Some machines (eg. Lenovo Z480) ECs are not stable during boot up
and causes battery driver fails to be loaded due to failure of getting
battery information from EC sometimes. After several retries, the
operation will work. This patch is to retry to get battery information 5
times if the first try fails.

In __ioremap_caller() (the guts of ioremap), we loop over the range of
pfns being remapped and checks each one individually with page_is_ram().
For large ioremaps, this can be very slow. For example, we have a
device with a 256 GiB PCI BAR, and ioremapping this BAR can take 20+
seconds -- sometimes long enough to trigger the soft lockup detector!
Internally, page_is_ram() calls walk_system_ram_range() on a single
page. Instead, we can make a single call to walk_system_ram_range()
from __ioremap_caller(), and do our further checks only for any RAM
pages that we find. For the common case of MMIO, this saves an enormous
amount of work, since the range being ioremapped doesn't intersect
system RAM at all.
With this change, ioremap on our 256 GiB BAR takes less than 1 second.
The modifications include:
1. Kconfig of Score: we don't support ioremap
2. Missed headfile including
3. There are some errors in other people's commit not checked by us, we fix it now
3.1 arch/score/kernel/entry.S: wrong instructions
3.2 arch/score/kernel/process.c : just some typos
When the rtmutex fast path is enabled the slow unlock function can
create the following situation:
spin_lock(foo->m->wait_lock);
foo->m->owner = NULL;
rt_mutex_lock(foo->m); <-- fast path
free = atomic_dec_and_test(foo->refcnt);
rt_mutex_unlock(foo->m); <-- fast path
if (free)
kfree(foo);
spin_unlock(foo->m->wait_lock); <--- Use after free.
Plug the race by changing the slow unlock to the following scheme:
while (!rt_mutex_has_waiters(m)) {
/* Clear the waiters bit in m->owner */
clear_rt_mutex_waiters(m);
owner = rt_mutex_owner(m);
spin_unlock(m->wait_lock);
if (cmpxchg(m->owner, owner, 0) == owner)
return;
spin_lock(m->wait_lock);
}
So in case of a new waiter incoming while the owner tries the slow
path unlock we have two situations:
is sufficient as all access to m->owner is serialized via
m->wait_lock;
Also document and clarify the wakeup_next_waiter function as suggested
by Oleg Nesterov.

Even in the case when deadlock detection is not requested by the
caller, we can detect deadlocks. Right now the code stops the lock
chain walk and keeps the waiter enqueued, even on itself. Silly not to
yell when such a scenario is detected and to keep the waiter enqueued.
Return -EDEADLK unconditionally and handle it at the call sites.
The futex calls return -EDEADLK. The non futex ones dequeue the
waiter, throw a warning and put the task into a schedule loop.
Tagged for stable as it makes the code more robust.

When we walk the lock chain, we drop all locks after each step. So the
lock chain can change under us before we reacquire the locks. That's
harmless in principle as we just follow the wrong lock path. But it
can lead to a false positive in the dead lock detection logic:
T0 holds L0
T0 blocks on L1 held by T1
T1 blocks on L2 held by T2
T2 blocks on L3 held by T3
T4 blocks on L4 held by T4
lock T2 -> lock L0 -> deadlock detected, but it's not a deadlock at all.
Brad tried to work around that in the deadlock detection logic itself,
but the more I looked at it the less I liked it, because it's crystal
ball magic after the fact.
We actually can detect a chain change very simple:
The current deadlock detection logic does not work reliably due to the
following early exit path:
/*
* Drop out, when the task has no waiters. Note,
* top_waiter can be NULL, when we are in the deboosting
* mode!
*/
if (top_waiter && (!task_has_pi_waiters(task) ||
top_waiter != task_top_pi_waiter(task)))
goto out_unlock_pi;
So this not only exits when the task has no waiters, it also exits
unconditionally when the current waiter is not the top priority waiter
of the task.
So in a nested locking scenario, it might abort the lock chain walk
and therefor miss a potential deadlock.
Simple fix: Continue the chain walk, when deadlock detection is
enabled.
We also avoid the whole enqueue, if we detect the deadlock right away
(A-A). It's an optimization, but also prevents that another waiter who
comes in after the detection and before the task has undone the damage
observes the situation and detects the deadlock and returns
-EDEADLOCK, which is wrong as the other task is not in a deadlock
situation.

The per_cpu buffers are created one per possible CPU. But these do
not mean that those CPUs are online, nor do they even exist.
With the addition of the ring buffer polling, it assumes that the
caller polls on an existing buffer. But this is not the case if
the user reads trace_pipe from a CPU that does not exist, and this
causes the kernel to crash.
Simple fix is to check the cpu against buffer bitmask against to see
if the buffer was allocated or not and return -ENODEV if it is
not.
More updates were done to pass the -ENODEV back up to userspace.
When we set the valid bit on invalid GART entries they are
loaded into the TLB when an adjacent entry is loaded. This
poisons the TLB with invalid entries which are sometimes
not correctly removed on TLB flush.
For stable inclusion the patch probably needs to be modified a bit.

The first time that we allocate from an uninitialized inode allocation
bitmap, if the block allocation bitmap is also uninitalized, we need
to get write access to the block group descriptor before we start
modifying the block group descriptor flags and updating the free block
count, etc. Otherwise, there is the potential of a bad journal
checksum (if journal checksums are enabled), and of the file system
becoming inconsistent if we crash at exactly the wrong time.
There's a race condition between the atomic_dec_and_test(&io->count)
in dec_count() and the waking of the sync_io() thread. If the thread
is spuriously woken immediately after the decrement it may exit,
making the on stack io struct invalid, yet the dec_count could still
be using it.
Fix this race by using a completion in sync_io() and dec_count().

On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze
the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset,
resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host.
We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane
state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the
host.
This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency:
$ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency
WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0
WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8
...
WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144

min: 18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1)
max: 0.000 GHz (cpu -1)
avg: 0.000 GHz
The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed
amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine.
The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of
weather it was still running or had been shut down.
By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is
running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running:
This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the
guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has
indicated it was using the PMU. This is okay, however the user of the
PMU needs to ensure that it is in a defined state when it starts using
it.

Upper limit for write operations to temperature limit registers
was clamped to a fractional value. However, limit registers do
not support fractional values. As a result, upper limits of 127.5
degrees C or higher resulted in a rounded limit of 128 degrees C.
Since limit registers are signed, this was stored as -128 degrees C.
Clamp limits to (-55, +127) degrees C to solve the problem.
Value on writes to auto_temp[12]_min and auto_temp[12]_max were not
clamped at all, but masked. As a result, out-of-range writes resulted
in a more or less arbitrary limit. Clamp those attributes to (0, 127)

In my investigation, I found the root cause is wq_numa_possible_cpumask.
All entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask is allocated by
alloc_cpumask_var_node(). And these entries are used without initializing.
So these entries have wrong value.
When hot-adding and onlining CPU, wq_update_unbound_numa() is called.
wq_update_unbound_numa() calls alloc_unbound_pwq(). And alloc_unbound_pwq()
calls get_unbound_pool(). In get_unbound_pool(), worker_pool->node is set
as follow:
3592 /* if cpumask is contained inside a NUMA node, we belong to that node */
3593 if (wq_numa_enabled) {
3594 for_each_node(node) {
3595 if (cpumask_subset(pool->attrs->cpumask,
3596 wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node])) {
3597 pool->node = node;
3598 break;
3599 }
3600 }
3601 }
But wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node] does not have correct cpumask. So, wrong
node is selected. As a result, kernel panic occurs.
By this patch, all entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask are allocated by
zalloc_cpumask_var_node to initialize them. And the panic disappeared.
The cause is that cpuset_mems_allowed() try to take
mutex_lock(&callback_mutex) under the rcu_read_lock(which was hold in
__mpol_dup()). And in cpuset_mems_allowed(), the access to cpuset is
under rcu_read_lock, so in __mpol_dup, we can reduce the rcu_read_lock
protection region to protect the access to cpuset only in
current_cpuset_is_being_rebound(). So that we can avoid this bug.
This patch is a temporary solution that just addresses the bug
mentioned above, can not fix the long-standing issue about cpuset.mems
rebinding on fork():
"When the forker's task_struct is duplicated (which includes
->mems_allowed) and it races with an update to cpuset_being_rebound
in update_tasks_nodemask() then the task's mems_allowed doesn't get
updated. And the child task's mems_allowed can be wrong if the
cpuset's nodemask changes before the child has been added to the
cgroup's tasklist."

There's a race between fork() and hugepage migration, as a result we try

This patch fixes I/O errors with the sym53c8xx_2 driver when the disk
returns QUEUE FULL status.
When the controller encounters an error (including QUEUE FULL or BUSY
status), it aborts all not yet submitted requests in the function
sym_dequeue_from_squeue.
This function aborts them with DID_SOFT_ERROR.
If the disk has full tag queue, the request that caused the overflow is
aborted with QUEUE FULL status (and the scsi midlayer properly retries
it until it is accepted by the disk), but the sym53c8xx_2 driver aborts
the following requests with DID_SOFT_ERROR --- for them, the midlayer
does just a few retries and then signals the error up to sd.
The result is that disk returning QUEUE FULL causes request failures.
The error was reproduced on 53c895 with COMPAQ BD03685A24 disk
(rebranded ST336607LC) with command queue 48 or 64 tags. The disk has
64 tags, but under some access patterns it return QUEUE FULL when there
are less than 64 pending tags. The SCSI specification allows returning
QUEUE FULL anytime and it is up to the host to retry.

Commit c49436b657d0 (serial: 8250_dw: Improve unwritable LCR workaround)
caused a regression. It added a check that the LCR was written properly
to detect and workaround the busy quirk, but the behaviour of bit 5
(UART_LCR_SPAR) differs between IP versions 3.00a and 3.14c per the
docs. On older versions this caused the check to fail and it would
repeatedly force idle and rewrite the LCR register, causing delays and
preventing any input from serial being received.
This is fixed by masking out UART_LCR_SPAR before making the comparison.

When configured with UART_16550_COMPATIBLE=NO or in versions prior to
the introduction of this option, the Designware UART will ignore writes
to the LCR if the UART is busy. The current workaround saves a copy of
the last written LCR and re-writes it in the ISR for a special interrupt
that is raised when a write was ignored.
Unfortunately, interrupts are typically disabled prior to performing a
sequence of register writes that include the LCR so the point at which
the retry occurs is too late. An example is serial8250_do_set_termios()
where an ignored LCR write results in the baud divisor not being set and
instead a garbage character is sent out the transmitter.
Furthermore, since serial_port_out() offers no way to indicate failure,
a serious effort must be made to ensure that the LCR is actually updated
before returning back to the caller. This is difficult, however, as a
UART that was busy during the first attempt is likely to still be busy
when a subsequent attempt is made unless some extra action is taken.
This updated workaround reads back the LCR after each write to confirm
that the new value was accepted by the hardware. Should the hardware
ignore a write, the TX/RX FIFOs are cleared and the receive buffer read
before attempting to rewrite the LCR out of the hope that doing so will
force the UART into an idle state. While this may seem unnecessarily
aggressive, writes to the LCR are used to change the baud rate, parity,
stop bit, or data length so the data that may be lost is likely not
important. Admittedly, this is far from ideal but it seems to be the
best that can be done given the hardware limitations.
Lastly, the revised workaround doesn't touch the LCR in the ISR, so it
avoids the possibility of a "serial8250: too much work for irq" lock up.
This problem is rare in real situations but can be reproduced easily by
wiring up two UARTs and running the following commands.
[ 27.700000] serial8250: too much work for irq96
[ 27.700000] serial8250: too much work for irq96
[ 27.710000] serial8250: too much work for irq96

When a serial port is configured for RTS/CTS flow control, serial core
will disable the transmitter if it observes CTS is de-asserted. This is
perfectly reasonable and appropriate when the UART lacks the ability to
automatically perform CTS flow control.
However, if the UART hardware can manage flow control automatically, it
is important that software not get involved. When the DesignWare UART
enables 16C750 style auto-RTS/CTS it stops generating interrupts for
changes in CTS state so software mostly stays out of the way. However,
it does report the true state of CTS in the MSR so software may notice
it is de-asserted and respond by improperly disabling the transmitter.
Once this happens the transmitter will be blocked forever.
To avoid this situation, we simply lie to the 8250 and serial core by
reporting that CTS is asserted whenever auto-RTS/CTS mode is enabled.

When we write to a degraded array which has a bitmap, we
make sure the relevant bit in the bitmap remains set when
the write completes (so a 're-add' can quickly rebuilt a
temporarily-missing device).
If, immediately after such a write starts, we incorporate a spare,
commence recovery, and skip over the region where the write is
happening (because the 'needs recovery' flag isn't set yet),
then that write will not get to the new device.
Once the recovery finishes the new device will be trusted, but will
have incorrect data, leading to possible corruption.
We cannot set the 'needs recovery' flag when we start the write as we
do not know easily if the write will be "degraded" or not. That
depends on details of the particular raid level and particular write
request.
This patch fixes a corruption issue of long standing and so it
suitable for any -stable kernel. It applied correctly to 3.0 at
least and will minor editing to earlier kernels.

An NFS operation that creates a new symlink includes the symlink data,
which is xdr-encoded as a length followed by the data plus 0 to 3 bytes
of zero-padding as required to reach a 4-byte boundary.
The vfs, on the other hand, wants null-terminated data.
The simple way to handle this would be by copying the data into a newly
allocated buffer with space for the final null.
The current nfsd_symlink code tries to be more clever by skipping that
step in the (likely) case where the byte following the string is already
0.
But that assumes that the byte following the string is ours to look at.
In fact, it might be the first byte of a page that we can't read, or of
some object that another task might modify.
Worse, the NFSv4 code tries to fix the problem by actually writing to
that byte.
In the NFSv2/v3 cases this actually appears to be safe:
- nfs3svc_decode_symlinkargs explicitly null-terminates the data
(after first checking its length and copying it to a new
page).
- NFSv2 limits symlinks to 1k. The buffer holding the rpc
request is always at least a page, and the link data (and
previous fields) have maximum lengths that prevent the request
from reaching the end of a page.
In the NFSv4 case the CREATE op is potentially just one part of a long
compound so can end up on the end of a page if you're unlucky.
The minimal fix here is to copy and null-terminate in the NFSv4 case.
The nfsd_symlink() interface here seems too fragile, though. It should
really either do the copy itself every time or just require a
null-terminated string.

Hole punching code for files with indirect blocks wrongly computed
number of blocks which need to be cleared when traversing the indirect
block tree. That could result in punching more blocks than actually
requested and thus effectively cause a data loss. For example:
Error recovery in ext4_alloc_branch() calls ext4_forget() even for
buffer corresponding to indirect block it did not allocate. This leads
to brelse() being called twice for that buffer (once from ext4_forget()
and once from cleanup in ext4_ind_map_blocks()) leading to buffer use
count misaccounting. Eventually (but often much later because there
are other users of the buffer) we will see messages like:
VFS: brelse: Trying to free free buffer
Another manifestation of this problem is an error:
JBD2 unexpected failure: jbd2_journal_revoke: !buffer_revoked(bh);
inconsistent data on disk
The fix is easy - don't forget buffer we did not allocate. Also add an
explanatory comment because the indexing at ext4_alloc_branch() is
somewhat subtle.

Support for firmware rev 508+ was added years ago, but we never noticed
it reports channel in a different way for G-PHY devices. Instead of
offset from 2400 MHz it simply passes channel id (AKA hw_value).
So far it was (most probably) affecting monitor mode users only, but
the following recent commit made it noticeable for quite everybody:

All devices supported by ina2xx are bidirectional and report the

Tested on an INA219.
allows the fall through to the non-layered write case even if both
parent_overlap and obj_request->img_offset belong to the same RADOS
object. This leads to data corruption, because the area to the left of
parent_overlap ends up unconditionally zero-filled instead of being
populated with parent data. Suppose we want to write 1M to offset 6M
of image bar, which is a clone of foo@snap; object_size is 4M,
parent_overlap is 5M:
rbd_data.<id>.0000000000000001
---------------------|----------------------|------------
| should be copyup'ed | should be zeroed out | write ...
---------------------|----------------------|------------
4M 5M 6M
parent_overlap obj_request->img_offset
4..5M should be copyup'ed from foo, yet it is zero-filled, just like
5..6M is.
Given that the only striping mode kernel client currently supports is
chunking (i.e. stripe_unit == object_size, stripe_count == 1), round
parent_overlap up to the next object boundary for the purposes of the
overlap check.
Each image request contains a reference count, but to date it has
not actually been used. (I think this was just an oversight.) A
recent report involving rbd failing an assertion shed light on why
and where we need to use these reference counts.
Every OSD request associated with an object request uses
rbd_osd_req_callback() as its callback function. That function will
call a helper function (dependent on the type of OSD request) that
will set the object request's "done" flag if the object request if
appropriate. If that "done" flag is set, the object request is
passed to rbd_obj_request_complete().
In rbd_obj_request_complete(), requests are processed in sequential
order. So if an object request completes before one of its
predecessors in the image request, the completion is deferred.
Otherwise, if it's a completing object's "turn" to be completed, it
is passed to rbd_img_obj_end_request(), which records the result of
the operation, accumulates transferred bytes, and so on. Next, the
successor to this request is checked and if it is marked "done",
(deferred) completion processing is performed on that request, and
so on. If the last object request in an image request is completed,
rbd_img_request_complete() is called, which (typically) destroys
the image request.
There is a race here, however. The instant an object request is
marked "done" it can be provided (by a thread handling completion of
one of its predecessor operations) to rbd_img_obj_end_request(),
which (for the last request) can then lead to the image request
getting torn down. And this can happen *before* that object has
itself entered rbd_img_obj_end_request(). As a result, once it
*does* enter that function, the image request (and even the object
request itself) may have been freed and become invalid.
All that's necessary to avoid this is to properly count references
to the image requests. We tear down an image request's object
requests all at once--only when the entire image request has
completed. So there's no need for an image request to count
references for its object requests. However, we don't want an
image request to go away until the last of its object requests
has passed through rbd_img_obj_callback(). In other words,
we don't want rbd_img_request_complete() to necessarily
result in the image request being destroyed, because it may
get called before we've finished processing on all of its
object requests.
So the fix is to add a reference to an image request for
each of its object requests. The reference can be viewed
as representing an object request that has not yet finished
its call to rbd_img_obj_callback(). That is emphasized by
getting the reference right after assigning that as the image
object's callback function. The corresponding release of that
reference is done at the end of rbd_img_obj_callback(), which
every image object request passes through exactly once.
DM thinp already checks whether the discard_granularity of the data
device is a factor of the thin-pool block size. But when using the
dm-thin-pool's discard passdown support, DM thinp was not selecting the
max of the underlying data device's discard_granularity and the
thin-pool's block size.
Update set_discard_limits() to set discard_granularity to the max of
these values. This enables blkdev_issue_discard() to properly align the
discards that are sent to the DM thin device on a full block boundary.
As such each discard will now cover an entire DM thin-pool block and the
block will be reclaimed.
The SMP code expects hdev to be unlocked since e.g. crypto functions
will try to (re)lock it. Therefore, we need to release the lock before
calling into smp.c from mgmt.c. Without this we risk a deadlock whenever
the smp_user_confirm_reply() function is called.
The conn->link_key variable tracks the type of link key in use. It is
set whenever we respond to a link key request as well as when we get a
link key notification event.
These two events do not however always guarantee that encryption is
enabled: getting a link key request and responding to it may only mean
that the remote side has requested authentication but not encryption. On
the other hand, the encrypt change event is a certain guarantee that
encryption is enabled. The real encryption state is already tracked in
the conn->link_mode variable through the HCI_LM_ENCRYPT bit.
This patch fixes a check for encryption in the hci_conn_auth function to
use the proper conn->link_mode value and thereby eliminates the chance
of a false positive result.
From the Bluetooth Core Specification 4.1 page 1958:
"if both devices have set the Authentication_Requirements parameter to
one of the MITM Protection Not Required options, authentication stage 1
shall function as if both devices set their IO capabilities to
DisplayOnly (e.g., Numeric comparison with automatic confirmation on
both devices)"
So far our implementation has done user confirmation for all just-works
cases regardless of the MITM requirements, however following the
specification to the word means that we should not be doing confirmation
when neither side has the MITM flag set.
Commit "drm/vmwgfx: correct fb_fix_screeninfo.line_length", while fixing a

The system suspend flow as following:

2, Try to suspend all devices.
2.1, If pci device is in RPM suspended state, then pci driver will try
to resume it to RPM active state in the prepare stage.
2.2, xhci_resume function calls usb_hcd_resume_root_hub to queue two
workqueue items to resume usb2&usb3 roothub devices.
2.3, Call suspend callbacks of devices.
2.3.1, All suspend callbacks of all hcd's children, including
roothub devices are called.
2.3.2, Finally, hcd_pci_suspend callback is called.
Due to workqueue threads were already frozen in step 1, the workqueue
items can't be scheduled, and the roothub devices can't be resumed in
this flow. The HCD_FLAG_WAKEUP_PENDING flag which is set in
usb_hcd_resume_root_hub won't be cleared. Finally,
hcd_pci_suspend will return -EBUSY, and system suspend fails.
The reason why this issue doesn't show up very often is due to that
choose_wakeup will be called in step 2.3.1. In step 2.3.1, if
udev->do_remote_wakeup is not equal to device_may_wakeup(&udev->dev), then
udev will resume to RPM active for changing the wakeup settings. This
has been a lucky hit which hides this issue.
For some special xHCI controllers which have no USB2 port, then roothub
will not match hub driver due to probe failed. Then its
do_remote_wakeup will be set to zero, and we won't be as lucky.
xhci driver doesn't need to resume roothub devices everytime like in
the above case. It's only needed when there are pending event TRBs.
