This is the patch (based on 2.6.19-rc4) for PATA controller of
Toshiba Cell reference set(Celleb). The reference set consists
of Cell, 512MB memory, Super Companion Chip(SCC) and some
peripherals such as HDD, GbE, etc. You can see brief explanation
and picture of Cell reference set at following URLs.
http://www.toshiba.co.jp/about/press/2005_09/pr2001.htmhttp://cell-industries.com/toshiba_announces.php
We use a drivers/ide driver because its design is more suitable for
SCC IDE controller than libata driver. Since SCC supports only 32bit
read/write, we must override many callbacks of ata_port_operations
by modifying generic helpers. Each time the libata common code is
updated, we must update those modified helpers. It is very hard for us.
But we will try to implement the libata driver as needed.

Fix a number of issues with the DMA support code:
- driver claims support for all SW/MW DMA modes while supporting only MWDMA2;
- ide_dma_check() method tries to enable DMA on the "known good" drives which
don't support MWDMA2;
- ide_dma_on() method upon failure to set drive to MWDMA2 re-tunes already
tuned PIO mode and calls ide_dma_off() method instead of returning error;
- ide_dma_off() method sets drive->current_speed while it doesn't actually
change (only the PIO timings are re-loaded into the chip's registers);
- init_hwif() method forcibly sets/resets both "drive DMA capable" bits while
this is properly handled by ide_dma_{on,off}() methods being called later...

A ZIP or similar with unformatted media will cause crashes when attempts
are made to read/write it in some cases. This is because bs_factor is
zero and we divide by it causing an oops.
As the size of a non-accessible/non-existant media is really a bit of a
zen question it doesn't matter if non-existant media is 512 bytes per
sector or zero. Setting it to 1 causes us to generate 512 bytes/sector
accesses and error properly.

When NFSD receives a write request, the data is typically in a number of
1448 byte segments and writev is used to collect them together.
Unfortunately, generic_file_buffered_write passes these to the filesystem
one at a time, so an e.g. 32K over-write becomes a series of partial-page
writes to each page, causing the filesystem to have to pre-read those pages
- wasted effort.
generic_file_buffered_write handles one segment of the vector at a time as
it has to pre-fault in each segment to avoid deadlocks. When writing from
kernel-space (and nfsd does) this is not an issue, so
generic_file_buffered_write does not need to break and iovec from nfsd into
little pieces.
This patch avoids the splitting when get_fs is KERNEL_DS as it is
from NFSd.
This issue was introduced by commit 6527c2bdf1

The rfc allows us to be more permissive about the ACL inheritance bits we
accept:
"If the server supports a single "inherit ACE" flag that applies to
both files and directories, the server may reject the request
(i.e., requiring the client to set both the file and directory
inheritance flags). The server may also accept the request and
silently turn on the ACE4_DIRECTORY_INHERIT_ACE flag."
Let's take the latter option--the ACL is a complex attribute that could be
rejected for a wide variety of reasons, and the protocol gives us little
ability to explain the reason for the rejection, so erroring out is a
user-unfriendly last resort.

What's more, the client identifier is just a binary, not necessarily

appears to exist just to help debugging by making some printk's more

Note that the string is copies into the rpc client structure, so the pointer

Never mask interrupts immediately upon request. Disabling interrupts in
high-performance codepaths is rare, and on the other hand this change could
recover lost edges (or even other types of lost interrupts) by conservatively
only masking interrupts after they happen. (NOTE: with this change the
highlevel irq-disable code still soft-disables this IRQ line - and if such an
interrupt happens then the IRQ flow handler keeps the IRQ masked.)

Use RCU to avoid the need to acquire tasklist_lock in the single-threaded
case of clock_gettime(). It still acquires tasklist_lock when for a
(potentially multithreaded) process. This change allows realtime
applications to frequently monitor CPU consumption of individual tasks, as
requested (and now deployed) by some off-list users.
This has been in Ingo Molnar's -rt patchset since late 2005 with no
problems reported, and tests successfully on 2.6.20-rc6, so I believe that
it is long-since ready for mainline adoption.

The local apic timer calibration has two problem cases:
1. The calibration is based on readout of the PIT/HPET timer to detect the
wrap of the periodic tick. It happens that a box gets stuck in the
calibration loop due to a PIT with a broken readout function.
2. CoreDuo boxen show a sporadic PIT runs too slow defect, which results
in a wrong lapic calibration. The PIT goes back to normal operation once
the lapic timer is switched to periodic mode.
Both are existing and unfixed problems in the current upstream kernel and
prevent certain laptops and other systems from booting Linux.
Rework the code to address both problems:
- Make the calibration interrupt driven. This removes the wait_timer_tick
magic hackery from lapic.c and time_hpet.c. The clockevents framework
allows easy substitution of the global tick event handler for the
calibration. This is more accurate than monitoring jiffies. At this point
of the boot process, nothing disturbes the interrupt delivery, so the
results are very accurate.
- Verify the calibration against the PM timer, when available by using the
early access function. When the measured calibration period is outside of
an one percent window, then the lapic timer calibration is adjusted to the
pm timer result.
- Verify the calibration by running the lapic timer with the calibration
handler. Disable lapic timer in case of deviation.
This also removes the "synchronization" of the local apic timer to the global
tick. This synchronization never worked, as there is no way to synchronize
PIT(HPET) and local APIC timer. The synchronization by waiting for the tick
just alignes the local APIC timer for the first events, but later the events
drift away due to the different clocks. Removing the "sync" is just
randomizing the asynchronous behaviour at setup time.
