b3743fa444 [PATCH] yenta: share code with PCI core
Share code between setup-bus.c and yenta_socket.c: use the write-out code of
resources to the bridge also in yenta_socket.c, as it provides useful debug
output.  In addition, it fixes the bug that the CPU-centric resource view
might need to be transferred to the PCI-centric view: setup-bus.c does that,
while yenta-socket.c did not.

fac92becda [PATCH] bfs: fix endianness, signedness; add trivial bugfix
* Makes BFS code endianness-clean.

* Fixes some signedness warnings.

* Fixes a problem in fs/bfs/inode.c:164 where inodes not synced to disk
  don't get fully marked as clean.  Here's how to reproduce it:

# mount -o loop -t bfs /bfs.img /mnt
# df -i /mnt
Filesystem            Inodes   IUsed   IFree IUse% Mounted on
/bfs.img                  48       1      47    3% /mnt
# df -k /mnt

/bfs.img                   512         5       508   1% /mnt
# cp 60k-archive.zip /mnt/mt.zip

383f2835eb [PATCH] Prefetch kernel stacks to speed up context switch
For architecture like ia64, the switch stack structure is fairly large
(currently 528 bytes).  For context switch intensive application, we found
that significant amount of cache misses occurs in switch_to() function.
The following patch adds a hook in the schedule() function to prefetch
switch stack structure as soon as 'next' task is determined.  This allows
maximum overlap in prefetch cache lines for that structure.

5e41ff9e06 [PATCH] security: enable atomic inode security labeling
The following patch set enables atomic security labeling of newly created
inodes by altering the fs code to invoke a new LSM hook to obtain the security
attribute to apply to a newly created inode and to set up the incore inode
security state during the inode creation transaction.  This parallels the
existing processing for setting ACLs on newly created inodes.  Otherwise, it
is possible for new inodes to be accessed by another thread via the dcache
prior to complete security setup (presently handled by the
post_create/mkdir/...  LSM hooks in the VFS) and a newly created inode may be
left unlabeled on the disk in the event of a crash.  SELinux presently works
around the issue by ensuring that the incore inode security label is
initialized to a special SID that is inaccessible to unprivileged processes
(in accordance with policy), thereby preventing inappropriate access but
potentially causing false denials on legitimate accesses.  A simple test
program demonstrates such false denials on SELinux, and the patch solves the
problem.  Similar such false denials have been encountered in real
applications.

This patch defines a new inode_init_security LSM hook to obtain the security
attribute to apply to a newly created inode and to set up the incore inode
security state for it, and adds a corresponding hook function implementation
to SELinux.

b375a0495f [PATCH] USB: URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag removed from the kernel
29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:

This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel.  Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system.  For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."

An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time.  As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches.  Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."

Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory.  "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to.  That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."

Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls.  His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

fbf82fd2e1 [PATCH] USB: real nodes instead of usbfs
This patch introduces a /sys/class/usb_device/ class
where every connected usb-device will show up:

  tree /sys/class/usb_device/
  /sys/class/usb_device/
  |-- usb1.1
  |   |-- dev
  |   `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb1
  |-- usb2.1
  |   |-- dev
  |   `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2
  ...

The presence of the "dev" file lets udev create real device nodes.
  kay@pim:~/src/linux-2.6> tree /dev/bus/usb/
  /dev/bus/usb/
  |-- 1
  |   `-- 1
  |-- 2
  |   `-- 1
  ...

udev rule:
  SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usb_device %k", NAME="%c"
  (echo $1 | /bin/sed 's/usb\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\)/bus\/usb\/\1\/\2/')

This makes libusb pick up the real nodes instead of the mounted usbfs:
  export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb

Background:
  All this makes it possible to manage usb devices with udev instead of
  the devfs solution. We are currently working on a pam_console/resmgr
  replacement driven by udev and a pam-helper. It applies ACL's to device
  nodes, which is required for modern desktop functionalty like
  "Fast User Switching" or multiple local login support.

New patch with its own major. I've succesfully disabled usbfs and use real
nodes only on my box. With: "export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb" libusb picks
up the udev managed nodes instead of reading usbfs files.

This makes udev to provide symlinks for libusb to pick up:
  SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usbdevice %k", SYMLINK="%c"

/sbin/usbdevice:
  #!/bin/sh
  echo $1 | /bin/sed 's/usbdev\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\)/bus\/usb\/\1\/\2/'

cecf4864cf [PATCH] PCI: Add pci_walk_bus function to PCI core (nonrecursive)
The PCI error recovery infrastructure needs to be able to contact all
the drivers affected by a PCI error event, which may mean traversing
all the devices under a given PCI-PCI bridge.  This patch adds a
function to the PCI core that traverses all the PCI devices on a PCI
bus and under any PCI-PCI bridges on that bus (and so on), calling a
given function for each device.  This provides a way for the error
recovery code to iterate through all devices that are affected by an
error event.

This version is not implemented as a recursive function.  Instead,
when we reach a PCI-PCI bridge, we set the pointers to start doing the
devices on the bus under the bridge, and when we reach the end of a
bus's devices, we use the bus->self pointer to go back up to the next
higher bus and continue doing its devices.

064b53dbcc [PATCH] PCI: restore BAR values after D3hot->D0 for devices that need it
Some PCI devices (e.g. 3c905B, 3c556B) lose all configuration
(including BARs) when transitioning from D3hot->D0.  This leaves such
a device in an inaccessible state.  The patch below causes the BARs
to be restored when enabling such a device, so that its driver will
be able to access it.

The patch also adds pci_restore_bars as a new global symbol, and adds a
correpsonding EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for that.

Some firmware (e.g. Thinkpad T21) leaves devices in D3hot after a
(re)boot.  Most drivers call pci_enable_device very early, so devices
left in D3hot that lose configuration during the D3hot->D0 transition
will be inaccessible to their drivers.

Drivers could be modified to account for this, but it would
be difficult to know which drivers need modification.  This is
especially true since often many devices are covered by the same
driver.  It likely would be necessary to replicate code across dozens
of drivers.

The patch below should trigger only when transitioning from D3hot->D0
(or at boot), and only for devices that have the "no soft reset" bit
cleared in the PM control register.  I believe it is safe to include
this patch as part of the PCI infrastructure.

The cleanest implementation of pci_restore_bars was to call
pci_update_resource.  Unfortunately, that does not currently exist
for the sparc64 architecture.  The patch below includes a null
implemenation of pci_update_resource for sparc64.

Some have expressed interest in making general use of the the
pci_restore_bars function, so that has been exported to GPL licensed
modules.

34bb61f9dd [PATCH] fix klist semantics for lists which have elements removed on traversal
The problem is that klists claim to provide semantics for safe traversal of
lists which are being modified.  The failure case is when traversal of a
list causes element removal (a fairly common case).  The issue is that
although the list node is refcounted, if it is embedded in an object (which
is universally the case), then the object will be freed regardless of the
klist refcount leading to slab corruption because the klist iterator refers
to the prior element to get the next.

The solution is to make the klist take and release references to the
embedding object meaning that the embedding object won't be released until
the list relinquishes the reference to it.

(akpm: fast-track this because it's needed for the 2.6.13 scsi merge)

d0aaff9796 [PATCH] Kprobes: prevent possible race conditions generic
There are possible race conditions if probes are placed on routines within the
kprobes files and routines used by the kprobes.  For example if you put probe
on get_kprobe() routines, the system can hang while inserting probes on any
routine such as do_fork().  Because while inserting probes on do_fork(),
register_kprobes() routine grabs the kprobes spin lock and executes
get_kprobe() routine and to handle probe of get_kprobe(), kprobes_handler()
gets executed and tries to grab kprobes spin lock, and spins forever.  This
patch avoids such possible race conditions by preventing probes on routines
within the kprobes file and routines used by kprobes.

I have modified the patches as per Andi Kleen's suggestion to move kprobes
routines and other routines used by kprobes to a seperate section
.kprobes.text.

Also moved page fault and exception handlers, general protection fault to
.kprobes.text section.

These patches have been tested on i386, x86_64 and ppc64 architectures, also
compiled on ia64 and sparc64 architectures.

a766223625 [PATCH] Make ll_rw_block() wait for buffer lock
Introduce new ll_rw_block() operation SWRITE meaning that block layer should
wait for the buffer lock and write-out afterwards.  Hence data in buffers at
the time of call are guaranteed to be submitted to the disk.
