Its possible that we can write to the hvc_console tty as soon it is

Unfortunately at this stage we have not started the khvcd kernel thread and

[ALSA] Remove superfluous PCI ID definitions
broke the RME32 and RME96 drivers, since the PCI IDs they use seem to have
changed names. Here's a patch to fix this -- compile tested only, since I
have no idea what the hardware even is.
Fix the build of the RME32 and RME96 drivers by having them use the
PCI_DEVICE_ID_RME_xxx names defined in <linux/pci_ids.h> instead of the
PCI_DEVICE_ID_xxx names that they used to define themselves.
Also fix the typo in the id PCI_DEVICE_IDRME__DIGI96_8_PAD_OR_PST so the
name is PCI_DEVICE_ID_RME_DIGI96_8_PAD_OR_PST.

[PATCH] Fix slab BUG_ON() triggered by change in array cache size
With the new changes that we made in the initialization of the slab
allocator, we first setup the cache from which array caches are allocated,
and then the cache, from which kmem_list3's are allocated.
Now if the array cache comes from a cache in which objsize > 32, (in this
instance size-64) then, first size-64 cache will be allocated and then the
size-128 (if this is the cache from which kmem_list3's are going to be
allocated).
So with these new changes, we are not guaranteed that we will be
initializing the malloc_sizes array in a serialized order. Thus there is
a bug in __find_general_cachep, as we are checking whether the first
cache_sizes ptr is NULL.
This is replaced by checking whether the array-cache cache is initialized.
Attached is a patch which does that. Boots fine on a x86-64, with
DEBUG_SPIN, DEBUG_SLAB, and preempt.

[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.

but release_task does
write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock)

__exit_sighand
__unhash_process

thread.
And actually there is no need for all threads to have exited at this
point, so we simply kill the BUG_ON.

My patch "Separate pci bits out of struct device_node" (commit
1635317facea3094ddf34082cd86797efb1d9f7e) had the unfortunate
side-effect that it stopped eeh_init() from working correctly.
It needs the pointers set up by find_and_init_phbs(), but it was being
called just before find_and_init_phbs(). That meant that we didn't
enable EEH (pSeries PCI error recovery) on any devices, and that meant
that on POWER5 systems, the hypervisor wouldn't let us enable memory or
I/O space access to any devices, and their drivers got somewhat
confused.

[PATCH] v4l: experimental Sliced VBI API support
Adds all defines, ioctls and structs needed for the sliced VBI API
VBI = Vertical Blank Interval.
It is related with the way TV signals work. It sends a line, then, it has a
retrace time to allow the tube to move electrons to the beginning of the next
line. This was the main reason at the beginning of analog B&W TV.
There is a lot of bandwidth lost on VBI. So, lots of TV systems use it to
send other information such as Closed Captions and Teletext. Also,
broadcasters uses this as a channel to exchange information from the content
producer to their subsidiaries at each city.
There's already a raw VBI interface on V4L2 api, used for Closed Captions and
Teletext. The decoding is doing at userlevel space and it is mostly for
analog TV signals, non encoded.
Encoded signals (MPEG, for example), may need also to transmit other
information (like, for example, display aspect, i.e. 4x3, widescreen...).
Sliced VBI interface is a method to allow the video stream to transmit this
kind of information.

[PATCH] set_current_state() commentary
Explain the mysteries of set_current_state().
Quoth Linus:
The scheduler itself never needs the memory barrier at all.
The barrier is needed only if the user itself ends up testing some other
thing afterwards, ie if you have
set_process_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (still_need_to_sleep())
schedule();
then the "still_need_to_sleep()" thing may test flags and wakeup events,
and then you _may_ want to (and often do) make sure that the write of
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is serialized wrt the reads of any wakeup data (since
the wakeup may have happened on another CPU).
So the comment is somewhat wrong. We don't really _care_ whether the state
propagates out to other CPU's since all of our actions are purely local,
and there is nothing we do that is conditional on any other CPU: we're
going to sleep unconditionally, and the scheduler only cares about _our_
state, not about somebody elses state.

[PATCH] Make BUILD_BUG_ON fail at compile time.
Force a compiler error instead of a link error, because they are easier to
track down. Idea stolen from code by Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com>
If the argument to BUILD_BUG_ON evaluates to non-zero the compiler will do:
t.c:6: error: size of array `type name' is negative
(surprised that gcc doesn't have an extension for this)

[PATCH] open returns ENFILE but creates file anyway
When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file
may be created anyway. This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3
specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not
coded correctly to handle this semantic. The SUS V3 specification
explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function
returns -1.".
The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is
full and no more file structs can be allocated.
This is due to an ordering problem. The entry in the directory is created
before the file struct is allocated. If the allocation for the file struct
fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry
was already created and can not be safely removed.
The solution to this situation is relatively easy. The file struct should
be allocated before the directory entry is created. If the allocation
fails, then the error can be returned directly. If the creation of the
directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.

[PATCH] ppc32: discard *.exit.text and *.exit.data sections
Discard *.exit.text sections on runtime. We cannot do this on link time
because of the way BUG macros are implemented. If "__exit function" calls
one of those macros, __bug_table section will reference this function.
This is similar to ".altinstructions" situation on i386.
*.exit.data seems to be OK in this respect and is discarded on link
time.
