Pete Zaitcev [Mon, 12 Apr 2010 18:16:11 +0000 (12:16 -0600)]
HID: non-overlapping zeroing of extra bits

From my review of the way the unused bits of report are being zeroed,
it seems like there must be a bug. Currently, the zeroing is done
in hid_output_field and it covers any bits between the last used bit
and the end of the byte. But in case of, say, my keyboard, NumLock is
mask 0x01 and CapsLock is 0x02. Invoking hid_output_field for NumLock
definitely zeroes across CapsLock. The only reason this works is that
the fields are sorted by the offset.

It would be more correct and simpler to zero-fill the buffer into
which the fields are set.

The patch is tested with an IBM keyboard that is improperly sensitive
to out-of-report pad bits, the extra bits are still zeroed and the
fields continue to work as expected. It is also tested with good
keyboards.

In case, a related bug in RHEL 5 is tracked with Red Hat bug 513934.

virtio: Add memory statistics reporting to the balloon driver (V4)

Changes since V3:
 - Do not do endian conversions as they will be done in the host
 - Report stats that reference a quantity of memory in bytes
 - Minor coding style updates

Changes since V2:
 - Increase stat field size to 64 bits
 - Report all sizes in kb (not pages)
 - Drop anon_pages stat and fix endianness conversion

Changes since V1:
 - Use a virtqueue instead of the device config space

When using ballooning to manage overcommitted memory on a host, a system for
guests to communicate their memory usage to the host can provide information
that will minimize the impact of ballooning on the guests.  The current method
employs a daemon running in each guest that communicates memory statistics to a
host daemon at a specified time interval.  The host daemon aggregates this
information and inflates and/or deflates balloons according to the level of
host memory pressure.  This approach is effective but overly complex since a
daemon must be installed inside each guest and coordinated to communicate with
the host.  A simpler approach is to collect memory statistics in the virtio
balloon driver and communicate them directly to the hypervisor.

This patch enables the guest-side support by adding stats collection and
reporting to the virtio balloon driver.

net: bug fix for vlan + gro issue

Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled.
Even the tcp handshake was not taking place.
This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb
in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously
set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the
incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source.

I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7.
With this fix, the traffic starts and the test runs fine on both vlan
and non-vlan interfaces.

This bug does not happen when NAPI disabled.  After txdone there
must be at least one free tx slot.  But with NAPI, this is not
true anymore and the BUG_ON can hits on heavy load.

In this driver NAPI was enabled on 2.6.33-rc1 so this is

drm/nv50: fix instmem binding on IGPs to point at stolen system memory

This also modifies the unused PRAMIN PT entries to be all zeroes, can't
really recall why I used 9/0 initially, just that it didn't work for
some reason.  It was likely masking a bug elsewhere that's since been
fixed.

drm/nv50: improve vram page table construction

This commit changes nouveau to construct PTEs which look very much like
the ones the binary driver creates.

I presume that filling multiple PTEs identically with length flags and
the physical address of the start of a block of VRAM is a hint to the
memory controller that it need not perform additional page table lookups
for that range of addresses.
