Orphan cleanup is currently executed even if the file system has some
number of unknown ROCOMPAT features, which deletes inodes and frees
blocks, which could be very bad for some RO_COMPAT features,
especially the SNAPSHOT feature.
This patch skips the orphan cleanup if it contains readonly compatible
features not known by this ext4 implementation, which would prevent
the fs from being mounted (or remounted) readwrite.
The dcdbas driver can do an I/O write to cause a SMI to occur. The SMI handler
looks at certain registers and memory locations, so the SMI needs to happen
immediately. On some systems I/O writes are posted, though, causing the SMI to
happen well after the "outb" occurred, which causes random failures. Following
the "outb" with an "inb" forces the write to go through even if it is posted.

While trying to track down some NFS problems with BTRFS, I kept noticing I was
getting -EACCESS for no apparent reason. Eric Paris and printk() helped me
figure out that it was SELinux that was giving me grief, with the following
denial
Turns out this is because in d_obtain_alias if we can't find an alias we create
one and do all the normal instantiation stuff, but we don't do the
security_d_instantiate.
Usually we are protected from getting a hashed dentry that hasn't yet run
security_d_instantiate() by the parent's i_mutex, but obviously this isn't an
option there, so in order to deal with the case that a second thread comes in
and finds our new dentry before we get to run security_d_instantiate(), we go
ahead and call it if we find a dentry already. Eric assures me that this is ok
as the code checks to see if the dentry has been initialized already so calling
security_d_instantiate() against the same dentry multiple times is ok. With
this patch I'm no longer getting errant -EACCESS values.

If we call xs_close(), we're in one of two situations:
- Autoclose, which means we don't expect to resend a request
- bind+connect failed, which probably means the port is in use
When one of the two waits in nfs_commit_inode() is interrupted, it
returns a non-negative value, which causes nfs_wb_page() to think
that the operation was successful causing it to busy-loop rather
than exiting.
It also causes nfs_file_fsync() to incorrectly report the file as
being successfully committed to disk.
This patch fixes both problems by ensuring that we return an error
if the attempts to wait fail.
When destroying inherited events, we need to destroy groups too,
otherwise the event iteration in perf_event_exit_task_context() will
miss group siblings and we leak events with all the consequences.
On some servers there is a hardcoded EDID provided
in the vbios so that the driver will always see a
display connected even if something like a KVM
prevents traditional means like DDC or load
detection from working properly. Also most
server boards with DVI are not actually DVI, but
DVO connected to a virtual KVM service processor.
If we fail to detect a monitor via DDC or load
detection and a hardcoded EDID is available, use
it.
Additionally, when using the hardcoded EDID, use
a copy of it rather than the actual one stored
in the driver as the detect() and get_modes()
functions may free it if DDC is successful.
This fixes the virtual KVM on several internal
servers.

When i915_gem_retire_requests_ring calls i915_gem_request_remove_from_client,
the client_list for that request may already be removed in i915_gem_release.
So we may call twice list_del(&request->client_list), resulting in an
oops like this report:
Unfortunately the call trace reported was cut, but looking at debug
symbols the crash is at __list_del, when probably list_del is called
twice on the same request->client_list, as the dereferenced value is
LIST_POISON1 + 4, and by looking more at the debug symbols before
list_del call it should have being called by
i915_gem_request_remove_from_client
And as I can see in the code, it seems we indeed have the possibility
to remove a request->client_list twice, which would cause the above,
because we do list_del(&request->client_list) on both
i915_gem_request_remove_from_client and i915_gem_release
As Chris Wilson pointed out, it's indeed the case:
"(...) I had thought that the actual insertion/deletion was serialised
under the struct mutex and the intention of the spinlock was to protect
the unlocked list traversal during throttling. However, I missed that
i915_gem_release() is also called without struct mutex and so we do need
the double check for i915_gem_request_remove_from_client()."
This change does the required check to avoid the duplicate remove of
request->client_list.

Along the fast path for relocation handling, we attempt to copy directly
from the user data structures whilst holding our mutex. This causes
lockdep to warn about circular lock dependencies if we need to pagefault
the user pages. [Since when handling a page fault on a mmapped bo, we
need to acquire the struct mutex whilst already holding the mm
semaphore, it is then verboten to acquire the mm semaphore when already
holding the struct mutex. The likelihood of the user passing in the
relocations contained in a GTT mmaped bo is low, but conceivable for
extreme pathology.] In order to force the mm to return EFAULT rather
than handle the pagefault, we therefore need to disable pagefaults
across the relocation fast path.

Now cleanup_highmap actually is in two steps: one is early in head64.c
and only clears above _end; a second one is in init_memory_mapping() and
tries to clean from _brk_end to _end.
It should check if those boundaries are PMD_SIZE aligned but currently
does not.
Also init_memory_mapping() is called several times for numa or memory
hotplug, so we really should not handle initial kernel mappings there.
This patch moves cleanup_highmap() down after _brk_end is settled so
we can do everything in one step.
Also we honor max_pfn_mapped in the implementation of cleanup_highmap.

Prevent read urbs from being resubmitted from tasklet after port close.
The receive tasklet was not disabled on port close, which could lead to
corruption of receive lists on consecutive port open. In particular,
read urbs could be re-submitted before port open, added to free list in
open, and then added a second time to the free list in the completion
handler.
In the WDM class driver a disconnect event leads to calls to
usb_free_coherent to put back two USB DMA buffers allocated earlier.
The call to usb_free_coherent uses a different size parameter
(desc->wMaxCommand) than the corresponding call to usb_alloc_coherent
(desc->bMaxPacketSize0).
When a disconnect event occurs, this leads to 'bad dma' complaints
from usb core because the USB DMA buffer is being pushed back to the
'buffer-2048' pool from which it has not been allocated.
This patch against the most recent linux-2.6 kernel ensures that the
parameters used by usb_alloc_coherent & usb_free_coherent calls in
cdc-wdm.c match.

This patch (as1453) fixes a long-standing bug in the ehci-hcd driver.
There is no need to set the Halt bit in the overlay region for an
unlinked or blocked QH. Contrary to what the comment says, setting
the Halt bit does not cause the QH to be patched later; that decision
(made in qh_refresh()) depends only on whether the QH is currently
pointing to a valid qTD. Likewise, setting the Halt bit does not
prevent completions from activating the QH while it is "stopped"; they
are prevented by the fact that qh_completions() temporarily changes
qh->qh_state to QH_STATE_COMPLETING.
On the other hand, there are circumstances in which the QH will be
reactivated _without_ being patched; this happens after an URB beyond
the head of the queue is unlinked. Setting the Halt bit will then
cause the hardware to see the QH with both the Active and Halt bits
set, an invalid combination that will prevent the queue from
advancing and may even crash some controllers.
Apparently the only reason this hasn't been reported before is that
unlinking URBs from the middle of a running queue is quite uncommon.
However Test 17, recently added to the usbtest driver, does exactly
this, and it confirms the presence of the bug.
In short, there is no reason to set the Halt bit for an unlinked or
blocked QH, and there is a very good reason not to set it. Therefore
the code that sets it is removed.

Userland should be able to trust the pid and uid of the sender of a
signal if the si_code is SI_TKILL.
Unfortunately, the kernel has historically allowed sigqueueinfo() to
send any si_code at all (as long as it was negative - to distinguish it
from kernel-generated signals like SIGILL etc), so it could spoof a
SI_TKILL with incorrect siginfo values.
Happily, it looks like glibc has always set si_code to the appropriate
SI_QUEUE, so there are probably no actual user code that ever uses
anything but the appropriate SI_QUEUE flag.
So just tighten the check for si_code (we used to allow any negative
value), and add a (one-time) warning in case there are binaries out
there that might depend on using other si_code values.
A virtualized display device is usually viewed with the vncviewer
application, either by 'xm vnc domU' or with vncviewer localhost:port.
vncviewer and the RFB protocol provides absolute coordinates to the
virtual display. These coordinates are either passed through to a PV
guest or converted to relative coordinates for a HVM guest.
A PV guest receives these coordinates and passes them to the kernels
evdev driver. There it can be picked up by applications such as the
xorg-input drivers. Using absolute coordinates avoids issues such as
guest mouse pointer not tracking host mouse pointer due to wrong mouse
acceleration settings in the guests X display.
Advertise either absolute or relative coordinates to the input system
and the evdev driver, depending on what dom0 provides. The xorg-input
driver prefers relative coordinates even if a devices provides both.
If a device doesn't support power management (pm_cap == 0) but it is
acpi_pci_power_manageable() because there is a _PS0 method declared for
it and _EJ0 is also declared for the slot then nobody is going to set
current_state = PCI_D0 for this device. This is what I think it is
happening:
pci_enable_device
|
__pci_enable_device_flags
/* here we do not set current_state because !pm_cap */
|
do_pci_enable_device
|
pci_set_power_state
|
__pci_start_power_transition
|
pci_platform_power_transition
/* platform_pci_power_manageable() calls acpi_pci_power_manageable that
* returns true */
|
platform_pci_set_power_state
/* acpi_pci_set_power_state gets called and does nothing because the
* acpi device has _EJ0, see the comment "If the ACPI device has _EJ0,
* ignore the device" */
at this point if we refer to the commit message that introduced the
comment above (10b3dcae0f275e2546e55303d64ddbb58cec7599), it is up to
the hotplug driver to set the state to D0.
However AFAICT the pci hotplug driver never does, in fact
drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c:register_slot sets the slot flags to
(SLOT_ENABLED | SLOT_POWEREDON) but it does not set the pci device
current state to PCI_D0.
So my proposed fix is also to set current_state = PCI_D0 in
register_slot.
Comments are very welcome.
The oom killer naturally defers killing anything if it finds an eligible
task that is already exiting and has yet to detach its ->mm. This avoids
unnecessarily killing tasks when one is already in the exit path and may
free enough memory that the oom killer is no longer needed. This is
detected by PF_EXITING since threads that have already detached its ->mm
are no longer considered at all.
The problem with always deferring when a thread is PF_EXITING, however, is
that it may never actually exit when being traced, specifically if another
task is tracing it with PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT. The oom killer does not want
to defer in this case since there is no guarantee that thread will ever
exit without intervention.
This patch will now only defer the oom killer when a thread is PF_EXITING
and no ptracer has stopped its progress in the exit path. It also ensures
that a child is sacrificed for the chosen parent only if it has a
different ->mm as the comment implies: this ensures that the thread group
leader is always targeted appropriately.
We shouldn't defer oom killing if a thread has already detached its ->mm
and still has TIF_MEMDIE set. Memory needs to be freed, so find kill
other threads that pin the same ->mm or find another task to kill.
This patch prevents unnecessary oom kills or kernel panics by reverting
two commits:
495789a5 (oom: make oom_score to per-process value) cef1d352 (oom: multi threaded process coredump don't make deadlock)
First, 495789a5 (oom: make oom_score to per-process value) ignores the
fact that all threads in a thread group do not necessarily exit at the
same time.
It is imperative that select_bad_process() detect threads that are in the
exit path, specifically those with PF_EXITING set, to prevent needlessly
killing additional tasks. If a process is oom killed and the thread group
leader exits, select_bad_process() cannot detect the other threads that
are PF_EXITING by iterating over only processes. Thus, it currently
chooses another task unnecessarily for oom kill or panics the machine when
nothing else is eligible.
By iterating over threads instead, it is possible to detect threads that
are exiting and nominate them for oom kill so they get access to memory
reserves.
Second, cef1d352 (oom: multi threaded process coredump don't make
deadlock) erroneously avoids making the oom killer a no-op when an
eligible thread other than current isfound to be exiting. We want to
detect this situation so that we may allow that exiting thread time to
exit and free its memory; if it is able to exit on its own, that should
free memory so current is no loner oom. If it is not able to exit on its
own, the oom killer will nominate it for oom kill which, in this case,
only means it will get access to memory reserves.
Without this change, it is easy for the oom killer to unnecessarily target
tasks when all threads of a victim don't exit before the thread group
leader or, in the worst case, panic the machine.
This patch reverts 5a03b051 ("thp: use compaction in kswapd for GFP_ATOMIC
order > 0") due to reports stating that kswapd CPU usage was higher and
IRQs were being disabled more frequently. This was reported at
http://www.spinics.net/linux/fedora/alsa-user/msg09885.html.
Without this patch applied, CPU usage by kswapd hovers around the 20% mark
according to the tester (Arthur Marsh:
http://www.spinics.net/linux/fedora/alsa-user/msg09899.html). With this
patch applied, it's around 2%.
The problem is not related to THP which specifies __GFP_NO_KSWAPD but is
triggered by high-order allocations hitting the low watermark for their
order and waking kswapd on kernels with CONFIG_COMPACTION set. The most
common trigger for this is network cards configured for jumbo frames but
it's also possible it'll be triggered by fork-heavy workloads (order-1)
and some wireless cards which depend on order-1 allocations.
The symptoms for the user will be high CPU usage by kswapd in low-memory
situations which could be confused with another writeback problem. While
a patch like 5a03b051 may be reintroduced in the future, this patch plays
it safe for now and reverts it.

If an administrator tries to swapon a file backed by NFS, the inode mutex is
taken (as it is for any swapfile) but later identified to be a bad swapfile
due to the lack of bmap and tries to cleanup. During cleanup, an attempt is
made to close the file but with inode->i_mutex still held. Closing an NFS
file syncs it which tries to acquire the inode mutex leading to deadlock. If
lockdep is enabled the following appears on the console;
=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.38-rc8-autobuild #1

swapon/2192 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:

1 lock held by swapon/2192:
#0: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#13){+.+.+.}, at: sys_swapon+0x28d/0xae7
This patch releases the mutex if its held before calling filep_close()
so swapon fails as expected without deadlock when the swapfile is backed
by NFS. If accepted for 2.6.39, it should also be considered a -stable
candidate for 2.6.38 and 2.6.37.
Up to 2.6.22, you could use remap_file_pages(2) on a tmpfs file or a

mappings. We made sure to set it in shmem_mmap() for tmpfs files, but
missed it in shmem_zero_setup() for the others. Fix that at last.
list_del() leaves poison in the prev and next pointers. The next
list_empty() will compare those poisons, and say the list isn't empty.
Any list operations that assume the node is on a list because of such a
check will be fooled into dereferencing poison. One needs to INIT the
node after the del, and fortunately there's already a wrapper for that -
list_del_init().
Some of the dels are followed by deallocations, so can be ignored, and one
can be merged with an add to make a move. Apart from that, I erred on the
side of caution in making nodes list_empty()-queriable.

ASoC audio for mini2440 platform in current kenrel doesn't work.
First problem is samsung_asoc_dma device is missing in initialization.
Next problem is with codec. Codec is initialized but never probed
because no platform_device exist for codec driver. It leads to errors
during codec binding to asoc dai. Next problem was platform data which
was passed from board to asoc main driver but not passed to codec when
called codec_soc_probe().
Following patch should fix issues. But not sure if in correct way.

The MUSB driver doesn't see its platform device on DM644x EVM board anymore
since commit 73b089b052a69020b953312a624a6e1eb5b81fab (usb: musb: split davinci
to its own platform_driver) because the new probe is called as subsys_initcall()
now, and the device is registered later than that by the board code. Move the
registration to davinci_evm_init() -- it's safe to do so because the MUSB core
device still gets initialized as fs_initcall() -- which is late enough for the
I2C GPIO expander (which controls VBUS) to be initialized.

The latest binutils (2.21.0.20110302/Ubuntu) breaks the build
yet another time, under CONFIG_XEN=y due to a .size directive that
refers to a slightly differently named (hence, to the now very
strict and unforgiving assembler, non-existent) symbol.
[ mingo:
This unnecessary build breakage caused by new binutils
version 2.21 gets escallated back several kernel releases spanning
several years of Linux history, affecting over 130,000 upstream
kernel commits (!), on CONFIG_XEN=y 64-bit kernels (i.e. essentially
affecting all major Linux distro kernel configs).
Git annotate tells us that this slight debug symbol code mismatch
bug has been introduced in 2008 in commit 3d75e1b8:
Human reviewers almost never catch such small mismatches, and binutils
never even warned about it either.
This new binutils version thus breaks the Xen build on all upstream kernels
since v2.6.27, out of the blue.
This makes a straightforward Git bisection of all 64-bit Xen-enabled kernels
impossible on such binutils, for a bisection window of over hundred
thousand historic commits. (!)
This is a major fail on the side of binutils and binutils needs to turn
this show-stopper build failure into a warning ASAP. ]

This caused the card to be deselected instead of selected when using

This device does not tolerate delayed opening and goes into a coma if
we try to that. Ubuntu even has a crutch for udev that opened the device
upon seeing it for the first time, but it did not work if we happened to
boot with the device attached, since by the time userspace got around
opening the device it was too late. Let's start the device immediately
to deal with this issue.
According to intel CPU manual, every time PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE
mode, we need do a full TLB flush. Current code follows this and there is
comment for this too in the code.
But current code misses the multi-threaded case. A changed page table
might be used by several CPUs, every such CPU should flush TLB. Usually
this isn't a problem, because we prepopulate all PGD entries at process
fork. But when the process does munmap and follows new mmap, this issue
will be triggered.
When it happens, some CPUs keep doing page faults:
Mike Galbraith reported finding a lockup ("perma-spin bug") where the
cpumask passed to smp_call_function_many was cleared by other cpu(s)
while a cpu was preparing its call_data block, resulting in no cpu to
clear the last ref and unlock the block.
Having cpus clear their bit asynchronously could be useful on a mask of
cpus that might have a translation context, or cpus that need a push to
complete an rcu window.
Instead of adding a BUG_ON and requiring yet another cpumask copy, just
detect the race and handle it.
Note: arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask must still handle an empty
cpumask because the data block is globally visible before the that arch
callback is made. And (obviously) there are no guarantees to which cpus
are notified if the mask is changed during the call; only cpus that were
online and had their mask bit set during the whole call are guaranteed
to be called.

Paul McKenney's review pointed out two problems with the barriers in the
2.6.38 update to the smp call function many code.
First, a barrier that would force the func and info members of data to
be visible before their consumption in the interrupt handler was
missing. This can be solved by adding a smp_wmb between setting the
func and info members and setting setting the cpumask; this will pair
with the existing and required smp_rmb ordering the cpumask read before
the read of refs. This placement avoids the need a second smp_rmb in
the interrupt handler which would be executed on each of the N cpus
executing the call request. (I was thinking this barrier was present
but was not).
Second, the previous write to refs (establishing the zero that we the
interrupt handler was testing from all cpus) was performed by a third
party cpu. This would invoke transitivity which, as a recient or
concurrent addition to memory-barriers.txt now explicitly states, would
require a full smp_mb().
However, we know the cpumask will only be set by one cpu (the data
owner) and any preivous iteration of the mask would have cleared by the
reading cpu. By redundantly writing refs to 0 on the owning cpu before
the smp_wmb, the write to refs will follow the same path as the writes
that set the cpumask, which in turn allows us to keep the barrier in the
interrupt handler a smp_rmb instead of promoting it to a smp_mb (which
will be be executed by N cpus for each of the possible M elements on the
list).
I moved and expanded the comment about our (ab)use of the rcu list
primitives for the concurrent walk earlier into this function. I
considered moving the first two paragraphs to the queue list head and
lock, but felt it would have been too disconected from the code.

Peter pointed out there was nothing preventing the list_del_rcu in
smp_call_function_interrupt from running before the list_add_rcu in
smp_call_function_many.
Fix this by not setting refs until we have gotten the lock for the list.
Take advantage of the wmb in list_add_rcu to save an explicit additional
one.
I tried to force this race with a udelay before the lock & list_add and
by mixing all 64 online cpus with just 3 random cpus in the mask, but
was unsuccessful. Still, inspection shows a valid race, and the fix is
a extension of the existing protection window in the current code.

Some versions of grep don't treat '\s' properly. When building perf on such
systems and using a kernel tarball the perf version is unable to be determined
from the main kernel Makefile and the user is left with a version of '..'.
Replacing the use of '\s' with '[[:space:]]', which should work in all grep
versions, gives a usable version number.
Events on POWER7 can roll back if a speculative event doesn't

RPC task RPC_TASK_QUEUED bit is set must be checked before trying to wake up
task rpc_killall_tasks() because task->tk_waitqueue can not be set (equal to
NULL).
Also, as Trond Myklebust mentioned, such approach (instead of checking
tk_waitqueue to NULL) allows us to "optimise away the call to
rpc_wake_up_queued_task() altogether for those
tasks that aren't queued".
Here is an example of dereferencing of tk_waitqueue equal to NULL:
This fixes a race in which the task->tk_callback() puts the rpc_task
to sleep, setting a new callback. Under certain circumstances, the current
code may end up executing the task->tk_action before it gets round to the
callback.

loopback_pos_update() can be called in the timer callback, thus the lock
held should be irq-safe. Otherwise you'll get AB/BA deadlock together
with substream->self_group.lock.
The user-supplied index into the adapters array needs to be checked, or
an out-of-bounds kernel pointer could be accessed and used, leading to
potentially exploitable memory corruption.
Commit 280c73d ("PCI: centralize the capabilities code in
pci-sysfs.c") changed the initialisation of the "rom" and "vpd"
attributes, and made the failure path for the "vpd" attribute
incorrect. We must free the new attribute structure (attr), but
instead we currently free dev->vpd->attr. That will normally be NULL,
resulting in a memory leak, but it might be a stale pointer, resulting
in a double-free.
Some broken BIOSes on ICH4 chipset report an ACPI region which is in
conflict with legacy IDE ports when ACPI is disabled. Even though the
regions overlap, IDE ports are working correctly (we cannot find out
the decoding rules on chipsets).
So the only problem is the reported region itself, if we don't reserve
the region in the quirk everything works as expected.
This patch avoids reserving any quirk regions below PCIBIOS_MIN_IO
which is 0x1000. Some regions might be (and are by a fast google
query) below this border, but the only difference is that they won't
be reserved anymore. They should still work though the same as before.
The conflicts look like (1f.0 is bridge, 1f.1 is IDE ctrl):
pci 0000:00:1f.1: address space collision: [io 0x0170-0x0177] conflicts with 0000:00:1f.0 [io 0x0100-0x017f]
At 0x0100 a 128 bytes long ACPI region is reported in the quirk for
ICH4. ata_piix then fails to find disks because the IDE legacy ports
are zeroed:
ata_piix 0000:00:1f.1: device not available (can't reserve [io 0x0000-0x0007])
Per ICH4 and ICH6 specs, ACPI and GPIO regions are valid iff ACPI_EN
and GPIO_EN bits are set to 1. Add checks for these bits into the
quirks prior to the region creation.
If BIOS doesn't allocate resources for the SR-IOV BARs, zero the Flash
BAR and program the SR-IOV BARs to use the old Flash Memory Space.

As reported on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1594007 the

The magic trackpad and mouse both report touch orientation in opposite
direction to the bcm5974 driver and what is written in
Documents/input/multi-touch-protocol.txt. This patch reverts the
direction, so that all in-kernel devices with this feature behave the
same way.
Since no known application has been utilizing this information yet, it
seems appropriate also for stable.
