Reduce the nr. of pointer dereferences in fs/jffs2/summary.c Benefits: - micro speed optimization due to fewer pointer derefs - generated code is slightly smaller - better readability (The first two sound like a compiler problem but I'll go with the third. dwmw2). Signed-off-by:

Oops. Stupid StudlyCaps. Again. This driver is doubly-deprecated because is was subsumed into doc2000.c and _also_ we want people to start using the new NAND wrapper for these devices anyway. But ISTR there was still one person using it because something didn't work for them. Must chase that up and then I can kill this. Signed-off-by:

After dwmw2 let me know it ought to be done, I rewrote the physmap map driver to be a platform driver. I know zilch about the driver model, so I probably botched it in some way, but I've done some tests on an ixp23xx board which uses physmap, and it all seems to work. In order to not break existing physmap users, I've added some compat code that will instantiate a platform device iff CONFIG_MTD_PHYSMAP_LEN is defined and != 0. Also, I've changed the default value for CONFIG_MTD_PHYSMAP_LEN to zero, so that people who inadvertently compile in physmap (or new, platform-style, users of physmap) don't get burned. This works pretty well -- the new physmap driver is a drop-in replacement for the old one, and works on said ixp23xx board without any code changes needed. (This should hold as long as users don't touch 'physmap_map' directly.) Once all physmap users have been converted to instantiate their own platform devices, the compat code can go. (Or we decide that we can change all the in-tree users at the same time, and never merge the compat code.) Signed-off-by:

Fixes Rhine I cards disclosing fragments of previously transmitted frames in new transmissions. Before transmission, any socket buffer (skb) shorter than the ethernet minimum length of 60 bytes was zero-padded. On Rhine I cards the data can later be copied into an aligned transmission buffer without copying this padding. This resulted in the transmission of the frame with the extra bytes beyond the provided content leaking the previous contents of this buffer on to the network. Now zero-padding is repeated in the local aligned buffer if one is used. Following a suggestion from the via-rhine maintainer, no attempt is made here to avoid the duplicated effort of padding the skb if it is known that an aligned buffer will definitely be used. This is to make the change "obviously correct" and allow it to be applied to a stable kernel if necessary. There is no change to the flow of control and the changes are only to the Rhine I code path. The patch has run on an in-service Rhine-I host without incident. Frames shorter than 60 bytes are now correctly zero-padded when captured on a separate host. I see no unusual stats reported by ifconfig, and no unusual log messages. Signed-off-by:

Currently we rely on the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU flag being set correctly to know whether we need to fiddle with page LRU state after stealing it, however for some origins we just don't know if the page is on the LRU list or not.

When iptables userspace adds an ipt_standard_target, it calculates the size of the entire entry as: sizeof(struct ipt_entry) + XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target)) ipt_standard_target looks like this: struct xt_standard_target { struct xt_entry_target target; int verdict; }; xt_entry_target contains a pointer, so when compiled for 64 bit the structure gets an extra 4 byte of padding at the end. On 32 bit architectures where iptables aligns to 8 byte it will also have 4 byte padding at the end because it is only 36 bytes large. The compat_ipt_standard_fn in the kernel adjusts the offsets by sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target) - sizeof(struct compat_ipt_standard_target), which will always result in 4, even if the structure from userspace was already padded to a multiple of 8. On x86 this works out by accident because userspace only aligns to 4, on all other architectures this is broken and causes incorrect adjustments to the size and following offsets. Thanks to Linus for lots of debugging help and testing. Signed-off-by: -

The PC Speaker driver's ->probe() routine doesn't even get called in the 64-bit kernels. The reason for that is that the arch code apparently has to explictly add a "pcspkr" platform device in order for the driver core to call the ->probe() routine. arch/i386/kernel/setup.c unconditionally adds a "pcspkr" device, but the x86_64 kernel has no code at all related to the PC Speaker. The patch below copies the relevant code from i386 to x86_64, which makes the PC Speaker work for me on x86_64. Cc: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor_core@ameritech.net> Acked-by:

Based on an older patch from Mike Kravetz <kravetz@us.ibm.com> We need to have a mem_map for high addresses in order to make fops->no_page work on spufs mem and register files. So far, we have used the memory_present() function during early bootup, but that did not work when CONFIG_NUMA was enabled. We now use the __add_pages() function to add the mem_map when loading the spufs module, which is a lot nicer. Signed-off-by:

Currently we check PageDirty() in order to make the decision to swap out the page. However, the dirty information may be only be contained in the ptes pointing to the page. We need to first unmap the ptes before checking for PageDirty(). If unmap is successful then the page count of the page will also be decreased so that pageout() works properly. This is a fix necessary for 2.6.17. Without this fix we may migrate dirty pages for filesystems without migration functions. Filesystems may keep pointers to dirty pages. Migration of dirty pages can result in the filesystem keeping pointers to freed pages. Unmapping is currently not be separated out from removing all the references to a page and moving the mapping. Therefore try_to_unmap will be called again in migrate_page() if the writeout is successful. However, it wont do anything since the ptes are already removed. The coming updates to the page migration code will restructure the code so that this is no longer necessary. Signed-off-by:
