* sysfs: remove BUG_ON() from sysfs_remove_group()Greg Kroah-Hartman2008-02-071-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | It's possible that the caller of sysfs_remove_group messed up and passed in an attribute group that was not really registered to this kobject. But don't panic for such a foolish error, spit out a warning about what happened, and continue on our way safely.

* Driver core: Revert "Fix Firmware class name collision"Michael E Brown2008-02-071-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 109f0e93b6b728f03c1eb4af02bc25d71b646c59. The original patch breaks BIOS updates on all Dell machines. The path to the firmware file for the dell_rbu driver changes, which breaks all of the userspace tools which rely on it. Note that this patch re-introduces a problem with i2c name collision that was previously fixed by this patch.

* Block: Fix whole_disk attribute bugGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-02-071-7/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "whole_disk" attribute was not properly converted in the block device conversion earlier, and if the file is read, bad things can happen. This patch fixes this, making the attribute an empty one, preserving the original functionality. Many thanks to David Miller for finding this, and pointing me in the proper place within the block code to look. Acked-by: David S.

Any kernel oops in user context can be easily handled since the kernel continues as normal and any queued mtd writes are scheduled. Any kernel oops in interrupt context results in a panic and the delayed writes will not be scheduled however. The existing mtd->write function cannot be called in interrupt context so these messages can never be written to flash. This patch adds a panic_write function pointer that drivers can optionally implement which can be called in interrupt context. It is only intended to be called when its known the kernel is about to panic and we need to write to succeed. Since the kernel is not going to be running for much longer, this function can break locks and delay to ensure the write succeeds (but not sleep).

This is needed for example for Intel 48F4400 512MBit chips, since they consist of 2 single different NOR chips with different geometries. The first (lower) one has botton boot sectors and the 2nd (upper) has top boot sectors. This currently isn't handled correctly by calling the physmap driver once with only one resource covering both chips in one memory region. The same geometrie is used for both chips. With this patch the following resource structure can be used to describe the 48F4400 chip correctly: static struct resource board_nor_resource[] = { [0] = { .start = 0xf8000000, .end = 0xfbffffff, .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM, }, [1] = { .start = 0xfc000000, .end = 0xffffffff, .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM, } }; Signed-off-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

For example, for 256MiB Samsung OneNAND flash there might be from 0 to 40 bad initial eraseblocks, which is about 2%. When UBI is used as the base system, one needs to know the exact amount of good physical eraseblocks, because this number is needed to create the UBI image which is put to the devices during production. But this number is not know, which forces us to use the minimum number of good physical eraseblocks. And UBI additionally reserves some percentage of physical eraseblocks for bad block handling (default is 1%), so we have 1-3% of PEBs reserved at the end, depending on the amount of initial bad PEBs. But it is desired to always have 1% (or more, depending on the configuration). Solution: this patch adds an "auto-resize" flag to the volume table. The volume which has the "auto-resize" flag will automatically be re-sized (enlarged) on the first UBI initialization. UBI clears the flag when the volume is re-sized. Only one volume may have the "auto-resize" flag. So, the production UBI image may have one volume with "auto-resize" flag set, and its size is automatically adjusted on the first boot of the device.
