2009-04-11Input: remove unnecessary synchronize_rcu() callArjan van de Ven
There is no need to issue serialize_rcu() after adding a new handle to the list of handles associated with the device because new events will "see" the new handle in the list immediately. Remove it so we can boot a little bit faster. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>
2009-04-11Input: i8042 - add a DMI table for the i8042.reset optionArjan van de Ven
There are several DMI tables in the i8042 (keyboard) driver already, but not one for the i8042.reset option. This patch adds such an option. Two users for this table are added as well, the MSI Wind U-100 and the LG X110. The MSI Wind also needs to be in the "don't trust the pnp data" for the touchpad to work on my machine.

2009-04-11Input: i8042 - introduce a tougher resetArjan van de Ven
Some touchpads don't reset right the first time (MSI Wind U-100 for example). This patch will retry the reset up to 5 times. In addition, on x86, we don't fail entire i8042 initialization if controller reset fails in hope that keyboard port will still be functional and user will still get a working keyboard. This is especially important on netbooks. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

2009-04-10intel-iommu: Avoid panic() for DRHD at address zero.David Woodhouse
If the BIOS does something obviously stupid, like claiming that the registers for the IOMMU are at physical address zero, then print a nasty message and abort, rather than trying to set up the IOMMU and then later panicking. It's becoming more and more obvious that trusting this stuff to the BIOS was a mistake. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>
2009-04-11ACPI video: handle indexed _BQC correctlyZhang Rui
In the current code, for a box with an indexed _BQC method, we 1. get the current brightness level by evaluating _BQC 2. set the value gotten in step 1 to _BCM 3. get the current brightness level again 4. set the _BQC_use_index flag if the results gotten in step 1 and in step 3 don't equal. But this logic doesn't work actually, because the _BQC_use_index is not set when acpi_video_device_lcd_set_level is invoked. This results in a failure in step 2. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12249#c83 Now, we set the _BQC_use_index flag after invoking _BQC for the first time. And reevaluate the _BQC to get the correct brightness level. Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2009-04-11ACPI: button: remove control method/fixed hardware distinctionsBjorn Helgaas
This patch removes the driver distinction between control method (CM) and fixed hardware (FF) buttons. We previously needed that so we could install either a fixed event handler or a notify handler, but the Linux/ACPI code now handles that for us, so we don't need to worry about it. Note that this removes the FF/CM annotation from the "info" files in /proc. For example, /proc/acpi/button/PWRF/info: -type: Power Button (FF) +type: Power Button I don't think there's anything meaningful user-space can do by knowing whether a button is a control method or a fixed hardware button, so nobody should be looking at the FF/CM.

2009-04-09dm kcopyd: fix callback raceMikulas Patocka
If the thread calling dm_kcopyd_copy is delayed due to scheduling inside split_job/segment_complete and the subjobs complete before the loop in split_job completes, the kcopyd callback could be invoked from the thread that called dm_kcopyd_copy instead of the kcopyd workqueue. dm_kcopyd_copy -> split_job -> segment_complete -> job->fn() Snapshots depend on the fact that callbacks are called from the singlethreaded kcopyd workqueue and expect that there is no racing between individual callbacks. The racing between callbacks can lead to corruption of exception store and it can also mean that exception store callbacks are called twice for the same exception - a likely reason for crashes reported inside pending_complete() / remove_exception(). This patch fixes two problems: 1. job->fn being called from the thread that submitted the job (see above). - Fix: hand over the completion callback to the kcopyd thread. 2. job->fn(read_err, write_err, job->context); in segment_complete reports the error of the last subjob, not the union of all errors. - Fix: pass job->write_err to the callback to report all error bits (it is done already in run_complete_job) Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

2009-04-09dm: implement basic barrier supportMikulas Patocka
Barriers are submitted to a worker thread that issues them in-order. The thread is modified so that when it sees a barrier request it waits for all pending IO before the request then submits the barrier and waits for it. (We must wait, otherwise it could be intermixed with following requests.) Errors from the barrier request are recorded in a per-device barrier_error variable. There may be only one barrier request in progress at once. For now, the barrier request is converted to a non-barrier request when sending it to the underlying device. This patch guarantees correct barrier behavior if the underlying device doesn't perform write-back caching. The same requirement existed before barriers were supported in dm. Bottom layer barrier support (sending barriers by target drivers) and handling devices with write-back caches will be done in further patches.

2009-04-09dm: remove dm_request loopMikulas Patocka
Remove queue_io return value and a loop in dm_request. IO may be submitted to a worker thread with queue_io(). queue_io() sets DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD so that all further IO is queued for the thread. When the thread finishes its work, it clears DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD and from this point on, requests are submitted from dm_request again. This will be used for processing barriers. Remove the loop in dm_request. queue_io() can submit I/Os to the worker thread even if DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD was not set.
