NUMA systems, I
had a large misunderstanding that was not corrected until now.  That was
that I thought the "number of nodes online" referred to number of
physical systems connected.  So that if NUMA was disabled, there
would only be 1 node and it would only show that node's PCI bus.
In reality if NUMA is disabled, the system displays all of the
connected chassis as one node but is only ignorant of the delays
in accessing main memory.  Therefore, references to num_online_nodes()
and MAX_NUMNODES are incorrect and need to be set to the maximum
number of nodes that can be accessed (which are 8).  I created a
variable, MAX_NUM_CHASSIS, and set it to 8 to fix this.

Secondly, when walking the PCI in detect_calgary, the code only
checked the first "slot" when looking to see if a device is present.
This will work for most cases, but unfortunately it isn't always the
case.  In the NUMA MXE drawers, there are USB devices present on the
3rd slot (with slot 1 being empty).  So, to work around this, all
slots (up to 8) are scanned to see if there are any devices present.

Lastly, the bus is being enumerated on large systems in a different
way the we originally thought.  This throws the ugly logic we had
out the window.  To more elegantly handle this, I reorganized the
kva array to be sparse (which removed the need to have any bus number
to kva slot logic in tce.c) and created a secondary space array to
contain the bus number to phb mapping.

With these changes Calgary boots on an x460 with 4 nodes with and
without NUMA enabled.

[PATCH] pi-futex: robust-futex exit

Fix robust PI-futexes to be properly unlocked on unexpected exit.

For this to work the kernel has to know whether a futex is a PI or a
non-PI one, because the semantics are different.  Since the space in
relevant glibc data structures is extremely scarce, the best solution is
to encode the 'PI' information in bit 0 of the robust list pointer.
Existing (non-PI) glibc robust futexes have this bit always zero, so the
ABI is kept.  New glibc with PI-robust-futexes will set this bit.

[PATCH] x86_64: Dump leftover backtrace entries when dwarf2 unwinder got stuck

The dwarf2 unwinder currently often gets stuck because a lot
of assembly code doesn't have proper dwarf2 annotiation yet.

This currently often happens with __down. Should fix this by
adding proper dwarf2 annotation to all inline assembly. However
until that's done we need a quick fix for 2.6.18 to avoid
incomplete backtraces.

So when this happens dump the rest of the stack with the old unwinder
instead of silently not dumping it. There was already a optional
"both" mode that dumped both, but that was too ugly.

I also clarified the headers for the different backtraces a bit.

Also add a clear error message for missing dwarf2
annotation that people can work on.

And I removed a dead variable left over from Ingo's changes.

[ARM] Fix SMP booting

Processor support files now use r6 in their CPU setup code, so
we can't rely on r6 being preserved.  Use r7 instead.

18 years ago[PATCH] fix compile regression for a few scsi drivers

[PATCH] fix compile regression for a few scsi drivers

This fixes three drivers to compile again after my patch that removes
the data_cmnd member from struct scsi_cmnd.

The fas216 change is trivial, it should have been using ->cmnd all the
time.

NCR53C9 (which seem to be mostly duplicate driver with esp.c!) is doing
something odd, it should only have looked at ->cmnd before not the saved
copy that is kept for the error handlers sake.  Note that it really
should deal with the sync setting themselves but use the generic domain
validation code that get this right - but that's for later let's push
this simple compile fix for now.

And sorry for the late fix for this, I have been busy with OLS and
associated activities last week.
