The TPS65910 chip is a power management IC for multimedia and handheld devices. It contains the following components: - Regulators - GPIO controller - RTC The tps65910 core driver is registered as a platform driver and provides communication through I2C with the host device for the different components.

Currently, we call mc13xxx_reg_read and mc13xxx_reg_rmw for the same register. This can be converted to simply a mc13xxx_reg_read and a mc13xxx_reg_write, thus save a redundant register read.

Some systems, particularly physically large systems used for early prototyping, may experience substantial voltage drops between the regulator and the consumers as a result of long traces in the system. With these systems voltages may need to be set higher than requested in order to ensure reliable system operation. Allow systems to work around such hardware issues by allowing constraints to supply an offset to be applied to any requested and reported voltages. This is not ideal, especially since the voltage drop may be load dependant, but is sufficient for most affected systems, it is not expected to be used in production hardware. The offset is applied after all constraint processing so constraints should be specified in terms of consumer values not physically configured values.

In include/linux/mfd/mc13892.h, we define MC13892_VCOINCELL as 23. Thus VCOINCELL should be defined as 23th element in mc13892_regulators array, not the first one. This actually fixes an off-by-one bug while accessing mc13892_regulators array. For example, In mc13892_regulator_probe, we use MC13892_VCAM as array index of mc13892_regulators array. mc13892_regulators[MC13892_VCAM].desc.ops->set_mode = mc13892_vcam_set_mode; Currently, it access mc13892_regulators[12] ,which is VAUDIO not VCAM.

With TWL6030, it is not enough to ensure that the regulator is the group of P1 group (CPU/Linux), but we need to check the state as far as APP is concerned as well. Split the current is_enabled to 6030 and 4030 specific ones.

TWL6030 does not have remap register. The current implementation causes value of remap to be written to state register, accidentally causing the regulators which are probed to be switched on as well. This is wrong as regulators should be controllable based on calls to enable/disable for TWL regulator framework. Further, the values initialized make no sense as well. We hence remove this from the initalizers and also write to remap register only if the TWL is 4030.

Right now security_get_user_sids() will pass in a NULL avd pointer to avc_has_perm_noaudit(), which then forces that function to have a dummy entry for that case and just generally test it. Don't do it. The normal callers all pass a real avd pointer, and this helper function is incredibly hot. So don't make avc_has_perm_noaudit() do conditional stuff that isn't needed for the common case. This also avoids some duplicated stack space.

The first patch adds generic functionnality to w1_io for Resume Command [A5h] lots of slaves support. I found it useful for multi-commands/reset workflows with the same slave on a multi-slave bus. This DS2408 w1 slave driver is not complete for all the features of the chip, but its sufficient if you use it as a simple IO expander. Enjoy! The ds1wm had Kconfig dependencies towards ARM && HAVE_CLK. I took them out since I was using the ds1wm on an x86_64 platform (ds1wm in a FPGA through pcie) and found them irrelevant. The clock freq/divisors at the top of ds1wm.c did not have the MSB set to 1. This bit is CLK_EN which turns the whole prescaler and dividers on. The driver never mentionned this bit either, so I just included this bit right in the table entries. I also took the liberty to add a couple of entries to the table. The spec doesn't explicitely mentions these possibilities but the description and examination of the core shows the prescalers & dividers can be used for more than the table explicitely shows. The table I enlarged still doesn't cover all possibilities, but it's a good start. I also made a few tweaks to a couple of the read and write algorithms which made sense while I had my head very deep in the ds1wm documentation. We stressed it a lot with 10+ slaves on the bus, many ds2408, ds2431 and ds2433 at the same time doing extensive interaction. It proved quite stable in our production environment.

The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices. The code for evaluating GUID partitions (in fs/partitions/efi.c) contains a bug that causes a kernel oops on certain corrupted GUID partition tables. This bug has security impacts, because it allows, for example, to prepare a storage device that crashes a kernel subsystem upon connecting the device (e.g., a "USB Stick of (Partial) Death"). crc = efi_crc32((const unsigned char *) (*gpt), le32_to_cpu((*gpt)->header_size)); computes a CRC32 checksum over gpt covering (*gpt)->header_size bytes. There is no validation of (*gpt)->header_size before the efi_crc32 call. A corrupted partition table may have large values for (*gpt)->header_size. In this case, the CRC32 computation access memory beyond the memory allocated for gpt, which may cause a kernel heap overflow. Validate value of GUID partition table header size.

The balloon driver in a Xen guest frees guest pages and marks them as mmio. When the kernel crashes and the crash kernel attempts to read the oldmem via /proc/vmcore a read from ballooned pages will generate 100% load in dom0 because Xen asks qemu-dm for the page content. Since the reads come in as 8byte requests each ballooned page is tried 512 times. With this change a hook can be registered which checks wether the given pfn is really ram. The hook has to return a value > 0 for ram pages, a value < 0 on error (because the hypercall is not known) and 0 for non-ram pages. This will reduce the time to read /proc/vmcore. Without this change a 512M guest with 128M crashkernel region needs 200 seconds to read it, with this change it takes just 2 seconds.

Currently, pagemap_read() has three error and/or corner case handling mistake. (1) If ppos parameter is wrong, mm refcount will be leak. (2) If count parameter is 0, mm refcount will be leak too. (3) If the current task is sleeping in kmalloc() and the system is out of memory and oom-killer kill the proc associated task, mm_refcount prevent the task free its memory. then system may hang up. <Quote Hugh's explain why we shold call kmalloc() before get_mm()> check_mem_permission gets a reference to the mm. If we __get_free_page after check_mem_permission, imagine what happens if the system is out of memory, and the mm we're looking at is selected for killing by the OOM killer: while we wait in __get_free_page for more memory, no memory is freed from the selected mm because it cannot reach exit_mmap while we hold that reference.
