This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS) after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS measurement to crash when running on CPU0. The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0, the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.

This patch adds .name member on snd_soc_component_driver. But this patch doesn't care about whether cmpnt_drv was NULL, and/or its name was NULL in snd_soc_register_component() at this point. Because, it is easy to switch over to snd_soc_register_component() from snd_soc_register_dais() if it doesn't care cmpnt_drv was NULL.

The current version of hlist_entry_safe() fetches the pointer twice, once to test for NULL and the other to compute the offset back to the enclosing structure. This is OK for normal lock-based use because in that case, the pointer cannot change. However, when the pointer is protected by RCU (as in "rcu_dereference(p)"), then the pointer can change at any time. This use case can result in the following sequence of events: 1. CPU 0 invokes hlist_entry_safe(), fetches the RCU-protected pointer as sees that it is non-NULL. 2. CPU 1 invokes hlist_del_rcu(), deleting the entry that CPU 0 just fetched a pointer to. Because this is the last entry in the list, the pointer fetched by CPU 0 is now NULL. 3. CPU 0 refetches the pointer, obtains NULL, and then gets a NULL-pointer crash. This commit therefore applies gcc's "({ })" statement expression to create a temporary variable so that the specified pointer is fetched only once, avoiding the above sequence of events. Please note that it is the caller's responsibility to use rcu_dereference() as needed. This allows RCU-protected uses to work correctly without imposing any additional overhead on the non-RCU case.

In the UAPI header files, __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN must be compared against __BYTE_ORDER in preprocessor conditionals where these are exposed to userspace (that is they're not inside __KERNEL__ conditionals). However, in the main kernel the norm is to check for "defined(__XXX_ENDIAN)" rather than comparing against __BYTE_ORDER and this has incorrectly leaked into the userspace headers. The definition of struct mdp_superblock_s in linux/raid/md_p.h is wrong in this way. Note that userspace will likely interpret the ordering of the fields incorrectly as the big-endian variant on a little-endian machines - depending on header inclusion order. [!!!] NOTE [!!!] This patch may adversely change the userspace API.

The git commit d5aaffa9 (cpufreq: handle cpufreq being disabled for all exported function) tightens the cpufreq API by returning errors when disable_cpufreq() had been called. The problem we are hitting is that the module xen-acpi-processor which uses the ACPI's functions: acpi_processor_register_performance, acpi_processor_preregister_performance, and acpi_processor_notify_smm fails at acpi_processor_register_performance with -22. Note that earlier during bootup in arch/x86/xen/setup.c there is also an call to cpufreq's API: disable_cpufreq(). This is b/c we want the Linux kernel to parse the ACPI data, but leave the cpufreq decisions to the hypervisor. In v3.9 all the checks that d5aaffa9 added are now hit and the calls to cpufreq_register_notifier will now fail. This means that acpi_processor_ppc_init ends up printing: "Warning: Processor Platform Limit not supported" and the acpi_processor_ppc_status is not set. The repercussions of that is that the call to acpi_processor_register_performance fails right away at: if (!(acpi_processor_ppc_status & PPC_REGISTERED)) and we don't progress any further on parsing and extracting the _P* objects. The only reason the Xen code called that function was b/c it was exported and the only way to gather the P-states. But we can also just make acpi_processor_get_performance_info be exported and not use acpi_processor_register_performance. This patch does so. Acked-by: NRafael J.

USB uses the .find_bridge() callback from struct acpi_bus_type incorrectly, because as a result of the way it is used by USB every device in the system that doesn't have a bus type or parent is passed to usb_acpi_find_device() for inspection. What USB actually needs, though, is to call usb_acpi_find_device() for USB ports that don't have a bus type defined, but have usb_port_device_type as their device type, as well as for USB devices. To fix that replace the struct bus_type pointer in struct acpi_bus_type used for matching devices to specific subsystems with a .match() callback to be used for this purpose and update the users of struct acpi_bus_type, including USB, accordingly. Define the .match() callback routine for USB, usb_acpi_bus_match(), in such a way that it will cover both USB devices and USB ports and remove the now redundant .find_bridge() callback pointer from usb_acpi_bus.

Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

The ptrace interface for metag provides access to some core register sets using the PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET operations. The details of the internal context structures is abstracted into user API structures to both ease use and allow flexibility to change the internal context layouts. Copyin and copyout functions for these register sets are exposed to allow signal handling code to use them to copy to and from the signal context. struct user_gp_regs (NT_PRSTATUS) provides access to the core general purpose register context. struct user_cb_regs (NT_METAG_CBUF) provides access to the TXCATCH* registers which contains information abuot a memory fault, unaligned access error or watchpoint. This can be modified to alter the way the fault is replayed on resume ("catch replay"), or to prevent the replay taking place. struct user_rp_state (NT_METAG_RPIPE) provides access to the state of the Meta read pipeline which can be used to hide memory latencies in hand optimised data loops. Extended DSP register state, DSP RAM, and hardware breakpoint registers aren't yet exposed through ptrace.

Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy. and make fall back path working. 2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat. a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64. b. for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++) set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE) still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat. it should be moved before that.... c. it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved early before override from INITRD is settled. 3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title, but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should be routed via tip/x86/mm. 4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram: a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed? b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable... c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G anymore. d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore. e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is not good. If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that node. We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not be fixed. So just remove that offending commit and related ones including: f7210e6c ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().") 01a178a9 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from SRAT") 27168d38 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to the end of node") e8d19552 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is ready") fb06bc8e ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map") 42f47e27 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority") 6981ec31 ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep movable limit for nodes") 34b71f1e ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter") 4d59a751 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node") Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0.

If CONFIG_IIO_TRIGGER is defined but CONFIG_IIO_BUFFER is not, the following build error is seen. drivers/iio/common/st_sensors/st_sensors_trigger.c:21:5: error: redefinition of ‘st_sensors_allocate_trigger’ In file included from drivers/iio/common/st_sensors/st_sensors_trigger.c:18:0: include/linux/iio/common/st_sensors.h:239:19: note: previous definition of ‘st_sensors_allocate_trigger’ was here drivers/iio/common/st_sensors/st_sensors_trigger.c:65:6: error: redefinition of ‘st_sensors_deallocate_trigger’ In file included from drivers/iio/common/st_sensors/st_sensors_trigger.c:18:0: include/linux/iio/common/st_sensors.h:244:20: note: previous definition of ‘st_sensors_deallocate_trigger’ was here This occurs because st_sensors_deallocate_trigger is built if CONFIG_IIO_TRIGGER is defined, but the dummy function is compiled if CONFIG_IIO_BUFFER is defined.

Add a num_write_bios function to struct target. If an instance of a target sets this, it will be queried before the target's mapping function is called on a write bio, and the response controls the number of copies of the write bio that the target will receive. This provides a convenient way for a target to send the same data to more than one device. The new cache target uses this in writethrough mode, to send the data both to the cache and the backing device. Signed-off-by: NAlasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

This patch allows the administrator to reduce the rate at which kcopyd issues I/O. Each module that uses kcopyd acquires a throttle parameter that can be set in /sys/module/*/parameters. We maintain a history of kcopyd usage by each module in the variables io_period and total_period in struct dm_kcopyd_throttle. The actual kcopyd activity is calculated as a percentage of time equal to "(100 * io_period / total_period)". This is compared with the user-defined throttle percentage threshold and if it is exceeded, we sleep.

This patch introduces enhanced message support that allows the device-mapper core to recognise messages that are common to all devices, and for messages to return data to userspace. Core messages are processed by the function "message_for_md". If the device mapper doesn't support the message, it is passed to the target driver. If the message returns data, the kernel sets the flag DM_MESSAGE_OUT_FLAG. Signed-off-by: NMikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAlasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

Device-mapper ioctls receive and send data in a buffer supplied by userspace. The buffer has two parts. The first part contains a 'struct dm_ioctl' and has a fixed size. The second part depends on the ioctl and has a variable size. This patch recognises the specific ioctls that do not use the variable part of the buffer and skips allocating memory for it. In particular, when a device is suspended and a resume ioctl is sent, this now avoid memory allocation completely. The variable "struct dm_ioctl tmp" is moved from the function copy_params to its caller ctl_ioctl and renamed to param_kernel. It is used directly when the ioctl function doesn't need any arguments.

Avoid returning a truncated table or status string instead of setting the DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG when the last target of a table fills the buffer. When processing a table or status request, the function retrieve_status calls ti->type->status. If ti->type->status returns non-zero, retrieve_status assumes that the buffer overflowed and sets DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG. However, targets don't return non-zero values from their status method on overflow. Most targets returns always zero. If a buffer overflow happens in a target that is not the last in the table, it gets noticed during the next iteration of the loop in retrieve_status; but if a buffer overflow happens in the last target, it goes unnoticed and erroneously truncated data is returned. In the current code, the targets behave in the following way: * dm-crypt returns -ENOMEM if there is not enough space to store the key, but it returns 0 on all other overflows. * dm-thin returns errors from the status method if a disk error happened. This is incorrect because retrieve_status doesn't check the error code, it assumes that all non-zero values mean buffer overflow. * all the other targets always return 0. This patch changes the ti->type->status function to return void (because most targets don't use the return code). Overflow is detected in retrieve_status: if the status method fills up the remaining space completely, it is assumed that buffer overflow happened.
