| Julia Lawall | [PATCH 33/37] Input: drivers/char/keyboard.c - use time_after
The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq
are more robust for comparing jiffies against other values.

The WM97xx touch screen controllers can be used to generate a wakeup
event when the system is suspended. Provide a new core API call
wm97xx_set_suspend_mode() allowing machine drivers to enable this. If no
suspend_mode is provided then the touch panel will be powered down when
the system is suspended.

As well as clarifying the fact that the driver can cope if a second
interrupt occurs before the IRQ work is scheduled this also ensures
that calls to the machine irq_enable() are balanced, making that easier
to implement. Normally this is redundant due to the interrupt disabling
but some unusal board configurations can trigger it.

Hi,
Since it's "Merging Spree" again here goes the first IDE update for 2.6.26:
- couple of fixes and preparatory patches for IDE warm-plug support
- rework of PowerMac media-bay support ([un]register IDE devices instead of
[un]registering IDE interface)
- IDE warm-plug support, to warm-plug devices on a port 'idex':
# echo -n "1" > /sys/class/ide_port/idex/delete_devices
unplug old device(s) and plug new device(s)
#echo -n "1" > /sys/class/ide_port/idex/scan
done!...

For what it's worth I just looked over the changes in netnode.c and
nothing is jumping out at me. The changes ran fine for me when tested
on the later 2.6.25-rcX kernels but I suppose that doesn't mean a whole
lot.
I've got a 4-way x86_64 box but it needs to be installed (which means
I'm not going to be able to do anything useful with it until tomorrow
at the earliest). I'll try it out and see if I can recreate the
problem.

self-tests (git-x86 stuff). Last two lines are:

I will find the config knob to disable that test. Of course, it could be

<did it _have_ to be a macro?>
Doing BUG() inside an NMI should be OK most of the time. But the
BUG-handling code does want to know if we're in interrupt context - at
least for the "fatal exception in interrupt" stuff, and probably other
things.
But afacit the failure to include HARDNMI_MASK in
#define irq_count() (preempt_count() & (HARDIRQ_MASK | SOFTIRQ_MASK))
will prevent that.
So.

isn't this real macro art work ? ;) I kept the same coding style that
was already there, which mimics the irq_enter/irq_exit macros. Changing
You bring an interesting question. In practice, since this BUG_ON could
only happen if we have an NMI nested over another NMI or an nmi which
fails to decrement its HARDNMI_MASK. Given that the HARDIRQ_MASK is
incremented right after the HARDNMI_MASK increment (the reverse is also
true), really bad things (TM) must have happened for the BUG_ON to be

But that's just one site. There might be (now, or in the future) other
code under BUG() which tests in_interrupt().
And most of the places where we test for in_interrupt() and in_irq()
probably want that to return true is we're in NMI too. After all, it's an
Dunno - maybe it just doesn't have it. Maybe it was never the right thing

Therefore trying to push on each context switch can just be wasted effort
since if it failed the first time, it will likely fail any subsequent times
as well. Instead, set a flag when we have successfully pushed as many tasks

Hi all,
My Thinkpad T60p laptop won't boot any recent kernel with nosmp.
I investigated the issue because many people have been complaining
lately that nosmp was breaking their system, and that's unfortunate
because nosmp is a valuable debugging tool.
The actual problem is that the ahci driver fails during probe.
It's essentially the same problem that has been reported here over
3 years ago:

on your system with 6 network interrupts it blows chunks and it's not NAPI that is

system_timer->offset() uses the added timer to return the number of

The function needs more changes. For ex:
2279 if (meta_group_info[j] == NULL) {
2280 printk(KERN_ERR "EXT4-fs: can't allocate buddy mem\n");
2281 i--;
2282 goto err_freebuddy;
2283 }

ext4_mb_init_backend() has a variable i of type ext4_group_t. which is typedefined
in include/linux/ext4_fs_i.h:34 to unsigned long. Since unsigned, i >= 0 is always
true, so fix hot spins after err_freebuddy and err_freemeta.
Also when meta_group_info cannot be allocated prevent a decrement of i when zero.

cs4270_hw_params does several times:

| Steven Rostedt | [PATCH] lockdep: comment hidden releases of graph_lock
While reviewing the lockdep.c code, it looked to me that I found a bug where
the release of the graph_lock was not done on failure. This turns out not
to be the case, because the graph_unlock is performed within the internal
functions of lockdep when a failure occurs.
To help out others when visually reviewing this code, I've added comments
to the places where it looks like it may be a bug not to call graph_unlock.

| Sanjoy Mahajan | remount for commit=600 taking more than 90 min CPU time
[CC'ing ext3 maintainers and, in case it involves io priorities, Jens Axboe]
The report started with <http://bugs.debian.org/471465/>
("laptop-mode-tools: mount takes 100% of CPU after unplugging AC")
The problem first happened when unplugging the AC power a few minutes
after the daily 'locate' cron job started. The 'mount', spawned by the
laptop-mode tools (to remount the / partition with commit=600), took
about 25 minutes to complete!
I can now reproduce the problem without unplugging ...
