9ec4b1f356 [PATCH] kprobes: fix single-step out of line - take2
Now that PPC64 has no-execute support, here is a second try to fix the
single step out of line during kprobe execution.  Kprobes on x86_64 already
solved this problem by allocating an executable page and using it as the
scratch area for stepping out of line.  Reuse that.

60564a313a [PATCH] cciss: remove partition info from CCISS_GETLUNINFO
This patch fulfills a promise I made to Christoph sometime back.  I am
removing the partition info from the CCISS_GETLUNINFO ioctl as I was informed
my "driver had no damn business reading that structure." ;)

The application folks are to use /proc or /sys for partition info from now on.
 I am only aware of a few apps that use this ioctl and I'm not sure they ever
used the partition info.

cd6fb584cf [PATCH] cciss: pci domain info pass 2
This is pass 2 of my patch to add pci domain info to an existing ioctl.  This
time I insert the domain between dev_fn and board_id as Willy suggested and
change the var to unsigned short to ease Christoph's concerns.  Although I
thought unsigned int was the correct var type for this.  I also thought it
didn't matter where I inserted it in the structure.

ffaa8bd6c9 [PATCH] seccomp: tsc disable
I believe at least for seccomp it's worth to turn off the tsc, not just for
HT but for the L2 cache too.  So it's up to you, either you turn it off
completely (which isn't very nice IMHO) or I recommend to apply this below
patch.

This has been tested successfully on x86-64 against current cogito
repository (i686 compiles so I didn't bother testing ;).  People selling
the cpu through cpushare may appreciate this bit for a peace of mind.

There's no way to get any timing info anymore with this applied
(gettimeofday is forbidden of course).  The seccomp environment is
completely deterministic so it can't be allowed to get timing info, it has
to be deterministic so in the future I can enable a computing mode that
does a parallel computing for each task with server side transparent
checkpointing and verification that the output is the same from all the 2/3
seller computers for each task, without the buyer even noticing (for now
the verification is left to the buyer client side and there's no
checkpointing, since that would require more kernel changes to track the
dirty bits but it'll be easy to extend once the basic mode is finished).

Eliminating a cold-cache read of the cr4 global variable will save one
cacheline during the tlb flush while making the code per-cpu-safe at the
same time.  Thanks to Mikael Pettersson for noticing the tlb flush wasn't
per-cpu-safe.

The global tlb flush can run from irq (IPI calling do_flush_tlb_all) but
it'll be transparent to the switch_to code since the IPI won't make any
change to the cr4 contents from the point of view of the interrupted code
and since it's now all per-cpu stuff, it will not race.  So no need to
disable irqs in switch_to slow path.

e4ee69c8c1 [PATCH] ppc32: Bump PMU interrupt priority
The Power Management Unit on PowerMacs is very sensitive to timeouts during
async message exchanges.  It uses rather crude protocol based on a shift
register with an interrupt and is almost continuously exchanging messages with
the host CPU on laptops.

This patch adds a routine to the open_pic driver to be able to select a PMU
driver so that it bumps it's interrupt priority to above the normal level.

This will allow PMU interrupts to occur while another interrupt is pending,
and thus reduce the risk of machine beeing abruptly shutdown by the PMU due to
a timeout in PMU communication caused by excessive interrupt latency.  The
problem is very rare, and usually just doesn't happen, but it is still useful
to make things even more robust.

bb16574681 [PATCH] 8xx: avoid "dcbst" misbehaviour with unpopulated TLB
The proposed _tlbie call at update_mmu_cache() is safe because:

Addresses for which update_mmu_cache() gets invocated are never inside the
static kernel virtual mapping, meaning that there is no risk for the
_tlbie() here to be thrashing the pinned entry, as Dan suspected.

The intermediate TLB state in which this bug can be triggered is not
visible by userspace or any other contexts, except the page fault handling
path.  So there is no need to worry about userspace dcbxxx users.

The other solution to this is to avoid dcbst misbehaviour in the first
place, which involves changing in-kernel "dcbst" callers to use 8xx
specific SPR's.

Summary:

On 8xx, cache control instructions (particularly "dcbst" from
flush_dcache_icache) fault as write operation if there is an unpopulated
TLB entry for the address in question.  To workaround that, we invalidate
the TLB here, thus avoiding dcbst misbehaviour.

86dbde9cbd [PATCH] USB Storage: retry hard errors
This patch started life as as527, and was rediffed by me.

Since the IDE interface doesn't convey much information about types of
errors, many USB-IDE adapters report all low-level errors with SK = 0x04,
which is supposed to be used only for non-recoverable errors.  As a result
the SCSI midlayer doesn't retry the command.  But quite often a retry
would succeed, whereas an unnecessary retry doesn't really hurt anything.

This patch uses a recently-implemented flag to tell the SCSI midlayer that
such hardware errors should be retried.

Second, it reduces the timeout for a device reset from 20 seconds to 5

5da0106f0b [PATCH] USB: wireless usb <linux/usb_ch9.h> declarations
This provides declarations for new requests, descriptors, and bitfields as
defined in the Wireless USB 1.0 spec.  Device support will involve a new
"Wire Adapter" device class, connecting a USB Host to a cluster of wireless
USB devices.  There will be two adapter types:

  * Host Wireless Adapter (HWA):  the downstream link is wireless, which
    connects a wireless USB host to wireless USB devices (not unlike like
    a hub) including to the second type of adapter.

  * Device Wireless Adapter (DWA): the upstream link is wireless, for
    connecting existing USB devices through wired links into the cluser.

All wireless USB devices will need persistent (and secure!) key storage, and
it's probable that Linux -- or device firmware -- will need to be involved
with that to bootstrap the initial secure key exchange.

Some user interface is required in that initial key exchange, and since the
most "hands-off" one is a wired USB link, I suspect wireless operation will
usually not be the only mode for wireless USB devices.  (Plus, devices can
recharge batteries using wired USB...)  All other key exchange protocols need
error prone user interactions, like copying and/or verifying keys.

It'll likely be a while before we have commercial Wireless USB hardware,
much less Linux implementations that know how to use it.

77078570ab [PATCH] USB: ehci-hcd - fix page pointer allocation in itd_patch()
The itd_patch() function is responsible for allocating entries in the
buffer page pointer list of the iTD.  Particularly, a new page pointer
is needed every time when buffer data crosses a page boundary.

However, there is a bug in the allocation logic: the function does not
allocate a new entry when the current transaction is the first
transaction in the iTD (as indicated by first!=0).

The consequence is that, when the data of the first transaction begins
somewhere at the end of a page so that it actually does cross the page
boundary, no new page pointer is allocated.  This means that the data
at the end of the first transaction (beyond the page boundary) will be
accessed by the HC using the second page pointer, which is zero.
Furthermore, the first page pointer will be later overwritten by the
page pointers of the other transactions, which will garble it because
the value is or-ed into the iTD field.

All this particular check (for !first) does is cause incorrect
behaviour, so it should be entirely removed (and with it the variable
first that is not used for anything else).

e07fefa6b2 [PATCH] USB UHCI: Detect invalid ports
This patch changes the way uhci-hcd detects valid ports.  The
specification doesn't mention any way to find out how many ports a
controller has, so the driver has to use some heuristics, reading the port
status and control register and deciding whether the value makes sense.
With this patch the driver will recognize a typical failure mode (all bits
set to one) for nonexistent ports and won't assume there are always at
least 2 ports -- such an assumption seems silly if the heuristics have
already shown that the ports don't exist.
