When print_graph_entry() computes a function call entry event, it needs
to also check the next entry to guess if it matches the return event of
the current function entry.
In order to look at this next event, it needs to consume the current
entry before going ahead in the ring buffer.
However, if the current event that gets consumed is the last one in the
ring buffer head page, the ring_buffer may reuse the page for writers.
The consumed entry will then become invalid because of possible
racy overwriting.
Me must then handle this entry by making a copy of it.
The fix also applies on 2.6.30

Andrea Gelmini gave me a report that a kernel oops hit on a nilfs
filesystem with a 1KB block size when doing rsync.
This turned out to be caused by an inconsistency of dirty state
between a page and its buffers storing b-tree node blocks.
If the page had multiple buffers split over multiple logs, and if the
logs were written at a time, a dirty flag remained in the page even
every dirty flag in the buffers was cleared.
This will fix the failure by dropping the dirty flag properly for
pages with the discrete multiple b-tree nodes.

Currently, the ThinkPad-ACPI bay and dock drivers are completely
broken, and cause a NULL pointer derreference in kernel mode (and,
therefore, an OOPS) when they try to issue events (i.e. on dock,
undock, bay ejection, etc).
OTOH, the standard ACPI dock driver can handle the hotplug bays and
docks of the ThinkPads just fine (including batteries) as of 2.6.27.
In fact, it does a much better job of it than thinkpad-acpi ever did.
It is just not worth the hassle to find a way to fix this crap without
breaking the (deprecated) thinkpad-acpi dock/bay ABI. This is old,
deprecated code that sees little testing or use.
As a quick fix suitable for -stable backports, mark the thinkpad-acpi
bay and dock subdrivers as BROKEN in Kconfig. The dead code will be
removed by a later patch.
This fixes bugzilla #13669, and should be applied to 2.6.27 and later.

There's a hotplug problem in the way libsas allocates ports: it loops over the
available ports first trying to add to an existing for a wide port and
otherwise allocating the next free port. This scheme only works if the port
array is packed from zero, which fails if a port gets hot unplugged and the
array becomes sparse. In that case, a new port is formed even if there's a
wide port it should be part of. Fix this by creating two loops over all the
ports: the first to see if the phy should be part of a wide port and the
second to form a new port in an empty port slot.

In order to get the tun driver to account packets, we need to be
able to receive packets with destructors set. To be on the safe
side, I added an skb_orphan call for all protocols by default since
some of them (IP in particular) cannot handle receiving packets
destructors properly.
Now it seems that at least one protocol (CAN) expects to be able
to pass skb->sk through the rx path without getting clobbered.
So this patch attempts to fix this properly by moving the skb_orphan
call to where it's actually needed. In particular, I've added it
to skb_set_owner_[rw] which is what most users of skb->destructor
call.
This is actually an improvement for tun too since it means that
we only give back the amount charged to the socket when the skb
is passed to another socket that will also be charged accordingly.

As it stands skb fraglists can get past the check in dev_queue_xmit
if the skb is marked as GSO. In particular, if the packet doesn't
have the proper checksums for GSO, but can otherwise be handled by
the underlying device, we will not perform the fraglist check on it
at all.
If the underlying device cannot handle fraglists, then this will
break.
The fix is as simple as moving the fraglist check from the device
check into skb_gso_ok.
This has caused crashes with Xen when used together with GRO which
can generate GSO packets with fraglists.

When a slab cache uses SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, we must be careful when allocating
objects, since slab allocator could give a freed object still used by lockless
readers.
In particular, nf_conntrack RCU lookups rely on ct->tuplehash[xxx].hnnode.next
being always valid (ie containing a valid 'nulls' value, or a valid pointer to next
object in hash chain.)
kmem_cache_zalloc() setups object with NULL values, but a NULL value is not valid
for ct->tuplehash[xxx].hnnode.next.
Fix is to call kmem_cache_alloc() and do the zeroing ourself.
As spotted by Patrick, we also need to make sure lookup keys are committed to
memory before setting refcount to 1, or a lockless reader could get a reference
on the old version of the object. Its key re-check could then pass the barrier.

Commit 31207dab7d2e63795eb15823947bd2f7025b08e2
"Fix incorrect allocation of interrupt rev-map"
introduced a regression crashing on boot on machines using
a "DCR" based MPIC, such as the Cell blades.
The reason is that the irq host data structure is initialized
much later as a result of that patch, causing our calls to
mpic_map() do be done before we have a host setup.
Unfortunately, this breaks _mpic_map_dcr() which uses the
mpic->irqhost to get to the device node.
This fixes it by, instead, passing the device node explicitely
to mpic_map().
In testing a backport of the write_begin/write_end AOPs, a 10% re-read
regression was noticed when running iozone. This regression was
introduced because the old AOPs would always do a mark_page_accessed(page)
after the commit_write, but when the new AOPs where introduced, the only
place this was kept was in pagecache_write_end().
This patch does the same thing in the generic case as what is done in
pagecache_write_end(), which is just to mark the page accessed before we
do write_end().

It's really not right to use 'access_ok()', since that is meant for the
normal "get_user()" and "copy_from/to_user()" accesses, which are done
through the TLB, rather than through the page tables.
Why? access_ok() does both too few, and too many checks. Too many,
because it is meant for regular kernel accesses that will not honor the
'user' bit in the page tables, and because it honors the USER_DS vs
KERNEL_DS distinction that we shouldn't care about in GUP. And too few,
because it doesn't do the 'canonical' check on the address on x86-64,
since the TLB will do that for us.
So instead of using a function that isn't meant for this, and does
something else and much more complicated, just do the real rules: we
don't want the range to overflow, and on x86-64, we want it to be a
canonical low address (on 32-bit, all addresses are canonical).

vmscan: do not unconditionally treat zones that fail zone_reclaim() as full
On NUMA machines, the administrator can configure zone_reclaim_mode that
is a more targetted form of direct reclaim. On machines with large NUMA
distances for example, a zone_reclaim_mode defaults to 1 meaning that
clean unmapped pages will be reclaimed if the zone watermarks are not
being met. The problem is that zone_reclaim() failing at all means the
zone gets marked full.
This can cause situations where a zone is usable, but is being skipped
because it has been considered full. Take a situation where a large tmpfs
mount is occuping a large percentage of memory overall. The pages do not
get cleaned or reclaimed by zone_reclaim(), but the zone gets marked full
and the zonelist cache considers them not worth trying in the future.
This patch makes zone_reclaim() return more fine-grained information about
what occured when zone_reclaim() failued. The zone only gets marked full
if it really is unreclaimable. If it's a case that the scan did not occur
or if enough pages were not reclaimed with the limited reclaim_mode, then
the zone is simply skipped.
There is a side-effect to this patch. Currently, if zone_reclaim()
successfully reclaimed SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX, an allocation attempt would go
ahead. With this patch applied, zone watermarks are rechecked after
zone_reclaim() does some work.
This bug was introduced by commit 9276b1bc96a132f4068fdee00983c532f43d3a26
("memory page_alloc zonelist caching speedup") way back in 2.6.19 when the
zonelist_cache was introduced. It was not intended that zone_reclaim()
aggressively consider the zone to be full when it failed as full direct
reclaim can still be an option. Due to the age of the bug, it should be
considered a -stable candidate.

There are two reasons to expose the memory *a in the asm:

The TLB flushing functions on hppa, which causes PxTLB broadcasts on the system

Timer interrupts are excluded from being disabled during suspend. The
clock events code manages the disabling of clock events on its own
because the timer interrupt needs to be functional before the resume
code reenables the device interrupts.
The mfgpt timer request its interrupt without setting the IRQF_TIMER
flag so suspend_device_irqs() disables it as well which results in a
fatal resume failure.
Adding IRQF_TIMER to the interupt flags when requesting the mrgpt

It turns out that:
1. that AMD-based systems have two HT chains.
2. BIOS doesn't allocate resources for BAR 6 of devices under 8132 etc
3. that multi-peer-root patch will try to split root resources to peer
root resources according to PCI conf of NB
4. PCI core assigns unassigned resources, but they overlap with BARs
that are used by ioapic addr of io4 and 8132.
The reason: at that point ioapic address are not inserted yet. Solution
is to insert ioapic resources into the tree a bit earlier.

We want to set _spin_*:traceon:10 to set_ftrace_filter, it complains
with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful.
This is because ftrace_process_regex() returns the number of functions that
matched the pattern. If the number is not 0, this value is returned
by ftrace_regex_write() whereas we want to return the number of bytes
virtually written.
Also the file offset pointer is not updated in this case.
If the number of matched functions is lower than the number of bytes written
by the user, this results to a reprocessing of the string given by the user with
a lower size, leading to a malformed ftrace regex and then a -EINVAL returned.
So, this patch fixes it by returning 0 if no error occured.
The fix also applies on 2.6.30
Fixes an easily triggerable BUG() when setting process affinities.
Make sure to count the number of migratable tasks in the same place:
the root rt_rq. Otherwise the number doesn't make sense and we'll hit
the BUG in set_cpus_allowed_rt().
Also, make sure we only count tasks, not groups (this is probably
already taken care of by the fact that rt_se->nr_cpus_allowed will be 0
for groups, but be more explicit)
This fixes a bug that checkpoint count gets wrong on errors when
deleting a series of checkpoints.
The count error is persistent since the checkpoint count is stored on
disk. Some userland programs refer to the count via ioctl, and this
bugfix is needed to prevent malfunction of such programs.
Leandro Lucarella gave me a report that nilfs gets stuck after its
write function fails.
The problem turned out to be caused by bugs which leave writeback flag
on pages. This fixes the problem by ensuring to clear the writeback
flag in error path.

The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were:
- copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer
- do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN
(data from device) variety. This would overwrite
some or all of the kernel buffer
- copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space.
The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original
user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would
seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way
of detecting short reads but that was only added this century
and requires co-operation from the LLD.

This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this
semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and
enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ
requests.
It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new
from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it
difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst
drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block
layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer
mapping API.
zhou sf reported this regiression and tested this patch:
> Since the fixmap pages are assigned higher address to lower,
> text_poke() has to use it with inverted order (FIX_TEXT_POKE1
> to FIX_TEXT_POKE0).
I prefer to just invert the order of the fixmap declaration.
It's simpler and more straightforward.
Backward fixmaps seems to be used by both x86 32 and 64.
It's really rare but a nasty bug, because it only hurts when
instructions to patch are crossing a page boundary. If this
happens, the fixmap write accesses will spill on the following
fixmap, which may very well crash the system. And this does not
crash the system, it could leave illegal instructions in place.
Thanks Masami for finding this.
It seems to have crept into the 2.6.30-rc series, so this calls
for a -stable inclusion.
The merge of the 32- and 64-bit fixmap headers made a latent
bug on x86-64 a real one: with the right config settings
it is possible for FIX_OHCI1394_BASE to overlap the FIX_BTMAP_*
range.
The buffer for the consoles are unconditionally allocated at con_init()
time, which miss the creation of the vcs(a) devices.
Since 2.6.30 (commit 4995f8ef9d3aac72745e12419d7fbaa8d01b1d81, 'vcs:
hook sysfs devices into object lifetime instead of "binding"' to be
exact) these devices are no longer created at open() and removed on
close(), but controlled by the lifetime of the buffers.

Standard data flow for MMC/SD/SDIO cards requires that the mvsdio
controller be set for big endian operation. This is causing problems
with buffers which length is not a multiple of 4 bytes as the last
partial word doesn't get shifted all the way and stored properly in
memory. Let's compensate for this.
Gateway T6834c laptops need EAPD always on while the default behavior
for the STAC9205 reference board is to turn it off upon every HP plug.
By using the special "eapd" model, which is first introduced for Gateway
T1616 laptops for this same reason, this peculiarity can be properly
handled.
The recent rewrite of the codec parser for STAC9872 caused a regression
for some Sony VAIO models that don't give proper pin default configs
by BIOS. Even using model=vaio doesn't work because the pin definitions
are set after the pin overrides.
This patch fixes the pin definitions in patch_stac9872() to be put
in the right place before the pin overrides. Also the patch adds the
new quirk entry for VAIO F/S to have the correct pin default configs.
The capture buffer size with 64kB seems broken with CA0106.
At least, either the update timing or the DMA position is wrong,
and this screws up pulseaudio badly.
This patch restricts the max buffer size less than that to make life
a bit easier.
This patch (as1259b) makes ehci-hcd return the total number of bytes
transferred in urb->actual_length for Isochronous transfers.
Until now, the actual_length value was unaccountably left at 0.

commit b7af0bb ("USB: allow malformed LANGID descriptors") broke support
for devices without string descriptor support.
Reporting string descriptors is optional to USB devices, and a device
lets us know it can't deal with strings by responding to the LANGID
request with a STALL token.
The kernel handled that correctly before b7af0bb came in, but failed
hard if the LANGID was reported but broken. More than that, if a device
was not able to provide string descriptors, the LANGID was retrieved
over and over again at each string read request.
This patch changes the behaviour so that
a) the LANGID is only queried once
b) devices which can't handle string requests are not asked again
c) devices with malformed LANGID values have a sane fallback to 0x0409

The reworked Ethernet gadget has an RNDIS interop problem when used
with the CDC subset driver ... e.g. on PXA 2xx and 3xx hardware,
which currently has a hard time talking to MS-Windows hosts.
The issue is that Microsoft requires USB_CLASS_COMM. Fix by tweaking
the CDC subset driver to not switch to USB_CLASS_VENDOR_SPEC if RNDIS
is used in some other device configuration.
[ UPDATED: some "statements" were comma-terminated; fix that. ]
commit 1a1fab513734b3a4fca1bee8229e5ff7e1cb873c accidentally added the
device id to both tables in the driver, which causes problems as this is
only a single port device, not a multiple port device.
This patch (as1262) fixes a bug in usbfs: It refuses to accept
zero-length transfers, and it insists that the buffer pointer be valid
even if there is no data being transferred.
The patch also consolidates a bunch of repetitive access_ok() checks
into a single check, which incidentally fixes the lack of such a check
for Isochronous URBs.

Blue Microphones USB devices have an alternate setting that sends two
channels of data to the computer. Unfortunately, the descriptors of
that altsetting have a wrong channel setting, which means that any
recorded data from such a device has twice the sample rate from what
would be expected.
This patch adds a workaround to ignore that altsetting. Since these
devices have only one actual channel, no data is lost.
nfsd_open() gets an unrefcounted pointer to the current process's effective
credentials at the top of the function, then calls nfsd_setuser() via
fh_verify() - which may replace and destroy the current process's effective
credentials - and then passes the unrefcounted pointer to dentry_open() - but
the credentials may have been destroyed by this point.
Instead, the value from current_cred() should be passed directly to
dentry_open() as one of its arguments, rather than being cached in a variable.
Possibly fh_verify() should return the creds to use.

I recently discovered on my zalon that if the attachment fails because
of a bus misconfiguration (I scrapped my HVD array, so the card is now
unterminated) then the system oopses. The reason is that if
ncr_attach() returns NULL (signalling failure) that NULL is passed by
the goto failed straight into ncr_detach() which oopses.
The fix is just to return -ENODEV in this case.
