      microblaze: fix interrupt state restore · 58424a49
      Steven J. Magnani 提交于
      Interrupts must be disabled while an interrupt state restore
      (prep for interrupt return) is in progress.
      Code to do this was lost in the port to the mainline kernel.

      pktcdvd: removing device does not remove its sysfs dir · ca0bf64d
      Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 提交于
      This is the counterpart to cba76717
      ("pktcdvd: remove broken dev_t export of class devices").  Device is not
      registered using dev_t, so it should not be destroyed using device_destroy
      which looks up the device by dev_t.  This will fail and adding the device
      again will fail with the "duplicate name" error.  This is fixed using
      device_unregister instead of device_destroy.

      imxfb: correct location of callbacks in suspend and resume · 1ec56203

      The original imxfb_info *fbi backlight_power was NULL but in imxfb_suspend
      it was 4 resulting in an oops as imxfb_suspend calls
      imxfb_disable_controller(fbi) which in turn has

      In cgroup_create(), if alloc_css_id() returns failure, the errno is not

      then 65534 cgroups.  (The number of cgroups is limited to 65535 if a
      subsystem has use_id == 1)
      
       # mount -t cgroup -o blkio xxx /mnt
       # for ((i = 0; i < 65534; i++)); do mkdir /mnt/$i; done

      This NaN is from:

        DB<2> p $func_offset
      0x175
      
      There is already a "0x" in $func_offset, another 0x makes it a NaN.
      
      The $func_offset is from line:
      
      	if ($line =~ /RIP: 0010:\[\<[0-9a-f]+\>\]  \[\<[0-9a-f]+\>\] ([a-zA-Z0-9\_]+)\+(0x[0-9a-f]+)\/0x[a-f0-9]/) {

      mm: flush dcache before writing into page to avoid alias · 931e80e4
      anfei zhou 提交于
      The cache alias problem will happen if the changes of user shared mapping
      is not flushed before copying, then user and kernel mapping may be mapped
      into two different cache line, it is impossible to guarantee the coherence
      after iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic.  So the right steps should be:
      
      	flush_dcache_page(page);
      	kmap_atomic(page);
      	write to page;
      	kunmap_atomic(page);
      	flush_dcache_page(page);
      
      More precisely, we might create two new APIs flush_dcache_user_page and
      flush_dcache_kern_page to replace the two flush_dcache_page accordingly.
      
      Here is a snippet tested on omap2430 with VIPT cache, and I think it is
      not ARM-specific:
      
      	int val = 0x11111111;
      	fd = open("abc", O_RDWR);
      	addr = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
      	*(addr+0) = 0x44444444;
      	tmp = *(addr+0);
      	*(addr+1) = 0x77777777;
      	write(fd, &val, sizeof(int));
      	close(fd);
      
      The results are not always 0x11111111 0x77777777 at the beginning as expected.  Sometimes we see 0x44444444 0x77777777.

      idr: fix a critical misallocation bug · 859ddf09
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Eric Paris located a bug in idr.  With IDR_BITS of 6, it grows to three
      layers when id 4096 is first allocated.  When that happens, idr wraps
      incorrectly and searches the idr array ignoring the high bits.  The
      following test code from Eric demonstrates the bug nicely.
      
      #include <linux/idr.h>
      #include <linux/kernel.h>
      #include <linux/module.h>
      
      static DEFINE_IDR(test_idr);
      
      int init_module(void)
      {
      	int ret, forty95, forty96;
      	void *addr;
      
      	/* add 2 entries both with 4095 as the start address */
      again1:
      	if (!idr_pre_get(&test_idr, GFP_KERNEL))
      		return -ENOMEM;
      	ret = idr_get_new_above(&test_idr, (void *)4095, 4095, &forty95);
      	if (ret) {
      		if (ret == -EAGAIN)
      			goto again1;
      		return ret;
      	}
      	if (forty95 != 4095)
      		printk(KERN_ERR "hmmm, forty95=%d\n", forty95);
      
      again2:

      	/* try to find the 2 entries, noticing that 4096 broke */
      	addr = idr_find(&test_idr, forty95);

      	addr = idr_find(&test_idr, 0);
      	if ((int)addr)
      		printk(KERN_ERR "found an entry at id=0 for addr=%d\n", (int)addr);
      
      	idr_remove(&test_idr, forty95);

      This happens because when sub_alloc() back tracks it doesn't always do it
      step-by-step while the over-the-limit detection assumes step-by-step
      backtracking.  The logic in sub_alloc() looks like the following.
      
        restart:
          clear pa[top level + 1] for end cond detection
          l = top level
          while (true) {
      	search for empty slot at this level
      	if (not found) {
      	    push id to the next possible value
      	    l++
      A:	    if (pa[l] is clear)
      	        failed, return asking caller to grow the tree
      	    if (going up 1 level gives more slots to search)
      	        continue the while loop above with the incremented l
      	    else
      C:	        goto restart
      	}
      	adjust id accordingly to the found slot
      	if (l == 0)
      	    return found id;
      	create lower level if not there yet
      	record pa[l] and l--
          }
      
      Test A is the fail exit condition but this assumes that failure is
      propagated upwared one level at a time but the B optimization path breaks
      the assumption and restarts the whole thing with a start value which is
      above the possible limit with the current layers.  sub_alloc() assumes the
      start id value is inside the limit when called and test A is the only exit
      condition check, so it ends up searching for empty slot while ignoring
      high set bit.
      
      So, for 4095->4096 test, level0 search fails but pa[1] contains a valid
      pointer.  However, going up 1 level wouldn't give any more empty slot so
      it takes C and when the whole thing restarts nobody notices the high bit
      set beyond the top level.
      
      This patch fixes the bug by changing the fail exit condition check to full
      id limit check.

      Getting it is not used, let's drop support for notifications about
      (un)registered events from connector.
      Another option was to check credentials on receiving, but we can always
      restore it without bugs if needed, but genetlink has a wider code base
      and none complained, that userspace can not get notification when some
      other clients were (un)registered.

      mm: purge fragmented percpu vmap blocks · 02b709df
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Improve handling of fragmented per-CPU vmaps.  We previously don't free
      up per-CPU maps until all its addresses have been used and freed.  So
      fragmented blocks could fill up vmalloc space even if they actually had
      no active vmap regions within them.
      
      Add some logic to allow all CPUs to have these blocks purged in the case
      of failure to allocate a new vm area, and also put some logic to trim
      such blocks of a current CPU if we hit them in the allocation path (so
      as to avoid a large build up of them).
      
      Christoph reported some vmap allocation failures when using the per CPU
      vmap APIs in XFS, which cannot be reproduced after this patch and the
      previous bug fix.

      mm: percpu-vmap fix RCU list walking · de560423
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      RCU list walking of the per-cpu vmap cache was broken.  It did not use
      RCU primitives, and also the union of free_list and rcu_head is
      obviously wrong (because free_list is indeed the list we are RCU
      walking).
      
      While we are there, remove a couple of unused fields from an earlier
      iteration.
      
      These APIs aren't actually used anywhere, because of problems with the
      XFS conversion.  Christoph has now verified that the problems are solved
      with these patches.  Also it is an exported interface, so I think it
      will be good to be merged now (and Christoph wants to get the XFS
      changes into their local tree).

      Fix 'flush_old_exec()/setup_new_exec()' split · 7ab02af4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Commit 221af7f8 ("Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions") split
      the function at the point of no return - ie right where there were no
      more error cases to check.  That made sense from a technical standpoint,
      but when we then also combined it with the actual personality setting
      going in between flush_old_exec() and setup_new_exec(), it needs to be a
      bit more careful.
      
      In particular, we need to make sure that we really flush the old
      personality bits in the 'flush' stage, rather than later in the 'setup'
      stage, since otherwise we might be flushing the _new_ personality state
      that we're just setting up.
      
      So this moves the flags and personality flushing (and 'flush_thread()',
      which is the arch-specific function that generally resets lazy FP state
      etc) of the old process into flush_old_exec(), so that it doesn't affect
      any state that execve() is setting up for the new process environment.
      
      This was reported by Michal Simek as breaking his Microblaze qemu

      cfq-iosched: Do not idle on async queues · 1efe8fe1
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      Few weeks back, Shaohua Li had posted similar patch. I am reposting it
      with more test results.
      
      This patch does two things.
      
      - Do not idle on async queues.
      
      - It also changes the write queue depth CFQ drives (cfq_may_dispatch()).
        Currently, we seem to driving queue depth of 1 always for WRITES. This is
        true even if there is only one write queue in the system and all the logic
        of infinite queue depth in case of single busy queue as well as slowly
        increasing queue depth based on last delayed sync request does not seem to
        be kicking in at all.
      
      This patch will allow deeper WRITE queue depths (subjected to the other
      WRITE queue depth contstraints like cfq_quantum and last delayed sync
      request).
      
      Shaohua Li had reported getting more out of his SSD. For me, I have got
      one Lun exported from an HP EVA and when pure buffered writes are on, I
      can get more out of the system. Following are test results of pure
      buffered writes (with end_fsync=1) with vanilla and patched kernel. These
      results are average of 3 sets of run with increasing number of threads.

      I also ran buffered writes along with some sequential reads and some
      buffered reads going on in the system on a SATA disk because the potential
      risk could be that we should not be driving queue depth higher in presence
      of sync IO going to keep the max clat low.
      
      With some random and sequential reads going on in the system on one SATA
      disk I did not see any significant increase in max clat. So it looks like
      other WRITE queue depth control logic is doing its job. Here are the
      results.

      MIPS: 64-bit: Detect virtual memory size · 91dfc423
      Guenter Roeck 提交于
      Linux kernel 2.6.32 and later allocate address space from the top of the
      kernel virtual memory address space.
      
      This patch implements virtual memory size detection for 64 bit MIPS CPUs
      to avoid resulting crashes.
