The userspace part of UML uses the asm-offsets.h generator mechanism to
create definitions for UM_KERN_<LEVEL> that match the in-kernel
KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions.

As of commit 04d2c8c8 ("printk: convert
the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"), KERN_<LEVEL> is no
longer expanded to the literal '"<LEVEL>"', but to '"\001" "LEVEL"', i.e.
it contains two parts.

However, the combo of DEFINE_STR() in
arch/x86/um/shared/sysdep/kernel-offsets.h and sed-y in Kbuild doesn't
support string literals consisting of multiple parts. Hence for all
UM_KERN_<LEVEL> definitions, only the SOH character is retained in the actual
definition, while the remainder ends up in the comment. E.g. in
include/generated/asm-offsets.h we get

    #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" /* "6" KERN_INFO */

instead of

    #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" "6" /* KERN_INFO */

This causes spurious '^A' output in some kernel messages:

    Calibrating delay loop... 4640.76 BogoMIPS (lpj=23203840)
    pid_max: default: 32768 minimum: 301
    Mount-cache hash table entries: 256
    ^AChecking that host ptys support output SIGIO...Yes
    ^AChecking that host ptys support SIGIO on close...No, enabling workaround
    ^AUsing 2.6 host AIO
    NET: Registered protocol family 16
    bio: create slab <bio-0> at 0
    Switching to clocksource itimer

To fix this:
  - Move the mapping from UM_KERN_<LEVEL> to KERN_<LEVEL> from
    arch/um/include/shared/common-offsets.h to
    arch/um/include/shared/user.h, which is preincluded for all userspace
    parts,
  - Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h for all userspace parts, to
    obtain the in-kernel KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions. This doesn't
    violate the kernel/userspace separation, as include/linux/kern_levels.h
    is self-contained and doesn't expose any other kernel internals.
  - Remove the now unused STR() and DEFINE_STR() macros.

Commit d97b46a6 ("syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscall" ) added a new
syscall to support checkpoint restore. It is currently x86-only, but
that restriction will be removed in a subsequent patch. Unfortunately,
the kernel checksyscalls script had a bug which suppressed any warning
to other architectures that the kcmp syscall was not implemented. A
patch to checksyscalls is being tested in linux-next and other
architectures are seeing warnings about kcmp being unimplemented.

This patch adds __NR_kcmp to <asm-generic/unistd.h> so that kcmp is
wired in for architectures using the generic syscall list.

Pull more networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Eric Dumazet discovered and fixed what turned out to be a family of
    bugs.  These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need
    to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not
    expecting this possibility.  The callers have cached pointers to the
    packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to
    continue using pskb_may_pull().

    So they could end up reading garbage.

    It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use
    skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify
    the linear SKB data area.

 2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can
    call down into the TCP keepalive code.  The case basically involves
    creating a raw socket with sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP, then calling
    setsockopt(sock_fd, SO_KEEPALIVE, ...)

    Fixed by Eric Dumazet.

 3) Bluetooth devices do not get configured properly while being powered
    on, resulting in always using legacy pairing instead of SSP.  Fix
    from Andrzej Kaczmarek.

 4) Bluetooth cancels delayed work erroneously, put stricter checks in
    place.  From Andrei Emeltchenko.

11) Fix handling of KSZ8021 PHYs, it's matched currently by KS8051 but

Commit 1ad75b9e ("c/r: prctl: add minimal address test to

When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative
values for the number of observed events.

This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a
result number of events is set to big *positive* number.  From that
moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g.  in division by
zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits.

This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's
3.6.0-rc6 based kernel.

Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period().  That makes
us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly)
thinking there are no events to age.  That makes aging somewhat
inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

The KSZ8021 PHY was previously caught by KS8051, which is not correct.
This PHY needs additional setup if it is strapped for address 0. In such
case an reserved bit must be written in the 0x16, "Operation Mode Strap
Override" register. According to the KS8051 datasheet, that bit means
"PHY Address 0 in non-broadcast" and it indeed behaves as such on KSZ8021.
The issue where the ethernet controller (Freescale FEC) did not communicate

The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory
and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper
NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they
run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will
need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more
NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those
patches are not yet present.

In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which
also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says:

"we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not
by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA).

This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but
will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of
the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see.

This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where
this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class)

We have this dump then:

Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in edac_unregister_sysfs() on
system boot introduced in 3.6-rc1.

Since commit 7a623c03 ("edac: rewrite the sysfs code to use struct
device") edac_mc_alloc() no longer initializes embedded kobjects in
struct mem_ctl_info.  Therefore edac_mc_free() can no longer simply
decrement a kobject reference count to free the allocated memory unless
the memory controller driver module had also called edac_mc_add_mc().

Now edac_mc_free() will check if the newly embedded struct device has
been registered with sysfs before using either the standard device
release functions or freeing the data structures itself with logic
pulled out of the error path of edac_mc_alloc().

   431                  kfree(mci->csrows);
   432          }

and that code block seem to mess things up in several ways (double free, memory
leak, out-of-bound reads etc.):

L422: The iterator "chn" and bound "tot_channels" are totally wrong. Should be
      "row" and "tot_csrows" respectively. Which means either memory leak, or
      out-of-bound reads (which if does not trigger an immediate page fault
      error, will further lead to kfree() on random addresses).

L425: The inner loop is reusing the same iterator "chn" as the outer loop,
      which could lead to premature end of the outer loop, and hence memory leak.

L429: The array index 'i' in mci->csrows[i] is a temporary value used in
      previous loops, and won't change at all in the current loop. Which
      means either out-of-bound read and possibly kfree(random number), or the
      same mci->csrows[i] get freed once and again, and possibly double free
      for the kfree(csr) in L427.

L426/L427: a kfree(csr->channels) is needed in between to avoid leaking the memory.

The buggy code was introduced by commit de3910eb ("edac: change the mem
allocation scheme to make Documentation/kobject.txt happy") in the 3.6-rc1
merge window. Fix it by freeing up resources in this order:

  free csrows[i]->channels[j]
  free csrows[i]->channels
  free csrows[i]
  free csrows

If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected
and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this
neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one.

However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the
neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected
neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the
link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from
instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected
router.

This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to
permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups.

This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this
symmetry check.
