The driver hangs when doing `rmmod mpt2sas` if there are any
IR volumes present.The hang is due the scsi midlayer trying to access the
IR volumes after the driver releases controller resources. Perhaps when
scsi_remove_host is called,the scsi mid layer is sending some request.
This doesn't occur for bare drives becuase the driver is already reporting
those drives deleted prior to calling mpt2sas_base_detach.
To solve this issue, we need to delete the volumes as well.

ACPI deep C-state entry had a long standing bug/missing feature, wherein we were sending
resched IPIs when an idle CPU is in mwait based deep C-state. Only mwait based C1 was using
the write to the monitored address to wake up mwait'ing CPU.
This patch changes the code to retain TS_POLLING bit if we are entering an mwait based
deep C-state.
The patch has been verified to reduce the number of resched IPIs in general and also
improves the performance/power on workloads with low system utilization (i.e., when mwait based
deep C-states are being used).

ibmphp driver currently maps only 1KB of ebda memory area into kernel address
space during driver initialization. This causes kernel oops when the driver is
modprobe'd and it accesses memory beyond 1KB within ebda segment. The first
byte of ebda segment actually stores the length of the ebda region in
Kilobytes. Hence make use of the length parameter and map the entire ebda
region.
Mike Cui reported that his system with an NVIDIA MCP79 (aka MCP7A)
chipset stopped working with 2.6.32. The problem appears to be that
2.6.32 now enables the FPDMA auto-activate optimization in the ahci
driver. The drive works fine with this enabled on an Intel AHCI so
this appears to be a chipset bug. Since MCP79 is a fairly recent
NVIDIA chipset and we don't have any info on whether any other NVIDIA
chipsets have this issue, disable FPDMA AA optimization on all NVIDIA

The HT extension channel settings require priv->staging_rxon.channel to be
accurate. However, iwl_set_rxon_ht was being called before iwl_set_rxon_channel
and thus HT40 could be broken unless another call to iwl_mac_config came in.
This problem was recently introduced by "iwlwifi: Fix to set correct ht

The particular setting in which I noticed this was monitor mode:
iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up
./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40-
#./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40-
tcpdump -i wlan0 -y IEEE802_11_RADIO
would only catch HT40 packets if I issued the IW command twice.
From visual inspection, iwl_set_rxon_channel does not depend on
iwl_set_rxon_ht, so simply swapping them should be safe and fixes this problem.

This fixes bug #15184:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15184
This patch fixes two bugs that revolve around the miscalculation and
misuse of the variable 'overhead_size'. 'overhead_size' is the size of
the various header structures used during communication.
The first bug is the use of 'sizeof' with the pointer of a structure
instead of the structure itself - resulting in the wrong size being
computed. This is then used in a check to see if the payload
(data_size) would be to large for the preallocated structure. Since the
bug produces a smaller value for the overhead, it was possible for the
structure to be breached. (Although the current users of the code do
not currently send enough data to trigger this bug.)
The second bug is that the 'overhead_size' value is used to compute how
much of the preallocated space should be cleared before populating it
with fresh data. This should have simply been 'sizeof(struct cn_msg)'
not overhead_size. The fact that 'overhead_size' was computed
incorrectly made this problem "less bad" - leaving only a pointer's
worth of space at the end uncleared. Thus, this bug was never producing
a bad result, but still needs to be fixed - especially now that the
value is computed correctly.

Commit c7ab5ef9bcd281135c21b4732c9be779585181be entitled "b43: implement
short slot and basic rate handling" reduced the transmit throughput for
my BCM4311 device from 18 Mb/s to 0.7 Mb/s. The basic rate handling
portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling.
Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never
called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the
value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain
the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value
of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value
in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased
performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic
improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s.
Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the
MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating
in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.

The i_blocks field of an eCryptfs inode cannot be trusted, but
generic_fillattr() uses it to instantiate the blocks field of a stat()
syscall when a filesystem doesn't implement its own getattr(). Users
have noticed that the output of du is incorrect on newly created files.
This patch creates ecryptfs_getattr() which calls into the lower
filesystem's getattr() so that eCryptfs can use its kstat.blocks value
after calling generic_fillattr(). It is important to note that the
block count includes the eCryptfs metadata stored in the beginning of
the lower file plus any padding used to fill an extent before
encryption.
The cached read and write paths initialize fattr->time_start in their
setup procedures. The value of fattr->time_start is propagated to
read_cache_jiffies by nfs_update_inode(). Subsequent calls to
nfs_attribute_timeout() will then use a good time stamp when
computing the attribute cache timeout, and squelch unneeded GETATTR
calls.
Since the direct I/O paths erroneously leave the inode's
fattr->time_start field set to zero, read_cache_jiffies for that inode
is set to zero after any direct read or write operation. This
triggers an otw GETATTR or ACCESS call to update the file's attribute
and access caches properly, even when the NFS READ or WRITE replies
have usable post-op attributes.
Make sure the direct read and write setup code performs the same fattr
initialization as the cached I/O paths to prevent unnecessary GETATTR
calls.
This was likely introduced by commit 0e574af1 in 2.6.15, which appears
to add new nfs_fattr_init() call sites in the cached read and write
paths, but not in the equivalent places in fs/nfs/direct.c. A
subsequent commit in the same series, 33801147, introduces the
fattr->time_start field.
Interestingly, the direct write reschedule path already has a call to
nfs_fattr_init() in the right place.
For usec delays use udelay instead of scheduling, this should
allow reclocking to happen faster. This also was the cause
of reported 33s delays at bootup on certain systems.

Since the rewrite of the CPU idle governor in 2.6.32, two laptops have
surfaced where the BIOS advertises a C2 power state, but for some reason
this state is not functioning (as verified in both cases by powertop
before the patch in .32).
The old governor had the accidental behavior that if a non-working state
was chosen too many times, it would end up falling back to C1. The new
governor works differently and this accidental behavior is no longer
there; the result is a high temperature on these two machines.
This patch adds these 2 machines to the DMI table for C state anomalies;
by just not using C2 both these machines are better off (the TSC can be
used instead of the pm timer, giving a performance boost for example).

I notice that the processcompl_compat() function seems to be leaking the

I think that the calling convention is fundamentally buggered. The
caller is the one that did the "reap_as()" to get the as thing, the
caller should be the one to free it too.
Freeing it in the caller also means that it very clearly always gets
freed, and avoids the need for any "free in the error case too".

Discovered in parallel with more testing and analysis by Kees Schoenmakers
as follows:
I ran into an NetMos 9835 serial pci board which behaves a little
different than the standard. This type of expansion board is very common.
"Standard" 8250 compatible devices clear the 'UART_LST_TEMT" bit together
with the "UART_LSR_THRE" bit when writing data to the device.
The NetMos device does it slightly different
I believe that the TEMT bit is coupled to the shift register. The problem
is that after writing data to the device and very quickly after that one
does call serial8250_tx_empty, it returns the wrong information.
My patch makes the test more robust (and solves the problem) and it does
not affect the already correct devices.

We may yet need to quirk this but now we know which chips we have a
way to do that should we find this breaks some other 8250 clone with

size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through

resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces
will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging
the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it.
Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global
hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a
new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for
now as other namespaces are not handled currently.

Expectation hashtable size was simply glued to a variable with no code

Make "expect_hashsize" readonly.
nf_conntrack_cachep is currently shared by all netns instances, but
because of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU special semantics, this is wrong.
If we use a shared slab cache, one object can instantly flight between
one hash table (netns ONE) to another one (netns TWO), and concurrent
reader (doing a lookup in netns ONE, 'finding' an object of netns TWO)
can be fooled without notice, because no RCU grace period has to be
observed between object freeing and its reuse.
We dont have this problem with UDP/TCP slab caches because TCP/UDP
hashtables are global to the machine (and each object has a pointer to
its netns).
If we use per netns conntrack hash tables, we also *must* use per netns
conntrack slab caches, to guarantee an object can not escape from one
namespace to another one.

same union is used.
The ts field is a struct list_head, and is currently initialized in the

filter is set up, the sec field is played with, thus if a PES filter
needs to be set up after that the ts field will be corrupted, causing a

This code was written long ago when it was not possible to
reshape a degraded array. Now it is so the current level of
degraded-ness needs to be taken in to account. Also newly addded
devices should only reduce degradedness if they are deemed to be
in-sync.
In particular, if you convert a RAID5 to a RAID6, and increase the
number of devices at the same time, then the 5->6 conversion will
make the array degraded so the current code will produce a wrong
value for 'degraded' - "-1" to be precise.
If the reshape runs to completion end_reshape will calculate a correct
new value for 'degraded', but if a device fails during the reshape an
incorrect decision might be made based on the incorrect value of
"degraded".
This patch is suitable for 2.6.32-stable and if they are still open,
2.6.31-stable and 2.6.30-stable as well.
It was recently pointed out that the NFSERR_SERVERFAULT error, which is
designed to inform the user of a serious internal error on the server, was
being mapped to an error value that is internal to the kernel.
This patch maps it to the error EREMOTEIO, which is exported to userland
through errno.h.
The VM/VFS does not allow mapping->a_ops->invalidatepage() to fail.
Unfortunately, nfs_wb_page_cancel() may fail if a fatal signal occurs.
Since the NFS code assumes that the page stays mapped for as long as the
writeback is active, we can end up Oopsing (among other things).
The only safe fix here is to convert nfs_wait_on_request(), so as to make
it uninterruptible (as is already the case with wait_on_page_writeback()).
cifs_from_ucs2 returns the length of the converted name, including the
length of the NULL terminator. We don't want to include the NULL
terminator in the dentry name length however since that'll throw off the
hash calculation for the dentry cache.
I believe that this is the root cause of several problems that have
cropped up recently that seem to be papered over with the "noserverino"
mount option. More confirmation of that would be good, but this is
clearly a bug and it fixes at least one reproducible problem that
was reported.
This patch fixes at least this reproducer in this kernel.org bug:
This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg.
80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before
they start. This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below
1280K will kill every process.
To test, do:
'ulimit -s 15; ls'
before and after the patch is applied. Before it's applied, 'ls' should
be killed. After the patch is applied, 'ls' should no longer be killed.
A stack limit of 15KB since it's small enough to trigger 20*PAGE_SIZE.
Also 15KB not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which is a trickier case to handle
correctly with this code.
4K pages should be fine to test with.

We want to be sure that compiler fetches the limit variable only
once, so add helpers for fetching current and maximal resource
limits which do that.
Add them to sched.h (instead of resource.h) due to circular dependency
sched.h->resource.h->task_struct
Alternative would be to create a separate res_access.h or similar.
It is possible (and expected) for there to be holes in the h->drv[]
array, that is, some elements may be NULL pointers. cciss_seq_show
needs to be made aware of this possibility to avoid an Oops.
To reproduce the Oops which this fixes:
1) Create two "arrays" in the Array Configuratino Utility and
several logical drives on each array.
2) cat /proc/driver/cciss/cciss* in an infinite loop
3) delete some of the logical drives in the first "array."

Thanks Thomas and Christoph for testing and review.
I removed 'smp_wmb()' before up_write from the previous patch,
since up_write() should have necessary ordering constraints.
(I.e. the change of s_frozen is visible to others after up_write)
I'm quite sure the change is harmless but if you are uncomfortable
with Tested-by/Reviewed-by on the modified patch, please remove them.
If MS_RDONLY, freeze_bdev should just up_write(s_umount) instead of
deactivate_locked_super().
Also, keep sb->s_frozen consistent so that remount can check the frozen state.
Otherwise a crash reported here can happen:

This patch should be applied for 2.6.32 stable series, too.

On managed CPUs the cpufreq.c core will call driver->exit(cpu) on the
managed cpus and powernow_k8 will free the core's data.
Later driver->get(cpu) function might get called trying to read out the
current freq of a managed cpu and the NULL pointer check does not work on
the freed object -> better set it to NULL.
->get() is unsigned and must return 0 as invalid frequency.

On my AMD780V chipset, hda_intel.c can crash the kernel with a divide by
zero
for as-yet unknown reasons. A simple check for zero prevents it, though
the problem that causes it remains. Since the workaround is harmless and
won't affect anyone except victims of this bug, it should be safe;
moreover,
because this crash can be triggered by a user-mode application, there are
denial of service implications on the systems affected by the bug without
the patch.
If the regulator constraints are empty and there is no voltage
reported then nothing will be added to the text displayed for the
constraints, leading to random stack data being printed. This is
unlikely to happen for practical regulators since most will at
least report a voltage but should still be fixed.

Before changing the status of a buffer with a pending write we will await
upon a new flush for that buffer. So we can take advantage of any flushes
posted whilst the buffer is active and pending processing by the GPU, by
clearing its write_domain and updating its last_rendering_seqno -- thus
saving a potential flush in deep queues and improves flushing behaviour
upon eviction for both GTT space and fences.
In order to reduce the time spent searching the active list for matching
write_domains, we move those to a separate list whose elements are
the buffers belong to the active/flushing list with pending writes.
Orignal patch by Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>, forward-ported
by me.
In addition to better performance, this also fixes a real bug. Before
this changes, i915_gem_evict_everything didn't work as advertised. When
the gpu was actually busy and processing request, the flush and subsequent
wait would not move active and dirty buffers to the inactive list, but
just to the flushing list. Which triggered the BUG_ON at the end of this
function. With the more tight dirty buffer tracking, all currently busy and
dirty buffers get moved to the inactive list by one i915_gem_flush operation.
I've left the BUG_ON I've used to prove this in there.

An untiled framebuffer must be aligned to 64k. This is normally handled
by intel_pin_and_fence_fb_obj(), but the intelfb_create() likes to be
different and do the pinning itself. However, it aligns the buffer
object incorrectly for pre-i965 chipsets causing a PGTBL_ERR when it is
installed onto the output.
This implements the same D-cache flushing logic for r8a66597-hcd as
Catalin's isp1760 (http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/76391/) change,
with the same note applying here as well:
When the HDC driver writes the data to the transfer buffers it
pollutes the D-cache (unlike DMA drivers where the device writes
the data). If the corresponding pages get mapped into user space,
there are no additional cache flushing operations performed and
this causes random user space faults on architectures with
separate I and D caches (Harvard) or those with aliasing D-cache.
This fixes up crashes during USB boot on SH7724 and others:
The MALATA PC-81005 laptop always reports that the LID status is closed and we
can't use it reliabily for LVDS detection. So add this box into the quirk list.
