Did you see this one?  I could have sworn I sent via crypto stuff, but

Does this include the changes to all those PCMCIA net drivers which
Jeff has had for a while from me?

I'd like to get those patches into mainline so I can close bugme bug
1711, but I think Jeff's waiting for responses from the individual
net driver maintainers first. ;(

Nope, was just waiting for 2.6.2 to be released.  The first post-262 
batch has been merged, am now sending the second batch.  Yours is in the

Nikita's vm-dont-rotate-active-list.patch still has this:

+/* dummy pages used to scan active lists */
+static struct page scan_pages[MAX_NUMNODES][MAX_NR_ZONES];
+

Which probably needs its nodes and cachelines untangled.
Maybe it doesn't - I really don't know.

Andrew, do you know if this acpi pull down has nforce support fixed? Or 
perhaps it's even unnotified to the acpi team?

Thanks!

Still doesn't boot on my nForce 2 system, hangs while probing PDC RAID card. 
Confirmed from 2.6.2-rc3-mm1 that it was likely related to ACPI changes, but 
reverting bk-acpi.patch makes no difference.

I'd like to test mainline, but I'm using gcc 3.4 snapshot, so I'll try later 
today with 2.6.2 + linus.patch.

Ohboy. ;-)

Just for general elucidation: this tree now touches 1854 files, or
slightly more than ten percent of the kernel source, with roughly 3500
changes, packaged in 1500 Bitkeeper changes and/or individual patches.

Feel free to draw unwarranted conclusions from these numbers....

Same here, hangs probing hpt366 ide controller. After some time says:

boots ok with pci=noacpi

The idle toad's way is to shove it in the pgdat.
Maybe even the zone structure?

It logically belongs in the zone structure, but apparently
dependancies will not allow that right now.

It doesn't appear that way.

I do not know.  Sending them a bugzilla ID would help, if such a thing exists.

Nice.  This patch contains some AIO/DIO race fixes.

The nit warnings that sprung up in the defconfig builds are...

Andrew, does 2.6.2-mm1 have that big ieee1394 patch, or is this the same
as stock 2.6.2?

Hmm..that defeats the purpose of making it generic. :(

I was able to build w/o PCI for an SA1100 platform, so I'm assuming 
this is an x86 issue.  I'll dig into it when I get some free time.
I only have x86 and arm toolchains, so can folks on other non-PCI
architectures remove the dmapool-needs-pci.patch and try building 
w/o PCI.

I agree.  I think the comment was that UML didn't build properly, but I
really don't see what the error would be.

Could the original submitter of this patch please send us the error
messages that this patch is supposed to fix?

2.6.2-mm1 has no ieee1394 patch - it's the same as 2.6.2, apart from some
tweaks to eth1394.c from Jeff.

(It was _supposed_ to have the big patch, but I mucked up somewhere and
lost it)

This fix doesn't work for me because I get problems if I disable ACPI IRQ 
routing and still have apic enabled. Normally these problems would be 
gracefully solved, but my USB HCD complains about not having been assigned an 
IRQ.

This ACPI problem is definitely present in mainline, so this is a regression 
at least on my nForce 2.

If this is helpful, in 2.6.2-rc1-mm1 I would see:

..MPBIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC.

This error seemed to be harmless and made no difference to the kernel while 
booting. It's been like that since latter 2.5 kernels, so that's quite a long 
time. The board is an EPoX 8RDA+ in case this is a vendor bug.

Now, instead, I see (in 2.6.2 and 2.6.2-mm1):

IOAPIC[0]: Invalid reference to IRQ 0

Later my kernel hangs when detecting hde, as described in another thread.
pci=noacpi allows me to get to init, but it breaks my USB HCD.

Andrew,

I tested 2.6.2-mm1 on an 8-proc running 6 copies of the read_under
test and all 6 read_under tests saw uninitialized data in less than 5
minutes. :(

Daniel,

Same here... Just FYI, I am running with your original patch and
not failed so far (2 hours..) Normally, I see the problem in 15 min or so.

Thanks,

The performance implications of synchronising behind kjournald writes for
normal non-blocking writeback are bad.  Can you detail what you now think
is the failure mechanism?

Done.

For future reference - don't anybody else try to send patches as vi

I think the problem is that any block_write_full_page(WB_SYNC_NONE)
that hits a page that has a buffer in process of being written will
get PageWriteback cleared even though the i/o has not completed.
(The buffer will be locked, but buffer_dirty() is cleared, so
 __block_write_full_page() will SetPageWriteback(); unlock_page();
 see no buffer were submitted and call end_page_writeback())

Any subsequent filemap_write_and_wait() or filemap_fdatawrite() /
filemap_fdatawait will never wait for that i/o.  So this could
potentially be a problem for more than just DIO.

BTW: 2.4 __block_write_full_page() always did a lock_buffer(), so
it waits for i/o in flight.

I agree though, it would be best if non-sync __block_write_full_page()
would not block on buffers in flight.  Somehow we need to move the
clearing of PageWriteback() until after the buffer has been written
even for the case where ll_rw_block() is called.

Thoughts?

Actually it's exactly the same here I'm just not bothered by my USB HCD 
not having an IRQ since
my USB mouse still works.

It says this when booting:

PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 0000:00:02.0. Please try 
using pci=biosirq.
drivers/usb/core/hcd-pci.c: Found HC with no IRQ.  Check BIOS/PCI 
0000:00:02.0 setup!

All I can say is that in 2.6.1-rc1-mm1 it worked and I could have all my 
interrupts off the XT-PIC.

Doesn't sound like a bug in ieee1394. This bus for each is done on the
ieee1394_bus_type, which is registered way ahead of time. Nothing is in
that device list that didn't come from device_register(). Has something
new changed to where I need to prep the device more before passing it to
device_register()?

No, not at all.  You are initializing the structure to 0 before setting
any fields in it, right?  But that wouldn't be the symptom we are seeing
here...

Fact is, I can't reproduce this with stock 2.6.2. If this is only
reproducible in 2.6.2-mm1, then it must be some change in there. What is
occuring is a bus_for_each_dev() where the callback returns 1 so that
the caller can stop and process one device (outside of the
bus_for_each_dev() loop so as not to cause lockups). Then it starts
bus_for_each_dev() again using the last device processed as the starting
point.

Re: 2.6.2-mm1 aka "Geriatric Wombat" DIO read race still fails

[Daniel McNeil]

I patched 2.6.2-mm1 with the wait_on_buffer(bh) in
__block_write_full_page() and my tests ran overnight and
though today without any errors.

I'm looking to see if there is any way to move the end_page_writeback()
for this locked bh case to the end_buffer_write_sync().  Kind of
tricky...

Yeah, it's being memset() to zero. After that I set the parent and the
bus_id, and then call device_register().

One thing I notice is that I am not checking the return value of
device_register(), however if that fails, the device shouldn't be in the
device list for the bus, correct?

That is correct.  I don't see the problem either in looking at your

Well, unless someone finds eveidence to the contrary, I'm going to
assume this isn't a bug in ieee1394 :)
