argv_split(empty_or_all_spaces) happily succeeds, it simply returns
argc == 0 and argv[0] == NULL. Change call_usermodehelper_exec() to
check sub_info->path != NULL to avoid the crash.
This is the minimal fix, todo:
- perhaps we should change argv_split() to return NULL or change the
callers.
- kill or justify ->path[0] check
- narrow the scope of helper_lock()

When a 32 bit version of ipmitool is used on a 64 bit kernel, the
ipmi_devintf code fails to correctly acquire ipmi_mutex. This results in
incomplete data being retrieved in some cases, or other possible failures.
Add a wrapper around compat_ipmi_ioctl() to take ipmi_mutex to fix this.
The EC driver works abnormally with IBF flag always set.
IBF means "The host has written a byte of data to the command
or data port, but the embedded controller has not yet read it".
If IBF is set in the EC status and not cleared, this will cause
all subsequent EC requests to fail with a timeout error.
Change the EC driver so that it doesn't refuse to restart a
transaction if IBF is set in the status. Also increase the
number of transaction restarts to 5, as it turns out that 2
is not sufficient in some cases.
This bug happens on several different machines (Asus V1S,
Dell Latitude E6530, Samsung R719, Acer Aspire 5930G,
Sony Vaio SR19VN and others).

With an automatic after split-brain recovery policy of

when trying to drbd_set_role() to R_SECONDARY,
we run into a deadlock.
This was first recognized and supposedly fixed by
2009-06-10 "Fixed a deadlock when using automatic split brain recovery when both nodes are"
replacing drbd_set_role() with drbd_change_state() in that code-path,
but the first hunk of that patch forgets to remove the drbd_set_role().
We apparently only ever tested the "two primaries" case.

We have seen multiple NULL dereferences in __inet6_lookup_established()
After analysis, I found that inet6_sk() could be NULL while the
check for sk_family == AF_INET6 was true.
Bug was added in linux-2.6.29 when RCU lookups were introduced in UDP
and TCP stacks.
Once an IPv6 socket, using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is inserted in a hash
table, we no longer can clear pinet6 field.
This patch extends logic used in commit fcbdf09d9652c891
("net: fix nulls list corruptions in sk_prot_alloc")
TCP/UDP/UDPLite IPv6 protocols provide their own .clear_sk() method
to make sure we do not clear pinet6 field.
At socket clone phase, we do not really care, as cloning the parent (non
NULL) pinet6 is not adding a fatal race.

I run this script while "ping -f" is running on another machine to send

Reason of the panic is that list_first_entry() is blindly called in
macvlan_handle_frame() even if the list was empty. vlan is set to
incorrect pointer which leads to the crash.
I'm fixing this by protecting port->vlans list by rcu and by preventing

This can be readily reproduced when putting the XO-4 in a loop where
it goes to sleep due to inactivity, but then wakes up due to an
incoming ping. The error is hit within an hour or two.
This issue happens when an interrupt comes in early while host sleep
is still activated. Driver handles this case by auto cancelling host
sleep. However is_suspended flag is still set which prevents any cmd
or data from being sent to firmware. Fix it by clearing is_suspended
flag in this path.

In the case where we are allocating for a non-extent file,
we must limit the groups we allocate from to those below
2^32 blocks, and ext4_mb_regular_allocator() attempts to
do this initially by putting a cap on ngroups for the
subsequent search loop.
However, the initial target group comes in from the
allocation context (ac), and it may already be beyond
the artificially limited ngroups. In this case,
the limit
if (group == ngroups)
group = 0;
at the top of the loop is never true, and the loop will
run away.
Catch this case inside the loop and reset the search to
start at group 0.
Prarit reported a crash on CPU offline/online. The reason is that on
CPU down the NOHZ related per cpu data of the dead cpu is not cleaned
up. If at cpu online an interrupt happens before the per cpu tick
device is registered the irq_enter() check potentially sees stale data
and dereferences a NULL pointer.
Cleanup the data after the cpu is dead.

An inactive timer's base can refer to a offline cpu's base.
In the current code, cpu_base's lock is blindly reinitialized each
time a CPU is brought up. If a CPU is brought online during the period
that another thread is trying to modify an inactive timer on that CPU
with holding its timer base lock, then the lock will be reinitialized
under its feet. This leads to following SPIN_BUG().

As an example, this particular crash occurred when CPU #3 is executing
mod_timer() on an inactive timer whose base is refered to offlined CPU
#2. The code locked the timer_base corresponding to CPU #2. Before it
could proceed, CPU #2 came online and reinitialized the spinlock
corresponding to its base. Thus now CPU #3 held a lock which was
reinitialized. When CPU #3 finally ended up unlocking the old cpu_base
corresponding to CPU #2, we hit the above SPIN_BUG().
CPU #0 CPU #3 CPU #2

..... ...... <Offline>
mod_timer()
lock_timer_base
spin_lock_irqsave(&base->lock)
Allocation of per_cpu timer vector bases is done only once under
"tvec_base_done[]" check. In the current code, spinlock_initialization
of base->lock isn't under this check. When a CPU is up each time the
base lock is reinitialized. Move base spinlock initialization under
the check.
Some arrays synchronize their full non volatile cache when the sd driver sends
a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command. Unfortunately, they can have Terrabytes of this
and we send a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE for every barrier if an array reports it has a
writeback cache. This leads to massive slowdowns on journalled filesystems.
The fix is to allow userspace to turn off the writeback cache setting as a
temporary measure (i.e. without doing the MODE SELECT to write it back to the
device), so even though the device reported it has a writeback cache, the
user, knowing that the cache is non volatile and all they care about is
filesystem correctness, can turn that bit off in the kernel and avoid the
performance ruinous (and safety irrelevant) SYNCHRONIZE CACHE commands.
The way you do this is add a 'temporary' prefix when performing the usual
cache setting operations, so
echo temporary write through > /sys/class/scsi_disk/<disk>/cache_type
we would (this a build with DEBUG enabled) get to:
smpboot: ++++++++++++++++++++=_---CPU UP 1
.. snip..
smpboot: Stack at about ffff880074c0ff44
smpboot: CPU1: has booted.
and hang. The RCU mechanism would kick in an try to IPI the CPU1
but the IPIs (and all other interrupts) would never arrive at the
CPU1. At first glance at least. A bit digging in the hypervisor
trace shows that (using xenanalyze):
there is a pending event (subsequent debugging shows it is the IPI
from the VCPU0 when smpboot.c on VCPU1 has done
"set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true)") and the guest VCPU1 is
interrupted with the callback IPI (0xf3 aka 243) which ends up calling
__xen_evtchn_do_upcall.
The __xen_evtchn_do_upcall seems to do *something* but not acknowledge
the pending events. And the moment the guest does a 'cli' (that is the ffffffff81673254 in the log above) the hypervisor is invoked again to
inject the IPI (0xf3) to tell the guest it has pending interrupts.
This repeats itself forever.
The culprit was the per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) pointer. At the bootup
we set each per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) to point to the
shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] but later on use the VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info
to register per-CPU structures (xen_vcpu_setup).
This is used to allow events for more than 32 VCPUs and for performance
optimizations reasons.
When the user performs the VCPU hotplug we end up calling the
the xen_vcpu_setup once more. We make the hypercall which returns
-EINVAL as it does not allow multiple registration calls (and
already has re-assigned where the events are being set). We pick
the fallback case and set per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) to point to the
shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] (which is a good fallback during bootup).
However the hypervisor is still setting events in the register
per-cpu structure (per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info, cpu)).
As such when the events are set by the hypervisor (such as timer one),
and when we iterate in __xen_evtchn_do_upcall we end up reading stale
events from the shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] instead of the
per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info, cpu) structures. Hence we never acknowledge the
events that the hypervisor has set and the hypervisor keeps on reminding
us to ack the events which we never do.
The fix is simple. Don't on the second time when xen_vcpu_setup is
called over-write the per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) if it points to
per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info).
Can only happen under these conditions: 1) The DSDT version is 1,
meaning integers are 32-bits. 2) The field is between 33 and 64
bits long.
It applies cleanly back to ACPICA 20100806+ (Linux v2.6.37+).

Commit 9fdca9df (spi: omap2-mcspi: convert to module_platform_driver)
broke the SPI display/panel driver probe on RX-51/N900. The exact cause is
not fully understood, but it seems to be related to the probe order. SPI
communication to the panel driver (spi1.2) fails unless the touchscreen
(spi1.0) has been probed/initialized before. When the omap2-mcspi driver
was converted to a platform driver, it resulted in that the devices are
probed immediately after the board registers them in the order they are
listed in the board file.
Fix the issue by moving the touchscreen before the panel in the SPI
device list.
The invalid guest state emulation loop does not check halt_request
which causes 100% cpu loop while guest is in halt and in invalid
state, but more serious issue is that this leaves halt_request set, so
random instruction emulated by vm86 #GP exit can be interpreted
as halt which causes guest hang. Fix both problems by handling
halt_request in emulation loop.

x86/mm: account for PGDIR_SIZE alignment
Patch for -stable. Function find_early_table_space removed upstream.
Fixes panic in alloc_low_page due to pgt_buf overflow during

find_early_table_space sizes pgt_buf based upon the size of the
memory being mapped, but it does not take into account the alignment
of the memory. When the region being mapped spans a 512GB (PGDIR_SIZE)
alignment, a panic from alloc_low_pages occurs.
kernel_physical_mapping_init takes into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment.
This causes an extra call to alloc_low_page to be made. This extra call

ftrace_dump() had a lot of issues. What ftrace_dump() does, is when
ftrace_dump_on_oops is set (via a kernel parameter or sysctl), it
will dump out the ftrace buffers to the console when either a oops,
panic, or a sysrq-z occurs.
This was written a long time ago when ftrace was fragile to recursion.
But it wasn't written well even for that.
There's a possible deadlock that can occur if a ftrace_dump() is happening
and an NMI triggers another dump. This is because it grabs a lock
before checking if the dump ran.
It also totally disables ftrace, and tracing for no good reasons.
As the ring_buffer now checks if it is read via a oops or NMI, where
there's a chance that the buffer gets corrupted, it will disable
itself. No need to have ftrace_dump() do the same.
ftrace_dump() is now cleaned up where it uses an atomic counter to
make sure only one dump happens at a time. A simple atomic_inc_return()
is enough that is needed for both other CPUs and NMIs. No need for
a spinlock, as if one CPU is running the dump, no other CPU needs
to do it too.
The tracing_on variable is turned off and not turned on. The original
code did this, but it wasn't pretty. By just disabling this variable
we get the result of not seeing traces that happen between crashes.
For sysrq-z, it doesn't get turned on, but the user can always write
a '1' to the tracing_on file. If they are using sysrq-z, then they should

When checking if an autofs mount point is busy it isn't sufficient to
only check if it's a mount point.
For example, if the mount of an offset mountpoint in a tree is denied
for this host by its export and the dentry becomes a process working
directory the check incorrectly returns the mount as not in use at
expire.
This can happen since the default when mounting within a tree is
nostrict, which means ingnore mount fails on mounts within the tree and
continue. The nostrict option is meant to allow mounting in this case.

Device tree node /rtas/ibm,associativity-reference-points would
index into /cpus/PowerPCxxxx/ibm,associativity based on form0 or
form1 encoding detected by ibm,architecture-vec-5 property.
All modern systems use form1 and current kernel code is correct.
However, on older systems with form0 encoding, the numa distance
will get hard coded as LOCAL_DISTANCE for all nodes. This causes
task scheduling anomaly since scheduler will skip building numa
level domain (topmost domain with all cpus) if all numa distances
are same. (value of 'level' in sched_init_numa() will remain 0)

Trying to run an application which was trying to put data into half of

When a full scan 2.4 and 5 GHz scan is scheduled, but then the 2.4 GHz
part of the scan disables a 5.2 GHz channel due to, e.g. receiving
country or frequency information, that 5.2 GHz channel might already
be in the list of channels to scan next. Then, when the driver checks
if it should do a passive scan, that will return false and attempt an
active scan. This is not only wrong but can also lead to the iwlwifi
device firmware crashing since it checks regulatory as well.
Fix this by not setting the channel flags to just disabled but rather
OR'ing in the disabled flag. That way, even if the race happens, the
channel will be scanned passively which is still (mostly) correct.

A server shouldn't normally return NFS4ERR_GRACE if the client holds a
delegation, since no conflicting lock reclaims can be granted, however
the spec does not require the server to grant the open in this
instance
After a server reboot, the reclaimer thread will recover all the existing
locks. For locks that are blocked, however, it will change the value
of block->b_status to nlm_lck_denied_grace_period in order to signal that
they need to wake up and resend the original blocking lock request.
Due to a bug, however, the block->b_status never gets reset after the
blocked locks have been woken up, and so the process goes into an
infinite loop of resends until the blocked lock is satisfied.
Vitaliy reported that a per cpu HPET timer interrupt crashes the
system during hibernation. What happens is that the per cpu HPET timer
gets shut down when the nonboot cpus are stopped. When the nonboot
cpus are onlined again the HPET code sets up the MSI interrupt which
fires before the clock event device is registered. The event handler
is still set to hrtimer_interrupt, which then crashes the machine due
to highres mode not being active.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=700333
There is no real good way to avoid that in the HPET code. The HPET
code alrady has a mechanism to detect spurious interrupts when event
handler == NULL for a similar reason.
We can handle that in the clockevent/tick layer and replace the
previous functional handler with a dummy handler like we do in
tick_setup_new_device().
The original clockevents code did this in clockevents_exchange_device(),
but that got removed by commit 7c1e76897 (clockevents: prevent
clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noop) which forgot to fix
it up in tick_shutdown(). Same issue with the broadcast device.

The effect of the bug is, when opening cgroup.procs, a flex array will

When we change the system time to a low value like this, the value of
timekeeper->offs_real will be a negative value.
It seems that the WARN occurs because an hrtimer has been started in the time
between the releasing of the timekeeper lock and the IPI call (via a call to
on_each_cpu) in clock_was_set() in the do_settimeofday() code. The end result
is that a REALTIME_CLOCK timer has been added with softexpires = expires =
KTIME_MAX. The hrtimer_interrupt() fires/is called and the loop at
kernel/hrtimer.c:1289 is executed. In this loop the code subtracts the
clock base's offset (which was set to timekeeper->offs_real in
do_settimeofday()) from the current hrtimer_cpu_base->expiry value (which
was KTIME_MAX):
KTIME_MAX - (a negative value) = overflow
A simple check for an overflow can resolve this problem. Using KTIME_MAX
instead of the overflow value will result in the hrtimer function being run,
and the reprogramming of the timer after that.

One can trigger an overflow when using ktime_add_ns() on a 32bit
architecture not supporting CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR.
When passing a very high value for u64 nsec, e.g. 7881299347898368000
the do_div() function converts this value to seconds (7881299347) which
is still to high to pass to the ktime_set() function as long. The result
in is a negative value.
The problem on my system occurs in the tick-sched.c,
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() when time_delta is set to
timekeeping_max_deferment(). The check for time_delta < KTIME_MAX is
valid, thus ktime_add_ns() is called with a too large value resulting in
a negative expire value. This leads to an endless loop in the ticker code:
time_delta: 7881299347898368000
expires = ktime_add_ns(last_update, time_delta)
expires: negative value
This fix caps the value to KTIME_MAX.
This error doesn't occurs on 64bit or architectures supporting
CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR (e.g. ARM, x86-32).

Commit 88a8516a2128 (ALSA: usbaudio: implement USB autosuspend)
introduced autopm for all USB audio/MIDI devices. However, many MIDI
devices, such as synthesizers, do not merely transmit MIDI messages but
use their MIDI inputs to control other functions. With autopm, these
devices would get powered down as soon as the last MIDI port device is
closed on the host.
Even some plain MIDI interfaces could get broken: they automatically
send Active Sensing messages while powered up, but as soon as these
messages cease, the receiving device would interpret this as an
accidental disconnection.
Commit f5f165418cab (ALSA: usb-audio: Fix missing autopm for MIDI input)
introduced another regression: some devices (e.g. the Roland GAIA SH-01)
are self-powered but do a reset whenever the USB interface's power state
changes.
To work around all this, just disable autopm for all USB MIDI devices.
There is a kernel memory leak observed when the proc file
/proc/fs/fscache/stats is read.
The reason is that in fscache_stats_open, single_open is called and the
respective release function is not called during release. Hence fix
with correct release function - single_release().
The list of output registers is
: "=r"(ret) : "r"(iha), "r"(pte):"memory");
The constraint "=r" means that the GCC has to maintain that these vars
are in registers and contain valid info when the program flow leaves
the assembly block (output registers).
But "=r" also means that GCC can put them in registers that are used
as input registers. Input registers are iha, pte on the example.
If the predicate p7 is true, the 8th assembly instruction
"(p7) mov %0=r0;"
is the first one which writes to a register which is maintained by the
register constraints; it sets %0. %0 means the first register operand;
it is ret here.
This instruction might overwrite the %2 register (pte) which is needed
by the next instruction:
"(p7) st8 [%2]=r9;;"
Whether it really happens depends on how GCC decides what registers it
uses and how it optimizes the code.
The attached patch fixes the register operand constraints in
arch/ia64/kvm/vtlb.c.
The register constraints should be
: "=&r"(ret) : "r"(iha), "r"(pte):"memory");
The & means that GCC must not use any of the input registers to place

But "=r" also means that GCC can put them in registers that are used

The second assembly instruction
" mov %0=r0 \n"

the first register operand; it is r8 here. (The r0 is read-only and
always 0 on the Itanium; it can be used if an immediate zero value is
needed.)
This instruction might overwrite one of the other registers which are

Whether it really happens depends on how GCC decides what registers it

The objdump utility can give us disassembly.
The futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() function is inline, so we have to
look for a module that uses the funtion. This is the
cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() function in
kernel/futex.c:
static int cmpxchg_futex_value_locked(u32 *curval, u32 __user *uaddr,
u32 uval, u32 newval)
{
int ret;
pagefault_disable();
ret = futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(curval, uaddr, uval, newval);
pagefault_enable();
return ret;
}
Now the disassembly. At first from the Kernel package 3.2.23 which has
been compiled with GCC 4.4, remeber this Kernel seemed to work:
objdump -d linux-3.2.23/debian/build/build_ia64_none_mckinley/kernel/futex.o
The lines
2b0: 0a 00 00 00 22 00 [MMI] mf;;
2b6: 80 00 00 00 42 00 mov r8=r0

2cc: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;;
are the instructions of the assembly block.
The line
2b6: 80 00 00 00 42 00 mov r8=r0
sets the r8 register to 0 and after that
2c0: 0b 00 20 40 2a 04 [MMI] mov.m ar.ccv=r8;;
prepares the 'oldvalue' for the cmpxchg but it takes it from r8. This
is wrong.
What happened here is what I explained above: An input register is
overwritten which is still needed.
The register operand constraints in futex.h are wrong.
(The problem doesn't occur when the Kernel is compiled with GCC 4.6.)
The attached patch fixes the register operand constraints in futex.h.
The code after patching of it:
static inline int
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(u32 *uval, u32 __user *uaddr,
u32 oldval, u32 newval)
{
if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, uaddr, sizeof(u32)))
return -EFAULT;
I also initialized the 'r8' var with the C programming language.
The _asm qualifier on the definition of the 'r8' var forces GCC to use
the r8 processor register for it.
I don't believe that we should use inline assembly for zeroing out a
local variable.
The constraint is
"+r" (r8)
what means that it is both an input register and an output register.
Note that the page fault handler will modify the r8 register which
will be the return value of the function.
The real fix is
"=&r" (prev)
The & means that GCC must not use any of the input registers to place
this output register in.
Patched the Kernel 3.2.23 and compiled it with GCC4.4:
Much better.
There is a
270: 05 40 00 00 00 e1 [MLX] mov r8=r0
which was generated by C code r8 = 0. Below
2b6: 00 10 81 54 08 00 mov.m ar.ccv=r34
what means that oldval is no longer overwritten.

Found problem on system that firmware that could handle pci aer.
Firmware get error reporting after pci injecting error, before os boots.
But after os boots, firmware can not get report anymore, even pci=noaer
is passed.
Root cause: BIOS _OSC has problem with query bit checking.
It turns out that BIOS vendor is copying example code from ACPI Spec.
In ACPI Spec 5.0, page 290:
If (Not(And(CDW1,1))) // Query flag clear?
{ // Disable GPEs for features granted native control.
If (And(CTRL,0x01)) // Hot plug control granted?
{
Store(0,HPCE) // clear the hot plug SCI enable bit
Store(1,HPCS) // clear the hot plug SCI status bit
}
...
}
When Query flag is set, And(CDW1,1) will be 1, Not(1) will return 0xfffffffe.
So it will get into code path that should be for control set only.
BIOS acpi code should be changed to "If (LEqual(And(CDW1,1), 0)))"
Current kernel code is using _OSC query to notify firmware about support
from OS and then use _OSC to set control bits.
During query support, current code is using all possible controls.
So will execute code that should be only for control set stage.
That will have problem when pci=noaer or aer firmware_first is used.
As firmware have that control set for os aer already in query support stage,
but later will not os aer handling.
We should avoid passing all possible controls, just use osc_control_set
instead.
That should workaround BIOS bugs with affected systems on the field
as more bios vendors are copying sample code from ACPI spec.

The TX_FIFO register is 10 bits wide. The lower 8 bits are the data to be
written, while the upper two bits are flags to indicate stop/start.
The driver apparently attempted to optimize write access, by only writing a
byte in those cases where the stop/start bits are zero. However, we have
seen cases where the lower byte is duplicated onto the upper byte by the
hardware, which causes inadvertent stop/starts.
This patch changes the write access to the transmit FIFO to always be 16 bits
wide.

Currently, the depth reported in the stack tracer stack_trace file
does not match the stack_max_size file. This is because the stack_max_size
includes the overhead of stack tracer itself while the depth does not.
The first time a max is triggered, a calculation is not performed that
figures out the overhead of the stack tracer and subtracts it from
the stack_max_size variable. The overhead is stored and is subtracted
from the reported stack size for comparing for a new max.
Now the stack_max_size corresponds to the reported depth:
While testing against and older gcc on x86 that uses mcount instead

When gcc 4.6 on x86 is used, the function tracer will use the new
option -mfentry which does a call to "fentry" at every function
instead of "mcount". The significance of this is that fentry is
called as the first operation of the function instead of the mcount
usage of being called after the stack.
This causes the stack tracer to show some bogus results for the size
of the last function traced, as well as showing "ftrace_call" instead
of the function. This is due to the stack frame not being set up
by the function that is about to be traced.
The 216 size for ftrace_call includes both the ftrace_call stack
(which includes the saving of registers it does), as well as the
stack size of the parent.
To fix this, if CC_USING_FENTRY is defined, then the stack_tracer
will reserve the first item in stack_dump_trace[] array when
calling save_stack_trace(), and it will fill it in with the parent ip.
Then the code will look for the parent pointer on the stack and
give the real size of the parent's stack pointer:
I'm Cc'ing stable, although it's not urgent, as it only shows bogus
size for item #0, the rest of the trace is legit. It should still be
corrected in previous stable releases.

We first tried to avoid updating atime/mtime entirely (commit b0de59b5733d: "TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write"), and then
limited it to only update it occasionally (commit 37b7f3c76595: "TTY:
fix atime/mtime regression"), but it turns out that this was both
insufficient and overkill.
It was insufficient because we let people attach to the shared ptmx node
to see activity without even reading atime/mtime, and it was overkill
because the "only once a minute" means that you can't really tell an
idle person from an active one with 'w'.
So this tries to fix the problem properly. It marks the shared ptmx
node as un-notifiable, and it lowers the "only once a minute" to a few
seconds instead - still long enough that you can't time individual
keystrokes, but short enough that you can tell whether somebody is
active or not.

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /home/konrad/ssd/konrad/linux/mm/slab.c:3179

The solution to that is use kasprintf in the CPU hotplug path
that 'online's the CPU. That is, do it in in xen_hvm_cpu_notify,
and remove the call to in xen_hvm_setup_cpu_clockevents.
Unfortunatly the later is not a good idea as the bootup path
does not use xen_hvm_cpu_notify so we would end up never allocating
timer%d interrupt lines when booting. As such add the check for
atomic() to continue.

In case a machine supports memory hotplug all active memory increments
present at IPL time have been initialized with a "usecount" of 1.
This is wrong if the memory increment size is larger than the memory
section size of the memory hotplug code. If that is the case the
usecount must be initialized with the number of memory sections that
fit into one memory increment.
Otherwise it is possible to put a memory increment into standby state
even if there are still active sections.
Afterwards addressing exceptions might happen which cause the kernel
to panic.
However even worse, if a memory increment was put into standby state
and afterwards into active state again, it's contents would have been
zeroed, leading to memory corruption.
This was only an issue for machines that support standby memory and
have at least 256GB memory.
This is broken since commit fdb1bb15 "[S390] sclp/memory hotplug: fix
initial usecount of increments".
Many cards based on CY7C68300A/B/C use the USB ID 04b4:6830 but only the
B and C variants (EZ-USB AT2LP) support the ATA Command Block
functionality, according to the data sheets. The A variant (EZ-USB AT2)
locks up if ATACB is attempted, until a typical 30 seconds timeout runs
out and a USB reset is performed.

It seems that one way to spot a CY7C68300A (at least where the card
manufacturer left Cypress' EEPROM default vaules, against Cypress'
recommendations) is to look at the USB string descriptor indices.
A http://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data%20Sheets/Cypress%20PDFs/CY7C68300A.pdf
B http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/43456.pdf
C http://www.cypress.com/?rID=14189
Note that a CY7C68300B/C chip appears as CY7C68300A if it is running
in Backward Compatibility Mode, and if ATACB would be supported in this
case there is anyway no way to tell which chip it really is.
For 5 years my external USB drive has been locking up for half a minute
when plugged in and ata_id is run by udev, or anytime hdparm or similar
is run on it.
Finally looking at the /correct/ datasheet I think I found the reason. I
am aware the quirk in this patch is a bit hacky, but the hardware
manufacturers haven't made it easy for us.
When usbfs receives a ctrl-request from userspace it calls check_ctrlrecip,
which for a request with USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT tries to map this to an interface
to see if this interface is claimed, except for ctrl-requests with a type of
USB_TYPE_VENDOR.
When trying to use this device: http://www.akaipro.com/eiepro
redirected to a Windows vm running on qemu on top of Linux.
The windows driver makes a ctrl-req with USB_TYPE_CLASS and
USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT with index 0, and the mapping of the endpoint (0) to
the interface fails since ep 0 is the ctrl endpoint and thus never is
part of an interface.
This patch fixes this ctrl-req failing by skipping the checkintf call for
USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT ctrl-reqs on the ctrl endpoint.

The current ST Micro Connect Lite uses the FT4232H hi-speed quad USB
UART FTDI chip. It is also possible to drive STM reference targets
populated with an on-board JTAG debugger based on the FT2232H chip with
the same STMicroelectronics tools.
For this reason, the ST Micro Connect Lite PIDs should be
ST_STMCLT_2232_PID: 0x3746
ST_STMCLT_4232_PID: 0x3747

In commit 85fe402 (fs: do not assign default i_ino in new_inode), the
initialisation of i_ino was removed from new_inode() and pushed down
into the callers. However spufs_new_inode() was not updated.
This exhibits as no files appearing in /spu, because all our dirents
have a zero inode, which readdir() seems to dislike.

In __after_prom_start we copy the kernel down to zero in two calls to
copy_and_flush. After the first call (copy from 0 to copy_to_here:)
we jump to the newly copied code soon after.
Unfortunately there's no isync between the copy of this code and the
jump to it. Hence it's possible that stale instructions could still be
in the icache or pipeline before we branch to it.
We've seen this on real machines and it's results in no console output
after:
calling quiesce...
returning from prom_init
The below adds an isync to ensure that the copy and flushing has
completed before any branching to the new instructions occurs.

There is no-one that really require atomic64_t support on sparc32.
But several drivers fails to build without proper atomic64 support.
And for an allyesconfig build for sparc32 this is annoying.
Include the generic atomic64_t support for sparc32.
This has a text footprint cost:
$size vmlinux (before atomic64_t support)
text data bss dec hex filename 3578860 134260 108781 3821901 3a514d vmlinux
$size vmlinux (after atomic64_t support)
text data bss dec hex filename 3579892 130684 108781 3819357 3a475d vmlinux
data decreases - but I fail to explain why!
I have rebuild twice to check my numbers.

Commit 4a94445c9a5c (net: Use ip_route_input_noref() in input path)
added a bug in IP defragmentation handling, as non refcounted
dst could escape an RCU protected section.
Commit 64f3b9e203bd068 (net: ip_expire() must revalidate route) fixed
the case of timeouts, but not the general problem.
Tom Parkin noticed crashes in UDP stack and provided a patch,
but further analysis permitted us to pinpoint the root cause.
Before queueing a packet into a frag list, we must drop its dst,
as this dst has limited lifetime (RCU protected)
When/if a packet is finally reassembled, we use the dst of the very
last skb, still protected by RCU and valid, as the dst of the
reassembled packet.
Use same logic in IPv6, as there is no need to hold dst references.

The code in set_orig_addr() does not initialize all of the members of
struct sockaddr_tipc when filling the sockaddr info -- namely the union
is only partly filled. This will make recv_msg() and recv_stream() --
the only users of this function -- leak kernel stack memory as the
msg_name member is a local variable in net/socket.c.
Additionally to that both recv_msg() and recv_stream() fail to update
the msg_namelen member to 0 while otherwise returning with 0, i.e.
"success". This is the case for, e.g., non-blocking sockets. This will
lead to a 128 byte kernel stack leak in net/socket.c.
Fix the first issue by initializing the memory of the union with
memset(0). Fix the second one by setting msg_namelen to 0 early as it
will be updated later if we're going to fill the msg_name member.
