If the BIOS does not export _OSC to allow OS take over the PCIe AER, the
pcie aer driver will not initialize the aer service. However, the
aer_inject driver does not check this scenario, which results in a kernel
oops when injecting an aer error into OS. For example:

Commit 239007b844 ("genirq: Convert irq_desc.lock to raw_spinlock")

Introduced by commit 5b889bf23 ("PCI: Fix build if quirks are not
enabled"), which made the pci_dev_reset_methods[] array static and
'const', but didn't then change the code to match, and use a const
pointer when moving it to quirks.c.
Trivially fixed by just adding the required 'const' to the iterator
variable.

Comments from Stefan:
Distributors who still ship the old stack (ieee1394, ohci1394,
raw1394, sbp2, eth1394 and more) should now switch to the new one
(firewire-core, firewire-ohci, firewire-sbp2, firewire-net). In the
first iteration, those distributors might want to ship the old stack
also (but blacklisted) as a fallback for their users if unforeseen
problems with the newer replacement drivers are encountered.
The older FireWire stack contains several known problems which are
not going to be fixed; instead, those issues are addressed by the new
stack. An incomplete list of these issues is kept in bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10046
We have a guide on migration from the older to the newer stack:

device-specific reset methods") the kernel build is broken if
CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS is unset.
Fix this by moving pci_dev_specific_reset() to drivers/pci/quirks.c and

with CONFIG_GART_IOMMU enabled drivers/char/agp/amd64-agp.c has:
#ifndef CONFIG_GART_IOMMU
module_init(agp_amd64_init);
module_exit(agp_amd64_cleanup);
#endif
agp_amd64_init() was called via gart_iommu_init with
CONFIG_GART_IOMMU=y agp_amd64_init() was called via module_init
with CONFIG_GART_IOMMU=n
The commit 75f1cdf1dda92cae037ec848ae63690d91913eac changes the
x86 dma initialization routine: gart_iommu_init() is called only
when GART IOMMU is detected. So when GART IOMMU isn't detected,
agp_amd64_init isn't called.
Marin Mitov reported this issue:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126192729110083&w=2
With this patch, agp_amd64_init() is always called via
module_init (the above ifndef is removed). If agp_amd64_init()
is called via gart_iommu_init() earlier, agp_amd64_init()
finishes without doing anything (when it is called via
module_init).

It would appear that in BIOS's with nVidia hooks, the GUID
05901221-D566-11D1-B2F0-00A0C9062910 is duplicated. For now, the simplest
solution is to just ignore any duplicate GUIDs. These particular hooks are not
currently supported/ used in the kernel, so whoever does that can figure out
what the 'right' solution should be (if there's a better one).

Today's -tip failed to build because commit
9e368fa011d4e0aa050db348d69514900520e40b ("ipmi: add PNP discovery (ACPI
namespace via PNPACPI)") from today's upstream kernel causes the following
build failure on x86, for CONFIG_ACPI=n && CONFIG_IPMI_SI=y:
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3208: error: 'ipmi_pnp_driver' undeclared (first use in this function)

drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:3334: error: 'ipmi_pnp_driver' undeclared (first use in this function)
The reason is that the ipmi_pnp_driver depends on ACPI facilities and is only
made available under ACPI - while the registration and unregistration is made
dependent on CONFIG_PNP:
#ifdef CONFIG_PNP
pnp_register_driver(&ipmi_pnp_driver);
#endif
The solution is to only register this driver under ACPI. (Also, the CONFIG_PNP
dependency is not needed because pnp_register_driver() is stubbed out in the
!CONFIG_PNP case.)

If two arrays share a device, then they will not both resync at the
same time. One will wait for the other to complete.
While waiting, the MD_RECOVERY_INTR flag is not checked so a device
failure, which would make the resync pointless, does not cause the
resync to abort, so the failed device cannot be removed (as it cannot
be remove while a resync is happening).
So add a test for MD_RECOVERY_INTR.

Since commit dfc7064500061677720fa26352963c772d3ebe6b,
->hot_remove_disks has not removed non-failed devices from
an array until recovery is no longer possible.
So the code in do_md_run to get around the fact that
md_check_recovery (which calls ->hot_remove_disks) would
remove partially-in-sync devices is no longer needed.
So remove it.

By default md_do_sync() will perform recovery if no other actions are

The start_ro modules parameter can be used to force arrays to be
started in 'auto-readonly' in which they are read-only until the first
write. This ensures that no resync/recovery happens until something
else writes to the device. This is important for resume-from-disk
off an md array.
However if an array is started 'readonly' (by writing 'readonly' to
the 'array_state' sysfs attribute) we want it to be really 'readonly',
not 'auto-readonly'.
So strengthen the condition to only set auto-readonly if the
array is not already read-only.

evms configures md arrays by:
open device
send ioctl
close device
for each different ioctl needed.
Since 2.6.29, the device can disappear after the 'close'
unless a significant configuration has happened to the device.
The change made by "SET_ARRAY_INFO" can too minor to stop the device
from disappearing, but important enough that losing the change is bad.
So: make sure SET_ARRAY_INFO sets mddev->ctime, and keep the device
active as long as ctime is non-zero (it gets zeroed with lots of other
things when the array is stopped).
This is suitable for -stable kernels since 2.6.29.

Update the Kconfig help texts of both stacks to encourage a general move
from the older to the newer drivers. However, do not label ieee1394 as
"Obsolete" yet, as the newer drivers have not been deployed as default
stack in the majority of Linux distributions yet, and those who start
doing so now may still want to install the old drivers as fallback for
unforeseen issues.
Since Linux 2.6.32, FireWire audio devices can be driven by the newer
firewire driver stack too, hence remove an outdated comment about audio
devices. Also remove comments about library versions since the 2nd
generation of libraw1394 and libdc1394 is now in common use; details on
library versions can be read at the wiki link from the help texts.

This is a minimal change meant for the short term: Never set the
ohci->use_dualbuffer flag to true.
There are two reasons to do so:
- Packet-per-buffer mode and dual-buffer mode do not behave the same
under certain circumstances, notably if several packets are covered
by a single fw_cdev_iso_packet descriptor.
http://marc.info/?l=linux1394-devel&m=124965653718313
Therefore the driver stack should not silently choose one or the
other mode but should leave the choice to the high-level driver
(regardless if kernel driver or userspace driver). Or simply always
only offer packet-per-buffer mode, since a considerable number of
controllers, even current ones, does not offer dual-buffer support.
- Even under circumstances where packet-per-buffer mode and
dual-buffer mode behave exactly the same --- notably when used
through libraw1394, libdc1394, as well as the current two kernel
drivers which use isochronous reception (firewire-net and firedtv)
--- we are still faced with the problem that several OHCI 1.1
controllers have bugs in dual-buffer mode. Although it looks like
we have identified most of those buggy controllers by now, we
cannot be quite sure about that.
So, use packet-per-buffer by default from now on. This change should
be followed up by a more complete solution: Either extend the
in-kernel API and the userspace ABI by a choice between the two IR modes
or remove all dual-buffer related code from firewire-ohci.

If copy_from_user in an FW_CDEV_IOC_SEND_RESPONSE ioctl failed, the
fw_request pointed to by the inbound_transaction_resource is no
longer referenced and needs to be freed.

Control of more than one AV/C device at once --- e.g. camcorders, tape
decks, audio devices, TV tuners --- failed or worked only unreliably,
depending on driver implementation. This affected kernelspace and
userspace drivers alike and was caused by firewire-core's inability to
accept multiple registrations of FCP listeners.
The fix allows multiple address handlers to be registered for the FCP
command and response registers. When a request for these registers is
received, all handlers are invoked, and the Firewire response is
generated by the core and not by any handler.
The cdev API does not change, i.e., userspace is still expected to send
a response for FCP requests; this response is silently ignored.
