2005-11-12[PCMCIA] inform user of insertion and ejection eventsDominik Brodowski
Print out minimal information in dmesg whnever a CardBus or PCMCIA card is inserted into or ejected from a slot. This will make debugging certain types of bugs much easier, and is similar to output produced by other hotpluggable buses. Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

2005-11-12[NETFILTER] {ip,nf}_conntrack TCP: Accept SYN+PUSH like SYNVlad Drukker
Some devices (e.g. Qlogic iSCSI HBA hardware like QLA4010 up to firmware 3.0.0.4) initiates TCP with SYN and PUSH flags set. The Linux TCP/IP stack deals fine with that, but the connection tracking code doesn't. This patch alters TCP connection tracking to accept SYN+PUSH as a valid flag combination.

2005-11-12[SBUSFB]: implement ->compat_ioctlChristoph Hellwig
This patch adds a new function, sbusfb_compat_ioctl() to drivers/video/sbuslib.c and uses it as compat_ioctl in all sbus fb drivers This remove the last per-arch compat ioctl bits in arch/sparc64/kernel/ioctl32.c so it would be nice if people could test if this actually copiles and works and if yes apply it :) Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

We had similar problems with other ioctls where userspace did things like that. What we did there was to put the compat handler to generic code. The patch below does that, adding a big comment about what's going on and removing the COMPAT_IOCTL entires for these on powerpc that not only weren't ever useful but are duplicated now aswell.

2005-11-12[BLOCK] elevator: elv_latter/former_request updateTejun Heo
With generic dispatch queue update, implicit former/latter request handling using rq->queuelist.prev/next doesn't work as expected anymore. Also, the only iosched dependent on this feature was noop-iosched and it has been reimplemented to have its own latter/former methods. This patch removes implicit former/latter handling.

2005-11-12[BLOCK] noop-iosched: reimplementation of request dispatchingTejun Heo
The original implementation directly used dispatch queue. As new generic dispatch queue imposes stricter rules over ioscheds and dispatch queue usage, this direct use becomes somewhat problematic. This patch reimplements noop-iosched such that it complies to generic iosched model better. Request merging with q->last_merge and rq->queuelist.prev/next work again now.

2005-11-12[BLOCK] cfq-iosched: fix slice_left calculationTejun Heo

2005-11-12[BLOCK] fix string handling in elv_iosched_storeTejun Heo

2005-11-12[BLOCK] Implement elv_drain_elevator for improved switch error detectionTejun Heo
This patch adds request_queue->nr_sorted which keeps the number of requests in the iosched and implement elv_drain_elevator which performs forced dispatching. elv_drain_elevator checks whether iosched actually dispatches all requests it has and prints error message if it doesn't. As buggy forced dispatching can result in wrong barrier operations, I think this extra check is worthwhile. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2005-11-11[SCTP]: Fix ia64 NaT consumption fault with sctp_sideffect commands.Vladislav Yasevich
On ia64, it is possible to get NaT Consumption Fault and a kernel panic when initializing sctp sideeffect commands arguments. The union sctp_arg_t contains different sized elements and when loading a smaller sized element (32 or 16 bits), it is possible for a speculative load to fail and result in a NaT bit set which causes a kernel crash. The easy way to get around it is to load the largerst member of the union.

2005-11-11[SCTP]: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in sctp_v4_get_saddrVladislav Yasevich
It is possible to get to sctp_v4_get_saddr() without a valid association. This happens when processing OOTB packets and the cached route entry is no longer valid. However, when responding to OOTB packets we already properly set the source address based on the information in the OOTB packet. So, if we we get to sctp_v4_get_saddr() without an association we can simply return.

2005-11-11ppc64: default build as the merged 'powerpc' architectureLinus Torvalds
After the last merge of the new unified 'powerpc' architecture, ppc64 no longer compiles cleanly as a standalone architecture. Some bits and pieces still exist as files under the old ppc64 hierarchy, but the old "ARCH=ppc64" is dead. So if "uname" says ppc64, that now implies that the default architecture should be "powerpc".

2005-11-11[SPARC64]: Restore 2.4.x /proc/cpuinfo behavior for "ncpus probed" field.David S. Miller
Noticed by Tom 'spot' Callaway. Even on uniprocessor we always reported the number of physical cpus in the system via /proc/cpuinfo. But when this got changed to use num_possible_cpus() it always reads as "1" on uniprocessor. This change was unintentional. So scan the firmware device tree and count the number of cpu nodes, and report that, as we always did. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-11-11[IA64-SGI] set altix preferred consoleMark Maule
Fix default VGA console on SN platforms. Since SN firmware does not pass enough ACPI information to identify VGA cards and the associated legacy IO/MEM addresses, we rely on the EFI PCDP table. Since the linux pcdp driver is optional (and overridden if console= directives are used) SN duplicates a portion of the pcdp scan code to identify if there is a usable console VGA adapter. Additionally, dup necessary pcdp related structs to avoid dragging drivers/pcdp.h into a more public location. Signed-off-by: Mark Maule <maule@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
