Patch from George G. Davis
Resolve ARM1136 VIPT non-aliasing cache coherency issues observed when
using ptrace to set breakpoints and cleanup copy_{to,from}_user_page()
while we're here as requested by Russell King because "it's also far
too heavy on non-v6 CPUs".
NOTES:
1. Only access_process_vm() calls copy_{to,from}_user_page().
2. access_process_vm() calls get_user_pages() to pin down the "page".
3. get_user_pages() calls flush_dcache_page(page) which ensures cache
coherency between kernel and userspace mappings of "page". However
flush_dcache_page(page) may not invalidate I-Cache over this range
for all cases, specifically, I-Cache is not invalidated for the VIPT
non-aliasing case. So memory is consistent between kernel and user
space mappings of "page" but I-Cache may still be hot over this
range. IOW, we don't have to worry about flush_cache_page() before
memcpy().
4. Now, for the copy_to_user_page() case, after memcpy(), we must flush
the caches so memory is consistent with kernel cache entries and
invalidate the I-Cache if this mm region is executable. We don't
need to do anything after memcpy() for the copy_from_user_page()
case since kernel cache entries will be invalidated via the same
process above if we access "page" again. The flush_ptrace_access()
function (borrowed from SPARC64 implementation) is added to handle
cache flushing after memcpy() for the copy_to_user_page() case.

Patch from David Brownell
This adds RTC support to the csb337 default config. Both the AT91
and the ds1307 RTCs are enabled (rtc0 and rtc1 respectively).
The ds1307 is used to initialize the system time, since it's battery-backed.
From then on the AT91 RTC is used, since it's more capable (with both
alarm and update irqs, and system wakeup capability) even though it
needs manual initialization (symlink /dev/rtc to /dev/rtc0 for older
versions of hwclock, then "hwclock --systohc") in an rc script or
from inittab.

instead of -march=armv4t, which means that any use of bx will bomb out.

Change the list of cpus allowed to tasks in the top (root) cpuset to
dynamically track what cpus are online, using a CPU hotplug notifier. Make
this top cpus file read-only.
On systems that have cpusets configured in their kernel, but that aren't
actively using cpusets (for some distros, this covers the majority of
systems) all tasks end up in the top cpuset.
If that system does support CPU hotplug, then these tasks cannot make use
of CPUs that are added after system boot, because the CPUs are not allowed
in the top cpuset. This is a surprising regression over earlier kernels
that didn't have cpusets enabled.
In order to keep the behaviour of cpusets consistent between systems
actively making use of them and systems not using them, this patch changes
the behaviour of the 'cpus' file in the top (root) cpuset, making it read
only, and making it automatically track the value of cpu_online_map. Thus
tasks in the top cpuset will have automatic use of hot plugged CPUs allowed
by their cpuset.

driving the fix, and earlier versions of this patch.

If we
- shut down a clean array,
- restart with one (or more) drive(s) missing
- make some changes
- pause, so that they array gets marked 'clean',
the event count on the superblock of included drives
will be the same as that of the removed drives.
So adding the removed drive back in will cause it
to be included with no resync.
To avoid this, we only update the eventcount backwards when the array
is not degraded. In this case there can (should) be no non-connected
drives that we can get confused with, and this is the particular case
where updating-backwards is valuable.

1) When we allocated last fragment in ufs_truncate, we read page, check
if block mapped to address, and if not trying to allocate it. This is
wrong behaviour, fragment may be NOT allocated, but mapped, this
happened because of "block map" function not checked allocated fragment
or not, it just take address of the first fragment in the block, add
offset of fragment and return result, this is correct behaviour in
almost all situation except call from ufs_truncate.
2) Almost all implementation of UFS, which I can investigate have such
"defect": if you have full disk, and try truncate file, for example 3GB
to 2MB, and have hole in this region, truncate return -ENOSPC. I tried
evade from this problem, but "block allocation" algorithm is tied to
right value of i_lastfrag, and fix of this corner case may slow down of
ordinaries scenarios, so this patch makes behavior of "truncate"
operations similar to what other UFS implementations do.

On UFS, this scenario:
open(O_TRUNC)
lseek(1024 * 1024 * 80)
write("A")
lseek(1024 * 2)
write("A")
may cause access to invalid address.
This happened because of "goal" is calculated in wrong way in block
allocation path, as I see this problem exists also in 2.4.
We use construction like this i_data[lastfrag], i_data array of pointers to
direct blocks, indirect and so on, it has ceratain size ~20 elements, and
lastfrag may have value for example 40000.
Also this patch fixes related to handling such scenario issues, wrong

While testing Moxa C218T/PCI on PowerPC 405EP I found that loading firmware
using the linux kernel driver fails because calculation of the checksum is
not endianess independent in the original code.
After I fixed this I found that uploading firmware in a system with
multiple cards causes a kernel oops. I had a look in the recent moxa
sources and found that they do some kind of locking there. Applying this
lock fixed the problem.
Alan sayeth:
Checksum changes are clearly correct. Other changes is an improvement but
not I think enough to handle malicious firmware attacks. That said such an
attacker has CAP_SYS_RAWIO anyway so that part is irrelevant except for

OK, I'm having a look here; its all new to me so bear with me.
blkdev_open() calls
do_open(bdev, ...,BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) and takes
mutex_lock_nested(&bdev->bd_mutex, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL)
then something fails, and we're thrown to:
out_first: where
if (bdev != bdev->bd_contains)
blkdev_put(bdev->bd_contains) which is
__blkdev_put(bdev->bd_contains, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) which does
mutex_lock_nested(&bdev->bd_contains->bd_mutex, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) <--- lockdep trigger
When going to out_first, dbev->bd_contains is either bdev or whole, and
since we take the branch it must be whole. So it seems to me the
following patch would be the right one:

Recently a patch was added for preliminary suspend/resume handling on
!PPC_PMAC. However, this broke both suspend and firewire on powerpc
because it saves the pci state after the device has already been disabled.
This moves the save state to before the pmac specific code.

Sergey Vlasov noticed that there is not kernel.suid_dumpable, but
fs.suid_dumpable.
How KERN_SETUID_DUMPABLE ended up in fs_table[]? Hell knows...

When cdev_add() failed there is no reason to call cdev_del().
