Ivan Kokshaysky 997a51ae37 [PATCH] Alpha: ISA IRQs fixup for dp264
Basically, this extends original dp264 fixup to all dp264 variations.
Here is one minor change: mask out bits 4-7 of a value assigned by SRM,
because
- newer consoles report ISA IRQs with offset 0xe0;
- even if console IRQ value is bogus, we'll have a value < 16
  so it should be harmless as it won't clash with native IRQs.

Particularly this fixes USB interrupt problem on xp1000 and es40.

Deepak Saxena e0a200894e [ARM] 2917/1: Make IXP4xx mach_desc's depend on config options
Patch from Deepak Saxena

Building a kernel for IXDP425 currently includes the machine descriptors
for IXDP465 and PRPMC1100 even if those machines are not configured.
This means we can build a kernel that boots on those machines even
though the machine_is_xxx() macro will always return 0 and other bits
such as PCI won't be compiled in. This can lead to many wasted hours
wondering what you have done to your kernel to make it randomly crash
thus requireing large quantities of beer to be consumed. While I am
all for consumption of large quantities of beer, there are better
reasons to do so then stupid kernel bugs.

Jeff Dike b4fd310e16 [PATCH] uml: preserve errno in error paths
The poster child for this patch is the third tuntap_user hunk.  When an ioctl
fails, it properly closes the opened file descriptor and returns.  However,
the close resets errno to 0, and the 'return errno' that follows returns 0
rather than the value that ioctl set.  This caused the caller to believe that
the device open succeeded and had opened file descriptor 0, which caused no
end of interesting behavior.

The rest of this patch is a pass through the UML sources looking for places
where errno could be reset before being passed back out.  A common culprit is
printk, which could call write, being called before errno is returned.

In some cases, where the code ends up being much smaller, I just deleted the
printk.

There was another case where a caller of run_helper looked at errno after a
failure, rather than the return value of run_helper, which was the errno value
that it wanted.

Jeff Dike 3eddddcf23 [PATCH] uml: breakpoint an arbitrary thread
This patch implements a stack trace for a thread, not unlike sysrq-t does.
The advantage to this is that a break point can be placed on showreqs, so that
upon showing the stack, you jump immediately into the debugger.  While sysrq-t
does the same thing, sysrq-t shows *all* threads stacks.  It also doesn't work
right now.  In the future, I thought it might be acceptable to make this show
all pids stacks, but perhaps leaving well enough alone and just using sysrq-t
would be okay.  For now, upon receiving the stack command, UML switches
context to that thread, dumps its registers, and then switches context back to
the original thread.  Since UML compacts all threads into one of 4 host
threads, this sort of mechanism could be expanded in the future to include
other debugging helpers that sysrq does not cover.

Note by jdike - The main benefit to this is that it brings an arbitrary thread
back into context, where it can be examined by gdb.  The fact that it dumps it
stack is secondary.  This provides the capability to examine a sleeping
thread, which has existed in tt mode, but not in skas mode until now.

Also, the other threads, that sysrq doesn't cover, can be gdb-ed directly
anyway.

Linus Torvalds 1619cca292 Partially revert "Fix time going twice as fast problem on ATI Xpress chipsets"
Commit 66759a01ad introduced the fix for
time ticking too fast on some boards by disabling one of the doubly
connected timer pins on ATI boards.

However, it ends up being _much_ too broad a brush, and that just makes
some other ATI boards not work at all since they now have no timer
source.

So disable the automatic ATI southbridge detection, and just rely on
people who see this problem disabling it by hand with the option
"disable_timer_pin_1" on the kernel command line.

Maybe somebody can figure out the proper tests at a later date.

Hugh Dickins 2fd4ef85e0 [PATCH] error path in setup_arg_pages() misses vm_unacct_memory()
Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of
security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a
failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants).

These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only
be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some
cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't.

So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into
Committed_AS each time they're run.  But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them,
it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb
be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in
do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved.

The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do
the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set.

And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before
calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking.
Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory:
give it a less misleading name later on.

Chuck Ebbert 33333373c4 [PATCH] i386: Ignore masked FPU exceptions
Masked FPU exceptions should obviously not happen in the first place,
but if they do, ignoring them seems to be the right thing to do.

Although there is no documentation available for Cyrix MII, I did find
erratum F-7 for Winchip C6, "FPU instruction may result in spurious
exception under certain conditions" which seems to indicate that this
can happen.

That would also explain the behaviour Ondrej Zary reported on the MII.
