Documentation/fb/modedb.txt states that video=option should be considered a global option. But video_setup and fb_get_options are not coded that way. Instead its required to boot with video=driver:option to set a given option in drvier. This is cumbersome because it requires to know in advance which driver will be active for a given board/kernel. The following patch implements the documented catchall for the fbdev drivers. It is now possible to boot with video=XxY without the need to know the active driver in advance. The specific case it tries to fix is syslinux in the SUSE installer which offers a menu to set a display resolution. Right now this just appends the vga= option the kernel. But in addition to vga= it should be possible to pass a generic video=XxY for all framebuffer/drm drivers. With this change forcing a certain window size of VM displays is now much easier. Today the video= option is stored in a global fb_mode_option. But unfortunately only drm uses it. Note: this change introduces a small memleak if video=option is actually used because fb_mode_option is const. Most drivers use strsep to get to individual options. This could be fixed in a followup patch which always releases the option string in every caller of fb_get_options.

由 Lothar Waßmann 提交于
Currently the driver re-implements the code found in of_get_videomode() except for the fact that the latter honors the 'native-mode' property to select a spcific video timing from the list of possible timings. The driver builds up a list of all video timings, but uses only the last mode from the list anyway. While building the list it incorrectly OR's the 'pixelclk-active' and 'de-active' flags of all modes into single flags, possibly leading to a wrong pixelclock or data-enable polarity setting. Fix this by using the of_get_videomode() directly with the OF_USE_NATIVE_MODE flag. Since all current dts files only have one entry in their display-timings node, this bug was not apparent and the fix does not change the driver's behaviour for the current users.

There are cases where cpufreq_add_dev() may fail for some CPUs during system resume. With the current code we will still have sysfs cpufreq files for those CPUs and struct cpufreq_policy would be already freed for them. Hence any operation on those sysfs files would result in kernel warnings.

This patch adds a check on the output buffer with access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, ...) to ensure the whole buffer is in userspace memory before using the pointer in uverbs functions. If the buffer or a subset of it is not valid, returns -EFAULT to the caller. This will also catch invalid buffer before the final call to copy_to_user() which happen late in most uverb functions. Just like the check in read(2) syscall, it's a sanity check to detect invalid parameters provided by userspace. This particular check was added in vfs_read() by Linus Torvalds for v2.6.12 with following commit message: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=fd770e66c9a65b14ce114e171266cf6f393df502 Make read/write always do the full "access_ok()" tests. The actual user copy will do them too, but only for the range that ends up being actually copied. That hides bugs when the range has been clamped by file size or other issues. Note: there's no need to check input buffer since vfs_write() already does access_ok(VERIFY_READ, ...) as part of write() syscall.

Commit 7ea6c6c1 ("Move cper.c from drivers/acpi/apei to drivers/firmware/efi") results in CONFIG_EFI being enabled even when the user doesn't want this. Since ACPI APEI used to build fine without UEFI (and as far as I know also has no functional depency on it), at least in that case using a reverse dependency is wrong (and a straight one isn't needed). Whether the same is true for ACPI_EXTLOG I don't know - if there is a functional dependency, it should depend on EFI rather than selecting it. It certainly has (currently) no build dependency. Adjust Kconfig and build logic so that the bad dependency gets avoided.

Linux 3.10 changed the timing of how thread_info->flags is touched: x86: Use generic idle loop (7d1a9417) This caused Intel NHM-EX and WSM-EX servers to experience a large number of immediate MONITOR/MWAIT break wakeups, which caused cpuidle to demote from deep C-states to shallow C-states, which caused these platforms to experience a significant increase in idle power. Note that this issue was already present before the commit above, however, it wasn't seen often enough to be noticed in power measurements. Here we extend an errata workaround from the Core2 EX "Dunnington" to extend to NHM-EX and WSM-EX, to prevent these immediate returns from MWAIT, reducing idle power on these platforms. While only acpi_idle ran on Dunnington, intel_idle may also run on these two newer systems. As of today, there are no other models that are known to need this tweak.

Freezable kthreads and workqueues are fundamentally problematic in that they effectively introduce a big kernel lock widely used in the kernel and have already been the culprit of several deadlock scenarios. This is the latest occurrence. During resume, libata rescans all the ports and revalidates all pre-existing devices. If it determines that a device has gone missing, the device is removed from the system which involves invalidating block device and flushing bdi while holding driver core layer locks. Unfortunately, this can race with the rest of device resume. Because freezable kthreads and workqueues are thawed after device resume is complete and block device removal depends on freezable workqueues and kthreads (e.g. bdi_wq, jbd2) to make progress, this can lead to deadlock - block device removal can't proceed because kthreads are frozen and kthreads can't be thawed because device resume is blocked behind block device removal. 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue") made this particular deadlock scenario more visible but the underlying problem has always been there - the original forker task and jbd2 are freezable too. In fact, this is highly likely just one of many possible deadlock scenarios given that freezer behaves as a big kernel lock and we don't have any debug mechanism around it. I believe the right thing to do is getting rid of freezable kthreads and workqueues. This is something fundamentally broken. For now, implement a funny workaround in libata - just avoid doing block device hot[un]plug while the system is frozen. Kernel engineering at its finest. :( v2: Add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pm_freezing) for cases where libata is built as a module. v3: Comment updated and polling interval changed to 10ms as suggested by Rafael. v4: Add #ifdef CONFIG_FREEZER around the hack as pm_freezing is not defined when FREEZER is not configured thus breaking build.
