2007-11-28USB: power-management documenation updateAlan Stern
This patch (as1014) was partly written by Tilman Schmidt. It clarifies the USB power-management documentation by explaining that when a disconnect occurs, a suspend method call might not be followed by either a resume or a reset_resume call.

2007-11-28USB: Fix signr comment in usbdevice_fs.hPhil Endecott
This trivial documentation patch corrects a comment in usbdevice_fs.h; it previously suggested that the signal would only be sent on error, but I am told that it is sent on both successful and unsuccessful completion, and that zero indicates that no signal should be sent.

2007-11-28usbserial: fix inconsistent lock stateBorislav Petkov
In commit acd2a847e7fee7df11817f67dba75a2802793e5d usb_serial_generic_write() disables interrupts when taking &port->lock which is also taken in usb_serial_generic_read_bulk_callback() resulting in an inconsistent lock state due to the latter not disabling interrupts on the local cpu. Fix that by disabling interrupts in the latter call site also.

2007-11-28usb-storage: always set the allow_restart flagMauro Carvalho Chehab
This patch (as1000) sets the SCSI allow_restart flag for USB disk devices. In theory this should never hurt, and there definitely are devices out there (such as the Seagate 250-GB external drive) which need the flag to be set.

2007-11-28sysfs: fix off-by-one error in fill_read_buffer()Miao Xie
I found that there is a off-by-one problem in the following code. Version: 2.6.24-rc2 File: fs/sysfs/file.c:118-122 Function: fill_read_buffer -------------------------------------------------------------------- count = ops->show(kobj, attr_sd->s_attr.attr, buffer->page); sysfs_put_active_two(attr_sd); BUG_ON(count > (ssize_t)PAGE_SIZE); -------------------------------------------------------------------- Because according to the specification of the sysfs and the implement of the show methods, the show methods return the number of bytes which would be generated for the given input, excluding the trailing null.So if the return value of the show methods equals PAGE_SIZE - 1, the buffer is full in fact. And if the return value equals PAGE_SIZE, the resulting string was already truncated,or buffer overflow occurred. This patch fixes an off-by-one error in fill_read_buffer.

2007-11-28create /sys/.../power when CONFIG_PM is setDaniel Drake
The CONFIG_SUSPEND changes in 2.6.23 caused a regression under certain configuration conditions (SUSPEND=n, USB_AUTOSUSPEND=y) where all USB device attributes in sysfs (idVendor, idProduct, ...) silently disappeared, causing udev breakage and more. The cause of this is that the /sys/.../power subdirectory is now only created when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is set, however, it should be created whenever CONFIG_PM is set to handle the above situation. The following patch fixes the regression. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Acked-by: Rafael J.

2007-11-28prep_zero_page: remove bogus BUG_ONHugh Dickins
2.6.11 gave __GFP_ZERO's prep_zero_page a bogus "highmem may have to wait" assertion. Presumably added under the misconception that clear_highpage uses nonatomic kmap; but then and now it uses kmap_atomic, so no problem.

2007-11-27ocfs2: reverse inline-data truncate argsMark Fasheh
ocfs2_truncate() and ocfs2_remove_inode_range() had reversed their "set i_size" arguments to ocfs2_truncate_inline(). Fix things so that truncate sets i_size, and punching a hole ignores it. This exposed a problem where punching a hole in an inline-data file wasn't updating the page cache, so fix that too. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

2007-11-27ocfs2: Remove bug statement in ocfs2_dentry_iput()Mark Fasheh
The existing bug statement didn't take into account unhashed dentries which might not have a cluster lock on them. This could happen if a node exporting the file system via NFS is rebooted, re-exported to nfs clients and then unmounted. It's fine in this case to not have a dentry cluster lock. Just remove the bug statement and replace it with an error print, which does the proper checks. Though we want to know if something has happened which might have prevented a cluster lock from being created, it's definitely not necessary to panic the machine for this.

2007-11-27[PATCH] ocfs2: Remove expensive bitmap scanningJan Kara

2007-11-27IPoIB: Fix oops if xmit is called when priv->broadcast is NULLJack Morgenstein
If a port goes down, ipoib_ib_dev_down() is invoked -- which flushes the mcasts (clearing priv->broadcast) and clearing the path record cache. If ipoib_start_xmit() is then invoked (before the broadcast group is rejoined), a kernel oops results from attempting to access priv->broadcast, which is still unset. Returning NULL from path_rec_create() if priv->broadcast is NULL is a harmless way of bypassing the problem -- the offending packet is simply discarded "without prejudice."
