[PATCH] fix in __alloc_bootmem_core() when there is no free page in first node's memory
Hitting BUG_ON() in __alloc_bootmem_core() when there is no free page
available in the first node's memory. For the case of kdump on PPC64
(Power 4 machine), the captured kernel is used two memory regions - memory
for TCE tables (tce-base and tce-size at top of RAM and reserved) and
captured kernel memory region (crashk_base and crashk_size). Since we
reserve the memory for the first node, we should be returning from
__alloc_bootmem_core() to search for the next node (pg_dat).
Currently, find_next_zero_bit() is returning the n^th bit (eidx) when there
is no free page. Then, test_bit() is failed since we set 0xff only for the
actual size initially (init_bootmem_core()) even though rounded up to one
page for bdata->node_bootmem_map. We are hitting the BUG_ON after failing
to enter second "for" loop.

[PATCH] Fix listxattr() for generic security attributes
Commit
f549d6c18c0e8e6cf1bf0e7a47acc1daf7e2cec1 introduced a generic
fallback for security xattrs, but appears to include a subtle bug.
Gentoo users with kernels with selinux compiled in, and coreutils compiled
with acl support, noticed that they could not copy files on tmpfs using
'cp'.
cp (compiled with acl support) copies the file, lists the extended
attributes on the old file, copies them all to the new file, and then
exits. However the listxattr() calls were failing with this odd behaviour:
llistxattr("a.out", (nil), 0) = 17
llistxattr("a.out", 0x7fffff8c6cb0, 17) = -1 ERANGE (Numerical result out of
range)
I believe this is a simple problem in the logic used to check the buffer
sizes; if the user sends a buffer the exact size of the data, then its ok
:)
This change solves the problem.

On most powerpc CPUs, the dcache and icache are not coherent so
between writing and executing a page, the caches must be flushed.
Userspace programs assume pages given to them by the kernel are icache
clean, so we must do this flush between the kernel clearing a page and
it being mapped into userspace for execute. We were not doing this

We use the same lazy mechanism as we use for normal pages, delaying

Cache info is setup by walking the device tree in initialize_cache_info().
However, icache_flush_range might be called before that, in
slb_initialize()->patch_slb_encoding, which modifies the load immediate
instructions used with SLB fault code.
Not only that, but depending on memory layout, we might take SLB faults
during unflatten_device_tree. So that fault will load an SLB entry that
might not contain the right LLP flags for the segment.
Either we can walk the flattened device tree to setup cache info, or
we can pick the known defaults that are known to work. Doing it in the
flattened device tree is hairier since we need to know the machine type
to know what property to look for, etc, etc.
For now, it's just easier to go with the defaults. Worst thing that
happens from it is that we might waste a few cycles doing too small

[IPV4] Fix EPROTONOSUPPORT error in inet_create
There is a coding error in inet_create that causes it to always return
ESOCKTNOSUPPORT. It should return EPROTONOSUPPORT when there are
protocols registered for a given socket type but none of them match
the requested protocol.
This is based on a patch by Jayachandran C.

[IGMP]: workaround for IGMP v1/v2 bug
From: David Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com>
As explained at:
http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/~krishna/igmp_dos/
With IGMP version 1 and 2 it is possible to inject a unicast
report to a client which will make it ignore multicast
reports sent later by the router.
The fix is to only accept the report if is was sent to a
multicast or unicast address.

[PATCH] Fix TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG in ACPI idle routines
Commit
64c7c8f88559624abdbe12b5da6502e8879f8d28 broke the ACPI C2 and C3
sleep states, because it left TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG active even though
those states do not actually poll the reschedule flag at all. As a
result, the CPU wouldn't get sent an IPI when it was to be woken up, and
would only notice that it had runnable processes on the next timer tick.

[SCSI] sg and st unmap_user_pages allow PageReserved
2.6.15-rc1 made sg's st_unmap_user_pages and st's sgl_unmap_user_pages
BUG on a PageReserved page. But that's wrong: they could be unmapping
the ZERO_PAGE, which is marked PG_reserved; and perhaps others (while
get_user_pages is still permitted on VM_PFNMAP areas - that may change).
More change is needed here: sg claims to dirty even pages written from,
and st claims not to dirty even pages read into; and SetPageDirty is not
adequate for this nowadays. Fixes to those follow in a later patch: for
the moment just fix the 2.6.15 regression.
