[PATCH] I2O: Bugfixes to get I2O working again

2006-06-22T19:16:12+00:00

- Fixed locking of struct i2o_exec_wait in Executive-OSM

- Removed LCT Notify in i2o_exec_probe() which caused freeing memory and
  accessing freed memory during first enumeration of I2O devices

- Added missing locking in i2o_exec_lct_notify()

- removed put_device() of I2O controller in i2o_iop_remove() which caused
  the controller structure get freed to early

- Fixed size of mempool in i2o_iop_alloc()

- Fixed access to freed memory in i2o_msg_get()

[PATCH] scsi_lib.c: properly count the number of pages in scsi_req_map_sg()

2006-06-22T19:16:12+00:00

The calculation of nr_pages in scsi_req_map_sg() doesn't account for
the fact that the first page could have an offset that pushes the end
of the buffer onto a new page.

[PATCH] tmpfs: time granularity fix for [acm]time going backwards

2006-06-22T19:16:12+00:00

I noticed a strange behavior in a tmpfs file system the other day, while
building packages - occasionally, and seemingly at random, make decided to
rebuild a target. However, only on tmpfs.

A file would be created, and if checked, it had a sub-second timestamp.
However, after an utimes related call where sub-seconds should be set, they
were zeroed instead. In the case that a file was created, and utimes(...,NULL)
was used on it in the same second, the timestamp on the file moved backwards.

After some digging, I found that this was being caused by tmpfs not having a
time granularity set, thus inheriting the default 1 second granularity.

Hugh adds: yes, we missed tmpfs when the s_time_gran mods went into 2.6.11.
Unfortunately, the granularity of CURRENT_TIME, often used in filesystems,
does not match the default granularity set by alloc_super.  A few more such
discrepancies have been found, but this is the most important to fix now.

[PATCH] sbp2: fix check of return value of hpsb_allocate_and_register_addrspace

2006-06-05T17:18:15+00:00

I added a failure check in patch "sbp2: variable status FIFO address
(fix login timeout)" --- alas for a wrong error value.  This is a bug
since Linux 2.6.16.  Leads to NULL pointer dereference if the call
failed, and bogus failure handling if call succeeded.

[PATCH] sbp2: backport read_capacity workaround for iPod

2006-06-05T17:18:15+00:00

There is a firmware bug in several Apple iPods which prevents access to
these iPods under certain conditions. The disk size reported by the iPod
is one sector too big. Once access to the end of the disk is attempted,
the iPod becomes inaccessible. This problem has been known for USB iPods
for some time and has recently been discovered to exist with
FireWire/USB combo iPods too.

This patch is derived from the fix in Linux 2.6.17, commit
e9a1c52c7b19d10342226c12f170d7ab644427e2, to be applicable to 2.6.16.x
without prerequisite patches. It hard-wires a workaround for three known
affected model numbers (those of 4th generation iPod, iPod Photo, iPod
mini).

Note: This patch lacks Linux 2.6.17's ability to enable and disable the
workaround via a module parameter.

[PATCH] ipw2200: Filter unsupported channels out in ad-hoc mode

2006-06-05T17:18:14+00:00

Currently iwlist ethX freq[uency]/channel lists all the channels the card
supported for the current region, which includes some channels can only
be used in infrastructure mode. This patch filters these channels out if
the card is currently in ad-hoc mode.

[PATCH] the latest consensus libata resume fix

2006-06-05T17:18:14+00:00

Okay, just to sum things up.

This forces libata to wait for up to 2 seconds for BUSY|DRQ to clear
on resume before continuing.

[jgarzik adds...]  During testing we never saw DRQ asserted, but
nonetheless (a) this works and (b) testing for DRQ won't hurt.
