Subject: [PATCH] x86: add a crc32 checksum to the kernel image.
Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Cc: Thomas Gleixner [EMAIL
. This inversion changes the
CRC of the entire image (body + CRC) from all-zero to a fixed non-zero value.
(To be precise, to the (non-inverted) CRC of 0x.)
I didn't know the precise details of why you might invert it, thanks for
the info.

surrounded by #ifdef
UNITTEST which might once have worked but now there is far too much
kernel gunk in there (as you might expect).
If I can work up the enthusiasm I might break out the core algorithm
into a separate file that can be used in both the kernel and userspace.

A useful tip for getting a backtrace out of a crashed Xen guest is to
set on_crash=preserve in your domain config. Then once the crash has
happened you can use /usr/lib/xen/bin/xenctx -s System.map domid
where System.map is the guest kernel System.map.

My question is : It seems that the
implementation of doors is not very complex in Open Solaris
Is there a reason that the doors mechanism was not
adopted by the linux kernel?

a higher probability of being fixed.
This looks like it may be a kernel bug that Jeff Moyer and I have been
working on. I'm testing now.
It may be better to update to a later kernel so I don't have to port the
patch to several different kernels. Is that possible?

Sure, 2.6.20 or -git?
2.6.20 has all

but wouldn't the
right answer be for the original kernel to unmap the shared info on
kexec? Or maybe remap it up to some high/reserved address? Can it read
the original address used by hvmloader at start of day and reuse that?

My main concern with this series of patches is they make it harder to

We need to be sure there is something there which signals running under
Xen in the general sense too so we can detect it early on. Perhaps
something explicitly for that purpose or perhaps one of these required
items could serve as a key.

I think the simplest fix would be to add a 'goto' after the assignment
to iinfo-i_lenAlloc, bypassing the call to udf_extend_file().

If the new size is larger than the old size and the old file data was
stored in the ICB (iinfo-i_alloc_type == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB) and the
new size still fits in the ICB, skip the call to udf_extend_file() as it
does not handle this i_alloc_type value (it calls BUG()).

Hi folks,

should either return -EFAULT or work out the partial amount successfully
read (as long as it is greater than zero) and return that.

: nothing special here. Just call
blockdev_direct_IO() from our new udf_direct_IO() handler and tidy up
any blocks instantiated outside i_size on error. This is pretty
standard.
Also change the whitespace in udf_aops and udf_adinicb_aops to make them
a bit neater.

Give me a little
