Bjorn Helgaas f032f90809 [IA64] SGI SN drivers: don't report !sn2 hardware as an error

Mark Brown 28e02bac9c [PATCH] Add missing ifdef for VIA RNG code
Almost all the code for the VIA RNG is guarded with __i386__ #ifdefs,
the only exception being the enumeration of RNG types which is used to
index into the rng_vector ops array.  This patch adds an ifdef around
that for consistency and since the guard makes a difference when adding
new RNG types on non-i386 hardware.

Marc Zyngier d904ffd6e0 [PATCH] Fix Specialix SX corruption
With the latest kernels, I experienced some strange corruption, some
'*****' being randomly inserted in the character flow, like this:

	ashes:~#
	ashes:~#
	a*******shes:~#
	ashes:~#
	ashes:~#

Further investigation shows that the problem was introduced during
Alan's "TTY layer buffering revamp" patch, the amount of data to be
copied being reduced after buffer allocation.  Moving the count fixup
around solves the problem.

Michal Ostrowski fb5c594c2a [PATCH] Fix race condition in hvc console.
tty_schedule_flip() would schedule a thread that would call flush_to_ldisc().
If tty_buffer_request_room() gets called prior to that thread running --
which is likely in this loop in hvc_poll(), it would set the active flag
in the tty buffer and consequently flush_to_ldisc() would ignore it.

The result is that input on the hvc console is not processed.

This fix calls tty_flip_buffer_push (and flags the tty as
"low_latency").  The push to the ldisc thus happens synchronously.

Christoph Lameter 9b0f8b040a [PATCH] Terminate process that fails on a constrained allocation
Some allocations are restricted to a limited set of nodes (due to memory
policies or cpuset constraints).  If the page allocator is not able to find
enough memory then that does not mean that overall system memory is low.

In particular going postal and more or less randomly shooting at processes
is not likely going to help the situation but may just lead to suicide (the
whole system coming down).

It is better to signal to the process that no memory exists given the
constraints that the process (or the configuration of the process) has
placed on the allocation behavior.  The process may be killed but then the
sysadmin or developer can investigate the situation.  The solution is
similar to what we do when running out of hugepages.

This patch adds a check before we kill processes.  At that point
performance considerations do not matter much so we just scan the zonelist
and reconstruct a list of nodes.  If the list of nodes does not contain all
online nodes then this is a constrained allocation and we should kill the
current process.

Bjorn Helgaas be5efffb76 [PATCH] HPET: handle multiple ACPI EXTENDED_IRQ resources
When the _CRS for a single HPET contains multiple EXTENDED_IRQ resources,
we overwrote hdp->hd_nirqs every time we found one.

So the driver worked when all the IRQs were described in a single
EXTENDED_IRQ resource, but failed when multiple resources were used.
(Strictly speaking, I think the latter is actually more correct, but both
styles have been used.)

Someday we should remove all the ACPI stuff from hpet.c and use PNP driver
registration instead.  But currently PNP_MAX_IRQ is 2, and HPETs often have
more IRQs.  Hint, hint, Adam :-)

Paul Fulghum da965822ab [PATCH] tty reference count fix
Fix hole where tty structure can be released when reference count is non
zero.  Existing code can sleep without tty_sem protection between deciding
to release the tty structure (setting local variables tty_closing and
otty_closing) and setting TTY_CLOSING to prevent further opens.  An open
can occur during this interval causing release_dev() to free the tty
structure while it is still referenced.

This should fix bugzilla.kernel.org [Bug 6041] New: Unable to handle kernel
paging request

In Bug 6041, tty_open() oopes on accessing the tty structure it has
successfully claimed.  Bug was on SMP machine with the same tty being

Jayachandran C 12fc1d7b4b [PATCH] IPMI: fix issues reported by Coverity in ipmi_msghandler.c
While looking to the report by Coverity in ipmi, I came across the
following issue:

The IPMI message handler relies on two defines which are the same -one in
include/linux/ipmi.h
#define IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS 0x10
and one in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.
#define IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS       16
These are used interchangeably in ipmi_msghandler.c, but since the array
addr->channels[] is of size IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS, I have made a patch that
uses IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS for all the checks for the array index.

NOTE: You could probably remove the line that defines IPMI_NUM_CHANNELS
from ipmi.h, or move IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS to ipmi.h

uses a new tty buffering specific lock enforced centrally in the tty

functions instead of accessing tty buffering internals directly.  This is
required for the new locking to work.
