2007-08-23ACPI: don't duplicate input events on netlinkZhang Rui
The previous events patch added a netlink event for every user of the legacy /proc/acpi/event interface. However, some users of /proc/acpi/event are really input events, and they already report their events via the input layer. Introduce a new interface, acpi_bus_generate_netlink_event(), which is explicitly called by devices that want to repoprt events via netlink. This allows the input-like events to opt-out of generating netlink events.

2007-08-23V4L/DVB (6042): b2c2-flexcop: fix Airstar HD5000 tuning regressionTrent Piepho
Git changeset 6bdcc6e6dbab8daffd05e5026486f34ba41a6c72 dropped the stand-alone lgh06xf module, whose functionality was absorbed into the dvb-pll module. However, there was a minor difference between the code in lgh06xf and dvb-pll, which caused a regression in b2c2-flexcop devices using the LG-H06xF NIM. dvb-pll will probe for the presence of an i2c pll chip by performing a single byte read, the lgh06xf driver did not do this. Unfortunately, the code in flexcop-i2c.c does not currently support 1 byte or 0 byte reads as a probe. Such probes with the current code will always fail. In order to work around this problem, and restore proper functionality of the Airstar HD5000 device, this hack was created to make the probe appear to succeed. The single byte read in dvb_pll_attach is the only place where such a probe would ever occur, so this change is safe, and will not affect any other devices. Of course, if one knew how to actually perform the read operation, it would be better to go that route. In the meantime, however, we must apply this workaround, in order to prevent the regression that causes tuning to fail on the Airstar HD5000 ATSC device. Thanks to Jarod Wilson, who had originally reported this regression, and to Geoffrey Hausheer, whose original workaround patch led us to find the actual cause of the problem.

2007-08-23sched: fix broken SMT/MC optimizationsSuresh Siddha
On a four package system with HT - HT load balancing optimizations were broken. For example, if two tasks end up running on two logical threads of one of the packages, scheduler is not able to pull one of the tasks to a completely idle package. In this scenario, for nice-0 tasks, imbalance calculated by scheduler will be 512 and find_busiest_queue() will return 0 (as each cpu's load is 1024 > imbalance and has only one task running). Similarly MC scheduler optimizations also get fixed with this patch.

2007-08-23sched: sched_clock_idle_[sleep|wakeup]_event()Ingo Molnar
construct a more or less wall-clock time out of sched_clock(), by using ACPI-idle's existing knowledge about how much time we spent idling. This allows the rq clock to work around TSC-stops-in-C2, TSC-gets-corrupted-in-C3 type of problems. ( Besides the scheduler's statistics this also benefits blktrace and printk-timestamps as well. ) Furthermore, the precise before-C2/C3-sleep and after-C2/C3-wakeup callbacks allow the scheduler to get out the most of the period where the CPU has a reliable TSC. This results in slightly more precise task statistics. the ACPI bits were acked by Len. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2007-08-23pata_pdc2027x: PLL detection fixesMikael Pettersson
Previously I reported that the pata_pdc2027x PLL detection changes in kernel 2.6.22 broke the driver on my PowerMac: >pata_pdc2027x: Invalid PLL input clock 1691742kHz, give up! This is followed by a number of errors and speed reduction steps on the affected ports. There are two bugs in pata_pdc2027x's PLL detection code: 1. The PLL counter's start value is read before the chip is put in "test mode". Outside of test mode the counter is halted, and on the PowerMac the counter is zero because the chip hasn't been initialised by its BIOS. The fix is to move the read of the start value to after test mode is started, but before the mdelay() in test mode. This also improves the precision of the PLL detection. 2. The code to compute the number of PLL decrements during the mdelay() in test mode fails to consider that the PLL counter only is 30 bits wide. If there is a wraparound, it will compute an incorrect and much too large value. On the PowerMac, the start count is zero, the end count is a large 30-bit value, so wraparound occurs and an out of bounds PLL clock is detected. The fix is to mask the (start - end) computation to 30 bits. While debugging this I also noticed that pdc_read_counter() reads the two halves of the 30-bit PLL counter as 16-bit values, and then combines them as if the halves only are 15 bits wide. To avoid confusion, the halves should be read as 15-bit values. This patch implements all three changes. It fixes the PLL detection failure on my PowerMac, and doesn't cause any regressions on an x86 with an identical card.

2007-08-22Apply memory policies to top two highest zones when highest zone is ZONE_MOVABLEMel Gorman
The NUMA layer only supports NUMA policies for the highest zone. When ZONE_MOVABLE is configured with kernelcore=, the the highest zone becomes ZONE_MOVABLE. The result is that policies are only applied to allocations like anonymous pages and page cache allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE when the zone is used. This patch applies policies to the two highest zones when the highest zone is ZONE_MOVABLE. As ZONE_MOVABLE consists of pages from the highest "real" zone, it's always functionally equivalent. The patch has been tested on a variety of machines both NUMA and non-NUMA covering x86, x86_64 and ppc64. No abnormal results were seen in kernbench, tbench, dbench or hackbench. It passes regression tests from the numactl package with and without kernelcore= once numactl tests are patched to wait for vmstat counters to update. akpm: this is the nasty hack to fix NUMA mempolicies in the presence of ZONE_MOVABLE and kernelcore= in 2.6.23. Christoph says "For .24 either merge the mobility or get the other solution that Mel is working on. That solution would only use a single zonelist per node and filter on the fly. That may help performance and also help to make memory policies work better."

2007-08-22autofs4: deadlock during createIan Kent
Due to inconsistent locking in the VFS between calls to lookup and revalidate deadlock can occur in the automounter. The inconsistency is that the directory inode mutex is held for both lookup and revalidate calls when called via lookup_hash whereas it is held only for lookup during a path walk. Consequently, if the mutex is held during a call to revalidate autofs4 can't release the mutex to callback the daemon as it can't know whether it owns the mutex. This situation happens when a process tries to create a directory within an automount and a second process also tries to create the same directory between the lookup and the mkdir. Since the first process has dropped the mutex for the daemon callback, the second process takes it during revalidate leading to deadlock between the autofs daemon and the second process when the daemon tries to create the mount point directory. After spending quite a bit of time trying to resolve this on more than one occassion, using rather complex and ulgy approaches, it turns out that just delaying the hashing of the dentry until the create operation works fine.

2007-08-22uml: fix previous request size limit fixJeff Dike
The previous patch which limited the number of sectors in a single request to a COWed device was correct in concept, but the limit was implemented in the wrong place. By putting it in ubd_add, it covered the cases where the COWing was specified on the command line. However, when the command line only has the COW file specified, the fact that it's a COW file isn't known until it's opened, so the limit is missed in these cases. This patch moves the sector limit from ubd_add to ubd_open_dev.

2007-08-22md: correctly update sysfs when a raid1 is reshapedNeilBrown
When a raid1 array is reshaped (number of drives changed), the list of devices is compacted, so that slots for missing devices are filled with working devices from later slots. This requires the "rd%d" symlinks in sysfs to be updated.
