Commit 29c00b4a1d9e27 (rcu: Add event-tracing for RCU callback
invocation) added a regression in rcu_do_batch()
Under stress, RCU is supposed to allow to process all items in queue,
instead of a batch of 10 items (blimit), but an integer overflow makes
the effective limit being 1. So, unless there is frequent idle periods
(during which RCU ignores batch limits), RCU can be forced into a
state where it cannot keep up with the callback-generation rate,
eventually resulting in OOM.
This commit therefore converts a few variables in rcu_do_batch() from
int to long to fix this problem, along with the module parameters
controlling the batch limits.

Some devices (ex Nokia C7) simply don't respond at all when data is sent
to some of their USB interfaces. The data gets stuck in the TTYs queue
and sits there until close(2), which them blocks because closing_wait
defaults to 30 seconds (even though the fd is O_NONBLOCK). This is
rarely desired. Implement the standard mechanism to adjust closing_wait
and let applications handle it how they want to.

Ali reports that plugging a device into the Fresco Logic xHCI host with
PCI device ID 1400 produces an IRQ error:

Other early Fresco Logic host revisions don't support MSI, even though
their PCI config space claims they do. Extend the quirk to disabling
MSI to this chipset revision. Also enable the short transfer quirk,
since it's likely this revision also has that quirk, and it should be
harmless to enable.

This patch (as1636) is a partial workaround for a hardware bug
affecting OHCI controllers by NVIDIA at least, maybe others too. When
the controller retires a Transfer Descriptor, it is supposed to add
the TD onto the Done Queue. But sometimes this doesn't happen, with
the result that ohci-hcd never realizes the corresponding transfer has
finished. Symptoms can vary; a typical result is that USB audio stops
working after a while.
The patch works around the problem by recognizing that TDs are always
processed in order. Therefore, if a later TD is found on the Done
Queue than all the earlier TDs for the same endpoint must be finished
as well.
Unfortunately this won't solve the problem in cases where the missing
TD is the last one in the endpoint's queue. A complete fix would
require a signficant amount of change to the driver.

During resume from system suspend the 'data' field of
struct pnp_dev in pnpacpi_set_resources() may be a stale pointer,
due to removal of the associated ACPI device node object in the
previous suspend-resume cycle. This happens, for example, if a
dockable machine is booted in the docking station and then suspended
and resumed and suspended again. If that happens,
pnpacpi_build_resource_template() called from pnpacpi_set_resources()
attempts to use that pointer and crashes.
However, pnpacpi_set_resources() actually checks the device's ACPI
handle, attempts to find the ACPI device node object attached to it
and returns an error code if that fails, so in fact it knows what the
correct value of dev->data should be. Use this observation to update
dev->data with the correct value if necessary and dump a call trace
if that's the case (once).
We still need to fix the root cause of this issue, but preventing
systems from crashing because of it is an improvement too.

Add a quirk to correctly report battery capacity on 2010 and 2011
Lenovo Thinkpad models.
The affected models that I tested (x201, t410, t410s, and x220)
exhibit a problem where, when battery capacity reporting unit is mAh,
the values being reported are wrong. Pre-2010 and 2012 models appear
to always report in mWh and are thus unaffected. Also, in mid-2012
Lenovo issued a BIOS update for the 2011 models that fixes the issue
(tested on x220 with a post-1.29 BIOS). No such update is available
for the 2010 models, so those still need this patch.
Problem description: for some reason, the affected Thinkpads switch
the reporting unit between mAh and mWh; generally, mAh is used when a
laptop is plugged in and mWh when it's unplugged, although a
suspend/resume or rmmod/modprobe is needed for the switch to take
effect. The values reported in mAh are *always* wrong. This does
not appear to be a kernel regression; I believe that the values were
never reported correctly. I tested back to kernel 2.6.34, with
multiple machines and BIOS versions.
Simply plugging a laptop into mains before turning it on is enough to
reproduce the problem. Here's a sample /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info
from Thinkpad x220 (before a BIOS update) with a 4-cell battery:
present: yes
design capacity: 2886 mAh
last full capacity: 2909 mAh
battery technology: rechargeable
design voltage: 14800 mV
design capacity warning: 145 mAh
design capacity low: 13 mAh
cycle count: 0
capacity granularity 1: 1 mAh
capacity granularity 2: 1 mAh
model number: 42T4899
serial number: 21064
battery type: LION
OEM info: SANYO
Once the laptop switches the unit to mWh (unplug from mains, suspend,
resume), the output changes to:
Can you see how the values for "design capacity", etc., differ by a
factor of 10 instead of 14.8 (the design voltage of this battery)?
On the battery itself it says: 14.8V, 1.95Ah, 29Wh, so clearly the
values reported in mWh are correct and the ones in mAh are not.
My guess is that this problem has been around ever since those
machines were released, but because the most common Thinkpad
batteries are rated at 10.8V, the error (8%) is small enough that it
simply hasn't been noticed or at least nobody could be bothered to
look into it.
My patch works around the problem by adjusting the incorrectly
reported mAh values by "10000 / design_voltage". The patch also has
code to figure out if it should be activated or not. It only
activates on Lenovo Thinkpads, only when the unit is mAh, and, as an
extra precaution, only when the battery capacity reported through
ACPI does not match what is reported through DMI (I've never
encountered a machine where the first two conditions would be true
but the last would not, but better safe than sorry).
I've been using this patch for close to a year on several systems
without any problems.

HPET_TN_FSB is not a proper mask bit; it merely toggles between MSI and

use both bits when (un)masking the interrupt.
dmapool always calls dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_ATOMIC flag,
regardless the flags provided by the caller. This causes excessive
pruning of emergency memory pools without any good reason. Additionaly,
on ARM architecture any driver which is using dmapools will sooner or
later trigger the following error:
"ERROR: 256 KiB atomic DMA coherent pool is too small!
Please increase it with coherent_pool= kernel parameter!".
Increasing the coherent pool size usually doesn't help much and only
delays such error, because all GFP_ATOMIC DMA allocations are always
served from the special, very limited memory pool.
This patch changes the dmapool code to correctly use gfp flags provided
by the dmapool caller.

8852aac25e ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on
0 delay") unexpectedly uncovered a very nasty abuse of delayed_work in
megaraid - it allocated work_struct, casted it to delayed_work and
then pass that into queue_delayed_work().
Previously, this was okay because 0 @delay short-circuited to
queue_work() before doing anything with delayed_work. 8852aac25e
moved 0 @delay test into __queue_delayed_work() after sanity check on
delayed_work making megaraid trigger BUG_ON().
Although megaraid is already fixed by c1d390d8e6 ("megaraid: fix
BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work"), this patch converts
BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s so that such
abusers, if there are more, trigger warning but don't crash the
machine.

this results in an undefined instruction exception. The code didn't

Commit 00442ad04a5e ("mempolicy: fix a memory corruption by refcount
imbalance in alloc_pages_vma()") changed get_vma_policy() to raise the
refcount on a shmem shared mempolicy; whereas shmem_alloc_page() went
on expecting alloc_page_vma() to drop the refcount it had acquired.
This deserves a rework: but for now fix the leak in shmem_alloc_page().
Hugh: shmem_swapin() did not need a fix, but surely it's clearer to use
the same refcounting there as in shmem_alloc_page(), delete its onstack
mempolicy, and the strange mpol_cond_copy() and __mpol_cond_copy() -
those were invented to let swapin_readahead() make an unknown number of
calls to alloc_pages_vma() with one mempolicy; but since 00442ad04a5e,
alloc_pages_vma() has kept refcount in balance, so now no problem.

When a replacement operation completes there is a small window
when the original device is marked 'faulty' and the replacement
still looks like a replacement. The faulty should be removed and
the replacement moved in place very quickly, bit it isn't instant.
So the code write out to the array must handle the possibility that
the only working device for some slot in the replacement - but it
doesn't. If the primary device is faulty it just gives up. This
can lead to corruption.
So make the code more robust: if either the primary or the
replacement is present and working, write to them. Only when
neither are present do we give up.
This bug has been present since replacement was introduced in
3.3, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel since then.

When a cpu enters S3 state, the FPU state is lost.
After resuming for S3, if we try to lazy restore the FPU for a process running

Ensure that "fpu_owner_task" is properly invalided when (re-)initializing a CPU,
so nobody will try to lazy restore a state which doesn't exist in the hardware.
Tested with a 64-bit kernel on a 4-core Ivybridge CPU with eagerfpu=off,
by doing thousands of suspend/resume cycles with 4 processes doing FPU
operations running. Without the patch, a process is killed after a
few hundreds cycles by a SIGFPE.

Fix the acknowledgement of PMU interrupts on Dove: some Dove hardware
has not been sensibly designed so that interrupts can be handled in a
race free manner. The PMU is one such instance.
The pending (aka 'cause') register is a bunch of RW bits, meaning that
these bits can be both cleared and set by software (confirmed on the
Armada-510 on the cubox.)
Hardware sets the appropriate bit when an interrupt is asserted, and
software is required to clear the bits which are to be processed. If
we write ~(1 << bit), then we end up asserting every other interrupt
except the one we're processing. So, we need to do a read-modify-write
cycle to clear the asserted bit.
However, any interrupts which occur in the middle of this cycle will
also be written back as zero, which will also clear the new interrupts.
The upshot of this is: there is _no_ way to safely clear down interrupts
in this register (and other similarly behaving interrupt pending
registers on this device.) The patch below at least stops us creating
new interrupts.

The EEH core is talking with the PCI device driver to determine the

driver might be unloaded and in turn causes kernel crash as follows:
The patch increases the reference of the corresponding driver modules
while EEH core does the negotiation with PCI device driver so that the
corresponding driver modules can't be unloaded during the period and
we're safe to refer the callbacks.

Since 4.4 GCC on MIPS no longer recognizes the "h" constraint,
leading to this build failure:

lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul1.c: In function 'mpihelp_mul_1':
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul1.c:50:3: error: impossible constraint in 'asm'
This patch updates MPI with the latest umul_ppm implementations for MIPS.
The driver relies on the generic write implementation but did not call
generic close.
Note that the call to kill the read urb is not redundant, as mct_u232
uses an interrupt urb from the second port as the read urb and that
generic close therefore fails to kill it.

On hosts without the XSAVE support unprivileged local user can trigger
oops similar to the one below by setting X86_CR4_OSXSAVE bit in guest
cr4 register using KVM_SET_SREGS ioctl and later issuing KVM_RUN
ioctl.
QEMU first retrieves the supported features via KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
and then sets them later. So guest's X86_FEATURE_XSAVE should be masked
out on hosts without X86_FEATURE_XSAVE, making kvm_set_cr4 with
X86_CR4_OSXSAVE fail. Userspaces that allow specifying guest cpuid with
X86_FEATURE_XSAVE even on hosts that do not support it, might be
susceptible to this attack from inside the guest as well.
Allow setting X86_CR4_OSXSAVE bit only if host has XSAVE support.
Sometimes, warnings about ioctls to partition happen often enough that they
form majority of the warnings in the kernel log and users complain. In some
cases warnings are about ioctls such as SG_IO so it's not good to get rid of
the warnings completely as they can ease debugging of userspace problems
when ioctl is refused.
Since I have seen warnings from lots of commands, including some proprietary
userspace applications, I don't think disallowing the ioctls for processes
with CAP_SYS_RAWIO will happen in the near future if ever. So lets just
stop warning for processes with CAP_SYS_RAWIO for which ioctl is allowed.

The delayed work function int_in_work() may call usb_reset_device()
and thus, indirectly, the driver's pre_reset method. Trying to
cancel the work synchronously in that situation would deadlock.
Fix by avoiding cancel_work_sync() in the pre_reset method.
If the reset was NOT initiated by int_in_work() this might cause
int_in_work() to run after the post_reset method, with urb_int_in
already resubmitted, so handle that case gracefully.

dev_pm_qos_add_request() can return 0, 1, or a negative error code,
therefore the correct error test is "if (error < 0)." Checking just for

dev_pm_qos_add_ancestor_request() in st1232_ts_irq_handler(). This in turn

If a signal handler is executed on altstack and another signal comes,
we will end up with rt_sigreturn() on return from the second handler
getting -EPERM from do_sigaltstack(). It's perfectly OK, since we
are not asking to change the settings; in fact, they couldn't have been
changed during the second handler execution exactly because we'd been
on altstack all along. 64bit sigreturn on sparc treats any error from

we forgot to drop buffer lock before waiting for transaction commit and thus
deadlock is possible when kjournald wants to lock the buffer.

Dave Jones reported a bug with futex_lock_pi() that his trinity test
exposed. Sometime between queue_me() and taking the q.lock_ptr, the
lock_ptr became NULL, resulting in a crash.
While futex_wake() is careful to not call wake_futex() on futex_q's with
a pi_state or an rt_waiter (which are either waiting for a
futex_unlock_pi() or a PI futex_requeue()), futex_wake_op() and
futex_requeue() do not perform the same test.
Update futex_wake_op() and futex_requeue() to test for q.pi_state and
q.rt_waiter and abort with -EINVAL if detected. To ensure any future
breakage is caught, add a WARN() to wake_futex() if the same condition
is true.
This fix has seen 3 hours of testing with "trinity -c futex" on an
x86_64 VM with 4 CPUS.

Request based dm attempts to re-run the request queue off the
request completion path. If used with a driver that potentially does
end_io from its request_fn, we could deadlock trying to recurse
back into request dispatch. Fix this by punting the request queue
run to kblockd.
Tested to fix a quickly reproducible deadlock in such a scenario.
When a write to a replacement device completes, we carefully
and correctly found the rdev that the write actually went to
and the blithely called rdev_dec_pending on the primary rdev,
even if this write was to the replacement.
This means that any writes to an array while a replacement
was ongoing would cause the nr_pending count for the primary
device to go negative, so it could never be removed.
This bug has been present since replacement was introduced in
3.3, so it is suitable for any -stable kernel since then.
jffs2_write_begin() first acquires the page lock, then f->sem. This
causes an AB-BA deadlock with jffs2_garbage_collect_live(), which first
acquires f->sem, then the page lock:
We fix this by restructuring jffs2_write_begin() to take f->sem before
the page lock. However, we make sure that f->sem is not held when
calling jffs2_reserve_space(), as this is not permitted by the locking
rules.
The deadlock above was observed multiple times on an SoC with a dual
ARMv7 (Cortex-A9), running the long-term 3.4.11 kernel; it occurred
when using scp to copy files from a host system to the ARM target
system. The fix was heavily tested on the same target system.
The pointer returned by kzalloc should be tested for NULL
to avoid potential NULL pointer dereference later. Incorrect
pointer was being tested for NULL. Bug introduced by commit fbcf62a3
(mtd: physmap_of: move parse_obsolete_partitions to become separate
parser).
This patch fixes this bug.

This turns out to be correct and we need to pay attention to the pgoff as
well as the address when creating the virtual address for the area.
Fortunately, the bug is rarely triggered as most applications which use pgoff
tend to use large values (git being the primary one, and it uses pgoff in
multiples of 16MB) which are larger than our cache coherency modulus, so the
problem isn't often seen in practise.

Commit 88a8516a2128 (ALSA: usbaudio: implement USB autosuspend) added
autosuspend code to all files making up the snd-usb-audio driver.
However, midi.c is part of snd-usb-lib and is also used by other
drivers, not all of which support autosuspend. Thus, calls to
usb_autopm_get_interface() could fail, and this unexpected error would
result in the MIDI output being completely unusable.
Make it work by ignoring the error that is expected with drivers that do
not support autosuspend.

In 32 bit the stack address provided by kernel_stack_pointer() may
point to an invalid range causing NULL pointer access or page faults
while in NMI (see trace below). This happens if called in softirq
context and if the stack is empty. The address at ®s->sp is then
out of range.
Fixing this by checking if regs and ®s->sp are in the same stack
context. Otherwise return the previous stack pointer stored in struct
thread_info. If that address is invalid too, return address of regs.

* add comments to kernel_stack_pointer()
* always return a valid stack address by falling back to the address
