2005-07-29[PATCH] I2C: Missing space in split stringsJean Delvare
A few split string in i2c (and now hwmon) drivers lack a joining space, causing them to display incorrectly. This trivial patch fixes that up. Please apply, thanks.

2005-07-29[PATCH] I2C: ds1337 - fix 12/24 hour mode bugLadislav Michl
DS1339 manual, page 6, chapter Date and time operation: The DS1339 can be run in either 12-hour or 24-hour mode. Bit 6 of the hours register is defined as the 12-hour or 24-hour mode-select bit. When high, the 12-hour mode is selected. Patch below makes ds1337 driver work as documented in manual.

2005-07-29[PATCH] x86_64 machine_kexec: Cleanup inline assembly.Eric W. Biederman
In an uncensored copy of code from i386 to x86_64 I wound up with inline assembly with the wrong constraints. Use input constraints instead of output constraints. So I know the assembler will do the right thing specify the size of the operand lidtq and lgdtq instead of just lidt and lgdt. Make load_segments use an input constraint, and delete the macro fun. Without having to reload %cs like I do on i386 this code is noticeably simpler. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-07-29[PATCH] i386 machine_kexec: Cleanup inline assemblyEric W. Biederman
For some reason I was telling my inline assembly that the input argument was an output argument. Playing in the trampoline code I have seen a couple of instances where lgdt get the wrong size (because the trampolines run in 16bit mode) so use lgdtl and lidtl to be explicit. Additionally gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4 want's an lvalue for a memory argument and it doesn't think an array of characters is an lvalue so use a packed structure instead. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2005-07-28[PATCH] selinux: Fix address length checks in connect hookStephen Smalley
This patch fixes the address length checks in the selinux_socket_connect hook to be no more restrictive than the underlying ipv4 and ipv6 code; otherwise, this hook can reject valid connect calls. This patch is in response to a bug report where an application was calling connect on an INET6 socket with an address that didn't include the optional scope id and failing due to these checks.

2005-07-28[PATCH] re-disable TSC on NUMAQDave Hansen
Somewhere recently, the TSC got re-enabled for timekeeping on NUMAQ machines. However, the hardware makes these get unsynchronized quite badly. So badly, in fact, that the code to fix up the skew can just hang on boot. This patch re-disables them. It's nicely confined to the numaq.c file. It would be great if this could make it into 2.6.13, I think it counts as a bugfix. Tested on a 16-proc 4-node NUMAQ.

2005-07-28[PATCH] posix timers: fix normalization problemGeorge Anzinger
(We found this (after a customer complained) and it is in the kernel.org kernel. Seems that for CLOCK_MONOTONIC absolute timers and clock_nanosleep calls both the request time and wall_to_monotonic are subtracted prior to the normalize resulting in an overflow in the existing normalize test. This causes the result to be shifted ~4 seconds ahead instead of ~2 seconds back in time.) The normalize code in posix-timers.c fails when the tv_nsec member is ~1.2 seconds negative. This can happen on absolute timers (and clock_nanosleeps) requested on CLOCK_MONOTONIC (both the request time and wall_to_monotonic are subtracted resulting in the possibility of a number close to -2 seconds.) This fix uses the set_normalized_timespec() (which does not have an overflow problem) to fix the problem and as a side effect makes the code cleaner.

2005-07-28[PATCH] uml: fix TT mode by reverting "use fork instead of clone"Jeff Dike
With Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> Revert the following patch, because of miscompilation problems in different environments leading to UML not working *at all* in TT mode; it was merged lately in 2.6 development cycle, a little after being written, and has caused problems to lots of people; I know it's a bit too long, but it shouldn't have been merged in first place, so I still apply for inclusion in the -stable tree. Anyone using this feature currently is either using some older kernel (some reports even used 2.6.12-rc4-mm2) or using this patch, as included in my -bs patchset. For now there's not yet a fix for this patch, so for now the best thing is to drop it (which was widely reported to give a working kernel, and as such was even merged in -stable tree). "Convert the boot-time host ptrace testing from clone to fork. They were essentially doing fork anyway. This cleans up the code a bit, and makes valgrind a bit happier about grinding it."

2005-07-28[PATCH] device-mapper: fix md->lock deadlocks in coreAlasdair G Kergon
This patch is an attempt to fix deadlocks discovered in the core dm. The problems boil down to md->lock having to be held in too many places, so I've split it into two: md->suspend_lock and md->io_lock. suspend_lock is now held throughout dm_suspended() as well as dm_resume() and dm_swap_table() so that these functions cannot run concurrently: there's no requirement for that and it added complexity. DMF_FS_LOCKED becomes redundant: DMF_SUSPENDED provides adequate protection.

This patch eliminates the GCC4 warning on the x86_64 platform: kernel/sched.c:1824: warning: control may reach end of non-void function 'sched_find_first_bit' being inlined. The change follows the lead of others, i.e. it is guaranteed that at least one of b[0], b[1], or b[2] will have a bit set and evaluate to true. That being said, GCC4.0.0 notices that the code flow does not return anything if b[0], b[1] and b[2] are not true. Since we know better, if it's not b[0] or b[1], it has to be b[2].
