Is there a reason why the "online" file in the subdirectories for the CPUs
in /sys/devices/system isn't world-readable? I cannot imagine it to be
security relevant especially now that a getcpu() syscall can be used to
determine what CPUa thread runs on.
The file is useful to correctly implement the sysconf() function to return
the number of online CPUs. In the presence of hotplug we currently cannot
provide this information. The patch below should to it.

This seems like it will break decades-long-working stuff, in favor of
breaking new ground in our favorite area, "trusting the BIOS."
It's just not worth it for serial ports, IMO. Serial ports are something
that just shouldn't break at this late stage in the game. My new Intel
platform boxes don't even have serial ports, so I question the value of
messing with serial port probing even more... because... just wait a year,
and your box won't have a serial port either! :)
I certainly don't object to the use of platform devices (or isa_driver),
but the probe change seems questionable. That's sorta analagous to
rewriting the floppy driver probe routine. Sure you could do it... but why
risk all that damage and go through debugging all over again?
It seems clear from this report that we cannot, should not, trust BIOS for
something (a) so simple and (b) that has been working for over a decade.
Much discussion ensued and we've decided to have another go at all of this.

A succesful downcall with a negative result (which indicates that the given

Currently mountd is depending on stdio to write these downcalls. With some

Reported in: Bugzilla Bug 8727
Fix typo and bogus logic in get_default_font(). The bug results in

framebuffer driver.
Since the commit 2c3b110debd6e50d00773194c9ee64ca6f7f3fa7, "%lx" is not
suitable for p->mapbase (resource_size_t) in 32-bit. This patch fixes a
compiler warning caused by the mismatch.
Do not trigger OOM-killer for high-order allocation failures
out_of_memory() may be called when an allocation is failing and the direct
reclaim is not making any progress. This does not take into account the
requested order of the allocation. If the request if for an order larger
than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER, it is reasonable to fail the allocation
because the kernel makes no guarantees about those allocations succeeding.
This false OOM situation can occur if a user is trying to grow the hugepage
pool in a script like;
#!/bin/bash
REQUIRED=$1
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/hugepages_treat_as_movable
echo $REQUIRED > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
ACTUAL=`cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages`
while [ $REQUIRED -ne $ACTUAL ]; do
echo Huge page pool at $ACTUAL growing to $REQUIRED
echo $REQUIRED > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
ACTUAL=`cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages`
sleep 1
done
This is a reasonable scenario when ZONE_MOVABLE is in use but triggers OOM
easily on 2.6.23-rc1. This patch will fail an allocation for an order above
PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER instead of killing processes and retrying.

kobject: fix link error when CONFIG_HOTPLUG is disabled
Leaving kobject_actions[] in kobject_uevent.c, but putting it outside
the #ifdef looks indeed like the best solution to me. This way, we
avoid adding #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG into core.c, when all other
functions called do not need such a thing.

Update the scatterlist logic so that PIO options are also disabled
when an IOMMU may have coalesced pages during dma_map_sg() ... it's

There also seems to be a cross-arch issue here, with 64bit powerpc
not using an IOMMU define ... and its IOMMU_VMERGE config can always
be overridden on the kernel command line. So this is better, but
still imperfect.

Coverity is right. The check for NULL is wrongly done and the error

patch merely checks periodically, and corrects it if needed (the
overwrite can cause us to not get error and hardware error
interrupts). Also, make dd->ipath_errormask the one, true canonical

it is currently unused.
