Patch c5c34d48 (tty: flush flip buffer on ldisc input queue flush) introduces a race condition which can lead to memory leaks. The problem can be triggered when tcflush() is called when data are being pushed to the line discipline driver by flush_to_ldisc(). flush_to_ldisc() releases tty->buf.lock when calling the line discipline receive_buf function. At that poing tty_buffer_flush() kicks in and sets both tty->buf.head and tty->buf.tail to NULL. When flush_to_ldisc() finishes, it restores tty->buf.head but doesn't touch tty->buf.tail. This corrups the buffer queue, and the next call to tty_buffer_request_room() will allocate a new buffer and overwrite tty->buf.head. The previous buffer is then lost forever without being released. (Thanks to Laurent for the above text, for finding, disgnosing and reporting the bug) - Use tty->flags bits for the flush status. - Wait for the flag to clear again before returning - Fix the doc error noted - Fix flush of empty queue leaving stale flushpending [akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanup] Signed-off-by: NAlan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Acked-by: NPaul Fulghum <paulkf@microgate.com> Cc: Laurent Pinchart <laurentp@cse-semaphore.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

That's obviously not true since all the keys listed below 'h' will do what they are described to do, not display help.

Long ago I've noticed (but didn't pay much attention) that spi_mpc83xx using PM calculations that differs from what specs describe. I.e. u8 pm = mpc83xx_spi->spibrg / (spi->max_speed_hz * 4); While specs says: "The SPI baud rate generator clock source (either system clock or system clock divided by 16, depending on DIV16 bit) is divided by 4 * ([PM] + 1), a range from 4 to 64.". Thus " - 1" is missing in the spi_mpc83xx's formula. Why nobody noticed that bug? Probably because sysclk usually less then user expects, e.g. you expect 200 MHz, but real clock is 198 MHz, and integer rounding helps when this formula is used. Suppose it's SPI in QE, SYSCLK at 198 MHz, thus SPIBRG at 99MHz, 25 MHz requested. PM = (99MHz / ( 25 MHz * 4 )), PM == 0, output SPICLK will be 24.75 MHz At lower frequencies this bug is more noticeable, though. And this bug shows itself in all its beauty if SYSCLK is equal or a bit more than you expect (200 MHz SYSCLK, 100 MHz SPIBRG): PM = (100MHz / ( 25 MHz * 4 )), PM == 1, output SPICLK will be 12.625 MHz!

This builds upon my previous attempts to resolve some jitter problems seen with the Matrox G450 and G550 -based cards, including odd disparities observed between x86 and Power -based machines in a somewhat less hackish way (removing the hacked ifdefs). Apparently, preference should be given to use the DVI PLL when frequencies permit, the Standard PLL otherwise. The max pixel clock for the panellink interface is extracted from the PInS information on the card and used as a limit to determine which PLL to use. Signed-off-by: NPaul A.

Visualize-EG, Graffiti and A4450A graphics cards on PARISC can be configured in double-buffer and standard mode, but the stifb driver supports standard mode only. This patch detects double-buffered cards more reliable. It is a real bugfix for a very nasty problem for all parisc users which have wrongly configured their graphic card. The problem: The stifb graphics driver will not detect that the card is wrongly configured and then nevertheless just enables the graphics mode, which it shouldn't. In the end, the user will see no further updates / boot messages on the screen. We had documented this problem already on our FAQ (http://parisc-linux.org/faq/index.html#viseg "Why do I get corrupted graphics with my Vis-EG/Graffiti/A4450A card?") but people still run into this problem.

I have had four seperate system lockups attributable to this exact problem in two days of testing. Instead of trying to handle all the weird end cases and wrap, how about changing it to look for exactly what we appear to want. The following patch removes a couple races in setup_APIC_timer. One occurs when the HPET advances the COUNTER past the T0_CMP value between the time the T0_CMP was originally read and when COUNTER is read. This results in a delay waiting for the counter to wrap. The other results from the counter wrapping. This change takes a snapshot of T0_CMP at the beginning of the loop and simply loops until T0_CMP has changed (a tick has happened). <later> I have one small concern about the patch. I am not sure it meets the intent as well as it should. I think we are trying to match APIC timer interrupts up with the hpet counter increment. The event which appears to be disturbing this loop in our test environment is the NMI watchdog. What we believe has been happening with the existing code is the setup_APIC_timer loop has read the CMP value, and the NMI watchdog code fires for the first time. This results in a series of icache miss slowdowns and by the time we get back to things it has wrapped. I think this code is trying to get the CMP as close to the counter value as possible. If that is the intent, maybe we should really be testing against a "window" around the CMP. Something like COUNTER = CMP+/2. It appears COUNTER should get advanced every 89nSec (IIRC). The above seems like an unreasonably small window, but may be necessary. Without documentation, I am not sure of the original intent with this code. In summary, this code fixes my boot hangs, but since I am not certain of the intent of the existing code, I am not certain this has not introduced new bugs or unexpected behaviors.

The dynamic dma kmalloc creation can run into trouble if a GFP_ATOMIC allocation is the first one performed for a certain size of dma kmalloc slab. - Move the adding of the slab to sysfs into a workqueue (sysfs does GFP_KERNEL allocations) - Do not call kmem_cache_destroy() (uses slub_lock) - Only acquire the slub_lock once and--if we cannot wait--do a trylock. This introduces a slight risk of the first kmalloc(x, GFP_DMA|GFP_ATOMIC) for a range of sizes failing due to another process holding the slub_lock. However, we only need to acquire the spinlock once in order to establish each power of two DMA kmalloc cache. The possible conflict is with the slub_lock taken during slab management actions (create / remove slab cache). It is rather typical that a driver will first fill its buffers using GFP_KERNEL allocations which will wait until the slub_lock can be acquired. Drivers will also create its slab caches first outside of an atomic context before starting to use atomic kmalloc from an interrupt context. If there are any failures then they will occur early after boot or when loading of multiple drivers concurrently. Drivers can already accomodate failures of GFP_ATOMIC for other reasons. Retries will then create the slab. Signed-off-by: NChristoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com>

The MAX_PARTIAL checks were supposed to be an optimization. However, slab shrinking is a manually triggered process either through running slabinfo or by the kernel calling kmem_cache_shrink. If one really wants to shrink a slab then all operations should be done regardless of the size of the partial list. This also fixes an issue that could surface if the number of partial slabs was initially above MAX_PARTIAL in kmem_cache_shrink and later drops below MAX_PARTIAL through the elimination of empty slabs on the partial list (rare). In that case a few slabs may be left off the partial list (and only be put back when they are empty). Signed-off-by: NChristoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com>

If a Guest makes hypercall which sets a GDT entry to not present, we currently set any segment registers using that GDT entry to 0. Unfortunately, this is not sufficient: there are other ways of altering GDT entries which will cause a fault. The correct solution to do what Linux does: let them set any GDT value they want and handle the #GP when popping causes a fault. This has the added benefit of making our Switcher slightly more robust in the case of any other bugs which cause it to fault. We kill the Guest if it causes a fault in the Switcher: it's the Guest's responsibility to make sure it's not using segments when it changes them.

lguest uses a host-supplied wallclock-based clocksource when the TSC is not reliable. As this is already in nanoseconds, I naively used a multiplier of 1 and a shift of 0. But update_wall_time() in its infinite wisdom decides to adjust the clock a little (where does it think it's getting a more accurate time from?) It will happily tweak the multiplier... to 0, then -1. So the "fix" is to use a shift of 22 like everyone else, and a multiplier of 1 << 22.
