Linux 2.6.10-rc3

Linux 2.6.10-rc3

[Linus Torvalds]

Ok, it's out there in all the normal places, and here's the shortlog for
the thing.

Mostly a lot of small fixes, although the MIPS update is pretty sizeable 
simply because it's been a while. 

ACPI updates and a new i2c driver, mtd, arm, uml updates.. fbdev and 
sparse fixes. And a lot of other small things better just described by the 
changelogs.

Please do test this - and don't send me anything but bug-fixes. Let's aim
for a real 2.6.10 before xmas (or hanukkah, or whatever your favourite
holiday happens to be).

		Linus

In the spirit of festive testing I would like to say that the oops that I
enjoyed throughout rc2-bk* is still present in -rc3. -mm series does not
have this problem.

I boot -rc3 single user then do
	modprobe -r dvb-bt8xx
The system oopses, but I can do a clean reboot (original -rc2
could not umount cleanly).

My thinkpad will resume fine if I remove the intel8x0 and intel8x0m ALSA 
modules before going into suspend - works with both APM and ACPI, though 
I don't really use ACPI suspend because the battery drains like crazy.

i saw there were some changes to alsa cvs having to do with the new
pci device handling. i'll reconfigure the kernel with alsa as modules
and try alsa cvs to see if that makes any difference. thanks.

Re: Linux 2.6.10-rc3

[Ari Pollak]

I looked at ALSA driver CVS a couple of days ago to see if anything has 
changed since the last release (included in 2.6.10-rc1+). The only thing 
significant that I found in the CVS intel8x0 driver, which added 
pci_disable_device() calls, didn't seem to help the resume problem when 
I applied this change to my kernel sources.

This has been discussed in an earlier thread, I was hoping the ALSA
people would submit the patch but that hasn't happened.
I'll submit it in a separate mail.

Try the patch below, it should fix the problem.

That's an usb2.0 bug, the ehci driver sleeps when it can't sleep.

I have the message bellow without ehci-hcd module loaded, so I took out

Hi Eyal,

>From what I can tell the oops comes from the above function calling 
dvb_bt8xx_i2c_info after the module that holds it (dvb-bt8xx) gets 
unloaded. The dvb_bt8xx... function has been removed from rc2-mm4 so 
that's prolly why you don't get the oops in the -mm kernels.

Until the changes propagate from -mm to Linus' tree the below patch should 
take care of it.

Not good. My rc.boot/local has this line
	modprobe dvb_bt8xx
	modprobe v4l1-compat
	modprobe sp887x
	modprobe mt352

and this now seems to generate an oops (see end of boot log).

Yes, that is a bad patch, I missed part of what the i2c_info function was 
doing. It looks like this isn't going to be able to be solved with a 
simple patch.

For the time being if you need to remove/reload the modules I'd try using 
'rmmod' instead of 'modprobe -r' - you might be able to avoid the oops by 
removing modules one by one in a strict order.

If that's not feasible I'd stick with the -mm4 tree or pre-rc2 until the 
-mm changes go into mainline.

FS Corruption [Re: Linux 2.6.10-rc3]

Hi Linus - I'm seeing filesystem corruption (on ext3 anyway) with -rc3; 
there is no such corruption on -rc2.  It would be better if somebody 
with a clue reported this; but since I haven't seen anything, I thought 
I'd hollar before somebody loses work as a result.  (Everybody does real 
work on -rc kernels, don't they? :-)

I untarred a kernel tarball into a directory, renamed it "foo", reboot 
(to clear disk cache), and then did this:

pinhead:/usr/src/kernels# rm -r foo &
[1] 3268
pinhead:/usr/src/kernels# tar xzf linux-2.6.9.tar.gz

Running e2fsck on the next boot reports I've got a damaged filesystem.

Re: Linux 2.6.10-rc3 (compile stats)

[John Cherry]

The compile regressions have been down for awhile.  Sorry about that.  I
fired them up again with a little newer compiler (3.4.1).  The list
below shows both Linus' and Andrew's releases since 2.6.9.  All the
regressions and detailed information are on the web site listed below.

Oh joy.  I think thats a different one.  And I suspect there are a few
more of that kind which simply didn't show up yet because the user
base is too small.  The current way of doing the initialization of the
frontend devices (in Linus' tree) is simply a big mess and you may get
all sorts of strange effects depending on the order you load or unload
the modules if one of the parties involved doesn't get it right.

What happens if you "rmmod mt352" first?  Guess it works without
oopsing then?

I somehow feel the best way to deal with that is to merge the
redesigned frontend handing pending in -mm at the moment into Linus
tree _now_, that should kill that whole class of bugs.

That may result in the dvb subsystem not being that stable in 2.6.10.
But dvb not being rock solid in 2.6.10 will very likely happen anyway
as the code currently in Linus' tree isn't very stable as well.  I
think the chance that it gets even worse is small enougth that we can
take the risk.

Additional bonus would be that we don't get bugreports for the old
code base which is already obsolete (and nobody wants to work on
because of that).

Johannes and I had agreed with Andrew that the redesigned frontend code 
should stay in -mm for now, because we expect that support for some 
cards is broken. We currently don't receive very much reports on the 
mailing list though.

I just spoke to Johannes and we agree with you, Gerd. The DVB changes 
can and should be merged from -mm now. There is a fair chance that the 
remaining issues with broken cards can be resolved before 2.6.10.

The code is in a good shape and only some small patches are missing from 
the LinuxTV.org CVS.

I can prepare a patch that fixes the support for some cards and other 
minor improvements tomorrow.

How much end-user testing has the new code had?  ie: are we confident that
the new code is presently more stable than the old code?

Yup, please start working on those things.

Test coverage by people running -rc or -mm kernels seems to be small,
my impression is that the users tend to use either the versions in
release kernels (i.e. 2.6.9) or latest stuff from cvs.  I'd say it is
mostly tested by people tracking the linuxtv cvs.

> ie: are we confident that the new code is presently more stable than

I'm pretty sure, otherwise I wouldn't have suggested that.  Test coverage
is probably about the same for the code currently in Linus tree and the
-mm updates.  The last big dvb update which introduced the problems we
see now in 2.6.10-rc kernels was merged after 2.6.9, so I think it
didn't got that much end user testing as well.

The interface design of the current code is much better and less error
prone, that alone should help alot in stability by fixing the oopses.
The new frontend handling has -- unlike the old one -- no problems with
i2c address clashes, which should also fix a number of problems.

The new core code runs rock solid, I use that every day without problems.
We might have introduced some new hardware specific bugs nobody trapped
into so far (but thats true for the code currently in -rc3 as well, see
above).

Which should help alot when dealing with any issues showing up because
merging fixes from cvs into mainline kernel will be very easy ;)

suspend and resume methods must be able to sleep because you may
need to talk to external hardware, wait for queues to drain, etc
which may in turn require kernel threads to run.

We must be able to sleep in suspend/resume methods.  PCMCIA requires
it, as do other subsystems.

Yes, lots of drivers are expected to be able to schedule in suspend and
resume requests. If that was broken upstream, then this is a big BUG.

Who changed it so that context was no longer allowed to sleep???

That's a very recent change ... I've done a fair amount of testing
in previous kernels and _never_ got that message on that path.

Why was that changed?  Are you sure it's not just a bug higher up
in the call stack?  Classically(*), both suspend() and resume()
methods are called in contexts that can sleep, so that's a big
change I'd expect to impact other drivers too.  In fact that'd
explain a lot of other messages I saw reported on the list...
