[PATCH] RocketPoint 1520 [hpt366] fails clock stabilization

I just purchased a HighPoint Rocket 1520 SATA controller.  There seems to
be no libata driver (yet), but there is an ide driver, hpt366.  When the
driver gets loaded, it causes a kernel NULL pointer dereference in
pci_bus_clock_list.  It seems to be because the driver is waiting for clock
stabilization in init_hpt37x() which never comes.  The driver just
continues on with the pci drvdata set to NULL, instead of a valid clock
entry.  The following patch prevents the NULL dereference from happening,
but instead exit with an error.

addr->channels[] is of size IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS, I have made a patch that
uses IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS for all the checks for the array index.

Zhang, Yanmin [Fri, 3 Feb 2006 11:04:36 +0000 (03:04 -0800)] 
[PATCH] Export cpu topology in sysfs

The patch implements cpu topology exportation by sysfs.

Items (attributes) are similar to /proc/cpuinfo.

1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id:
represent the physical package id of  cpu X;
2) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_id:
represent the cpu core id to cpu X;
3) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings:
represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same core;
4) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_siblings:
represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same physical package;

To implement it in an architecture-neutral way, a new source file,
driver/base/topology.c, is to export the 5 attributes.

If one architecture wants to support this feature, it just needs to
implement 4 defines, typically in file include/asm-XXX/topology.h.
The 4 defines are:
#define topology_physical_package_id(cpu)
#define topology_core_id(cpu)
#define topology_thread_siblings(cpu)
#define topology_core_siblings(cpu)

The type of **_id is int.
The type of siblings is cpumask_t.

To be consistent on all architectures, the 4 attributes should have
deafult values if their values are unavailable. Below is the rule.

1) physical_package_id: If cpu has no physical package id, -1 is the
default value.

2) core_id: If cpu doesn't support multi-core, its core id is 0.

3) thread_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
HT/multi-thread.

4) core_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
multi-core and HT/Multi-thread.

So be careful when declaring the 4 defines in include/asm-XXX/topology.h.

If an attribute isn't defined on an architecture, it won't be exported.

Thank Nathan, Greg, Andi, Paul and Venki.

The patch provides defines for i386/x86_64/ia64.

[PATCH] lib: Fix bug in int_sqrt() for 64 bit longs

The implementation of int_sqrt() assumes that longs have 32 bits.  On
systems that have 64 bit longs this will result in gross errors when the
argument to the function is greater than 2^32 - 1 on such systems.  I doubt

[PATCH] fix O_DIRECT read of last block in a sparse file

Currently, if you open a file O_DIRECT, truncate it to a size that is not a
multiple of the disk block size, and then try to read the last block in the
file, the read will return 0.  The problem is in do_direct_IO, here:

        /* Handle holes */
        if (!buffer_mapped(map_bh)) {
                char *kaddr;

...

                if (dio->block_in_file >=

                        /* We hit eof */
                        page_cache_release(page);
                        goto out;
                }

We shift off any remaining bytes in the final block of the I/O, resulting
in a 0-sized read.  I've attached a patch that fixes this.  I'm not happy
about how ugly the math is getting, so suggestions are more than welcome.

I've tested this with a simple program that performs the steps outlined for
reproducing the problem above.  Without the patch, we get a 0-sized result
from read.  With the patch, we get the correct return value from the short
read.

(i.e., regs).

This assumption is wrong for x86_64 because NMIs in x86_64 use a seperate
stack different from the kernel stack.  Therefore, the variable stack now
points to some location on the NMI stack, which turns out to be at a higher
address than the frame pointer (headaddr) on the kernel stack.  The correct
comparison here should be between headaddr and regs->rsp for x86_64.

[PATCH] device-mapper log bitset: fix big endian find_next_zero_bit

This is a fix to the device-mapper-log-bitset-fix-endian patch that
switched to ext2_* versions of the set and clear bit functions.  The
find_next_zero_bit function also has to be the ext2 one.  Otherwise the
mirror target tries to recover non-existent regions beyond the end of
device.

not remove the bitmap when switching an array to read-only because
 a/ There is no code to re-add the bitmap which switching to read-write,

[PATCH] md: Fix device-size updates in md

As 'array_size' is a 'sector_t', it may overflow inappropriately when shifted
10 bits.  So We should cast it to a loff_t first.

There are two places with this problem, but the second (in update_raid_disks)
isn't needed so just remove it:
  The only personality that handles ->reshape currently is raid1,
  and it doesn't change the size of the array.
  When added for raid5/6, reshape again won't change the size of the array,
  at least not straight away.
  This code might be need for reshaping 'linear' but linear->shape,
  if implemented, should probably do the i_size_write itself.

Problem caused by the fact that the code used to only pick the low 16
bits of the bytecount.  That may be how some controllers act on it (byte
count of 0 means 0x10000), but not for this particular hardware.
