watchdog: mtx1-wdt: fix build failure
Commit 6d86a0ee (watchdog: mtx1-wdt: request gpio before using it) was
backported from upstream. The patch is using a gpiolib call which is only
available in kernel 2.6.34+. Fix build by using the "old" gpiolib API
instead.
This adds a mechanism to resume selected IRQs during syscore_resume
instead of dpm_resume_noirq.
Under Xen we need to resume IRQs associated with IPIs early enough
that the resched IPI is unmasked and we can therefore schedule
ourselves out of the stop_machine where the suspend/resume takes
place.
This issue was introduced by 676dc3cf5bc3 "xen: Use IRQF_FORCE_RESUME".
Back ported to 2.6.32 (which lacks syscore support) by calling the relavant
resume function directly from sysdev_resume).

vcpu->last_guest_tsc is updated in vcpu_enter_guest() and kvm_arch_vcpu_put()
by getting the last value of the TSC from the guest.
On reset, the SeaBIOS resets the TSC to 0, which triggers a bug on the next
call to kvm_write_guest_time(): Since vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp still
contains the old value before the reset, "max_kernel_ns = vcpu->last_guest_tsc
- vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp" gets negative. Since the variable is u64, it
gets translated to a large positive value.
For completeness, here are the values for my 3 GHz CPU:
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_shift =-1
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_to_system_mul =2_863_019_502
This makes the guest kernel crawl very slowly when clocksource=kvmclock is
used: sleeps take way longer than expected and don't match wall clock any more.
The times printed with printk() don't match real time and the reboot often
stalls for long times.
In linux-git this isn't a problem, since on every MSR_IA32_TSC write
vcpu->arch.hv_clock.tsc_timestamp is reset to 0, which disables above logic.
The code there is only in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, since much of the kvm-clock
related code has been refactured for 2.6.37: 99e3e30a arch/x86/kvm/x86.c

vcpu->arch.hv_clock.tsc_timestamp = 0;
A user reported a kernel bug when running a particular program that did
the following:
created 32 threads
- each thread took a mutex, grabbed a global offset, added a buffer size
to that offset, released the lock
- read from the given offset in the file
- created a new thread to do the same
- exited
The result is that cfq's close cooperator logic would trigger, as the
threads were issuing I/O within the mean seek distance of one another.
This workload managed to routinely trigger a use after free bug when
walking the list of merge candidates for a particular cfqq
(cfqq->new_cfqq). The logic used for merging queues looks like this:
/* Avoid a circular list and skip interim queue merges */
while ((__cfqq = new_cfqq->new_cfqq)) {
if (__cfqq == cfqq)
return;
new_cfqq = __cfqq;
}
process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(cfqq);
/*
* If the process for the cfqq has gone away, there is no
* sense in merging the queues.
*/
if (process_refs == 0)
return;
/*
* Merge in the direction of the lesser amount of work.
*/
new_process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(new_cfqq);
if (new_process_refs >= process_refs) {
cfqq->new_cfqq = new_cfqq;
atomic_add(process_refs, &new_cfqq->ref);
} else {
new_cfqq->new_cfqq = cfqq;
atomic_add(new_process_refs, &cfqq->ref);
}
}
When a merge candidate is found, we add the process references for the
queue with less references to the queue with more. The actual merging
of queues happens when a new request is issued for a given cfqq. In the
case of the test program, it only does a single pread call to read in
1MB, so the actual merge never happens.
Normally, this is fine, as when the queue exits, we simply drop the
references we took on the other cfqqs in the merge chain:
/*
* If this queue was scheduled to merge with another queue, be
* sure to drop the reference taken on that queue (and others in
* the merge chain). See cfq_setup_merge and cfq_merge_cfqqs.
*/
__cfqq = cfqq->new_cfqq;
while (__cfqq) {
if (__cfqq == cfqq) {
WARN(1, "cfqq->new_cfqq loop detected\n");
break;
}
next = __cfqq->new_cfqq;
cfq_put_queue(__cfqq);
__cfqq = next;
}
However, there is a hole in this logic. Consider the following (and
keep in mind that each I/O keeps a reference to the cfqq):
q1->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 2 process references
q3->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 3 process references
// the process associated with q2 exits
// q2 now has 2 process references
// queue 1 exits, drops its reference on q2
// q2 now has 1 process reference
// q3 exits, so has 0 process references, and hence drops its references
// to q2, which leaves q2 also with 0 process references
q4 comes along and wants to merge with q3
q3->new_cfqq still points at q2! We follow that link and end up at an
already freed cfqq.
So, the fix is to not follow a merge chain if the top-most queue does
not have a process reference, otherwise any queue in the chain could be
already freed. I also changed the logic to disallow merging with a
queue that does not have any process references. Previously, we did
this check for one of the merge candidates, but not the other. That
doesn't really make sense.

cfq_queues are merged if they are issuing requests within the mean seek
distance of one another. This patch detects when the coopearting stops and
breaks the queues back up.
The flag used to indicate that a cfqq was allowed to jump ahead in the
scheduling order due to submitting a request close to the queue that
just executed. Since closely cooperating queues are now merged, the flag
holds little meaning. Change it to indicate that multiple queues were
merged. This will later be used to allow the breaking up of merged queues
when they are no longer cooperating.
When cooperating cfq_queues are detected currently, they are allowed to
skip ahead in the scheduling order. It is much more efficient to
automatically share the cfq_queue data structure between cooperating processes.
Performance of the read-test2 benchmark (which is written to emulate the
dump(8) utility) went from 12MB/s to 90MB/s on my SATA disk. NFS servers
with multiple nfsd threads also saw performance increases.
async cfq_queue's are already shared between processes within the same
priority, and forthcoming patches will change the mapping of cic to sync
cfq_queue from 1:1 to 1:N. So, calculate the seekiness of a process
based on the cfq_queue instead of the cfq_io_context.
ubd_file_size() cannot use ubd_dev->cow.file because at this time
ubd_dev->cow.file is not initialized.
Therefore, ubd_file_size() will always report a wrong disk size when
COW files are used.
Reading from /dev/ubd* would crash the kernel.
We have to read the correct disk size from the COW file's backing
file.

To configure pads during the initialisation a set of special constants
is used, e.g.
#define MX25_PAD_FEC_MDIO__FEC_MDIO IOMUX_PAD(0x3c4, 0x1cc, 0x10, 0, 0, PAD_CTL_HYS | PAD_CTL_PUS_22K_UP)
The problem is that no pull-up/down is getting activated unless both
PAD_CTL_PUE (pull-up enable) and PAD_CTL_PKE (pull/keeper module
enable) set. This is clearly stated in the i.MX25 datasheet and is
confirmed by the measurements on hardware. This leads to some rather
hard to understand bugs such as misdetecting an absent ethernet PHY (a
real bug i had), unstable data transfer etc. This might affect mx25,
mx35, mx50, mx51 and mx53 SoCs.
It's reasonable to expect that if the pullup value is specified, the
intention was to have it actually active, so we implicitly add the
needed bits.
This device is not using the proper demod IF. Instead of using the
IF macro, it is specifying a IF frequency. This doesn't work, as xc3028
needs to load an specific SCODE for the tuner. In this case, there's
no IF table for 5 MHz.
If the bus has been reset on resume, set the alternate setting to 0.
This should be the default value, but some devices crash or otherwise
misbehave if they don't receive a SET_INTERFACE request before any other
video control request.
Microdia's 0c45:6437 camera has been found to require this change or it
will stop sending video data after resume.

epoll can acquire recursively acquire ep->mtx on multiple "struct
eventpoll"s at once in the case where one epoll fd is monitoring another
epoll fd. This is perfectly OK, since we're careful about the lock
ordering, but it causes spurious lockdep warnings. Annotate the recursion
using mutex_lock_nested, and add a comment explaining the nesting rules
for good measure.
Recent versions of systemd are triggering this, and it can also be
demonstrated with the following trivial test program:

int main(void) {
int e1, e2;
struct epoll_event evt = {
.events = EPOLLIN

When compiling an i386_defconfig kernel with gcc-4.6.1-9.fc15.i686, I
noticed a warning about the asm operand for test_bit in kprobes'
can_boost. I discovered that this caused only the first long of
twobyte_is_boostable[] to be output.
Jakub filed and fixed gcc PR50571 to correct the warning and this output
issue. But to solve it for less current gcc, we can make kprobes'
twobyte_is_boostable[] non-const, and it won't be optimized out.

There are 2 situations wherein the xhci_ring* might not get freed:
- When xhci_ring_alloc() -> xhci_segment_alloc() returns NULL and
we goto the fail: label in xhci_ring_alloc. In this case, the ring
will not get kfreed.
- When the num_segs argument to xhci_ring_alloc is passed as 0 and
we try to free the rung after that.

If the usermode app does an ioctl over this serial device by

task state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and then calling schedule().
This will be woken up by the qt2_process_modem_status on URB
completion when the port_extra->shadowMSR is set to the new
modem status.
However, this could result in a lost wakeup scenario due to a race
in the logic in the qt2_ioctl(TIOCMIWAIT) loop and the URB completion
for new modem status in qt2_process_modem_status.
Due to this, the usermode app's task will continue to sleep despite a

The w83627ehf driver is improperly reporting thermal diode sensors as
type 2, instead of 3. This caused "sensors" and possibly other
monitoring tools to report these sensors as "transistor" instead of
"thermal diode".
Furthermore, diode subtype selection (CPU vs. external) is only
supported by the original W83627EHF/EHG. All later models only support
CPU diode type, and some (NCT6776F) don't even have the register in
question so we should avoid reading from it.

The issue is that the pointer value to the discovered source device was
used to break out of the loop, rather than the content of the pointer.
This still remains non-compliant as the revalidate domain code is
supposed to loop through all child expanders, and not stop at the first
one it finds that reports a change count. However, the design of this

Currently, the hvc_console_print() function drops console output if the

to allow a retry through returning -EAGAIN.
This change also affects the hvc_push() function. Both functions are
changed to handle -EAGAIN and to retry the put_chars() operation.
If a hvc backend returns -EAGAIN, the retry handling differs:
- hvc_console_print() spins to write the complete console output.
- hvc_push() behaves the same way as for returning 0.
Now hvc backends can indirectly control the way how console output is
handled through the hvc console layer.

During the association, the regulatory is updated by country IE
that reaps the previously found beacons. The impact is that
after a STA disconnects *or* when for any reason a regulatory
domain change happens the beacon hint flag is not cleared
therefore preventing future beacon hints to be learned.
This is important as a regulatory domain change or a restore
of regulatory settings would set back the passive scan and no-ibss

The name_len variable in CIFSFindNext is a signed int that gets set to
the resume_name_len in the cifs_search_info. The resume_name_len however
is unsigned and for some infolevels is populated directly from a 32 bit
value sent by the server.
If the server sends a very large value for this, then that value could
look negative when converted to a signed int. That would make that
value pass the PATH_MAX check later in CIFSFindNext. The name_len would
then be used as a length value for a memcpy. It would then be treated
as unsigned again, and the memcpy scribbles over a ton of memory.
Fix this by making the name_len an unsigned value in CIFSFindNext.

(Commit b4dabfc452a10 was probably meant to fix this, but it fixed
only the "Switch" name, not the "Volume" name.)
We need to report the entire jack state to the core jack code, not just

The checksum field in the EEPROM on HPPA is really not a
checksum but a signature (0x16d6). So allow 0x16d6 as the
matching checksum on HPPA systems.

2.6.32.y kernels.

0.90 metadata uses an unsigned 32bit number to count the number of
kilobytes used from each device.
This should allow up to 4TB per device.
However we multiply this by 2 (to get sectors) before casting to a
larger type, so sizes above 2TB get truncated.
Also we allow rdev->sectors to be larger than 4TB, so it is possible
for the array to be resized larger than the metadata can handle.
So make sure rdev->sectors never exceeds 4TB when 0.90 metadata is in
used.
Also the sanity check at the end of super_90_load should include level
1 as it used ->size too. (RAID0 and Linear don't use ->size at all).
DA850/OMAP-L138 EMAC driver uses random mac address instead of
a fixed one because the mac address is not stuffed into EMAC
platform data.
This patch provides a function which reads the mac address
stored in SPI flash (registered as MTD device) and populates the
EMAC platform data. The function which reads the mac address is
registered as a callback which gets called upon addition of MTD
device.
NOTE: In case the MAC address stored in SPI flash is erased, follow
the instructions at [1] to restore it.
Modifications in v2:
Guarded registering the mtd_notifier only when MTD is enabled.
Earlier this was handled using mtd_has_partitions() call, but
this has been removed in Linux v3.0.
Modifications in v3:
a. Guarded da850_evm_m25p80_notify_add() function and
da850evm_spi_notifier structure with CONFIG_MTD macros.
b. Renamed da850_evm_register_mtd_user() function to
da850_evm_setup_mac_addr() and removed the struct mtd_notifier
argument to this function.
c. Passed the da850evm_spi_notifier structure to register_mtd_user()
function.
Modifications in v4:
Moved the da850_evm_setup_mac_addr() function within the first
CONFIG_MTD ifdef construct.
We have hit a couple of customer bugs where they would like to
use those parameters to run an UP kernel - but both of those
options turn of important sources of interrupt information so
we end up not being able to boot. The correct way is to
pass in 'dom0_max_vcpus=1' on the Xen hypervisor line and
the kernel will patch itself to be a UP kernel.
If vmalloc page_fault happens inside of interrupt handler with interrupts
disabled then on exit path from exception handler when there is no pending
interrupts, the following code (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:112):
Solution is in setting XEN_vcpu_info_mask only when it should be set
according to
cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
but not clearing it if there isn't any pending events.

We ran into an issue where it looks like we're not properly ignoring a
pci device with a non-good status property when we walk the device tree
and instanciate the Linux side PCI devices.
However, the EEH init code does look for the property and disables EEH
on these devices. This leaves us in an inconsistent where we are poking
at a supposedly bad piece of hardware and RTAS will block our config
cycles because EEH isn't enabled anyway.
Since commit 57b150cce8e004ddd36330490a68bfb59b7271e9, desc->affinity

barrier variable is int, not long. This overflow caused another variable
override: "err" (in PV code) and "binfo" (in xenlinux code -

Suppose that several linear skbs of the same flow were received by GRO. They
were thus merged into one skb with a frag_list. Then a new skb of the same flow
arrives, but it is a paged skb with data starting in its frags[].
Before adding the skb to the frag_list skb_gro_receive() will of course adjust
the skb to throw away the headers. It correctly modifies the page_offset and
size of the frag, but it leaves incorrect information in the skb:
->data_len is not decreased at all.
->len is decreased only by headlen, as if no change were done to the frag.
Later in a receiving process this causes skb_copy_datagram_iovec() to return
-EFAULT and this is seen in userspace as the result of the recv() syscall.
In practice the bug can be reproduced with the sfc driver. By default the
driver uses an adaptive scheme when it switches between using
napi_gro_receive() (with skbs) and napi_gro_frags() (with pages). The bug is
reproduced when under rx load with enough successful GRO merging the driver
decides to switch from the former to the latter.
Manual control is also possible, so reproducing this is easy with netcat:
- on machine1 (with sfc): nc -l 12345 > /dev/null
- on machine2: nc machine1 12345 < /dev/zero
- on machine1:
echo 1 > /sys/module/sfc/parameters/rx_alloc_method # use skbs
echo 2 > /sys/module/sfc/parameters/rx_alloc_method # use pages
- See that nc has quit suddenly.

and to use a temporary variable.]

Currently we disallow GSO packets on the IPv6 forward path.
This patch fixes this.
Note that I discovered that our existing GSO MTU checks (e.g.,
IPv4 forwarding) are buggy in that they skip the check altogether,
when they really should be checking gso_size + header instead.
I have also been lazy here in that I haven't bothered to segment
the GSO packet by hand before generating an ICMP message. Someone
should add that to be 100% correct.

If we can't push the pending register windows onto the user's stack,
we disallow signal delivery even if the signal would be delivered on a
valid seperate signal stack.
Add a register window save area in the signal frame, and store any
unsavable windows there.
On sigreturn, if any windows are still queued up in the signal frame,
try to push them back onto the stack and if that fails we kill the
process immediately.
This allows the debug/tst-longjmp_chk2 glibc test case to pass.

Delete the 10 msec delay between the INIT and SIPI when starting

has similar code sequences without the delay.
Removing the delay reduces boot time by 40 sec. Every bit helps.
