[PATCH] Fix ptrace/strace
Don't clobber register %l0 while checking TI_SYS_NOERROR value in
syscall return path. This bug was introduced by:
db7d9a4eb700be766cc9f29241483dbb1e748832
Problem narrowed down by Luis F. Ortiz and Richard Mortimer.
I tried using %l2 as suggested by Luis and that works for me.
Looking at the code I wonder if it makes sense to simplify the code
a little bit. The following works for me but I'm not sure how to
exercise the "NOERROR" codepath.

The PPTP NAT helper calculates the offset at which the packet needs

on the stack and the calculation results in a wrong offset beeing

[PATCH] fix workqueue oops during cpu offline
Use first_cpu(cpu_possible_map) for the single-thread workqueue case. We
used to hardcode 0, but that broke on systems where !cpu_possible(0) when
workqueue_struct->cpu_workqueue_struct was changed from a static array to
alloc_percpu.
Commit id bce61dd49d6ba7799be2de17c772e4c701558f14 ("Fix hardcoded cpu=0 in
workqueue for per_cpu_ptr() calls") fixed that for Ben's funky sparc64
system, but it regressed my Power5. Offlining cpu 0 oopses upon the next
call to queue_work for a single-thread workqueue, because now we try to
manipulate per_cpu_ptr(wq->cpu_wq, 1), which is uninitialized.
So we need to establish an unchanging "slot" for single-thread workqueues
which will have a valid percpu allocation. Since alloc_percpu keys off of
cpu_possible_map, which must not change after initialization, make this
slot == first_cpu(cpu_possible_map).

[PATCH] Fix onboard video on SPARC Blade 100 for 2.6.{13,14,15}
I have recently been switching from using 2.4.32 on my trusty
old Sparc Blade 100 to using 2.6.15 . Some of the problems I ran into
were distorted video when the console was active (missing first
character, skipped dots) and when running X windows (colored snow,
stripes, missing pixels). A quick examination of the 2.6 versus 2.4
source for the ATY driver revealed alot of changes.
A closer look at the code/data for the 64GR/XL chip revealed
two minor "typos" that the rewriter(s) of the code made. The first is
a incorrect clock value (230 .vs. 235) and the second is a missing
flag (M64F_SDRAM_MAGIC_PLL). Making both these changes seems to have
fixed my problem. I tend to think the 235 value is the correct one,
as there is a 29.4 Mhz clock crystal close to the video chip and 235.2
(29.4*8) is too close to 235 to make it a coincidence.
The flag for M64F_SDRAM_MAGIC_PLL was dropped during the
changes made by adaplas in file revision 1.72 on the old bitkeeper
repository.
The change relating to the clock rate has been there forever,
at least in the 2.6 tree. I'm not sure where to look for the old 2.5
tree or if anyone cares when it happened.
On SPARC Blades 100's, which use the ATY MACH64GR video chipset, the
clock crystal frequency is 235.2 Mhz, not 230 Mhz. The chipset also
requires the use of M64F_SDRAM_MAGIC_PLL in order to setup the PLL
properly for the DRAM.

[PATCH] skge: handle out of memory on ring changes
Please consider this for 2.6.15.1; it fixes several cases where
the skge driver can get in a bad state and later crash; if an
admin operation that causes a restart fails from out of memory.
Such as changing the MTU or increasing the ring size.
The fixes involve checking the return value and doing necessary
unwinds. Or in some cases avoiding doing a full restart.
The same code is the netdev-2.6 tree for 2.6.16 but as separate pieces

[PATCH] BRIDGE: Fix faulty check in br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id()
There is a regression in 2.6.15.
One of the conversions from memcmp to compare_ether_addr is incorrect.
We need to do relative comparison to determine min MAC address to
use in bridge id. This will cause the wrong bridge id to be chosen
which violates 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol, and may create forwarding
loops.
