Everybody wants to pass it a function pointer, and in fact, that is what you _must_ pass it for it to make sense (since it knows that ia64 and ppc64 use descriptors for function pointers and fetches the actual address from there). So don't make the argument be a 'unsigned long' and force everybody to add a cast. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Current module loader lookups ".data.percpu" ELF section to perform per_cpu relocation. But DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() uses another section (".data.percpu.shared_aligned"), currently only handled in vmlinux.lds, not by module loader. To correct this problem, instead of adding logic into module loader, or using at build time a module.lds file for all arches to group ".data.percpu.shared_aligned" into ".data.percpu", just use ".data.percpu" for modules. Alignment requirements are correctly handled by ld and module loader.

match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer. There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would result in bugs. To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default, but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is obviously not the point of it at all). Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier, so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing the wrong thing. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

We should not go through the task pointer to get at the thread info, since it's usually cheaper to just access the thread info directly. So don't make the code look up 'current', when we can just use the thread info accessor functions directly. This generally avoids one level of indirection and tends to work better together with code that also looks at other thread flags (eg preempt_count).

It acts exactly like a regular 'cond_resched()', but will not get optimized away when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set. Normal kernel code is already preemptable in the presense of CONFIG_PREEMPT, so cond_resched() is optimized away (see commit 02b67cc3 "sched: do not do cond_resched() when CONFIG_PREEMPT"). But when wanting to conditionally reschedule while holding a lock, you need to use "cond_sched_lock(lock)", and the new function is the BKL equivalent of that. Also make fs/locks.c use it.

As the old driver_name/type matching scheme is going away soon, change the dummy device mechanism to use the new matching scheme. This has the downside that dummy i2c clients can no longer choose their name, they'll all appear as "dummy" in sysfs and in log messages. I don't think it is a problem in practice though, as there is little reason to use these i2c clients to log messages. Signed-off-by: NJean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

The generic semaphore rewrite had a huge performance regression on AIM7 (and potentially other BKL-heavy benchmarks) because the generic semaphores had been rewritten to be simple to understand and fair. The latter, in particular, turns a semaphore-based BKL implementation into a mess of scheduling. The attempt to fix the performance regression failed miserably (see the previous commit 00b41ec2 'Revert "semaphore: fix"'), and so for now the simple and sane approach is to instead just go back to the old spinlock-based BKL implementation that never had any issues like this. This patch also has the advantage of being reported to fix the regression completely according to Yanmin Zhang, unlike the semaphore hack which still left a couple percentage point regression. As a spinlock, the BKL obviously has the potential to be a latency issue, but it's not really any different from any other spinlock in that respect. We do want to get rid of the BKL asap, but that has been the plan for several years. These days, the biggest users are in the tty layer (open/release in particular) and Alan holds out some hope: "tty release is probably a few months away from getting cured - I'm afraid it will almost certainly be the very last user of the BKL in tty to get fixed as it depends on everything else being sanely locked." so while we're not there yet, we do have a plan of action.

Some Inovaphone PBXs exhibit very stange behaviour: when dialing for example "123", the device sends INVITE requests for "1", "12" and "123" back to back. The first requests will elicit error responses from the receiver, causing the SIP helper to flush the RTP expectations even though we might still see a positive response. Note the sequence number of the last INVITE request that contained a media description and only flush the expectations when receiving a negative response for that sequence number.

Some controllers (jmb and inic162x) use 0x77 and 0x7f to indicate that the device isn't ready yet. It looks like they use 0xff if device presence is detected but connection isn't established. 0x77 or 0x7f after connection is established and use the value from signature FIS after receiving it. This patch implements ata_check_ready(), which takes TF status value and determines whether the port is ready or not considering the above and other conditions, and use it in @check_ready() functions. This is safe as both 0x77 and 0x7f aren't valid ready status value even though they have BSY bit cleared. This fixes hot plug detection failures which can be triggered with certain drives if they aren't already spun up when the data connector is hot plugged.
