2007-02-17ide: add ide_use_fast_pio() helper (v3)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* add ide_use_fast_pio() helper for use by host drivers * add DMA capability and hwif->autodma checks to ide_use_dma() - au1xxx-ide/it8213/it821x drivers didn't check for (id->capability & 1) [ for the IT8211/2 in SMART mode this check shouldn't be made but since in it821x_fixups() we set DMA bit explicitly: if(strstr(id->model, "Integrated Technology Express")) { /* In raid mode the ident block is slightly buggy We need to set the bits so that the IDE layer knows LBA28. LBA48 and DMA ar valid */ id->capability |= 3; /* LBA28, DMA */ we are better off using generic helper if we can ] - ide-cris driver didn't set ->autodma [ before the patch hwif->autodma was only checked in the chipset specific hwif->ide_dma_check implementations, for ide-cris it is cris_dma_check() function so there no behavior change here ] v2: * updated patch description (thanks to Alan Cox for the feedback) v3: * updated for scc_pata driver Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2007-02-17ide: unexport ide_set_xfer_rate() (v2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz

2007-02-17drivers/ide: PATA driver for CellebKou Ishizaki
This is the patch (based on 2.6.19-rc4) for PATA controller of Toshiba Cell reference set(Celleb). The reference set consists of Cell, 512MB memory, Super Companion Chip(SCC) and some peripherals such as HDD, GbE, etc. You can see brief explanation and picture of Cell reference set at following URLs. http://www.toshiba.co.jp/about/press/2005_09/pr2001.htm http://cell-industries.com/toshiba_announces.php We use a drivers/ide driver because its design is more suitable for SCC IDE controller than libata driver. Since SCC supports only 32bit read/write, we must override many callbacks of ata_port_operations by modifying generic helpers. Each time the libata common code is updated, we must update those modified helpers. It is very hard for us. But we will try to implement the libata driver as needed.

2007-02-17ide-floppy: Fix unformatted media crashAlan Cox
A ZIP or similar with unformatted media will cause crashes when attempts are made to read/write it in some cases. This is because bs_factor is zero and we divide by it causing an oops. As the size of a non-accessible/non-existant media is really a bit of a zen question it doesn't matter if non-existant media is 512 bytes per sector or zero. Setting it to 1 causes us to generate 512 bytes/sector accesses and error properly.

2007-02-16[PATCH] knfsd: stop NFSD writes from being broken into lots of little writes ↵NeilBrown
to filesystem When NFSD receives a write request, the data is typically in a number of 1448 byte segments and writev is used to collect them together. Unfortunately, generic_file_buffered_write passes these to the filesystem one at a time, so an e.g. 32K over-write becomes a series of partial-page writes to each page, causing the filesystem to have to pre-read those pages - wasted effort. generic_file_buffered_write handles one segment of the vector at a time as it has to pre-fault in each segment to avoid deadlocks. When writing from kernel-space (and nfsd does) this is not an issue, so generic_file_buffered_write does not need to break and iovec from nfsd into little pieces. This patch avoids the splitting when get_fs is KERNEL_DS as it is from NFSd.

2007-02-16[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: acls: avoid unnecessary deniesJ. Bruce Fields
We're inserting deny's between some ACEs in order to enforce posix draft acl semantics which prevent permissions from accumulating across entries in an acl. That's fine, but we're doing that by inserting a deny after *every* allow, which is overkill. We shouldn't be adding them in places where they actually make no difference. Also replaced some helper functions for creating acl entries; I prefer just assigning directly to the struct fields--it takes a few more lines, but the field names provide some documentation that I think makes the result easier understand.

2007-02-16[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: relax checking of ACL inheritance bitsJ. Bruce Fields
The rfc allows us to be more permissive about the ACL inheritance bits we accept: "If the server supports a single "inherit ACE" flag that applies to both files and directories, the server may reject the request (i.e., requiring the client to set both the file and directory inheritance flags). The server may also accept the request and silently turn on the ACE4_DIRECTORY_INHERIT_ACE flag." Let's take the latter option--the ACL is a complex attribute that could be rejected for a wide variety of reasons, and the protocol gives us little ability to explain the reason for the rejection, so erroring out is a user-unfriendly last resort.

2007-02-16[PATCH] genirq: do not mask interrupts by defaultIngo Molnar
Never mask interrupts immediately upon request. Disabling interrupts in high-performance codepaths is rare, and on the other hand this change could recover lost edges (or even other types of lost interrupts) by conservatively only masking interrupts after they happen. (NOTE: with this change the highlevel irq-disable code still soft-disables this IRQ line - and if such an interrupt happens then the IRQ flow handler keeps the IRQ masked.)

2007-02-16[PATCH] posix timers: RCU optimization for clock_gettime()Paul E. McKenney
Use RCU to avoid the need to acquire tasklist_lock in the single-threaded case of clock_gettime(). It still acquires tasklist_lock when for a (potentially multithreaded) process. This change allows realtime applications to frequently monitor CPU consumption of individual tasks, as requested (and now deployed) by some off-list users. This has been in Ingo Molnar's -rt patchset since late 2005 with no problems reported, and tests successfully on 2.6.20-rc6, so I believe that it is long-since ready for mainline adoption.

2007-02-16[PATCH] time: x86_64: split x86_64/kernel/time.c upjohn stultz
In preparation for the x86_64 generic time conversion, this patch splits out TSC and HPET related code from arch/x86_64/kernel/time.c into respective hpet.c and tsc.c files.

2007-02-16[PATCH] time: x86_64: hpet_address cleanupjohn stultz
In preparation for supporting generic timekeeping, this patch cleans up x86-64's use of vxtime.hpet_address, changing it to just hpet_address as is also used in i386. This is necessary since the vxtime structure will be going away.
