Since version 4.1 the gcc is warning about ignored attributes. This patch is using the equivalent attribute on the struct instead of on each of the structure or union members. GCC Manual: "Specifying Attributes of Types packed This attribute, attached to struct or union type definition, specifies that each member of the structure or union is placed to minimize the memory required. When attached to an enum definition, it indicates that the smallest integral type should be used. Specifying this attribute for struct and union types is equivalent to specifying the packed attribute on each of the structure or union members."

If a 9pfs server crashes, v9fs_fd_close() is called. Subsequently, in cleaning up by performing a umount() on the FS that was provided by this server v9fs_fd_close() is called again, and uses the old, freed valus of trans->priv. This patch ensures that trans->priv can be freed only once, otherwise this function bails early.

Reorder members of the kiocb structure to make sync kiocb setup faster. By setting the elements sequentially, the write combining buffers on the CPU are able to combine the writes into a single burst, which results in fewer cache cycles being consumed, freeing them up for other code. This results in a 10-20KB/s[*] increase on the bw_unix part of LMbench on my test system. * The improvement varies based on what other patches are in the system, as there are a number of bottlenecks, so this number is not absolutely accurate.

Add a hook so architectures can validate /dev/mem mmap requests. This is analogous to validation we already perform in the read/write paths. The identity mapping scheme used on ia64 requires that each 16MB or 64MB granule be accessed with exactly one attribute (write-back or uncacheable). This avoids "attribute aliasing", which can cause a machine check. Sample problem scenario: - Machine supports VGA, so it has uncacheable (UC) MMIO at 640K-768K - efi_memmap_init() discards any write-back (WB) memory in the first granule - Application (e.g., "hwinfo") mmaps /dev/mem, offset 0 - hwinfo receives UC mapping (the default, since memmap says "no WB here") - Machine check abort (on chipsets that don't support UC access to WB memory, e.g., sx1000) In the scenario above, the only choices are - Use WB for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because it causes attribute aliasing with the UC mapping for the VGA MMIO space. - Use UC for hwinfo mmap. Can't do this because the chipset may not support UC for that region. - Disallow the hwinfo mmap with -EINVAL. That's what this patch does.

There's one scsi driver which doesn't compile due to weird __VA_ARGS__ tricks and the rather useful scsi/sd.c is currently getting an ICE. None of the new SAS code compiles, due to extensive use of anonymous unions. The V4L guys are very good at exploiting the gcc-2.95.x macro expansion bug (_why_ does each driver need to implement its own debug macros?) and various people keep on sneaking in anonymous unions, which are rather nice. Plus anonymous unions are rather useful. Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This creates a new function, cciss_interrupt_mode called from cciss_pci_init. This function determines what type of interrupt vector to use, i.e., MSI, MSI-X, or IO-APIC. One noticeable difference is changing the interrupt field of the controller struct to an array of 4 unsigned ints. The Smart Array HW is capable of generating 4 distinct interrupts depending on the transport method in use during operation. These are: #define DOORBELL_INT 0 Used to notify the contoller of configuration updates. We only use this feature when in polling mode. #define PERF_MODE_INT 0 Used when the controller is in Performant Mode. #define SIMPLE_MODE_INT 2 Used when the controller is in Simple Mode (current Linux implementation). #define MEMQ_INT_MODE 3 Not used. When using IO-APIC interrupts these 4 lines are OR'ed together so when any one fires an interrupt an is generated. In MSI or MSI-X mode this hardware OR'ing is ignored. We must register for our interrupt depending on what mode the controller is running. For Linux we use SIMPLE_MODE_INT exclusively at this time. Please consider this for inclusion.

The problem. It is expected that /sbin/halt -p works exactly like /sbin/halt, when the kernel does not implement power off functionality. The kernel can do a lot of work in the reboot notifiers and in device_shutdown before we even get to machine_power_off. Some of that shutdown is not safe if you are leaving the power on, and it definitely gets in the way of using sysrq or pressing ctrl-alt-del. Since the shutdown happens in generic code there is no way to fix this in architecture specific code :( Some machines are kernel oopsing today because of this. The simple solution is to turn LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF into LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT if power_off functionality is not implemented. This has the unfortunate side effect of disabling the power off functionality on architectures that leave pm_power_off to null and still implement something in machine_power_off. And it will break the build on some architectures that don't have a pm_power_off variable at all. On both counts I say tough. For architectures like alpha that don't implement the pm_power_off variable pm_power_off is declared in linux/pm.h and it is a generic part of our power management code, and all architectures should implement it. For architectures like parisc that have a default power off method in machine_power_off if pm_power_off is not implemented or fails. It is easy enough to set the pm_power_off variable. And nothing bad happens there, the machines just stop powering off. The current semantics are impossible without a flag at the top level so we can avoid the problem code if a power off is not implemented. pm_power_off is as good a flag as any with the bonus that it works without modification on at least x86, x86_64, powerpc, and ppc today. Andrew can you pick this up and put this in the mm tree. Kernels that don't compile or don't power off seem saner than kernels that oops or panic. Until we get the arch specific patches for the problem architectures this probably isn't smart to push into the stable kernel. Unfortunately I don't have the time at the moment to walk through every architecture and make them work. And even if I did I couldn't test it :( From: Hirokazu Takata <takata@linux-m32r.org> Add pm_power_off() for build fix of arch/m32r/kernel/process.c.
