At several places we modify EXT3_I(inode)->i_state without holding i_mutex (ext3_release_file, ext3_bmap, ext3_journalled_writepage, ext3_do_update_inode, ...). These modifications are racy and we can lose updates to i_state. So convert handling of i_state to use bitops which are atomic. Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

I have a Delkin Devices compact flash card that isn't being recognized using the SATA/PATA drivers. The card is recognized and works with the deprecated ATA drivers. The error I am seeing is: ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (device reports invalid type, err_mask=0x0) I tracked it down to ata_id_is_cfa() in include/linux/ata.h. The Delkin card has id[0] set to 0x844a and id[83] set to 0. This isn't what the kernel expects and is probably incorrect. The simplest work-around is to add a check for 0x844a to ata_id_is_cfa().

Traditional IDE interface sucks in that it doesn't have a reliable IRQ pending bit, so if the controller raises IRQ while the driver is expecting it not to, the IRQ won't be cleared and eventually the IRQ line will be killed by interrupt subsystem. Some controllers have non-standard mechanism to indicate IRQ pending so that this condition can be detected and worked around. This patch adds an optional operation ->sff_irq_check() which will be called for each port from the ata_sff_interrupt() if an unexpected interrupt is received. If the operation returns %true, ->sff_check_status() and ->sff_irq_clear() will be cleared for the port. Note that this doesn't mark the interrupt as handled so it won't prevent IRQ subsystem from killing the IRQ if this mechanism fails to clear the spurious IRQ. This patch also implements ->sff_irq_check() for ata_piix. Note that this adds slight overhead to shared IRQ operation as IRQs which are destined for other controllers will trigger extra register accesses to check whether IDE interrupt is pending but this solves rare screaming IRQ cases and for some curious reason also helps weird BIOS related glitch on Samsung n130 as reported in bko#14314. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14314 * piix_base_ops dropped as suggested by Sergei. * Spurious IRQ detection doesn't kick in anymore if polling qc is in progress. This provides less protection but some controllers have possible data corruption issues if the wrong register is accessed while a command is in progress.

The alignment requirement for 64-bit load/store instructions on ARM is implementation defined. Some CPUs (such as Marvell Feroceon) do not generate an exception, if such an instruction is executed with an address that is not 64 bit aligned. In such a case, the Feroceon corrupts adjacent memory, which showed up in my tests as a crash in the rx path of ath9k that only occured with CONFIG_XFRM set. This crash happened, because the first field of the mac80211 rx status info in the cb is an u64, and changing it corrupted the skb->sp field. This patch also closes some potential pre-existing holes in the sk_buff struct surrounding the cb[] area.

Split dev_change_flags() into two functions: __dev_change_flags() to perform the actual changes and __dev_notify_flags() to invoke netdevice notifiers. This will be used by rtnl_link to defer netlink notifications until the device has been fully configured. This changes ordering of some operations, in particular: - netlink notifications are sent after all changes have been performed. As a side effect this surpresses one unnecessary netlink message when the IFF_UP and other flags are changed simultaneously. - The NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_DOWN and NETDEV_CHANGE notifiers are invoked after all changes have been performed. Their relative is unchanged. - net_dmaengine_put() is invoked before the NETDEV_DOWN notifier instead of afterwards.

This patch (as1331) adds non-tree ordering constraints needed for proper resume of PCI USB host controllers from hibernation. The main issue is that non-high-speed devices must not be resumed before the high-speed root hub, because it is the ehci_bus_resume() routine which takes care of handing the device connection over to the companion controller. If the device resume is attempted before the handover then the device won't be found and it will be treated as though it had disconnected. The patch adds a new field to the usb_bus structure; for each full/low-speed bus this field will contain a pointer to the companion high-speed bus (if one exists). It is used during normal device resume; if the hs_companion pointer isn't NULL then we wait for the root-hub device on the hs_companion bus. A secondary issue is that an EHCI controlller shouldn't be resumed before any of its companions. On some machines I have observed handovers failing if the companion controller is reinitialized after the handover. Thus, the EHCI resume routine must wait for the companion controllers to be resumed. The patch also fixes a small bug in usb_hcd_pci_probe(); an error path jumps to the wrong label, causing a memory leak.

There are some dependencies between devices (in particular, between EHCI USB controllers and their OHCI/UHCI siblings) which are not reflected by the structure of the device tree. With synchronous suspend and resume these dependencies are taken into accout automatically, because the devices in question are always registered in the right order, but to meet these constraints with asynchronous suspend and resume the drivers of these devices will need to use dpm_wait() in their suspend/resume routines, so introduce a helper function allowing them to do that.

Theoretically, the total time of system sleep transitions (suspend to RAM, hibernation) can be reduced by running suspend and resume callbacks of device drivers in parallel with each other. However, there are dependencies between devices such that we're not allowed to suspend the parent of a device before suspending the device itself. Analogously, we're not allowed to resume a device before resuming its parent. The most straightforward way to take these dependencies into accout is to start the async threads used for suspending and resuming devices at the core level, so that async_schedule() is called for each suspend and resume callback supposed to be executed asynchronously. For this purpose, introduce a new device flag, power.async_suspend, used to mark the devices whose suspend and resume callbacks are to be executed asynchronously (ie. in parallel with the main suspend/resume thread and possibly in parallel with each other) and helper function device_enable_async_suspend() allowing one to set power.async_suspend for given device (power.async_suspend is unset by default for all devices). For each device with the power.async_suspend flag set the PM core will use async_schedule() to execute its suspend and resume callbacks. The async threads started for different devices as a result of calling async_schedule() are synchronized with each other and with the main suspend/resume thread with the help of completions, in the following way: (1) There is a completion, power.completion, for each device object. (2) Each device's completion is reset before calling async_schedule() for the device or, in the case of devices with the power.async_suspend flags unset, before executing the device's suspend and resume callbacks. (3) During suspend, right before running the bus type, device type and device class suspend callbacks for the device, the PM core waits for the completions of all the device's children to be completed. (4) During resume, right before running the bus type, device type and device class resume callbacks for the device, the PM core waits for the completion of the device's parent to be completed. (5) The PM core completes power.completion for each device right after the bus type, device type and device class suspend (or resume) callbacks executed for the device have returned.

In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due to competion between cores. This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed until perf_enable()).

GCC 4.5 introduces behavior that forces the alignment of structures to use the largest possible value. The default value is 32 bytes, so if some structures are defined with a 4-byte alignment and others aren't declared with an alignment constraint at all - it will align at 32-bytes. For things like the ftrace events, this results in a non-standard array. When initializing the ftrace subsystem, we traverse the _ftrace_events section and call the initialization callback for each event. When the structures are misaligned, we could be treating another part of the structure (or the zeroed out space between them) as a function pointer. This patch forces the alignment for all the ftrace_event_call structures to 4 bytes. Without this patch, the kernel fails to boot very early when built with gcc 4.5. It's trivial to check the alignment of the members of the array, so it might be worthwhile to add something to the build system to do that automatically. Unfortunately, that only covers this case. I've asked one of the gcc developers about adding a warning when this condition is seen.
