* [PATCH] vt: Delay the update of the visible consoleDavid Hollister2006-06-261-9/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | Delay the update of the visible framebuffer console until all other consoles have been initialized in order to avoid losing information. This only seems to be a problem with modules, not with built-in drivers.

* [PATCH] hangcheck: remove monotomic_clock on x86Andrew Morton2006-06-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | John's about to nuke x86's monotonic clock without grepping for it first. The patch lamely borrows the ppc64 code for x86. hangcheck-timer shouldn't be doing it this way a) HAVE_MONOTONIC should be CONFIG_MONOTONIC_CLOCK and it should be defined in arch/xxx/Kconfig. b) That ifdef tangle shouldn't be in hangcheck-timer.c. It should be using arch-provided helper functions, which CONFIG_MONOTONIC_CLOCK-enabling architectures implement in arch/something.c Cc: john stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] Remove old HW RNG supportMichael Buesch2006-06-263-714/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch series replaces the old non-generic Hardware Random Number Generator support by a fully generic RNG API. This makes it possible to register additional RNGs from modules. With this patch series applied, Laptops with a bcm43xx chip (PowerBook) have a HW RNG available now. Additionally two new RNG drivers are added for the "ixp4xx" and "omap" devices. (Written by Deepak Saxena). This patch series includes the old patches by Deepak Saxena. The old x86-rng driver has beed split. The userspace RNG daemon can later be updated to select the RNG through /sys/class/misc/hw_random/ for convenience. For now it is sufficient to use cat and echo -n on the sysfs attributes.

* [PATCH] fix magic sysrq on strange keyboardsFredrik Roubert2006-06-261-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Magic sysrq fails to work on many keyboards, particulary most of notebook keyboards. This patch fixes it. The idea is quite simple: Discard the SysRq break code if Alt is still being held down. This way the broken keyboard can send the break code (or the user with a normal keyboard can release the SysRq key) and the kernel waits until the next key is pressed or the Alt key is released.

In most cases the idle pattern is continuous ones or flags as supported by off the shelf synchronous controllers and defined in the ISO3309 standard.

* [PATCH] mm: remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn_range and drop VM_SHMChristoph Lameter2006-06-251-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove VM_LOCKED before remap_pfn range from device drivers and get rid of VM_SHM. remap_pfn_range() already sets VM_IO. There is no need to set VM_SHM since it does nothing. VM_LOCKED is of no use since the remap_pfn_range does not place pages on the LRU. The pages are therefore never subject to swap anyways. Remove all the vm_flags settings before calling remap_pfn_range. After removing all the vm_flag settings no use of VM_SHM is left. Drop it.

This fixes some more problems with flickering (bug #6637). drm may not be appropriate place for this, since doing that flush there might both be overkill and insufficient in some cases. However, it's hard to figure out when that flush is needed, so this has to suffice. There does not seem to be a performance penalty associated with it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A few cleanups in hvc_rtas.c: 1. Remove unused RTASCONS_PUT_ATTEMPTS 2. Remove unused rtascons_put_delay. 3. Use i as a loop counter like everyone else on earth. 4. Remove pointless variables, eg. x = foo; if (x) return something_else; 5. Whitespace cleanups and formatting. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Our "benchmark" is ls -R /etc, which spits out about 27866 characters. The theoretical maximum speed would be about 2.2 seconds, the current code takes ~50 seconds. The core of the problem is that sometimes when the tty layer asks us to push characters the firmware isn't able to handle some or all of them, and so returns an error. The current code sees this and just returns to the tty code with the buffer half sent. The khvcd thread will eventually wake up and try to push more characters, which will usually work because by then the firmware's had time to make room. But the khvcd thread only wakes up every 10 milliseconds, which isn't fast enough. So change the khvcd thread logic so that if there's an incomplete write we yield() and then immediately try writing again. Doing so makes POLL_QUICK and POLL_WRITE synonymous, so remove POLL_QUICK. With this patch our "benchmark" takes ~2.8 seconds. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
