NCR devices are terminally broken by design -- they claim themselves to contain
proper input applications in their HID report descriptor, but behave very badly
if treated in standard way.
According to NCR developers, the devices get confused when queried for reports
in a standard way, rendering them unusable.
NCR is shipping application called "RPSL" that can be used to drive these
devices through hiddev, under the assumption that in-kernel driver doesn't
perform initial report query.
If it does, neither in-kernel nor hiddev-based driver can operate with these
devices any more.
Introduce a quirk that skips the report query for all NCR devices. The previous
NOGET quirk was wrong and had been introduced because I misunderstood the nature
of brokenness of these devices.
When the "rsize=" or "wsize=" mount options are not specified,
text-based mounts have slightly different behavior than legacy binary
mounts. Text-based mounts use the smaller of the server's maximum
and the client's maximum, but binary mounts use the smaller of the
server's _preferred_ size and the client's maximum.
This difference is actually pretty subtle. Most servers advertise
the same value as their maximum and their preferred transfer size, so
the end result is the same in most cases.
The reason for this difference is that for text-based mounts, if
r/wsize are not specified, they are set to the largest value supported
by the client. For legacy mounts, the values are set to zero if these
options are not specified.
nfs_server_set_fsinfo() can negotiate the transfer size defaults
correctly in any case. There's no need to specify any particular
value as default in the text-based option parsing logic.
Note that nfs4 doesn't use nfs_server_set_fsinfo(), but the mount.nfs4
command does set rsize and wsize to 0 if the user didn't specify these
options. So, make the same change for text-based NFSv4 mounts.

Prior to 1f82de10 we always initialized the upper 32bits of the
prefetchable memory window, regardless of the address range used.
Now we only touch it for a >32bit address, which means the upper32
registers remain whatever the BIOS initialized them too.
It's valid for the BIOS to set the upper32 base/limit to
0xffffffff/0x00000000, which makes us program prefetchable ranges
like 0xffffffffabc00000 - 0x00000000abc00000
Revert the chunk of 1f82de10 that made this conditional so we always
write the upper32 registers and remove now unused pref_mem64 variable.

The dynamic tick allows the kernel to sleep for periods longer than a
single tick, but it does not limit the sleep time currently. In the
worst case the kernel could sleep longer than the wrap around time of
the time keeping clock source which would result in losing track of
time.
Prevent this by limiting it to the safe maximum sleep time of the
current time keeping clock source. The value is calculated when the
clock source is registered.

Add proper suspend/resume code for Juli@ cards. Based on ice1724
suspend/resume work of Igor Chernyshev.
Fixes bug https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=4413
Tested on linux-2.6.31.6
UEFI standard (version 2.3, May 2009, 5.3.1 GUID Format overview, page
95) defines that LBA is always based on the logical block size. It
means bdev_logical_block_size() (aka BLKSSZGET) for Linux.
This patch removes static sector size from EFI GPT parser.
The problem is reproducible with the latest GNU Parted:
The size of EFI GPT header is not static, but whole sector is
allocated for the header. The HeaderSize field must be greater
than 92 (= sizeof(struct gpt_header) and must be less than or
equal to the logical block size.
It means we have to read whole sector with the header, because the
header crc32 checksum is calculated according to HeaderSize.
For more details see UEFI standard (version 2.3, May 2009):

commit d6d3f08b0fd998b647a05540cedd11a067b72867
(netfilter: xtables: conntrack match revision 2) does break the
v1 conntrack match iptables-save output in a subtle way.
Problem is as follows:
up = kmalloc(sizeof(*up), GFP_KERNEL);
[..]
/*
* The strategy here is to minimize the overhead of v1 matching,
* by prebuilding a v2 struct and putting the pointer into the
* v1 dataspace.
*/
memcpy(up, info, offsetof(typeof(*info), state_mask));
[..]
*(void **)info = up;
As the v2 struct pointer is saved in the match data space,
it clobbers the first structure member (->origsrc_addr).
Because the _v1 match function grabs this pointer and does not actually
look at the v1 origsrc, run time functionality does not break.
But iptables -nvL (or iptables-save) cannot know that v1 origsrc_addr
has been overloaded in this way:
(128.173... is the address to the v2 match structure).
To fix this, we take advantage of the fact that the v1 and v2 structures
are identical with exception of the last two structure members (u8 in v1,
u16 in v2).
We extract them as early as possible and prevent the v2 matching function
from looking at those two members directly.

The handling of devices which can be used as per cpu device and as a

In free_unmap_area_noflush(), va->flags is marked as VM_LAZY_FREE first, and
then vmap_lazy_nr is increased atomically.
But, in __purge_vmap_area_lazy(), while traversing of vmap_are_list, nr
is counted by checking VM_LAZY_FREE is set to va->flags. After counting
the variable nr, kernel reads vmap_lazy_nr atomically and checks a
BUG_ON condition whether nr is greater than vmap_lazy_nr to prevent
vmap_lazy_nr from being negative.
The problem is that, if interrupted right after marking VM_LAZY_FREE,
increment of vmap_lazy_nr can be delayed. Consequently, BUG_ON
condition can be met because nr is counted more than vmap_lazy_nr.
It is highly probable when vmalloc/vfree are called frequently. This
scenario have been verified by adding delay between marking VM_LAZY_FREE
and increasing vmap_lazy_nr in free_unmap_area_noflush().
Even the vmap_lazy_nr is for checking high watermark, it never be the
strict watermark. Although the BUG_ON condition is to prevent
vmap_lazy_nr from being negative, vmap_lazy_nr is signed variable. So,
it could go down to negative value temporarily.
Consequently, removing the BUG_ON condition is proper.
Remove entry for 2770:915d (usb digital camera with mass storage

problem with the device's reported size (I think). I'm pretty sure it
was originally added for a reason, so I'm not sure removing it won't
cause other problems to reappear. Also, I should note that this
unusual_devs.h entry was present (and activating workarounds) in

There exist multiple DDC buses for the SDVO cards with multiple outputs.
When we can't get the EDID by using the select DDC bus, we can try the other
possible DDC bus to see whether the EDID can be obtained.
For some SDVO cards based on conexant chip, we can't read the EDID if
we don't read the response after issuing SDVO DDC bus switch
command.
From the SDVO spec once when another I2C transaction is finished after
completing the I2C transaction of issuing the bus switch command, it
will be switched back to the SDVO internal state again. So we can't
initiate a new I2C transaction to read the response after issuing the
DDC bus switch command. Instead we should issue DDC bus switch command
and read the response in the same I2C transaction.

This patch (as1330) fixes a bug in khbud's handling of remote
wakeups. When a device sends a remote-wakeup request, the parent hub
(or the host controller driver, for directly attached devices) begins
the resume sequence and notifies khubd when the sequence finishes. At
this point the port's SUSPEND feature is automatically turned off.
However the device needs an additional 10-ms resume-recovery time
(TRSMRCY in the USB spec). Khubd does not wait for this delay if the
SUSPEND feature is off, and as a result some devices fail to behave
properly following a remote wakeup. This patch adds the missing
delay to the remote-wakeup path.
It also extends the resume-signalling delay used by ehci-hcd and
uhci-hcd from 20 ms (the value in the spec) to 25 ms (the value we use
for non-remote-wakeup resumes). The extra time appears to help some
devices.
This patch (as1321) fixes a problem with EHCI and UHCI root-hub
suspends: If the suspend occurs while a port is trying to resume, the
resume doesn't finish and simply gets lost. When remote wakeup is
enabled, this is undesirable behavior.
The patch checks first to see if any port resumes are in progress, and
if they are then it fails the root-hub suspend with -EBUSY.

This patch (as1320) fixes two problems related to interrupt-URB
scheduling in ehci-hcd.
URBs with an interval of 2 or 4 microframes aren't handled.
For the time being, the patch reduces to interval to 1 uframe.
URBs are constrained to have an interval no larger than 1024
frames by usb_submit_urb(). But some EHCI controllers allow
use of a schedule as short as 256 frames; for these
controllers we may have to decrease the interval to the
actual schedule length.
The second problem isn't very significant since few devices expose
interrupt endpoints with an interval larger than 256 frames. But the
first problem is critical; it will prevent the kernel from working
with devices having interrupt intervals of 2 or 4 uframes.
Memory allocations with GFP_KERNEL can cause IO to a storage
device which can fail resulting in a need to reset the device.
Therefore GFP_KERNEL cannot be safely used between usb_lock_device()
and usb_unlock_device(). Replace by GFP_NOIO.

Relax stable-sched-clock architectures to not save/disable/restore
hardirqs in cpu_clock().
The background is that I was trying to resolve a sparc64 perf
issue when I discovered this problem.
On sparc64 I implement pseudo NMIs by simply running the kernel
at IRQ level 14 when local_irq_disable() is called, this allows
performance counter events to still come in at IRQ level 15.
This doesn't work if any code in an NMI handler does
local_irq_save() or local_irq_disable() since the "disable" will
kick us back to cpu IRQ level 14 thus letting NMIs back in and
we recurse.
The only path which that does that in the perf event IRQ
handling path is the code supporting frequency based events. It
uses cpu_clock().
cpu_clock() simply invokes sched_clock() with IRQs disabled.
And that's a fundamental bug all on it's own, particularly for
the HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK case. NMIs can thus get into the
sched_clock() code interrupting the local IRQ disable code
sections of it.
Furthermore, for the not-HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK case, the IRQ
disabling done by cpu_clock() is just pure overhead and
completely unnecessary.
So the core problem is that sched_clock() is not NMI safe, but
we are invoking it from NMI contexts in the perf events code
(via cpu_clock()).
A less important issue is the overhead of IRQ disabling when it
isn't necessary in cpu_clock().
CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK architectures are not
affected by this patch.

The cardbus code creates PCI devices without ever going through the
necessary fixup bits and pieces that normal PCI devices go through.
There's in fact a commented out call to pcibios_fixup_bus() in there,
it's commented because ... it doesn't work.
I could make pcibios_fixup_bus() do the right thing on powerpc easily
but I felt it cleaner instead to provide a specific hook pci_fixup_cardbus
for which a weak empty implementation is provided by the PCI core.
This fixes cardbus on powerbooks and probably all other PowerPC
platforms which was broken completely for ever on some platforms and
since 2.6.31 on others such as PowerBooks when we made the DMA ops
mandatory (since those are setup by the fixups).

EDAC MC0: INTERNAL ERROR: channel-b out of range (4 >= 4)
Kernel panic - not syncing: EDAC MC0: Uncorrected Error (XEN) Domain 0 crashed: 'noreboot' set - not rebooting.
This happens because FERR_NF_FBD bit 28 is not updated on i5000. Due to
that, both bits 28 and 29 may be equal to one, returning channel = 3. As
this value is invalid, EDAC core generates the panic.
Chris McDermott from IBM confirmed that hurricane chipset in IBM summit
platforms doesn't support logical flat mode. Irrespective of the other
things like apic_id's, total number of logical cpu's, Linux kernel
should default to physical mode for this system.
The 32-bit kernel does so using the OEM checks for the IBM summit
platform. Add a similar OEM platform check for the 64bit kernel too.
Otherwise the linux kernel boot can hang on this platform under certain
bios/platform settings.

commit f2260e6b (page allocator: update NR_FREE_PAGES only as necessary)
made one minor regression. if __rmqueue() was failed, NR_FREE_PAGES stat
go wrong. this patch fixes it.
A) The current futex code doesn't handle private file mappings properly.
get_futex_key() uses PageAnon() to distinguish file and
anon, which can cause the following bad scenario:
1) thread-A call futex(private-mapping, FUTEX_WAIT), it
sleeps on file mapping object.
2) thread-B writes a variable and it makes it cow.
3) thread-B calls futex(private-mapping, FUTEX_WAKE), it
wakes up blocked thread on the anonymous page. (but it's nothing)
B) Current futex code doesn't handle zero page properly.
Read mode get_user_pages() can return zero page, but current
futex code doesn't handle it at all. Then, zero page makes
infinite loop internally.
The solution is to use write mode get_user_page() always for
page lookup. It prevents the lookup of both file page of private
mappings and zero page.
Performance concerns:
Probaly very little, because glibc always initialize variables
for futex before to call futex(). It means glibc users never see
the overhead of this patch.
Compatibility concerns:
This patch has few compatibility issues. After this patch,
FUTEX_WAIT require writable access to futex variables (read-only
mappings makes EFAULT). But practically it's not a problem,
glibc always initalizes variables for futexes explicitly - nobody
uses read-only mappings.
Add check if APIC is not disabled since thermal
monitoring depends on it. As only apic gets disabled
we should not try to install "thermal monitor" vector,
print out that thermal monitoring is enabled and etc...
Note that "Intel Correct Machine Check Interrupts" already
has such a check.
Also I decided to not add cpu_has_apic check into
mcheck_intel_therm_init since even if it'll call apic_read on
disabled apic -- it's safe here and allow us to save a few code
bytes.
queue_sector_alignment_offset returned the wrong value which caused
partitions to report an incorrect alignment_offset. Since offset
calculation is needed several places it has been split into a separate
helper function.

Current mem_cgroup_force_empty() only ensures mem->res.usage == 0 on
success. But this doesn't guarantee memcg's LRU is really empty, because
there are some cases in which !PageCgrupUsed pages exist on memcg's LRU.
For example:
- Pages can be uncharged by its owner process while they are on LRU.
- race between mem_cgroup_add_lru_list() and __mem_cgroup_uncharge_common().
So there can be a case in which the usage is zero but some of the LRUs are not empty.
OTOH, mem_cgroup_del_lru_list(), which can be called asynchronously with
rmdir, accesses the mem_cgroup, so this access can cause a problem if it
races with rmdir because the mem_cgroup might have been freed by rmdir.
Actually, I saw a bug which seems to be caused by this race.
The problem here is pages on LRU may contain pointer to stale memcg. To
make res->usage to be 0, all pages on memcg must be uncharged or moved to
another(parent) memcg. Moved page_cgroup have already removed from
original LRU, but uncharged page_cgroup contains pointer to memcg withou
PCG_USED bit. (This asynchronous LRU work is for improving performance.)
If PCG_USED bit is not set, page_cgroup will never be added to memcg's
LRU. So, about pages not on LRU, they never access stale pointer. Then,
what we have to take care of is page_cgroup _on_ LRU list. This patch
fixes this problem by making mem_cgroup_force_empty() visit all LRUs
before exiting its loop and guarantee there are no pages on its LRU.
Fix divide by zero and broken output. Commit 600ce1a0fa ("fix clock
setting for Samsung SoC Framebuffer") introduced a mandatory refresh
parameter to the platform data for the S3C framebuffer but did not
introduce any validation code, causing existing platforms (none of which
have refresh set) to divide by zero whenever the framebuffer is
configured, generating warnings and unusable output.
Ben Dooks noted several problems with the patch:
- The platform data supplies the pixclk directly and should already
have taken care of the refresh rate.
- The addition of a window ID parameter doesn't help since only the
root framebuffer can control the pixclk.
- pixclk is specified in picoseconds (rather than Hz) as the patch
assumed.
and suggests reverting the commit so do that. Without fixing this no
mainline user of the driver will produce output.

Since commit 7e790dd5fc937bc8d2400c30a05e32a9e9eef276 ("inotify: fix
error paths in inotify_update_watch") inotify changed the manor in which
it gave watch descriptors back to userspace. Previous to this commit
inotify acted like the following:
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
inotify_rm_watch(X, 1);
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 2
but after this patch inotify would return watch descriptors like so:
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
inotify_rm_watch(X, 1);
inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1
which I saw as equivalent to opening an fd where
open(file) = 1;
close(1);
open(file) = 1;
seemed perfectly reasonable. The issue is that quite a bit of userspace
apparently relies on the behavior in which watch descriptors will not be
quickly reused. KDE relies on it, I know some selinux packages rely on
it, and I have heard complaints from other random sources such as debian
bug 558981.
Although the man page implies what we do is ok, we broke userspace so
this patch almost reverts us to the old behavior. It is still slightly
racey and I have patches that would fix that, but they are rather large
and this will fix it for all real world cases. The race is as follows:
- task1 creates a watch and blocks in idr_new_watch() before it updates
the hint.
- task2 creates a watch and updates the hint.
- task1 updates the hint with it's older wd
- task removes the watch created by task2
- task adds a new watch and will reuse the wd originally given to task2
it requires moving some locking around the hint (last_wd) but this should
solve it for the real world and be -stable safe.
As a side effect this patch papers over a bug in the lib/idr code which
is causing a large number WARN's to pop on people's system and many
reports in kerneloops.org. I'm working on the root cause of that idr
bug seperately but this should make inotify immune to that issue.
