2006-02-01[PATCH] hrtimers: add back lost credit linesThomas Gleixner
At some point we added credits to people who actively helped to bring k/hr-timers along. This was lost in the big code revamp. Add it back.

2006-02-01[PATCH] hrtimers: cleanups and simplificationsGeorge Anzinger
Clean up the interface to hrtimers by changing the init code to pass the mode as well as the clock. This allow the init code to select the correct base and eliminates extra timer re-init code in posix-timers. We also simplify the restart interface nanosleep use.

2006-02-01[PATCH] hrtimers: fix posix-timer requeue raceakpm@osdl.org
From: Steven Rostedtrostedt@goodmis.org <rostedt@goodmis.org> CPU0 expires a posix-timer and runs the callback function. The signal is queued. After releasing the posix-timer lock and before returning to hrtimer_run_queue CPU0 gets interrupted. CPU1 delivers the queued signal and rearms the timer. CPU0 comes back to hrtimer_run_queue and sets the timer state to expired. The next modification of the timer can result in an oops, because the state information is wrong. Keep track of state = RUNNING and check if the state has been in the return path of hrtimer_run_queue. In case the state has been changed, ignore a restart request and do not touch the state variable.

2006-02-01[PATCH] fuse: fix async read for legacy filesystemsMiklos Szeredi
While asynchronous reads mean a performance improvement in most cases, if the filesystem assumed that reads are synchronous, then async reads may degrade performance (filesystem may receive reads out of order, which can confuse it's own readahead logic). With sshfs a 1.5 to 4 times slowdown can be measured. There's also a need for userspace filesystems to know whether asynchronous reads are supported by the kernel or not. To achive these, negotiate in the INIT request whether async reads will be used and the maximum readahead value. Update interface version to 7.6 If userspace uses a version earlier than 7.6, then disable async reads, and set maximum readahead value to the maximum read size, as done in previous versions.

2006-01-31[IPV4]: Always set fl.proto in ip_route_newportsPatrick McHardy
ip_route_newports uses the struct flowi from the struct rtable returned by ip_route_connect for the new route lookup and just replaces the port numbers if they have changed. If an IPsec policy exists which doesn't match port 0 the struct flowi won't have the proto field set and no xfrm lookup is done for the changed ports.

2006-01-26[SCSI] Prevent scsi_execute_async from guessing cdb lengthbrking@us.ibm.com
When the scsi_execute_async interface was added it ended up reducing the flexibility of userspace to send arbitrary scsi commands through sg using SG_IO. The SG_IO interface allows userspace to specify the CDB length. This is now ignored in scsi_execute_async and it is guessed using the COMMAND_SIZE macro, which is not always correct, particularly for vendor specific commands. This patch adds a cmd_len parameter to the scsi_execute_async interface to allow the caller to specify the length of the CDB.

2006-01-21[SERIAL] Make uart_port flags a bitwise typeRussell King
Same reasoning as commit 747c8a55946ed037bf7d62454c3c599c02af2262 but this time we're making uart_port flags a bitwise type - not all of these flags correspond with the old ASYNC_ flags, so there is the possibility for bugs if the wrong ASYNC_* constants are used. Always use UPF_* constants for uart_port->flags. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-01-21[SERIAL] Fix UPF_ flag usage with uart_info->flagsRussell King
