n_requested_mmu_pages/n_free_mmu_pages are used by
kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages to calculate the number of pages to zap.
alloc_mmu_pages, called from the vcpu initialization path, modifies this
variables without proper locking, which can result in a negative value
in kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages (say, with cpu hotplug).
Commit ac89a9174 ("pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside
'pty_write()'") removed the pty_space() checking, in order to let the
regular tty buffer code limit the buffering itself.
That was all good, but as a subtle side effect it meant that we'd be
doing a tty_wakeup() even in the case where the buffers were all filled
up, and didn't actually make any progress on the write.
Which sounds innocuous, but it interacts very badly with the ppp_async
code, which has an infinite loop in ppp_async_push() that tries to push
out data to the tty. When we call tty_wakeup(), that loop ends up
thinking that progress was made (see the subtle interactions between
XMIT_WAKEUP and 'tty_stuffed' for details). End result: one unhappy ppp
user.
Fixed by noticing when tty_insert_flip_string() didn't actually do
anything, and then not doing any more processing (including, very much
not calling tty_wakeup()).
The length of the to-copy data structure is currently stored in
a signed integer. However many comparisons are done with sizeof(..)
which is unsigned. It's more suitable for this variable to be unsigned
to make these comparisons more naturally right.

Commit a5bfc4714b3f01365aef89a92673f2ceb1ccf246 dropped explicit

Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had
serious stability issues. Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to
work around much of the problem. Some failure remained -- easily visible
by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla.
The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of
memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the
flush page was mapped uncached. As a result, the writes trying to clear the
writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything! The
wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted
to get flushed, but not always. By removing the setting of the page to UC
and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the
desired behavior with no wbinvd.
This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to
basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM.

According to the specifications, an instrument should not return more data in a
DEV_DEP_MSG_IN urb than requested. However, some instruments can send more
than requested. This could cause the kernel to write the extra data past the
end of the buffer provided by read().
Fix this by checking that the value of the TranserSize field is not larger than
the urb itself and not larger than the size of the userspace buffer. Also
correctly decrement the remaining size of the buffer when userspace read()s
more than USBTMC_SIZE_IOBUFFER.

usb_stor_huawei_e220_init to be zero. Then it will not prevent usb-storage

This will fix file system corruption which infrequently happens after
mount. The problem was reported from users with the title "[NILFS
users] Fail to mount NILFS." (Message-ID:
<200908211918.34720.yuri@itinteg.net>), and so forth. I've also
experienced the corruption multiple times on kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.31.
The problem turned out to be caused due to discordance between
mapping->nrpages of a btree node cache and the actual number of pages
hung on the cache; if the mapping->nrpages becomes zero even as it has
pages, truncate_inode_pages() returns without doing anything. Usually
this is harmless except it may cause page leak, but garbage collection
fairly infrequently sees a stale page remained in the btree node cache
of DAT (i.e. disk address translation file of nilfs), and induces the
corruption.
I identified a missing initialization in btree node caches was the
root cause. This corrects the bug.

Since 2.6.29 the PCI PM core have been restoring the standard
configuration registers of PCI devices in the early phase of
resume. In particular, PCI devices without drivers have been handled
this way since commit 355a72d75b3b4f4877db4c9070c798238028ecb5
(PCI: Rework default handling of suspend and resume). Unfortunately,
this leads to post-resume problems with CardBus devices which cannot
be accessed in the early phase of resume, because the sockets they
are on have not been woken up yet at that point.
To solve this problem, move the yenta socket resume to the early
phase of resume and, analogously, move the suspend of it to the late
phase of suspend. Additionally, remove some unnecessary PCI code
from the yenta socket's resume routine.

Where possible we enable interrupts while waiting for a spinlock to
become free, in order to reduce big latency spikes in interrupt handling.
However, at present if we manage to pick up the spinlock just before
blocking, we'll end up holding the lock with interrupts enabled for a
while. This will cause a deadlock if we recieve an interrupt in that
window, and the interrupt handler tries to take the lock too.
Solve this by shrinking the interrupt-enabled region to just around the
blocking call.

-fstack-protector uses a special per-cpu "stack canary" value.
gcc generates special code in each function to test the canary to make
sure that the function's stack hasn't been overrun.
On x86-64, this is simply an offset of %gs, which is the usual per-cpu
base segment register, so setting it up simply requires loading %gs's
base as normal.
On i386, the stack protector segment is %gs (rather than the usual kernel
percpu %fs segment register). This requires setting up the full kernel
GDT and then loading %gs accordingly. We also need to make sure %gs is
initialized when bringing up secondary cpus too.
To keep things consistent, we do the full GDT/segment register setup on
both architectures.
Because we need to avoid -fstack-protected code before setting up the GDT
and because there's no way to disable it on a per-function basis, several
files need to have stack-protector inhibited.

When calling vfs_unlink() on the lower dentry, d_delete() turns the
dentry into a negative dentry when the d_count is 1. This eventually
caused a NULL pointer deref when a read() or write() was done and the
negative dentry's d_inode was dereferenced in
ecryptfs_read_update_atime() or ecryptfs_getxattr().
Placing mutt's tmpdir in an eCryptfs mount is what initially triggered
the oops and I was able to reproduce it with the following sequence:
When searching through the global authentication tokens for a given key
signature, verify that a matching key has not been revoked and has not
expired. This allows the `keyctl revoke` command to be properly used on
keys in use by eCryptfs.
Returns -ENOTSUPP when attempting to use filename encryption with
something other than a password authentication token, such as a private
token from openssl. Using filename encryption with a userspace eCryptfs
key module is a future goal. Until then, this patch handles the
situation a little better than simply using a BUG_ON().
If the lower inode is read-only, don't attempt to open the lower file
read/write and don't hand off the open request to the privileged
eCryptfs kthread for opening it read/write. Instead, only try an
unprivileged, read-only open of the file and give up if that fails.
This patch fixes an oops when eCryptfs is mounted on top of a read-only
mount.
Returns an error when an unrecognized cipher code is present in a tag 3
packet or an ecryptfs_crypt_stat cannot be initialized. Also sets an
crypt_stat->tfm error pointer to NULL to ensure that it will not be
incorrectly freed in ecryptfs_destroy_crypt_stat().
In theory it could happen that on one CPU we initialize a new inode but
clearing of I_NEW | I_LOCK gets reordered before some of the
initialization. Thus on another CPU we return not fully uptodate inode
from iget_locked().
This seems to fix a corruption issue on ext3 mounted over NFS.

Commit b478b782e110fdb4135caa3062b6d687e989d994 "kallsyms, tracing: output
more proper symbol name" introduces a "bugfix" that introduces a segfault
in kallsyms in my configurations.
The cause is the introduction of prefix_underscores_count() which attempts
to count underscores, even in symbols that do not have them. As a result,
it just uselessly runs past the end of the buffer until it crashes:
Attempting to unload a framebuffer module calls unregister_framebuffer()
which in turn gets fbcon to release it. If fbcon has no framebuffers
linked to a console, it will also unbind itself from the console driver.
However, if fbcon never registered itself as a console driver, the unbind
will fail causing the framebuffer device entry to persist. In most cases
this failure will result in an oops when attempting to access the now
non-existent device.
This patch ensures that the fbcon unbind request will succeed even if a
bind was never done. It tracks if a successful bind ever occurred & will
only attempt to unbind if needed. If there never was a bind, it simply
returns with no error.

cause that mmap_base starts in the stack reserved area because stack is

If the stack really grows down to mmap_base then we can get silent mmap

On a Compaq Presario V3000 laptop (NVIDIA MCP51 chipset), pata_amd selects
PIO0 mode for the PATA DVD-RAM drive instead of MWDMA2 which it supports:
ata4.00: ATAPI: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4084N, KQ09, max MWDMA2
ata4: nv_mode_filter: 0x39f&0x7001->0x1, BIOS=0x0 (0x0) ACPI=0x7001 (60:600:0x11)
ata4.00: configured for PIO0
For some reason, the BIOS-set UDMA configuration returns 0 and the ACPI _GTM
reports that UDMA2 and PIO0 are enabled. This causes nv_mode_filter to end up
allowing only PIO0 and UDMA0-2. Since the drive doesn't support UDMA we end up
using PIO0.
Since the controllers should always support PIO4, MWDMA2 and UDMA2 regardless
of what cable type is used, let's make sure we don't filter out these modes
regardless of what wacky settings the BIOS is using.

The SLB can change sizes across a live migration, which was not
being handled, resulting in possible machine crashes during
migration if migrating to a machine which has a smaller max SLB
size than the source machine. Fix this by first reducing the
SLB size to the minimum possible value, which is 32, prior to
migration. Then during the device tree update which occurs after
migration, we make the call to ensure the SLB gets updated. Also
add the slb_size to the lparcfg output so that the migration
tools can check to make sure the kernel has this capability
before allowing migration in scenarios where the SLB size will change.

One more form factor for Compaq Evo D510, which needs the same quirk
as the other form factors. Apparently there's no hardware monitoring
chip on that one, but SPD EEPROMs, so it's still worth unhiding the
SMBus.
ata_tf_read_block() has off-by-one error when converting CHS address
to LBA. The bug isn't very visible because ata_tf_read_block() is
used only when generating sense data for a failed RW command and CHS
addressing isn't used too often these days.
Don't call adjust_vmx_controls() two times for the same control.
It restores options that were dropped earlier. This loses us the cr8
exit control, which causes a massive performance regression Windows x64.
So far unprivileged guest callers running in ring 3 can issue, e.g., MMU
hypercalls. Normally, such callers cannot provide any hand-crafted MMU
command structure as it has to be passed by its physical address, but
they can still crash the guest kernel by passing random addresses.
To close the hole, this patch considers hypercalls valid only if issued
from guest ring 0. This may still be relaxed on a per-hypercall base in
the future once required.

The use of __pa() to calculate the address of a C-visible symbol
is wrong, and can lead to unpredictable results. See arch/x86/include/asm/page.h
for details.
It should be replaced with __pa_symbol(), that does the correct math here,
by taking relocations into account. This ensures the correct wallclock data
structure physical address is passed to the hypervisor.

Debug registers may only be accessed from cpl 0. Unfortunately, vmx will
code to emulate the instruction even though it was issued from guest
userspace, possibly leading to an unexpected trap later.
Commit b8bcfe997e4 made paravirt pte updates synchronous in interrupt
context.
Unfortunately the KVM pv mmu code caches the lazy/nonlazy mode
internally, so a pte update from interrupt context during a lazy mmu
operation can be batched while it should be performed synchronously.
Let's suppose a highmem page is kmap'd with kmap(). A pkmap entry is
used, the page mapped to it, and the virtual cache is dirtied. Then
kunmap() is used which does virtually nothing except for decrementing a
usage count.
Then, let's suppose the _same_ page gets mapped using kmap_atomic().
It is therefore mapped onto a fixmap entry instead, which has a
different virtual address unaware of the dirty cache data for that page
sitting in the pkmap mapping.
Fortunately it is easy to know if a pkmap mapping still exists for that
page and use it directly with kmap_atomic(), thanks to kmap_high_get().
And actual testing with a printk in the added code path shows that this
condition is actually met *extremely* frequently. Seems that we've been
quite lucky that things have worked so well with highmem so far.

Fix address passed to cpa_flush_range() when changing page
attributes from WB to UC. The address (*addr) is
modified by __change_page_attr_set_clr(). The result is that
the pages being flushed start at the _end_ of the changed range
instead of the beginning.
This should be considered for 2.6.30-stable and 2.6.31-stable.

ahci fails due to IRQ mis-delivery. Apply it on resume too.
In Intel Atom microarchitecture, the address generation unit
assumes that the segment base will be 0 by default. Non-zero
segment base will cause load and store operations to experience
a delay.
- If the segment base isn't aligned to a cache line
boundary, the max throughput of memory operations is
reduced to one [e]very 9 cycles.
[...]
Assembly/Compiler Coding Rule 15. (H impact, ML generality)
For Intel Atom processors, use segments with base set to 0
whenever possible; avoid non-zero segment base address that is
not aligned to cache line boundary at all cost.
We can't avoid having a non-zero base for the stack-protector
segment, but we can make it cache-aligned.
