1d6757fbff [PATCH] NFS: Fix lookup intent handling
We should never apply a lookup intent to anything other than the last
path component in an open(), create() or access() call.

Introduce the helper nfs_lookup_check_intent() which always returns
zero if LOOKUP_CONTINUE or LOOKUP_PARENT are set, and returns the
intent flags if we're on the last component of the lookup.
By doing so, we fix a bug in open(O_EXCL), where we may end up
optimizing away a real lookup of the parent directory.

66bb8bf8b2 [PATCH] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0).
[AGPGART] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0).

As mentioned earlier, the current check_bridge_mode() code assumes
that AGP bridges are PCI devices.  This isn't always true.  Definitely
not for HP zx1 chipset and the same seems to be the case for SGI's AGP
bridge.

The patch below fixes the problem by picking up the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit
from bridge->mode.  I feel like I may be missing something, since I
can't see any reason why check_bridge_mode() wasn't doing that in the
first place.  According to the AGP 3.0 specs, the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit is
determined during the hardware reset and cannot be changed, so it
seems to me it should be safe to pick it up from bridge->mode.

With the patch applied, I can definitely use AGP acceleration both
with AGP 2.0 and AGP 3.0 (one with an Nvidia card, the other with an
ATI FireGL card).

Unless someone spots a problem, please apply this patch so 3d
acceleration can work on zx1 boxes again.

This makes AGP work again on machines with an AGP bridge that isn't a
PCI device.

07eee78ea8 [PATCH] AGP fix for Xen VMM
When Linux is running on the Xen virtual machine monitor, physical
addresses are virtualised and cannot be directly referenced by the AGP
GART.  This patch fixes the GART driver for Xen by adding a layer of
abstraction between physical addresses and 'GART addresses'.

Architecture-specific functions are also defined for allocating and freeing
the GATT.  Xen requires this to ensure that table really is contiguous from
the point of view of the GART.

These extra interface functions are defined as 'no-ops' for all existing
architectures that use the GART driver.

9ba2779419 [TG3] Fix link failure in 5701
On some 5701 devices with older bootcode, the LED configuration bits in
SRAM may be invalid with value zero. The fix is to check for invalid
bits (0) and default to PHY 1 mode. Incorrect LED mode will lead to
error in programming the PHY.

Thanks to Grant Grundler for debugging the problem.

>From Grant:
| In May, 2004,  tg3 v3.4 changed how MAC_LED_CTRL (0x40c) was getting
| programmed and how to determine what to program into LED_CTRL. The new
| code trusted NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG (0x00000b58) to indicate what to write
| to LED_CTRL and MII EXT_CTRL registers. On "IOX Core Lan", SRAM was
| saying MODE_MAC (0x0) and that doesn't work.

d9d29a2966 [PATCH] namei fixes (15/19)
Getting rid of sloppy logics:

a) in do_follow_link() we have the wrong vfsmount dropped if our symlink
had been mounted on something.  Currently it worls only because we never
get such situation (modulo filesystem playing dirty tricks on us).  And
it obfuscates already convoluted logics...

b) same goes for open_namei().

c) in __link_path_walk() we have another "it should never happen" sloppiness -
out_dput: there does double-free on underlying vfsmount and leaks the covering
one if we hit it just after crossing a mountpoint.  Again, wrong vfsmount
getting dropped.

d) another too-early-mntput() race - in do_follow_mount() we need to postpone
conditional mntput(path->mnt) until after dput(path->dentry).  Again, this one
happens only in it-currently-never-happens-unless-some-fs-plays-dirty
scenario...

e13b210f6f [PATCH] namei fixes (10/19)
In open_namei(), __follow_down() loop turned into __follow_mount().
Instead of
	if we are on a mountpoint dentry
		if O_NOFOLLOW checks fail
			drop path.dentry
			drop nd
			return
		do equivalent of follow_mount(&path.mnt, &path.dentry)
		nd->mnt = path.mnt
we do
	if __follow_mount(path) had, indeed, traversed mountpoint
		/* now both nd->mnt and path.mnt are pinned down */
		if O_NOFOLLOW checks fail
			drop path.dentry
			drop path.mnt
			drop nd
			return
		mntput(nd->mnt)
		nd->mnt = path.mnt

Now __follow_down() can be folded into follow_down() - no other callers left.
We need to reorder dput()/mntput() there - same problem as in follow_mount().

Equivalent transformation + fix for a bug in O_NOFOLLOW handling - we used to
get -ELOOP if we had the same fs mounted on /foo and /bar, had something bound
on /bar/baz and tried to open /foo/baz with O_NOFOLLOW.  And fix of

New helper: __follow_mount(struct path *path).  Same as follow_mount(), except
that we do *not* do mntput() after the first lookup_mnt().

IOW, original path->mnt stays pinned down.  We also take care to do dput()
before mntput() in the loop body (follow_mount() also needs that reordering,
but that will be done later in the series).

The following are equivalent, assuming that path.mnt == x:
(1)
	follow_mount(&path.mnt, &path.dentry)
(2)
	__follow_mount(&path);
	if (path->mnt != x)
		mntput(x);
(3)
	if (__follow_mount(&path))
		mntput(x);

Callers of follow_mount() in __link_path_walk() converted to (2).

839d9f93c9 [PATCH] namei fixes (6/19)
mntget(path->mnt) in do_follow_link() moved down to right before the
__do_follow_link() call and rigth after loop: resp.

dput()+mntput() on non-ELOOP branch moved up to right after __do_follow_link()
call.

resulting
loop:
	mntget(path->mnt);
	path_release(nd);
	dput(path->mnt);
	mntput(path->mnt);
replaced with equivalent
	dput(path->mnt);
	path_release(nd);

Equivalent transformations - the reason why we have that mntget() is that
__do_follow_link() can drop a reference to nd->mnt and that's what holds
path->mnt.  So that call can happen at any point prior to __do_follow_link()
touching nd->mnt.  The rest is obvious.

NOTE: current tree relies on symlinks *never* being mounted on anything.  It's
not hard to get rid of that assumption (actually, that will come for free
later in the series).  For now we are just not making the situation worse than
it is.

1be4a0900b [PATCH] namei fixes (5/19)
fix for too early mntput() in open_namei() - we pin path.mnt down for the
duration of __do_follow_link().  Otherwise we could get the fs where our
symlink lived unmounted while we were in __do_follow_link().  That would end
up with dentry of symlink staying pinned down through the fs shutdown.

d73ffe16b8 [PATCH] namei fixes (4/19)
path.mnt in open_namei() set to mirror nd->mnt.

nd->mnt is set in 3 places in that function - path_lookup() in the beginning,
__follow_down() loop after do_last: and __do_follow_link() call after
do_link:.

We set path.mnt to nd->mnt after path_lookup() and __do_follow_link().  In
__follow_down() loop we use &path.mnt instead of &nd->mnt and set nd->mnt to
path.mnt immediately after that loop.

Obviously equivalent transformation.

4e7506e4dd [PATCH] namei fixes (3/19)
Replaced struct dentry *dentry in namei with struct path path.  All uses of
dentry replaced with path.dentry there.

Obviously equivalent transformation.

5f92b3bcec [PATCH] namei fixes (2/19)
All callers of do_follow_link() do mntget() right before it and
dput()+mntput() right after.  These calls are moved inside do_follow_link()
now.

Obviously equivalent transformation.

90ebe5654f [PATCH] namei fixes
OK, here comes a patch series that hopefully should close all
too-early-mntput() races in fs/namei.c.  Entire area is convoluted as hell, so
I'm splitting that series into _very_ small chunks.

Patches alread in the tree close only (very wide) races in following symlinks
(see "busy inodes after umount" thread some time ago).  Unfortunately, quite a
few narrower races of the same nature were not closed.  Hopefully this should
take care of all of them.
