2010-01-11lib: add support for LZO-compressed kernelsAlbin Tonnerre
This patch series adds generic support for creating and extracting LZO-compressed kernel images, as well as support for using such images on the x86 and ARM architectures, and support for creating and using LZO-compressed initrd and initramfs images. Russell King said: : Testing on a Cortex A9 model: : - lzo decompressor is 65% of the time gzip takes to decompress a kernel : - lzo kernel is 9% larger than a gzip kernel : : which I'm happy to say confirms your figures when comparing the two. : : However, when comparing your new gzip code to the old gzip code: : - new is 99% of the size of the old code : - new takes 42% of the time to decompress than the old code : : What this means is that for a proper comparison, the results get even better: : - lzo is 7.5% larger than the old gzip'd kernel image : - lzo takes 28% of the time that the old gzip code took : : So the expense seems definitely worth the effort. The only reason I : can think of ever using gzip would be if you needed the additional : compression (eg, because you have limited flash to store the image.) : : I would argue that the default for ARM should therefore be LZO. This patch: The lzo compressor is worse than gzip at compression, but faster at extraction. Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on: Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo gzip 1.61Mo 0.72s lzo 1.75Mo 0.48s So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's much faster to extract, at least in that case. This part contains: - Makefile routine to support lzo compression - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in compressed kernels - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here - config dialog for kernel compression [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Tested-by: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> Acked-by: "H.

2010-01-11zlib: optimize inffast when copying direct from outputJoakim Tjernlund
JFFS2 uses lesser compression ratio and inflate always ends up in "copy direct from output" case. This patch tries to optimize the direct copy procedure. Uses get_unaligned() but only in one place. The copy loop just above this one can also use this optimization, but I havn't done so as I have not tested if it is a win there too. On my MPC8321 this is about 17% faster on my JFFS2 root FS than the original.

2010-01-11kmod: fix resource leak in call_usermodehelper_pipe()Masami Hiramatsu
Fix resource (write-pipe file) leak in call_usermodehelper_pipe(). When call_usermodehelper_exec() fails, write-pipe file is opened and call_usermodehelper_pipe() just returns an error. Since it is hard for caller to determine whether the error occured when opening the pipe or executing the helper, the caller cannot close the pipe by themselves. I've found this resoruce leak when testing coredump. You can check how the resource leaks as below; $ echo "|nocommand" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern $ ulimit -c unlimited $ while [ 1 ]; do ./segv; done &> /dev/null & $ cat /proc/meminfo (<- repeat it) where segv.c is; //----- int main () { char *p = 0; *p = 1; } //----- This patch closes write-pipe file if call_usermodehelper_exec() failed.

Commit fd8fbfc1 modified the way we find amount of reserved space belonging to an inode. The amount of reserved space is checked from dquot_transfer and thus inode_reserved_space gets called even for filesystems that don't provide get_reserved_space callback which results in a BUG.

Bail out if we don't find an enclosing IOC. Previously, if we didn't find one, we tried to set things up using garbage for the SBA/IOC register address, which causes a crash. This crash only happens if firmware supplies a defective ACPI namespace, so it doesn't fix any problems in the field.

2010-01-11agp/hp: fixup hp agp after ACPI changesBjorn Helgaas
Commit 15b8dd53f5ffa changed the string in info->hardware_id from a static array to a pointer and added a length field. But instead of changing "sizeof(array)" to "length", we changed it to "sizeof(length)" (== 4), which corrupts the string we're trying to null-terminate. We no longer even need to null-terminate the string, but we *do* need to check whether we found a HID. If there's no HID, we used to have an empty array, but now we have a null pointer. The combination of these defects causes this oops: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference (address 0000000000000003) modprobe[895]: Oops 8804682956800 [1] ip is at zx1_gart_probe+0xd0/0xcc0 [hp_agp] http://marc.info/?l=linux-ia64&m=126264484923647&w=2 Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reported-by: Émeric Maschino <emeric.maschino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

2010-01-11drm/nouveau: Fix null deref in nouveau_fence_emit due to deleted fenceLuca Barbieri
Currently Nouveau will unvalidate all buffers if it is forced to wait on one, and then start revalidating from the beginning. While doing so, it destroys the operation fence, causing nouveau_fence_emit to crash. This patch fixes this bug by taking the fence object out of validate_op and creating it just before emit. The fence pointer is initialized to 0 and unref'ed unconditionally. In addition to fixing the bug, this prevents its reintroduction and simplifies the code.

2010-01-11drm/nv50: prevent a possible ctxprog hangBen Skeggs
The below is mainly an educated guess at what's going on, docs would sure be handy... NVIDIA? :P It appears it's possible for a ctxprog to run even while a GPU exception is pending. The GF8 and up ctxprogs appear to have a small snippet of code which detects this, and stalls the ctxprog until it's been handled, which essentially looks like: if (r2 & 0x00008000) { r0 |= 0x80000000; while (r0 & 0x80000000) {} } I don't know of any way that flag would get cleared unless the driver intervenes (and indeed, in the cases I've seen the hang, nothing steps in to automagically clear it for us). This patch causes the driver to clear the flag during the PGRAPH IRQ handler. Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>

In that case we get an ILLEGAL_MTHD interrupt as expected, but the values in PGRAPH_TRAPPED_ADDR aren't calculated correctly and they're almost useless (e.g. you can see ILLEGAL_MTHDs for the now inactive channel, with a wrong offset/data pair).
