gcc correctly complains:
util/hist.c: In function ‘__hists__add_entry’:
util/hist.c:240:27: error: invalid type argument of ‘->’ (have ‘struct hist_entry’)
util/hist.c:241:23: error: invalid type argument of ‘->’ (have ‘struct hist_entry’)
for this new code:
+ if (he->ms.map != entry->ms.map) {
+ he->ms.map = entry->ms.map;
+ if (he->ms.map)
+ he->ms.map->referenced = true;
+ }
because "entry" is a "struct hist_entry", not a pointer to a struct.
In mainline, "entry" is a pointer to struct passed as argument to the function.
So this is broken during backporting. But obviously not compile tested.

It was possible to extract the robust list head address from a setuid
process if it had used set_robust_list(), allowing an ASLR info leak. This
changes the permission checks to be the same as those used for similar
info that comes out of /proc.
Running a setuid program that uses robust futexes would have had:
cred->euid != pcred->euid
cred->euid == pcred->uid
so the old permissions check would allow it. I'm not aware of any setuid
programs that use robust futexes, so this is just a preventative measure.

ISSUE:
After a USB cable is connect/disconnected, the system rarely freezes.
CAUSE:
Since the USB device controller cannot know to disconnect the USB cable, when
it is used without detecting VBUS by GPIO, the UDC driver does not notify to
USB Gadget.
Since USB Gadget cannot know to disconnect, a false setting occurred when the
USB cable is connected/disconnect repeatedly.
ISSUE:
If the return value of pch_udc_pcd_init() is False, the return value of
this function is unsettled.
Since pch_udc_pcd_init() always returns 0, there is not actually the issue.
CAUSE:
If pch_udc_pcd_init() is True, the variable, retval, is not set for an
appropriate value.
The xHCI 1.0 spec errata released on June 13, 2011, changes the ordering
that the xHCI registers are saved and restored in. It moves the
interrupt pending (IMAN) and interrupt control (IMOD) registers to be
saved and restored last. I believe that's because the host controller
may attempt to fetch the event ring table when interrupts are
re-enabled. Therefore we need to restore the event ring registers
before we re-enable interrupts.
This should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.37, that contain the

Chanho Min reported that when the boot loader transfers
control to the kernel, there may be pending interrupts
causing the UART to lock up in an eternal loop trying to
pick tokens from the FIFO (since the RX interrupt flag
indicates there are tokens) while in practice there are
no tokens - in fact there is only a pending IRQ flag.
This patch address the issue with a combination of two
patches suggested by Russell King that clears and mask
all interrupts at probe() and clears any pending error
and RX interrupts at port startup time.
We suspect the spurious interrupts are a side-effect of
switching the UART from FIFO to non-FIFO mode.

My 9ce70c0240d0 "memcg: fix deadlock by inverting lrucare nesting" put a
nasty little bug into v3.3's version of mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache(),
sometimes used for FUSE. Replacing __mem_cgroup_commit_charge_lrucare()
by __mem_cgroup_commit_charge(), I used the "pc" pointer set up earlier:
but it's for oldpage, and needs now to be for newpage. Once oldpage was
freed, its PageCgroupUsed bit (cleared above but set again here) caused
"Bad page state" messages - and perhaps worse, being missed from newpage.
(I didn't find this by using FUSE, but in reusing the function for tmpfs.)
Git commit 36409f6353fc2d7b6516e631415f938eadd92ffa "use generic RCU
page-table freeing code" introduced a tlb flushing bug. Partially revert
the above git commit and go back to s390 specific page table flush code.
For s390 the TLB can contain three types of entries, "normal" TLB
page-table entries, TLB combined region-and-segment-table (CRST) entries
and real-space entries. Linux does not use real-space entries which
leaves normal TLB entries and CRST entries. The CRST entries are
intermediate steps in the page-table translation called translation paths.
For example a 4K page access in a three-level page table setup will
create two CRST TLB entries and one page-table TLB entry. The advantage
of that approach is that a page access next to the previous one can reuse
the CRST entries and needs just a single read from memory to create the
page-table TLB entry. The disadvantage is that the TLB flushing rules are
more complicated, before any page-table may be freed the TLB needs to be
flushed.
In short: the generic RCU page-table freeing code is incorrect for the
CRST entries, in particular the check for mm_users < 2 is troublesome.
This is applicable to 3.0+ kernels.

When the Seagate Goflex USB3.0 device is attached to VIA xHCI
host, sometimes the device will downgrade mode to high speed.
By the USB analyzer, I found the device finished the link
training process and worked at superspeed mode. But the device
descriptor got from the device shows the device works at 2.1.
It is very strange and seems like the device controller of
Seagate Goflex has a little confusion.
The first 8 bytes of device descriptor should be:
12 01 00 03 00 00 00 09
But the first 8 bytes of wrong device descriptor are:
12 01 10 02 00 00 00 40
The wrong device descriptor caused the initialization of mass
storage failed. After a while, the device would be recognized
as a high speed device and works fine.
This patch will warm reset the device to fix the issue after
finding the bcdUSB field of device descriptor isn't 0x0300
but the speed mode of device is superspeed.

When xhci_mem_cleanup() is called, we can't be sure if the xHC is
actually halted. We can ask the xHC to halt by writing to the RUN bit
in the command register, but that might timeout due to a HW hang.
If the host controller is still running, we should not write zeroed
values to the event ring dequeue pointers or base tables, the DCBAA
pointers, or the command ring pointers. Eric Fu reports his VIA VL800
host accesses the event ring pointers after a failed register restore on
resume from suspend. The hypothesis is that the host never actually
halted before the register write to change the event ring pointer to
zero.
Remove all writes of zeroed values to pointer registers in
xhci_mem_cleanup(). Instead, make all callers of the function reset the
host controller first, which will reset those registers to zero.
xhci_mem_init() is the only caller that doesn't first halt and reset the
host controller before calling xhci_mem_cleanup().

This patch (as1532) fixes a mistake in the USB suspend code. When the
system is going to sleep, we should ignore errors in powering down USB
devices, because they don't really matter. The devices will go to low
power anyway when the entire USB bus gets suspended (except for
SuperSpeed devices; maybe they will need special treatment later).
However we should not ignore errors in suspending root hubs,
especially if the error indicates that the suspend raced with a wakeup
request. Doing so might leave the bus powered on while the system was
supposed to be asleep, or it might cause the suspend of the root hub's
parent controller device to fail, or it might cause a wakeup request
to be ignored.
The patch fixes the problem by ignoring errors only when the device in
question is not a root hub.

This patch (as1517b) fixes an error in the USB scatter-gather library.
The library code uses urb->dev to determine whether or nor an URB is
currently active; the completion handler sets urb->dev to NULL.
However the core unlinking routines need to use urb->dev. Since
unlinking always racing with completion, the completion handler must
not clear urb->dev -- it can lead to invalid memory accesses when a
transfer has to be cancelled.
This patch fixes the problem by getting rid of the lines that clear
urb->dev after urb has been submitted. As a result we may end up
trying to unlink an URB that failed in submission or that has already
completed, so an extra check is added after each unlink to avoid
printing an error message when this happens. The checks are updated
in both sg_complete() and sg_cancel(), and the second is updated to
match the first (currently it prints out unnecessary warning messages
if a device is unplugged while a transfer is in progress).

There are two issues here, one is that the device is generating
spurious very fast modem status line changes somewhere:
CTS becomes high then low 18µs later:
[121226.924373] ftdi_process_packet: prev rng=0 dsr=10 dcd=0 cts=6
[121226.924378] ftdi_process_packet: status=10 prev=00 diff=10
[121226.924382] ftdi_process_packet: now rng=0 dsr=10 dcd=0 cts=7
(wake_up_interruptible is called)
[121226.924391] ftdi_process_packet: prev rng=0 dsr=10 dcd=0 cts=7
[121226.924394] ftdi_process_packet: status=00 prev=10 diff=10
[121226.924397] ftdi_process_packet: now rng=0 dsr=10 dcd=0 cts=8
(wake_up_interruptible is called)
This wakes up the task in TIOCMIWAIT:
[121226.924405] ftdi_ioctl: 19451 rng=0->0 dsr=10->10 dcd=0->0 cts=6->8
(wait from 20:51:46 returns and observes both changes)
Which then calls TIOCMIWAIT again:
20:51:46.400239 ioctl(3, TIOCMIWAIT, 0x20) = 0
22:11:09.441818 ioctl(3, TIOCMGET, [TIOCM_DTR|TIOCM_RTS]) = 0
22:11:09.442812 ioctl(3, TIOCMIWAIT, 0x20) = -1 EIO (Input/output error)
(the second wake_up_interruptible takes effect and an I/O error occurs)
The other issue is that TIOCMIWAIT will wait forever (unless the task is
interrupted) if the device is removed.
This change removes the -EIO return that occurs if the counts don't
appear to have changed. Multiple counts may have been processed as
one or the waiting task may have started waiting after recording the
current count.
It adds a bool to indicate that the device has been removed so that
TIOCMIWAIT doesn't wait forever, and wakes up any tasks so that they can
return -EIO.

Handling of TIOCMIWAIT was changed by commit 1d749f9afa657f6ee9336b2bc1fcd750a647d157
USB: ftdi_sio.c: Use ftdi async_icount structure for TIOCMIWAIT, as in other drivers
FTDI_STATUS_B0_MASK does not indicate the changed modem status lines,
it indicates the value of the current modem status lines. An xor is
still required to determine which lines have changed.
The count was only being incremented if the line was high. The only
reason TIOCMIWAIT still worked was because the status packet is
repeated every 1ms, so the count was always changing. The wakeup
itself still ran based on the status lines changing.
This change fixes handling of updates to the modem status lines and
allows multiple processes to use TIOCMIWAIT concurrently.
Tested with two processes waiting on different status lines being
toggled independently.
Fix race between probe and open by making sure that the disconnected
flag is not cleared until all ports have been registered.
A call to tty_open while probe is running may get a reference to the
serial structure in serial_install before its ports have been
registered. This may lead to usb_serial_core calling driver open before
port is fully initialised.
With ftdi_sio this result in the following NULL-pointer dereference as
the private data has not been initialised at open:

Fix tick_nohz_restart() to not use a stale ktime_t "now" value when
calling tick_do_update_jiffies64(now).
If we reach this point in the loop it means that we crossed a tick
boundary since we grabbed the "now" timestamp, so at this point "now"
refers to a time in the old jiffy, so using the old value for "now" is
incorrect, and is likely to give us a stale jiffies value.
In particular, the first time through the loop the
tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) call is always a no-op, since the
caller, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(), will have already called
tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) with that "now" value.
Note that tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() already uses the correct
approach: when we notice we cross a jiffy boundary, grab a new
timestamp with ktime_get(), and *then* update jiffies.
Since commit 96104eda0169 ("RDMA/core: Add SRQ type field"), kernel
users of SRQs need to specify srq_type = IB_SRQT_BASIC in struct
ib_srq_init_attr, or else most low-level drivers will fail in
when srpt_add_one() calls ib_create_srq() and gets -ENOSYS.
(mlx4_ib works OK nearly all of the time, because it just needs
srq_type != IB_SRQT_XRC. And apparently nearly everyone using
ib_srpt is using mlx4 hardware)
When a process exec()'s, all the maps are retired, but we keep the hist
entries around which hold references to those outdated maps.
If the same library gets mapped in for which we have hist entries, a new
map will be created. But when we take a perf entry hit within that map,
we'll find the existing hist entry with the older map.
This causes symbol translations to be done incorrectly. For example,
the perf entry processing will lookup the correct uptodate map entry and
use that to calculate the symbol and DSO relative address. But later
when we update the histogram we'll translate the address using the
outdated map file instead leading to conditions such as out-of-range
offsets in symbol__inc_addr_samples().
Therefore, update the map of the hist_entry dynamically at lookup/
creation time.

since the total scatter gather count did not add up to the right
value resulting in an i/o error.

need for sparc64 to invoke it on the trap-return path. In fact, doing so
is a bug because if the trap occurred in the idle loop, this invocation
can result in lockdep-RCU failures. The problem is that RCU ignores idle
CPUs, and the sparc64 trap-return path to the softirq handlers fails to
tell RCU that the CPU must be considered non-idle while those handlers
are executing. This means that RCU is ignoring any RCU read-side critical
sections in those handlers, which in turn means that RCU-protected data
can be yanked out from under those read-side critical sections.
The shiny new lockdep-RCU ability to detect RCU read-side critical sections
that RCU is ignoring located this problem.
The fix is straightforward: Make sparc64 stop manually invoking the
softirq handlers.

Workaround dropped notifications in the iir register. Register reads
coincident with new interrupt notifications sometimes result in this
device clearing the interrupt event without reporting it in the read
data.
The serial core already has a heuristic for determining when a device
has an untrustworthy iir register. In this case when we apriori know
that the iir is faulty use a flag (UPF_BUG_THRE) to bypass the test and
force usage of the background timer.

The semantic of UPF_IIR_ONCE is only guaranteed to workaround the race
condition in the kt serial's iir register if the only source of
interrupts is THRE (fifo-empty) events. An modem status event at the
wrong time can again cause an iir read to drop the 'empty' status
leading to a hang. So, revert this in preparation for using the
existing "I don't trust my iir register" workaround in the 8250 core
(UART_BUG_THRE).

Suppose a multi-threaded task forks a new process (on cpu A), thus
bumping up the ref count on all the pages. While the fork is occurring
(and thus we have marked all the PTEs as read-only), another thread in
the original process (on cpu B) tries to write to a huge page, taking an
access violation from the write-protect and calling hugetlb_cow(). Now,
suppose the fork() fails. It will undo the COW and decrement the ref
count on the pages, so the ref count on the huge page drops back to 1.
Meanwhile hugetlb_cow() also decrements the ref count by one on the
original page, since the original address space doesn't need it any
more, having copied a new page to replace the original page. This
leaves the ref count at zero, and when we call unlock_page(), we panic.

The ST variants of the PL031 all require bit 26 in the control register
to be set before they work properly. Discovered this when testing on
the Nomadik board where it would suprisingly just stand still.
Commit 6e6f0a1f0fa6 ("panic: don't print redundant backtraces on oops")
causes a regression where no stack trace will be printed at all for the
case where kernel code calls panic() directly while not processing an
oops, and of course there are 100's of instances of this type of call.
The original commit executed the check (!oops_in_progress), but this will
always be false because just before the dump_stack() there is a call to
bust_spinlocks(1), which does the following:
void __attribute__((weak)) bust_spinlocks(int yes)
{
if (yes) {
++oops_in_progress;
The proper way to resolve the problem that original commit tried to
solve is to avoid printing a stack dump from panic() when the either of
the following conditions is true:
1) TAINT_DIE has been set (this is done by oops_end())
This indicates and oops has already been printed.
2) oops_in_progress > 1
This guards against the rare case where panic() is invoked
a second time, or in between oops_begin() and oops_end()

Michel Lespinasse cleaned up the futex calling conventions in commit 37a9d912b24f ("futex: Sanitize cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API").
But the ia64 implementation was subtly broken. Gcc does not know that
register "r8" will be updated by the fault handler if the cmpxchg
instruction takes an exception. So it feels safe in letting the
initialization of r8 slide to after the cmpxchg. Result: we always
return 0 whether the user address faulted or not.
Fix by moving the initialization of r8 into the __asm__ code so gcc
won't move it.

Bluetooth: uart-ldisc: Fix memory leak and remove destruct cb
We currently leak the hci_uart object if HCI_UART_PROTO_SET is never set
because the hci-destruct callback will then never be called. This fix
removes the hci-destruct callback and frees the driver internal private
hci_uart object directly on tty-close. We call hci_unregister_dev() here
so the hci-core will never call our callbacks again (except destruct).
Therefore, we can safely free the driver internal data right away and
set the destruct callback to NULL.

This patch is suitable for any -stable kernel, though it might not
apply cleanly before about 3.1.
Currently when ThumbEE is not enabled (!CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE) the ThumbEE
register states are not saved/restored at context switch. The default state
of the ThumbEE Ctrl register (TEECR) allows userspace accesses to the
ThumbEE Base Handler register (TEEHBR). This can cause unexpected behaviour
when people use ThumbEE on !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE kernels, as well as allowing
covert communication - eg between userspace tasks running inside chroot
jails.
This patch sets up TEECR in order to prevent user-space access to TEEHBR
when !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE. In this case, tasks are sent SIGILL if they try to
access TEEHBR.

The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to
acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When
_usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is
a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is
reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775.
The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could
be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from
within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync()
by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and
allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

The commit e399ce77e6e has broken the DVB ABI for xine:
The problem is that xine is expecting every event after a successful
FE_SET_FRONTEND ioctl to have a non-zero frequency parameter, regardless
of whether the tuning process has LOCKed yet. What used to happen is
that the events inherited the initial tuning parameters from the
FE_SET_FRONTEND call. However, the fepriv->parameters_out struct is now
not initialised until the status contains the FE_HAS_LOCK bit.
You might argue that this behaviour is intentional, except that if an
application other than xine uses the DVB adapter and manages to set the
parameters_out.frequency field to something other than zero, then xine
no longer has any problems until either the adapter is replugged or the
kernel modules reloaded. This can only mean that the
fepriv->parameters_out struct still contains the (stale) tuning
information from the previous application.

The driver frees the clock samples buffer before stopping the video

Move clock initialization/cleanup to uvc_video_enable() in order to free

size, is the true type for the data i.e. an io-virtual address
inidicating the engine's last processed descriptor.

TWL6030 family of PMIC use a shadow interrupt status register
while kernel processes the current interrupt event.
However, any write(0 or 1) to register INT_STS_A, INT_STS_B or
INT_STS_C clears all 3 interrupt status registers.
Since clear of the interrupt is done on 32k clk, depending on I2C
bus speed, we could in-adverently clear the status of a interrupt
status pending on shadow register in the current implementation.
This is due to the fact that multi-byte i2c write operation into
three seperate status register could result in multiple load
and clear of status and result in lost interrupts.
Instead, doing a single byte write to INT_STS_A register with 0x0
will clear all three interrupt status registers without the related
risk.
When a machine boots up, the TSC generally gets reset. However,
when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be
carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of
cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the
machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The
overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is
enough room to store the final answer.
We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and
remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing
the multiplication separately on the two components.
Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous
fix in __cycles_2_ns().

The task handoff notifier leaks task_struct since it never gets freed
after the callback returns NOTIFY_OK, which means it is responsible for
doing so.
It turns out the lowmemorykiller actually doesn't need this notifier at
all. It's used to prevent unnecessary killing by waiting for a thread
to exit as a result of lowmem_shrink(), however, it's possible to do
this in the same way the kernel oom killer works by setting TIF_MEMDIE
and avoid killing if we're still waiting for it to exit.
The kernel oom killer will already automatically set TIF_MEMDIE for
threads that are attempting to allocate memory that have a fatal signal.
The thread selected by lowmem_shrink() will have such a signal after the
lowmemorykiller sends it a SIGKILL, so this won't result in an
unnecessary use of memory reserves for the thread to exit.
This has the added benefit that we don't have to rely on
CONFIG_PROFILING to prevent needlessly killing tasks.
