So, by the time we send it out, the tso_size information can be stale due

John W. Linville [Fri, 5 Aug 2005 01:06:10 +0000 (18:06 -0700)]
[PATCH] PCI: restore BAR values after D3hot->D0 for devices that need it

Some PCI devices (e.g. 3c905B, 3c556B) lose all configuration
(including BARs) when transitioning from D3hot->D0.  This leaves such
a device in an inaccessible state.  The patch below causes the BARs
to be restored when enabling such a device, so that its driver will
be able to access it.

The patch also adds pci_restore_bars as a new global symbol, and adds a
correpsonding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for that.

Some firmware (e.g. Thinkpad T21) leaves devices in D3hot after a
(re)boot.  Most drivers call pci_enable_device very early, so devices
left in D3hot that lose configuration during the D3hot->D0 transition
will be inaccessible to their drivers.

Drivers could be modified to account for this, but it would
be difficult to know which drivers need modification.  This is
especially true since often many devices are covered by the same
driver.  It likely would be necessary to replicate code across dozens
of drivers.

The patch below should trigger only when transitioning from D3hot->D0
(or at boot), and only for devices that have the "no soft reset" bit
cleared in the PM control register.  I believe it is safe to include
this patch as part of the PCI infrastructure.

The cleanest implementation of pci_restore_bars was to call
pci_update_resource.  Unfortunately, that does not currently exist
for the sparc64 architecture.  The patch below includes a null
implemenation of pci_update_resource for sparc64.

Some have expressed interest in making general use of the the
pci_restore_bars function, so that has been exported to GPL licensed
modules.

The problem occurs in three stages:

 (1) The key allocator initialises the type-specific data to all zeroes. In
     the case of a keyring, this will become a link in the keyring name list
     when the keyring is instantiated.

 (2) If a user (any user) attempts to add a keyring with anything other than
     an empty payload, the keyring instantiation function will fail with an
     error and won't add the keyring to the name list.

 (3) The keyring's destructor then sees that the keyring has a description
     (name) and tries to remove the keyring from the name list, which oopses
     because the link pointers are both zero.

This bug permits any user to take down a box trivially.

     A key is permitted to by read by a process if it doesn't grant read

[PATCH] Remove suspend() calls from shutdown path

This removes the calls to device_suspend() from the shutdown path that
were added sometime during 2.6.13-rc*.  They aren't working properly on
a number of configs (I got reports from both ppc powerbook users and x86
users) causing the system to not shutdown anymore.

I think it isn't the right approach at the moment anyway.  We have
already a shutdown() callback for the drivers that actually care about
shutdown and the suspend() code isn't yet in a good enough shape to be
so much generalized.  Also, the semantics of suspend and shutdown are
slightly different on a number of setups and the way this was patched in
provides little way for drivers to cleanly differenciate.  It should
have been at least a different message.

For 2.6.13, I think we should revert to 2.6.12 behaviour and have a
working suspend back.

On PXA255 there is no way to disable the watchdog. Turning off OIER[E3]

I posted a note to the ARM mailing list a little while ago asking for

believes that the SA1100 is the same as the PXA255 in this respect.

You also asked me to involve the watchdog maintainer which I tried to
do but didn't hear anything back. There are only a couple of other
drivers which can't stop the watchdog and there seems to be no
consistancy regarding printing an error etc. I decided to print
something since that matches the case for all the other drivers when
NOWAYOUT is turned on.

Also, I changed the device .name to "watchdog" like most of the other
watchdogs. udev uses it as the device name (by default) and spaces etc.
get in the way.

these ports. Especially with modular kernel.

apply _only_ to the root bus resources - see Linus' change in

pci: make bus resource start address override minimum IO address

The reason we have PCIBIOS_MIN_IO and PCIBIOS_MIN_CARDBUS_IO is because
we want to protect badly documented motherboard PCI resources and thus
don't want to allocate new resources in low IO/MEM space.

However, if we have already discovered a PCI bridge with a specified
resource base, that should override that decision.

This change will allow us to move the "careful" region upwards without
resulting in problems allocating resources in low mappings.  This was
brought on by us having allocated a bus resource at 0x1000, conflicting

[PATCH] Obvious bugfix for yenta resource allocation

Recent changes (well, dating from 12 July) have broken cardbus on my
powerbook: I get 3 messages saying "no resource of type xxx available,
trying to continue", and if I plug in my wireless card, it complains
that there are no resources allocated to the card.  This all worked in
2.6.12.

Looking at the code in yenta_socket.c, function yenta_allocate_res,
it's obvious what is wrong: if we get to line 639 (i.e. there wasn't a
usable preassigned resource), we will always flow through to line 668,
which is the printk that I was seeing, even if a resource was
successfully allocated.  It looks to me as though there should be a
return statement after the two config_writel's in each of the 3
branches of the if statements, so that the function returns after
successfully setting up the resource.

The default resync_max_sector is set to "mddev->size << 1".  If the
raid-personality-module updates mddev->size, it must update
resync_max_sectors too.

[PATCH] V4L: Miscellaneous fixes

- Fixed some bttv card numbers.

- BTTV and SAA7134 version numbers incremented to reflect changes.

- pci_dma_supported() is called after pci_set_dma_mask() which
  already did check that for us. This patch removes the unneeded call to
  pci_dma_supported() at bttv-driver.c

- Ensure a sufficient I2C bus idle time between 2 messages for
  saa7134-i2c.c

- It is important to write at first to MO_GP3_IO for cx88-tvaudio.c

- Use try_to_freeze() instead of refrigerator at msp3400.c

- Recognizing the MFPE05-2 Tuner at tveeprom.c

- Add new parameter to help identify radio chipsets at tuner module:
  show_i2c=1 will show 16 reading bytes from detected tuners.

- BTTV does generate some Unimplemented IOCTL log at tuner module:
  0x40046d11(dir=1,tp=0x6d,nr=17,sz=4) means that it is sending
  MSP3400 calls to non-msp3400 tuners. Warning eliminated.
  VIDIOSAUDIO is also called, so debug messages updated. It is still
  requiring IOCTL implementation.

- Added two more tuners.

- Add support for the SVideo input on the GDI Black Gold.

[PATCH] disable addres space randomization default on transmeta CPUs

We know that the randomisation slows down some workloads on Transmeta CPUs
by quite large amounts.  We think it's because the CPU needs to recode the
same x86 instructions when they pop up at a different virtual address after
a fork+exec.

So disable randomization by default on those CPUs.
