Due to an erratum with certain AMD Athlon 64 processors, the

Unfortunately, in at least one case, the BIOS does this even

x86, mce: therm_throt - change when we print messages
My Latitude d630 seems to be handling thermal events in SMI by
lowering the max frequency of the CPU till it cools down but
still leaks the "everything is normal" events.
This spams the console and with high priority printks.
Adjust therm_throt driver to only print messages about the fact
that temperatire returned back to normal when leaving the
throttling state.
Also lower the severity of "back to normal" message from
KERN_CRIT to KERN_INFO.

Wei Chong Tan reported a fast-PIT-calibration corner-case:
| pit_expect_msb() is vulnerable to SMI disturbance corner case
| in some platforms which causes /proc/cpuinfo to show wrong
| CPU MHz value when quick_pit_calibrate() jumps to success
| section.
I think that the real issue isn't even an SMI - but the fact
that in the very last iteration of the loop, there's no
serializing instruction _after_ the last 'rdtsc'. So even in
the absense of SMI's, we do have a situation where the cycle
counter was read without proper serialization.
The last check should be done outside the outer loop, since
_inside_ the outer loop, we'll be testing that the PIT has
the right MSB value has the right value in the next iteration.
So only the _last_ iteration is special, because that's the one
that will not check the PIT MSB value any more, and because the
final 'get_cycles()' isn't serialized.
In other words:
- I'd like to move the PIT MSB check to after the last
iteration, rather than in every iteration
- I think we should comment on the fact that it's also a
serializing instruction and so 'fences in' the TSC read.

perf_counter: Fix/complete ftrace event records sampling
This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event
record sampling.
A new counter sampling attribute is added:
PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD
which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case
if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint
fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the
perfcounter event buffer, as a sample.
Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf
record:
perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution
perf report -D
- Userspace support ('perf trace'), 'flight data recorder' mode
for perf trace, etc.
- The unconditional copy from the profiling callback brings
some costs however if someone wants no such sampling to
occur, and needs to be fixed in the future. For that we need
to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute.
This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event.
- Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record
a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in
the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity.
That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity
protection.

KVM: Avoid redelivery of edge interrupt before next edge
The check for an edge is broken in current ioapic code. ioapic->irr is
cleared on each edge interrupt by ioapic_service() and this makes
old_irr != ioapic->irr condition in kvm_ioapic_set_irq() to be always
true. The patch fixes the code to properly recognise edge.
Some HW emulation calls set_irq() without level change. If each such
call is propagated to an OS it may confuse a device driver. This is the
case with keyboard device emulation and Windows XP x64 installer on SMP VM.
Each keystroke produce two interrupts (down/up) one interrupt is
submitted to CPU0 and another to CPU1. This confuses Windows somehow
and it ignores keystrokes.

drm: When adding probed modes, preserve duplicate mode types
The code which takes probed modes and adds them to a connector eliminates
duplicate modes by comparing them using drm_mode_equal. That function
doesn't consider the type bits, which means that any modes which differ only
in the type field will be lost.
One of the bits in the mode->type field is the DRM_MODE_TYPE_PREFERRED bit.
If the mode with that bit is lost, then higher level code will not know
which mode to select, causing a random mode to be used instead.
This patch simply merges the two mode type bits together; that seems
reasonable to me, but perhaps only a subset of the bits should be used? None
of these can be user defined as they all come from looking at just the
hardware.

USB: EHCI: fix two new bugs related to Clear-TT-Buffer
This patch (as1273) fixes two(!) bugs introduced by the new
Clear-TT-Buffer implementation in ehci-hcd.
It is now possible for an idle QH to have some URBs on its
queue -- this will happen if a Clear-TT-Buffer is pending for
the QH's endpoint. Consequently we should not issue a warning
when someone tries to unlink an URB from an idle QH; instead
we should process the request immediately.
The refcounts for QHs could get messed up, because
submit_async() would increment the refcount when calling
qh_link_async() and qh_link_async() would then refuse to link
the QH into the schedule if a Clear-TT-Buffer was pending.
Instead we should increment the refcount only when the QH
actually is added to the schedule. The current code tries to
be clever by leaving the refcount alone if an unlink is
immediately followed by a relink; the patch changes this to an
unconditional decrement and increment (although they occur in
the opposite order).

other callers unless knowledge of the hack is propagated to them.
This patch removes the hack by making decompress (called only from the
pre-boot environment) a wrapper function that subtracts 4 from the input
length before calling the decompressor.

execve: must clear current->clear_child_tid
While looking at Jens Rosenboom bug report
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/27/35) about strange sys_futex call done from
a dying "ps" program, we found following problem.
clone() syscall has special support for TID of created threads. This
support includes two features.
One (CLONE_CHILD_SETTID) is to set an integer into user memory with the
TID value.
One (CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID) is to clear this same integer once the created
thread dies.
The integer location is a user provided pointer, provided at clone()
time.
kernel keeps this pointer value into current->clear_child_tid.
At execve() time, we should make sure kernel doesnt keep this user
provided pointer, as full user memory is replaced by a new one.
As glibc fork() actually uses clone() syscall with CLONE_CHILD_SETTID and
CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID set, chances are high that we might corrupt user
memory in forked processes.
Following sequence could happen:
1) bash (or any program) starts a new process, by a fork() call that
glibc maps to a clone( ... CLONE_CHILD_SETTID | CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID
...) syscall
2) When new process starts, its current->clear_child_tid is set to a
location that has a meaning only in bash (or initial program) context
(&THREAD_SELF->tid)
3) This new process does the execve() syscall to start a new program.
current->clear_child_tid is left unchanged (a non NULL value)
4) If this new program creates some threads, and initial thread exits,
kernel will attempt to clear the integer pointed by
current->clear_child_tid from mm_release() :
/*
* We don't check the error code - if userspace has
* not set up a proper pointer then tough luck.
*/
<< here >> put_user(0, tidptr);
sys_futex(tidptr, FUTEX_WAKE, 1, NULL, NULL, 0);
}
5) OR : if new program is not multi-threaded, but spied by /proc/pid
users (ps command for example), mm_users > 1, and the exiting program
could corrupt 4 bytes in a persistent memory area (shm or memory mapped
file)
If current->clear_child_tid points to a writeable portion of memory of the
new program, kernel happily and silently corrupts 4 bytes of memory, with
unexpected effects.
Fix is straightforward and should not break any sane program.

The common way for the VC drivers is to set the screen dimension
parameters manually in the init case and only call vc_resize() for
!init - which allocates a screen buffer according to the new
dimensions.
fbcon instead would do vc_resize() unconditionally and afterwards set
the dimensions manually (again) for !init - i.e. completely upside
down. The vc_resize() allocated buffer would then get lost by
vc_allocate() allocating a fresh one.
Use vc_resize() only for actual resizing to close the leak.
Set the dimensions manually only in initialization mode to remove the
redundant setting in resize mode.

This fixes a bug caused by changing pointers (viafb_mode, viafb_mode1)

changing these vars as they are only read once and removing now
superfluous code.
On unpatched kernels loading viafb with viafb_mode or viafb_mode1 option
used and afterwards unloading it results in:
This is caused by the current code changing the pointers assigned by
module_param. During unload it tries to free the memory the pointers
point at which is now part of an internal structure.
The patch simply avoids changing the pointers. This is okay as they are
read only once during the initialization process.

mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY aware
At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this.
init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE]
And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this
top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY]
Before 2.6.29:
policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this.
1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed.
2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask)
Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one.
cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always.
In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c
("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed
is initialized as this.
Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat.
MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this
directly.
NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL
Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of
N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will
be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of
CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node.
This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a
Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory
hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I
think.)
mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask
should be includes only online nodes.
In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's
code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by
itself.
To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask. But,
size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack.
Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area.
NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

Well we tracked it down and it is powerpc64 specific.
Seems that in drivers/hwmon/lm93.c there's a function called:
LM93_IN_FROM_REG()
But PPC64 has function descriptors and the real function names (the ones
you see in objdump) start with a '.'. Thus this in objdump you have:
The function name used is .LM93_IN_FROM_REG. But gcc considers symbols
that start with ".L" as a special symbol that is used inside the assembly
stage.
The nm passed into recordmcount uses the --synthetic option which shows
the ".L" symbols (my runs outside of the build did not include the
--synthetic option, so my older patch worked). We see the function as a
local.
Now to capture all the locations that use "mcount" we need to have a
reference to link into the object file a list of mcount callers. We need a
reference that will not disappear. We try to use a global function and if
that does not work, we use a local function as a reference. But to relink
the section back into the object, we need to make it global. In this case,
we run objcopy using --globalize-symbol and --localize-symbol to convert
the symbol into a global symbol, link the mcount list, then convert it
back to a local symbol.
This works great except for this case. .L* symbols can not be converted
into a global symbol, and the mcount section referencing it will remain
unresolved.
