The size of the skb carrying the netlink message is not

against the original packet size to determine if packet
mangling is desired, due to the above wrong assumption
arbitary packets may not be mangled depening on their

Patch from Catalin Marinas
Chapter B2.7.3 in the latest ARM ARM (with v6 information) states that
the completion of a TLB maintenance operation is only guaranteed by
the execution of a DSB (Data Syncronization Barrier, formerly Data
Write Barrier or Drain Write Buffer).
Note that a DSB is only needed in the flush_tlb_kernel_* functions
since the completion is guaranteed by a mode change (i.e. switching

[TG3]: Add DMA address workaround
Add DMA workaround for chips that do not support full 64-bit DMA
addresses.
5714, 5715, and 5780 chips only support DMA addresses less than 40
bits. On 64-bit systems with IOMMU, set the dma_mask to 40-bit so
that pci_map_xxx() calls will map the DMA address below 40 bits if
necessary. On 64-bit systems without IOMMU, set the dma_mask to
64-bit and check for DMA addresses exceeding the limit in
tg3_start_xmit().
5788 only supports 32-bit DMA so need to set the mask appropriately
also.

Change the format of numa_maps to be more compact and contain additional
information that is useful for managing and troubleshooting memory on a
NUMA system. Numa_maps can now also support huge pages.
Fixes:
1. More compact format. Only display fields if they contain additional
information.
2. Always display information for all vmas. The old numa_maps did not display
vma with no mapped entries. This was a bit confusing because page
migration removes ptes for file backed vmas. After page migration
a part of the vmas vanished.
3. Rename maxref to maxmap. This is the maximum mapcount of all the pages
in a vma and may be used as an indicator as to how many processes
may be using a certain vma.
4. Include the ability to scan over huge page vmas.

[CIFS] Always match oplock break (cache notification) to the right tcp

Fixes slow response when cifs client is mounted to shares on multiple

match first, we searched for the wrong cached files to send oplock break
response for which usually meant that no matching file was found and thus
the server would have to timeout the notification. Oplock break timeout is
about 20 seconds on some servers so this could cause significantly slower
performance on file open calls in a few cases (in particular when multiple
shares are mounted from multiple servers, tree ids match, and we have a

remove_from_swap() currently attempts to use page_lock_anon_vma to obtain
an anon_vma lock. That is not working since the page may have been
remapped via swap ptes in order to move the page.
However, do_migrate_pages() obtain the mmap_sem lock and therefore there is
a guarantee that the anonymous vma will not vanish from under us. There is
therefore no need to use page_lock_anon_vma.

[PATCH] pnp bus type fix
This is Adam's pnp probing fix. It's been reported to fix hangs on several
people's machines. I don't know if it's official or final, and Adam isn't
contactable at present. But I'm not aware of the patch causing any
regressions.

[PATCH] drivers/mtd/redboot.c: recognise a foreign byte sex partition table
The RedBoot boot loader writes flash partition tables containing native
byte sex 32 bit values. When booting an opposite byte sex kernel (e.g. an
LE kernel from BE RedBoot) the current MTD driver fails to handle the
partition table and therefore is unable to generate the correct partition
map for the flash.
So far as I am aware this problem is ARM specific, because only ARM
supports software change of the CPU (memory system) byte sex, however the
partition table parsing is in generic MTD code. The patch below has been
tested on NSLU2 (an IXP4XX based system) with a patch,
10-ixp4xx-copy-from.patch (submitted to linux-arm-kernel - it's ARM
specific) required to make the maps/ixp4xx.c driver work with an LE kernel.
Builds of the patched system are in the 'unstable' release of OpenSlug and
UcSlugC available from www.nslu2-linux.org. These builds are BE, the
archives at www.nslu2-linux.org and www.handhelds.org (see
monotone.vanille.de) can be built LE (currently DISTRO targets
nslu-ltu.conf for LE thumb uclibc (32 bit kernel) and nslu2-lau.conf,
nslu2-lag.conf for LE arm uclibc/glibc) and this patch has been tested
extensively will both BE and LE systems on the NSLU2 (including swapping
between BE and LE by reflashing from both RedBoot and Linux).
The patch recognises that the FIS directory (the partition table) is
byte-reversed by examining the partition table size, which is known to be
one erase block (this is an assumption made elsewhere in redboot.c). If
the size matches the erase block after byte swapping the value then
byte-reversal is assumed, if not no further action is taken. The patched
code is fail safe; should redboot.c be changed to support a partition table
with a modified size field the test will fail and the partition table will
be assumed to have the host byte sex.
If byte-reversal is detected the patch byte swaps the remainder of the 32
bit fields in the copy of the table; this copy is then used to set up the
MTD partition map.
