 Hmm, that only proved the 8259A is indeed wired to the pin #2 of the I/O
APIC.

 Well, the IC block is most likely the same as that's not rocket science
and once done there is no need to fiddle with that.  That written, I am
afraid there is nothing useful about the IC in the document, except that
it's there and consists of an I/O APIC providing 24 inputs and the usual
pair of 8259A cores.  Thanks for the reference anyway.

> There is an interrupt controller in there, but I'm not sure if there's any
> 8259A.  The northbridge is on the CPU, actually.

 I will praise the day someone ships an x86 machine without an 8259A core!

 As expressed in another mail I suspect there may actually be a direct
route from the 8254 to INTIN0 in the southbridge -- this is what other
bootstrap logs seen in the Internet suggest.  This would mean this
particular BIOS is buggy (is it the latest version?) and provides an
incorrect IRQ override in its ACPI tables, for example because the
responsible block has been blindly copied from a machine using a commoner
wiring.  This could be moderately easily fixed up with a quirk based on
the PCI ID (after checking it again, we actually used to have a quirk for
ATI in this area, but the way it was done suggests the issue was not
understood well enough).

 Could you please remove the hack sent yesterday and test the patch
provided below?  I do hope it builds, but I have no immediate means to
check it.  Please report the output.  The intent is to test INTIN0
directly before testing INTIN2 through the 8259A.  Thanks.

 Aside of that, what I have gathered from your reports (please correct me
if I have got it wrong) is that when the through-8259A mode is used, then
after a while 8254 timer interrupts stop arriving.  What's interesting,
the "Virtual Wire IRQ" seems to work for you correctly (that's quite an
odd setup where a local APIC input is used in the native mode -- please
post /proc/interrupts for confirmation), which in turn implies the master
8259A drives its INT output as we expect.  Why would the I/O APIC input
have problems then?  Hmm...

Thanks.  In this case I suspect the case #1 quoted above happens, that is
the 8259A manages to deliver its interrupt somehow.  Note at this stage it
is meant to be in the AEOI mode, so it can happily resubmit the interrupt
indefinitely with no additional handling as long as it receives INTA
cycles.

Can you please try the patch below on top of "x86: I/O APIC: timer
through 8259A second-chance" to see whether my hypothesis is true?  It
modifies the through-8259A setup path so that the APIC input gets masked,
but the 8259A has the timer interrupt still enabled.  Let me know how the
timer interrupt is routed in this case.

misleading messages).

Obviously if we try the first-chance path without being told by the BIOS
to do so, we should not complain either, so do not print the message in
this case.

KVM: IOAPIC: Fix level-triggered irq injection hang

The "remote_irr" variable is used to indicate an interrupt
which has been received by the LAPIC, but not acked.

In our EOI handler, we unset remote_irr and re-inject the
interrupt if the interrupt line is still asserted.

However, we do not set remote_irr here, leading to a
situation where if kvm_ioapic_set_irq() is called, then we go
ahead and call ioapic_service(). This means that IRR is
re-asserted even though the interrupt is currently in service
(i.e. LAPIC IRR is cleared and ISR/TMR set)

The issue with this is that when the currently executing
interrupt handler finishes and writes LAPIC EOI, then TMR is
unset and EOI sent to the IOAPIC. Since IRR is now asserted,
but TMR is not, then when the second interrupt is handled,
no EOI is sent and if there is any pending interrupt, it is
not re-injected.

This fixes a hang only seen while running mke2fs -j on an
8Gb virtio disk backed by a fully sparse raw file, with

Fix pagemap_read() use of struct mm_walk

Fix some issues in pagemap_read noted by Alexey:

- initialize pagemap_walk.mm to "mm" , so the code starts working as
  advertised

- initialize ->private to "&pm" so it wouldn't immediately oops in
  pagemap_pte_hole()

- unstatic struct pagemap_walk, so two threads won't fsckup each other
  (including those started by root, including flipping ->mm when you don't
  have permissions)

- pagemap_read() contains two calls to ptrace_may_attach(), second one
  looks unneeded.

- avoid possible kmalloc(0) and integer wraparound.

cciss: read config to obtain max outstanding commands per controller

This patch changes the way we determine the maximum number of outstanding
commands for each controller.

Most Smart Array controllers can support up to 1024 commands, the notable
exceptions are the E200 and E200i.

The next generation of controllers which were just added support a mode of
operation called Zero Memory Raid (ZMR).  In this mode they only support
64 outstanding commands.  In Full Function Raid (FFR) mode they support
1024.

We have been setting the queue depth by arbitrarily assigning some value
for each controller.  We needed a better way to set the queue depth to
avoid lots of annoying "fifo full" messages.  So we made the driver a
little smarter.  We now read the config table and subtract 4 from the
returned value.  The -4 is to allow some room for ioctl calls which are
not tracked the same way as io commands are tracked.

security: filesystem capabilities: fix fragile setuid fixup code

This commit includes a bugfix for the fragile setuid fixup code in the
case that filesystem capabilities are supported (in access()).  The effect
of this fix is gated on filesystem capability support because changing
securebits is only supported when filesystem capabilities support is
configured.)

16 years agospi: fix the read path in spidev
Sebastian Siewior [Fri, 4 Jul 2008 16:59:56 +0000 (09:59 -0700)] 
spi: fix the read path in spidev

This got broken by the recent "fix rmmod $spi_driver while spidev-user is
active".  I tested the rmmod & write path but didn't check the read path.
I am sorry.  The read logic changed and spidev_sync_read() +
spidev_sync_write() do not return zero on success anymore but the number
of bytes that has been transfered over the bus.  This patch changes the
logic and copy_to_user() gets called again.

The write path returns the number of bytes which are written to the
underlying device what may be less than the requested size.  This patch
makes the same change to the read path or else we request a read of 20
bytes, get 10, don't call copy to user and report to the user that we read
10 bytes.

Foundation.  It's still a little unclear how long the LF money will last

* Properly documenting every new Linux kernel-userland (and glibc) API,

  before actual release.  (That's the ideal, but there's a quite a
  backlog, so I'm not going to achieve the ideal immediately.)

* Testing new APIs, again ideally before they are released into the
  mainline kernel, and probably doing some light bug fixing while I'm at
  it (e.g., the recent utimensat() work).

* Design review of new APIs, which of course can only usefully be done
  before they are released into the mainline kernel.

* And of course accepting patches and dealing with bug reports for
  existing man pages.
