      aoe: allocate unused request_queue for sysfs · 7135a71b
      Ed Cashin 提交于
      Andy Whitcroft reported an oops in aoe triggered by use of an
      incorrectly initialised request_queue object:
      
        [ 2645.959090] kobject '<NULL>' (ffff880059ca22c0): tried to add

      The request queue of an aoe device is not used but can be allocated in
      code that does not sleep.
      
      Bruno bisected this regression down to
      
        cd43e26f
      
        block: Expose stacked device queues in sysfs
      
      "This seems to generate /sys/block/$device/queue and its contents for
       everyone who is using queues, not just for those queues that have a
       non-NULL queue->request_fn."

      Note that embedding a queue inside another object has always been
      an illegal construct, since the queues are reference counted and
      must persist until the last reference is dropped. So aoe was
      always buggy in this respect (Jens).

      i915: disable interrupts before tearing down GEM state · e6890f6f
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Reinette Chatre reports a frozen system (with blinking keyboard LEDs)
      when switching from graphics mode to the text console, or when
      suspending (which does the same thing). With netconsole, the oops
      turned out to be
      
      	BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000084
      	IP: [<ffffffffa03ecaab>] i915_driver_irq_handler+0x26b/0xd20 [i915]
      
      and it's due to the i915_gem.c code doing drm_irq_uninstall() after
      having done i915_gem_idle(). And the i915_gem_idle() path will do
      
        i915_gem_idle() ->
          i915_gem_cleanup_ringbuffer() ->
            i915_gem_cleanup_hws() ->
              dev_priv->hw_status_page = NULL;
      
      but if an i915 interrupt comes in after this stage, it may want to
      access that hw_status_page, and gets the above NULL pointer dereference.
      
      And since the NULL pointer dereference happens from within an interrupt,
      and with the screen still in graphics mode, the common end result is
      simply a silently hung machine.
      
      Fix it by simply uninstalling the irq handler before idling rather than
      after. Fixes

      38bddf04 gianfar: gfar_remove needs to call unregister_netdev()
      
      breaks the build of the gianfar driver because "dev" is undefined in
      this function. To quickly test rc9 I changed this to priv->ndev but I do
      not know if this is the correct one.

      pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside 'pty_write()' · ac89a917
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The whole write-room thing is something that is up to the _caller_ to
      worry about, not the pty layer itself.  The total buffer space will
      still be limited by the buffering routines themselves, so there is no
      advantage or need in having pty_write() artificially limit the size
      somehow.
      
      And what happened was that the caller (the n_tty line discipline, in
      this case) may have verified that there is room for 2 bytes to be
      written (for NL -> CRNL expansion), and it used to then do those writes
      as two single-byte writes.  And if the first byte written (CR) then
      caused a new tty buffer to be allocated, pty_space() may have returned
      zero when trying to write the second byte (LF), and then incorrectly
      failed the write - leading to a lost newline character.
      
      This should finally fix

      n_tty: do O_ONLCR translation as a single write · 37f81fa1
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as
      two tty_put_char() calls.  Which works, but is stupid, and has caused
      problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic.
      The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example.
      
      Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic
      tty buffering code (in commit d945cb9c:
      "pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic").
      
      So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write
      instead.  That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space
      expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just
      a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test,
      which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering,
      it won't cause weeks of debugging.
