2008-04-24arm/mach-integrator/time.c, mwave: revert portions of recent irq cleanupsJeff Garzik
The recent irq cleanups for arch/arm/mach-integrator/time.c and drivers/char/mwave/tp3780i.c changed the request_irq() dev_id parameter, but neglected to change the matching free_irq() parameter, thus creating a bug upon irq de-registration. Given that the impetus for the changes is not yet accepted upstream, it is best to revert the irq cleanups. Mostly. A comment is added to time.c to reduce future confusion, of type that led to my time.c cleanup in the first place. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-04-19PM: Remove destroy_suspended_device()Rafael J. Wysocki
After 2.6.24 there was a plan to make the PM core acquire all device semaphores during a suspend/hibernation to protect itself from concurrent operations involving device objects. That proved to be too heavy-handed and we found a better way to achieve the goal, but before it happened, we had introduced the functions device_pm_schedule_removal() and destroy_suspended_device() to allow drivers to "safely" destroy a suspended device and we had adapted some drivers to use them. Now that these functions are no longer necessary, it seems reasonable to remove them and modify their users to use the normal device unregistration instead. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-04-17[S390] hw_random: allow rng_dev_read() to return hardware errors.Ralph Wuerthner
The api for hardware random number generators is currently limited to devices that never fail. If the hardware is registered as a source for random numbers it has to work. This prevents the use of i/o based random number devices where the i/o might fail. Add a check for errors after the read from a hardware random number device.

It appears that in some cases, the sync word might not be recognized by the hardware correctly. If this happens, then attempting to read from the port results in an unrecoverable error because of the design of the FPGA core. This patch updates the code to check the status of the device before reading the IDCODE, in order to avoid entering this unrecoverable state. This patch also adds additional NOOP commands into the sychronization sequence, which appears to be necessary to avoid the condition on some hardware.

2008-03-24hw_random doc updatesDavid Brownell
Update documentation for the hw_random support to be current: - Documentation/hw_random.txt has been updated to reflect the current code: it's a framework now, a "core" with a small sysfs interface, that hardware-specific drivers plug in to. Text specific to Intel hardware is now at the end. - Kconfig now references the Documentation/hw_random.txt file and better explains what this really does. Both chunks of documentation now higlight the fact that the kernel entropy pool is maintained by "rngd", and this driver has nothing directly to do with that important task.

2008-03-17drm: Fix race that can lockup the kernelMike Isely
The i915_vblank_swap() function schedules an automatic buffer swap upon receipt of the vertical sync interrupt. Such an operation is lengthy so it can't be allowed to happen in normal interrupt context, thus the DRM implements this by scheduling the work in a kernel softirq-scheduled tasklet. In order for the buffer swap to work safely, the DRM's central lock must be taken, via a call to drm_lock_take() located in drivers/char/drm/drm_irq.c within the function drm_locked_tasklet_func(). The lock-taking logic uses a non-interrupt-blocking spinlock to implement the manipulations needed to take the lock. This semantic would be safe if all attempts to use the spinlock only happen from process context. However this buffer swap happens from softirq context which is really a form of interrupt context. Thus we have an unsafe situation, in that drm_locked_tasklet_func() can block on a spinlock already taken by a thread in process context which will never get scheduled again because of the blocked softirq tasklet. This wedges the kernel hard. To trigger this bug, run a dual-head cloned mode configuration which uses the i915 drm, then execute an opengl application which synchronizes buffer swaps against the vertical sync interrupt. In my testing, a lockup always results after running anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour and a half. I believe dual-head is needed to really trigger the problem because then the vertical sync interrupt handling is no longer predictable (due to being interrupt-sourced from two different heads running at different speeds). This raises the probability of the tasklet trying to run while the userspace DRI is doing things to the GPU (and manipulating the DRM lock). The fix is to change the relevant spinlock semantics to be the interrupt-blocking form. After this change I am no longer able to trigger the lockup; the longest test run so far was 20 hours (test stopped after that point). Note: I have examined the places where this spinlock is being employed; all are reasonably short bounded sequences and should be suitable for interrupts being blocked without impacting overall kernel interrupt response latency.

In riscom8_init_module, rc_board should be indexed by i, not by 0, otherwise the loop is useless.

2008-03-10nozomi: fix initialization and early flow control accessFrank Seidel
Due to some flaws in the initialization and flow control code kernel oopses could be triggered e.g. when accessing the card too early after insertion. See e.g. kernel.org bug #10077. The main part of the fix is a trivial state management making sure the card is realy ready to use before allowing any access.

2008-03-07drivers/char/esp.c: fix bootup lockupIngo Molnar
randconfig testing found a bootup lockup in drivers/char/esp.c because of a spinlock that wasn't correctly initialized. I'm not sure why it became more prominent in 2.6.25-rc4, the bug seems rather old and i've been doing allyesconfig bootups for ages with CONFIG_ESP enabled. This fixes this bootup lockup: PM: Adding info for No Bus:ttyP63 ttyP32 at 0x0240 (irq = 0) is an ESP primary port BUG: spinlock lockup on CPU#0, swapper/1, f56dd004 Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.25-rc4-sched-devel.git-x86-latest.git #402 [<c03ac6f4>] _raw_spin_lock+0x134/0x140 [<c08649be>] _spin_lock_irqsave+0x5e/0x80 [<c0b9fbfe>] ? espserial_init+0x2be/0x6e0 [<c0b9fbfe>] espserial_init+0x2be/0x6e0 [<c0b877a3>] kernel_init+0x83/0x260 [<c0b9f940>] ? espserial_init+0x0/0x6e0 [<c010416a>] ? restore_nocheck_notrace+0x0/0xe [<c0b87720>] ? kernel_init+0x0/0x260 [<c0b87720>] ? kernel_init+0x0/0x260 [<c0104507>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 ======================= kzalloc() is not the way to initialize spinlocks anymore.
