There were two places bio_get_nr_vecs() could overflow:
First, it did a left shift to convert from sectors to bytes immediately
before dividing by PAGE_SIZE. If PAGE_SIZE ever was less than 512 a great
many things would break, so dividing by PAGE_SIZE >> 9 is safe and will
generate smaller code too.
The nastier overflow was in the DIV_ROUND_UP() (that's what the code was
effectively doing, anyways). If n + d overflowed, the whole thing would
return 0 which breaks things rather effectively.
bio_get_nr_vecs() doesn't claim to give an exact value anyways, so the
DIV_ROUND_UP() is silly; we could do a straight divide except if a
device's queue_max_sectors was less than PAGE_SIZE we'd return 0. So we
just add 1; this should always be safe - things will break badly if
bio_get_nr_vecs() returns > BIO_MAX_PAGES (bio_alloc() will suddenly start
failing) but it's queue_max_segments that must guard against this, if
queue_max_sectors is preventing this from happen things are going to
explode on architectures with different PAGE_SIZE.

As pointed out by Jason Baron, when assigning a device to a guest
we first set the iommu domain pointer, which enables mapping
and unmapping of memory slots to the iommu. This leaves a window
where this path is enabled, but we haven't synchronized the iommu
mappings to the existing memory slots. Thus a slot being removed
at that point could send us down unexpected code paths removing
non-existent pinnings and iommu mappings. Take the slots_lock
around creating the iommu domain and initial mappings as well as
around iommu teardown to avoid this race.

If some vcpus are created before KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, then
irqchip_in_kernel() and vcpu->arch.apic will be inconsistent, leading
to potential NULL pointer dereferences.
Fix by:
- ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called
- ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP
This is somewhat long winded because vcpu->arch.apic is created without
kvm->lock held.

Since recent changes on TCP splicing (starting with commits 2f533844
"tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets" and 35f9c09f "tcp:
tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once"), I started seeing
massive stalls when forwarding traffic between two sockets using
splice() when pipe buffers were larger than socket buffers.
Latest changes (net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb()) made the
problem even more apparent.
The reason seems to be that if do_tcp_sendpages() fails on out of memory
condition without being able to send at least one byte, tcp_push() is not
called and the buffers cannot be flushed.
After applying the attached patch, I cannot reproduce the stalls at all
and the data rate it perfectly stable and steady under any condition
which previously caused the problem to be permanent.
The issue seems to have been there since before the kernel migrated to
git, which makes me think that the stalls I occasionally experienced
with tux during stress-tests years ago were probably related to the
same issue.
This issue was first encountered on 3.0.31 and 3.2.17, so please backport
to -stable.

Use del_timer_sync to remove timer before mddev_suspend finishes.
We don't want a timer going off after an mddev_suspend is called. This is
especially true with device-mapper, since it can call the destructor function
immediately following a suspend. This results in the removal (kfree) of the

Therefore, we add a del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend to prevent this.

Commit 4231d47e6fe69f061f96c98c30eaf9fb4c14b96d(net/usbnet: avoid
recursive locking in usbnet_stop()) fixes the recursive locking
problem by releasing the skb queue lock before unlink, but may
cause skb traversing races:
- after URB is unlinked and the queue lock is released,
the refered skb and skb->next may be moved to done queue,
even be released
- in skb_queue_walk_safe, the next skb is still obtained
by next pointer of the last skb
- so maybe trigger oops or other problems
This patch extends the usage of entry->state to describe 'start_unlink'
state, so always holding the queue(rx/tx) lock to change the state if
the referd skb is in rx or tx queue because we need to know if the
refered urb has been started unlinking in unlink_urbs.
The other part of this patch is based on Huajun's patch:
always traverse from head of the tx/rx queue to get skb which is
to be unlinked but not been started unlinking.

BIOS on some HP laptops don't set the speaker-pins as fixed but expose
as jacks, and this confuses the driver as if these pins are
jack-detectable. As a result, the machine doesn't get sounds from
speakers because the driver prepares the power-map update via jack
unsol events which never come up in reality. The bug was introduced
in some time in 3.2 for enabling the power-mapping feature.
This patch fixes the problem by replacing the check of the persistent
power-map bits with a proper is_jack_detectable() call.

The vfp_enable function enables access to the VFP co-processor register
space (cp10 and cp11) on the current CPU and must be called with
preemption disabled. Unfortunately, the vfp_init late initcall does not
disable preemption and can lead to an oops during boot if thread
migration occurs at the wrong time and we end up attempting to access
the FPSID on a CPU with VFP access disabled.
This patch fixes the initcall to call vfp_enable from a non-preemptible
context on each CPU and adds a BUG_ON(preemptible) to ensure that any
similar problems are easily spotted in the future.

The locking policy is such that the erase_complete_block spinlock is

(&(&c->erase_completion_lock)->rlock){+.+...}, at: [<c01f7708>] jffs2_garbage_collect_pass+0x308/0x890
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
Some RNDIS devices include a bogus CDC Union descriptor pointing
to non-existing interfaces. The RNDIS code is already prepared
to handle devices without a CDC Union descriptor by hardwiring
the driver to use interfaces 0 and 1, which is correct for the
devices with the bogus descriptor as well. So we can reuse the
existing workaround.

NFSv4: Save the owner/group name string when doing open
...so that we can do the uid/gid mapping outside the asynchronous RPC
context.
This fixes a bug in the current NFSv4 atomic open code where the client
isn't able to determine what the true uid/gid fields of the file are,
(because the asynchronous nature of the OPEN call denies it the ability
to do an upcall) and so fills them with default values, marking the
inode as needing revalidation.
Unfortunately, in some cases, the VFS will do some additional sanity
checks on the file, and may override the server's decision to allow
the open because it sees the wrong owner/group fields.

Without this patch, logging into two different machines with home
directories mounted over NFS4 and then running "vim" and typing ":q"
in each reliably produces the following error on the second machine:
E137: Viminfo file is not writable: /users/system/rtheys/.viminfo
This regression was introduced by 80e52aced138 ("NFSv4: Don't do
idmapper upcalls for asynchronous RPC calls", merged during the 2.6.32
cycle) --- after the OPEN call, .viminfo has the default values for
st_uid and st_gid (0xfffffffe) cached because we do not want to let
rpciod wait for an idmapper upcall to fill them in.
The fix used in mainline is to save the owner and group as strings and
perform the upcall in _nfs4_proc_open outside the rpciod context,
which takes about 600 lines. For stable, we can do something similar
with a one-liner: make open check for the stale fields and make a
(synchronous) GETATTR call to fill them when needed.
Trond dictated the patch, I typed it in, and Rik tested it.

tcp_adv_win_scale default value is 2, meaning we expect a good citizen
skb to have skb->len / skb->truesize ratio of 75% (3/4)
In 2.6 kernels we (mis)accounted for typical MSS=1460 frame :
1536 + 64 + 256 = 1856 'estimated truesize', and 1856 * 3/4 = 1392.
So these skbs were considered as not bloated.
With recent truesize fixes, a typical MSS=1460 frame truesize is now the
more precise :
2048 + 256 = 2304. But 2304 * 3/4 = 1728.
So these skb are not good citizen anymore, because 1460 < 1728
(GRO can escape this problem because it build skbs with a too low
truesize.)
This also means tcp advertises a too optimistic window for a given
allocated rcvspace : When receiving frames, sk_rmem_alloc can hit
sk_rcvbuf limit and we call tcp_prune_queue()/tcp_collapse() too often,
especially when application is slow to drain its receive queue or in
case of losses (netperf is fast, scp is slow). This is a major latency
source.
We should adjust the len/truesize ratio to 50% instead of 75%
This patch :
1) changes tcp_adv_win_scale default to 1 instead of 2
2) increase tcp_rmem[2] limit from 4MB to 6MB to take into account
better truesize tracking and to allow autotuning tcp receive window to

When the cwnd reduction is done, ssthresh may be infinite
if TCP enters CWR via ECN or F-RTO. If cwnd is not undone, i.e.,

Bug: The VLAN bit of the MAC RX Status Word is unreliable in several older
supported chips. Sometimes the VLAN bit is not set for valid VLAN packets
and also sometimes the VLAN bit is set for non-VLAN packets that came after
a VLAN packet. This results in a receive length error when VLAN hardware
tagging is enabled.
Fix: Variation on original fix proposed by Mirko.
The VLAN information is decoded in the status loop, and can be
applied to the received SKB there. This eliminates the need for the
separate tag field in the interface data structure. The tag has to
be copied and cleared if packet is copied. This version checked out
with vlan and normal traffic.
Note: vlan_tx_tag_present should be renamed vlan_tag_present, but that
is outside scope of this.

pcpu_embed_first_chunk() allocates memory for each node, copies percpu
data and frees unused portions of it before proceeding to the next
group. This assumes that allocations for different nodes doesn't
overlap; however, depending on memory topology, the bootmem allocator
may end up allocating memory from a different node than the requested
one which may overlap with the portion freed from one of the previous
percpu areas. This leads to percpu groups for different nodes
overlapping which is a serious bug.
This patch separates out copy & partial free from the allocation loop
such that all allocations are complete before partial frees happen.
This also fixes overlapping frees which could happen on allocation
failure path - out_free_areas path frees whole groups but the groups
could have portions freed at that point.

When an IRQ for some reason gets lost, we wait up to a second using
udelay, which is CPU intensive. This patch improves the situation by
waiting about 30 ms in the CPU intensive mode, then stepping down to
using msleep(2) instead. In essence, we trade some granularity in
exchange for less CPU consumption when the waiting time is a bit longer.
As a result, PulseAudio should no longer be killed by the kernel
for taking up to much RT-prio CPU time. At least not for *this* reason.

This assertion seems to imply that chip->dsp_code_to_load is a pointer.
It's actually an integer handle on the actual firmware, and 0 has no
special meaning.
The assertion prevents initialisation of a Darla20 card, but would also
affect other models. It seems it was introduced in commit dd7b254d.
The commit above swapped the DSI1_PPID and DSI2_PPID register fields in
CONTROL_DSIPHY to be in sync with the newer public OMAP TRMs(after version V).
With this commit, contention errors were reported on DSI lanes some OMAP4 SDPs.
After probing the DSI lanes on OMAP4 SDP, it was seen that setting bits in the
DSI2_PPID field was pulling up voltage on DSI1 lanes, and DSI1_PPID field was
pulling up voltage on DSI2 lanes.
This proves that the current version of OMAP4 TRM is incorrect, swap the
position of register fields according to the older TRM versions as they were
correct.

exit_notify() changes ->exit_signal if the parent already did exec.
This doesn't really work, we are not going to send the signal now
if there is another live thread or the exiting task is traced. The
parent can exec before the last dies or the tracer detaches.
Move this check into do_notify_parent() which actually sends the
signal.
The user-visible change is that we do not change ->exit_signal,
and thus the exiting task is still "clone children" for
do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE). Hopefully this is fine, the
current logic is racy anyway.
exit_notify() checks "tsk->self_exec_id != tsk->parent_exec_id"
to handle the "we have changed execution domain" case.
We can change do_thread() to always set ->exit_signal = SIGCHLD
and remove this check to simplify the code.
We could change setup_new_exec() instead, this looks more logical
because it increments ->self_exec_id. But note that de_thread()
already resets ->exit_signal if it changes the leader, let's keep
both changes close to each other.
Note that we change ->exit_signal lockless, this changes the rules.
Thereafter ->exit_signal is not stable under tasklist but this is
fine, the only possible change is OLDSIG -> SIGCHLD. This can race
with eligible_child() but the race is harmless. We can race with
reparent_leader() which changes our ->exit_signal in parallel, but
it does the same change to SIGCHLD.
The noticeable user-visible change is that the execing task is not
"visible" to do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE) right after exec.
To me this looks more logical, and this is consistent with mt case.

With the embed percpu first chunk allocator, x86 uses either PAGE_SIZE
or PMD_SIZE for atom_size. PMD_SIZE is used when CPU supports PSE so
that percpu areas are aligned to PMD mappings and possibly allow using
PMD mappings in vmalloc areas in the future. Using larger atom_size
doesn't waste actual memory; however, it does require larger vmalloc
space allocation later on for !first chunks.
With reasonably sized vmalloc area, PMD_SIZE shouldn't be a problem
but x86_32 at this point is anything but reasonable in terms of
address space and using larger atom_size reportedly leads to frequent
percpu allocation failures on certain setups.
As there is no reason to not use PMD_SIZE on x86_64 as vmalloc space
is aplenty and most x86_64 configurations support PSE, fix the issue
by always using PMD_SIZE on x86_64 and PAGE_SIZE on x86_32.
v2: drop cpu_has_pse test and make x86_64 always use PMD_SIZE and
x86_32 PAGE_SIZE as suggested by hpa.

which is due to the fact we are trying to access a PFN that is not
accessible to us. The reason (at least in this case) was that
PGD[256] is set to __HYPERVISOR_VIRT_START which was setup (by the
hypervisor) to point to a read-only linear map of the MFN->PFN array.
During our parsing we would get the MFN (a valid one), try to look
it up in the MFN->PFN tree and find it invalid and return ~0 as PFN.
Then pte_mfn_to_pfn would happilly feed that in, attach the flags
and return it back to the caller. 'ptdump_show' bitshifts it and
gets and invalid value that it tries to dereference.
Instead of doing all of that, we detect the ~0 case and just

Commit 4e8ee7de227e3ab9a72040b448ad728c5428a042 (ARM: SMP: use
idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting)
switched secondary boot to use idmap_pgd, which is initialized
during early_initcall, instead of a page table initialized during
__cpu_up. This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings
but be missing all dynamic mappings.
If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the
printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on
the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been
initialized, leading to a hang. Initial boot is not affected
because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually
not affected because the offending console is suspended.
Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem.
A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until
after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

The inline assembly in kernel_execve() uses r8 and r9. Since this
code sequence does not return, it usually doesn't matter if the
register clobber list is accurate. However, I saw a case where a
particular version of gcc used r8 as an intermediate for the value
eventually passed to r9. Because r8 is used in the inline
assembly, and not mentioned in the clobber list, r9 was set
to an incorrect value.
This resulted in a kernel panic on execution of the first user-space

Newer devices have 20 (5000 series) or 30 (6000 series)
hardware queues, rather than the 16 that 4965 had. This
was added to the driver a long time ago, but improperly:
the queue registers for the higher queues aren't just
continuations of the registers for the first 16 queues,
they are in other places. Therefore, the hardware would
lock up when trying to activate queue 16 or above and
the device would have to be restarted.
Thanks goes to Emmanuel who identified this and told me
how the queue programming should be done.
Note that we don't use queues 20 and higher today and
doing so needs more work than this.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738508
and machine booting (reported by Tom Gundersen and Mads Kiilerich)

This patch doesn't fix the delay issue during firmware load.
But at least device now works as usual after boot.

Commit 2a19032 (b43: reload phy and bss settings after core restarts)
introduced an unconditional call to b43_op_config() at the end of
b43_op_start(). When firmware fails to load this can wedge the system.
There's no need to reload the configuration after a failed
initialization anyway, so only make the call if initialization was
successful.

Commit d902747("[libata] Add ATA transport class") introduced
ATA_EFLAG_OLD_ER to mark entries in the error ring as cleared.
But ata_count_probe_trials_cb() didn't check this flag and it still
counts the old error history. So wrong probe trials count is returned
and it causes problem, for example, SATA link speed is slowed down from
3.0Gbps to 1.5Gbps.
Fix it by checking ATA_EFLAG_OLD_ER in ata_count_probe_trials_cb().

CPU core ID is used to index the core_data[] array. The core ID is, however, not
sequential; 10-core CPUS can have a core ID as high as 25. Increase the limit to
32 to be able to deal with current CPUs.

We really need to use a ACCESS_ONCE() on the sequence value read in
__read_seqcount_begin(), because otherwise the compiler might end up
reloading the value in between the test and the return of it. As a
result, it might end up returning an odd value (which means that a write
is in progress).
If the reader is then fast enough that that odd value is still the
current one when the read_seqcount_retry() is done, we might end up with
a "successful" read sequence, even despite the concurrent write being
active.
In practice this probably never really happens - there just isn't
anything else going on around the read of the sequence count, and the
common case is that we end up having a read barrier immediately
afterwards.
So the code sequence in which gcc might decide to reaload from memory is
small, and there's no reason to believe it would ever actually do the
reload. But if the compiler ever were to decide to do so, it would be
incredibly annoying to debug. Let's just make sure.

The problem was that the first referral was parsed more than once
and so the caller tried the same referrals multiple times.
The problem was introduced partly by commit 066ce6899484d9026acd6ba3a8dbbedb33d7ae1b,
where 'ref += le16_to_cpu(ref->Size);' got lost,
but that was also wrong...

Ben Hutchings pointed out that the validation in efivars was inadequate -
most obviously, an entry with size 0 would server as a DoS against the
kernel. Improve this based on his suggestions.

Various people reported nohz load tracking still being wrecked, but Doug
spotted the actual problem. We fold the nohz remainder in too soon,
causing us to loose samples and under-account.
So instead of playing catch-up up-front, always do a single load-fold
with whatever state we encounter and only then fold the nohz remainder
and play catch-up.
