drivers/char/pcmcia/ipwireless/hardware.c fix resource leak

2008-07-12T21:33:41Z

Coverity CID: 2172 RESOURCE_LEAK When pool_allocate() tries to enlarge a packet, if it can not allocate enough memory, it returns NULL without first freeing the old packet. This patch just frees the packet first. Signed-off-by: Darren Jenkins Acked-by: Jiri Kosina Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] IPMI: return correct value from ipmi_write

2008-07-11T20:31:05Z

This patch corrects the handling of write operations to the IPMI watchdog to work as intended by returning the number of characters actually processed. Without this patch, an "echo V >/dev/watchdog" enables the watchdog if IPMI is providing the watchdog function.

rtc: fix reported IRQ rate for when HPET is enabled

2008-07-11T01:04:43Z

The IRQ rate reported back by the RTC is incorrect when HPET is enabled. Newer hardware that has HPET to emulate the legacy RTC device gets this value wrong since after it sets the rate, it returns before setting the variable used to report the IRQ rate back to users of the device -- so the set rate and the reported rate get out of sync.

tty: Fix inverted logic in send_break

2008-07-03T02:21:48Z

Not sure how this came to get inverted but it appears to have been my mess up. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

DRM/i915: only use tiled blits on 965+

2008-07-03T01:42:23Z

When scheduled swaps occur, we need to blit between front & back buffers. If the buffers are tiled, we need to set the appropriate XY_SRC_COPY tile bit, but only on 965 chips, since it will cause corruption on pre-965 (e.g. 945). Bug reported by and fix tested by Tomas Janousek . Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes Acked-by: Dave Airlie Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

enable bus mastering on i915 at resume time

2008-06-24T18:17:25Z

On 9xx chips, bus mastering needs to be enabled at resume time for much of the chip to function. With this patch, vblank interrupts will work as expected on resume, along with other chip functions. Fixes kernel bugzilla #10844. Signed-off-by: Jie Luo Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

removed unused var real_tty on n_tty_ioctl()

2008-06-23T17:36:47Z

I noted that the 'struct tty_struct *real_tty' is not used in this function, so I removed the code about 'real_tty'. Signed-off-by: Gustavo Fernando Padovan Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Merge branch 'drm-patches' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6

2008-06-20T19:38:18Z

* 'drm-patches' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6: (21 commits) drm: only trust core drm ioctls - driver ioctls are a mess. drm/i915: add support for Intel series 4 chipsets. drm/radeon: add hier-z registers for r300 and r500 chipsets drm/radeon: use DSTCACHE_CTLSTAT rather than RB2D_DSTCACHE_CTLSTAT drm/radeon: switch IGP gart to use radeon_write_agp_base() drm/radeon: Restore sw interrupt on resume drm/r500: add support for AGP based cards. drm/radeon: fix texture uploads with large 3d textures (bug 13980) drm/radeon: add initial r500 support. drm/radeon: init pipe setup in kernel code. drm/radeon: fixup radeon_do_engine_reset drm/radeon: fix pixcache and purge/cache flushing registers drm/radeon: write AGP_BASE_2 on chips that support it. drm/radeon: merge IGP chip setup and fixup RS400 vs RS480 support drm/radeon: IGP clean up register and magic numbers. drm/rs690: set base 2 to 0. drm/rs690: set all of gart base address. radeon: add production microcode from AMD drm: pcigart use proper pci map interfaces. drm: the sg alloc ioctl should write back the handle to userspace ...

drm: only trust core drm ioctls - driver ioctls are a mess.

2008-06-20T05:42:38Z

So driver ioctls need a full auditing before we can make this change. Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie
