ipmi: set schedule_timeout_wait() value back to one

2010-08-02T17:29:45Z

commit 8d1f66dc9b4f80a1441bc1c33efa98aca99e8813 upstream. Fix a regression introduced by ae74e823cb7d ("ipmi: add parameter to limit CPU usage in kipmid"). Some systems were seeing CPU usage go up dramatically with the recent changes to try to reduce timer usage in the IPMI driver. This was traced down to schedule_timeout_interruptible(1) being changed to schedule_timeout_interruptbile(0). Revert that part of the change.

amd64-agp: Probe unknown AGP devices the right way

2010-08-02T17:29:42Z

commit 6fd024893911dcb51b4a0aa71971db5ba38f7071 upstream. The current initialisation code probes 'unsupported' AGP devices simply by calling its own probe function. It does not lock these devices or even check whether another driver is already bound to them. We must use the device core to manage this. So if the specific device id table didn't match anything and agp_try_unsupported=1, switch the device id table and call driver_attach() again.

tpm_tis: fix subsequent suspend failures

2010-08-02T17:29:40Z

commit 59f6fbe4291fcc078ba26ce4edf8373a7620a13a upstream. Fix subsequent suspends by issuing tpm_continue_selftest during resume. Otherwise, the tpm chip seems to be not fully initialized and will reject the save state command during suspend, thus preventing the whole system to suspend.

TPM: ReadPubEK output struct fix

2010-08-02T17:29:30Z

commit 02a077c52ef7631275a79862ffd9f3dbe9d38bc2 upstream. This patch adds a missing element of the ReadPubEK command output, that prevents future overflow of this buffer when copying the TPM output result into it. Prevents a kernel panic in case the user tries to read the pubek from sysfs. Signed-off-by: Rajiv Andrade Signed-off-by: James Morris Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ipmi: handle run_to_completion properly in deliver_recv_msg()

2010-07-05T18:22:39Z

commit a747c5abc329611220f16df0bb4cf0ca4a7fdf0c upstream. If run_to_completion flag is set, it means that we are running in a single-threaded mode, and thus no locks are held. This fixes a deadlock when IPMI notifier is being called during panic.

tty: Fix unbalanced BKL handling in error path

2010-05-13T19:10:56Z

Arnd noted: After the "retry_open:" label, we first get the tty_mutex and then the BKL. However a the end of tty_open, we jump back to retry_open with the BKL still held. If we run into this case, the tty_open function will be left with the BKL still held. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Cc: stable Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: Fix regressions in the char driver conversion

2010-04-30T16:20:33Z

This forgot to update a field in the old char drivers. The fact nobody has basically noticed (except one mxser user) rather suggests most of these drivers could go into the bitbucket. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Cc: Jiri Slaby Cc: Dan Carpenter Cc: Andreas Pretzsch Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
