Use GFP_NOFS flag when allocating memory on I/O path, because otherwise
we may deadlock the filesystem which works on top of us. We observed
the deadlocks with UBIFS. Example:
VFS->FS lock a lock->UBI->kmalloc()->VFS writeback->FS locks the same
lock again.

I can't find anything guaranteeing that 'ubi_num' cannot be <0 in
drivers/mtd/ubi/kapi.c::ubi_open_volume(), and in fact the code
even tests for that and errors out if so. Unfortunately the test
for "ubi_num < 0" happens after we've already used 'ubi_num' as
an array index - bad thing to do if it is negative.
This patch moves the test earlier in the function and then moves
the indexing using that variable after the check. A bit safer :-)

All the users go through virt_irq_to_bucket() and essentially
want to go from a virt_irq to an INO, but we have a way
to do that already via virt_to_real_irq_table[].dev_ino.

virt_irq_to_bucket().

We were simply concatenating the devhandle and devino and using that
as the cookie, which defeats the entire purpose of the VIRQ hypervisor
interfaces.
Now that we use physical addresses for the INO buckets, we can
allocate them dynamically for VIRQs and encode the cookies as
~__pa(bucket). This allows us to test for and decode the cookie with
a simple:
brlz $reg1, 1f
xnor $reg1, %g0, $reg2
sequence.
This works because bit 64 is never set in traditional
INO vectors, and it is also never set in a physical
address. So xnor'ing the physical address of the bucket
always gives us a negative number, and thus a unique
condition we can test cheaply.
Inspired by ideas from Greg Onufer.

Currently we chain IVEC entries using 32-bit "pointers"
because we know that the ivector_table is in the main

This uses proper 64-bit pointers instead.
Whilst this bloats up the kernel image size, this sets
the infrastructure necessary to significantly shrink the

This also makes us use the MSI queues correctly.
Each MSI queue is serviced by a normal sun4u/sun4v INO interrupt
handler. This handler runs the MSI queue and dispatches the
virtual interrupts indicated by arriving MSIs in that MSI queue.
All of the common logic is placed in pci_msi.c, with callbacks to
handle the PCI controller specific aspects of the operations.
This common infrastructure will make it much easier to add MSG
support.

Thanks to Tom Callaway for the excellent bug report and

sys_ipc() has several problems, most to due with semaphore

2) "union semun" is passed in a register on 64-bit compared

by reference

The bank switching code assumes that the bank selector is set to 0

the same bug as was fixed in the w83627ehf driver two months ago:

In practice, this bug was causing the sensor thermal types to be
improperly reported for my W83627THF the first time I was loading the
w83627hf driver. From the driver history, I'd say that it has been
broken since September 2005 (when we stopped resetting the chip by

This patch is to add an abort function that will bring back the MCP51/55
controller if it was blocked by a block-read operation, in particular.
(When a slave sends a wrong byte count on a byte read, the host gets
locked up). I've only tested it on an MCP51 and MCP55. However, I'm
almost certain it will also work on MCP65, I just did not have the board
to test it on. Thus for now the abort function will only be called
if an MCP51/55 was detected.

Fix a "mis-used register" problem on the AMD MIPS Alchemy au1550

In summary, the programmable serial controller seems to hang the kernel
when I send a single 'address' byte on the I2C bus. The patch
essentially uses the PSC_SMBSTAT register's TE (transmit FIFO empty)
bit to check when the transmit FIFO is empty, instead of using the
PSC_SMBEVNT register's TU (transmit underflow) bit. Using the TE bit
fixed the hang problem.
