I have just fixed it up so it applies without fuzz to\nupstream kernels.\n\nOriginal patch and description from Shyam kumar Iyer:\n\nThe issue [ibft module not displaying targets with short names] is because\nof an offset calculatation error in the iscsi_ibft.c code. Due to this\nerror directory structure for the target in /sys/firmware/ibft does not\nget created and so the initiator is unable to connect to the target.\n\nNote that this bug surfaced only with an name that had a short section at\nthe end. eg: \"iqn.1984-05.com.dell:dell\". It did not surface when the\niqn\u0027s had a longer section at the end. eg:\n\"iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.disk2.sys1.xyz\"\n\nSo, the eot_offset was calculated such that an extra 48 bytes i.e. the\nsize of the ibft_header which has already been accounted was subtracted\ntwice.\n\nThis was not evident with longer iqn names because they would overshoot\nthe total ibft length more than 48 bytes and thus would escape the bug.\n\nSigned-off-by: Shyam Kumar Iyer \u003cshyam_iyer@dell.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Mike Christie \u003cmichaelc@cs.wisc.edu\u003e\nCc: Konrad Rzeszutek

cpumask_of_cpu\n with new cpumask_of_cpu_ptr macros. These are patterned after the\n node_to_cpumask_ptr macros.\n\n In general terms, if there is a cpumask_of_cpu_map[] then a pointer to\n the cpumask_of_cpu_map[cpu] entry is used. The cpumask_of_cpu_map\n is provided when there is a large NR_CPUS count, reducing\n greatly the amount of code generated and stack space used for\n cpumask_of_cpu(). The pointer to the cpumask_t value is needed for\n calling set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to reduce the amount of stack space\n needed to pass the cpumask_t value.\n\n If there isn\u0027t a cpumask_of_cpu_map[], then a temporary variable is\n declared and filled in with value from cpumask_of_cpu(cpu) as well as\n a pointer variable pointing to this temporary variable. Afterwards,\n the pointer is used to reference the cpumask value. The compiler\n will optimize out the extra dereference through the pointer as well\n as the stack space used for the pointer, resulting in identical code.\n\n A good example of the orthogonal usages is in net/sunrpc/svc.c:\n\n\tcase SVC_POOL_PERCPU:\n\t{\n\t\tunsigned int cpu \u003d m-\u003epool_to[pidx];\n\t\tcpumask_of_cpu_ptr(cpumask, cpu);\n\n\t\t*oldmask \u003d current-\u003ecpus_allowed;\n\t\tset_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, cpumask);\n\t\treturn 1;\n\t}\n\tcase SVC_POOL_PERNODE:\n\t{\n\t\tunsigned int node \u003d m-\u003epool_to[pidx];\n\t\tnode_to_cpumask_ptr(nodecpumask, node);\n\n\t\t*oldmask \u003d current-\u003ecpus_allowed;\n\t\tset_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, nodecpumask);\n\t\treturn 1;\n\t}\n\nSigned-off-by: Mike Travis \u003ctravis@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "751851af7aae9b8bd5a60b3897209081fbc18b2b", "tree": "5cb8dbb71d691a760da61e319796800ee42cc1c5", "parents": [ "a41eebab7537890409ea9dfe0fcda9b5fbdb090d", "d71792ac3d48df6693f7b339e02494efc27036c3" ], "author": { "name": "David Woodhouse", "email": "David.Woodhouse@intel.com", "time": "Mon Jul 14 15:49:04 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "David Woodhouse", "email": "David.Woodhouse@intel.com", "time": "Mon Jul 14 15:51:11 2008 -0700" }, "message": "Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git\n\nConflicts:\n\n\tsound/pci/Kconfig\n" }, { "commit": "c6c1c94e8225c833d4c175622f8c2e70c7347a7d", "tree": "d6a6bcaed658f3a6cf49943297482341a302ec7a", "parents": [ "b82a82d0a90af74847ae3e873a241dedf3786fd5" ], "author": { "name": "Greg Kroah-Hartman", "email": "gregkh@suse.de", "time": "Thu May 29 10:05:08 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "David Woodhouse", "email": "David.Woodhouse@intel.com", "time": "Thu Jul 10 14:26:42 2008 +0100" }, "message": "dell_rbu: firmware data is const\n\nSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman \u003cgregkh@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David Woodhouse \u003cdwmw2@infradead.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "69ac9cd629ca96e59f34eb4ccd12d00b2c8276a7", "tree": "e9bb108c5ec36c666d64a52ca35ccf0197c84306", "parents": [ "6247943d8ab699b57653afd453a4940cca70ef8a" ], "author": { "name": "Bernhard Walle", "email": "bwalle@suse.de", "time": "Fri Jun 27 13:12:54 2008 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Tue Jul 08 17:55:41 2008 +0200" }, "message": "sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmap\n\nThis patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS\n(or Firmware) provided memory map.

This patch does away with all that, and uses udev to\nautomatically load matching drivers on the right machines.\n\nBasically the patch just exports the DMI information that has been\nparsed by the kernel anyway to userspace via a sysfs device\n/sys/class/dmi/id and makes sure that proper modalias attributes are\navailable. Besides adding the \"modalias\" attribute it also adds\nattributes for a few other DMI fields which might be useful for\nwriting udev rules.\n\nThis patch is not an attempt to export the entire DMI/SMBIOS data to\nuserspace. We already have \"dmidecode\" which parses the complete DMI\ninfo from userspace. The purpose of this patch is machine model\nidentification and good udev integration.\n\nTo take advantage of DMI based module autoloading, a driver should\nexport one or more MODULE_ALIAS fields similar to these:\n\nMODULE_ALIAS(\"dmi:*:svnMICRO-STARINT\u0027LCO.,LTD:pnMS-1013:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT\u0027LCO.,LTD:ct10:*\");\nMODULE_ALIAS(\"dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1058:pvr0581:rvnMSI:rnMS-1058:*:ct10:*\");\nMODULE_ALIAS(\"dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1412:*:rvnMSI:rnMS-1412:*:cvnMICRO-STARINT\u0027LCO.,LTD:ct10:*\");\nMODULE_ALIAS(\"dmi:*:svnNOTEBOOK:pnSAM2000:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT\u0027LCO.,LTD:ct10:*\");\n\nThese lines are specific to my msi-laptop.c driver. They are basically\njust a concatenation of a few carefully selected DMI fields with all\npotentially bad characters stripped.\n\nBesides laptop drivers, modules like \"hdaps\", the i2c modules\nand the hwmon modules are good candidates for \"dmi:\" MODULE_ALIAS\nlines.\n\nBesides merely exporting the DMI data via sysfs the patch adds\nsupport for a few more DMI fields. Especially the CHASSIS fields are\nvery useful to identify different laptop modules. The patch also adds\nworking MODULE_ALIAS lines to my msi-laptop.c driver.\n\nI\u0027d like to thank Kay Sievers for helping me to clean up this patch\nfor posting it on lkml.\n\nPatch is against Linus\u0027 current GIT HEAD. Should probably apply to\nolder kernels as well without modification.\n\n\nSigned-off-by: Lennart Poettering \u003cmzxreary@0pointer.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Kay Sievers \u003ckay.sievers@vrfy.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman \u003cgregkh@suse.de\u003e\n\n\n\n" }, { "commit": "823bccfc4002296ba88c3ad0f049e1abd8108d30", "tree": "5338ae0b32409446af4cd00c5107d9405d5bf0b6", "parents": [ "2609e7b9bebfd433254c02538ba803dc516ff674" ], "author": { "name": "Greg Kroah-Hartman", "email": "gregkh@suse.de", "time": "Fri Apr 13 13:15:19 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Greg Kroah-Hartman", "email": "gregkh@suse.de", "time": "Wed May 02 18:57:59 2007 -0700" }, "message": "remove \"struct subsystem\" as it is no longer needed\n\nWe need to work on cleaning up the relationship between kobjects, ksets and\nktypes.

There is no\nprotection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the\nchain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread:\n\n http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d113018709002036\u0026w\u003d2\n\nWe noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage\nclasses:\n\n\t\"Blocking\" chains are always called from a process context\n\tand the callout routines are allowed to sleep;\n\n\t\"Atomic\" chains can be called from an atomic context and\n\tthe callout routines are not allowed to sleep.\n\nWe decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore\nthis set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking\nnotifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for \"raw\" notifiers (which is\nreally just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are\nused for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for\nregistration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are\nexplained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in\nkernel/sys.c.\n\nWith atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain\nlinks will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by\nentries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no\nguarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The\nidea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and\nblocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to\nhandle these things in their own way.)\n\nThere are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For\natomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in\na process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a\ncallout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister\nentries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code\nhad to be changed to avoid it.)\n\nSince atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use\nspinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost\nentirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much\nless frequent that calling a chain.\n\nHere is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None\nof them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.\n\n ATOMIC CHAINS\n -------------\narch/i386/kernel/traps.c:\t\ti386die_chain\narch/ia64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tia64die_chain\narch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:\t\tpowerpc_die_chain\narch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tsparc64die_chain\narch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tdie_chain\ndrivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:\txaction_notifier_list\nkernel/panic.c:\t\t\t\tpanic_notifier_list\nkernel/profile.c:\t\t\ttask_free_notifier\nnet/bluetooth/hci_core.c:\t\thci_notifier\nnet/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:\tip_conntrack_chain\nnet/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:\tip_conntrack_expect_chain\nnet/ipv6/addrconf.c:\t\t\tinet6addr_chain\nnet/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:\tnf_conntrack_chain\nnet/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:\tnf_conntrack_expect_chain\nnet/netlink/af_netlink.c:\t\tnetlink_chain\n\n BLOCKING CHAINS\n ---------------\narch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:\tpSeries_reconfig_chain\narch/s390/kernel/process.c:\t\tidle_chain\narch/x86_64/kernel/process.c\t\tidle_notifier\ndrivers/base/memory.c:\t\t\tmemory_chain\ndrivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c\t\tcpufreq_policy_notifier_list\ndrivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c\t\tcpufreq_transition_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/adb.c:\t\tadb_client_list\ndrivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c\t\tsleep_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c\t\tsleep_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c\twf_client_list\ndrivers/usb/core/notify.c\t\tusb_notifier_list\ndrivers/video/fbmem.c\t\t\tfb_notifier_list\nkernel/cpu.c\t\t\t\tcpu_chain\nkernel/module.c\t\t\t\tmodule_notify_list\nkernel/profile.c\t\t\tmunmap_notifier\nkernel/profile.c\t\t\ttask_exit_notifier\nkernel/sys.c\t\t\t\treboot_notifier_list\nnet/core/dev.c\t\t\t\tnetdev_chain\nnet/decnet/dn_dev.c:\t\t\tdnaddr_chain\nnet/ipv4/devinet.c:\t\t\tinetaddr_chain\n\nIt\u0027s possible that some of these classifications are wrong.

If there is no user action happening the load average\ngoes up as the thread D state is taken in to account. Also after\ndownloading the BIOS image the enrties go away momentarily but they are\nrecreated from the callback function in dell_rbu. This causes the thread\nto get recreated causing the load average to permenently stay around 1.\n\nFix:\n\nThe dell_rbu also creates the entry\n/sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/image_type at driver load time. The image\ntype by default is mono if required the user can echo packet to image_type\nto make the BIOS update mechanism using packets. Also by echoing init in\nto image_type the /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu entries can be created.\n\nThe driver code was changed to not create /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu\nentries during load time, and also to not create the above entries from the\ncallback function. The entries are only created by echoing init to\n/sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/image_type The user now needs to create the\nentries to download the image monolithic or packet. This fixes the issue\nsince the kernel thread only is created when ever the user is ready to\ndownload the BIOS image; this minimizes the life span of the kernel thread\nand the load average goes back to normal.\n\nSigned off by Abhay Salunke \u003cabhay_salunke@dell.com\u003e\n\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "c59ede7b78db329949d9cdcd7064e22d357560ef", "tree": "f9dc9d464fdad5bfd464d983e77c1af031389dda", "parents": [ "e16885c5ad624a6efe1b1bf764e075d75f65a788" ], "author": { "name": "Randy.Dunlap", "email": "rdunlap@xenotime.net", "time": "Wed Jan 11 12:17:46 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Wed Jan 11 18:42:13 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] move capable() to capability.h\n\n- Move capable() from sched.h to capability.h;\n\n- Use \u003clinux/capability.h\u003e where capable() is used\n\t(in include/, block/, ipc/, kernel/, a few drivers/,\n\tmm/, security/, \u0026 sound/;\n\tmany more drivers/ to go)\n\nSigned-off-by: Randy Dunlap \u003crdunlap@xenotime.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "5ad9201be7f7d52d712fe3c3e841fdc19216ede1", "tree": "fb30c1771b05177c73e207c70bf325a71366aa39", "parents": [ "c4aa02eb3939c5004782454434e4d50de471b53d" ], "author": { "name": "Al Viro", "email": "viro@ftp.linux.org.uk", "time": "Thu Dec 15 09:18:00 2005 +0000" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Thu Dec 15 10:04:30 2005 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] dell_rbu: NULL noise removal\n\nSigned-off-by: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "6c52f1377d9cc4bedec5d4e1e3b22756b8978399", "tree": "ac765f9841be4364237ef1012969e4da28a4ef41", "parents": [ "79e448bf2d71d52d28c99be4faff9cc51928f90b" ], "author": { "name": "Dave Jones", "email": "davej@redhat.com", "time": "Mon Nov 21 21:32:30 2005 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Tue Nov 22 09:13:44 2005 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] dell_rbu driver depends on x86[64]\n\nThis driver only appears on IA32 \u0026 EM64T boxes.\n\nSigned-off-by: Dave Jones \u003cdavej@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "733482e445ca4450cf41381b1c95e2b8c7145114", "tree": "d31a2fdaeb8e439fc348a781c780a035d794266d", "parents": [ "c1a0f5e3c01d28b6782457bee5ae5ace3a9958ec" ], "author": { "name": "Olaf Hering", "email": "olh@suse.de", "time": "Tue Nov 08 21:34:55 2005 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Wed Nov 09 07:55:57 2005 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] changing CONFIG_LOCALVERSION rebuilds too much, for no good reason\n\nThis patch removes almost all inclusions of linux/version.h.
