module: explicitly align module_version_attribute structure

2011-02-21T23:21:53Z

We force particular alignment when we generate attribute structures when generation MODULE_VERSION() data and we need to make sure that this alignment is followed when we iterate over these structures, otherwise we may crash on platforms whose natural alignment is not sizeof(void *), such as m68k.

Expand CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST to several other list operations

2011-02-18T19:32:28Z

When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries. However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that. So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries, we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them.. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

RTC: Re-enable UIE timer/polling emulation

RTC: Revert UIE emulation removal

2011-02-17T22:59:41Z

Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs. This patch reverts the following commits: 042620a018afcfba1d678062b62e46 - Remove UIE emulation 1daeddd5962acad1bea55e524fc0fa - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration b5cc8ca1c9c3a37eaddf709b2fd3e1 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following patch before it will work.

workqueue, freezer: unify spelling of 'freeze' + 'able' to 'freezable'

2011-02-16T16:48:59Z

There are two spellings in use for 'freeze' + 'able' - 'freezable' and 'freezeable'. The former is the more prominent one. The latter is mostly used by workqueue and in a few other odd places. Unify the spelling to 'freezable'. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Reported-by: Alan Stern Acked-by: "Rafael J.

thp: prevent hugepages during args/env copying into the user stack

2011-02-15T23:21:11Z

Transparent hugepages can only be created if rmap is fully functional. So we must prevent hugepages to be created while is_vma_temporary_stack() is true. This also optmizes away some harmless but unnecessary setting of khugepaged_scan.address and it switches some BUG_ON to VM_BUG_ON.
