Agere FW643 rev 06, listed as "11c1:5901 (rev 06) (prog-if 10 [OHCI])",
produced SBP-2 I/O errors since kernel 2.6.36. Disabling MSI fixes it.
Since MSI work on Agere FW643-E (same vendor and device ID, but rev 07),
introduce a device revision field into firewire-ohci's quirks list so
that different quirks can be defined for older and newer revisions.

This fixes a bug as seen on 2.6.32 based kernels where timers got
enqueued on offline cpus.
If a cpu goes offline it might still have pending timers. These will
be migrated during CPU_DEAD handling after the cpu is offline.
However while the cpu is going offline it will schedule the idle task
which will then call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick().
That function in turn will call get_next_timer_intterupt() to figure
out if the tick of the cpu can be stopped or not. If it turns out that
the next tick is just one jiffy off (delta_jiffies == 1)
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() incorrectly assumes that the tick should
not stop and takes an early exit and thus it won't update the load
balancer cpu.
Just afterwards the cpu will be killed and the load balancer cpu could
be the offline cpu.
On 2.6.32 based kernel get_nohz_load_balancer() gets called to decide
on which cpu a timer should be enqueued (see __mod_timer()). Which
leads to the possibility that timers get enqueued on an offline cpu.
These will never expire and can cause a system hang.
This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels
__mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that
problem. However there might be other problems because of the too
early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline.
The easiest and probably safest fix seems to be to let
get_next_timer_interrupt() just lie and let it say there isn't any
pending timer if the current cpu is offline.
I also thought of moving migrate_[hr]timers() from CPU_DEAD to
CPU_DYING, but seeing that there already have been fixes at least in
the hrtimer code in this area I'm afraid that this could add new
subtle bugs.
This patch fixes a hang observed with 2.6.32 kernels where timers got enqueued
on offline cpus.
printk_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets
offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will
call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call
printk_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On
offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the
tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the
fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on
the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway.
In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call
select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what
made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is
used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If
printk_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get
updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline
cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly
they never expire and cause system hangs.
This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses
get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be
other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in
case a cpu goes offline.
Easiest way to fix this is just to test if the current cpu is offline and call
printk_tick() directly which clears the condition.
Alternatively I tried a cpu hotplug notifier which would clear the condition,
however between calling the notifier function and printk_needs_cpu() something
could have called printk() again and the problem is back again. This seems to
be the safest fix.

Commit bbbe33900d1f3c added functionality to restrict PCM parameters
based on ELD info (derived from EDID data) of the audio sink.
However, according to CEA-861-D no SAD is needed for basic audio
(32/44.1/48kHz stereo 16-bit audio), which is instead indicated with a
basic audio flag in the CEA EDID Extension.
The flag is not present in ELD. However, as all audio capable sinks are
required to support basic audio, we can assume it to be always
available.
Fix allowed audio formats with sinks that have SADs (Short Audio
Descriptors) which do not completely overlap with the basic audio
formats (there are no reports of affected devices so far) by always
assuming that basic audio is supported.
Commit bbbe33900d1f3c added functionality to restrict PCM parameters
based on ELD info (derived from EDID data) of the audio sink.
However, it wrongly assumes that the bits 0-2 of the first byte of
CEA Short Audio Descriptors mean a supported number of channels. In
reality, they mean the maximum number of channels (as per CEA-861-D
7.5.2). This means that the channel count can only be used to restrict
max_channels, not min_channels.
Restricting min_channels causes us to deny opening the device in stereo
mode if the sink only has SADs that declare larger numbers of channels
(like Primare SP32 AV Processor does).
Fix that by not restricting min_channels based on ELD information.
The other pipe functions do not need to use the 'careful' version, since
they are only ever called for things that are already known to be pipes.
The normal read/write/ioctl functions are called through the file
operations structures, so if a file isn't a pipe, they'd never get
called. But pipe_fcntl() is special, and called directly from the
generic fcntl code, and needs to use the same careful function that the
splice code is using.

On each machine check all registers are revalidated. The save area for
the clock comparator however only contains the upper most seven bytes
of the former contents, if valid.
Therefore the machine check handler uses a store clock instruction to
get the current time and writes that to the clock comparator register
which in turn will generate an immediate timer interrupt.
However within the lowcore the expected time of the next timer
interrupt is stored. If the interrupt happens before that time the
handler won't be called. In turn the clock comparator won't be
reprogrammed and therefore the interrupt condition stays pending which
causes an interrupt loop until the expected time is reached.
On NOHZ machines this can result in unresponsive machines since the
time of the next expected interrupted can be a couple of days in the
future.
To fix this just revalidate the clock comparator register with the
expected value.
In addition the special handling for udelay must be changed as well.
If r8196 received packets with invalid sctp/igmp(not tcp, udp) checksum, r8196 set skb->ip_summed

I am not family with r8196 driver. I try to guess the meaning of RxProtoIP and IPFail.
RxProtoIP stands for received IPv4 packet that upper protocol is not tcp and udp.
!(opts1 & IPFail) is true means that driver correctly to check checksum in IPv4 header.
If it's right, I think we should not set ip_summed wit CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for my sctp packets

While porting GRO to r8169, I found this driver has a bug in its rx
path.
All skbs given to network stack had their ip_summed set to
CHECKSUM_NONE, while hardware said they had correct TCP/UDP checksums.
The reason is driver sets skb->ip_summed on the original skb before the
copy eventually done by copybreak. The fresh skb gets the ip_summed =
CHECKSUM_NONE value, forcing network stack to recompute checksum, and
preventing my GRO patch to work.
Fix is to make the ip_summed setting after skb copy.

The switch to the new control framework caused a regression where the audio was
no longer unmuted after the carrier scan finished.
The original code attempted to set the volume control to its current value in
order to have the set-volume control code to be called that handles the volume
and muting. However, the framework will not call that code unless the new volume
value is different from the old.
Instead we now call msp_s_ctrl directly.
It is a bit of a hack: we really need a v4l2_ctrl_refresh_ctrl function for this
(or something along those lines).

Do not allow for initiating communication if our secondary HT40

Its hard to make the filter validation in sk_chk_filter(), because of

vlan: Avoid hwaccel vlan packets when vid not used.
[This patch applies only to 2.6.36 stable. The problem was introduced
in that release and is already fixed by larger changes to the vlan
code in 2.6.37.]
Normally hardware accelerated vlan packets are quickly dropped if
there is no corresponding vlan device configured. The one exception
is promiscuous mode, where we allow all of these packets through so
they can be picked up by tcpdump. However, this behavior causes a
crash if we actually try to receive these packets. This fixes that
crash by ignoring packets with vids not corresponding to a configured
device in the vlan hwaccel routines and then dropping them before they
get to consumers in the network stack.

Implement the suggested workaround for OMAP3 regarding to sDMA draining
issue, when the channel is disabled on the fly.
This errata affects the following configuration:
sDMA transfer is source synchronized
Buffering is enabled
SmartStandby is selected.
The issue can be easily reproduced by creating overrun situation while
recording audio.
Either introduce load to the CPU:
nice -19 arecord -D hw:0 -M -B 10000 -F 5000 -f dat > /dev/null & \
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null
or suspending the arecord, and resuming it:
arecord -D hw:0 -M -B 10000 -F 5000 -f dat > /dev/null
CTRL+Z; fg; CTRL+Z; fg; ...
In case of overrun audio stops DMA, and restarts it (without reseting
the sDMA channel). When we hit this errata in stop case (sDMA drain did
not complete), at the coming start the sDMA will not going to be
operational (it is still draining).
This leads to DMA stall condition.
On OMAP3 we can recover with sDMA channel reset, it has been observed
that by introducing unrelated sDMA activity might also help (reading
from MMC for example).
The same errata exists for OMAP2, where the suggestion is to disable the
buffering to avoid this type of error.
On OMAP3 the suggestion is to set sDMA to NoStandby before disabling
the channel, and wait for the drain to finish, than configure sDMA to
SmartStandby again.

An errata workaround for omap24xx is not setting the buffering disable bit
25 what is the purpose but channel enable bit 7 instead.
Background for this fix is the DMA stalling issue with ASoC omap-mcbsp
driver. Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@nokia.com> has found an issue in
recording that the DMA stall could happen if there were a buffer overrun
detected by ALSA and the DMA was stopped and restarted due that. This
problem is known to occur on both OMAP2420 and OMAP3. It can recover on
OMAP3 after dma free, dma request and reconfiguration cycle. However, on
OMAP2420 it seems that only way to recover is a reset.
Problem was not visible before the commit c12abc0. That commit changed that
the McBSP transmitter/receiver is released from reset only when needed. That
is, only enabled McBSP transmitter without transmission was able to prevent
this DMA stall problem in receiving side and underlying problem did not show
up until now. McBSP transmitter itself seems to no be reason since DMA
stall does not recover by enabling the transmission after stall.
Debugging showed that there were a DMA write active during DMA stop time and
it never completed even when restarting the DMA. Experimenting showed that
the DMA buffering disable bit could be used to avoid stalling when using
source synchronized transfers. However that could have performance hit and
OMAP3 TRM states that buffering disable is not allowed for destination
synchronized transfers so subsequent patch will implement a method to
complete DMA writes when stopping.
This patch is based on assumtion that complete lock-up on OMAP2420 is
different but related problem. I don't have access to OMAP2420 errata but
I believe this old workaround here is put for a reason but unfortunately
a wrong bit was typed and problem showed up only now.

Trying to query/activate active multiplexing mode on this VAIO makes

This helps protect us from overflow issues down in the
individual protocol sendmsg/recvmsg handlers. Once
we hit INT_MAX we truncate out the rest of the iovec
by setting the iov_len members to zero.
This works because:
1) For SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET sockets, partial
writes are allowed and the application will just continue
with another write to send the rest of the data.
2) For datagram oriented sockets, where there must be a
one-to-one correspondance between write() calls and
packets on the wire, INT_MAX is going to be far larger
than the packet size limit the protocol is going to
check for and signal with -EMSGSIZE.

Since commit a1afb637(switch /proc/irq/*/spurious to seq_file) all
/proc/irq/XX/spurious files show the information of irq 0.
Current irq_spurious_proc_open() passes on NULL as the 3rd argument,
which is used as an IRQ number in irq_spurious_proc_show(), to the
single_open(). Because of this, all the /proc/irq/XX/spurious file
shows IRQ 0 information regardless of the IRQ number.
To fix the problem, irq_spurious_proc_open() must pass on the
appropreate data (IRQ number) to single_open().
This fixes the same problem as described in the patch "nohz: fix
printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus" for the arch_needs_cpu()
primitive:
arch_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets
offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu,
will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick().
That function in turn will call arch_needs_cpu() in order to check if the
local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally
return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be
dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already
have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway.
In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call
select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what
made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is
used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued.
If arch_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get
updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline
cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly
they never expire and cause system hangs.
This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses
get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might
be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
in case a cpu goes offline.
This specific bug was indrocuded with 3c5d92a0 "nohz: Introduce
arch_needs_cpu".
In this case a cpu hotplug notifier is used to fix the issue in order to keep
the normal/fast path small. All we need to do is to clear the condition that
makes arch_needs_cpu() return 1 since it is just a performance improvement
which is supposed to keep the local tick running for a short period if a cpu
goes idle. Nothing special needs to be done except for clearing the condition.

There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of
a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents
of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the
kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory
corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on
systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often.
This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear
in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the
saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or
the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose
it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and

eth_type_trans tries to pull data with the length of the ethernet header
from the skb. We only ensured that enough data for the first ethernet
header and the batman header is available in non-paged memory of the skb
and not for the ethernet after the batman header.
eth_type_trans would fail sometimes with drivers which don't ensure that
all there data is perfectly linearised.
The failure was noticed through a kernel bug Oops generated by the
skb_pull inside eth_type_trans.

Because it caused a chroot ttyname regression in 2.6.36.
As of 2.6.36 ttyname does not work in a chroot. It has already been
reported that screen breaks, and for me this breaks an automated
distribution testsuite, that I need to preserve the ability to run the
existing binaries on for several more years. glibc 2.11.3 which has a
fix for this is not an option.
Prepend "(unreachable)" to path strings if the path is not reachable
from the current root.
Two places updated are
- the return string from getcwd()
- and symlinks under /proc/$PID.
Other uses of d_path() are left unchanged (we know that some old
software crashes if /proc/mounts is changed).

So remove the nice sounding, but ultimately ill advised change to how
/proc/fd symlinks work.
__mem_cgroup_try_charge() can be called under down_write(&mmap_sem)(e.g.
mlock does it). This means it can cause deadlock if it races with move charge:
To avoid this deadlock, we do all the move charge works (both can_attach() and
attach()) under one mmap_sem section.
And after this patch, we set/clear mc.moving_task outside mc.lock, because we
use the lock only to check mc.from/to.
Previous baud rate setting code only has been tested with 3.5M/9600/
115200/230400/460800 bps, and recently we got a 3M bps device to test,
which needs to modify current MUL register setting, and with this
patch 2.5M/2M/1.5M/1M/0.5M should also work as they just use a MUL
value scale down from 3M's.
Also got some reference register setting from silicon guys for
different baud rates, which tries to keep the pre-scalar register value

The find_next_bit, find_first_bit, find_next_zero_bit
and find_first_zero_bit functions were not properly
clamping to the maxbit argument at the bit level. They
were instead only checking maxbit at the byte level.
To fix this, add a compare and a conditional move
instruction to the end of the common bit-within-the-
byte code used by all the functions and be sure not to
clobber the maxbit argument before it is used.

Commit 8b592783 added a Thumb-2 variant of usracc which, when it is
called with \rept=2, calls usraccoff once with an offset of 0 and
secondly with a hard-coded offset of 4 in order to avoid incrementing
the pointer again. If \inc != 4 then we will store the data to the wrong
offset from \ptr. Luckily, the only caller that passes \rept=2 to this
function is __clear_user so we haven't been actively corrupting user data.
This patch fixes usracc to pass \inc instead of #4 to usraccoff
when it is called a second time.

As pointed out by Linus, commit dab5855 ("perf_counter: Add mmap event hooks to
mprotect()") is fundamentally wrong as mprotect_fixup() can free 'vma' due to
merging. Fix the problem by moving perf_event_mmap() hook to
mprotect_fixup().
Note: there's another successful return path from mprotect_fixup() if old
flags equal to new flags. We don't, however, need to call
perf_event_mmap() there because 'perf' already knows the VMA is
executable.

MMC hosts that poll for card detection by defining the MMC_CAP_NEEDS_POLL
flag have a race on rmmod, where the delayed work is cancelled without
waiting for completed polling. To prevent this a _sync version of the work
cancellation has to be used.
When a single step exception fires, the trap bits, used to
signal hardware breakpoints, are in a random state.
These trap bits might be set if another exception will follow,
like a breakpoint in the next instruction, or a watchpoint in the
previous one. Or there can be any junk there.
So if we handle these trap bits during the single step exception,
we are going to handle an exception twice, or we are going to
handle junk.
Just ignore them in this case.

The DFS referral parsing code does a memchr() call to find the '\\'
delimiter that separates the hostname in the referral UNC from the
sharename. It then uses that value to set the length of the hostname via
pointer subtraction. Instead of subtracting the start of the hostname
however, it subtracts the start of the UNC, which causes the code to
pass in a hostname length that is 2 bytes too long.

If a user manages to trigger an oops with fs set to KERNEL_DS, fs is not
otherwise reset before do_exit(). do_exit may later (via mm_release in
fork.c) do a put_user to a user-controlled address, potentially allowing
a user to leverage an oops into a controlled write into kernel memory.
This is only triggerable in the presence of another bug, but this
potentially turns a lot of DoS bugs into privilege escalations, so it's
worth fixing. I have proof-of-concept code which uses this bug along
with CVE-2010-3849 to write a zero to an arbitrary kernel address, so
I've tested that this is not theoretical.
A more logical place to put this fix might be when we know an oops has
occurred, before we call do_exit(), but that would involve changing
every architecture, in multiple places.
The attribute cache for a file was not being cleared when a file is opened
with O_TRUNC.
If the filesystem's open operation truncates the file ("atomic_o_trunc"
feature flag is set) then the kernel should invalidate the cached st_mtime
and st_ctime attributes.
Also i_size should be explicitly be set to zero as it is used sometimes
without refreshing the cache.

report percentage battery remaining capacity directly to OS.
In this case, it reports the LastFullChargedCapacity == 100,
BatteryPresentRate = 0xFFFFFFFF, and BatteryRemaingCapacity a

Now we found some battery follows this rule even if it's a rechargeable.

driver stops reporting that it consumed the interrupt.
The fix is to set the driver's "down" flag later in the routine,
after all the timers and such have exited, preventing the interrupt
handler from being called and exiting early without handling the
interrupt.

This patch (as1435) fixes an obscure and unlikely race in ehci-hcd.
When an async URB is unlinked, the corresponding QH is removed from
the async list. If the QH's endpoint is then disabled while the URB
is being given back, ehci_endpoint_disable() won't find the QH on the
async list, causing it to believe that the QH has been lost. This
will lead to a memory leak at best and quite possibly to an oops.
The solution is to trust usbcore not to lose track of endpoints. If
the QH isn't on the async list then it doesn't need to be taken off
the list, but the driver should still wait for the QH to become IDLE
before disabling it.
In theory this fixes Bugzilla #20182. In fact the race is so rare
that it's not possible to tell whether the bug is still present.
However, adding delays and making other changes to force the race
seems to show that the patch works.
