radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set() or radix_tree_tag_clear(). The problem is that the double tag_get() in radix_tree_tag_get(): if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset)) saw_unset_tag = 1; if (height == 1) { int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset); may see the value change due to the action of set/clear. RCU is no protection against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly. The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any functions reading the tree". The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the tag doesn't vary over time: BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag); This has been seen happening in FS-Cache: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held, and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from running concurrently with it.

As suggested by Linus, fix up kmem_ptr_validate() to handle non-kernel pointers more graciously. The patch changes kmem_ptr_validate() to use the newly introduced kern_ptr_validate() helper to check that a pointer is a valid kernel pointer before we attempt to convert it into a 'struct page'.

When CFQ dispatches requests forcefully due to a barrier or changing iosched, it runs through all cfqq's dispatching requests and then expires each queue. However, it does not activate a cfqq before flushing its IOs resulting in using stale values for computing slice_used. This patch fixes it by calling activate queue before flushing reuqests from each queue. This is useful mostly for barrier requests because when the iosched is changing it really doesnt matter if we have incorrect accounting since we're going to break down all structures anyway. We also now expire the current timeslice before moving on with the dispatch to accurately account slice used for that cfqq.

This value interacts with some registers we don't currently know how to program properly ourselves. The default of 5 that we were using matches what the VBIOS on early DP cards do, but later ones use 6, which would cause nouveau to program an incorrect mode on these chips.

All indications seem to be that the version 0x30 table should be handled the same way as 0x40 (as used on G80), at least for the parts that we currently try use. This commit cleans up the parsing to make it clearer about what we're actually trying to achieve, and unifies the 0x30/0x40 parsing. Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>

* 'upstream-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/libata-dev: libata: Fix accesses at LBA28 boundary (old bug, but nasty) (v2)
-
Mark Lord authored
Most drives from Seagate, Hitachi, and possibly other brands, do not allow LBA28 access to sector number 0x0fffffff (2^28 - 1). So instead use LBA48 for such accesses. This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has taken care to align partitions to 4KB boundaries. On misaligned systems, it is less likely to be encountered, since a 4KB read would end at 0x10000000 rather than at 0x0fffffff.

I don't claim to understand the tty layer, but it seems like hvc_open and hvc_close should be balanced in their kref reference counting. Right now we get a kref every call to hvc_open: if (hp->count++ > 0) { tty_kref_get(tty); <----- here spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hp->lock, flags); hvc_kick(); return 0; } /* else count == 0 */ tty->driver_data = hp; hp->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); <------ or here if hp->count was 0 But hvc_close has: tty_kref_get(tty); if (--hp->count == 0) { ... /* Put the ref obtained in hvc_open() */ tty_kref_put(tty); ... } tty_kref_put(tty); Since the outside kref get/put balance we only do a single kref_put when count reaches 0. The patch below changes things to call tty_kref_put once for every hvc_close call, and with that my machine boots fine.

The get_buf() API sets the second arg to the number of bytes *written* by the other side; in this case it should be zero as these are output buffers. lguest gets this right (obviously kvm's console doesn't), resulting in continual buildup of console writes.
