IBM reported a deadlock in select_parent(). This was found to be caused
by taking rename_lock when already locked when restarting the tree
traversal.
There are two cases when the traversal needs to be restarted:
1) concurrent d_move(); this can only happen when not already locked,
since taking rename_lock protects against concurrent d_move().
2) racing with final d_put() on child just at the moment of ascending
to parent; rename_lock doesn't protect against this rare race, so it
can happen when already locked.
Because of case 2, we need to be able to handle restarting the traversal
when rename_lock is already held. This patch fixes all three callers of
try_to_ascend().
IBM reported that the deadlock is gone with this patch.
[ I rewrote the patch to be smaller and just do the "goto again" if the
lock was already held, but credit goes to Miklos for the real work.

Sasha Levin has been running trinity in a KVM tools guest, and was able
to trigger the BUG_ON() at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:279 (verifying the range of
the memory type). The call trace showed that it was mtdchar_mmap() that
created an invalid remap_pfn_range().
The problem is that mtdchar_mmap() does various really odd and subtle
things with the vma page offset etc, and uses the wrong types (and the
wrong overflow) detection for it.
For example, the page offset may well be 32-bit on a 32-bit
architecture, but after shifting it up by PAGE_SHIFT, we need to use a
potentially 64-bit resource_size_t to correctly hold the full value.
Also, we need to check that the vma length plus offset doesn't overflow
before we check that it is smaller than the length of the mtdmap region.
This fixes things up and tries to make the code a bit easier to read.

The userspace part of UML uses the asm-offsets.h generator mechanism to
create definitions for UM_KERN_<LEVEL> that match the in-kernel
KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions.
As of commit 04d2c8c83d0e3ac5f78aeede51babb3236200112 ("printk: convert
the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"), KERN_<LEVEL> is no
longer expanded to the literal '"<LEVEL>"', but to '"\001" "LEVEL"', i.e.
it contains two parts.
However, the combo of DEFINE_STR() in
arch/x86/um/shared/sysdep/kernel-offsets.h and sed-y in Kbuild doesn't
support string literals consisting of multiple parts. Hence for all
UM_KERN_<LEVEL> definitions, only the SOH character is retained in the actual
definition, while the remainder ends up in the comment. E.g. in
include/generated/asm-offsets.h we get
#define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" /* "6" KERN_INFO */
instead of
#define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" "6" /* KERN_INFO */
This causes spurious '^A' output in some kernel messages:

To fix this:
- Move the mapping from UM_KERN_<LEVEL> to KERN_<LEVEL> from
arch/um/include/shared/common-offsets.h to
arch/um/include/shared/user.h, which is preincluded for all userspace
parts,
- Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h for all userspace parts, to
obtain the in-kernel KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions. This doesn't
violate the kernel/userspace separation, as include/linux/kern_levels.h
is self-contained and doesn't expose any other kernel internals.
- Remove the now unused STR() and DEFINE_STR() macros.

USB: Fix race condition when removing host controllers
This patch (as1607) fixes a race that can occur if a USB host

The usb_device_read() routine uses the bus->root_hub pointer to
determine whether or not the root hub is registered. The is not a
valid test, because the pointer is set before the root hub gets
registered and remains set even after the root hub is unregistered and
deallocated. As a result, usb_device_read() or usb_device_dump() can
access freed memory, causing an oops.
The patch changes the test to use the hcd->rh_registered flag, which
does get set and cleared at the appropriate times. It also makes sure
to hold the usb_bus_list_lock mutex while setting the flag, so that
usb_device_read() will become aware of new root hubs as soon as they

Add a safety net that will re-use the DM device's existing limits in the

respecting the hardware limits will reach the device.
DM recalculates queue limits based only on devices which currently exist
in the table. This creates a problem in the event all devices are
temporarily removed such as all paths being lost in multipath. DM will
reset the limits to the maximum permissible, which can then assemble
requests which exceed the limits of the paths when the paths are

sent to a path with lower limits, and will be retried without end by
multipath. This became a much bigger issue after v3.6 commit fe86cdcef

dm: handle requests beyond end of device instead of using BUG_ON
The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to
dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7ad950280e4b2208 ("dm: implement
REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly
drastic (but simple) response to this situation.
I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think
it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone
and original request with -EIO.
map_request() will assign the valid target returned by
dm_table_find_target to tio->ti. But when the target
isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't
called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().

dm thin: do not set discard_zeroes_data
The dm thin pool target claims to support the zeroing of discarded

The thin pool target will zero blocks when they are allocated if the
skip_block_zeroing feature is not specified. The block layer
may send a discard that only partly covers a block. If a thin pool
block is partially discarded then there is no guarantee that the
discarded data will get zeroed before it is accessed again.
Due to this, thin devices cannot claim discards will always zero data.

1) Eric Dumazet discovered and fixed what turned out to be a family of
bugs. These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need
to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not
expecting this possibility. The callers have cached pointers to the
packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to
continue using pskb_may_pull().
So they could end up reading garbage.
It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use
skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify
the linear SKB data area.
2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can

lib/flex_proportions.c: fix corruption of denominator in flexible proportions
When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative
values for the number of observed events.
This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a
result number of events is set to big *positive* number. From that
moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g. in division by
zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits.
This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's
3.6.0-rc6 based kernel.
Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period(). That makes
us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly)
thinking there are no events to age. That makes aging somewhat
inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

sb_edac: Avoid overflow errors at memory size calculation
Sandy bridge EDAC is calculating the memory size with overflow.
Basically, the size field and the integer calculation is using 32 bits.
More bits are needed, when the DIMM memories have high density.
The net result is that memories are improperly reported there, when
high-density DIMMs are used:
EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 591: mc#0: channel 0, dimm 0, -16384 Mb (-4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800

As the number of pages value is handled at the EDAC core as unsigned
ints, the driver shows the 16 GB memories at sysfs interface as 16760832
MB! The fix is simple: calculate the number of pages as unsigned 64-bits
integer.
After the patch, the memory size (16 GB) is properly detected:

c6x: use asm-generic/barrier.h
A recent patch in the linux-next tree caused a build failure on
C6X because C6X didn't define a read_barrier_depends() macro. C6X
does not support SMP and the architecture doesn't provide any
special memory ordering instructions, so it makes sense to just
use the generic barrier.h rather than patching the existing c6x
specific header.
The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory
and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper
NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they
run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will
need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more
NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those
patches are not yet present.
In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which
also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says:
"we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not
by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA).
This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but
will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of
the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see.
This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where
this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class)
so we just disable NUMA scanning by setting numa_off=1.

decrement a kobject reference count to free the allocated memory unless

means either out-of-bound read and possibly kfree(random number), or the
same mci->csrows[i] get freed once and again, and possibly double free
for the kfree(csr) in L427.
L426/L427: a kfree(csr->channels) is needed in between to avoid leaking the memory.
The buggy code was introduced by commit de3910eb ("edac: change the mem
allocation scheme to make Documentation/kobject.txt happy") in the 3.6-rc1
merge window. Fix it by freeing up resources in this order:
batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setups
If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected
and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this
neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one.
However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the
neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected
neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the
link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from
instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected
router.
This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to
permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups.
This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this
symmetry check.
Into function interface_set_mac_addr, the function tt_local_add was
invoked before updating dev->dev_addr. The new MAC address was not
tagged as NoPurge.

hwmon: (fam15h_power) Tweak runavg_range on resume
The quirk introduced with commit 00250ec90963b7ef6678438888f3244985ecde14 (hwmon: fam15h_power: fix
bogus values with current BIOSes) is not only required during driver
load but also when system resumes from suspend. The BIOS might set the
previously recommended (but unsuitable) initilization value for the
running average range register during resume.
