was a stop-gate to fix a GCC4.1 bug. The appropiate way
is to actually use an list instead of using an llist.
As such this patch replaces the usage of llist with an
list.
Since we always manipulate the list while holding the io_lock, there's
no need for additional locking (llist used previously is safe to use
concurrently without additional locking).

If the frontend is using a non-native protocol (e.g., a 64-bit
frontend with a 32-bit backend) and it sent an unrecognized request,
the request was not translated and the response would have the
incorrect ID. This may cause the frontend driver to behave
incorrectly or crash.
Since the ID field in the request is always in the same place,
regardless of the request type we can get the correct ID and make a
valid response (which will report BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP).
This bug affected 64-bit SLES 11 guests when using a 32-bit backend.
This guest does a BLKIF_OP_RESERVED_1 (BLKIF_OP_PACKET in the SLES
source) and would crash in blkif_int() as the ID in the response would
be invalid.

There is a bug introduced with commit 27c2127 that causes
devices which are hot unplugged and then hot-replugged to
not have per-device dma_ops set. This causes these devices
to not function correctly. Fixed with this patch.
If there are keys left during station removal, then a
synchronize_net() will be done (for each key, I have a
patch to address this for 3.10), otherwise it won't be
done at all which causes issues because the station
could be used for TX while it's being removed from the
driver -- that might confuse the driver.
Fix this by always doing synchronize_net() if no key
was present any more.

Limit the hardware's reported firmware string length (max 255 bytes) to
stay inside the driver's firmware string length (32 bytes). On overflow,
truncate the formatted firmware string instead of potentially overwriting
portions of the tg3 struct.
When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers
bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example:
offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j];
formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat
number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes:
0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25.
Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring".
When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume.
The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source
firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected.
This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less
than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one
header/data pair.
Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times
per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver,
this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch
logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming
the logs.

For the s626 driver, there is a bug in the handling of asynchronous
commands on the AI subdevice when the stop source is `TRIG_NONE`. The
command should run continuously until cancelled, but the interrupt
handler stops the command running after the first scan.
The command set-up function `s626_ai_cmd()` contains this code:
switch (cmd->stop_src) {
case TRIG_COUNT:
/* data arrives as one packet */
devpriv->ai_sample_count = cmd->stop_arg;
devpriv->ai_continous = 0;
break;
case TRIG_NONE:
/* continous acquisition */
devpriv->ai_continous = 1;
devpriv->ai_sample_count = 0;
break;
}
The interrupt handler `s626_irq_handler()` contains this code:
if (!(devpriv->ai_continous))
devpriv->ai_sample_count--;
if (devpriv->ai_sample_count <= 0) {
devpriv->ai_cmd_running = 0;
/* ... */
}
So `devpriv->ai_sample_count` is only decremented for the `TRIG_COUNT`
case, but `devpriv->ai_cmd_running` is set to 0 (and the command
stopped) regardless.
Fix this in `s626_ai_cmd()` by setting `devpriv->ai_sample_count = 1`
for the `TRIG_NONE` case. The interrupt handler will not decrement it
so it will remain greater than 0 and the check for stopping the
acquisition will fail.

This patch (as1670) fixes a regression caused by commit 6402c796d3b4205d3d7296157956c5100a05d7d6 (USB: EHCI: work around
silicon bug in Intel's EHCI controllers). The workaround goes through
two IAA cycles for each QH being unlinked. During the first cycle,
the QH is not added to the async_iaa list (because it isn't fully gone
from the hardware yet), which means that list will be empty.
Unfortunately, I forgot to update the IAA watchdog timer routine. It
thinks that an empty async_iaa list means the timer expiration was an
error, which isn't true any more. This problem didn't show up during
initial testing because the controllers being tested all had working
IAA interrupts. But not all controllers do, and when the watchdog
timer expires, the empty-list check prevents the second IAA cycle from
starting. As a result, URB unlinks never complete. The check needs
to be removed.
Among the symptoms of the regression are processes stuck in D wait
states and hangs during system shutdown.

This patch (as1663) fixes a regression caused by commit 6e0c3339a6f19d748f16091d0a05adeb1e1f822b (USB: EHCI: unlink one async
QH at a time). In order to avoid keeping multiple QHs in an unusable
intermediate state, that commit changed unlink_empty_async() so that
it unlinks only one empty QH at a time.
However, when the EHCI root hub is suspended, _all_ async QHs need to
be unlinked. ehci_bus_suspend() used to do this by calling
unlink_empty_async(), but now this only unlinks one of the QHs, not
all of them.
The symptom is that when the root hub is resumed, USB communications
don't work for some period of time. This is because ehci-hcd doesn't
realize it needs to restart the async schedule; it assumes that
because some QHs are already on the schedule, the schedule must be
running.
The easiest way to fix the problem is add a new function that unlinks
all the async QHs when the root hub is suspended.
This patch should be applied to all kernels that have the 6e0c3339a6f1

Even though there are no ill effects being observed from the swapped

with it already set to 1 so it was clearing itself even though we were
setting IMAN_IE instead of IMAN_IP), we should still correct the values.

Currently tick_check_broadcast_device doesn't reject clock_event_devices

dummy timer is responsible for broadcasting to itself, and the core
clockevents code may attempt to call non-existent callbacks for

A number of problems can occur due to races between
resync/recovery and discard.
- if sync_request calls handle_stripe() while a discard is
happening on the stripe, it might call handle_stripe_clean_event
before all of the individual discard requests have completed
(so some devices are still locked, but not all).
Since commit ca64cae96037de16e4af92678814f5d4bf0c1c65
md/raid5: Make sure we clear R5_Discard when discard is finished.
this will cause R5_Discard to be cleared for the parity device,
so handle_stripe_clean_event() will not be called when the other
devices do become unlocked, so their ->written will not be cleared.
This ultimately leads to a WARN_ON in init_stripe and a lock-up.
- If handle_stripe_clean_event() does clear R5_UPTODATE at an awkward
time for resync, it can lead to s->uptodate being less than disks
in handle_parity_checks5(), which triggers a BUG (because it is
one).
So:
- keep R5_Discard on the parity device until all other devices have
completed their discard request
- make sure we don't try to have a 'discard' and a 'sync' action at
the same time.
This involves a new stripe flag to we know when a 'discard' is
happening, and the use of R5_Overlap on the parity disk so when a
discard is wanted while a sync is active, so we know to wake up
the discard at the appropriate time.
Discard support for RAID5 was added in 3.7, so this is suitable for
any -stable kernel since 3.7.
MD RAID5: Fix kernel oops when RAID4/5/6 is used via device-mapper
Commit a9add5d (v3.8-rc1) added blktrace calls to the RAID4/5/6 driver.
However, when device-mapper is used to create RAID4/5/6 arrays, the
mddev->gendisk and mddev->queue fields are not setup. Therefore, calling
things like trace_block_bio_remap will cause a kernel oops. This patch
conditionalizes those calls on whether the proper fields exist to make
the calls. (Device-mapper will call trace_block_bio_remap on its own.)
This patch is suitable for the 3.8.y stable kernel.
It has been possible for handle_stripe_dirtying to be called
when there isn't actually any work to do.
It then calls schedule_reconstruction() which will set R5_LOCKED
on the parity block(s) even when nothing else is happening.
This then causes problems in do_release_stripe().
So add checks to schedule_reconstruction() so that if it doesn't
find anything to do, it just aborts.
This bug was introduced in v3.7, so the patch is suitable
for -stable kernels since then.
A problem was found on PC's with the SB700 chipset: The PC fails to
load BIOS after running the 3.8.x kernel until the power is completely
cut off. It occurs in all 3.8.x versions and the mainline version as of
2/4. The issue does not occur with the 3.7.x builds.
There are two methods for accessing the watchdog registers.
1. Re-programming a resource address obtained by allocate_resource()
to chipset.
2. Use the direct memory-mapped IO access.
The method 1 can be used by all the chipsets (SP5100, SB7x0, SB8x0 or
later). However, experience shows that only PC with the SB8x0 (or
later) chipsets can use the method 2.
This patch removes the method 1, because the critical problem was found.
That's why the watchdog timer was able to be used on SP5100 and SB7x0
chipsets until now.
The AcpiMmioSel bit is bit 1 in the AcpiMmioEn register, but the current
sp5100_tco driver is using bit 2.
See 2.3.3 Power Management (PM) Registers page 150 of the
AMD SB800-Series Southbridges Register Reference Guide [1].
AcpiMmioEn - RW – 8/16/32 bits - [PM_Reg: 24h]
Field Name Bits Default Description
AcpiMMioDecodeEn 0 0b Set to 1 to enable AcpiMMio space.
AcpiMMIoSel 1 0b Set AcpiMMio registers to be memory-mapped or IO-mapped space.
0: Memory-mapped space
1: I/O-mapped space
The sp5100_tco driver expects zero as a value of AcpiMmioSel (bit 1).
Fortunately, no problems were caused by this typo, because the default

Commit f0dc117abdfa ("IPoIB: Fix TX queue lockup with mixed UD/CM
traffic") attempts to solve an issue where unprocessed UD send
completions can deadlock the netdev.
The patch doesn't fully resolve the issue because if more than half
the tx_outstanding's were UD and all of the destinations are RC
reachable, arming the CQ doesn't solve the issue.
This patch uses the IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS on the
ib_req_notify_cq(). If the rc is above 0, the UD send cq completion
callback is called directly to re-arm the send completion timer.
This issue is seen in very large parallel filesystem deployments
and the patch has been shown to correct the issue.

In data=journal mode, if we unmount the file system before a
transaction has a chance to complete, when the journal inode is being
evicted, we can end up calling into jbd2_log_wait_commit() for the
last transaction, after the journalling machinery has been shut down.
Arguably we should adjust ext4_should_journal_data() to return FALSE
for the journal inode, but the only place it matters is
ext4_evict_inode(), and so to save a bit of CPU time, and to make the
patch much more obviously correct by inspection(tm), we'll fix it by
explicitly not trying to waiting for a journal commit when we are
evicting the journal inode, since it's guaranteed to never succeed in
this case.
This can be easily replicated via:
mount -t ext4 -o data=journal /dev/vdb /vdb ; umount /vdb
Currently when converting extent to initialized, we have to decide
whether to zeroout part/all of the uninitialized extent in order to
avoid extent tree growing rapidly.
The decision is made by comparing the size of the extent with the
configurable value s_extent_max_zeroout_kb which is in kibibytes units.
However when converting it to number of blocks we currently use it as it
was in bytes. This is obviously bug and it will result in ext4 _never_
zeroout extents, but rather always split and convert parts to
initialized while leaving the rest uninitialized in default setting.
Fix this by using s_extent_max_zeroout_kb as kibibytes.
A user who was using a 8TB+ file system and with a very large flexbg
size (> 65536) could cause the atomic_t used in the struct flex_groups
to overflow. This was detected by PaX security patchset:
This commit fixes a wrong return value of the number of the allocated
blocks in ext4_split_extent. When the length of blocks we want to
allocate is greater than the length of the current extent, we return a
wrong number. Let's see what happens in the following case when we
call ext4_split_extent().
map: [48, 72]
ex: [32, 64, u]
'ex' will be split into two parts:
ex1: [32, 47, u]
ex2: [48, 64, w]
'map->m_len' is returned from this function, and the value is 24. But
the real length is 16. So it should be fixed.
Meanwhile in this commit we use right length of the allocated blocks
when get_reserved_cluster_alloc in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents
is called.
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() didn't get a reference to journal_head it
was working with. This is OK in most of the cases since the journal head
should be attached to a transaction but in rare occasions when we are
journalling data, __ext4_journalled_writepage() can race with
jbd2_journal_invalidatepage() stripping buffers from a page and thus
journal head can be freed under hands of jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata().
Fix the problem by getting own journal head reference in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() (and also in jbd2_journal_set_triggers()
which can possibly have the same issue).

We've had several reports of people attempting to mount Windows 8 shares
and getting failures with a return code of -EINVAL. The default sec=
mode changed recently to sec=ntlmssp. With that, we expect and parse a
SPNEGO blob from the server in the NEGOTIATE reply.
The current decode_negTokenInit function first parses all of the
mechTypes and then tries to parse the rest of the negTokenInit reply.
The parser however currently expects a mechListMIC or nothing to follow the
mechTypes, but Windows 8 puts a mechToken field there instead to carry
some info for the new NegoEx stuff.
In practice, we don't do anything with the fields after the mechTypes
anyway so I don't see any real benefit in continuing to parse them.
This patch just has the kernel ignore the fields after the mechTypes.
We'll probably need to reinstate some of this if we ever want to support
NegoEx.

A deadlock was found in the prefetch code in the dm verity map
function. This patch fixes this by transferring the prefetch
to a worker thread and skipping it completely if kmalloc fails.
If generic_make_request is called recursively, it queues the I/O
request on the current->bio_list without making the I/O request
and returns. The routine making the recursive call cannot wait
for the I/O to complete.
The deadlock occurs when one thread grabs the bufio_client
mutex and waits for an I/O to complete but the I/O is queued
on another thread's current->bio_list and is waiting to get
the mutex held by the first thread.
The fix recognises that prefetching is not essential. If memory
can be allocated, it queues the prefetch request to the worker thread,
but if not, it does nothing.

Fix a bug in dm_btree_remove that could leave leaf values with incorrect
reference counts. The effect of this was that removal of a shared block
could result in the space maps thinking the block was no longer used.
More concretely, if you have a thin device and a snapshot of it, sending
a discard to a shared region of the thin could corrupt the snapshot.
Thinp uses a 2-level nested btree to store it's mappings. This first
level is indexed by thin device, and the second level by logical
block.
Often when we're removing an entry in this mapping tree we need to
rebalance nodes, which can involve shadowing them, possibly creating a
copy if the block is shared. If we do create a copy then children of
that node need to have their reference counts incremented. In this
way reference counts percolate down the tree as shared trees diverge.
The rebalance functions were incrementing the children at the
appropriate time, but they were always assuming the children were
internal nodes. This meant the leaf values (in our case packed
block/flags entries) were not being incremented.

hugetlb_total_pages is used for overcommit calculations but the current
implementation considers only the default hugetlb page size (which is
either the first defined hugepage size or the one specified by
default_hugepagesz kernel boot parameter).
If the system is configured for more than one hugepage size, which is
possible since commit a137e1cc6d6e ("hugetlbfs: per mount huge page
sizes") then the overcommit estimation done by __vm_enough_memory()
(resp. shown by meminfo_proc_show) is not precise - there is an
impression of more available/allowed memory. This can lead to an
unexpected ENOMEM/EFAULT resp. SIGSEGV when memory is accounted.
Testcase:
boot: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=1
the default overcommit ratio is 50

On some revisions of AT91 SoCs, the RTC IMR register is not working.
Instead of elaborating a workaround for that specific SoC or IP version,
we simply use a software variable to store the Interrupt Mask Register
and modify it for each enabling/disabling of an interrupt. The overhead
of this is negligible anyway.
The interrupt mask register (IMR) for the RTC is broken on the AT91SAM9x5
sub-family of SoCs (good overview of the members here:
http://www.eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/AT91SAM9x5 ). The "user visible
effect" is the RTC doesn't work.
That sub-family is less than two years old and only has devicetree (DT)
support and came online circa lk 3.7 . The dust is yet to settle on the
DT stuff at least for AT91 SoCs (translation: lots of stuff is still
broken, so much that it is hard to know where to start).
The fix in the patch is pretty simple: just shadow the silicon IMR
register with a variable in the driver. Some older SoCs (pre-DT) use the
the rtc-at91rm9200 driver (e.g. obviously the AT91RM9200) and they should
not be impacted by the change. There shouldn't be a large volume of
interrupts associated with a RTC.

When KMS has parsed an EDID "detailed timing", it leaves the frame rate
zeroed. Consecutive (debug-) output of that mode thus yields 0 for
vsync. This simple fix also speeds up future invocations of
drm_mode_vrefresh().
While it is debatable whether this qualifies as a -stable fix I'd apply
it for consistency's sake; drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes()
does the same thing already for all probed modes.
EDID spreads some values across multiple bytes; bit-fiddling is needed
to retrieve these. The current code to parse "detailed timings" has a
cut&paste error that results in a vsync offset of at most 15 lines
instead of 63.
See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDID
and in the "EDID Detailed Timing Descriptor" see bytes 10+11 show why
that needs to be a left shift.
NVIDIA's Tegra SoC allows read/write of controller register only
if controller clock is enabled. System hangs if read/write happens

success then only access register otherwise return to caller with

fixed a regression in 3.6-rc kernels for which we've never figured out
the exact root cause. But some further inspection of the backlight
code reveals that it's seriously lacking locking. And especially the
asle backlight update is know to get fired (through some smm magic)
when writing specific backlight control registers. So the possibility
of suffering from races is rather real.
Until those races are fixed I don't think it makes sense to try
further hacks. Which sucks a bit, but sometimes that's how it is :(

Because function tracing is very invasive, and can even trace
calls to rcu_read_lock(), RCU access in function tracing is done
with preempt_disable_notrace(). This requires a synchronize_sched()
for updates and not a synchronize_rcu().
Function probes (traceon, traceoff, etc) must be freed after
a synchronize_sched() after its entry has been removed from the
hash. But call_rcu() is used. Fix this by using call_rcu_sched().
Also fix the usage to use hlist_del_rcu() instead of hlist_del().

Although the swap is wrapped with a spin_lock, the assignment
of the temp buffer used to swap is not within that lock.
It needs to be moved into that lock, otherwise two swaps
happening on two different CPUs, can end up using the wrong
temp buffer to assign in the swap.
Luckily, all current callers of the swap function appear to have
their own locks. But in case something is added that allows two
different callers to call the swap, then there's a chance that
this race can trigger and corrupt the buffers.
New code is coming soon that will allow for this race to trigger.

Dave Jones found another /proc issue with his Trinity tool: thanks to
the namespace model, we can have multiple /proc dentries that point to
the same inode, aliasing directories in /proc/<pid>/net/ for example.
This ends up being a total disaster, because it acts like hardlinked
directories, and causes locking problems. We rely on the topological
sort of the inodes pointed to by dentries, and if we have aliased
directories, that odering becomes unreliable.
In short: don't do this. Multiple dentries with the same (directory)
inode is just a bad idea, and the namespace code should never have
exposed things this way. But we're kind of stuck with it.
This solves things by just always allocating a new inode during /proc
dentry lookup, instead of using "iget_locked()" to look up existing
inodes by superblock and number. That actually simplies the code a bit,
at the cost of potentially doing more inode [de]allocations.
That said, the inode lookup wasn't free either (and did a lot of locking
of inodes), so it is probably not that noticeable. We could easily keep
the old lookup model for non-directory entries, but rather than try to
be excessively clever this just implements the minimal and simplest
workaround for the problem.

Creation of individual mixer controls may fail, but that shouldn't cause
the entire mixer creation to fail. Even worse, if the mixer creation
fails, that will error out the entire device probing.
All the functions called by parse_audio_unit() should return -EINVAL if
they find descriptors that are unsupported or believed to be malformed,
so we can safely handle this error code as a non-fatal condition in
snd_usb_mixer_controls().
That fixes a long standing bug which is commonly worked around by
adding quirks which make the driver ignore entire interfaces. Some of
them might now be unnecessary.
In check_input_term() and parse_audio_feature_unit(), propagate the
error value that has been returned by a failing function instead of
-EINVAL. That helps cleaning up the error pathes in the mixer.
UAC2_EXTENSION_UNIT_V2 differs from UAC1_EXTENSION_UNIT, but can be handled in
the same way when parsing the unit. Otherwise parse_audio_unit() fails when it
sees an extension unit on a UAC2 device.
UAC2_EXTENSION_UNIT_V2 is outside the range allocated by UAC1.
