I have observed cases where the implicit stop_machine_destroy() done by
stop_machine() hangs while destroying the workqueues, specifically in
kthread_stop(). This seems to be because timer ticks are not restarted
until after stop_machine() returns.
Fortunately stop_machine provides a facility to pre-create/post-destroy
the workqueues so use this to ensure that workqueues are only destroyed
after everything is really up and running again.
I only actually observed this failure with 2.6.30. It seems that newer
kernels are somehow more robust against doing kthread_stop() without timer
interrupts (I tried some backports of some likely looking candidates but
did not track down the commit which added this robustness). However this
change seems like a reasonable belt&braces thing to do.

If Xen wants to return to a 32b usermode with sysret it must use the
right form. When using VCGF_in_syscall to trigger this, it looks at
the code segment and does a 32b sysret if it is FLAT_USER_CS32.
However, this is different from __USER32_CS, so it fails to return
properly if we use the normal Linux segment.
So avoid the whole mess by dropping VCGF_in_syscall and simply use
plain iret to return to usermode.

On resume irq_info[*].evtchn is reset to 0 since event channel mappings
are not preserved over suspend/resume. The other contents of irq_info
is preserved to allow rebind_evtchn_irq() to function.
However when a device resumes it will try to unbind from the
previous IRQ (e.g. blkfront goes blkfront_resume() -> blkif_free() ->
unbind_from_irqhandler() -> unbind_from_irq()). This will fail due to the
check for VALID_EVTCHN in unbind_from_irq() and the IRQ is leaked. The
device will then continue to resume and allocate a new IRQ, eventually
leading to find_unbound_irq() panic()ing.
Fix this by changing unbind_from_irq() to handle teardown of interrupts
which have type!=IRQT_UNBOUND but are not currently bound to a specific
event channel.

The existing error handling has a few issues:
- If freeze_processes() fails it exits with shutting_down = SHUTDOWN_SUSPEND.
- If dpm_suspend_noirq() fails it exits without resuming xenbus.
- If stop_machine() fails it exits without resuming xenbus or calling
dpm_resume_end().
- xs_suspend()/xs_resume() and dpm_suspend_noirq()/dpm_resume_noirq() were not
nested in the obvious way.
Fix by ensuring each failure case goto's the correct label. Treat a failure of
stop_machine() as a cancelled suspend in order to follow the correct resume
path.

tick_resume() is never called on secondary processors. Presumably this
is because they are offlined for suspend on native and so this is
normally taken care of in the CPU onlining path. Under Xen we keep all
CPUs online over a suspend.

"pwm invert" bit in the fan behavior configuration register. On my PowerBook
G4, this results in the fans going to full speed at low temperature and
shutting off at high temperature because the pwm invert bit is supposed to be

Therefore, record the pwm invert bit at driver load time, and write the bit
into the fan behavior control register. This restores correct behavior on my

Windfarm SMU control is explicitly missing support for a second CPU pump in G5 PowerMacs. Such machines actually exist (specifically Quads with a second pump), so this patch adds detection for it.
Most callers of pmd_none_or_clear_bad() check whether the target page is
in a hugepage or not, but walk_page_range() do not check it. So if we
read /proc/pid/pagemap for the hugepage on x86 machine, the hugepage
memory is leaked as shown below. This patch fixes it.
Details
=======
My test program (leak_pagemap) works as follows:
- creat() and mmap() a file on hugetlbfs (file size is 200MB == 100 hugepages,)
- read()/write() something on it,
- call page-types with option -p (walk around the page tables),
- munmap() and unlink() the file on hugetlbfs
Most callers of pmd_none_or_clear_bad() check whether the target page is
in a hugepage or not, but mincore() and walk_page_range() do not check it.
So if we use mincore() on a hugepage on x86 machine, the hugepage memory
is leaked as shown below. This patch fixes it by extending mincore()
system call to support hugepages.
Details
=======
My test program (leak_mincore) works as follows:
- creat() and mmap() a file on hugetlbfs (file size is 200MB == 100 hugepages,)
- read()/write() something on it,
- call mincore() for first ten pages and printf() the values of *vec
- munmap() and unlink() the file on hugetlbfs
Return values in *vec from mincore() are set to 0, while the hugepage
should be in memory, and 1 hugepage is still accounted as used while
there is no file on hugetlbfs.

Setting fops and private data outside of the mutex at debugfs file
creation introduces a race where the files can be opened with the wrong
file operations and private data. It is easy to trigger with a process
waiting on file creation notification.
devpts_get_tty() assumes that the inode passed in is associated with a valid
pty. But if the only reference to the pty is via a bind-mount, the inode
passed to devpts_get_tty() while valid, would refer to a pty that no longer
exists.
With a lot of debug effort, Grzegorz Nosek developed a small program (see
below) to reproduce a crash on recent kernels. This crash is a regression
introduced by the commit:
A write intent bitmap can be removed from an array while the
array is active.
When this happens, all IO is suspended and flushed before the
bitmap is removed.
However it is possible that bitmap_daemon_work is still running to
clear old bits from the bitmap. If it is, it can dereference the
bitmap after it has been freed.
So introduce a new mutex to protect bitmap_daemon_work and get it
before destroying a bitmap.
The call to migrate_page() will cause the page->private field to be
cleared.
Also fix up the locking around the page->private transfer, so that we ensure
that calls to nfs_page_find_request() don't end up racing.
Finally, fix up a double free bug: nfs_unlock_request() already calls
nfs_release_request() for us...
A specially-crafted Hierarchical File System (HFS) filesystem could cause
a buffer overflow to occur in a process's kernel stack during a memcpy()
call within the hfs_bnode_read() function (at fs/hfs/bnode.c:24). The
attacker can provide the source buffer and length, and the destination
buffer is a local variable of a fixed length. This local variable (passed
as "&entry" from fs/hfs/dir.c:112 and allocated on line 60) is stored in
the stack frame of hfs_bnode_read()'s caller, which is hfs_readdir().
Because the hfs_readdir() function executes upon any attempt to read a
directory on the filesystem, it gets called whenever a user attempts to
inspect any filesystem contents.

USB drivers that create character devices call usb_register_dev in their
probe function. This associates the usb_interface device with that minor
number and creates the character device and announces it to the world.
However, the driver's probe function is called before the new
usb_interface is added to the driver's klist_devices.
This is a problem because userspace will respond to the character device
creation announcement by opening the character device. The driver's open
function will the call usb_find_interface to find the usb_interface
associated with that minor number. usb_find_interface will walk the
driver's list of devices and find the usb_interface with the matching
minor number.
Because the announcement happens before the usb_interface is added to the
driver's klist_devices, a race condition exists. A straightforward fix
is to walk the list of devices on usb_bus_type instead since the device
is added to that list before the announcement occurs.
bus_find_device calls get_device to bump the reference count on the found
device. It is arguable that the reference count should be dropped by the
caller of usb_find_interface instead of usb_find_interface, however,
the current users of usb_find_interface do not expect this.
The original version of this patch only matched against minor number
instead of driver and minor number. This version matches against both.
This patch (as1311) fixes a problem in usb-storage: Some devices are
pretty broken when it comes to reporting sense data. The information
they send back indicates that they have more than 18 bytes of sense
data available, but when the system asks for more than 18 they fail or
hang. The symptom is that probing fails with multiple resets.
The patch adds a new BAD_SENSE flag to indicate that usb-storage
should never ask for more than 18 bytes of sense data. The flag can
be set in an unusual_devs entry or via the "quirks=" module parameter,
and it is set automatically whenever a REQUEST SENSE command for more
than 18 bytes fails or times out.
An unusual_devs entry is added for the Agfa photo frame, which uses a
Prolific chip having this bug.

These drivers inherited from the older 'hpt366' IDE driver the buggy timing
register masks in their set_piomode() metods. As a result, too low command
cycle active time is programmed for slow PIO modes. Quite fortunately, it's
later "fixed up" by the set_dmamode() methods which also "helpfully" reprogram
the command timings, usually to PIO mode 4; unfortunately, setting an UltraDMA
mode #N also reprograms already set PIO data timings, usually to MWDMA mode #
max(N, 2) timings...
However, the drivers added some breakage of their own too: the bit that they
set/clear to control the FIFO is sometimes wrong -- it's actually the MSB of
the command cycle setup time; also, setting it in DMA mode is wrong as this
bit is only for PIO actually and clearing it for PIO modes is not needed as
no mode in any timing table has it set...
Fix all this, inverting the masks while at it, like in the 'hpt366' and
'pata_hpt366' drivers; bump the drivers' versions, accounting for recent
patches that forgot to do it...

When the kernel is compiled with -pg for tracing GCC 4.4.x inserts
stack alignment of a function _before_ the mcount prologue if the
-march=pentium-mmx is set and -mtune=generic is not set. This breaks
the assumption of the function graph tracer which expects that the
mcount prologue
push %ebp
mov %esp, %ebp
is the first stack operation in a function because it needs to modify
the function return address on the stack to trap into the tracer
before returning to the real caller.
so the tracer modifies the copy of the return address which is stored
after the stack alignment and therefor does not trap the return which
in turn breaks the call chain logic of the tracer and leads to a
kernel panic.
Aside of the fact that the generated code is horrible for no good
reason other -march -mtune options generate the expected:
push %ebp
mov %esp,%ebp
and $0xfffffff0,%esp
which does the same and keeps everything intact.
After some experimenting we found out that this problem is restricted
to gcc4.4.x and to the following -march settings:
By adding -mtune=generic the code generator produces always the
expected code.
So forcing -mtune=generic when CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=y is not
pretty, but at the moment the only way to prevent that the kernel
trips over gcc-shrooms induced code madness.
Most distro kernels have CONFIG_X86_GENERIC=y anyway which forces
-mtune=generic as well so it will not impact those.

memory. It applies prefixing, adds the start address of the guest memory in
user, and then calls copy_from_user. Previous code was obviously broken for
two reasons:
- prefixing should not be applied here. The current prefix register is
going to be updated soon, and the address we're looking for will be
0..8k after we've updated the register
- we're adding the guest origin (gmsor) twice: once in subject code
and once in copy_from_guest
With kuli, we did not hit this problem because (a) we were lucky with
previous prefix register content, and (b) our guest memory was mmaped
very low into user address space.

The timer stop callback can be called from snd_timer_interrupt(), which
is called from the hrtimer callback. Since hrtimer_cancel() waits for
the callback completion, this eventually results in a lock-up.
This patch fixes the problem by just toggling a flag at stop callback
and call hrtimer_cancel() later.
Without this we have no gaurantee of the integrity of the
EEPROM and are likely to encounter a lot of bogus bug reports
due to actual issues on the EEPROM. With the EEPROM checksum
check in place we can easily rule those issues out.
If you run patch during a revert *you* have a card with a busted
EEPROM and only older kernel will support that concoction. This
patch is a trade off between not accepitng bogus EEPROMs and
avoiding bogus bug reports allowing developers to focus instead
on real concrete issues.
If stable keeps bogus bug reports because of a possibly busted EEPROM
feel free to apply this there too.

As a holdover from earlier code when we used to set
the power limit to '0' after a reset to configure the
default transmit power, ath5k interprets txpower=0 as
12.5 dBm. Fix that by just passing 0 through.

The range check in the sprom image parser hex2sprom() is broken.
One sprom word is 4 hex characters.
This fixes the check and also adds much better sanity checks to the code.
We better make sure the image is OK by doing some sanity checks to avoid

Bug reporter noted their system with an ASUS P4S800 motherboard would
hang when rebooting unless reboot=b was specified. Their dmidecode
didn't contain descriptive System Information for Manufacturer or
Product Name, so I used their Base Board Information to create a
reboot quirk patch. The bug reporter confirmed this patch resolves
the reboot hang.

On a multi-node x3950M2 system, there's a slight oddity in the
PCI device tree for all secondary nodes:
30:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1)
\-33:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01)
\-34:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
...as compared to the primary node:
00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1)
\-01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ES1000 (rev 02)
03:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01)
\-04:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
In both nodes, the LSI RAID controller hangs off a CalIOC2
device, but on the secondary nodes, the BIOS hides the VGA
device and substitutes the device tree ending with the disk
controller.
It would seem that Calgary devices don't necessarily appear at
the top of the PCI tree, which means that the current code to
find the Calgary IOMMU that goes with a particular device is
buggy.
Rather than walk all the way to the top of the PCI
device tree and try to match bus number with Calgary descriptor,
the code needs to examine each parent of the particular device;
if it encounters a Calgary with a matching bus number, simply
use that.
Otherwise, we BUG() when the bus number of the Calgary doesn't
match the bus number of whatever's at the top of the device tree.
Extra note: This patch appears to work correctly for the x3950
that came before the x3950 M2.

For some devices the ACPI table may define unity map
requirements which must me met when the IOMMU is enabled. So
we need to attach devices to their domains as early as
possible so that these mappings are in place when needed.
This patch assigns the domains right after they are
allocated. Otherwise this can result in I/O page faults
before a driver binds to a device and BIOS is still using
it.
When waking affine, check for an idle shared cache, and if
found, wake to that CPU/sibling instead of the waker's CPU.
This improves pgsql+oltp ramp up by roughly 8%. Possibly more
for other loads, depending on overlap. The trade-off is a
roughly 1% peak downturn if tasks are truly synchronous.

Impose a clear locking design on the note_new_gpnum()
function's use of the ->gpnum counter. This is done by updating
rdp->gpnum only from the corresponding leaf rcu_node structure's
rnp->gpnum field, and even then only under the protection of
that same rcu_node structure's ->lock field. Performance and
scalability are maintained using a form of double-checked
locking, and excessive spinning is avoided by use of the
spin_trylock() function. The use of spin_trylock() is safe due
to the fact that CPUs who fail to acquire this lock will try
again later. The hierarchical nature of the rcu_node data
structure limits contention (which could be limited further if
need be using the RCU_FANOUT kernel parameter).
Without this patch, obscure but quite possible races could
result in a quiescent state that occurred during one grace
period to be accounted to the following grace period, causing
this following grace period to end prematurely. Not good!
Impose a clear locking design on the rcu_process_gp_end()
function's use of the ->completed counter. This is done by
creating a ->completed field in the rcu_node structure, which
can safely be accessed under the protection of that structure's
lock. Performance and scalability are maintained by using a
form of double-checked locking, so that rcu_process_gp_end()
only acquires the leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock if a grace
period has recently ended.
This fix reduces rcutorture failure rate by at least two orders
of magnitude under heavy stress with force_quiescent_state()
being invoked artificially often. Without this fix,
unsynchronized access to the ->completed field can cause
rcu_process_gp_end() to advance callbacks whose grace period has
not yet expired. (Bad idea!)
Impose a clear locking design on non-NO_HZ handling of the
->completed counter. This increases the distance between the
RCU and the CPU-hotplug mechanisms.
Queueing to receive an ISO packet with a payload length of zero

This patch fixes three problems in the handling of the
EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl:
1. In current EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, there are read access mode checks for
original and donor files, but they allow the illegal write access to
donor file, since donor file is overwritten by original file data. To
fix this problem, change access mode checks of original (r->r/w) and
donor (r->w) files.
2. Disallow the use of donor files that have a setuid or setgid bits.
3. Call mnt_want_write() and mnt_drop_write() before and after
ext4_move_extents() calling to get write access to a mount.
We cannot rely on buffer dirty bits during fsync because pdflush can come
before fsync is called and clear dirty bits without forcing a transaction
commit. What we do is that we track which transaction has last changed
the inode and which transaction last changed allocation and force it to
disk on fsync.
