Herbert Xu 325ed82393 [NET]: Fix packet timestamping.
I've found the problem in general.  It affects any 64-bit
architecture.  The problem occurs when you change the system time.

Suppose that when you boot your system clock is forward by a day.
This gets recorded down in skb_tv_base.  You then wind the clock back
by a day.  From that point onwards the offset will be negative which
essentially overflows the 32-bit variables they're stored in.

In fact, why don't we just store the real time stamp in those 32-bit
variables? After all, we're not going to overflow for quite a while
yet.

When we do overflow, we'll need a better solution of course.

Ravikiran G Thirumalai ddea7be0ec [PATCH] x86_64: Fix numa node topology detection for srat based x86_64 boxes
2.6.14-rc2 does not assign cpus to proper nodeids on our em64t numa boxen.
Our boxes use acpi srat for parsing the numa information.

srat_detect_node() used phys_proc_id[] to get to the cpu's local apic id,
but phys_proc_id[] represents the cpu<->initial_apic_id mapping.  The
following patch fixes this problem.  Now apicid_to_node[] is properly
indexed with the local apic id.

James Bottomley 51c928c34f [SCSI] Legacy MegaRAID: Fix READ CAPACITY
Some Legacy megaraid cards can't actually cope with the scatter/gather
version of the READ CAPACITY command (which is what we now send them
since altering all SCSI internal I/O to go via the block layer).  Fix
this (and a few other broken megaraid driver assumptions) by sending
the non-sg version of the command if the sg list only has a single

James Bottomley 97af50f60f [SCSI] aic7xxx/aic79xx: fix module removal path not to panic
In these drivers, scsi_remove_host() is called too late, at the point
it is called, the driver has already shut down too far to accept any
I/O that the shutdown might generate.  Any generated I/O actually
triggers a panic.

Fix this by calling scsi_remove_host() as early as possible and not
calling scsi_host_put() until just before we kfree the ahc_softc.

James Bottomley 9e70592fcd [SCSI] fix potential panic with proc on module removal
There's a problem in our host release in that it calls
scsi_proc_hostdir_rm(). However, if you hold a reference to the host as
you remove the module, the host template (which proc uses) will be freed
and the system will panic when the host device is finally released.

Fix this by moving scsi_proc_hostdir_rm() to where it should be: in
scsi_remove_host().

Oleg Nesterov argues (likely correctly) that this test is unnecessary in

it work in the presense of TASK_NONINTERACTIVE.  Waiting for consensus

Ravikiran G Thirumalai 85cc5135ac [PATCH] x86_64 early numa init fix
The tests Alok carried out on Petr's box confirmed that cpu_to_node[BP] is
not setup early enough by numa_init_array due to the x86_64 changes in
2.6.14-rc*, and unfortunately set wrongly by the work around code in
numa_init_array().  cpu_to_node[0] gets set with 1 early and later gets set
properly to 0 during identify_cpu() when all cpus are brought up, but
confusing the numa slab in the process.

Here is a quick fix for this.  The right fix obviously is to have
cpu_to_node[bsp] setup early for numa_init_array().  The following patch
will fix the problem now, and the code can stay on even when
cpu_to_node{BP] gets fixed early correctly.

Thanks to Petr for access to his box.

try to get/return kprobe instruction slot at the same time, the free slot list
might be broken, or a free slot might be applied by 2 threads.

Jody McIntyre abd559b105 [PATCH] sbp2: fix deadlocks and delays on device removal/rmmod
Fixes for deadlocks of the ieee1394 and scsi subsystems and long delays in
futile error recovery attempts when SBP-2 devices are removed or drivers are
unloaded.

 - Complete commands quickly with DID_NO_CONNECT if the 1394 node is gone or if
   the 1394 low-level driver was unloaded.
 - Skip unnecessary work in the eh_abort_handler and eh_device_reset_handler if
   the node or 1394 low-level driver is gone.
 - Let scsi's high-level shut down gracefully when sbp2 is being unloaded or
   detached from the 1394 unit. A call to scsi_remove_device is added for this
   purpose, which requires us to store a scsi_device pointer.
 - scsi_device pointer is obtained from slave_alloc hook and cleared by
   slave_destroy. This avoids usage of the pointer after the scsi device was
   deleted e.g. by the user via scsi_mod's sysfs interface.

Brent Casavant d38e24e260 [PATCH] ioc4_serial: Remove bogus error message
This change removes a bogus error message from the IOC4 serial driver
interrupt handler.

This error message is bogus for two reasons.  First, it can never occur
given that current code takes care to initialize IOC4 in such a way that
these "unknown" interrupts could never occur.  Second, this code fails to
take into account that other drivers can share the IOC4 interrupt mechanism
through SA_SHIRQ, and thus this driver is not in-fact "all-knowing".

Finally, this error message triggers every time some "unknown" interrupt
occurs -- it's not rate limited or repetition limited in any way, thereby
effectively denying use of the console device.  Given its bogosity in the
first place, it's best to just get rid of it entirely.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso daa35edc0a [PATCH] uml: remove empty hostfs_truncate method
Calling truncate() on hostfs spits a kernel warning "Something isn't
implemented here", but it still works fine.

Indeed, hostfs i_op->truncate doesn't do anything.  But hostfs_setattr() ->
set_attr() correctly detects ATTR_SIZE and calls truncate() on the host.  So
we should be safe (using ftruncate() may be better, in case the file is
unlinked on the host, but we aren't sure to have the file open for writing,
and reopening it would cause the same races; plus nobody should expect UML to
be so careful).

So, the warning is wrong, because the current implementation is working.  Al,
am I correct, and can the warning be therefore dropped?

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso bd94805735 [PATCH] uml: revert "run mconsole "sysrq" in process context"
Revert commit 12ebcd73e4, i.e.  [PATCH] uml: run
mconsole "sysrq" in process context on request from Jeff Dike.

a) sysrq may be run when the scheduler is non-functioning

b) the warning I wanted to fix actually came from the fault handler run in
   atomic context.  But I fixed that not to take the semaphore in a separate
   patch.

c) the fault handler is run because of a fault, and that fault was
   unaffected by this patch.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 8923648c12 [PATCH] uml: clear SKAS0/3 flags when running in TT mode
SEGV_MAYBE_FIXABLE tests ptrace_faultinfo, and depends on it being 1 only in
SKAS3 mode, while currently when running with mode=tt it will be 1 anyway.
Fix this, and do the same for proc_mm.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso be662a18b7 [PATCH] uml: fix page faults in SKAS3 mode.
I hadn't been running a SKAS3 host when testing the "uml: fix hang in TT mode
on fault" patch (commit 546fe1cbf9), and I
didn't think enough to the missing trap_no in SKAS3 mode.

In fact, the resulting kernel doesn't work at all in SKAS3 mode.
