* 9p: Use kthread_stop instead of sending a SIGKILL.Eric W. Biederman2007-02-181-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | Since the kthread api does not bump the reference count on processes that tracked it is not safe allow user space to kill the threads, as I still retain a pointer to the task_struct.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows drm to populate an agpgart structure with pages of its own. It's needed for the new drm memory manager which dynamically flips pages in and out of AGP. The patch modifies the generic functions as well as the intel agp driver. The intel drm driver is currently the only one supporting the new memory manager. Other agp drivers may need some minor fixing up once they have a corresponding memory manager enabled drm driver. AGP memory types >= AGP_USER_TYPES are not populated by the agpgart driver, but the drm is expected to do that, as well as taking care of cache- and tlb flushing when needed. It's not possible to request these types from user space using agpgart ioctls. The Intel driver also gets a new memory type for pages that can be bound cached to the intel GTT.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Start using v2 version of Longhaul when available. It provides voltage scaling and can use ACPI C3 state. That's curious. CPU will not change frequency on ACPI C3 when v1 is in use, but it will when v2 is used. Driver will return max frequency all the time if this isn't true for all processors. There is strange thing with mobile voltage. Looks like only Nehemiah (C3-M) supports it. Earlier processors have different mobile VRM (in docs), but I can't find any which is using it. Looks like all are using VRM 8.5. So fail for non Nehemiah with mobile VRM.

Beta tested by Jorgen (jorgen (at) greven dot dk). Thanks! Based on documentation provided by Dave Jones (Thanks!) and C7 Eden datasheet available from www.via.com.tw. Looks like all these C7 Eden CPU's don't have P-states in BIOS. I know that 2 p-states is low, but Jorgen finds it usefull anyway because board is passive cooled. There are 3 different types of C7 processors (called brands): 0. C7-M - these processors can set any maultiplier between min and max, any voltage between min and max. 1. C7 - only min and max states are supported. Voltage is different for min and max states. 2. Eden - only min and max states are supported. Looks like this brand can only change multiplier.

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When setting an ACL that lacks inheritable ACEs on a directory, we should set a default ACL of zero length, not a default ACL with all bits denied.

That's fine, but we're doing that by inserting a deny after *every* allow, which is overkill. We shouldn't be adding them in places where they actually make no difference. Also replaced some helper functions for creating acl entries; I prefer just assigning directly to the struct fields--it takes a few more lines, but the field names provide some documentation that I think makes the result easier understand.

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 printable, blob. Let's just use the ip address instead. The server name appears to exist just to help debugging by making some printk's more informative. Note that the string is copies into the rpc client structure, so the pointer to the local variable does not outlive the function call. Signed-off-by: "J.
