The PCM pointer callback sometimes returns invalid positions and this
screws up the hw_ptr updater in PCM core. Especially since now the
jiffies check is optional with xrun_debug, the invalid position is
handled as is, and causes serious sound skips, etc.
This patch simplifies the position-fix strategy in intel8x0 to be more
robust:
- just falls back to the last position if bogus position is detected
- another sanity check for the backward move of the position due to
a race of register update and the base-index update
This patch is applicable also for 2.6.30.

The initialization of the UV Broadcast Assist Unit's sending
buffers was making an invalid assumption about the
initialization of an MMR that defines its address.
The BIOS will not be providing that MMR. So
uv_activation_descriptor_init() should unconditionally set it.
The *fence instructions were moved to vsyscall_64.c by commit cb9e35dce94a1b9c59d46224e8a94377d673e204. But this breaks the

The current code to set up the GART as an IOMMU enables GART
translations before it removes the aperture from the kernel memory
map, sets the GART PTEs to UC, sets up the guard and scratch
pages, or does a wbinvd(). This leaves the possibility of cache
aliasing open and can cause system crashes.
Re-order the code so as to enable the GART translations only
after all safeguards are in place and the tlb has been flushed.

Fix bug in the SGI UV macros that support systems with multiple
coherency domains. The macros used for referencing global MMR
(chipset registers) are failing to correctly "or" the NASID
(node identifier) bits that reside above M+N. These high bits
are supplied automatically by the chipset for memory accesses
coming from the processor socket.
However, the bits must be present for references to the special
global MMR space used to map chipset registers. (See uv_hub.h
for more details ...)
The bug results in references to invalid/incorrect nodes.
The UV tlb shootdown code has a serious initialization error.

Since i2c autoprobing is no longer supported by v4l2 we need to make sure
that the i2c modules are linked before the v4l2 modules. The v4l2 modules
now rely on the presence of the i2c modules, so these must have initialized
themselves before the v4l2 modules.
The exception is the ir-kbd-i2c module, which is the only one still using
autoprobing. This one should be loaded at the end of the v4l2 module. Loading
it earlier actually causes problems with tveeprom. Once ir-kbd-i2c is no
longer autoprobing, then it has to move up as well.
This is only an issue when everything is compiled into the kernel.

The cx25840 module's VBI initialization logic uses the current video
standard as part of its internal algorithm. This therefore means that
we probably need to make sure that the correct video standard has been
set before initializing VBI. (Normally we would not care about VBI,
but as described in an earlier changeset, VBI must be initialized
correctly on the cx25840 in order for the chip's hardware scaler to
operate correctly.)
It's kind of messy to force the video standard to be set before
initializing VBI (mainly because we can't know what the app really
wants that early in the initialization process). So this patch does
the next best thing: VBI is re-initialized after any point where the
video standard has been set.

The cx25840 module requires that its VBI initialization entry point be
called in order for hardware-scaled video capture to work properly -
even if we don't care about VBI. Making this behavior even more
subtle is that if the capture resolution is set to 720x480 - which is
the default that the pvrusb2 driver sets up - then the cx25840
bypasses the hardware scaler. Therefore this problem does not
manifest itself until some other resolution, e.g. 640x480, is tried.
MythTV typically defaults to 640x480 or 480x480, which means that
things break whenever the driver is used with MythTV.
This all has been known for a while (since at least Nov 2006), but
recent changes in the pvrusb2 driver (specifically in regards to
sub-device support) caused this to break again. VBI initialization
must happen *after* the chip's firmware is loaded, not before. With
this fix, 24xxx devices work correctly again.
A related fix that is part of this changeset is that now we
re-initialize VBI any time after we issue a reset to the cx25840
driver. Issuing a chip reset erases the state that the VBI setup
previously did. Until the HVR-1950 came along this subtlety went
unnoticed, because the pvrusb2 driver previously never issued such a
reset. But with the HVR-1950 we have to do that reset in order to
correctly transition from digital back to analog mode - and since the
HVR-1950 always starts in digital mode (required for the DVB side to
initialize correctly) then this device has never had a chance to work
correctly in analog mode! Analog capture on the HVR-1950 has been
broken this *ENTIRE* time. I had missed it until now because I've
usually been testing at the default 720x480 resolution which does not
require scaling... What fun. By re-initializing VBI after a cx25840
chip reset, correct behavior is restored.

The reason is that default_get_apic_id handled extension of local APIC

Thus for this AMD CPU, default_get_apic_id() returns 0 and
bigsmp_get_apic_id() returns 16 which leads to the respective kernel
panic.
This patch introduces a Linux specific feature flag to indicate
support for extended APIC id (8 bits instead of 4 bits width) and sets
the flag on AMD CPUs if applicable.
In moxa.c there are 32 minor numbers reserved for each device. The number
of ports actually available per device is stored in

Opening a port that is not available results in a kernel oops. This patch
adds a test to moxa_open() that prevents opening unavailable ports.
Some device drivers map the same physical address multiple times to a
dma address. Without an IOMMU this results in the same dma address being
put into the dma-debug hash multiple times. With a first-fit match in
hash_bucket_find() this function may return the wrong dma_debug_entry.
This can result in false positive warnings. This patch fixes it by
changing the first-fit behavior of hash_bucket_find() into a best-fit
algorithm.

When route caching is disabled (rt_caching returns false), We still use route
cache entries that are created and passed into rt_intern_hash once. These
routes need to be made usable for the one call path that holds a reference to
them, and they need to be reclaimed when they're finished with their use. To be
made usable, they need to be associated with a neighbor table entry (which they
currently are not), otherwise iproute_finish2 just discards the packet, since we
don't know which L2 peer to send the packet to. To do this binding, we need to
follow the path a bit higher up in rt_intern_hash, which calls
arp_bind_neighbour, but not assign the route entry to the hash table.
Currently, if caching is off, we simply assign the route to the rp pointer and
are reutrn success. This patch associates us with a neighbor entry first.
Secondly, we need to make sure that any single use routes like this are known to
the garbage collector when caching is off. If caching is off, and we try to
hash in a route, it will leak when its refcount reaches zero. To avoid this,
this patch calls rt_free on the route cache entry passed into rt_intern_hash.
This places us on the gc list for the route cache garbage collector, so that
when its refcount reaches zero, it will be reclaimed (Thanks to Alexey for this
suggestion).
I've tested this on a local system here, and with these patches in place, I'm
able to maintain routed connectivity to remote systems, even if I set
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/rt_cache_rebuild_count to -1, which forces rt_caching to
return false.

I recently got a report of an oops on a route lookup. Maxime was
testing what would happen if route caching was turned off (doing so by setting
making rt_caching always return 0), and found that it triggered an oops. I
looked at it and found that the problem stemmed from the fact that the route
lookup routines were returning success from their lookup paths (which is good),
but never set the **rp pointer to anything (which is bad). This happens because
in rt_intern_hash, if rt_caching returns false, we call rt_drop and return 0.
This almost emulates slient success. What we should be doing is assigning *rp =
rt and _not_ dropping the route. This way, during slow path lookups, when we
create a new route cache entry, we don't immediately discard it, rather we just
don't add it into the cache hash table, but we let this one lookup use it for
the purpose of this route request. Maxime has tested and reports it prevents
the oops. There is still a subsequent routing issue that I'm looking into
further, but I'm confident that, even if its related to this same path, this
patch makes sense to take.

Matt T. Yourst notes that kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_sregs lacks validity
checking for the new cr3 value:
"Userspace callers of KVM_SET_SREGS can pass a bogus value of cr3 to
the kernel. This will trigger a NULL pointer access in gfn_to_rmap()
when userspace next tries to call KVM_RUN on the affected VCPU and kvm
attempts to activate the new non-existent page table root.
This happens since kvm only validates that cr3 points to a valid guest
physical memory page when code *inside* the guest sets cr3. However, kvm
currently trusts the userspace caller (e.g. QEMU) on the host machine to
always supply a valid page table root, rather than properly validating
it along with the rest of the reloaded guest state."
If a slots guest physical address and host virtual address unequal (mod
large page size), then we would erronously try to back guest large pages
with host large pages. Detect this misalignment and diable large page
support for the trouble slot.

autofs4: remove hashed check in validate_wait()
The recent ->lookup() deadlock correction required the directory inode
mutex to be dropped while waiting for expire completion. We were
concerned about side effects from this change and one has been identified.
I saw several error messages.
They cause autofs to become quite confused and don't really point to the
actual problem.
Things like:
handle_packet_missing_direct:1376: can't find map entry for (43,1827932)
which is usually totally fatal (although in this case it wouldn't be
except that I treat is as such because it normally is).
do_mount_direct: direct trigger not valid or already mounted
/test/nested/g3c/s1/ss1
which is recoverable, however if this problem is at play it can cause
autofs to become quite confused as to the dependencies in the mount tree
because mount triggers end up mounted multiple times. It's hard to
accurately check for this over mounting case and automount shouldn't need
to if the kernel module is doing its job.
There was one other message, similar in consequence of this last one but I
can't locate a log example just now.
When checking if a mount has already completed prior to adding a new mount
request to the wait queue we check if the dentry is hashed and, if so, if
it is a mount point. But, if a mount successfully completed while we
slept on the wait queue mutex the dentry must exist for the mount to have
completed so the test is not really needed.
Mounts can also be done on top of a global root dentry, so for the above
case, where a mount request completes and the wait queue entry has already
been removed, the hashed test returning false can cause an incorrect
callback to the daemon. Also, d_mountpoint() is not sufficient to check
if a mount has completed for the multi-mount case when we don't have a
real mount at the base of the tree.

cls_cgroup: Fix oops when user send improperly 'tc filter add' request
I found a bug in cls_cgroup_change() in cls_cgroup.c.
cls_cgroup_change() expected tca[TCA_OPTIONS] was set from user space properly,
but tc in iproute2-2.6.29-1 (which I used) didn't set it.
In the current source code of tc in git, it set tca[TCA_OPTIONS].
If we always use a newest iproute2 in git when we use cls_cgroup,
we don't face this oops probably.
But I think, kernel shouldn't panic regardless of use program's behaviour.

r8169: fix crash when large packets are received
Michael Tokarev reported receiving a large packet could crash
a machine with RTL8169 NIC.
( original thread at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/8/192 )
Problem is this driver tells that NIC frames up to 16383 bytes
can be received but provides skb to rx ring allocated with
smaller sizes (1536 bytes in case standard 1500 bytes MTU is used)
When a frame larger than what was allocated by driver is received,
dma transfert can occurs past the end of buffer and corrupt
kernel memory.
Fix is to tell to NIC what is the maximum size a frame can be.
This bug is very old, (before git introduction, linux-2.6.10), and
should be backported to stable versions.

md/raid5: fix bug in reshape code when chunk_size decreases.
Now that we support changing the chunksize, we calculate
"reshape_sectors" to be the max of number of sectors in old
and new chunk size.
However there is one please where we still use 'chunksize'
rather than 'reshape_sectors'.
This causes a reshape that reduces the size of chunks to freeze.
NeilBrown [Tue, 9 Jun 2009 04:39:59 +0000 (14:39 +1000)]
md/raid5 - avoid deadlocks in get_active_stripe during reshape
md has functionality to 'quiesce' and array so that all pending
IO completed and no new IO starts. This is used to achieve a
stable state before making internal changes.
Currently this quiescing applies equally to normal IO, resync
IO, and reshape IO.
However there is a problem with applying it to reshape IO.
Reshape can have multiple 'stripe_heads' that must be active together.
If the quiesce come between allocating the first and the last of
such a collection, then we deadlock, as the last will not be allocated
until the quiesce is lifted, the quiesce will not be lifted until the
first (which has been allocated) gets used, and that first cannot be
used until the last is allocated.
It is not necessary to inhibit reshape IO when a quiesce is
requested. Those places in the code that require a full quiesce will
ensure the reshape thread is not running at all.
So allow reshape requests to get access to new stripe_heads without
being blocked by a 'quiesce'.
This only affects in-place reshapes (i.e. where the array does not
grow or shrink) and these are only newly supported. So this patch is
not needed in earlier kernels.

async: Fix lack of boot-time console due to insufficient synchronization
Our async work synchronization was broken by "async: make sure
independent async domains can't accidentally entangle" (commit d5a877e8dd409d8c702986d06485c374b705d340), because it would report
the wrong lowest active async ID when there was both running and
pending async work.
This caused things like no being able to read the root filesystem,
resulting in missing console devices and inability to run 'init',
causing a boot-time panic.
This fixes it by properly returning the lowest pending async ID: if
there is any running async work, that will have a lower ID than any
pending work, and we should _not_ look at the pending work list.
There were alternative patches from Jaswinder and James, but this one
also cleans up the code by removing the pointless 'ret' variable and
the unnecesary testing for an empty list around 'for_each_entry()' (if
the list is empty, the for_each_entry() thing just won't execute).

The rewrite also fixes build errors with GCC 4.4 which was changed in

OK, that's probably the easiest way to do that, as much as I don't like it...
Since iget() et.al. will not accept I_FREEING (will wait to go away
and restart), and since we'd better have serialization between new/free
on fs data structures anyway, we can afford simply skipping I_FREEING
et.al. in insert_inode_locked().
We do that from new_inode, so it won't race with free_inode in any interesting
ways and it won't race with iget (of any origin; nfsd or in case of fs
corruption a lookup) since both still will wait for I_LOCK.

Fix nobh_truncate_page() to not pass stack garbage to get_block()
The nobh_truncate_page() function is used by ext2, exofs, and jfs. Of
these three, only ext2 and jfs's get_block() function pays attention
to bh->b_size --- which is normally always the filesystem blocksize
except when the get_block() function is called by either
mpage_readpage(), mpage_readpages(), or the direct I/O routines in
fs/direct_io.c.
Unfortunately, nobh_truncate_page() does not initialize map_bh before
calling the filesystem-supplied get_block() function. So ext2 and jfs
will try to calculate the number of blocks to map by taking stack
garbage and shifting it left by inode->i_blkbits. This should be
*mostly* harmless (except the filesystem will do some unnneeded work)
unless the stack garbage is less than filesystem's blocksize, in which
case maxblocks will be zero, and the attempt to find out whether or
not the filesystem has a hole at a given logical block will fail, and
the page cache entry might not get zero'ed out.
Also if the stack garbage in in map_bh->state happens to have the
BH_Mapped bit set, there could be an attempt to call readpage() on a
non-existent page, which could cause nobh_truncate_page() to return an
error when it should not.
Fix this by initializing map_bh->state and map_bh->size.
Fortunately, it's probably fairly unlikely that ext2 and jfs users
mount with nobh these days.
