      [PATCH] fix black/white-only svideo input in vpx3220 decoder · de21eb63
      Ronald S. Bultje 提交于
      Fix the fact that the svideo input will only give input in black/white in
      some circumstances.  Reason is that in the PCI controller driver (zr36067),
      after setting input, we reset norm, which overwrites the input register
      with the default.  This patch makes it always set the correct value for the
      input when changing norm.

      [PATCH] fix vpx3220 offset issue in SECAM · 9b3acc21
      Ronald S. Bultje 提交于
      Fix bug #5404 in kernel bugzilla.
      
      It basically updates the vpx3220 initialization tables with some newer
      values that we've had in CVS for a while (and that, for some reason, never
      ended up in the kernel...  must've gotten lost).  Those fix a ~16 pixels
      noise at the top of the picture in at least SECAM, although (now that I
      think about it) PAL was probably affected, also.

      [PATCH] SVGATextMode fix · 0aec4867
      Samuel Thibault 提交于
      Fix bug 5441.
      
      I didn't know about messy programs like svgatextmode...  Couldn't this be
      integrated in some linux/drivers/video/console/svgacon.c ?...  So because
      of the existence of the svgatextmode program, the kernel is not supposed to
      touch to CRT_OVERFLOW/SYNC_END/DISP/DISP_END/OFFSET ?
      
      Disabling the check in vgacon_resize() might help indeed, but I'm really
      not sure whether it will work for any chipset: in my patch, CRT registers
      are set at each console switch, since stty rows/cols apply to consoles
      separately...
      
      The attached solution is to keep the test, but if it fails, we assume that
      the caller knows what it does (i.e.  it is svgatextmode) and then disable
      any further call to vgacon_doresize.  Svgatextmode is usually used to
      _expand_ the display, not to shrink it.  And it is harmless in the case of
      a too big stty rows/cols: the display will just be cropped.  I tested it on
      my laptop, and it works fine with svgatextmode.
      
      A better solution would be that svgatextmode explicitely tells the kernel
      not to care about video timing, but for this an interface needs be defined
      and svgatextmode be patched.

      [PATCH] list: add missing rcu_dereference on first element · b24d18aa
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      It seems that all the list_*_rcu primitives are missing a memory barrier
      on the very first dereference.  For example,
      
      #define list_for_each_rcu(pos, head) \
      	for (pos = (head)->next; prefetch(pos->next), pos != (head); \
      		pos = rcu_dereference(pos->next))
      
      It will go something like:
      
      	pos = (head)->next
      
      	prefetch(pos->next)
      
      	pos != (head)
      
      	do stuff
      
      We're missing a barrier here.
      
      	pos = rcu_dereference(pos->next)
      
      		fetch pos->next
      
      		barrier given by rcu_dereference(pos->next)
      
      		store pos
      
      Without the missing barrier, the pos->next value may turn out to be stale.
      In fact, if "do stuff" were also dereferencing pos and relying on
      list_for_each_rcu to provide the barrier then it may also break.
      
      So here is a patch to make sure that we have a barrier for the first
      element in the list.

      Fix memory ordering bug in page reclaim · 3d80636a
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      As noticed by Nick Piggin, we need to make sure that we check the page
      count before we check for PageDirty, since the dirty check is only valid
      if the count implies that we're the only possible ones holding the page.
      
      We always did do this, but the code needs a read-memory-barrier to make
      sure that the orderign is also honored by the CPU.
      
      (The writer side is ordered due to the atomic decrement and test on the
      page count, see the discussion on linux-kernel)
