* [PATCH] tpm: add bios measurement logKylene Jo Hall2006-01-094-0/+529
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to the TCG specifications measurements or hashes of the BIOS code and data are extended into TPM PCRS and a log is kept in an ACPI table of these extensions for later validation if desired. This patch exports the values in the ACPI table through a security-fs seq_file.

* [PATCH] kmsg_write: don't return printk return valueGuillaume Chazarain2006-01-091-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kmsg_write returns with printk, so some programs may be confused by a successful write() with a return value different than the buffer length. # /bin/echo something > /dev/kmsg /bin/echo: write error: Inappropriate ioctl for device The drawbacks is that the printk return value can no more be quickly checked from userspace.

| * [PATCH] pcmcia: unify attach, EVENT_CARD_INSERTION handlers into one probe ↵Dominik Brodowski2006-01-063-154/+30Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | callback Unify the EVENT_CARD_INSERTION and "attach" callbacks to one unified probe() callback. As all in-kernel drivers are changed to this new callback, there will be no temporary backwards-compatibility. Inside a probe() function, each driver _must_ set struct pcmcia_device *p_dev->instance and instance->handle correctly. With these patches, the basic driver interface for 16-bit PCMCIA drivers now has the classic four callbacks known also from other buses: int (*probe) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); void (*remove) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); int (*suspend) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); int (*resume) (struct pcmcia_device *dev); Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

It fixed some machines, but seems to continually interact badly with some X versions. Quoth Ben Herrenschmidt: "So I think at this point, the best is that we keep the old bogus code that at least is consistent with the bug in the server. I'm working on a big patch to X that reworks the memory map stuff completely and fixes those issues on the server side, I'll do a DRM patch matching this X fix as well so that the memory map is only ever set in one place and with what I hope is a correct algorithm..."

* | [PATCH] Fix more radeon GART start calculation casesBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-12-281-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As reported by Jules Villard <jvillard@ens-lyon.fr> and some others, the recent GART aperture start reconfiguration causes problems on some setups. What I _think_ might be happening is that the X server is also trying to muck around with the card memory map and is forcing it back into a wrong setting that also happens to no longer match what the DRM wants to do and blows up. There are bugs all over the place in that code (and still some bugs in the DRM as well anyway). This patch attempts to avoid that by using the largest of the 2 values, which I think will cause it to behave as it used to for you and will still fix the problem with machines that have an aperture size smaller than the video memory.

The offending line was added back in 2.6.11-rc3, but was harmless back then. A recent addition nearby changed it into a compilation breaker: commit 281ab031a8c9e5b593142eb4ec59a87faae8676a. The doubled semi-colon ends up being an empty instruction, and the variable declaration thus ends up being in the middle of "code".

It allows a VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM never touches, and never considers to be normal pages. Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or indeed mark them any other way. It just works. As a side effect, doing mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges. Sparc update from David in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
