[PATCH] Char: isicom, fix close bug

2006-11-19T03:28:05+00:00

port is dereferenced even if it is NULL.  Dereference it _after_ the
check if (!port)...  Thanks Eric  for reporting this.

This fixes

[PATCH] ipmi_si_intf.c sets bad class_mask with PCI_DEVICE_CLASS

2006-11-19T03:28:01+00:00

Taken from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7439

It looks like device registration in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c was
cleaned up and a small error was made when setting the class_mask.  The fix
is simple as the correct mask value is defined in the code but is not used.

[PATCH] fix Intel RNG detection

2006-11-04T01:33:49+00:00

Previously, since determination whether there was an Intel random number
generator was based on a single bit, on systems with a matching bridge
device but without a firmware hub, there was a 50% chance that the code
would incorrectly decide that the system had an RNG.  This patch adds
detection of the firmware hub to better qualify the existence of an RNG.

There is one issue with the patch: I was unable to determine the LPC
equivalent for the PCI bridge 8086:2430 (since the old code didn't care
about which of the many devices provided by the ICH/ESB it was chose to use
the PCI bridge device, but the FWH settings live in the LPC device, so the
device list needed to be changed).

[PATCH] Watchdog: sc1200wdt - fix missing pnp_unregister_driver()

2006-11-04T01:33:48+00:00

[WATCHDOG] sc1200wdt.c pnp unregister fix.

If no devices found or invalid parameter is specified,
scl200wdt_pnp_driver is left unregistered.
It breaks global list of pnp drivers.

[PATCH] IPMI: fix handling of OEM flags

2006-09-16T19:54:31+00:00

If one of the OEM flags becomes set in the flags from the hardware, the
driver could hang if no OEM handler was set.  Fix the code to handle this.
This was tested by setting the flags by hand after they were fetched.

[PATCH] IPMI: Fix oops on ipmi_msghandler removal for non ipmi systems

2006-09-16T19:54:30+00:00

When the ipmi_si module is loaded on a system without any ipmi device, it
fails with nodev.  It would be fine if all resources were freed.  A call to
device_unregister() is missing, resulting to a oops when you remove the
ipmi_msghandler.

[PATCH] IPMI: fix occasional oops on module unload

2006-09-01T18:39:09+00:00

Olaf Kirch of SuSE tracked down a problem where module unloads of the IPMI
driver would occasionally result in Oopses.  He tracked that down to a
variable that wasn't always initialized properly in some situations.  This
patch initializes that variable.  Olaf sent a patch that kzalloc-ed the
data, but this structure is large enough that I would perfer to not do
that.  Thanks Olaf!
