audit rule additions containing "-F auid!=4294967295" were failing
with EINVAL because of a regression caused by e1760bd.
Apparently some userland audit rule sets want to know if loginuid uid
has been set and are using a test for auid != 4294967295 to determine
that.
In practice that is a horrible way to ask if a value has been set,
because it relies on subtle implementation details and will break
every time the uid implementation in the kernel changes.
So add a clean way to test if the audit loginuid has been set, and
silently convert the old idiom to the cleaner and more comprehensible
new idiom.
RGB notes: In upstream, audit_rule_to_entry has been refactored out.
This is patch is already upstream in functionally the same form in
commit 780a7654cee8d61819512385e778e4827db4bfbc . The decimal constant
was cast to unsigned to quiet GCC 4.6 32-bit architecture warnings.

never match (unless uname literally prints out "parsic*"). Rewrite to
use a pattern matching operator so that NATIVE is set to 1 on parisc.
The "b" branch instruction used in the fork_like macro only can handle

Currently, race conditions exist in the handling of TLB interruptions in
entry.S. In particular, dirty bit updates can be lost if an accessed
interruption occurs just after the dirty bit interruption on a different
cpu. Lost dirty bit updates result in user pages not being flushed and
general system instability. This change adds lock and unlock macros to
synchronize all PTE and TLB updates done in entry.S. As a result,
userspace stability is significantly improved.

Helge and I have found that we have a kernel stack overflow problem
which causes a variety of random failures.
Currently, we re-enable interrupts when returning from an external
interrupt incase we need to schedule or delivery
signals. As a result, a potentially unlimited number of interrupts
can occur while we are running on the kernel
stack. It is very limited in space (currently, 16k). This change
defers enabling interrupts until we have
actually decided to schedule or delivery signals. This only occurs
when we about to return to userspace. This
limits the number of interrupts on the kernel stack to one. In other
cases, interrupts remain disabled until the
final return from interrupt (rfi).

When a 32 bit version of ipmitool is used on a 64 bit kernel, the
ipmi_devintf code fails to correctly acquire ipmi_mutex. This results in
incomplete data being retrieved in some cases, or other possible failures.
Add a wrapper around compat_ipmi_ioctl() to take ipmi_mutex to fix this.
The EC driver works abnormally with IBF flag always set.
IBF means "The host has written a byte of data to the command
or data port, but the embedded controller has not yet read it".
If IBF is set in the EC status and not cleared, this will cause
all subsequent EC requests to fail with a timeout error.
Change the EC driver so that it doesn't refuse to restart a
transaction if IBF is set in the status. Also increase the
number of transaction restarts to 5, as it turns out that 2
is not sufficient in some cases.
This bug happens on several different machines (Asus V1S,
Dell Latitude E6530, Samsung R719, Acer Aspire 5930G,
Sony Vaio SR19VN and others).

Fix two issues in OOO commands processing done at iscsit_attach_ooo_cmdsn.
Handle command serial numbers wrap around by using iscsi_sna_lt and not regular comparisson.
The routine iterates until it finds an entry whose serial number is greater than the serial number of
the new one, thus the new entry should be inserted before that entry and not after.
The ffmpeg benchmark in the phoronix test suite has threads on
multiple cores that rely on the progress on of threads on other cores
and ping pong back and forth fast enough to make the core appear less
busy than it "should" be. If the core has been at minimum p-state for
a while bump the pstate up to kick the core to see if it is in this
ping pong state. If the core is truly idle the p-state will be
reduced at the next sample time. If the core makes more progress it
will send more work to the thread bringing both threads out of the
ping pong scenario and the p-state will be selected normally.
This fixes a performance regression of approximately 30%

The kernel crashes while resuming from AFTR idle mode. It happens
because L2 cache was not going into retention state.
This patch configures the USE_RETENTION bit of ARM_L2_OPTION register
so that it does not depend on MANUAL_L2RSTDISABLE_CONTROL of
ARM_COMMON_OPTION register for L2RSTDISABLE signal.
If gcc (e.g. 4.1.2) decides not to inline vsock_init_tables(), this will
cause a section mismatch:
WARNING: net/vmw_vsock/vsock.o(.text+0x1bc): Section mismatch in reference from the function __vsock_core_init() to the function .init.text:vsock_init_tables()
The function __vsock_core_init() references
the function __init vsock_init_tables().
This is often because __vsock_core_init lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of vsock_init_tables is wrong.
This may cause crashes if VSOCKETS=y and VMWARE_VMCI_VSOCKETS=m.

A race condition exists when registering the first watchdog device.
Sequence of events:
- watchdog_register_device calls watchdog_dev_register
- watchdog_dev_register creates the watchdog misc device by calling
misc_register.
At that time, the matching character device (/dev/watchdog0) does not yet
exist, and old_wdd is not set either.
- Userspace gets an event and opens /dev/watchdog
- watchdog_open is called and sets wdd = old_wdd, which is still NULL,
and tries to dereference it. This causes the kernel to panic.
Seen with systemd trying to open /dev/watchdog immediately after
it was created.
pdc_desc_get() is called from pd_prep_slave_sg, and the function is
called from interrupt context(e.g. Uart driver "pch_uart.c").
In fact, I saw kernel error message.
So, GFP_ATOMIC must be used not GFP_NOIO.
We forget to call dev_put() on error path in xfrm6_fill_dst(),
its caller doesn't handle this.

We have seen multiple NULL dereferences in __inet6_lookup_established()
After analysis, I found that inet6_sk() could be NULL while the
check for sk_family == AF_INET6 was true.
Bug was added in linux-2.6.29 when RCU lookups were introduced in UDP
and TCP stacks.
Once an IPv6 socket, using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is inserted in a hash
table, we no longer can clear pinet6 field.
This patch extends logic used in commit fcbdf09d9652c891
("net: fix nulls list corruptions in sk_prot_alloc")
TCP/UDP/UDPLite IPv6 protocols provide their own .clear_sk() method
to make sure we do not clear pinet6 field.
At socket clone phase, we do not really care, as cloning the parent (non
NULL) pinet6 is not adding a fatal race.

I'm using following script to trigger this:

while [ 1 ]
do
ip link add link e1 name macvtap0 type macvtap mode passthru
ip link set e1 up
ip link set macvtap0 up
IFINDEX=`ip link |grep macvtap0 | cut -f 1 -d ':'`

ip link del dev macvtap0
done
</script>
I run this script while "ping -f" is running on another machine to send
packets to e1 rx.
Reason of the panic is that list_first_entry() is blindly called in
macvlan_handle_frame() even if the list was empty. vlan is set to
incorrect pointer which leads to the crash.
I'm fixing this by protecting port->vlans list by rcu and by preventing
from getting incorrect pointer in case the list is empty.

This patch fixes race between inet_frag_lru_move() and inet_frag_lru_add()
which was introduced in commit 3ef0eb0db4bf92c6d2510fe5c4dc51852746f206
("net: frag, move LRU list maintenance outside of rwlock")
One cpu already added new fragment queue into hash but not into LRU.
Other cpu found it in hash and tries to move it to the end of LRU.
This leads to NULL pointer dereference inside of list_move_tail().
Another possible race condition is between inet_frag_lru_move() and
inet_frag_lru_del(): move can happens after deletion.
This patch initializes LRU list head before adding fragment into hash and
inet_frag_lru_move() doesn't touches it if it's empty.

Oops happened on this path:
ip_defrag() -> ip_frag_queue() -> inet_frag_lru_move() -> list_move_tail() -> __list_del_entry()

Jakub reported that it is fairly easy to trigger the BUG() macro
from user space with TPACKET_V3's RX_RING by just giving a wrong
header status flag. We already had a similar situation in commit 7f5c3e3a80e6654 (``af_packet: remove BUG statement in
tpacket_destruct_skb'') where this was the case in the TX_RING
side that could be triggered from user space. So really, don't use
BUG() or BUG_ON() unless there's really no way out, and i.e.
don't use it for consistency checking when there's user space
involved, no excuses, especially not if you're slapping the user
with WARN + dump_stack + BUG all at once. The two functions are
of concern:
Calls to prb_open_block() are guarded by ealier checks if block_status
is really TP_STATUS_KERNEL (racy!), but the first one BUG() is easily
triggable from user space. System behaves still stable after they are
removed. Also remove that yoda condition entirely, since it's already

It is easily reproducable by setting an MTU of 512 e. g. and sending

ping -s 1472 -c 1 -M do $SELF
from another box.
And this is because the rx->ax_skb is freed on error, but rx->ax_skb
is not reset, and the size is not reset to zero in this case.
And since the skb is added again to the usbnet->done skb queue it is
accessing already freed memory, resulting in the BUG when freeing a
2nd time. I therefore think the value 0x0000004000000001 show in the

- Currently they appear here:
/sys/devices/virtual/net/eth0 (standard ISA)
/sys/devices/virtual/net/eth1 (EISA)
- Rather, they should instead be here:
/sys/devices/isa/3c509.0/net/eth0 (standard ISA)

Linux immediately returns SYNACK on (spurious) SYN retransmits, but
keeps the SYNACK timer running independently. Thus the timer may
fire right after the SYNACK retransmit and causes a SYN-SYNACK
cross-fire burst.
Adopt the fast retransmit/recovery idea in established state by
re-arming the SYNACK timer after the fast (SYNACK) retransmit. The
timer may fire late up to 500ms due to the current SYNACK timer wheel,
but it's OK to be conservative when network is congested. Eric's new
listener design should address this issue.

efx_mcdi_get_board_cfg() uses a buffer for the firmware response that
is only large enough to hold subtypes for the originally defined set
of NVRAM partitions. Longer responses are truncated, and we may read
off the end of the buffer when copying out subtypes for additional
partitions. In particular, this can result in the MTD partition for
an FPGA bitfile being named e.g. 'eth5 sfc_fpga:00' when it should be
'eth5 sfc_fpga:01'. This means the firmware update tool (sfupdate)
can't tell which bitfile should be written to the partition.

The original line,
WREG_DAC(MGA1064_PIX_CLK_CTL_CLK_DIS, tmp);
wrote tmp into MGA1064_PIX_CLK_CTL_CLK_DIS, where
MGA1064_PIX_CLK_CTL_CLK_DIS is an offset into
MGA1064_PIX_CLK_CTL. Change the line to write properly into
MGA1064_PIX_CLK_CTL. There were other chunks of code nearby that use
the same pattern (but work correctly), so this patch updates them all
to use this new (slightly more efficient) write pattern. The WREG_DAC
macro was causing the DAC_INDEX register to be set to the same value
twice. WREG8(DAC_DATA, foo) takes advantage of the fact that DAC_INDEX
is already at the value we want.

Jake reported that since commit 1672c0e31917f49d31d30d79067103432bc20cc7
"mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status", he is unable to
connect to his AP, which is configured to use passive channel.
After switch to passive channel 4965 firmware drops any TX packet until
it receives beacon. Before commit 1672c0e3 we waited on channel and
retransmit packet after 200ms, that makes we receive beacon on the
meantime and association process succeed. New mac80211 behaviour cause
that any ASSOC frame fail immediately on iwl4965 and we can not
associate.
This patch restore old mac80211 behaviour for iwl4965, by removing
IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS feature. This feature will be
added again to iwl4965 driver, when different, more complex
workaround for this firmware issue, will be added to the driver.
Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could
happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can
handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and
refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This
patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will
handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.

The Tilera hypervisor shipped in releases up through MDE 4.1 launches
the client operating system (i.e. Linux) at privilege level 1 (PL1).
Starting with MDE 4.2, as part of the work to enable KVM, the
Tilera hypervisor launches Linux at PL2 instead.
This commit makes the KERNEL_PL option default to 2 for tilegx, while
still saying at 1 for tilepro, which doesn't have an updated hypervisor.
It also explains how and when you might want to choose another value.
In addition, we change a small buglet in the on-chip Ethernet driver,
where we were failing to use the KERNEL_PL constant in an API call.
To make the transition cleaner, this change also provides the updated
hv_init() API for the new hypervisor that supports announcing Linux's
compiled-in PL, so the hypervisor can generate a suitable error in the
case of a mismatched hypervisor and Linux binary.

This can be readily reproduced when putting the XO-4 in a loop where
it goes to sleep due to inactivity, but then wakes up due to an
incoming ping. The error is hit within an hour or two.
This issue happens when an interrupt comes in early while host sleep
is still activated. Driver handles this case by auto cancelling host
sleep. However is_suspended flag is still set which prevents any cmd
or data from being sent to firmware. Fix it by clearing is_suspended
flag in this path.

kexec calls memcpy() at a point where the task struct may have been
overwritten by the new kexec segments. If it has been overwritten
then when memcpy -> enable_altivec looks up current->thread.regs->msr
we get a cryptic oops or lockup.

The implementation of cmpxchg64() for the ARM v6 and v7 architecture
casts parameter 2 and 3 (the old and new 64bit values) to an unsigned
long before calling the atomic_cmpxchg64() function. This clears
the top 32 bits of the old and new values, resulting in the wrong
values being compare-exchanged. Luckily, this only appears to be used
for 64-bit sched_clock, which we don't (yet) have on ARM.

This can easily be triggered if a new CPU is added (via
ACPI hotplug mechanism) and from user-space you do:
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online
(or wait for UDEV to do it) on a newly appeared physical CPU.
The deadlock is that the "store_online" in drivers/base/cpu.c
takes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() lock, then calls "cpu_up".
"cpu_up" eventually ends up calling "save_mc_for_early"
which also takes the cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() lock.

Possible unsafe locking scenario:
In the case where we are allocating for a non-extent file,
we must limit the groups we allocate from to those below
2^32 blocks, and ext4_mb_regular_allocator() attempts to
do this initially by putting a cap on ngroups for the
subsequent search loop.
However, the initial target group comes in from the
allocation context (ac), and it may already be beyond
the artificially limited ngroups. In this case,
the limit
if (group == ngroups)
group = 0;
at the top of the loop is never true, and the loop will
run away.
Catch this case inside the loop and reset the search to
start at group 0.
Special preds are created when folding a series of preds that
can be done in serial. These are allocated in an ops field of
the pred structure. But they were never freed, causing memory
leaks.
Prarit reported a crash on CPU offline/online. The reason is that on
CPU down the NOHZ related per cpu data of the dead cpu is not cleaned
up. If at cpu online an interrupt happens before the per cpu tick
device is registered the irq_enter() check potentially sees stale data
and dereferences a NULL pointer.
Cleanup the data after the cpu is dead.

An inactive timer's base can refer to a offline cpu's base.
In the current code, cpu_base's lock is blindly reinitialized each
time a CPU is brought up. If a CPU is brought online during the period
that another thread is trying to modify an inactive timer on that CPU
with holding its timer base lock, then the lock will be reinitialized
under its feet. This leads to following SPIN_BUG().

As an example, this particular crash occurred when CPU #3 is executing
mod_timer() on an inactive timer whose base is refered to offlined CPU
#2. The code locked the timer_base corresponding to CPU #2. Before it
could proceed, CPU #2 came online and reinitialized the spinlock
corresponding to its base. Thus now CPU #3 held a lock which was
reinitialized. When CPU #3 finally ended up unlocking the old cpu_base
corresponding to CPU #2, we hit the above SPIN_BUG().

Allocation of per_cpu timer vector bases is done only once under
"tvec_base_done[]" check. In the current code, spinlock_initialization
of base->lock isn't under this check. When a CPU is up each time the
base lock is reinitialized. Move base spinlock initialization under
the check.
Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config,
which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid
uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause
problems for userland.
In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on
!ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time
twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect
of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be
zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the
/dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for
older applications.
While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile,
breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally
the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code
being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so
lets revert this change.

Jiri reported a regression in auditing of open(..., O_CREAT) syscalls.
In older kernels, creating a file with open(..., O_CREAT) created
audit_name records that looked like this:
Richard bisected to determine that the problems started with commit bfcec708, but the log messages have changed with some later
audit-related patches.
The problem is that this audit_inode call is passing in the parent of
the dentry being opened, but audit_inode is being called with the parent
flag false. This causes later audit_inode and audit_inode_child calls to
match the wrong entry in the audit_names list.
This patch simply sets the flag to properly indicate that this inode
represents the parent. With this, the audit_names entries are back to
looking like they did before.

Commit b05d8447e782 (audit: inline audit_syscall_entry to reduce
burden on archs) changed audit_syscall_entry to check for a dummy
context before calling __audit_syscall_entry. Unfortunately the dummy
context state is maintained in __audit_syscall_entry so once set it
never gets cleared, even if the audit rules change.
As a result, if there are no auditing rules when a process starts
then it will never be subject to any rules added later. x86 doesn't
see this because it has an assembly fast path that calls directly into
__audit_syscall_entry.
I noticed this issue when working on audit performance optimisations.
I wrote a set of simple test cases available at:
02_new_rule.py fails without the patch and passes with it. The
test case clears all rules, starts a process, adds a rule then
verifies the process produces a syscall audit record.

Some arrays synchronize their full non volatile cache when the sd driver sends
a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command. Unfortunately, they can have Terrabytes of this
and we send a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE for every barrier if an array reports it has a
writeback cache. This leads to massive slowdowns on journalled filesystems.
The fix is to allow userspace to turn off the writeback cache setting as a
temporary measure (i.e. without doing the MODE SELECT to write it back to the
device), so even though the device reported it has a writeback cache, the
user, knowing that the cache is non volatile and all they care about is
filesystem correctness, can turn that bit off in the kernel and avoid the
performance ruinous (and safety irrelevant) SYNCHRONIZE CACHE commands.
The way you do this is add a 'temporary' prefix when performing the usual
cache setting operations, so
echo temporary write through > /sys/class/scsi_disk/<disk>/cache_type
we would (this a build with DEBUG enabled) get to:
smpboot: ++++++++++++++++++++=_---CPU UP 1
.. snip..
smpboot: Stack at about ffff880074c0ff44
smpboot: CPU1: has booted.
and hang. The RCU mechanism would kick in an try to IPI the CPU1
but the IPIs (and all other interrupts) would never arrive at the
CPU1. At first glance at least. A bit digging in the hypervisor
trace shows that (using xenanalyze):
there is a pending event (subsequent debugging shows it is the IPI
from the VCPU0 when smpboot.c on VCPU1 has done
"set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true)") and the guest VCPU1 is
interrupted with the callback IPI (0xf3 aka 243) which ends up calling
__xen_evtchn_do_upcall.
The __xen_evtchn_do_upcall seems to do *something* but not acknowledge
the pending events. And the moment the guest does a 'cli' (that is the ffffffff81673254 in the log above) the hypervisor is invoked again to
inject the IPI (0xf3) to tell the guest it has pending interrupts.
This repeats itself forever.
The culprit was the per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) pointer. At the bootup
we set each per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) to point to the
shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] but later on use the VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info
to register per-CPU structures (xen_vcpu_setup).
This is used to allow events for more than 32 VCPUs and for performance
optimizations reasons.
When the user performs the VCPU hotplug we end up calling the
the xen_vcpu_setup once more. We make the hypercall which returns
-EINVAL as it does not allow multiple registration calls (and
already has re-assigned where the events are being set). We pick
the fallback case and set per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) to point to the
shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] (which is a good fallback during bootup).
However the hypervisor is still setting events in the register
per-cpu structure (per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info, cpu)).
As such when the events are set by the hypervisor (such as timer one),
and when we iterate in __xen_evtchn_do_upcall we end up reading stale
events from the shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] instead of the
per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info, cpu) structures. Hence we never acknowledge the
events that the hypervisor has set and the hypervisor keeps on reminding
us to ack the events which we never do.
The fix is simple. Don't on the second time when xen_vcpu_setup is
called over-write the per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) if it points to
per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info).
The error in lis3lv02_poweron() is harmless in the resume path, so
we should ignore it. It is inline with the other usages of lis3lv02_poweron()
and matches the 3.0 code for this routine. This patch is in suse git and
might have missed making it into the mainline.

The problem appears to be a regression that was introduced in commit 9a9c6478 "nfsd: make NFSv4 recovery client tracking options per net".
Prior to that commit, it was safe to pass a NULL net pointer to
nfsd4_client_tracking_exit in the legacy recdir case, and
legacy_recdir_name_error did so. After that comit, the net pointer must
be valid.
This patch just fixes legacy_recdir_name_error to pass in a valid net
pointer to that function.

Dave Hansen reported strange utime/stime values on his system:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/4/435
This happens because prev->stime value is bigger than rtime
value. Root of the problem are non-monotonic rtime values (i.e.
current rtime is smaller than previous rtime) and that should be
debugged and fixed.
But since problem did not manifest itself before commit 62188451f0d63add7ad0cd2a1ae269d600c1663d "cputime: Avoid
multiplication overflow on utime scaling", it should be threated
as regression, which we can easily fixed on cputime_adjust()
function.
For now, let's apply this fix, but further work is needed to fix
root of the problem.
Due to rounding in scale_stime(), for big numbers, scaled stime
values will grow in chunks. Since rtime grow in jiffies and we
calculate utime like below:
Here is patch, which adds Linus's cputime scaling algorithm to the
kernel.
This is a follow up (well, fix) to commit d9a3c9823a2e6a543eb7807fb3d15d8233817ec5 ("sched: Lower chances
of cputime scaling overflow") which commit tried to avoid
multiplication overflow, but did not guarantee that the overflow
would not happen.
Linus crated a different algorithm, which completely avoids the
multiplication overflow by dropping precision when numbers are
big.
It was tested by me and it gives good relative error of
scaled numbers. Testing method is described here:

Some users have reported that after running a process with
hundreds of threads on intensive CPU-bound loads, the cputime
of the group started to freeze after a few days.
This is due to how we scale the tick-based cputime against
the scheduler precise execution time value.
We add the values of all threads in the group and we multiply
that against the sum of the scheduler exec runtime of the whole
group.
This easily overflows after a few days/weeks of execution.
A proposed solution to solve this was to compute that multiplication
on stime instead of utime: 62188451f0d63add7ad0cd2a1ae269d600c1663d
("cputime: Avoid multiplication overflow on utime scaling")
The rationale behind that was that it's easy for a thread to
spend most of its time in userspace under intensive CPU-bound workload
but it's much harder to do CPU-bound intensive long run in the kernel.
This postulate got defeated when a user recently reported he was still
seeing cputime freezes after the above patch. The workload that
triggers this issue relates to intensive networking workloads where
most of the cputime is consumed in the kernel.
To reduce much more the opportunities for multiplication overflow,
lets reduce the multiplication factors to the remainders of the division
between sched exec runtime and cputime. Assuming the difference between
these shouldn't ever be that large, it could work on many situations.
This gets the same results as in the upstream scaling code except for
a small difference: the upstream code always rounds the results to
the nearest integer not greater to what would be the precise result.
The new code rounds to the nearest integer either greater or not
greater. In practice this difference probably shouldn't matter but
it's worth mentioning.
If this solution appears not to be enough in the end, we'll
need to partly revert back to the behaviour prior to commit 0cf55e1ec08bb5a22e068309e2d8ba1180ab4239
("sched, cputime: Introduce thread_group_times()")
Back then, the scaling was done on exit() time before adding the cputime
of an exiting thread to the signal struct. And then we'll need to
scale one-by-one the live threads cputime in thread_group_cputime(). The
drawback may be a slightly slower code on exit time.
This patch uses memalloc_noio_save to avoid a possible deadlock in
dm-bufio. (it could happen only with large block size, at most
PAGE_SIZE << MAX_ORDER (typically 8MiB).
__vmalloc doesn't fully respect gfp flags. The specified gfp flags are
used for allocation of requested pages, structures vmap_area, vmap_block
and vm_struct and the radix tree nodes.
However, the kernel pagetables are allocated always with GFP_KERNEL.
Thus the allocation of pagetables can recurse back to the I/O layer and
cause a deadlock.
This patch uses the function memalloc_noio_save to set per-process
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and the function memalloc_noio_restore to restore
it. When this flag is set, all allocations in the process are done with
implied GFP_NOIO flag, thus the deadlock can't happen.
This should be backported to stable kernels, but they don't have the
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and memalloc_noio_save/memalloc_noio_restore
functions. So, PF_MEMALLOC should be set and restored instead.
Fix a regression in the calculation of the stripe_width in the
dm stripe target which led to incorrect processing of device limits.
The stripe_width is the stripe device length divided by the number of
stripes. The group of commits in the range f14fa69 ("dm stripe: fix
size test") to eb850de ("dm stripe: support for non power of 2
chunksize") interfered with each other (a merging error) and led to the
stripe_width being set incorrectly to the stripe device length divided by
chunk_size * stripe_count.
For example, a stripe device's table with: 0 33553920 striped 3 512 ...
should result in a stripe_width of 11184640 (33553920 / 3), but due to
the bug it was getting set to 21845 (33553920 / (512 * 3)).
The impact of this bug is that device topologies that previously worked
fine with the stripe target are no longer considered valid. In
particular, there is a higher risk of seeing this issue if one of the
stripe devices has a 4K logical block size. Resulting in an error
message like this:
"device-mapper: table: 253:4: len=21845 not aligned to h/w logical block size 4096 of dm-1"
The fix is to swap the order of the divisions and to use a temporary
variable for the second one, so that width retains the intended
value.

In of_dma_controller_register() routine we are calling of_get_property() as an
parameter to be32_to_cpup(). In case the property doesn't exist we will get a
crash.
This patch changes this code to check if we got a valid property first and then
runs be32_to_cpup() on it.
The older Conexant codecs have up to two EAPDs and these are supposed
to be rather statically turned on. The new generic parser code
assumes the dynamic on/off per path usage, thus it resulted in the
silent output on some machines.
This patch fixes the problem by simply assuming the static EAPD on for
such old Conexant codecs as we did until 3.8 kernel.

The interrupt handler azx_interrupt will call azx_update_rirb,
which may call snd_hda_queue_unsol_event, snd_hda_queue_unsol_event
will dereference chip->bus pointer.
The problem is we alloc chip->bus in azx_codec_create
which will be called after we enable IRQ and enable unsolicited
event in azx_probe.
This will cause Oops due dereference NULL pointer. I meet it, good luck:)
[Rearranged the NULL check before the tracepoint and added another
NULL check of bus->workq -- tiwai]
The commit introduced a regression with AD codecs where the stream is
always clean up. Since the patch is just a minor optimization and
reverting the commit fixes the issue, let's just revert it.
Can only happen under these conditions: 1) The DSDT version is 1,
meaning integers are 32-bits. 2) The field is between 33 and 64
bits long.
It applies cleanly back to ACPICA 20100806+ (Linux v2.6.37+).

Commit 9fdca9df (spi: omap2-mcspi: convert to module_platform_driver)
broke the SPI display/panel driver probe on RX-51/N900. The exact cause is
not fully understood, but it seems to be related to the probe order. SPI
communication to the panel driver (spi1.2) fails unless the touchscreen
(spi1.0) has been probed/initialized before. When the omap2-mcspi driver
was converted to a platform driver, it resulted in that the devices are
probed immediately after the board registers them in the order they are
listed in the board file.
Fix the issue by moving the touchscreen before the panel in the SPI
device list.
It looks like the manual merge 0d69a3c731e120b05b7da9fb976830475a3fbc01 ("Merge
branches 'for-3.9/sony' and 'for-3.9/steelseries' into for-linus") accidentally
removed Sony RF receiver with USB product id 0x0374 from the "have special

This is an almost-undocumented instruction available in 32-bit mode.
I say "almost" undocumented because AMD documents it in their opcode
maps just to say that it is unavailable in 64-bit mode (sections
"A.2.1 One-Byte Opcodes" and "B.3 Invalid and Reassigned Instructions
in 64-Bit Mode").
It is roughly equivalent to "sbb %al, %al" except it does not
set the flags. Use fastop to emulate it, but do not use the opcode
directly because it would fail if the host is 64-bit!
