2007-05-30ACPI: Make _OSI(Linux) a special caseLen Brown
_OSI("Linux") is like _OS("Linux"), it is ill-defined and virtually no BIOS vendors test interaction with it. As a result, it can do more damage than good because it causes the BIOS to follow un-tested paths. Recently, several machines have turned up that erroneously test this string in a way which causes them to _not_ test other compatibility strings, including the ZI9 and Toshiba. So it appears that this bad code has made it into a BIOS vendor's reference BIOS. Linux has no choice but to stop advertising compatibility with _OSI string "Linux" - as there are an unbounded number of possible incompatibilities going forward. But some BIOSes have already shipped which do use it for things like conditionally re-enabling video on resume from S3. (Too bad they didn't do that unconditionally) Add special case code for _OSI(Linux) Squawk to dmesg if _OSI(Linux) is requested Add DMI list both to enable and disable _OSI(Linux) But for now, keep the default enabled via #define OSI_LINUX_ENABLED. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7787 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2007-05-29ACPI: extend "acpi_osi=" boot optionLen Brown
The boot option "acpi_osi=" has always disabled Linux _OSI support, thus disabling all OS Interface strings which are advertised by Linux to the BIOS. Now... acpi_osi="string" adds the interface string, and acpi_osi="!string" invalidates the pre-defined interface string eg. acpi_osi="!Windows 2006" would disable Linux's claim of Vista compatibility.

2007-05-25fix compat console unimap regressionHugh Dickins
Why is it that since the 2f1a2ccb9c0de632ab07193becf5f7121794f6ae console UTF-8 fixes went into 2.6.22-rc1, the PowerMac G5 shows only inverse video question marks for the text on tty2-6? whereas tty1 is fine, and so is x86. No fault of that patch: by removing the old fallback behaviour, it reveals that 32-bit setfont running on 64-bit kernels has only really worked on the current console, the rest getting faked by that inadequate fallback. Bring the compat do_unimap_ioctl into line with the main one: PIO_UNIMAP and GIO_UNIMAP apply to the specified tty, not redirected to fg_console. Use the same checks, and most particularly, remember to check access_ok: con_set_unimap and con_get_unimap are using __get_user and __put_user. And the compat vt_check should ask for the same capability as the main one, CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG rather than CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Added in vt_ioctl's vc_cons_allocated check for safety, though failure may well be impossible.

2007-05-24[XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.David S. Miller
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the -EAGAIN buisness we had before. Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules. We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in libc. With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default. This lays the framework to either: 1) Make this default at some point or... 2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of. The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved in a certain amount of time. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Some SATA controllers (sata_sil) use 0xff to indicate port not ready status, not port empty. As libata interprets 0xff as port empty, this causes unnecessary reset failure and retry.

2007-05-24[NET]: "wrong timeout value" in sk_wait_data() v2Vasily Averin
sys_setsockopt() do not check properly timeout values for SO_RCVTIMEO/SO_SNDTIMEO, for example it's possible to set negative timeout values. POSIX do not defines behaviour for sys_setsockopt in case negative timeouts, but requires that setsockopt() shall fail with -EDOM if the send and receive timeout values are too big to fit into the timeout fields in the socket structure. In current implementation negative timeout can lead to error messages like "schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value". Proposed patch: - checks tv_usec and returns -EDOM if it is wrong - do not allows to set negative timeout values (sets 0 instead) and outputs ratelimited information message about such attempts.
