When I tried Ben's patches to the powermac sound driver on my G5, I found that it was taking enormous numbers of sound DMA transmit interrupts. This turned out to be because it was incorrectly configured as level-sensitive instead of edge-sensitive, which in turn was because the code that parses the interrupt tree that Open Firmware gives us was incorrectly assigning another device the same irq number as the sound DMA transmit interrupt (i.e. 1). This patch fixes the problem, in a somewhat quick and dirty way for now, but one which will work for all the machines we currently run on. Ultimately Ben and I want to do something more general and robust, but this should go in for 2.6.12.

This patch from Roland adds a PT_NOTE section to both 32 and 64 bits vDSOs to expose the kernel version to glibc, thus avoiding a uname syscall on every launch. This is equivalent to the patches Roland posted already for x86 and x86-64. Note: the 64 bits .note is actually using the 32 bits format. This is normal. The ELF spec specifies a different format for 64 bits .note, but for some reason, this was never properly implemented, the core dumps for example are all using 32 bits format .note, and binutils cannot even read a 64 bits format .note. Talking to our toolchain folks, they think we'd rather stick to 32 bits format .note everywhere and get the spec fixed some day ...

Ben's patch that shutdowns master switch and restores it after resume ("pmac: Improve sleep code of tumbler driver") isn't enough here on an iBook (snapper chip). The master switch is correctly saved and restored, but somehow tumbler_put_master_volume() gets called just after tumbler_set_master_volume() and sets mix->master_vol[*] to 0. So, on resuming, the master switch is reenabled, but the volume is set to 0. Here's a patch that also saves and restores master_vol.

This patch applies on top of my previous g5 related sound patches and adds support for the Mac Mini to the PowerMac Alsa driver. However, I haven't found any kind of HW support for volume control on this machine. If it exist, it's well hidden. That means that you probably want to make sure you use software with the ability to do soft volume control, or use Alsa 0.9 pre-release with the softvol plugin.

I noticed an occasional crash on wakeup from sleep on my powerbook (strangly never happened before, probably timing related) that appears to be due to a dangling interrupt while the chip is put to sleep and beeing reset on wakeup. This patch fixes is by disabling the irq in the ide pmac driver while asleep and only re-enable it after the chip has been fully reset. This is safe to do so as the interrupt of these apple IDE cells is never shared.

Some G3 CPUs can crash in funny way if a store from an FPU register instruction is executed on a register that has never been initialized since power on. This patch fixes it by making sure all FP registers have been properly initialized at kernel boot and when waking from sleep. It also makes the code that decides wether HID0_BTIC and HID0_DPM are allowed on a given CPU smarter (it can actually _clear_ them now if they are not allowed instead of just setting them when they are allowed in case the firmware got them wrong) Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This patch provides finer grained permissions for the audit family of Netlink sockets under SELinux. 1. We need a way to differentiate between privileged and unprivileged reads of kernel data maintained by the audit subsystem. The AUDIT_GET operation is unprivileged: it returns the current status of the audit subsystem (e.g. whether it's enabled etc.). The AUDIT_LIST operation however returns a list of the current audit ruleset, which is considered privileged by the audit folk. To deal with this, a new SELinux permission has been implemented and applied to the operation: nlmsg_readpriv, which can be allocated to appropriately privileged domains. Unprivileged domains would only be allocated nlmsg_read. 2. There is a requirement for certain domains to generate audit events from userspace. These events need to be collected by the kernel, collated and transmitted sequentially back to the audit daemon. An example is user level login, an auditable event under CAPP, where login-related domains generate AUDIT_USER messages via PAM which are relayed back to auditd via the kernel. To prevent handing out nlmsg_write permissions to such domains, a new permission has been added, nlmsg_relay, which is intended for this type of purpose: data is passed via the kernel back to userspace but no privileged information is written to the kernel. Also, AUDIT_LOGIN messages are now valid only for kernel->user messaging, so this value has been removed from the SELinux nlmsgtab (which is only used to check user->kernel messages).

The patch makes the following function calls available to allocate memory on a specific node without changing the basic operation of the slab allocator: kmem_cache_alloc_node(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags, int node); kmalloc_node(size_t size, unsigned int flags, int node); in a similar way to the existing node-blind functions: kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags); kmalloc(size, flags); kmem_cache_alloc_node was changed to pass flags and the node information through the existing layers of the slab allocator (which lead to some minor rearrangements). The functions at the lowest layer (kmem_getpages, cache_grow) are already node aware. Also __alloc_percpu can call kmalloc_node now.

Mempool is pretty clever. Looks too clever for its own good :) It shouldn't really know so much about page reclaim internals. - don't guess about what effective page reclaim might involve. - don't randomly flush out all dirty data if some unlikely thing happens (alloc returns NULL). page reclaim can (sort of :P) handle it. I think the main motivation is trying to avoid pool->lock at all costs. However the first allocation is attempted with __GFP_WAIT cleared, so it will be 'can_try_harder' if it hits the page allocator. So if allocation still fails, then we can probably afford to hit the pool->lock - and what's the alternative? Try page reclaim and hit zone->lru_lock? A nice upshot is that we don't need to do any fancy memory barriers or do (intentionally) racy access to pool-> fields outside the lock.

Mempools have 2 problems. The first is that mempool_alloc can possibly get stuck in __alloc_pages when they should opt to fail, and take an element from their reserved pool. The second is that it will happily eat emergency PF_MEMALLOC reserves instead of going to their reserved pools. Fix the first by passing __GFP_NORETRY in the allocation calls in mempool_alloc. Fix the second by introducing a __GFP_MEMPOOL flag which directs the page allocator not to allocate from the reserve pool.

Removing the dependency on vmlinux for the install target raised a few complaints, so instead a new target i added: kernel_install. kernel_install will install the kernel just like the ordinary install target. The only difference is that install has a dependency on vmlinux, kernel_install does not. Therefore kernel_install is the best choice when accessing the kernel over a NFS mount or as another user. kernel_install is similar to modules_install in the fact that neither does a full kernel compile before performing the install. In this way they are good for root use. Also added back the dependency on vmlinux for the install target so peoples scripts are no longer broken.
