V4L/DVB (13230): s2255drv: Don't conditionalize video buffer completion on waiting processes
The s2255 driver had logic which aborted processing of a video frame
if there was no process waiting on the video buffer in question. That
simply doesn't work when the application is doing things in an
asynchronous manner. If the application went to the trouble to queue
the buffer in the first place, then the driver should always attempt
to complete it - even if the application at that moment has its
attention turned elsewhere. Applications which always blocked waiting
for I/O on the capture device would not have been affected by this.
Applications which *mostly* blocked waiting for I/O on the capture
device probably only would have been somewhat affected (frame lossage,
at a rate which goes up as the application blocks less). Applications
which never blocked on the capture device (e.g. polling only) however
would never have been able to receive any video frames, since in that
case this "is anyone waiting on this?" check on the buffer never would
have evalutated true. This patch just deletes that harmful check
against the buffer's wait queue.

V4L/DVB (13170): bttv: Fix reversed polarity error when switching video standard
The bttv driver function which handles switching of the video standard
(set_tvnorm() in bttv-driver.c) includes a check which can optionally
also reset the cropping configuration to a default value. It is
"optional" based on a comparison of the cropcap parameters of the
previous vs the newly requested video standard. The comparison is
being done with a memcmp(), a function which only returns a true value
if the comparison actually fails.
This if-statement appears to have been written to assume wrong
memcmp() semantics. That is, it was re-initializing the cropping
configuration only if the new video standard did NOT have different
cropcap values. That doesn't make any sense. One definitely should
reset things if the cropcap parameters are different - if there's any
comparison to made at all.
The effect of this problem was that a transition from, say, PAL to
NTSC would leave in place old cropping setup that made sense for the
PAL geometry but not for NTSC. If the application doesn't care about
cropping it also won't try to reset the cropping configuration,
resulting in an improperly cropped video frame. In the case I was
testing this actually caused black video frames to be displayed.
Another interesting effect of this bug is that if one does something
which does NOT change the video standard and this function is run,
then the cropping setup gets reset anyway - again because of the
backwards comparison. It turns out that just running anything which
merely opens and closes the video device node (e.g. v4l-info) will
cause this to happen. One can argue that simply opening the device
node and not doing anything to it should not mess with any of its
state - but because of this behavior, any TV app which does such
things (e.g. xawtv) probably therefore doesn't see the problem.
The solution is to fix the sense of the if-statement. It's easy to
see how this mistake could have been made given how memcmp() works.
The patch is therefore removal of a single "!" character from the
if-statement in set_tvnorm in bttv-driver.c.

V4L/DVB (13169): bttv: Fix potential out-of-order field processing
There is a subtle interaction in the bttv driver which can result in
fields being repeatedly processed out of order. This is a problem
specifically when running in V4L2_FIELD_ALTERNATE mode (probably the
most common case).
1. The determination of which fields are associated with which buffers
happens in videobuf, before the bttv driver gets a chance to queue the
corresponding DMA. Thus by the point when the DMA is queued for a
given buffer, the algorithm has to do the queuing based on the
buffer's already assigned field type - not based on which field is
"next" in the video stream.
2. The driver normally tries to queue both the top and bottom fields
at the same time (see bttv_irq_next_video()). It tries to sort out
top vs bottom by looking at the field type for the next 2 available
buffers and assigning them appropriately.
3. However the bttv driver *always* actually processes the top field
first. There's even an interrupt set aside for specifically
recognizing when the top field has been processed so that it can be
marked done even while the bottom field is still being DMAed.
Given all of the above, if one gets into a situation where
bttv_irq_next_video() gets entered when the first available buffer has
been pre-associated as a bottom field, then the function is going to
process the buffers out of order. That first available buffer will be
put into the bottom field slot and the buffer after that will be put
into the top field slot. Problem is, since the top field is always
processed first by the driver, then that second buffer (the one after
the first available buffer) will be the first one to be finished.
Because of the strict fifo handling of all video buffers, then that
top field won't be seen by the app until after the bottom field is
also processed. Worse still, the app will get back the
chronologically later bottom field first, *before* the top field is
received. The buffer's timestamps will even be backwards.
While not fatal to most TV apps, this behavior can subtlely degrade
userspace deinterlacing (probably will cause jitter). That's probably
why it has gone unnoticed. But it will also cause serious problems if
the app in question discards all but the latest received buffer (a
latency minimizing tactic) - causing one field to only ever be
displayed since the other is now always late. Unfortunately once you
get into this state, you're stuck this way - because having consumed
two buffers, now the next time around the "first" available buffer
will again be a bottom field and the same thing happens.
How can we get into this state? In a perfect world, where there's
always a few free buffers queued to the driver, it should be
impossible. However if something disrupts streaming, e.g. if the
userspace app can't queue free buffers fast enough for a moment due
perhaps to a CPU scheduling glitch, then the driver can get
momentarily starved and some number of fields will be dropped. That's
OK. But if an odd number of fields get dropped, then that "first"
available buffer might be the bottom field and now we're stuck...
This patch fixes that problem by deliberately only setting up a single
field for one frame if we don't get a top field as the first available
buffer. By purposely skipping the other field, then we only handle a
single buffer thus bringing things back into proper sync (i.e. top
field first) for the next frame. To do this we just drop the few
lines in bttv_irq_next_video() that attempt to set up the second
buffer when that second buffer isn't for the bottom field.
This is definitely a problem in when in V4L2_FIELD_ALTERNATE mode. In
the other modes this change either has no effect or doesn't harm
things any further anyway.

While having tda18271 module set with debug=17 (cal & info prints) and
cal=0 (delay calibration process until first use) - I discovered that
during the calibration process, if the frequency test for
69750000
returned a bcal of 0 (see tda18721-fe.c in tda18271_powerscan func) that
the tuner wouldn't be able to pickup any of the frequencies in the range
(all the other frequencies bands returned bcal=1). I spent some time
going over the code and the NXP's tda18271 spec (ver.4 of it i think) and
adding a lot of debug prints and walking/stepping through the calibration
process. I found that when the powerscan fails to find a frequency, the
rf calibration is not run and the default value is supposed to be used in
its place (pulled from the RF_CAL_map table) - but something was getting
goofed up there.
Now, my c coding skills are very rusty, but i think root of the problem is
a signedness issue with the math operation for calculating the rf_a1 and
rf_a2 values in tda18271_rf_tracking_filters_init func, which results in
values like 20648 for rf_a1 (when it should probably have a value like 0,
or so slightly negative that it should be zero - this bad value for rf_a1
would in turn makes the approx calc within
tda18271c2_rf_tracking_filters_correction go out of whack). The simplest
solution i found was to explicitly convert the signedness of the
denominator to avoid the implicit conversion. The values placed into the
u32 rf_freq array should never exceed about 900mhz, so i think the s32 max
value shouldn't be an issue in this case.
I've tested it out a little, and even when i get a bcal=0 with the
modified code, the default calibration value gets used, rf_a1 is zero, and
the tuner seems to lock on the stream and mythtv seems to play it fine.

a reads a sector s and goes to idle window and wakeup b. b reads sector
s+1, since in current implementation, cfq_should_preempt() thinks a and

Correct nr_processes() when CPUs have been unplugged
nr_processes() returns the sum of the per cpu counter process_counts for
all online CPUs. This counter is incremented for the current CPU on
fork() and decremented for the current CPU on exit(). Since a process
does not necessarily fork and exit on the same CPU the process_count for
an individual CPU can be either positive or negative and effectively has
no meaning in isolation.
Therefore calculating the sum of process_counts over only the online
CPUs omits the processes which were started or stopped on any CPU which
has since been unplugged. Only the sum of process_counts across all
possible CPUs has meaning.
The only caller of nr_processes() is proc_root_getattr() which
calculates the number of links to /proc as
stat->nlink = proc_root.nlink + nr_processes();
You don't have to be all that unlucky for the nr_processes() to return a
negative value leading to a negative number of links (or rather, an
apparently enormous number of links). If this happens then you can get
failures where things like "ls /proc" start to fail because they got an
-EOVERFLOW from some stat() call.
Example with some debugging inserted to show what goes on:
# ps haux|wc -l
nr_processes: CPU0: 90
nr_processes: CPU1: 1030
nr_processes: CPU2: -900
nr_processes: CPU3: -136
nr_processes: TOTAL: 84
proc_root_getattr. nlink 12 + nr_processes() 84 = 96
84
# echo 0 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# ps haux|wc -l
nr_processes: CPU0: 85
nr_processes: CPU2: -901
nr_processes: CPU3: -137
nr_processes: TOTAL: -953
proc_root_getattr. nlink 12 + nr_processes() -953 = -941

# stat /proc/
nr_processes: CPU0: 84

I'm not 100% convinced that the per_cpu regions remain valid for offline
CPUs, although my testing suggests that they do. If not then I think the
correct solution would be to aggregate the process_count for a given CPU
into a global base value in cpu_down().
This bug appears to pre-date the transition to git and it looks like it
may even have been present in linux-2.6.0-test7-bk3 since it looks like
the code Rusty patched in http://lwn.net/Articles/64773/ was already
wrong.

PM / yenta: Split resume into early and late parts (rev. 4)
Commit
0c570cdeb8fdfcb354a3e9cd81bfc6a09c19de0c
(PM / yenta: Fix cardbus suspend/resume regression) caused resume to
fail on systems with two CardBus bridges. While the exact nature
of the failure is not known at the moment, it can be worked around by
splitting the yenta resume into an early part, executed during the
early phase of resume, that will only resume the socket and power it
up if there was a card in it during suspend, and a late part,
executed during "regular" resume, that will carry out all of the
remaining yenta resume operations.
Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14334, which is a
listed regression from 2.6.31.

When nilfs flushes out dirty data to reduce memory pressure, creation
