2005-05-03[PPP]: remove redundant NULL pointer checks before kfree & vfreeJesper Juhl

2005-05-03[WAN]: kfree of NULL pointer is validJesper Juhl
kfree(0) is perfectly valid, checking pointers for NULL before calling kfree() on them is redundant. The patch below cleans away a few such redundant checks (and while I was around some of those bits I couldn't stop myself from making a few tiny whitespace changes as well).

2005-05-03[RTNETLINK] Fix & cleanup rtm_min/rtm_maxThomas Graf
Converts rtm_min and rtm_max arrays to use c99 designated initializers for easier insertion of new message families. RTM_GETMULTICAST and RTM_GETANYCAST did not have the minimal message size specified which means that the netlink message was parsed for routing attributes starting from the header. Adds the proper minimal message sizes for these messages (netlink header + common rtnetlink header) to fix this issue. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-05-03[RTNETLINK] Fix RTM_MAX to represent the maximum valid message typeThomas Graf
RTM_MAX is currently set to the maximum reserverd message type plus one thus being the cause of two bugs for new types being assigned a) given the new family registers only the NEW command in its reserved block the array size for per family entries is calculated one entry short and b) given the new family registers all commands RTM_MAX would point to the first entry of the block following this one and the rtnetlink receive path would accept a message type for a nonexisting family. This patch changes RTM_MAX to point to the maximum valid message type by aligning it to the start of the next block and subtracting one.

2005-05-03[IPV6]: Fix raw socket checksums with IPsecHerbert Xu
I made a mistake in my last patch to the raw socket checksum code. I used the value of inet->cork.length as the length of the payload. While this works with normal packets, it breaks down when IPsec is present since the cork length includes the extension header length. So here is a patch to fix the length calculations.

2005-05-03[PATCH] ppc64: fix gcc 4.0 vs CONFIG_ALTIVECBenjamin Herrenschmidt
gcc-4.0 generates altivec code implicitly when -mcpu indicates an altivec capable CPU which is not suitable for the kernel. However, we used to set -mcpu=970 when CONFIG_ALTIVEC was set because a gcc-3.x bug prevented from using -maltivec along with -mcpu=power4, thus prevented building the RAID6 altivec code. This patch fixes all of this by testing for the gcc version. If 4.0 or later, just normally use -mcpu=power4 and let the RAID6 code add -maltivec to the few files it needs to be compiled with altivec support. For 3.x, we still use -mcpu=970 to work around the above problem, which is fine as 3.x will never implicitly generate altivec code. The Makefile hackery may not be the most lovely, I welcome anybody more skilled than me to improve it.

2005-05-02[PATCH] JFS: Don't allocate extents that overlap existing extentsDave Kleikamp

2005-05-02[PATCH] JFS: Write journal sync points more oftenDave Kleikamp
This patch adds jfs_syncpt, which calls lmLogSync to write sync points to the journal both in jfs_sync_fs and when sync barrier processing completes. lmLogSync accomplishes two things: 1) it pushes logged-but-dirty metadata pages to disk, and 2) it writes a sync record to the journal so that jfs_fsck doesn't need to replay more transactions than is necessary.

2005-05-02[PATCH] JFS: Simplify creation of new iagDave Kleikamp
JFS was creating a new IAG (inode aggregate group) in one address space, and afterwards, accessing it from another. This could lead to complications when cache pages contain more than one page of jfs metadata. This patch causes the IAG to be initialized in the same address space that it is subsequently accessed with. This also elimitates an I/O, but IAG's aren't created too often.

2005-05-02[PATCH] JFS: reduce number of synchronous transactionsDave Kleikamp
Use an inline pxd list rather than an xad list in the xadlock. When the number of extents being modified can fit with the xadlock, a transaction can be committed asynchronously. Using a list of pxd's instead of xad's allows us to fit 4 extents, rather than 2. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-02[PATCH] cpufreq annoying warning fixBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The cpufreq core patch I sent earlier got only half-applied. I added a flag to let the low level driver disable an annoying warning on suspend/resume that is normal on ppc, but the "resume" part of it wasn't applied. This just adds back that missing bit. The original patch also reworked the resume() function to avoid nesting too many if () statements along the way I did the suspend() one, but I didn't include that in the patch below.

2005-05-02[PATCH] ppc32: Fix might_sleep() warning with clock spreadingBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The clock spreading disable/enable code was called to late/early during the suspend/resume code on some laptops and would trigger a might_sleep() warning due to the down() call in the low level i2c code. This fixes it by calling those functions earlier/later when interrupts are still enabled.

2005-05-01[PATCH] ppc32: Workaround a cache flush issue on sleepBenjamin Herrenschmidt
We are experiencing a problem when flushing the CPU caches before sleep on some laptop models using the 750FX CPU rev 1.X. While I haven't been able to figure out a proper explanation for what's going on, I do have a workaround that seem to work reliably and allows those machine to sleep and wakeup properly again. I'll re-update that code if/when I ever find exactly what is happening with those CPU revisions.

2005-05-01[PATCH] DocBook: changes and extensions to the kernel documentationPavel Pisa
I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our university students again. The documentation could be extended for more sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels. I have tried to proceed with that task. I have done that more times from 2.6.0 time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again. Linux kernel compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets. I have added references to some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well. So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are not too much skewed. I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved by kernel convention. Most of the other changes are modifications in the comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do not bail out on errors. Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some #ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc. You can see result of the modified documentation build at http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated documentation. Sources has been added into kernel-api for now. Some more section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick cleanup work.
