Fix a bug where setting the low fan speed limits will not work if no
data was ever read through the sysfs interface and the fan clock
dividers have not been explicitely set yet either. The reason is that
data->fan_div[nr] may currently be used before it is initialized from
the chip register values. The fix is to explicitely initialize
data->fan_div[nr] before using it.
Bug reported, and fix tested, by Nicolas Mailhot.

This patch creates a file airo.h containing prototypes of the global
functions in airo.c used by airo_cs.c .
If you got strange problems with either airo_cs devices or in any other
completely unrelated part of the kernel shortly or long after a airo_cs
device was detected by the kernel, this might have been caused by the
fact that caller and callee disagreed regarding the size of the first

This fixes a problem with some cdc acm devices that were not getting

If qla2x00_probe_one()'s call to qla2x00_iospace_config() fails, we call
qla2x00_free_device() to clean up. But because ha->dpc_pid hasn't been set
yet, qla2x00_free_device() tries to stop a kernel thread which hasn't started
yet. It does wait_for_completion() against an uninitialised completion struct
and the kernel hangs up.
Fix it by initialising ha->dpc_pid a bit earlier.

The main problem fixes is that in certain situations stopping md arrays may
take longer than you expect, or may require multiple attempts. This would
only happen when resync/recovery is happening.
This patch fixes three vaguely related bugs.
1/ The recent change to use kthreads got the setting of the
process name wrong. This fixes it.
2/ The recent change to use kthreads lost the ability for
md threads to be signalled with SIG_KILL. This restores that.
3/ There is a long standing bug in that if:
- An array needs recovery (onto a hot-spare) and
- The recovery is being blocked because some other array being
recovered shares a physical device and
- The recovery thread is killed with SIG_KILL
Then the recovery will appear to have completed with no IO being
done, which can cause data corruption.
This patch makes sure that incomplete recovery will be treated as
incomplete.
Note that any kernel affected by bug 2 will not suffer the problem of bug
3, as the signal can never be delivered. Thus the current 2.6.14-rc
kernels are not susceptible to data corruption. Note also that if arrays
are shutdown (with "mdadm -S" or "raidstop") then the problem doesn't
occur. It only happens if a SIGKILL is independently delivered as done by
'init' when shutting down.

Changes all spinlocks that can be held during an irq handler to disable

In raw1394.c:handle_iso_listen(), don't grab host_info_lock at all -- we're
not accessing host_info_list or host_count, and holding this lock while
trying to tasklet_kill the iso tasklet this can cause an ABBA deadlock if
ohci:dma_rcv_tasklet is running and tries to grab host_info_lock in

Reported by: Bob Tracy <rct@gherkin.frus.com>
"...I've got a Toshiba notebook (730XCDT -- Pentium 150MMX) for which
I'm using the Vesa FB driver. When the machine has been idle for some
time and the driver attempts to powerdown the display, rather than the
display going blank, it goes gray with several strange lines. When I
hit the "shift" key or other-wise wake up the display, the old video
state is not fully restored..."
vesafb recently added a blank method which has only 2 states, powerup and
powerdown. The powerdown state is used for all blanking levels, but in his
case, powerdown does not work correctly for higher levels of display
powersaving. Thus, for intermediate power levels, use software blanking,
and use only hardware blanking for an explicit powerdown.

During the development of an USB device I found a bug in the handling of
Highspeed HID devices in the kernel.
What happened?
Highspeed HID devices are correctly recognized and enumerated by the
kernel. But even if usbhid kernel module is loaded, no HID reports are
received by the kernel.
The output of the hardware USB analyzer told me that the host doesn't
even poll for interrupt IN transfers (even the "interrupt in" USB
transfer are polled by the host).
After some debugging in hid-core.c I've found the reason.
In case of a highspeed device, the endpoint interval is re-calculated in
driver/usb/input/hid-core.c:
line 1669:
/* handle potential highspeed HID correctly */
interval = endpoint->bInterval;
if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
interval = 1 << (interval - 1);
Basically this calculation is correct (refer to USB 2.0 spec, 9.6.6).
This new calculated value of "interval" is used as input for
usb_fill_int_urb:
line 1685:
usb_fill_int_urb(hid->urbin, dev, pipe, hid->inbuf, 0,
hid_irq_in, hid, interval);
Unfortunately the same calculation as above is done a second time in
usb_fill_int_urb in the file include/linux/usb.h:
line 933:
if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
urb->interval = 1 << (interval - 1);
else
urb->interval = interval;
This means, that if the endpoint descriptor (of a high speed device)
specifies e.g. bInterval = 7, the urb->interval gets the value:
hid-core.c: interval = 1 << (7-1) = 0x40 = 64
urb->interval = 1 << (interval -1) = 1 << (63) = integer overflow
Because of this the value of urb->interval is sometimes negative and is
rejected in core/urb.c:
line 353:
/* too small? */
if (urb->interval <= 0)
return -EINVAL;
The conclusion is, that the recalculaton of the interval (which is
necessary for highspeed) should not be made twice, because this is
simply wrong. ;-)
Re-calculation in usb_fill_int_urb makes more sense, because it is the
most general approach. So it would make sense to remove it from
hid-core.c.
Because in hid-core.c the interval variable is only used for calling
usb_fill_int_urb, it is no problem to remove the highspeed
re-calculation in this file.

Increased use of scatter-gather by usb-storage driver after 2.6.13 has
exposed a buggy codepath in isp116x-hcd, which was probably never
visited before: bug happened only for those urbs, for which
URB_SHORT_NOT_OK was set AND short transfer occurred.
The fix attached was tested in 2 ways: (a) it fixed failing
initialization of a flash drive with an embedded hub; (b) the fix was
tested with 'usbtest' against a modified g_zero driver (on top of
net2280), which generated short bulk IN transfers of various lengths
including multiples and non-multiples of max_packet_length.

values that we've had in CVS for a while (and that, for some reason, never
ended up in the kernel... must've gotten lost). Those fix a ~16 pixels
noise at the top of the picture in at least SECAM, although (now that I
think about it) PAL was probably affected, also.

Fix bug 5441.
I didn't know about messy programs like svgatextmode... Couldn't this be
integrated in some linux/drivers/video/console/svgacon.c ?... So because
of the existence of the svgatextmode program, the kernel is not supposed to
touch to CRT_OVERFLOW/SYNC_END/DISP/DISP_END/OFFSET ?
Disabling the check in vgacon_resize() might help indeed, but I'm really
not sure whether it will work for any chipset: in my patch, CRT registers
are set at each console switch, since stty rows/cols apply to consoles
separately...
The attached solution is to keep the test, but if it fails, we assume that
the caller knows what it does (i.e. it is svgatextmode) and then disable
any further call to vgacon_doresize. Svgatextmode is usually used to
_expand_ the display, not to shrink it. And it is harmless in the case of
a too big stty rows/cols: the display will just be cropped. I tested it on
my laptop, and it works fine with svgatextmode.
A better solution would be that svgatextmode explicitely tells the kernel
not to care about video timing, but for this an interface needs be defined
and svgatextmode be patched.

When a request is deferred in scsi_init_io because the sg table could not
be allocated, the associated scsi_cmnd is not released and the request is
not marked with REQ_DONTPREP. When the command is retried, if
scsi_prep_fn decides to kill it then the scsi_cmnd will never be released.
This patch (as573) changes scsi_init_io so that it calls scsi_put_command
before deferring a request.

Juan was kind enough to linger on site, and work on a production
machine, to try the parameter to make the system stable. He discovered
that reducing the maximum transfer size issued to the adapter to 128KB
stabilized his system. This is related to an earlier change for the
2.6.13 tree resulting from Martin Drab's testing where the transfer size
was reduced from 4G to 256KB; we needed to go still further in scaling
back the request size.
Here is the patch that tames this regression.
