Some motherboards (such as the Asus P5V800-MX) ship a PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_82C586_1 IDE controller alongside a VT8251 southbridge. This southbridge is currently unrecognised in the via82cxxx IDE driver, preventing those users from getting DMA access to disks.

2005-12-13[libata] mark certain hardware (or drivers) with a no-atapi flagJeff Garzik1-0/+1
Some hardware does not support the PACKET command at all. Other hardware supports ATAPI, but the driver does something nasty such as calling BUG() when an ATAPI command is issued. For these such cases, we mark them with a new flag, ATA_FLAG_NO_ATAPI. Initial version contributed by Ben Collins.

2005-12-13[PATCH] libata: implement ata_exec_internal()Tejun Heo1-0/+2
This patch implements ata_exec_internal() function which performs libata internal command execution. Previously, this was done by each user by manually initializing a qc, issueing it, waiting for its completion and handling errors. In addition to obvious code factoring, using ata_exec_internal() fixes the following bugs. * qc not freed on issue failure * ap->qactive clearing could race with the next internal command * race between timeout handling and irq * ignoring error condition not represented in tf->status Also, qc & hardware are not accessed anymore once it's completed, making internal commands more conformant with general semantics. ata_exec_internal() also makes it easy to issue internal commands from multiple threads if that becomes necessary. This patch only implements ata_exec_internal(). A following patch will convert all users. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> -- Jeff, all patches have been regenerated against upstream branch as of today. (575ab52a218e4ff0667a6cbd972c3af443ee8713) Also, I took out a debug printk from ata_exec_internal (don't know how that one got left there). Other than that, all patches are identical to the previous posting. Thanks. :-) Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-12-13[PATCH] fbdev: Fix incorrect unaligned access in little-endian machinesAntonino A. Daplas1-0/+12
The drawing function cfbfillrect does not work correctly when access is not unsigned-long aligned. It manifests as extra lines of pixels that are not complete drawn. Reversing the shift operator solves the problem, so I would presume that this bug would manifest only on little endian machines. The function cfbcopyarea may also have this bug. Aligned access should present no problems. Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@pol.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-12-13[PATCH] fbdev: fix switch to KD_TEXT, enhanced versionKnut Petersen1-0/+12
Every framebuffer driver relies on the assumption that the set_par() function of the driver is called before drawing functions and other functions dependent on the hardware state are executed. Whenever you switch from X to a framebuffer console for the very first time, there is a chance that a broken X system has _not_ set the mode to KD_GRAPHICS, thus the vt and framebuffer code executes a screen redraw and several other functions before a set_par() is executed. This is believed to be not a bug of linux but a bug of X/xdm. At least some X releases used by SuSE and Debian show this behaviour. There was a 2nd case, but that has been fixed by Antonino Daplas on 10-dec-2005. This patch allows drivers to set a flag to inform fbcon_switch() that they prefer a set_par() call on every console switch, working around the problems caused by the broken X releases. The flag will be used by the next release of cyblafb and might help other drivers that assume a hardware state different to the one used by X. As the default behaviour does not change, this patch should be acceptable to everybody. Signed-off-by: Knut Petersen <Knut_Petersen@t-online.de> Acked-by: "Antonino A.

This is needed by savagefb at least so it can cooperate with savage_dri and by cyblafb. State save/restoration can be full or partial.

2005-12-12[PATCH] inotify: add two inotify_add_watch flagsJohn McCutchan1-0/+2
The below patch lets userspace have more control over the inodes that inotify will watch. It introduces two new flags. IN_ONLYDIR -- only watch the inode if it is a directory. This is needed to avoid the race that can occur when we want to be sure that we are watching a directory. IN_DONT_FOLLOW -- don't follow a symlink. In combination with IN_ONLYDIR we can make sure that we don't watch the target of symlinks. The issues the flags fix came up when writing the gnome-vfs inotify backend.

2005-12-12[PATCH] Add timestamp field to process eventsMatt Helsley1-0/+2
This adds a timestamp field to the events sent via the process event connector. The timestamp allows listeners to accurately account the duration(s) between a process' events and offers strong means with which to determine the order of events with respect to a given task while also avoiding the addition of per-task data. This alters the size and layout of the event structure and hence would break compatibility if process events connector as it stands in 2.6.15-rc2 were released as a mainline kernel.

2005-12-12[PATCH] add rcu_barrier() synchronization pointDipankar Sarma1-0/+2
This introduces a new interface - rcu_barrier() which waits until all the RCUs queued until this call have been completed. Reiser4 needs this, because we do more than just freeing memory object in our RCU callback: we also remove it from the list hanging off super-block. This means, that before freeing reiser4-specific portion of super-block (during umount) we have to wait until all pending RCU callbacks are executed. The only change of reiser4 made to the original patch, is exporting of rcu_barrier(). Cc: Hans Reiser <reiser@namesys.com> Cc: Vladimir V.

2005-12-07[CPUFREQ] CPU frequency display in /proc/cpuinfoVenkatesh Pallipadi1-0/+10
What is the value shown in "cpu MHz" of /proc/cpuinfo when CPUs are capable of changing frequency? Today the answer is: It depends. On i386: SMP kernel - It is always the boot frequency UP kernel - Scales with the frequency change and shows that was last set. On x86_64: There is one single variable cpu_khz that gets written by all the CPUs. So, the frequency set by last CPU will be seen on /proc/cpuinfo of all the CPUs in the system. What you see also depends on whether you have constant_tsc capable CPU or not. On ia64: It is always boot time frequency of a particular CPU that gets displayed. The patch below changes this to: Show the last known frequency of the particular CPU, when cpufreq is present. If cpu doesnot support changing of frequency through cpufreq, then boot frequency will be shown. The patch affects i386, x86_64 and ia64 architectures.

The uid_t and gid_t fields appear to present a 32/64-bit userspace/kernel problem for some archs. This patch addresses the problem by fixing the size to the largest size for uid_t/gid_t used in the kernel.
