STag zero is a special STag that allows consumers to access any bus
address without registering memory.  The nes driver unfortunately
allows STag zero to be used even with QPs created by unprivileged
userspace consumers, which means that any process with direct verbs
access to the nes device can read and write any memory accessible to
the underlying PCI device (usually any memory in the system).  Such
access is usually given for cluster software such as MPI to use, so
this is a local privilege escalation bug on most systems running this
driver.

The driver was using STag zero to receive the last streaming mode
data; to allow STag zero to be disabled for unprivileged QPs, the
driver now registers a special MR for this data.

There was a report of a data corruption
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/14/121.  There is a script included to
reproduce the problem.

During testing, I encountered a number of strange things with ext3, so I
tried ext2 to attempt to reduce complexity of the problem.  I found that
fsstress would quickly hang in wait_on_inode, waiting for I_LOCK to be
cleared, even though instrumentation showed that unlock_new_inode had
already been called for that inode.  This points to memory scribble, or
synchronisation problme.

i_state of I_NEW inodes is not protected by inode_lock because other
processes are not supposed to touch them until I_LOCK (and I_NEW) is
cleared.  Adding WARN_ON(inode->i_state & I_NEW) to sites where we modify
i_state revealed that generic_sync_sb_inodes is picking up new inodes from
the inode lists and passing them to __writeback_single_inode without
waiting for I_NEW.  Subsequently modifying i_state causes corruption.  In
my case it would look like this:

CPU0                            CPU1
unlock_new_inode()              __sync_single_inode()
 reg <- inode->i_state
 reg -> reg & ~(I_LOCK|I_NEW)   reg <- inode->i_state
 reg -> inode->i_state          reg -> reg | I_SYNC
                                reg -> inode->i_state

Non-atomic RMW on CPU1 overwrites CPU0 store and sets I_LOCK|I_NEW again.

Fix for this is rather than wait for I_NEW inodes, just skip over them:
inodes concurrently being created are not subject to data integrity
operations, and should not significantly contribute to dirty memory
either.

After this change, I'm unable to reproduce any of the added warnings or
hangs after ~1hour of running.  Previously, the new warnings would start
immediately and hang would happen in under 5 minutes.

I'm also testing on ext3 now, and so far no problems there either.  I
don't know whether this fixes the problem reported above, but it fixes a
real problem for me.

Currently we disable the Acer WMI backlight device if there is no ACPI
backlight device.  As a result, we end up with no backlight device at all.
 We should instead disable it if there is an ACPI device, as the other
laptop drivers do.  This regression was introduced in febf2d95 ("Acer-WMI:
fingers off backlight if video.ko is serving this functionality").

Each laptop driver with backlight support got a similar change around
febf2d95.  The changes to the other drivers look correct; see e.g.
a598c82f for a similar but correct change.  The regression is also in
2.6.28.

Unfortunately, there will (probably very) soon be a further downgrade from

It is currently impossible to run a user-mode linux machine inside another
user-mode linux (UML on UML).  It breaks after a few instructions.  When
it tries to check whether SYSEMU is installed (the inner) UML receives an
inconsistent result (from the outer UML).

This is the output of a broken attempt:
$ ./linux mem=256m ubd0=cow
Locating the bottom of the address space ... 0x0
Locating the top of the address space ... 0xc0000000
Core dump limits :
        soft - 0
        hard - NONE
Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...OK
Checking ptrace new tags for syscall emulation...unsupported
Checking syscall emulation patch for ptrace...check_sysemu : expected SIGTRAP, got status = 256
$

The problem is the following:

PTRACE_SYSCALL/SINGLESTEP is currently managed inside arch_ptrace for ARCH=um.

PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP is not captured in arch_ptrace's switch,
therefore it is erroneously passed back to ptrace_request (in
kernel/ptrace).

This simple patch simply forces ptrace to return an error on
PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP as it is unsupported on ARCH=um, and fixes
the problem.

Current VR5500 processor support lacks of some functions which are
expected to be configured/synthesized on arch initialization.

Here're some VR5500A spec notes:

* All execution hazards are handled in hardware.

* Once VR5500A stops the operation of the pipeline by WAIT instruction,
  it could return from the standby mode only when either a reset, NMI
  request, or all enabled interrupts is/are detected.  In other words,
  if interrupts are disabled by Status.IE=0, it keeps in standby mode
  even when interrupts are internally asserted.

  Notes on WAIT: The operation of the processor is undefined if WAIT
  insn is in the branch delay slot.  The operation is also undefined
  if WAIT insn is executed when Status.EXL and Status.ERL are set to 1.

* VR5500A core only implements the Load prefetch.

With these changes, it boots fine.

radeonfb and aty128fb have a special hook called by the PowerMac platform
code very very early on resume from sleep to bring the screen back. This
is useful for debugging wakup problems, but unfortunately, this also became
a source of problems of its own.

The hook is called extremely early, with interrupts still off, and the code
path involved with that code nowadays rely on things like taking mutexes,
GFP_KERNEL allocations, etc...

In addition, the driver now relies on the PCI core to restore the standard
config space before calling resume which doesn't happen with this early
code path.

I'm keeping the code in but commented out along with a fixup call to
pci_restore_state(). The reason is that I still want to make it easy to
re-enable temporarily to track wake up problems, and it's possible that
I can revive it at some stage if we make sleeping things save to call
in early resume using a system state.

In the meantime, this should fix several reported regressions.

The hvcs and hvsi backends both set tty->low_latency to one, along
with more or less scary comments regarding bugs or races that would
happen if not doing so.

However, they also both call tty_flip_buffer_push() in conexts where
it's illegal to do so since some recent tty changes (or at least it
may have been illegal always but it nows blows) when low_latency is
set (ie, hard interrupt or with spinlock held and irqs disabled).

This removes the setting for now to get them back to working condition,
we'll have to address the races described in the comments separately
if they are still an issue (some of this might have been fixed already).

Prevent the kernel from being crashed by a divide-by-zero operation when
supplied an incorrectly filled 'struct fb_var_screeninfo' from userland.

Previously i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params) was using the global
'yres' symbol previously defined at i810_main.c:145 as a module parameter
value holder (i810_main.c:2174).  If i810fb is compiled-in or if this
param doesn't get a default value, this direct usage leads to a
divide-by-zero at i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params).  The patch simply
replace the 'yres' global, perhaps undefined symbol usage by a given
parameter structure lookup.

This problem occurs with directfb, mplayer -vo fbdev, SDL library.
It was also reported ( but non solved ) at:
