Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These are fixes collected over the last week, most importnatly two cpufreq reverts fixing regressions introduced in 3.10, an autoseelp fix preventing systems using it from crashing during shutdown and two ACPI scan fixes related to hotplug. Specifics: - Two cpufreq commits from the 3.10 cycle introduced regressions. The first of them was buggy (it did way much more than it needed to do) and the second one attempted to fix an issue introduced by the first one. Fixes from Srivatsa S Bhat revert both. - If autosleep triggers during system shutdown and the shutdown callbacks of some device drivers have been called already, it may crash the system. Fix from Liu Shuo prevents that from happening by making try_to_suspend() check system_state. - The ACPI memory hotplug driver doesn't clear its driver_data on errors which may cause a NULL poiter dereference to happen later. Fix from Toshi Kani. - The ACPI namespace scanning code should not try to attach scan handlers to device objects that have them already, which may confuse things quite a bit, and it should rescan the whole namespace branch starting at the given node after receiving a bus check notify event even if the device at that particular node has been discovered already. Fixes from Rafael J Wysocki. - New ACPI video blacklist entry for a system whose initial backlight setting from the BIOS doesn't make sense. From Lan Tianyu. - Garbage string output avoindance for ACPI PNP from Liu Shuo. - Two Kconfig fixes for issues introduced recently in the s3c24xx cpufreq driver (when moving the driver to drivers/cpufreq) from Paul Bolle. - Trivial comment fix in pm_wakeup.h from Chanwoo Choi" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / video: ignore BIOS initial backlight value for Fujitsu E753 PNP / ACPI: avoid garbage in resource name cpufreq: Revert commit 2f7021a8 to fix CPU hotplug regression cpufreq: s3c24xx: fix "depends on ARM_S3C24XX" in Kconfig cpufreq: s3c24xx: rename CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_S3C24XX_DEBUGFS PM / Sleep: Fix comment typo in pm_wakeup.h PM / Sleep: avoid 'autosleep' in shutdown progress cpufreq: Revert commit a66b2e to fix suspend/resume regression ACPI / memhotplug: Fix a stale pointer in error path ACPI / scan: Always call acpi_bus_scan() for bus check notifications ACPI / scan: Do not try to attach scan handlers to devices having them

Commit 7b6d864b (reboot: arm: change reboot_mode to use enum reboot_mode) changed the way reboot is handled on arm, which has a direct impact on arm64 as we share the reset driver on the VE platform. The obvious fix is to move arm64 to use the same infrastructure.

On arm64, cache maintenance faults appear as data aborts with the CM bit set in the ESR. The WnR bit, usually used to distinguish between faulting loads and stores, always reads as 1 and (slightly confusingly) the instructions are treated as reads by the architecture. This patch fixes our fault handling code to treat cache maintenance faults in the same way as loads.

During the pruning of the device tree octeon_fdt_pip_iface() is called for each PIP interface and every port up to the port count is removed from the device tree. However, the count was set to the return value of cvmx_helper_interface_enumerate() which doesn't actually return the count but just returns zero on success. This effectively removed *all* ports from the tree. Use cvmx_helper_ports_on_interface() instead to fix this. This successfully restores the 3 ports of my ERLite-3 and fixes the "kernel assigns random MAC addresses" issue.

Make KVM_GUEST depend on BROKEN_ON_SMP so that it cannot be enabled with SMP. SMP kernels use ll/sc instructions for an atomic section in the tlb fill handler, with a tlbp instruction contained in the middle. This cannot be emulated with trap & emulate KVM because the tlbp instruction traps and the eret to return to the guest code clears the LLbit which makes the sc instruction always fail.

Commit 4df715aa ["MIPS: BMIPS: support booting from physical CPU other than 0"] introduced a thinko which will prevents slave CPUs from being released from reset on systems where we boot from TP0. The problem is that we are checking whether the slave CPU logical CPU map is 0, which is never true for systems booting from TP0, so we do not release the slave TP from reset and we are just stuck. Fix this by properly checking that the CPU we intend to boot really is the physical slave CPU (logical and physical value being 1).

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "A couple interesting SKB fragment handling fixes, plus the usual small bits here and there: 1) Fix 64-bit divide build failure on 32-bit platforms in mlx5, from Tim Gardner. 2) Get rid of a stupid reimplementation on "%*phC" in our sysfs MAC address printing helper. 3) Fix NETIF_F_SG capability advertisement in hyperv driver, if the device can't do checksumming offloads then it shouldn't say it can do SG either. From Haiyang Zhang. 4) bgmac needs to depend on PHYLIB, from Hauke Mehrtens. 5) Don't leak DMA mappings on mapping failures, from Neil Horman. 6) We need to reset the transport header of SKBs in ipv4 before we attempt to perform early socket demux, just like ipv6 does. From Eric Dumazet. 7) Add missing locking on vxlan device removal, from Stephen Hemminger. 8) xen-netfront has to make two passes over an SKB to prepare it for transfer. One pass calculates the number of slots needed, the second massages the SKB and fills the slots. Unfortunately, the first pass doesn't calculate the number of slots properly so we can end up trying to build a MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 SKB which doesn't work out so well. Fix from Jan Beulich with help and discussion with several others. 9) Fix a similar problem in tun and macvtap, which have to split up scatter-gather elements at PAGE_SIZE boundaries. Don't do zerocopy if it would result in a > MAX_SKB_FRAGS skb. Fixes from Jason Wang. 10) On receive, once we've decoded the VLAN state completely, clear skb->vlan_tci. Otherwise demuxed tunnels underneath can trigger the VLAN code again, corrupting the packet.

In commit 48cc32d3 ("vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols") Florian made sure we set pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST if the vlan id is set and we could find a vlan device for this particular id. But we also have a problem if prio bits are set. Steinar reported an issue on a router receiving IPv6 frames with a vlan tag of 4000 (id 0, prio 2), and tunneled into a sit device, because skb->vlan_tci is set. Forwarded frame is completely corrupted : We can see (8100:4000) being inserted in the middle of IPv6 source address : 16:48:00.780413 IP6 2001:16d8:8100:4000:ee1c:0:9d9:bc87 > 9f94:4d95:2001:67c:29f4::: ICMP6, unknown icmp6 type (0), length 64 0x0000: 0000 0029 8000 c7c3 7103 0001 a0ae e651 0x0010: 0000 0000 ccce 0b00 0000 0000 1011 1213 0x0020: 1415 1617 1819 1a1b 1c1d 1e1f 2021 2223 0x0030: 2425 2627 2829 2a2b 2c2d 2e2f 3031 3233 It seems we are not really ready to properly cope with this right now. We can probably do better in future kernels : vlan_get_ingress_priority() should be a netdev property instead of a per vlan_dev one. For stable kernels, lets clear vlan_tci to fix the bugs.

We try to linearize part of the skb when the number of iov is greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is not enough since each single vector may occupy more than one pages, so zerocopy_sg_fromiovec() may still fail and may break the guest network. Solve this problem by calculate the pages needed for iov before trying to do zerocopy and switch to use copy instead of zerocopy if it needs more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is done through introducing a new helper to count the pages for iov, and call uarg->callback() manually when switching from zerocopy to copy to notify vhost. We can do further optimization on top. This bug were introduced from b92946e2 (macvtap: zerocopy: validate vectors before building skb). Cc: Michael S.

Paolo Valente authored
QFQ+ inherits from QFQ a design choice that may cause a high packet delay/jitter and a severe short-term unfairness. As QFQ, QFQ+ uses a special quantity, the system virtual time, to track the service provided by the ideal system it approximates. When a packet is dequeued, this quantity must be incremented by the size of the packet, divided by the sum of the weights of the aggregates waiting to be served. Tracking this sum correctly is a non-trivial task, because, to preserve tight service guarantees, the decrement of this sum must be delayed in a special way [1]: this sum can be decremented only after that its value would decrease also in the ideal system approximated by QFQ+. For efficiency, QFQ+ keeps track only of the 'instantaneous' weight sum, increased and decreased immediately as the weight of an aggregate changes, and as an aggregate is created or destroyed (which, in its turn, happens as a consequence of some class being created/destroyed/changed). However, to avoid the problems caused to service guarantees by these immediate decreases, QFQ+ increments the system virtual time using the maximum value allowed for the weight sum, 2^10, in place of the dynamic, instantaneous value. The instantaneous value of the weight sum is used only to check whether a request of weight increase or a class creation can be satisfied. Unfortunately, the problems caused by this choice are worse than the temporary degradation of the service guarantees that may occur, when a class is changed or destroyed, if the instantaneous value of the weight sum was used to update the system virtual time. In fact, the fraction of the link bandwidth guaranteed by QFQ+ to each aggregate is equal to the ratio between the weight of the aggregate and the sum of the weights of the competing aggregates. The packet delay guaranteed to the aggregate is instead inversely proportional to the guaranteed bandwidth. By using the maximum possible value, and not the actual value of the weight sum, QFQ+ provides each aggregate with the worst possible service guarantees, and not with service guarantees related to the actual set of competing aggregates. To see the consequences of this fact, consider the following simple example. Suppose that only the following aggregates are backlogged, i.e., that only the classes in the following aggregates have packets to transmit: one aggregate with weight 10, say A, and ten aggregates with weight 1, say B1, B2, ..., B10. In particular, suppose that these aggregates are always backlogged. Given the weight distribution, the smoothest and fairest service order would be: A B1 A B2 A B3 A B4 A B5 A B6 A B7 A B8 A B9 A B10 A B1 A B2 ... QFQ+ would provide exactly this optimal service if it used the actual value for the weight sum instead of the maximum possible value, i.e., 11 instead of 2^10. In contrast, since QFQ+ uses the latter value, it serves aggregates as follows (easy to prove and to reproduce experimentally): A B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9 B10 A A A A A A A A A A B1 B2 ... B10 A A ... By replacing 10 with N in the above example, and by increasing N, one can increase at will the maximum packet delay and the jitter experienced by the classes in aggregate A. This patch addresses this issue by just using the above 'instantaneous' value of the weight sum, instead of the maximum possible value, when updating the system virtual time. After the instantaneous weight sum is decreased, QFQ+ may deviate from the ideal service for a time interval in the order of the time to serve one maximum-size packet for each backlogged class. The worst-case extent of the deviation exhibited by QFQ+ during this time interval [1] is basically the same as of the deviation described above (but, without this patch, QFQ+ suffers from such a deviation all the time). Finally, this patch modifies the comment to the function qfq_slot_insert, to make it coherent with the fact that the weight sum used by QFQ+ can now be lower than the maximum possible value. [1] P.

Merge tag 'driver-core-3.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core Pull driver core patches from Greg KH: "Here are some driver core patches for 3.11-rc2. They aren't really bugfixes, but a bunch of new helper macros for drivers to properly create attribute groups, which drivers and subsystems need to fix up a ton of race issues with incorrectly creating sysfs files (binary and normal) after userspace has been told that the device is present. Also here is the ability to create binary files as attribute groups, to solve that race condition, which was impossible to do before this, so that's my fault the drivers were broken. The majority of the .c changes is indenting and moving code around a bit. It affects no existing code, but allows the large backlog of 70+ patches that I already have created to start flowing into the different subtrees, instead of having to live in my driver-core tree, causing merge nightmares in linux-next for the next few months.

The BIOS of FUjitsu E753 reports an incorrect initial backlight value for WIN8 compatible OS, causing backlight to be dark during startup. This change causes the incorrect initial value from BIOS to be ignored.

Pull phase two of __cpuinit removal from Paul Gortmaker: "With the __cpuinit infrastructure removed earlier, this group of commits only removes the function/data tagging that was done with the various (now no-op) __cpuinit related prefixes. Now that the dust has settled with yesterday's v3.11-rc1, there hopefully shouldn't be any new users leaking back in tree, but I think we can leave the harmless no-op stubs there for a release as a courtesy to those who still have out of tree stuff and weren't paying attention. Although the commits are against the recent tag to allow for minor context refreshes for things like yesterday's v3.11-rc1~ slab content, the patches have been largely unchanged for weeks, aside from such trivial updates. For detail junkies, the largely boring and mostly irrelevant history of the patches can be viewed at: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/paulg/cpuinit-delete.git If nothing else, I guess it does at least demonstrate the level of involvement required to shepherd such a treewide change to completion.

The kdump mmap patch series (git commit 83086978) changed the requirements for copy_oldmem_page(). Now this function is used for copying to virtual memory. So implement vmalloc support for the s390 version of copy_oldmem_page(). Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The kdump mmap patch series (git commit 83086978) directly map the PT_LOADs to memory. On s390 this does not work because the copy_from_oldmem() function swaps [0,crashkernel size] with [crashkernel base, crashkernel base+crashkernel size]. The swap int copy_from_oldmem() was done in order correctly implement /dev/oldmem.
