  [PATCH] IrDA kernel log buster
  
  	Hi Marcelo,
  
  	I just ran 2.4.23, and after a few min the disk reached 100%
  capacity. A quick check lead to to oversized kernel log, and to the
  following changeset :
  
  http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.4/cset@1.1136.23.2?nav=index.html|ChangeSet@-12w
  
  	Patch to fix this problem is attached below, I've just
  backported the proper fixes from 2.5.X into 2.4.X.
  	Probably this person did too much Python, but in C you need
  braces around multiple statements part of the same branch, so the
  second printf was always executed even when logging was disabled. I
  also don't understand why this person didn't decided to backport the
  2.5.X fix.
  	I'm also bit surprised that this kind of patch went into the
  kernel behind my back, because I though that freeze meant not
  accepting untested patch from random hacker.
  
  	Have fun...
  
  	Jean

  Yes. You have two inodes placed in the same buffer.
  
  Process 1 modifies inode 1 and calls fsync on it. fsync initiates write of
  the block. ll_rw_block returns, write is in progress.
  
  Process 2 modifies inode 2 and calls fsync on it. Filesystem calls
  ll_rw_block write on the same buffer. ll_rw_block immediatelly returns,
  because it sees there is already IO on the buffer (there used to be
  something like if (buffer_locked(bh)) return;). Process 2 waits on buffer.
  
  The write finished. Both processes are waken up. Both processes return out
  of fsync function. Process 2 returns from fsync while it did not write its
  inode modification to disk --- it waited on process 1's write.

  out_of_memory()'s operational variables are not locked, and can be
  reset by multiple cpus simultaneously, causing false OOM kills.
  
  This patch adds an oom_lock to out_of_memory() to protect its operational
  variables.

  CONFIG_X86_TSC be the devil. Personally, I'd much prefer dropping the
  compile time option and using dynamic detection. Something like (not
  recently tested and i believe against 2.5.something, but you get the

  [PATCH] fix reboot/no_idt bug
  
  When compiling 2.4.23 with gcc-3.3.2, gcc generates the
  following warning for arch/i386/kernel/process.c:
  
  process.c: In function `machine_restart':
  process.c:427: warning: use of memory input without lvalue in asm operand 0 is deprecated
  
  The warning identifies a real bug. no_idt is passed to
  lidt with an "m" constraint, which requires an l-value.
  Since no_idt is faked as an array, gcc creates an anonymous
  variable pointing to no_idt and passes that to lidt(*),
  so at runtime lidt sees the wrong address. Not good.
  (The bug, while real, is unlikely to trigger since it
  sits in an infrequently used path in the reboot code.)
  
  The fix is to make no_idt a struct (and thus an l-lvalue)
  like the other gdt/idt descriptors.
  
  This patch is a backport of the fix Linus made for the
  same bug in 2.6.0-test4.
  
  [Andi: x86-64 appears to have the same bug]
  
  (*) Verified by inspection of the assembly code.

  [PATCH] Make readahead last page of file
  
  hi marcelo-
  
  i posted this a while back on fsdevel for comments, but never heard
  anything.  i'd like this patch to be included in 2.4.24, as it improves
  NFS client read performance by a significant margin, and doesn't appear to
  have any negative impact (see fsdevel archives for benchmarks).  this is
  against 2.4.23.
  
  generic_file_readahead never reads the last page of a file.  this means
  the last page is always read synchronously by do_generic_file_read.
  normally this is not an issue, as most local disk reads are fast.
  however, this means that the NFS client is never given the opportunity to
  coalesce the last page of a file, which must be read in a separate
  synchronous read operation.
  
  this is especially honerous if the network round trip time is long, and/or
  the workload consists of reading many uncached small files.
  
  i also explored changing the way that generic_file_readahead computes the
  index of the last page of the file.  the fix below appears to be the best
  solution.

  [PATCH] ac97_plugin_ad1980 fixes
  
  Hi,
  
  I have a MSI875P Neo motherboard which includes an AD1980 codec.
  I tried to use ac97_plugin_ad1980 as a module, but it failed to load because of a GPL issue. I had to add a MODULE_LICENSE("GPL") to make it work.
  Also, I had to force the ADI compatibility mode to have the switch input/ouput working.
  Now, it's working perfectly.
  Here is the diff -u with kernel version 2.4.23

  Update the MIPS network drivers.  These are all changes to MIPS specific
  drivers. This patch removes the meth driver for

  gt64240eth driver supports the integrated ethernet interface of the
  Galileo GT-64240 system controller.

  [PATCH] fix some DRM43 warnings
  
  [Resend. Was ignored for 2.4.23-pre :-(]
  
  This patch fixes three sources of warnings in the new 4.3 DRM code:
  - drm_os_linux.h has a #warning on broken list_entry usage.
    The patch backports a fix from the 2.6 code.
  - radeon_drv.h has a #warning PCI posting bug.
    The #warning refers to an obsolete and unused macro.
    Simply remove it. It's also gone from the 2.6 code.
  - drm_agpsupport.h generates a gcc warning on an assignment
    used as a truth value.
    The patch backports a fix from the 2.6 code.
  
  These changes are well-tested: they have been in 2.6 for ages,
  and I've been running them in 2.4.23-pre/rc for months.
  Please apply.

  [PATCH] Make root a special case for per-user process limits.
  
  This is needed because when a setuid-root program calls
  setuid(0) to become really-root, p->user becomes root_user,
  but ->rlim stays as the original user's limit, and now
  the process cannot fork - becuase root has more processes than
  the original user had.
  
  The real problem is that NPROC is not really a per-process limit,
  but its a per-user limit, and including it with the rlim structure
  was not a good idea :-(
  
  This fix is already in 2.6

  [NETFILTER]: Fix expectation evict order
  
  This patch fixes the order in which expectations are evicted when a helper
  specifies IP_CT_HELPER_F_REUSE_EXPECT.  Prior to that patch, each new
  expectation is added at the beginning of the masters sibling list.  When
  max_expected is reached, the first non-established one on the list is reused
  (which gave LIFO behaviour).
  
  The patch
  - adds new expectations at the end of the masters sibling list
  - uses list_for_each_entry for finding the oldes one
  - changes nat core to walk backwards throuth the sibling list when calling
    nat helpers

  [NETFILTER]: Fix various issues with the amanda conntrack+NAT helpers
  
  ip_conntrack_amanda:
  - udp checksum checked even if not set
  - memory not validated to be inside packet at all or validated like
    this: if (*data and data < data_limit)
  - would create expectation with port 0 which makes nat-helper throw away
    packet (which makes exploiting the race-condition trivial even on UP)
  - expectation had no mask.src.* set so connections were accepted from
    anywhere
  - helper_unregister called after failed helper_register
  
  ip_nat_amanda:
  - drops packet if amanda_data_fixup fails without clearing the offset
    field in the expectation which is used as a flag to indicate that the
    current packet needs mangling. Problem arises from the fact that the
    conntrack helper creates multiple expectations at once and even if it
    clears the offset field for the current expectation the following
    expectations will not have it cleared and will mangle the next packet
    they see.
  - same unregister after failed register problem

  [NETFILTER]: Do not flush MASQ if IP did not change.
  
  Herve Eychenne noted that many ADSL connections get the same

  drop connections when the interface comes up, and then only if the
  interface address has actually changed.

  [PATCH] MIPS char driver update

  Indys.  New RTC driver for the Dallas DS1742 which is used on the RBTX4927.
  Misc fixes and updates to the dz.c driver; disabled debugging code in dz.c.
  Change rtc.c which really should get a different name because surprise not
  everybody in the world uses the same RTC chip to support memory mapped
  RTC chips properly.  This is needed for Digital's DECstations.
