The BT_CONFIG command that is sent to the device during
startup will enable BT coex unless the module parameter
turns it off, but on devices without Bluetooth this may
cause problems, as reported in Redhat BZ 885407.
Fix this by sending the BT_CONFIG command only when the
device has Bluetooth.

usbnet doesn't support yet SG, so drivers should not advertise SG or TSO
capabilities, as they allow TCP stack to build large TSO packets that
need to be linearized and might use order-5 pages.
This adds an extra copy overhead and possible allocation failures.
Current code ignore skb_linearize() return code so crashes are even
possible.
Best is to not pretend SG/TSO is supported, and add this again when/if
usbnet really supports SG for devices who could get a performance gain.

Recently we added an early quirk to detect 5500/5520 chipsets
with early revisions that had problems with irq draining with
interrupt remapping enabled:
unshare_userns(new_cred) does *new_cred = prepare_creds() before
create_user_ns() which can fail. However, the caller expects that
it doesn't need to take care of new_cred if unshare_userns() fails.
We could change the single caller, sys_unshare(), but I think it
would be more clean to avoid the side effects on failure, so with
this patch unshare_userns() does put_cred() itself and initializes
*new_cred only if create_user_ns() succeeeds.
I got 1. It should be 0, the reason is copy_workqueue_attrs() called
in apply_workqueue_attrs() doesn't copy no_numa field.
Fix it by making copy_workqueue_attrs() copy ->no_numa too. This
would also make get_unbound_pool() set a pool's ->no_numa attribute
according to the workqueue attributes used when the pool was created.
While harmelss, as ->no_numa isn't a pool attribute, this is a bit
confusing. Clear it explicitly.
The find_next_bit_left function is broken if used with an offset which
is not a multiple of 64. The shift to mask the bits of a 64-bit word

Several users reported this crash of NULL pointer or general protection,
the story is that we add a rbtree for speedup ulist iteration, and we
use krealloc() to address ulist growth, and krealloc() use memcpy to copy
old data to new memory area, so it's OK for an array as it doesn't use
pointers while it's not OK for a rbtree as it uses pointers.
So krealloc() will mess up our rbtree and it ends up with crash.

In blkif_queue_request blkfront iterates over the scatterlist in order
to set the segments of the request, and in blkif_completion blkfront
iterates over the raw request, which makes it hard to know the exact
position of the source and destination memory positions.
This can be solved by allocating a scatterlist for each request, that
will be keep until the request is finished, allowing us to copy the
data back to the original memory without having to iterate over the
raw request.

- The bus has space for all desired MMIO resources, including optional
space for SR-IOV devices
- We attempt to allocate I/O port space, but it fails because the bus
has no I/O space
- Because of the I/O allocation failure, we retry MMIO allocation,
requesting only the required space, without the optional SR-IOV space
This means we don't allocate the optional SR-IOV space, even though we
could.
This is related to 0c5be0cb0e ("PCI: Retry on IORESOURCE_IO type
allocations").
This patch changes how we handle allocation failures. We will now retry
allocation of only the resource type that failed. If MMIO allocation
fails, we'll retry only MMIO allocation. If I/O port allocation fails,
we'll retry only I/O port allocation.
Hot-removing a device with SR-IOV enabled causes a null pointer dereference
in v3.9 and v3.10.
This is a regression caused by ba518e3c17 ("PCI: pciehp: Iterate over all
devices in slot, not functions 0-7"). When we iterate over the
bus->devices list, we first remove the PF, which also removes all the VFs
from the list. Then the list iterator blows up because more than just the
current entry was removed from the list.
ac205b7bb7 ("PCI: make sriov work with hotplug remove") works around a
similar problem in pci_stop_bus_devices() by iterating over the list in
reverse, so the VFs are stopped and removed from the list first, before the
PF.
This patch changes pciehp_unconfigure_device() to iterate over the list in
reverse, too.
Revert commit 69a37bea (cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for
repeat mode), because it has been identified as the source of a
significant performance regression in v3.8 and later as explained by
Jeremy Eder:
We believe we've identified a particular commit to the cpuidle code
that seems to be impacting performance of variety of workloads.
The simplest way to reproduce is using netperf TCP_RR test, so
we're using that, on a pair of Sandy Bridge based servers. We also
have data from a large database setup where performance is also
measurably/positively impacted, though that test data isn't easily
share-able.
Included below are test results from 3 test kernels:
kernel reverts
-----------------------------------------------------------
1) vanilla upstream (no reverts)
The below data are histograms representing the %c0 residency @
1-second sample rates (using turbostat), while under netperf test.
- If you look at the first 4 histograms, you can see %c0 residency
almost entirely in the 30,40% bin.
- The last pair, which reverts 69a37beabf1f0a6705c08e879bdd5d82ff6486c4,
shows %c0 in the 80,90,100% bins.
Below each kernel name are netperf TCP_RR trans/s numbers for the
particular kernel that can be disclosed publicly, comparing the 3
test kernels. We ran a 4th test with the vanilla kernel where
we've also set /dev/cpu_dma_latency=0 to show overall impact
boosting single-threaded TCP_RR performance over 11% above
baseline.
These results demonstrate gaining back the tendency of the CPU to
stay in more responsive, performant C-states (and thus yield
measurably better performance), by reverting commit 69a37beabf1f0a6705c08e879bdd5d82ff6486c4.

Since cpufreq_cpu_put() called by __cpufreq_remove_dev() drops the
driver module refcount, __cpufreq_remove_dev() causes that refcount
to become negative for the cpufreq driver after a suspend/resume
cycle.
This is not the only bad thing that happens there, however, because
kobject_put() should only be called for the policy kobject at this
point if the CPU is not the last one for that policy.
Namely, if the given CPU is the last one for that policy, the
policy kobject's refcount should be 1 at this point, as set by
cpufreq_add_dev_interface(), and only needs to be dropped once for
the kobject to go away. This actually happens under the cpu == 1
check, so it need not be done before by cpufreq_cpu_put().
On the other hand, if the given CPU is not the last one for that
policy, this means that cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() has been called
at least once for that policy and cpufreq_cpu_get() has been
called for it too. To balance that cpufreq_cpu_get(), we need to
call cpufreq_cpu_put() in that case.
Thus, to fix the described problem and keep the reference
counters balanced in both cases, move the cpufreq_cpu_get() call
in __cpufreq_remove_dev() to the code path executed only for
CPUs that share the policy with other CPUs.

The _BIX method returns extended battery info as a package.
According the ACPI spec (ACPI 5, Section 10.2.2.2), the first member
of that package should be "Revision". However, the current ACPI
battery driver treats the first member as "Power Unit" which should
be the second member. This causes the result of _BIX return data

Fix this by adding a new member called 'revision' to struct
acpi_battery and adding the offsetof() information on it to
extended_info_offsets[] as the first row.

Note also that reordering operations i.e. first call to

removed check for deleting MONITOR and AP_VLAN when suspend. That can
cause a crash (i.e. in iwlagn_mac_remove_interface()) since we remove
interface in the driver that we did not add before.
As reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60514,
the station loop never initialises 'sinfo' and therefore adds up
a stack values, leaking stack information (the number of times it
adds values is easily obtained another way.)
Fix this by initialising the sinfo for each station to add.

The duplicate retransmission detection code in mac80211
erroneously attempts to do the check for every frame,
even frames that don't have a sequence control field or
that don't use it (QoS-Null frames.)
This is problematic because it causes the code to access
data beyond the end of the SKB and depending on the data
there will drop packets erroneously.
Correct the code to not do duplicate detection for such
frames.
I found this error while testing AP powersave, it lead
to retransmitted PS-Poll frames being dropped entirely
as the data beyond the end of the SKB was always zero.

Currently ath9k_htc will reboot firmware only if interface was
ever started. Which lead to the problem in case where interface
was never started but module need to be reloaded.
This patch will partially fix bug "ath9k_htc: Target is unresponsive"
https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/issues/1
Reproduction case:
- plug adapter
- make sure nothing will touch it. Stop Networkmanager or blacklist mac address of this adapter.
- rmmod ath9k_htc; sleep 1; modprobe ath9k_htc

Currently we configure harwdare and clock, only after
interface start. In this case, if we reload module or
reboot PC without configuring adapter, firmware will freeze.
There is no software way to reset adpter.
This patch add initial configuration and set it in
disabled state, to avoid this freeze. Behaviour of this patch
should be similar to: ifconfig wlan0 up; ifconfig wlan0 down.

Due to a firmware bug, it crashes when the beacon interval
is smaller than 16. Avoid this by refusing the station state
change creating the AP station, causing mac80211 to abandon
the attempt to connect to the AP, and eventually wpa_s to
blacklist it.

Allocate a descriptor for each period of a cyclic transfer, not just the first.
Also since the callback needs to be called for each finished period make sure to
initialize the callback and callback_param fields of each descriptor in a cyclic
transfer.
Without this patch the driver waits ~1 ms for the UART to become idle. At
115200n8 this time is (theoretically) enough to transfer 11.5 characters
(= 115200 bits/s / (10 Bits/char) * 1ms). As the mxs-auart has a fifo size
of 16 characters the clock is gated too early. The problem is worse for
lower baud rates.
This only happens to really shut down the transmitter in the middle of a
transfer if /dev/ttyAPPx isn't opened in userspace (e.g. by a getty) but
was at least once (because the bootloader doesn't disable the transmitter).
So increase the timeout to 20 ms which should be enough for 9600n8, too.
Moreover skip gating the clock if the timeout is elapsed.
The handler needs to ack the pending events before actually handling them.
Otherwise a new event might come in after it it considered non-pending or
handled and is acked then without being handled. So this event is only
noticed when the next interrupt happens.
Without this patch an i.MX28 based machine running an rt-patched kernel
regularly hangs during boot.

A fixup for Apple Mac Mini was lost during the adaption to the generic
parser because the fallback for the generic ID 8384:7680 was dropped,
and it resulted in the silence output (and maybe other problems).
Unfortunately, just adding the missing subsystem ID wasn't enough, in
this case. The subsystem ID of this machine is 0000:0100 (what Apple
thought...?), and since snd_hda_pick_fixup() doesn't take the vendor
id zero into account, the driver ignored this entry. Now it's fixed
to regard the vendor id zero as a valid value.
We can't use dev->mod_index for selecting the interrupt routing entry,
because it's not an index into interrupt routing table. It will be even
wrong on a machine with 2 CPUs (4 cores). But all needed information is
contained in the PAT entries for the serial ports. mod[0] contains the
iosapic address and mod_info has some indications for the interrupt
input (at least it looks like it). This patch implements the searching
for the right iosapic and uses this interrupt input information.
The parisc architecture does not have a pte special bit. As a result,
special mappings are handled with the VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP flags.
VM_MIXEDMAP mappings may or may not have a "struct page" backing. When
pfn_valid() is false, there is no "struct page" backing. Otherwise, they
are treated as normal pages.
The FireGL driver uses the VM_MIXEDMAP without a backing "struct page".
This treatment caused a panic due to a TLB data miss in
update_mmu_cache. This appeared to be in the code generated for
page_address(). We were in fact using a very circular bit of code to
determine the physical address of the PFN in various cache routines.
This wasn't valid when there was no "struct page" backing. The needed
address can in fact be determined simply from the PFN itself without
using the "struct page".
The attached patch updates update_mmu_cache(), flush_cache_mm(),
flush_cache_range() and flush_cache_page() to check pfn_valid() and to
directly compute the PFN physical and virtual addresses.

The system doesn't more fail to bind the memory, and hence not falling
back to the PCI mode (if other failures aren't detected).

When an associativity level change is found for one thread, the
siblings threads need to be updated as well. This is done today
for PRRN in stage_topology_update() but is missing for VPHN in
update_cpu_associativity_changes_mask(). This patch will correctly
update all thread siblings during a topology change.
Without this patch a topology update can result in a CPU in
init_sched_groups_power() getting stuck indefinitely in a loop.
This loop is built in build_sched_groups(). As a result of the thread
moving to a node separate from its siblings the struct sched_group will
have its next pointer set to point to itself rather than the sched_group
struct of the next thread. This happens because we have a domain without
the SD_OVERLAP flag, which is correct, and a topology that doesn't conform
with reality (threads on the same core assigned to different numa nodes).
When this list is traversed by init_sched_groups_power() it will reach
the thread's sched_group structure and loop indefinitely; the cpu will
be stuck at this point.
The bug was exposed when VPHN was enabled in commit b7abef0 (v3.9).

a.out support on ARM requires that argc, argv and envp are passed in
r0-r2 respectively, which requires hacking load_aout_binary to
prevent argc being clobbered by the return code. Whilst mainline kernels
do set the registers up in start_thread, the aout loader has never
carried the hack in mainline.
Initialising the registers in this way actually goes against the libc
expectations for ELF binaries, where argc, argv and envp are passed on
the stack, with r0 being used to hold a pointer to an exit function for
cleaning up after the dynamic linker if required. If the pointer is
NULL, then it is ignored. When execing an ELF binary, Linux currently
zeroes r0, then sets it to argc and then finally clobbers it with the
return value of the execve syscall, so we actually end up with:
libc treats r1 and r2 as undefined. The clobbering of r0 by sys_execve
works for user-spawned threads, but when executing an ELF binary from a
kernel thread (via call_usermodehelper), the execve is performed on the
ret_from_fork path, which restores r0 from the saved pt_regs, resulting
in argc being presented to the C library. This has horrible consequences
when the application exits, since we have an exit function registered
using argc, resulting in a jump to hyperspace.
This patch solves the problem by removing the partial a.out support from
arch/arm/ altogether.

As of commit b9d4d42ad9 (ARM: Remove __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW on
pre-ARMv6 CPUs), the mm switching on VIVT processors is done in the
finish_arch_post_lock_switch() function to avoid whole cache flushing
with interrupts disabled. The need for deferred mm switch is stored as a
thread flag (TIF_SWITCH_MM). However, with preemption enabled, we can
have another thread switch before finish_arch_post_lock_switch(). If the
new thread has the same mm as the previous 'next' thread, the scheduler
will not call switch_mm() and the TIF_SWITCH_MM flag won't be set for
the new thread.
This patch moves the switch pending flag to the mm_context_t structure
since this is specific to the mm rather than thread.
