commit 8b8132bc upstream. When the USB core finishes reseting a USB device, the xHCI driver sends a Reset Device command to the host. The xHC then updates its internal representation of the USB device to the 'Default' device state. If the device was already in the Default state, the xHC will complete the command with an error status. If a device needs to be reset several times during enumeration, the second reset will always fail because of the xHCI Reset Device command. This can cause issues during enumeration. For example, usb_reset_and_verify_device calls into hub_port_init in a loop. Say that on the first call into hub_port_init, the device is successfully reset, but doesn't respond to several set address control transfers. Then the port will be disabled, but the udev will remain in tact. usb_reset_and_verify_device will call into hub_port_init again. On the second call into hub_port_init, the device will be reset, and the xHCI driver will issue a Reset Device command. This command will fail (because the device is already in the Default state), and usb_reset_and_verify_device will fail. The port will be disabled, and the device won't be able to enumerate. Fix this by ignoring the return value of the HCD reset_device callback. This commit should be backported to kernels as old as 3.2, that contain the commit 75d7cf72 "usbcore: refine warm reset logic".

commit 1c7439c6 upstream. USB 3.0 hubs and roothubs will automatically transition a failed hot reset to a warm (BH) reset. In that case, the warm reset change bit will be set, and the link state change bit may also be set. Change hub_port_finish_reset to unconditionally clear those change bits for USB 3.0 hubs. If these bits are not cleared, we may lose port change events from the roothub.

commit 92441b22 upstream. Commit 2a44e499 ("drm/nouveau/disp: introduce proper init/fini, separate from create/destroy") started to call display init routines on pre-nv50 hardware on module load. But LVDS init code sets driver state in a way which prevents modesetting code from operating properly. nv04_display_init calls nv04_dfp_restore, which sets encoder->last_dpms to NV_DPMS_CLEARED. drm_crtc_helper_set_mode nv04_dfp_prepare nv04_lvds_dpms(DRM_MODE_DPMS_OFF) nv04_lvds_dpms checks last_dpms mode (which is NV_DPMS_CLEARED) and wrongly assumes it's a "powersaving mode", the new one (DRM_MODE_DPMS_OFF) is too, so it skips calling some crucial lvds scripts.

commit 1d16638e upstream. If we do have endpoints named like "ep-a" then bEndpointAddress is counted internally by the gadget framework. If we do have endpoints named like "ep-1" then bEndpointAddress is assigned from the digit after "ep-". If we do have both, then it is likely that after we used up the "generic" endpoints we will use the digits and thus assign one bEndpointAddress to multiple endpoints. This theory can be proofed by using the completely enabled g_multi. Without this patch, the mass storage won't enumerate and times out because it shares endpoints with RNDIS. This patch also adds fills up the endpoints list so we have in total endpoints 1 to 15 in + out available while some of them are restricted to certain types like BULK or ISO. Without this change the nokia gadget won't load because the system does not provide enough (BULK) endpoints but it did before ep-a - ep-f were removed. Signed-off-by:

commit 5e20a4b5 upstream. Recent versions of udev cause synchronous firmware loading from the probe routine to fail because the request to user space would time out. The original fix for b43 (commit 6b6fa586) moved the firmware load from the probe routine to a work queue, but it still used synchronous firmware loading. This method is OK when b43 is built as a module; however, it fails when the driver is compiled into the kernel. This version changes the code to load the initial firmware file using request_firmware_nowait(). A completion event is used to hold the work queue until that file is available. This driver reads several firmware files - the remainder can be read synchronously. On some test systems, the async read fails; however, a following synch read works, thus the async failure falls through to the sync try.

commit 9c969d8c upstream. wait_event_interruptible function returns -ERESTARTSYS if it's interrupted by a signal. Driver should check the return value and handle this case properly. In mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() routine, as we are now checking wait_event_interruptible return value, the condition check is not required. Also, we have removed mwifiex_cancel_pending_ioctl() call to avoid a chance of sending second command to FW by other path as soon as we clear current command node. FW can not handle two commands simultaneously. Signed-off-by:

commit c0729eee upstream. Éric Piel reported a kernel oops in the "comedi_test" module. It was a NULL pointer dereference within `waveform_ai_interrupt()` (actually a timer function) that sometimes occurred when a running asynchronous command is cancelled (either by the `COMEDI_CANCEL` ioctl or by closing the device file). This seems to be a race between the caller of `waveform_ai_cancel()` which on return from that function goes and tears down the running command, and the timer function which uses the command. In particular, `async->cmd.chanlist` gets freed (and the pointer set to NULL) by `do_become_nonbusy()` in "comedi_fops.c" but a previously scheduled `waveform_ai_interrupt()` timer function will dereference that pointer regardless, leading to the oops. Fix it by replacing the `del_timer()` call in `waveform_ai_cancel()` with `del_timer_sync()`. Signed-off-by:

commit 34b55d8c upstream. The minimum period was set to 357 ns, while the divider for these boards is 50 ns. This prevented to output at maximum speed as ni_ao_cmdtest() would return 357 but would not accept it. Not sure why it was set to 357 ns (this was done before the git history, which starts 5 years ago). My guess is that it comes from reading the specification stating a 2.8 MHz rate (~ 357 ns). The latest specification states a 2.86 MHz rate (~ 350 ns), which makes a lot more sense. Tested on a pci-6251. Signed-off-by:

commit 7d3135af upstream. When a low-level comedi driver auto-configures a device, a `struct comedi_dev_file_info` is allocated (as well as a `struct comedi_device`) by `comedi_alloc_board_minor()`. A pointer to the hardware `struct device` is stored as a cookie in the `struct comedi_dev_file_info`. When the low-level comedi driver auto-unconfigures the device, `comedi_auto_unconfig()` uses the cookie to find the `struct comedi_dev_file_info` so it can detach the comedi device from the driver, clean it up and free it. A problem arises if the user manually unconfigures and reconfigures the comedi device using the `COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl so that is no longer associated with the original hardware device. The problem is that the cookie is not cleared, so that a call to `comedi_auto_unconfig()` from the low-level driver will still find it, detach it, clean it up and free it. Stop this problem occurring by always clearing the `hardware_device` cookie in the `struct comedi_dev_file_info` whenever the `COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl call is successful. Signed-off-by:

commit 3b4bc7bc upstream. This patch fixes some code that implements a work-around to a hardware bug in the ac97 controller on the pxa27x. A bug in the controller's warm reset functionality requires that the mfp used by the controller as the AC97_nRESET line be temporarily reconfigured as a generic output gpio (AF0) and manually held high for the duration of the warm reset cycle. This is what was done in the original code, but it was broken long ago by commit fb1bf8cd ([ARM] pxa: introduce processor specific pxa27x_assert_ac97reset()) which changed the mfp to a GPIO input instead of a high output. The fix requires the ac97 controller to obtain the gpio via gpio_request_one(), with arguments that configure the gpio as an output initially driven high. Tested on a palm treo 680 machine. Reportedly, this broken code only prevents a warm reset on hardware that lacks a pull-up on the line, which appears to be the case for me. Signed-off-by:

commit 41b645c8 upstream. Cold reset on the pxa27x currently fails and pxa2xx_ac97_try_cold_reset: cold reset timeout (GSR=0x44) appears in the kernel log. Through trial-and-error (the pxa270 developer's manual is mostly incoherent on the topic of ac97 reset), I got cold reset to complete by setting the WARM_RST bit in the GCR register (and later noticed that pxa3xx does this for cold reset as well). Also, a timeout loop is needed to wait for the reset to complete. Tested on a palm treo 680 machine. Signed-off-by:

commit c930812f upstream. udldrmfb only reads the main EDID block, and if that advertises extensions the drm_edid code expects them to be present, and starts reading beyond the buffer udldrmfb passes it. Although it may be possible to read more EDID info with the udl we simpy don't know how, and even if trial and error gets it working on one device, that is no guarantee it will work on other revisions. So this patch does a simple fix in the form of patching the EDID info to report 0 extension blocks, this fixes udldrmfb only doing 1024x768 on monitors with EDID extension blocks. Signed-off-by:

commit 128dd175 upstream. EPOLL_CTL_MOD sets the interest mask before calling f_op->poll() to ensure events are not missed. Since the modifications to the interest mask are not protected by the same lock as ep_poll_callback, we need to ensure the change is visible to other CPUs calling ep_poll_callback. We also need to ensure f_op->poll() has an up-to-date view of past events which occured before we modified the interest mask. So this barrier also pairs with the barrier in wq_has_sleeper(). This should guarantee either ep_poll_callback or f_op->poll() (or both) will notice the readiness of a recently-ready/modified item.

commit 2bbf0a14 upstream. The Way Access Filter in recent AMD CPUs may hurt the performance of some workloads, caused by aliasing issues in the L1 cache. This patch disables it on the affected CPUs. The issue is similar to that one of last year: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1107.3/00041.html This new patch does not replace the old one, we just need another quirk for newer CPUs. The performance penalty without the patch depends on the circumstances, but is a bit less than the last year's 3%. The workloads affected would be those that access code from the same physical page under different virtual addresses, so different processes using the same libraries with ASLR or multiple instances of PIE-binaries. The code needs to be accessed simultaneously from both cores of the same compute unit. More details can be found here: http://developer.amd.com/Assets/SharedL1InstructionCacheonAMD15hCPU.pdf CPUs affected are anything with the core known as Piledriver. That includes the new parts of the AMD A-Series (aka Trinity) and the just released new CPUs of the FX-Series (aka Vishera). The model numbering is a bit odd here: FX CPUs have model 2, A-Series has model 10h, with possible extensions to 1Fh. Hence the range of model ids. Signed-off-by:

commit 1f1d06c3 upstream. On COW, a new hugepage is allocated and charged to the memcg. If the system is oom or the charge to the memcg fails, however, the fault handler will return VM_FAULT_OOM which results in an oom kill. Instead, it's possible to fallback to splitting the hugepage so that the COW results only in an order-0 page being allocated and charged to the memcg which has a higher liklihood to succeed. This is expensive because the hugepage must be split in the page fault handler, but it is much better than unnecessarily oom killing a process. Signed-off-by:

The patch below applies to v3.6.11, with its v47 aoe driver. It is expected to apply to all currently maintained stable kernels except 3.7.y. A related but different fix has been posted for 3.7.y.
