545b07d362 [ALSA] make snd-powermac load even when it can't bind the device
This patch makes snd-powermac load when it can't bind the device right
away. That's the expected behaviour for hotplugging, but fixes an
important problem I was seeing with doing a modprobe snd-powermac with
a version that refuses loading on machines with layout-id: snd-powermac
would create a bunch of uevents and then refuse to load, the uevents
causing udev to reload it again, ad eternum.

2566d36ab4 [ALSA] aoa: feature gpio layer: fix IRQ access
The IRQ rework caused some hiccups here, in some cases we call
get_irq without a device node. This patch makes it catch that
case and return NO_IRQ when it happens, along with changing the
place where the irq is checked to check for NO_IRQ instead of -1.

If CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUG is set force_iommu defaults to 1. In the case
where no HW IOMMU is present in the machine and we end up using nommu,
leaving force_iommu set to 1 causes dma_alloc_coherent to do the wrong
thing. Therefore, if we end up using nommu, make sure force_iommu is

ae74c3b69a Fix force_sig_info() semantics after cleanups
Suresh points out that commit b0423a0d9c
broke the semantics of a synchronous signal like SIGSEGV occurring
recursively inside its own handler handler (or, indeed, any other
context when the signal was blocked).

That was unintentional, and this fixes things up by reinstating the old
semantics, but without reverting the cleanups.

When HZ is set to 250 (new default) or 100, the time span during which
repeated events from the device are ignored could be too small due to
ms->jiffies rounding.  This causes the auto repeat to kick in early making
it impossible for the user to generate individual press/release events.

3c332422f7 usb-storage: Add US_FL_IGNORE_DEVICE flag; ignore ZyXEL G220F
This patch adds a new unusual_devs flag for when usb-storage needs to ignore
a device that it would otherwise claim.

We need to ignore the ZyXEL G220F as it is a virtual CDROM drive which
includes the windows driver for this USB-WLAN adapter. After the windows
driver is installed on a windows system, it converts it into a WLAN adapter
(by ejecting the virtual disc).

The virtual CDROM is of no interest to Linux users. The zd1211rw driver will
automatically perform the eject operation, we just need to ensure that
usb-storage does not claim the device.

Can you add the USB IDs for the Belkin USB Serial adapter (P/N F5U257)

I recently purchased a Belkin USB Serial adapter (P/N F5U257) and found
that it didn't work. After a bit of experimentation I found that it
works with the pl2303 driver once the ID has been added. See attached
patch to fix this. Also attached is the output from lsusb -v just in
case you require any information from there.

"SHARP WS003SH" (usullary called "W-ZERO3") is most polular All-in-one handheld
CellPhone-plus-WindowsMobile5.0 in Japan.

"SHARP WS003SH" has two modes, "Modem" and "ActiveSync".
But, "ActiveSync" mode uses NDIS connection.
Therefore, ipaq.c can only support "Modem" mode.

acb15c85de [IA64] Do not assume output registers be reservered.
We found an issue in pal.S.

According to the software runtime SPEC,
The caller's output registers do not need to be preserved for
caller. The callee may reuse input registers for any other
purpose within the procedure.

in ia64_pal_call_phys_stacked,

input registers are copied to output registers before call
into ia64_switch_mode_phys, then used to call into PAL. This
assumes output registers are preserved in ia64_switch_mode_phys,
which may not be true.

In this particular case, ia64_switch_mode_phys alloc a null frame
, and mask off psr.i.
If an interrupt comes at this small window,
or an MCA comes inside the procedure, output registers
maybe changed,
then the pal call may got some staled input registers.

This patch moves the copies from input to output
after ia64_switch_mode_phys to follow the software
runtime convention.

It  also removed some unused labels in
ia64_pal_call_phys_stacked.

The lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() sequence in

because lock_cpu_hotplug() may sleep while the net_dma_event_lock
spinlock is held, and unnecessary (as pointed out by Andrew Morton) as

dc49c1f94e [AF_UNIX]: Kernel memory leak fix for af_unix datagram getpeersec patch
From: Catherine Zhang <cxzhang@watson.ibm.com>

This patch implements a cleaner fix for the memory leak problem of the
original unix datagram getpeersec patch.  Instead of creating a
security context each time a unix datagram is sent, we only create the
security context when the receiver requests it.

This new design requires modification of the current
unix_getsecpeer_dgram LSM hook and addition of two new hooks, namely,
secid_to_secctx and release_secctx.  The former retrieves the security
context and the latter releases it.  A hook is required for releasing
the security context because it is up to the security module to decide
how that's done.  In the case of Selinux, it's a simple kfree
operation.

76f10ad0e6 [NET]: Remove lockdep_set_class() call from skb_queue_head_init().
The skb_queue_head_init() function is used both in drivers for private use
and in the core networking code.  The usage models are vastly set of
functions that is only softirq safe; while the driver usage tends to be
more limited to a few hardirq safe accessor functions.  Rather than
annotating all 133+ driver usages, for now just split this lock into a per
queue class.  This change is obviously safe and probably should make
2.6.18.

dafee49085 [IPV6]: SNMPv2 "ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates" counter error
When I tested linux kernel 2.6.71.7 about statistics
"ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates", and found that it couldn't increase
correctly. The criteria is RFC 2465:

  ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates OBJECT-TYPE
      SYNTAX      Counter32
      MAX-ACCESS  read-only
      STATUS      current
      DESCRIPTION
         "The number of output datagram fragments that have
         been generated as a result of fragmentation at
         this output interface."
      ::= { ipv6IfStatsEntry 15 }

I think there are two issues in Linux kernel. 
1st:
RFC2465 specifies the counter is "The number of output datagram
fragments...". I think increasing this counter after output a fragment
successfully is better. And it should not be increased even though a
fragment is created but failed to output.

2nd:
If we send a big ICMP/ICMPv6 echo request to a host, and receive
ICMP/ICMPv6 echo reply consisted of some fragments. As we know that in
Linux kernel first fragmentation occurs in ICMP layer(maybe saying
transport layer is better), but this is not the "real"
fragmentation,just do some "pre-fragment" -- allocate space for date,
and form a frag_list, etc. The "real" fragmentation happens in IP layer
-- set offset and MF flag and so on. So I think in "fast path" for
ip_fragment/ip6_fragment, if we send a fragment which "pre-fragment" by
upper layer we should also increase "ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates".

32c524d1c4 [IPV6]: SNMPv2 "ipv6IfStatsInHdrErrors" counter error
When I tested Linux kernel 2.6.17.7 about statistics
"ipv6IfStatsInHdrErrors", found that this counter couldn't increase
correctly. The criteria is RFC2465:
  ipv6IfStatsInHdrErrors OBJECT-TYPE
      SYNTAX     Counter3
      MAX-ACCESS read-only
      STATUS     current
      DESCRIPTION
         "The number of input datagrams discarded due to
         errors in their IPv6 headers, including version
         number mismatch, other format errors, hop count
         exceeded, errors discovered in processing their
         IPv6 options, etc."
      ::= { ipv6IfStatsEntry 2 }

When I send TTL=0 and TTL=1 a packet to a router which need to be
forwarded, router just sends an ICMPv6 message to tell the sender that
TIME_EXCEED and HOPLIMITS, but no increments for this counter(in the
function ip6_forward).

b60dfc6c20 [NET]: Kill the WARN_ON() calls for checksum fixups.
We have a more complete solution in the works, involving
the seperation of CHECKSUM_HW on input vs. output, and
having netfilter properly do incremental checksums.

But that is a very involved patch and is thus 2.6.19
material.

What we have now is infinitely better than the past,
wherein all TSO packets were dropped due to corrupt
checksums as soon at the NAT module was loaded.  At
least now, the checksums do get fixed up, it just
isn't the cleanest nor most optimal solution.
