Split _request_firmware() into three functions,
_request_firmware_prepare() doing preparatory work that need not be
done under umhelper_sem, _request_firmware_cleanup() doing the
post-error cleanup and _request_firmware() carrying out the remaining
operations.
This change is requisite for moving the acquisition of umhelper_sem
from _request_firmware() to the callers, which is going to be done
subsequently.

mplayer -vo fbdev tries to create a screen that is twice as tall as the
allocated framebuffer for "doublebuffering". By default, and all in-tree
users, only sufficient memory is allocated and mapped to satisfy the
smallest framebuffer and the virtual size is no larger than the actual.
For these users, we should therefore reject any userspace request to
create a screen that requires a buffer larger than the framebuffer
originally allocated.

Currently the maximum noise floor limit is set as too high (-60dB). The
assumption of having a higher threshold limit is that it would help
de-sensitize the receiver (reduce phy errors) from continuous
interference. But when we have a bursty interference where there are
collisions and then free air time and if the receiver is desensitized too
much, it will miss the normal packets too. Lets make use of chips
specific min, nom and max limits always. This patch helps to improve the
connection stability in congested networks.

When reading the trace file, the records of each of the per_cpu buffers
are examined to find the next event to print out. At the point of looking
at the event, the size of the event is recorded. But if the first event is
chosen, the other events in the other CPU buffers will reset the event size
that is stored in the iterator descriptor, causing the event size passed to
the output functions to be incorrect.
In most cases this is not a problem, but for the case of stack traces, it
is. With the change to the stack tracing to record a dynamic number of
back traces, the output depends on the size of the entry instead of the
fixed 8 back traces. When the entry size is not correct, the back traces
would not be fully printed.
Note, reading from the per-cpu trace files were not affected.

commit 64b3db22c04586997ab4be46dd5a5b99f8a2d390 (2.6.39),
"Remove use of unreliable FADT revision field" causes regression
for old P4 systems because now cst_control and other fields are
not reset to 0.
The effect is that acpi_processor_power_init will notice
cst_control != 0 and a write to CST_CNT register is performed
that should not happen. As result, the system oopses after the
"No _CST, giving up" message, sometimes in acpi_ns_internalize_name,
sometimes in acpi_ns_get_type, usually at random places. May be
during migration to CPU 1 in acpi_processor_get_throttling.
Every one of these settings help to avoid this problem:
- acpi=off
- processor.nocst=1
- maxcpus=1
The fix is to update acpi_gbl_FADT.header.length after
the original value is used to check for old revisions.

On Intel CPUs the processor typically uses the highest frequency
set by any logical CPU. When the system overheats
Linux first forces the frequency to the lowest available one
to lower the temperature.
However this was done only per logical CPU, which means all
logical CPUs in a package would need to go through this before
the frequency is actually lowered.
Worse this delay actually prevents real throttling, because
the real throttle code only proceeds when the lowest frequency
is already reached.
So when a throttle event happens force the lowest frequency
for all CPUs in the package where it happened. The per CPU
state is now kept per package, not per logical CPU. An alternative
would be to do it per cpufreq unit, but since we want to bring
down the temperature of the complete chip it's better
to do it for all.
In principle it may even make sense to do it for all CPUs,
but I kept it on the package for now.
With this change the frequency is actually lowered, which
in terms also allows real throttling to proceed.
I also removed an unnecessary per cpu variable initialization.

Since 3.2.12 and 3.3, some systems are failing to boot with a BUG_ON.
Some other systems using the pata_jmicron driver fail to boot because no
disks are detected. Passing pcie_aspm=force on the kernel command line
works around it.
The cause: commit 4949be16822e ("PCI: ignore pre-1.1 ASPM quirking when
ASPM is disabled") changed the behaviour of pcie_aspm_sanity_check() to
always return 0 if aspm is disabled, in order to avoid cases where we
changed ASPM state on pre-PCIe 1.1 devices.
This skipped the secondary function of pcie_aspm_sanity_check which was
to avoid us enabling ASPM on devices that had non-PCIe children, causing
trouble later on. Move the aspm_disabled check so we continue to honour
that scenario.

When DMA is enabled, sh-sci transfer begins with
uart_start()
sci_start_tx()
if (cookie_tx < 0) schedule_work()
Then, starts DMA when wq scheduled, -- (A)
process_one_work()
work_fn_rx()
cookie_tx = desc->submit_tx()
And finishes when DMA transfer ends, -- (B)
sci_dma_tx_complete()
async_tx_ack()
cookie_tx = -EINVAL
(possible another schedule_work())
This A to B sequence is not reentrant, since controlling variables
(for example, cookie_tx above) are not queues nor lists. So, they
must be invoked as A B A B..., otherwise results in kernel crash.
To ensure the sequence, sci_start_tx() seems to test if cookie_tx < 0
(represents "not used") to call schedule_work().
But cookie_tx will not be set (to a cookie, also means "used") until
in the middle of work queue scheduled function work_fn_tx().
This gap between the test and set allows the breakage of the sequence
under the very frequently call of uart_start().
Another gap between async_tx_ack() and another schedule_work() results
in the same issue, too.
This patch introduces a new condition "cookie_tx == 0" just to mark
it is "busy" and assign it within spin-locked region to fill the gaps.

<asm-generic/unistd.h> was set up to use sys_sendfile() for the 32-bit
compat API instead of sys_sendfile64(), but in fact the right thing to
do is to use sys_sendfile64() in all cases. The 32-bit sendfile64() API
in glibc uses the sendfile64 syscall, so it has to be capable of doing
full 64-bit operations. But the sys_sendfile() kernel implementation
has a MAX_NON_LFS test in it which explicitly limits the offset to 2^32.
So, we need to use the sys_sendfile64() implementation in the kernel
for this case.
While running the latest Linux as guest under VMware in highly
over-committed situations, we have seen cases when the refined TSC
algorithm fails to get a valid tsc_start value in
tsc_refine_calibration_work from multiple attempts. As a result the
kernel keeps on scheduling the tsc_irqwork task for later. Subsequently
after several attempts when it gets a valid start value it goes through
the refined calibration and either bails out or uses the new results.
Given that the kernel originally read the TSC frequency from the
platform, which is the best it can get, I don't think there is much
value in refining it.
So for systems which get the TSC frequency from the platform we
should skip the refined tsc algorithm.
We can use the TSC_RELIABLE cpu cap flag to detect this, right now it is
set only on VMware and for Moorestown Penwell both of which have there
own TSC calibration methods.

When an IO error happens during inode deletion run from
xlog_recover_process_iunlinks() filesystem gets shutdown. Thus any subsequent
attempt to read buffers fails. Code in xlog_recover_process_iunlinks() does not
count with the fact that read of a buffer which was read a while ago can
really fail which results in the oops on
agi = XFS_BUF_TO_AGI(agibp);
Fix the problem by cleaning up the buffer handling in
xlog_recover_process_iunlinks() as suggested by Dave Chinner. We release buffer
lock but keep buffer reference to AG buffer. That is enough for buffer to stay
pinned in memory and we don't have to call xfs_read_agi() all the time.

Avoid using the bi_next field for the holder of a cell when deferring
bios because a stacked device below might change it. Store the
holder in a new field in struct cell instead.
When a cell is created, the bio that triggered creation (the holder) was
added to the same bio list as subsequent bios. In some cases we pass
this holder bio directly to devices underneath. If those devices use
the bi_next field there will be trouble...
This also simplifies some code that had to work out which bio was the

When we remove an entry from a node we sometimes rebalance with it's
two neighbours. This wasn't being done correctly; in some cases
entries have to move all the way from the right neighbour to the left
neighbour, or vice versa. This patch pretty much re-writes the
balancing code to fix it.
This code is barely used currently; only when you delete a thin
device, and then only if you have hundreds of them in the same pool.
Once we have discard support, which removes mappings, this will be used
much more heavily.

This patch fixes a possible deadlock in dm-crypt's mempool use.
Currently, dm-crypt reserves a mempool of MIN_BIO_PAGES reserved pages.
It allocates first MIN_BIO_PAGES with non-failing allocation (the allocation
cannot fail and waits until the mempool is refilled). Further pages are
allocated with different gfp flags that allow failing.
Because allocations may be done in parallel, this code can deadlock. Example:
There are two processes, each tries to allocate MIN_BIO_PAGES and the processes
run simultaneously.
It may end up in a situation where each process allocates (MIN_BIO_PAGES / 2)
pages. The mempool is exhausted. Each process waits for more pages to be freed
to the mempool, which never happens.
To avoid this deadlock scenario, this patch changes the code so that only
the first page is allocated with non-failing gfp mask. Allocation of further
pages may fail.

Explicitly test for an extent whose length is zero, and flag that as a
corrupted extent.
This avoids a kernel BUG_ON assertion failure.
Tested: Without this patch, the file system image found in
tests/f_ext_zero_len/image.gz in the latest e2fsprogs sources causes a
kernel panic. With this patch, an ext4 file system error is noted
instead, and the file system is marked as being corrupted.
This is using the aio-stress program from the xfstests test suite.
That particular command line tells aio-stress to do random writes to
20 files from 20 threads (one thread per file). The files are NOT
preallocated, so you will get writes to random offsets within the
file, thus creating holes and extending i_size. It also opens the
file with O_DIRECT and O_SYNC.
On to the problem. When an I/O requires unwritten extent conversion,
it is queued onto the completed_io_list for the ext4 inode. Two code
paths will pull work items from this list. The first is the
ext4_end_io_work routine, and the second is ext4_flush_completed_IO,
which is called via the fsync path (and O_SYNC handling, as well).
There are two issues I've found in these code paths. First, if the
fsync path beats the work routine to a particular I/O, the work
routine will free the io_end structure! It does not take into account
the fact that the io_end may still be in use by the fsync path. I've
fixed this issue by adding yet another IO_END flag, indicating that
the io_end is being processed by the fsync path.
The second problem is that the work routine will make an assignment to
io->flag outside of the lock. I have witnessed this result in a hang
at umount. Moving the flag setting inside the lock resolved that
problem.
The problem was introduced by commit b82e384c7b ("ext4: optimize
locking for end_io extent conversion"), which first appeared in 3.2.
As such, the fix should be backported to that release (probably along
with the unwritten extent conversion race fix).
The following comment in ext4_end_io_dio caught my attention:
/* XXX: probably should move into the real I/O completion handler */
inode_dio_done(inode);
The truncate code takes i_mutex, then calls inode_dio_wait. Because the
ext4 code path above will end up dropping the mutex before it is
reacquired by the worker thread that does the extent conversion, it
seems to me that the truncate can happen out of order. Jan Kara
mentioned that this might result in error messages in the system logs,
but that should be the extent of the "damage."
The fix is pretty straight-forward: don't call inode_dio_done until the
extent conversion is complete.

Ext4 does not support data journalling with delayed allocation enabled.
We even do not allow to mount the file system with delayed allocation
and data journalling enabled, however it can be set via FS_IOC_SETFLAGS
so we can hit the inode with EXT4_INODE_JOURNAL_DATA set even on file
system mounted with delayed allocation (default) and that's where
problem arises. The easies way to reproduce this problem is with the
following set of commands:
Additionally it can be reproduced quite reliably with xfstests 272 and
269. In fact the above reproducer is a part of test 272.
To fix this we should ignore the EXT4_INODE_JOURNAL_DATA inode flag if
the file system is mounted with delayed allocation. This can be easily
done by fixing ext4_should_*_data() functions do ignore data journal
flag when delalloc is set (suggested by Ted). We also have to set the
appropriate address space operations for the inode (again, ignoring data
journal flag if delalloc enabled).
Additionally this commit introduces ext4_inode_journal_mode() function
because ext4_should_*_data() has already had a lot of common code and
this change is putting it all into one function so it is easier to
read.
Successfully tested with xfstests in following configurations:
journal_unmap_buffer()'s zap_buffer: code clears a lot of buffer head
state ala discard_buffer(), but does not touch _Delay or _Unwritten as
discard_buffer() does.
This can be problematic in some areas of the ext4 code which assume
that if they have found a buffer marked unwritten or delay, then it's
a live one. Perhaps those spots should check whether it is mapped
as well, but if jbd2 is going to tear down a buffer, let's really
tear it down completely.
Without this I get some fsx failures on sub-page-block filesystems
up until v3.2, at which point 4e96b2dbbf1d7e81f22047a50f862555a6cb87cb
and 189e868fa8fdca702eb9db9d8afc46b5cb9144c9 make the failures go
away, because buried within that large change is some more flag
clearing. I still think it's worth doing in jbd2, since
->invalidatepage leads here directly, and it's the right place
to clear away these flags.
If create_basic_memory_bitmaps() fails, usermodehelpers are not re-enabled
before returning. Fix this. And while at it, reword the goto labels so that
they look more meaningful.

This broke complete operation of the driver whenever AP mode was

The configuration parameter R8712_AP is misleading as the driver cannot

This patch addresses a kernel bugzilla report and two recent mail threads.
The kernel bugzilla report is https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42632,
which reports a udev timeout on boot.
The first mail thread, which was on LKML (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/
linux/kernel/1112.3/00965.html) was for a WARNING that occurs after a
suspend/resume cycle for rtl8192cu.
The scond mail thread (http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132655490826766&w=2)
concerned changes in udev that break drivers that delay while firmware is loaded
on modprobe.
This patch converts all rtlwifi-based drivers to use the asynchronous firmware
loading mechanism. Drivers rtl8192ce, rtl8192cu and rtl8192de share a common
callback routine. Driver rtl8192se needs different handling of the firmware,
thus it has its own code.

The TMU device on the Mackerel board belongs to the A4R power domain
and loses power when the domain is turned off. Unfortunately, the
TMU driver is not prepared to cope with such situations and crashes
the system when that happens. To work around this problem introduce
a new helper function, pm_genpd_dev_always_on(), allowing a device
driver to mark its device as "always on" in case it belongs to a PM
domain, which will make the generic PM domains core code avoid
powering off the domain containing the device, both at run time and
during system suspend.

During resume from hibernation pm_genpd_restore_noirq() should only
power off domains whose suspend_power_off flags are set once and
not every time it is called for a device in the given domain.
Moreover, it shouldn't decrement genpd->suspended_count, because
that field is not touched during device freezing and therefore it is
always equal to 0 when pm_genpd_restore_noirq() runs for the first
device in the given domain.
This means pm_genpd_restore_noirq() may use genpd->suspended_count
to determine whether or not it it has been called for the domain in
question already in this cycle (it only needs to increment that
field every time it runs for this purpose) and whether or not it
should check if the domain needs to be powered off. For that to
work, though, pm_genpd_prepare() has to clear genpd->suspended_count
when it runs for the first device in the given domain (in which case
that flag need not be cleared during domain initialization).

This patch fixes a regression in kernel 3.3 due to this patch:
http://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/8332/
That patch changes "#pragma pack(1)" with "__packed" attributes, but it is not
complete. In fact, in the as102 driver there are a lot of structs/unions
defined inside other structs/unions.
When the "__packed" attribute is applied only on the external struct, it will
not affect the internal struct definitions.
So the regression is fixed by specifiying the "__packed" attribute also on the
internal structs.
This patch should go into 3.3, as it fixes a regression introduced in the new
kernel version.
The error handling in lgdt3303_read_status() and lgdt330x_read_ucblocks()

use it and if user called poll() in a file that doesn't support it.
