[PATCH] ppc64: Make eeh_init function again
My patch "Separate pci bits out of struct device_node" (commit
1635317facea3094ddf34082cd86797efb1d9f7e) had the unfortunate
side-effect that it stopped eeh_init() from working correctly.
It needs the pointers set up by find_and_init_phbs(), but it was being
called just before find_and_init_phbs(). That meant that we didn't
enable EEH (pSeries PCI error recovery) on any devices, and that meant
that on POWER5 systems, the hypervisor wouldn't let us enable memory or
I/O space access to any devices, and their drivers got somewhat
confused.
This fixes it by moving the eeh_init call after find_and_init_phbs.
Tested on a POWER5 partition.

[PATCH] v4l: experimental Sliced VBI API support
Adds all defines, ioctls and structs needed for the sliced VBI API
VBI = Vertical Blank Interval.
It is related with the way TV signals work. It sends a line, then, it has a
retrace time to allow the tube to move electrons to the beginning of the next
line. This was the main reason at the beginning of analog B&W TV.
There is a lot of bandwidth lost on VBI. So, lots of TV systems use it to
send other information such as Closed Captions and Teletext. Also,
broadcasters uses this as a channel to exchange information from the content
producer to their subsidiaries at each city.
There's already a raw VBI interface on V4L2 api, used for Closed Captions and
Teletext. The decoding is doing at userlevel space and it is mostly for
analog TV signals, non encoded.
Encoded signals (MPEG, for example), may need also to transmit other
information (like, for example, display aspect, i.e. 4x3, widescreen...).
Sliced VBI interface is a method to allow the video stream to transmit this
kind of information.

[PATCH] cciss: fix for DMA brokeness
The CCISS driver seems to loose track of DMA mappings created by it's

address created in order to do the unmap.
Instead, they simply try to unmap 0x0. It's easy to see this problem on an
x86_64 system when using the "swiotlb=force" boot option. In this case, the
driver is leaking resources of the swiotlb and not causing a sync of the

[PATCH] set_current_state() commentary
Explain the mysteries of set_current_state().
Quoth Linus:
The scheduler itself never needs the memory barrier at all.
The barrier is needed only if the user itself ends up testing some other
thing afterwards, ie if you have
set_process_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (still_need_to_sleep())
schedule();
then the "still_need_to_sleep()" thing may test flags and wakeup events,
and then you _may_ want to (and often do) make sure that the write of
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is serialized wrt the reads of any wakeup data (since
the wakeup may have happened on another CPU).
So the comment is somewhat wrong. We don't really _care_ whether the state
propagates out to other CPU's since all of our actions are purely local,
and there is nothing we do that is conditional on any other CPU: we're
going to sleep unconditionally, and the scheduler only cares about _our_
state, not about somebody elses state.

[PATCH] open returns ENFILE but creates file anyway
When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file
may be created anyway. This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3
specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not
coded correctly to handle this semantic. The SUS V3 specification
explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function
returns -1.".
The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is
full and no more file structs can be allocated.
This is due to an ordering problem. The entry in the directory is created
before the file struct is allocated. If the allocation for the file struct
fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry
was already created and can not be safely removed.
The solution to this situation is relatively easy. The file struct should
be allocated before the directory entry is created. If the allocation
fails, then the error can be returned directly. If the creation of the
directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.
