_BIF was returning buffer instead of a string since day 1 of ACPI.
Adding a warning for that is noble, but people don't like
when someone cries wolf in a production system.

SMB writes are sent with a starting offset and length. When the server
supports the newer SMB trans2 posix open (rather than using the SMB
NTCreateX) a file can be opened with SMB_O_APPEND flag, and for that
case Samba server assumes that the offset sent in SMBWriteX is unneeded
since the write should go to the end of the file - which can cause
problems if the write was cached (since the beginning part of a
page could be written twice by the client mm). Jeff suggested that
masking the flag on posix open on the client is easiest for the time
being. Note that recent Samba server also had an unrelated problem with
SMB NTCreateX and append (see samba bugzilla bug number 6898) which
should not affect current Linux clients (unless cifs Unix Extensions
are disabled).
The cifs client did not send the O_APPEND flag on posix open
before 2.6.29 so the fix is unneeded on early kernels.
In the future, for the non-cached case (O_DIRECT, and forcedirectio mounts)
it would be possible and useful to send O_APPEND on posix open (for Windows
case: FILE_APPEND_DATA but not FILE_WRITE_DATA on SMB NTCreateX) but for
cached writes although the vfs sets the offset to end of file it
may fragment a write across pages - so we can't send O_APPEND on
open (could result in sending part of a page twice).

Be like the other Sun serial drivers otherwise the special handling of
OpenFirmware options and hard-coded overrides for LOM/RSC consoles
will not be handled.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
RSC and LOM devices have fixed speed settings.
We already had some code to match and handle "rsc" named devices on
E250 systems, but we also have to handle 'rsc-console', 'rsc-control',
and 'lom-console'.
Also, in order to get this right regardless of what 'output-device'
happens to be, explicitly pass the UART device node pointer to this
routine.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
This tells the logic to ignore the line match when deciding whether the
device is the OpenFirmware specified console device or not.
This is going to be used in the SU driver for rsc-console detection.
There is probably a better way to handle this, but this is the least
intrusive solution for now which we can validate won't break any other
cases.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
These device nodes are named "rsc-console" and "rsc-control" rather
than 'serial', but the device_type property is 'serial' so we'll
tip off of that for detection.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Other Sun serial drivers do not do this, and if we keep it this way
it ends up registering all serial devices as consoles rather than
just the one which we explicitly register via sunserial_console_match()

In commit 0de51088e6, we introduced the
use of acpi-cpufreq on VIA/Centaur CPU's by removing a vendor check for
VENDOR_INTEL. However, as it turns out, at least the Nano CPU's also
need the PDC (processor driver capabilities) handshake in order to
activate the methods required for acpi-cpufreq.
Since arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc() contains another vendor check for
Intel, the PDC is not initialized on VIA CPU's. The resulting behavior
of a current mainline kernel on such systems is: acpi-cpufreq
loads and it indicates CPU frequency changes. However, the CPU stays at
a single frequency
This trivial patch ensures that init_intel_pdc() is called on Intel and
VIA/Centaur CPU's alike.

When the framebuffer driver does not publish detailed timing information

Since pixclock is actually unsigned, the value -1 would be interpreted

Some architectures compute ->vm_page_prot depending on ->vm_flags, so we
need to update the protections after adjusting the flags.
AFAIK this only affects running X under Xen; without this patch you get
lots of coloured blobs on the screen, or maybe a complete lockup. Or
anything really.
But that still depends on lots of out-of-tree stuff, so I don't think
there are any consequences for anyone else. But it is wrong in principle.

unused_nodes modification needs to be protected by unused_lock spinlock.
Here is an example of an usage where there is no such protection without
this patch.
Process 1: 1-drm_mm_pre_get(this function modify unused_nodes list)
2-spin_lock(spinlock protecting mm struct)
3-drm_mm_put_block(this function might modify unused_nodes
list but doesn't protect modification with unused_lock)
4-spin_unlock(spinlock protecting mm struct)
Process2: 1-drm_mm_pre_get(this function modify unused_nodes list)

This was the cause of various boot failures on V480, V880, etc.
systems.
Kernel image memory was being overwritten because the vmemmap[]
array was being sized to small. So if you had physical memory
addresses past a certain point, the early bootup would spam
all over variables in the kernel data section.
The vmemmap mappings map page structs, not page struct pointers.
And that was the key thinko in the macro definition.
This was fixable thanks to the help, reports, and tireless patience
of Hermann Lauer.

But bonding driver set netdev->dev_addr field to its original value,
after enslaving interfaces.
When ever active slave changes, it swap dev_addr of inactive slave with active.
Yet it doesn't notify driver about change in netdev->dev_addr.
As netxen driver need to set mac addr when ever interface comes up,
