Pages isolated for migration are accounted with the vmstat counters
NR_ISOLATE_[ANON|FILE]. Callers of migrate_pages() are expected to
increment these counters when pages are isolated from the LRU. Once the
pages have been migrated, they are put back on the LRU or freed and the
isolated count is decremented.
Memory failure is not properly accounting for pages it isolates causing
the NR_ISOLATED counters to be negative. On SMP builds, this goes
unnoticed as negative counters are treated as 0 due to expected per-cpu
drift. On UP builds, the counter is treated by too_many_isolated() as a
large value causing processes to enter D state during page reclaim or
compaction. This patch accounts for pages isolated by memory failure
correctly.
appended patch adds support for the new FTDI FT232H chip. This chip is a
single channel version of the dual FT2232H/quad FT4232H, coming with it's
own default PID 0x6014 (FT2232H uses the same PID 0x6010 like FT2232C,
FT4232H has also it's own PID).
The patch was checked on an UM232H module and a terminal program with TX/RX
shorted to that typing in the terminal reproduced the characters.
Tanya ran into an issue when trying to switch a UAS device from the BOT
configuration to the UAS configuration via the bConfigurationValue sysfs
file. Before installing the UAS configuration, set_bConfigurationValue()
calls usb_disable_device(). That function is supposed to remove all host
controller resources associated with that device, but it leaves some state
in the xHCI host controller.
Commit 0791971ba8fbc44e4f476079f856335ed45e6324
usb: allow drivers to use allocated bandwidth until unbound
added a call to usb_disable_device() in usb_set_configuration(), before
the xHCI bandwidth functions were invoked. That commit fixed a bug, but
also introduced a bug that is triggered when a configured device is
switched to a new configuration.
usb_disable_device() goes through all the motions of unbinding the drivers
attached to active interfaces and removing the USB core structures
associated with those interfaces, but it doesn't actually remove the
endpoints from the internal xHCI host controller bandwidth structures.
When usb_disable_device() calls usb_disable_endpoint() with reset_hardware
set to true, the entries in udev->ep_out and udev->ep_in will be set to
NULL. Usually, when the USB core installs a new configuration,
usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth() will drop all non-NULL endpoints in udev->ep_out
and udev->ep_in before adding any new endpoints. However, when the new
UAS configuration was added, all those entries were null, so none of the
old endpoints in the BOT configuration were dropped.
The xHCI driver blindly added the UAS configuration endpoints, and some of
the endpoint addresses overlapped with the old BOT configuration
endpoints. This caused the xHCI host to reject the Configure Endpoint
command. Now that the xHCI driver code is cleaned up to reject a
double-add of active endpoints, we need to fix the USB core to properly
drop old endpoints in usb_disable_device().
If the host controller driver needs bandwidth checking support, make
usb_disable_device() call usb_disable_endpoint() with
reset_hardware set to false, drop the endpoints from the xHCI host
controller, and then call usb_disable_endpoint() again with
reset_hardware set to true.
The first call to usb_disable_endpoint() will cancel any pending URBs and
wait on them to be freed in usb_hcd_disable_endpoint(), but will keep the
pointers in udev->ep_out and udev->ep in intact. Then
usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth() will use those pointers to know which endpoints
to drop.
The final call to usb_disable_endpoint() will do two things:
1. It will call usb_hcd_disable_endpoint() again, which should be harmless
since the ep->urb_list should be empty after the first call to
usb_disable_endpoint() returns.
2. It will set the entries in udev->ep_out and udev->ep in to NULL, and call
usb_hcd_disable_endpoint(). That call will have no effect, since the xHCI
driver doesn't set the endpoint_disable function pointer.
Note that usb_disable_device() will now need to be called with
hcd->bandwidth_mutex held.
This should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.32.

When the xHCI driver encounters a Missed Service Interval event for an
isochronous endpoint ring, it means the host controller skipped over
one or more isochronous TDs. For TD that is skipped, skip_isoc_td() is
called. This sets the frame descriptor status to -EXDEV, and also sets
the value stored in the int pointed to by status to -EXDEV.
If the isochronous TD happens to be the last TD in an URB,
handle_tx_event() will use the status variable to give back the URB to
the USB core. That means drivers will see urb->status as -EXDEV.
It turns out that EHCI, UHCI, and OHCI always set urb->status to zero for
an isochronous urb, regardless of what the frame status is. See
itd_complete() in ehci-sched.c:
} else {
/* URB was too late */
desc->status = -EXDEV;
}
}
/* ASSERT: it's really the last itd for this urb
list_for_each_entry (itd, &stream->td_list, itd_list)
BUG_ON (itd->urb == urb);
*/
/* give urb back to the driver; completion often (re)submits */
dev = urb->dev;
ehci_urb_done(ehci, urb, 0);
ehci_urb_done() completes the URB with the status of the third argument, which
is always zero in this case.
It turns out that many USB webcam drivers, such as uvcvideo, cannot
handle urb->status set to a non-zero value. They will not resubmit
their isochronous URBs in that case, and userspace will see a frozen
video.
Change the xHCI driver to be consistent with the EHCI and UHCI driver,
and always set urb->status to 0 for isochronous URBs.
This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.36
While trying to switch a UAS device from the BOT configuration to the UAS
configuration via the bConfigurationValue file, Tanya ran into an issue in
the USB core. usb_disable_device() sets entries in udev->ep_out and
udev->ep_out to NULL, but doesn't call into the xHCI bandwidth management
functions to remove the BOT configuration endpoints from the xHCI host's
internal structures.
The USB core would then attempt to add endpoints for the UAS
configuration, and some of the endpoints had the same address as endpoints
in the BOT configuration. The xHCI driver blindly added the endpoints
again, but the xHCI host controller rejected the Configure Endpoint
command because active endpoints were added without being dropped.
Make the xHCI driver reject calls to xhci_add_endpoint() that attempt to
add active endpoints without first calling xhci_drop_endpoint().
This should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.31.

We restored tty_ldisc_wait_idle in 100eeae2c5c (TTY: restore
tty_ldisc_wait_idle). We used it in the ldisc changing path to fix the
case where there are tasks in n_tty_read waiting for data and somebody
tries to change ldisc.
Similar to the case above, there may be also tasks waiting in
n_tty_read while hangup is performed. As 65b770468e98 (tty-ldisc: turn
ldisc user count into a proper refcount) removed the wait-until-idle
from all paths, hangup path won't wait for them to disappear either
now. So add it back even to the hangup path.
There is a difference, we need uninterruptible sleep as there is
obviously HUP signal pending. So tty_ldisc_wait_idle now sleeps
without possibility to be interrupted. This is what original
tty_ldisc_wait_idle did. After the wait idle reintroduction
(100eeae2c5c), we have had interruptible sleeps for the ldisc changing
path. But as there is a 5s timeout anyway, we don't allow it to be
interrupted from now on. It's not worth the added complexity of
deciding what kind of sleep we want.
Before 65b770468e98 tty_ldisc_release was called also from
tty_ldisc_release. It is called from tty_release, so I don't think we
need to restore that one.

This patch fixes the way of comparison for handling of two or more
clock sources for UART.
For example, if just only one clock source is defined even though
there are two clock sources for UART, the serial driver does not
set proper clock up. Of course, it is problem.
So this patch changes the condition of comparison to avoid useless
setup clock and adds a flag 'NO_NEED_CHECK_CLKSRC' which means
selection of source clock is not required.
In addition, since the Exynos4210 has only one clock source for UART
this patch adds the flag into its common_init_uarts().

The clocksource watchdog code is interruptible and it has been
observed that this can trigger false positives which disable the TSC.
The reason is that an interrupt storm or a long running interrupt
handler between the read of the watchdog source and the read of the
TSC brings the two far enough apart that the delta is larger than the
unstable treshold. Move both reads into a short interrupt disabled
region to avoid that.

Previously we would check for acpi_sci_override_gsi == gsi every time

on it could lead to triggering unnecessarily the acpi_gsi_to_irq(..) lookup.
The reason is that acpi_sci_override_gsi was declared in __initdata and
after early bootup could contain bogus values.
This patch moves the check for acpi_sci_override_gsi to the

which means that GSI 20 (or pin 20) is to be overriden for IRQ 9.
Our code that presets the interrupt for ACPI SCI however would
use the GSI 20 instead of IRQ 9 ending up with:
as the ACPI interpreter made a call to 'acpi_gsi_to_irq' which got nine.
It used that value to request an IRQ (request_irq) and since that was not
present it failed.
The fix is to recognize that for interrupts that are overriden (in our
case we only care about the ACPI SCI) we should use the IRQ number
to present the IRQ instead of the using GSI. End result is that we get:
We only need to set max_pfn_mapped to the last pfn mapped on x86_64 to
make sure that cleanup_highmap doesn't remove important mappings at
_end.
We don't need to do this on x86_32 because cleanup_highmap is not called
on x86_32. Besides lowering max_pfn_mapped on x86_32 has the unwanted
side effect of limiting the amount of memory available for the 1:1
kernel pagetable allocation.
This patch reverts the x86_32 part of the original patch.
The MAXSMP config option requires CPUMASK_OFFSTACK, which in turn
requires we init the memory for the maps while we bring up the cpus.
MAXSMP also increases NR_CPUS to 4096. This increase in size exposed an
issue in the argument construction for multicalls from
xen_flush_tlb_others. The args should only need space for the actual

Consider this scenario: When the size of the first received udp packet
is bigger than the receive buffer, MSG_TRUNC bit is set in msg->msg_flags.
However, if checksum error happens and this is a blocking socket, it will
goto try_again loop to receive the next packet. But if the size of the
next udp packet is smaller than receive buffer, MSG_TRUNC flag should not
be set, but because MSG_TRUNC bit is not cleared in msg->msg_flags before
receive the next packet, MSG_TRUNC is still set, which is wrong.
Fix this problem by clearing MSG_TRUNC flag when starting over for a
new packet.

udpv6_recvmsg() function is not using the correct variable to determine

Consider a non-blocking udp receive scenario: when udpv6_recvmsg() is
called by sock_common_recvmsg(), MSG_DONTWAIT bit of flags variable in
udpv6_recvmsg() is cleared by "flags & ~MSG_DONTWAIT" in this call:
But it will always go to try_again as MSG_DONTWAIT has been cleared
from flags at call time -- only noblock contains the original value
of MSG_DONTWAIT, so the test should be:

After a newly plugged CPU sets the cpu_online bit it enables
interrupts and goes idle. The cpu which brought up the new cpu waits
for the cpu_online bit and when it observes it, it sets the cpu_active
bit for this cpu. The cpu_active bit is the relevant one for the
scheduler to consider the cpu as a viable target.
With forced threaded interrupt handlers which imply forced threaded
softirqs we observed the following race:
When an interrupt happens before the cpu_active bit is set by the cpu
which brought up the newly onlined cpu, then the scheduler refuses to
enqueue the woken thread which is bound to that newly onlined cpu on
that newly onlined cpu due to the not yet set cpu_active bit and
selects a fallback runqueue. Not really an expected and desirable
behaviour.
So far this has only been observed with forced hard/softirq threading,
but in theory this could happen without forced threaded hard/softirqs
as well. It's probably unobservable as it would take a massive
interrupt storm on the newly onlined cpu which causes the softirq loop
to wake up the softirq thread and an even longer delay of the cpu
which waits for the cpu_online bit.

Ignacy reports that sometimes after leaving an IBSS
joining a new one didn't work because there still
were stations on the list. He fixed it by flushing
stations when attempting to join a new IBSS, but
this shouldn't be happening in the first case. When
I looked into it I saw a race condition in teardown
that could cause stations to be added after flush,
and thus cause this situation. Ignacy confirms that
after applying my patch he hasn't seen this happen
again.

This patch fixes 802.11n stability and performance regression we have

5MB/s to 8MB/s. Similar percentage boost can be observed on 2.4 GHz.
These are test results of 5x downloading of approximately 700MB iso

This was achieved with NetworkManager configured to do not perform
periodical scans, by configuring constant BSSID. With periodical scans,
after some time, performance downgrade to unpatched driver level, like
in example below:
However patch still make better here, since similar test on unpatched
driver make link disconnects with below messages after some time:

The lockdep warning below detects a possible A->B/B->A locking
dependency of mm->mmap_sem and dcookie_mutex. The order in
sync_buffer() is mm->mmap_sem/dcookie_mutex, while in
sys_lookup_dcookie() it is vice versa.
Fixing it in sys_lookup_dcookie() by unlocking dcookie_mutex before
copy_to_user().
oprofiled/4432 is trying to acquire lock:
(&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff810b444b>] might_fault+0x53/0xa3
but task is already holding lock:
(dcookie_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81124d28>] sys_lookup_dcookie+0x45/0x149
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
This fixes the A->B/B->A locking dependency, see the warning below.
The function task_exit_notify() is called with (task_exit_notifier)
.rwsem set and then calls sync_buffer() which locks buffer_mutex. In
sync_start() the buffer_mutex was set to prevent notifier functions to
be started before sync_start() is finished. But when registering the
notifier, (task_exit_notifier).rwsem is locked too, but now in
different order than in sync_buffer(). In theory this causes a locking
dependency, what does not occur in practice since task_exit_notify()
is always called after the notifier is registered which means the lock
is already released.
However, after checking the notifier functions it turned out the
buffer_mutex in sync_start() is unnecessary. This is because
sync_buffer() may be called from the notifiers even if sync_start()
did not finish yet, the buffers are already allocated but empty. No
need to protect this with the mutex.
So we fix this theoretical locking dependency by removing buffer_mutex
in sync_start(). This is similar to the implementation before commit:
750d857 oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs
which introduced the locking dependency.

It's possible for the following set of events to happen:
cifsd calls cifs_reconnect which reconnects the socket. A userspace
process then calls cifs_negotiate_protocol to handle the NEGOTIATE and
gets a reply. But, while processing the reply, cifsd calls
cifs_reconnect again. Eventually the GlobalMid_Lock is dropped and the
reply from the earlier NEGOTIATE completes and the tcpStatus is set to
CifsGood. cifs_reconnect then goes through and closes the socket and sets the
pointer to zero, but because the status is now CifsGood, the new socket
is not created and cifs_reconnect exits with the socket pointer set to
NULL.
Fix this by only setting the tcpStatus to CifsGood if the tcpStatus is
CifsNeedNegotiate, and by making sure that generic_ip_connect is always
called at least once in cifs_reconnect.
Note that this is not a perfect fix for this issue. It's still possible
that the NEGOTIATE reply is handled after the socket has been closed and
reconnected. In that case, the socket state will look correct but it no
NEGOTIATE was performed on it be for the wrong socket. In that situation
though the server should just shut down the socket on the next attempted
send, rather than causing the oops that occurs today.

Full-speed isoc endpoints specify interval in exponent based form in
frames, not microframes, so we need to adjust accordingly.
NEC xHCI host controllers will return an error code of 0x11 if a full
speed isochronous endpoint is added with the Interval field set to
something less than 3 (2^3 = 8 microframes, or one frame). It is
impossible for a full speed device to have an interval smaller than one
frame.
This was always an issue in the xHCI driver, but commit dfa49c4ad120a784ef1ff0717168aa79f55a483a "USB: xhci - fix math in
xhci_get_endpoint_interval()" removed the clamping of the minimum value
in the Interval field, which revealed this bug.
This needs to be backported to stable kernels back to 2.6.31.

Some Fresco Logic hosts, including those found in the AUAU N533V laptop,
advertise MSI, but fail to actually generate MSI interrupts. Add a new
xHCI quirk to skip MSI enabling for the Fresco Logic host controllers.
Fresco Logic confirms that all chips with PCI vendor ID 0x1b73 and device
ID 0x1000, regardless of PCI revision ID, do not support MSI.
This should be backported to stable kernels as far back as 2.6.36, which
was the first kernel to support MSI on xHCI hosts.
xHCI controllers respond to a Reset Device command when the Slot is in the
Enabled/Disabled state by returning an error. This is fine on other host
controllers, but the Etron xHCI host controller returns a vendor-specific
error code that the xHCI driver doesn't understand. The xHCI driver then
gives up on device enumeration.
Instead of issuing a command that will fail, just return. This fixes the
issue with the xhci driver not working on ASRock P67 Pro/Extreme boards.
This should be backported to stable kernels as far back as 2.6.34.
It breaks some people's machines, so this will all get worked out in the
3.0 kernel release, it's not quite ready for 2.6.39 just yet.

Some USB mass-storage devices have bugs that cause them not to handle
the first READ(10) command they receive correctly. The Corsair
Padlock v2 returns completely bogus data for its first read (possibly
it returns the data in encrypted form even though the device is
supposed to be unlocked). The Feiya SD/SDHC card reader fails to
complete the first READ(10) command after it is plugged in or after a
new card is inserted, returning a status code that indicates it thinks
the command was invalid, which prevents the kernel from retrying the
read.
Since the first read of a new device or a new medium is for the
partition sector, the kernel is unable to retrieve the device's
partition table. Users have to manually issue an "hdparm -z" or
"blockdev --rereadpt" command before they can access the device.
This patch (as1470) works around the problem. It adds a new quirk
flag, US_FL_INVALID_READ10, indicating that the first READ(10) should
always be retried immediately, as should any failing READ(10) commands
(provided the preceding READ(10) command succeeded, to avoid getting
stuck in a loop). The patch also adds appropriate unusual_devs
entries containing the new flag.

Protocol stall should not be fatal while reading port or hub status as it is
transient state. Currently hub EP0 STALL during port status read results in
failed device enumeration. This has been observed with ST-Ericsson (formerly
Philips) USB 2.0 Hub (04cc:1521) after connecting keyboard.
The funtion option_send_status times out when sending USB messages
to the interfaces 0, 1, and 2 of this UMTS stick. This results in a
5s timeout in the function causing other tty operations to feel very
sluggish.
This patch adds a blacklist entry for these 3 interfaces on the ZTE
K3765-Z device.
I was also able to reproduce the problem with v2.6.38 and v2.6.39.
This modem really wants sendsetup blacklisted for interfaces 0 and 1,
otherwise the kernel hardlocks for about 10 seconds while waiting for
the modem's firmware to respond, which it of course doesn't do.
A slight complication here is that TCT (who owns the Alcatel brand) used
the same USB IDs for the X200 as the X060s despite the devices having
completely different firmware and AT command sets, so we end up adding
the X060s to the blacklist at the same time. PSA to OEMs: don't use the
same USB IDs for different devices. Really. It makes your kittens cry.

Unconditionally changing the address limit to USER_DS and not restoring
it to its old value in the error path is wrong because it prevents us
using kernel memory on repeated calls to this function. This, in fact,
breaks the fallback of hard coded paths to the init program from being
ever successful if the first candidate fails to load.
With this patch applied switching to USER_DS is delayed until the point
of no return is reached which makes it possible to have a multi-arch
rootfs with one arch specific init binary for each of the (hard coded)
probed paths.
Since the address limit is already set to USER_DS when start_thread()
will be invoked, this redundancy can be safely removed.
Many Linux distributions would enable vesafb in order to display
early stage boot splash. In this case, we will get garbled X
Window screen if running X fbdev on psbfb.
This is because fb0 is occupied by vesafb while psbfb is on fb1.
They tried to drive the same pieces of hardware at the same
time. With unmodified X start-up, it would try to use default
fb0 framebuffer device and unfortunately it is now broken
becaues fb1 supersedes it.
We should let psbfb takeover framebuffer control from vesafb
to get around this problem.
This adds the Nokia E7 and C7 to the list of devices in cdc-acm, allowing
the secondary ACM channel on the device to be exposed. Without this patch
the ACM driver won't claim this secondary channel as it's marked as
having a vendor-specific protocol.
Some PCIe cards ship with a PCI-PCIe bridge which is not
visible as a PCI device in Linux. But the device-id of the
bridge is present in the IOMMU tables which causes a boot
crash in the IOMMU driver.
This patch fixes by removing these cards from the IOMMU
handling. This is a pure -stable fix, a real fix to handle
this situation appriatly will follow for the next merge
window.
The driver contains several loops counting on an u16 value
where the exit-condition is checked against variables that
can have values up to 0xffff. In this case the loops will
never exit. This patch fixed 3 such loops.
Unfortunatly there are systems where the AMD IOMMU does not
cover all devices. This breaks with the current driver as it
initializes the global dma_ops variable. This patch limits
the AMD IOMMU to the devices listed in the IVRS table fixing
DMA for devices not covered by the IOMMU.
The find_next_zero_bit() is called with the from and to arguments in the
wrong order. This results in the function always returning 0, and all
media devices being registered with minor 0. Furthermore, mdev->minor is
then used before being assigned with the find_next_zero_bit() return
value. This really makes sure we'll always use minor 0.
Fix this and let the system support more than one media device.
When signing is enabled, the first session that's established on a
socket will cause a printk like this to pop:
CIFS VFS: Unexpected SMB signature
This is because the key exchange hasn't happened yet, so the signature
field is bogus. Don't try to check the signature on the socket until the
first session has been established. Also, eliminate the specific check
for SMB_COM_NEGOTIATE since this check covers that case too.

The genirq changes are initializing descriptors for sparse IRQs quite
differently from how non-sparse (stacked?) IRQs are initialized, with
the effect that on my platform all IRQs are default-disabled on sparse
IRQs and default-enabled if non-sparse IRQs are used, crashing some
GPIO driver.
Fix this by refactoring the non-sparse IRQs to use the same descriptor
init function as the sparse IRQs.

On my x86_64 system with >4GB of ram and swiotlb instead of
a hardware iommu (because I have a VIA chipset), the call
to pci_set_dma_mask (see below) with 40bits returns an error.
But it seems that the radeon driver is designed to have
need_dma32 = true exactly if pci_set_dma_mask is called
with 32 bits and false if it is called with 40 bits.
I have read somewhere that the default are 32 bits. So if the
