Hi Andrew 2.6.27-rc5-mm1.gz seems broken gzip: 2.6.27-rc5-mm1.gz: unexpected end of file The result does not contain drivers/net/wireless/libertas_tf/ gpg sign seems good --
oops, thanks, my net connection fell over at a bad time and I didn't repair all the damage. I just uploaded the 5160786-byte 2.6.27-rc5-mm1.gz - it should be their in a few minutes. --

block: move cmdfilter from gendisk to request_queue
cmd_filter works only for the block layer SG_IO with SCSI block
devices. It breaks scsi/sg.c, bsg, and the block layer SG_IO with SCSI
character devices (such as st). We hit a kernel crash with them.
The problem is that cmd_filter code accesses to gendisk (having struct
blk_scsi_cmd_filter) via inode->i_bdev->bd_disk. It works for only
SCSI block device files. With character device files, inode->i_bdev
leads you to struct cdev. inode->i_bdev->bd_disk->blk_scsi_cmd_filter
isn't safe.
SCSI ULDs don't expose gendisk; they keep it private. bsg needs to be
independent on any protocols. We shouldn't change ULDs to expose their
gendisk.
This patch moves struct blk_scsi_cmd_filter from gendisk to
request_queue, a common object, which eveyone can access to.
The user interface doesn't change; users can change the filters via
/sys/block/. gendisk has a pointer to request_queue so the cmd_filter
code accesses to struct blk_scsi_cmd_filter.

Hmm, I don't think that it does. There's a queue per drive in the old IDE driver, so there should be a 1:1 relation between queues and gendisk -- Jens Axboe --
I think the problem here is due to the usage of kobject_init_and_add().
When we hit the add the second time, the ->state_initalised in the kojb
is still 1. The below should fix it.
The ->state_initalised stuff is a disaster imho, it should be shot and
killed.

remove CONFIG_KMOD from net
Some code here depends on CONFIG_KMOD to not try to load
protocol modules or similar, replace by CONFIG_MODULES
where more than just request_module depends on CONFIG_KMOD
and and also use try_then_request_module in ebtables.

Could you please take care of getting it fixed up?
Thanks.

Hi, I think I like this patch better than Stephen's, but despite causing the Rusty, can you take http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.27-rc5/2= .6.27-rc5-mm1/broken-out/net-fix-compilation-ng-when-config_module.patch (although I'd rather see the blank line stay) and fold it into that patch or put it into the tree that Stephen pulls? johannes

I don't know why the default Malta platform build assumes a MIPS MT core
doing some kind of virtual SMP - otherwise CONFIG_MIPS_MT_FPAFF
wouldn't be set. I'd have thought that one would configure for a basic
MIPS32
or MIPS32R2 single-threaded core like 4KC or 24K. But even assuming the
quirky default, you're right, it ought to build.
Regards,
Kevin K.

On Thu, 4 Sep 2008 22:40:04 -0700 The bnx2 driver has stopped working on 2.6.27-rc5-mm1. Plain 2.6.27-rc5 works. Reversing the bnx2 changes in -mm1 does not fix the issue, so something less obvious is going on. # ifup eth0 Determining IP information for eth0...SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument # ifconfig eth0 up SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument Bringing up the interface fails with -EINVAL.

On Tue, 16 Sep 2008 14:09:17 -0400 OK, with pci=nomsi the system boots up fine and the bnx2 driver works. Looks like the MSI code in linux-next is broken on the Dell PE 1950. -- All rights reversed. --
Sorry for the repost... attaching the patch to the proper thread.
Hi Rik van Riel,
Please try the enclosed patch to see if it will solve your problem.
I have tested on my Dell 2900, and the 5708 LOM is operational again on
my test machine.
Thanks again.

Subject: [PATCH] bnx2: Promote vector field in bnx2_irq structure from u16 to unsigned int
The bnx2 driver stores/uses the irq value from the pci_dev internally.
But when it stores the irq value, it has been performing an
integer demotion. Because of the recent changes made to
arch/x86/kernel/io_apic.c, the new method in creating the irq value
(using build_irq_for_pci_dev()) has exposed this bug on x86 systems.
Because of this demotion when calling request_irq() from
bnx2_request_irq(), the driver would get a return code of -EINVAL.
This is because the kernel could not find the requested irq descriptor.
By storing the irq value properly, the kernel can find the correct
irq descriptor and the bnx2 driver can operate normally.
