handler.] did not take in account that irq_ffs() will also return 0 if for some reason
the set of pending interrupts happens to be empty.
This is trivial to trigger with a RM5261 CPU module running a 64-bit kernel and results
in something like the following:
MIPS: Malta: Remove RTC Data Mode bootstrap breakage
YAMON requires and enforces the RTC Data Mode (Register B, DM bit) to
binary, that is the bit is set every time the board goes through the
firmware bootstrap sequence. Likewise its calendar manipulation commands
interpret or set the RTC registers unconditionally as binary, never
actually checking what the value of the DM bit is, under the (correct)
assumption that it has been previously set, to indicate the binary mode.
A change to Linux a while ago however introduced a platform-specific
tweak that clears that bit and therefore forces the data mode to BCD.
This causes clock corruption and misinterpretation that has to be fixed up
by user-mode tools in system startup scripts as the initial clock is often
incorrect according to the BCD interpretation forced.
This change removes the hack; a comment included refers to alarm code,
but even if it was broken at one point by requiring the BCD mode, it
should have been trivially corrected and even if not, given how rarely the
alarm feature is used, that was not really a reasonable justification to
break the system clock that is indeed used by virtually everything. And
either way the alarm code has been since fixed anyway.

block: replace __getblk_slow misfix by grow_dev_page fix
Commit 91f68c89d8f3 ("block: fix infinite loop in __getblk_slow")
is not good: a successful call to grow_buffers() cannot guarantee
that the page won't be reclaimed before the immediate next call to
__find_get_block(), which is why there was always a loop there.
Yesterday I got "EXT4-fs error (device loop0): __ext4_get_inode_loc:3595:
inode #19278: block 664: comm cc1: unable to read itable block" on console,
which pointed to this commit.
I've been trying to bisect for weeks, why kbuild-on-ext4-on-loop-on-tmpfs
sometimes fails from a missing header file, under memory pressure on
ppc G5. I've never seen this on x86, and I've never seen it on 3.5-rc7
itself, despite that commit being in there: bisection pointed to an
irrelevant pinctrl merge, but hard to tell when failure takes between
18 minutes and 38 hours (but so far it's happened quicker on 3.6-rc2).
(I've since found such __ext4_get_inode_loc errors in /var/log/messages
from previous weeks: why the message never appeared on console until
yesterday morning is a mystery for another day.)
Revert 91f68c89d8f3, restoring __getblk_slow() to how it was (plus
a checkpatch nitfix). Simplify the interface between grow_buffers()
and grow_dev_page(), and avoid the infinite loop beyond end of device
by instead checking init_page_buffers()'s end_block there (I presume
that's more efficient than a repeated call to blkdev_max_block()),
returning -ENXIO to __getblk_slow() in that case.
And remove akpm's ten-year-old "__getblk() cannot fail ... weird"
comment, but that is worrying: are all users of __getblk() really
now prepared for a NULL bh beyond end of device, or will some oops??
This issue was recently observed on an AMD C-50 CPU where a patch of
maximum size was applied.
Commit be62adb49294 ("x86, microcode, AMD: Simplify ucode verification")
added current_size in get_matching_microcode(). This is calculated as
size of the ucode patch + 8 (ie. size of the header). Later this is
compared against the maximum possible ucode patch size for a CPU family.
And of course this fails if the patch has already maximum size.

are marked __initconst_or_module, which causes them to be
discarded in a non-modular kernel. If something later triggers
patching, it will overwrite kernel code with garbage.

UBIFS: fix complaints about too small debug buffer size
When debugging is enabled, we use a temporary on-stack buffer for formatting
the key strings like "(11368871, direntry, 0xcd0750)". The buffer size is
32 bytes and sometimes it is not enough to fit the key string - e.g., when
inode numbers are high. This is not fatal, but the key strings are incomplete
and UBIFS complains like this:
UBIFS assert failed in dbg_snprintf_key at 137 (pid 1)
This is a regression caused by "515315a UBIFS: fix key printing".
Fix the issue by increasing the buffer to 48 bytes.

fbcon: fix race condition between console lock and cursor timer (v1.1)
So we've had a fair few reports of fbcon handover breakage between
efi/vesafb and i915 surface recently, so I dedicated a couple of
days to finding the problem.
Essentially the last thing we saw was the conflicting framebuffer
message and that was all.
So after much tracing with direct netconsole writes (printks
under console_lock not so useful), I think I found the race.
Thread A (driver load) Thread B (timer thread)
unbind_con_driver -> |
bind_con_driver -> |
vc->vc_sw->con_deinit -> |
fbcon_deinit -> |
console_lock() |
| |
| fbcon_flashcursor timer fires
| console_lock() <- blocked for A
|
|
fbcon_del_cursor_timer ->
del_timer_sync
(BOOM)
Of course because all of this is under the console lock,
we never see anything, also since we also just unbound the active
console guess what we never see anything.
Hopefully this fixes the problem for anyone seeing vesafb->kms
driver handoff.

There was other data but primarily it is all showing that compaction is
contended heavily on the zone->lock and zone->lru_lock.
commit [b2eef8c0: mm: compaction: minimise the time IRQs are disabled
while isolating pages for migration] noted that it was possible for
migration to hold the lru_lock for an excessive amount of time. Very
broadly speaking this patch expands the concept.
This patch introduces compact_checklock_irqsave() to check if a lock
is contended or the process needs to be scheduled. If either condition
is true then async compaction is aborted and the caller is informed.
The page allocator will fail a THP allocation if compaction failed due
to contention. This patch also introduces compact_trylock_irqsave()
which will acquire the lock only if it is not contended and the process
does not need to schedule.

mm: have order > 0 compaction start near a pageblock with free pages
Commit 7db8889ab05b ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off where it
left") introduced a caching mechanism to reduce the amount work the free
page scanner does in compaction. However, it has a problem. Consider
two process simultaneously scanning free pages
C
Process A M S F
|---------------------------------------|
Process B M FS
C is zone->compact_cached_free_pfn
S is cc->start_pfree_pfn
M is cc->migrate_pfn
F is cc->free_pfn
In this diagram, Process A has just reached its migrate scanner, wrapped
around and updated compact_cached_free_pfn accordingly.
Simultaneously, Process B finishes isolating in a block and updates
compact_cached_free_pfn again to the location of its free scanner.
Process A moves to "end_of_zone - one_pageblock" and runs this check
compact_cached_free_pfn is above where it started so the free scanner
skips almost the entire space it should have scanned. When there are
multiple processes compacting it can end in a situation where the entire
zone is not being scanned at all. Further, it is possible for two
processes to ping-pong update to compact_cached_free_pfn which is just
random.
Overall, the end result wrecks allocation success rates.
There is not an obvious way around this problem without introducing new
locking and state so this patch takes a different approach.
First, it gets rid of the skip logic because it's not clear that it
matters if two free scanners happen to be in the same block but with
racing updates it's too easy for it to skip over blocks it should not.
Second, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn in a more limited set of
circumstances.
If a scanner has wrapped, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn to the end
of the zone. When a wrapped scanner isolates a page, it updates
compact_cached_free_pfn to point to the highest pageblock it
can isolate pages from.
If a scanner has not wrapped when it has finished isolated pages it
checks if compact_cached_free_pfn is pointing to the end of the
zone. If so, the value is updated to point to the highest
pageblock that pages were isolated from. This value will not
be updated again until a free page scanner wraps and resets
compact_cached_free_pfn.
This is not optimal and it can still race but the compact_cached_free_pfn
will be pointing to or very near a pageblock with free pages.

Correct the offset by subtracting 20 from tm_hour before taking the

Here's the reason why: RS5C348_BIT_PM is 32, and is - stupidly -

out that bit to get "hour+12". But then because it does things modulo

This code is confused. It would be much clearer if RS5C348_HOURS_MASK

need to do the silly subtract either.

During fork(), copy_hugetlb_page_range() detects if huge_pte_alloc()
shared page tables with the check dst_pte == src_pte. The logic is if
the PMD page is the same, they must be shared. This assumes that the
sharing is between the parent and child. However, if the sharing is
with a different process entirely then this check fails as in this
diagram:
For this situation to occur, it must be possible for Parent and Other to
have faulted and failed to share page tables with each other. This is
possible due to the following style of race.
PROC A PROC B
copy_hugetlb_page_range copy_hugetlb_page_range
src_pte == huge_pte_offset src_pte == huge_pte_offset
!src_pte so no sharing !src_pte so no sharing
These two processes are not poing to the same data page but are not
sharing page tables because the opportunity was missed. When either
process later forks, the src_pte == dst pte is potentially insufficient.
As the check falls through, the wrong PTE information is copied in
(harmless but wrong) and the mapcount is bumped for a page mapped by a
shared page table leading to the BUG_ON.
This patch addresses the issue by moving pmd_alloc into huge_pmd_share
which guarantees that the shared pud is populated in the same critical
section as pmd. This also means that huge_pte_offset test in
huge_pmd_share is serialized correctly now which in turn means that the
success of the sharing will be higher as the racing tasks see the pud

Delete code which sets SCSI status incorrectly as it's already been set

commit b0e15f6db111 ("cciss: fix typo that causes scsi status to be
lost.")

mm: change nr_ptes BUG_ON to WARN_ON
Occasionally an isolated BUG_ON(mm->nr_ptes) gets reported, indicating
that not all the page tables allocated could be found and freed when
exit_mmap() tore down the user address space.
There's usually nothing we can say about it, beyond that it's probably a
sign of some bad memory or memory corruption; though it might still
indicate a bug in vma or page table management (and did recently reveal a
race in THP, fixed a few months ago).
But one overdue change we can make is from BUG_ON to WARN_ON.
It's fairly likely that the system will crash shortly afterwards in some
other way (for example, the BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)) in
__delete_from_page_cache(), once an inode mapped into the lost page tables
gets evicted); but might tell us more before that.
Change the BUG_ON(page_mapped) to WARN_ON too? Later perhaps: I'm less
eager, since that one has several times led to fixes.

drm: stop vmgfx driver explosion
If you do a page flip with no flags set then event is NULL. If event is
NULL then the vmw_gfx driver likes to go digging into NULL and extracts
NULL->base.file_priv.
On a modern kernel with NULL mapping protection it's just another oops,
without it there are some "intriguing" possibilities.
What it should do is an open question but that for the driver owners to
sort out.

ceph: avoid divide by zero in __validate_layout()
If "l->stripe_unit" is zero the the mod on the next line will cause a
divide by zero bug. This comes from the copy_from_user() in
ceph_ioctl_set_layout_policy(). Passing 0 is valid, though (it means
"do not change") so avoid the % check in that case.

libceph: avoid truncation due to racing banners
Because the Ceph client messenger uses a non-blocking connect, it is
possible for the sending of the client banner to race with the
arrival of the banner sent by the peer.
When ceph_sock_state_change() notices the connect has completed, it
schedules work to process the socket via con_work(). During this
time the peer is writing its banner, and arrival of the peer banner
races with con_work().
If con_work() calls try_read() before the peer banner arrives, there
is nothing for it to do, after which con_work() calls try_write() to
send the client's banner. In this case Ceph's protocol negotiation
can complete succesfully.
The server-side messenger immediately sends its banner and addresses
after accepting a connect request, *before* actually attempting to
read or verify the banner from the client. As a result, it is
possible for the banner from the server to arrive before con_work()
calls try_read(). If that happens, try_read() will read the banner
and prepare protocol negotiation info via prepare_write_connect().
prepare_write_connect() calls con_out_kvec_reset(), which discards
the as-yet-unsent client banner. Next, con_work() calls
try_write(), which sends the protocol negotiation info rather than
the banner that the peer is expecting.
The result is that the peer sees an invalid banner, and the client
reports "negotiation failed".
Fix this by moving con_out_kvec_reset() out of
prepare_write_connect() to its callers at all locations except the
one where the banner might still need to be sent.
