  [PATCH] Enable interrupts in faults from VM86 mode
  
  vm86 mode does a copy_to_user from the general protection fault handler
  to update the process' vm86 state.
  
  The problem is that the full GFP handler runs with interrupts off
  currently and that trips the might_sleep() test in copy_to_user().
  
  This happens very often in dosemu and once in a while while the X server
  does its vm86 magic with the VGA bios. 
  
  See
  
  	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1339
  
  for details
  
  This patch fixes this by enabling interrupts when the original code ran
  with interrupts on or ran in vm86 mode (vm86 can clear the IF flag)

  Fix APIC address handling at bootup and restore.
  
  Don't assume the APIC is at the power-on default address,
  since the BIOS can have moved it somewhere else without
  really ever telling us (ie we have an MP table or ACPI
  that fixes it for us, but those are not always available)

  [PATCH] update to microcode update driver
  
  This contains the following changes:
  
  a) changes from Intel to support the new microcode data format
     (backward compatible of course)
  
  b) changes from me to remove the no longer needed features of the driver,
     namely we don't need to keep a copy of applied microcode in kernel
     memory.
  
     This feature was hardly useful in the days of regular devfs
     /dev/cpu/microcode file and now it is completely useless so I removed
     it (after taking into account all the feedback on linux-kernel I
     received since the announcement of the intention to do this)
  
  These are rather critical because otherwise we can't really say Linux
  fully supports the very latest Intel cpus (which require microcode in
  the new format).

  [PATCH] USB: Conflicting definitions in keyspan driver
  
  There's a small issue with drivers/usb/serial/keyspan_usa90msg.h
  
  The definition for MSR_RI conflicts with some PowerPC CPU definition
  (MSR is the Machine State Register on PPC and processor.h defines
  MSR_RI globally). This definition doesn't seem to be used in any .c
  in drivers/usr/serial though, so I beleive it could be easily renamed
  to something a bit less prone to conflict ;) Changing the PPC definition
  would be a lot nastier.

  [PATCH] hang on ZEROCOPY/TSO when hitting no-Tx-resources
  
  * Critical bug fix: under heavy Tx stress using ZEROCOPY or TSO, if we
    ran out of Tx descriptors, we didn't calculate for the context
    descritor used as the first of the ZEROCOPY/TSO send, nor do we clean
    up the context desriptor bits in the case where the send isn't going
    to fit, where we need to undo the mappings.  This bug was introduced
    with the 5.2.16 patch set which included a workaround for a hang
    on 82544 over PCI-X.  This workaround cause the check for no-Tx-
    rosource logic to change, and this bug slipped in.

  [PATCH] Fix pcnet_cs network hotplug
  
  pcnet_cs registers the network device too early.  The effect of this
  is that the networking hotplug scripts are unable to bring the device
  up automatically.
  
  There are two issues:
  - we were registering the net device before we finished setting up
    the device (eg, reading the MAC address.)
  - we were using DEV_CONFIG_PENDING to block the net device "open"
    callback, and as we know the other methods may be called prior
    to open.
  
  My only concern with this patch is that we set info->node.dev_name
  after we register the net device, so use of cardctl during the
  hotplug scripts may give unexpected results.  However, I am not
  aware of anyone using cardctl to read the device name in network
  hotplug scripts.
  
  Please review and merge.  Thanks.

  [PATCH] USB: ohci-hcd PM fixes
  
  This patch primarily fixes PM-related bugs in the OHCI driver.
  
  It gets rid of some flags that duplicated state between usbcore
  and the HCD.  The duplication wasn't correct, and wasn't tested
  correctly ... this fixes both issues.  So now the driver avoids
  writing to hardware when it's suspended (as required by older
  PowerBook hardware) or halted, and treats all non-running states
  the same (as required by all hardware).
  
  This includes the last generic parts of a patch sent a while back
  by Benjamin Herrenschmidt, which weren't at that time testable on a
  x86 kernel because the generic PM code was in flux (and broken).
  There may still be some PMAC-specific issues to resolve.
  
  With this patch, and a device_resume() deadlock fix, I've seen
  OHCI suspend/resume work on hardware it's not worked on since the
  PM changes started to merge into the 2.6.0-test kernels.

  [PATCH] USB: ehci-hcd, misc bugfixes
  
  This fixes some bugs observed in the EHCI code:
  
    - Byte-order confusion caused the wrong address to be set
      on big-endian hardware (reported last week on PPC and
      SPARC).   That bug's been there for about a year, with
      no problem reports ... hmm.
  
    - Used the wrong bitmask to determine max packet size
      for interrupt transfers, so they were limited to 1023
      bytes (not 1024 bytes) at high speed.
  
    - Because those two problems related to the masking,
      I sanity checked it and moved more of byteswapping
      to compile time.
  
    - Removes some oopsing in the (debug) periodic schedule
      dump, seen with patches that add more interesting
      behaviors (which folk are finally trying...).
  
    - Removed some now-pointless <linux/version.h> usage

  [PATCH] SMP races in the timer code
  
  This fixes two del_timer_sync() races that are still in the timer code. 
  
  The first race was actually triggered in a 2.4 backport of the 2.6 timer
  code.  The second race was never triggered - it is mostly theoretical on
  a standalone kernel.  (It's more likely in any virtualized or otherwise
  preemptable environment.)
  
  Both races happen when self-rearming timers are used.  One mainstream
  example is kernel/itimer.c.  The effect of the races is that
  del_timer_sync() lets a timer running instead of synchronizing with it,
  causing logic bugs (and crashes) in the affected kernel code.  One
  typical incarnation of the race is a double add_timer(). 
  
  race #1:
  
  this code in __run_timers() is running on CPU0:
  
                          list_del(&timer->entry);
                          timer->base = NULL;
  			[*]
                          set_running_timer(base, timer);
                          spin_unlock_irq(&base->lock);
  			[**]
                          fn(data);
                          spin_lock_irq(&base->lock);
  
  CPU0 gets stuck at the [*] code-point briefly - after the timer->base has
  been set to NULL, but before the base->running_timer pointer has been set
  up. This is a fundamentally volatile scenario, as there's _zero_ knowledge
  in the data structures that this timer is about to be executed!
  
  Now CPU1 comes along and calls del_timer_sync(). It will find nothing -
  neither timer->base nor base->running_timer will cause it to synchronize.  
  It will return and report that the timer has been deleted - shortly
  afterwards CPU1 continues to execute the timer fn, which will cause
  crashes.
  
  This particular race is easy to fix by reordering the timer->base
  clearing with set_running_timer(), and putting a wmb() between them, but
  there's more races:
  
  race #2
  
  The checking of del_timer_sync() for 'pending or running timer' is
  fundamentally unrobust. Eg. if CPU0 gets stuck at the [***] point below:
  
                  base = &per_cpu(tvec_bases, i);
                  if (base->running_timer == timer) {
                          while (base->running_timer == timer) {
                                  cpu_relax();
                                  preempt_check_resched();
                          }
  			[***]
                          break;
                  }
          }
          smp_rmb();
          if (timer_pending(timer))
                  goto del_again;
  
  
  then del_timer_sync() has already decided that this timer is not running
  (we just finished loop-waiting for it), but we have not done the
  timer_pending() check yet.
  
  If the timer has re-armed itself, and if the timer expires on CPU1 (this
  needs a long delay on CPU0 but that's not hard to achieve eg.  in UML or
  with kernel preemption enabled), then CPU1 could start to expire the
  timer and gets to the [**] point in __run_timers (see above), then CPU1
  gets stalled and CPU0 is unstalled, then the timer_pending() check in
  del_timer_sync() will not notice the running timer, and del_timer_sync()
  returns - while CPU1 is just about to run the timer!
  
  Fixing this second race is hard - it involves a heavy race-check
  operation that has to lock all bases, and has to re-check the
  base->running_timer value, and timer_pending condition atomically.
  
  This fix also fixes the first race, due to forcing del_timer_sync() to
  always observe the timer state atomically, so the [*] code point will
  always synchronize with del_timer_sync(). 
  
  The patch is ugly but safe, and it has fixed the crashes in the 2.4
  backport.  I tested the patch on 2.6.0-test7 with some heavy itimer use
  and it works fine.  Removing self-arming timers safely is the sole
  purpose of del_timer_sync(), so there's no way around this overhead i
  think.  I believe we should ultimately fix all major del_timer_sync()
  users to not use self-arming timers - having del_timer_sync() in the
  thread-exit path is now a considerable source of SMP overhead.  But this
  is out of the scope of current 2.6 fixes of course, and we have to
  support self-arming timers as well.

  [PATCH] Prefetch workaround for Athlon/Opteron
  
  This is the latest iteration of the workaround for the Athlon/Opteron
  prefetch erratum.  Sometimes the CPU would incorrectly report an
  exception on prefetch.
  
  This supercedes the previous dumb workaround of checking for AMD CPUs in
  prefetch().  That one bloated the kernel by several KB and lead to lots
  of unnecessary checks in hot paths. 
  
  Also this one handles user space faults too, so the kernel can
  effectively isolte the user space from caring about this errata.
  
  Instead it handles it in the slow path of the exception handler (the
  check is only done when the kernel would normally trigger seg fault or
  crash anyways)
  
  All the serious criticisms to the previous patches have been addressed. 
  It checks segment bases now, handles vm86 mode and avoids deadlocks when
  the prefetch exception happened inside mmap_sem.
  
  This includes review and fixes from Jamie Lokier and Andrew Morton.
  Opcode decoder based on code from Richard Brunner.

  [PATCH] USB: Fix USB suspend in 2.6.0-test6
  
  In drivers/usb/core/hcd-pci.c, the code forgets to set hcd->state to
  USB_STATE_SUSPENDED on suspend.  The effect is that on resume, the
  code refuses to wake the HCD up, and instead prints a message saying
  the interface hasn't been suspended.
  
  The patch below fixes this.  It is against 2.6.0-test6.  With this
  patch I can suspend and resume my Apple PowerBook G4, and the USB
  works after resuming.

  [PATCH] USB: minor net2280 cleanup
  
  This holds minor net2280 cleanups:
  
    - Cleaner handling for cases where dma_alloc_coherent() must be
      used instead of kmalloc().  (Kmalloc is more memory-efficient
      for the "small buffers" case.)   Both MIPS cases should work,
      as well as others.
  
    - Prefetch cachelines on PIO paths.
  
  The first of those gets rid of one <linux/version.h> usage, no
  longer useful now that 2.4 and 2.6 versions have forked.

  [PATCH] ftape linkage error
  
  Since 2.6.0-test6, ftape can't be configured as a built-in driver.
  test6 changed ftape-init.c to call ftape_proc_destroy() also in
  the non-MODULE case; however, ftape_proc_destroy() is only defined
  when the driver is built as a module. The result is a linkage error.
  
  This fixes this by deleting the #if MODULE around ftape_proc_destroy()'s
  definition.

  [PATCH] More barriers in module code.
  
  Paul McKenney convinced me that there's no *guarantee* that all archs
  will refuse the speculate the atomic ops above the state test, eg:
  
  CPU0 (stopref_set_state)		CPU1 (stopref)
  
   atomic_set(&ack, 0);			if (state == XXX)
   wmb();						atomic_inc(&ack);
   state = XXX;
  
  Certainly Alpha needs a rmb() inside stopref to guarantee it sees
  the same ordering.

  [PATCH] ipt_limit fix for HZ=1000
  
  The range that the iptables limit extension can specify depends on HZ.
  This means that rules which worked i386 2.4 (100 HZ) won't work on
  2.6.
  
  The solution is to adjust the precision based on the HZ value (keeping
  the range of possible values the same).  For extra geek cred, this is
  done by calculating a power-of-two constant below the maximum
  multiplication factor, which gcc then turns into a simple shift.

  At the moment the aty128fb and matroxfb frame buffer drivers don't

  patch is the minimum change to fix the problems.
  
  The _IOR() type problem fix in aty128fb.c depends on the fact that the
  size of a pointer is the same as "size_t", so we don't have to use
  _IOR_BAD() to keep the ioctl number the same.

  [PATCH] futex bug fixes
  
  This fixes two serious bugs in the futex code.
  
  One is a race condition which results in list corruption when
  FUTEX_REQUEUE is used.  It is due to the split locks change introduced
  in 2.6.0-test6, and oopses when triggered.
  
  The other is a security hole.  A program can use FUTEX_FD to create
  futexes on mms or inodes which don't reference them, and when those
  structures are reused by a different mm or inode, the addresses match.
  The effect is that a malicious or flawed program can steal wakeups from
  completely unrelated tasks, causing them to block (or worse if they are
  counting on the token passing property).
  
  These are the specific changes:
  
      1. Each futex_q retains a reference to its key mm or inode.
  
      2. The condition for a futex_q to indicate that it's woken can usually
         be interrogated lock-free.
  
      3. futex_wait calls the hash function once instead of three times,
         and usually takes the per-bucket lock once too.
  
      4. When a futex is woken, the per-bucket lock is not usually taken,
         so that's one less cache line transfer during heavy SMP futex use.
  
      5. The wait condition and barriers in futex_wait are simpler.
  
      5. FUTEX_REQUEUE is fixed.  The per-bucket lock juggling is done
         in such a way that there are no race conditions against the tests
         for whether a futex is woken.
  
  
  This patch is an combination of patches previously sent to the list.  An
  equivalent patch has been in Andrew Morton's tree for a while, with no
  failure reports.  Also I have been running it on my own SMP box for a
  while.  Conversely, we have received an oops report for the 2.6.0-test6
  code, so the fix is needed.

  [PATCH] set sigio target to current->pid and only if not already set
  
  1. send_sigio() sends to a specific thread, _not_ a process.
     (It can also send to a process group, but that's not relevant here).
     This is useful, and should stay as it is.
  
     Therefore it makes _no sense_ to call f_setown() with current->tgid.
     Presently the kernel is inconsistent about it, with some places using
     current->pid and some others using current->tgid.
  
     This patch changes f_setown() calls to use current->pid.
  
  2. In some places, f_setown() is called not at the user's direct request,
     but as a side effect of another function.  Specifically: dnotify and
     file leases.
  
     It is good to allow a program the flexibility to specify a different
     pid than the default, using F_SETOWN.  Presently they can do this after
     the dnotify or lease call, but there is a small time window when it
     will be temporarily set to current->tgid (which as pointed out above,
     is not always right).
  
     The window is avoidable if the program can use F_SETOWN prior to the
     dnotify or lease call.  This is exactly what the "force" argument to
     f_setown() is for, and this patch changes it to zero in those callers.
  
     This change is not likely to affect any existing programs.

  [PATCH] ia64: sys_ia32.c fix for epoll
  
  I ran into some bugs testing epoll in ia32-emulation mode on ia64.
  The attached patch fixes the problems and is well tested.
  Here is a summary of the changes:
  
  Changes to sys32_epoll_ctl() and sys32_epoll_wait():
  - changed epoll_event32.data to an array (this is subjective, but seems
  to make the code more readable)
  
  Changes to sys32_epoll_wait():
  - added call to __get_free_pages if kmalloc(epoll_event array) fails.  This
    provides needed scalability and fixes the -ENOMEM failure during
  epoll-pipetest.
  - deleted copy-in of epoll_event array since this is not a user-inputsyscall
  - changed to check numevents > 0 as indicator of success on call to
    sys_epoll_wait.
  - changed to loop on numevents not maxevents when copying out to userspace.

  [PATCH] APIC fixes for x86-64
  
  Various APIC/ACPI fixes for x86-64. This brings us closer to working
  out of the box on the now popular VIA and NVidia Nforce3 based Athlon64
  and Opteron boards. To be really good we would need more ACPI changes
  (still waiting for that to be all merged through the usual channels).
  
  With this we mostly work with acpi=off at least.
  
  Also it syncs us up with bugfixes done in 2.4.
  
   - Disable IO-APIC by default on non SMP VIA/NVidia boards.  This is a
     bit of a hack, but needed to work around ACPI bugs.  Can be
     overwriten with "apic". 
   - Add acpi=ht, meaning run ACPI boot setup, but do not enable the
     interpreter.  Same as i386.
   - Stop MADT parsing early when local APIC or IO-APIC are disabled
   - Add more option parsing early enough to actually change the boot
     process
   - Update documentation for command line options
