2010-07-21drm/radeon/kms: drop taking lock around crtc lookup.Dave Airlie
We only add/remove crtcs at driver load, you cannot remove when the GPU is running a CS packet since the fd is open, when GPU hotplugging on radeons actually is needed all this locking needs a review and I've started re-working kms core locking to deal with this better. But for now avoid long delays in CS processing when hotplug detect is happening in a different thread. this fixes a regression introduced with hotplug detection.

2010-07-21Input: twl40300-keypad - fix handling of "all ground" rowsDmitry Torokhov
The Nokia RX51 board code (arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-rx51-peripherals.c) defines a key map for the matrix keypad keyboard. The hardware seems to use all of the 8 rows and 8 columns of the keypad, although not all possible locations are used. The TWL4030 supports keypads with at most 8 rows and 8 columns. Most keys are defined with a row and column number between 0 and 7, except KEY(0xff, 2, KEY_F9), KEY(0xff, 4, KEY_F10), KEY(0xff, 5, KEY_F11), which represent keycodes that should be emitted when entire row is connected to the ground. since the driver handles this case as if we had an extra column in the key matrix. Unfortunately we do not allocate enough space and end up owerwriting some random memory.

On nv50 it became impossible to attempt a PCI ROM shadow of the VBIOS, which will break some setups. This patch also removes the different ordering of shadow methods for pre-nv50 chipsets.

2010-07-20drm/radeon/kms: fix shared ddc harderAlex Deucher
This fixes a regression caused by b2ea4aa67bfd084834edd070e0a4a47857d6db59 due to the way shared ddc with multiple digital connectors was handled. You generally have two cases where DDC lines are shared: - HDMI + VGA - HDMI + DVI-D HDMI + VGA is easy to deal with because you can check the EDID for the to see if the attached monitor is digital. A shared DDC line with two digital connectors is more complex. You can't use the hdmi bits in the EDID since they may not be there with DVI<->HDMI adapters. In this case all we can do is check the HPD pins to see which is connected as we have no way of knowing using the EDID.

A lot of 945GMs have had stability issues for a long time, this manifested as X hangs, blitter engine hangs, and lots of crashes. one such report is at: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20560 along with numerous distro bugzillas. This only took a week of digging and hair ripping to figure out. Tracked down and tested on a 945GM Lenovo T60, previously running x11perf -copypixwin500 or x11perf -copywinpix500 repeatedly would cause the GPU to wedge within 4 or 5 tries, with random busy bits set.

The length filed in the chsc response block (if valid) has a value of n*(sizeof(chp_desc))+8 (for the response block header). When we memcopied from the response block to the actual descriptor we copied 8 bytes too much. The bug was not revealed since the descriptor is embedded in struct channel_path.

2010-07-18drm/i915: add 'reclaimable' to i915 self-reclaimable page allocationsLinus Torvalds
The hibernate issues that got fixed in commit 985b823b9192 ("drm/i915: fix hibernation since i915 self-reclaim fixes") turn out to have been incomplete. Vefa Bicakci tested lots of hibernate cycles, and without the __GFP_RECLAIMABLE flag the system eventually fails to resume. With the flag added, Vefa can apparently hibernate forever (or until he gets bored running his automated scripts, whichever comes first). The reclaimable flag was there originally, and was one of the flags that were dropped (unintentionally) by commit 4bdadb978569 ("drm/i915: Selectively enable self-reclaim") that introduced all these problems, but I didn't want to just blindly add back all the flags in commit 985b823b9192, and it looked like __GFP_RECLAIM wasn't necessary. It clearly was. I still suspect that there is some subtle reason we're missing that causes the problems, but __GFP_RECLAIMABLE is certainly not wrong to use in this context, and is what the code historically used. And we have no idea what the causes the corruption without it. Reported-and-tested-by: M.

2010-07-16ibmveth: lost IRQ while closing/opening device leads to service lossRobert Jennings
The order of freeing the IRQ and freeing the device in firmware in ibmveth_close can cause the adapter to become unusable after a subsequent ibmveth_open. Only a reboot of the OS will make the network device usable again. This is seen when cycling the adapter up and down while there is network activity. There is a window where an IRQ will be left unserviced (H_EOI will not be called). The solution is to make a VIO_IRQ_DISABLE h_call, free the device with firmware, and then call free_irq.
