dm-mpath-rdac: don't stomp on a requests transfer bit

2007-08-27T23:15:44+00:00

Without this, we get qla2xxx complaining about "ISP System Error". What's happening here is the firmware is detecting a Xfer-ready from the storage when in fact the data-direction for a mode-select should be a write (DATA_OUT). The following patch fixes the problem (typo). Verified by Brian, as well. Signed-off-by: Andrew Vasquez Verified-by: Brian De Wolf Signed-off-by: Chandra Seetharaman Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

fix bogus hotplug cpu warning

2007-08-27T17:27:48+00:00

Fix bogus DEBUG_PREEMPT warning on x86_64, when cpu brought online after bootup: current_is_keventd is right to note its use of smp_processor_id is preempt-safe, but should use raw_smp_processor_id to avoid the warning. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

reverse CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT default

2007-08-27T17:27:48+00:00

Sigh. Again an ACPI assault on the Thinkpad's Fn+F4 to suspend to RAM. The default and text for CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED were fixed in -rc3, but now commit 14e04fb34ffa82ee61ae69f98d8fca12d2e8e31c ("ACPI: Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal") introduces the ACPI_PROC_EVENT config entry, and defaults it to 'n' to disable it again. Change default to y, and add comment to make it clearer that n is for future distros. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

fix maxcpus=N parsing

2007-08-27T17:27:48+00:00

Commit 61ec7567db103d537329b0db9a887db570431ff4 ('ACPI: boot correctly with "nosmp" or "maxcpus=0"') broke 'maxcpus=' handling on x86[-64]. maxcpus=N is now having no effect on x86_64, and freezing bootup on i386 (because of inconsistency with the separate maxcpus parsing down in arch/i386, I guess). That's because early_param parsing is a little different from __setup parsing, and needs the "=" omitted: then it seems to work as the original commit intended (no mention of IO-APIC in /proc/interrupts when maxcpus=0).
