commit 9b29050f upstream. The current TPM TIS driver in git discards the timeout values returned from the TPM. The check of the response packet needs to consider that the return_code field is 0 on success and the size of the expected packet is equivalent to the header size + u32 length indicator for the TPM_GetCapability() result + 3 timeout indicators of type u32. I am also adding a sysfs entry 'timeouts' showing the timeouts that are being used. Signed-off-by:

commit c4ff4b82 upstream. If duration variable value is 0 at this point, it's because chip->vendor.duration wasn't filled by tpm_get_timeouts() yet. This patch sets then the lowest timeout just to give enough time for tpm_get_timeouts() to further succeed. This fix avoids long boot times in case another entity attempts to send commands to the TPM when the TPM isn't accessible. Signed-off-by:

commit e5cce6c1 upstream. commit 3f0d3d01 adds a check for PNP device id to the common tpm_tis_init() function, which in some cases (force=1) will be called without the device being a member of a pnp_dev. Oopsing and panics ensue. Move the test up to before the call to tpm_tis_init(), since it just modifies a global variable anyway. Signed-off-by:

commit c3810c88 upstream. This patch (as1445) fixes a bug in the runtime PM core left over from the addition of the no_callbacks flag. If this flag is set then it is possible for rpm_suspend() to be called in_interrupt, so when releasing spinlocks it's important not to re-enable interrupts. To avoid an unnecessary save-and-restore of the interrupt flag, the patch also inlines a pm_request_idle() call. This fixes Bugzilla #27482. (The offending code was added in 2.6.37, so it's not necessary to apply this to any earlier stable kernels.) Signed-off-by:

commit e91ece55 upstream. md_make_request was calling bio_sectors() for part_stat_add after it was calling the make_request function. This is bad because the make_request function can free the bio and because the bi_size field can change around. The fix here was suggested by Jens Axboe. It saves the sector count before the make_request call. I hit this with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC turned on while trying to break his pretty fusionio card. Signed-off-by:

commit bf2cb0da upstream. When a RAID6 is converted to a RAID5, the extra drive should be discarded. However it isn't due to a typo in a comparison. This bug was introduced in commit e93f68a1 in 2.6.35-rc4 and is suitable for any -stable since than. As the extra drive is not removed, the 'degraded' counter is wrong and so the RAID5 will not respond correctly to a subsequent failure. Signed-off-by:

commit 0ca69886 upstream. When an md device is in the process of coming on line it is possible for an IO request (typically a partition table probe) to get through before the array is fully initialised, which can cause unexpected behaviour (e.g. a crash). So explicitly record when the array is ready for IO and don't allow IO through until then. There is no possibility for a similar problem when the array is going off-line as there must only be one 'open' at that time, and it is busy off-lining the array and so cannot send IO requests. So no memory barrier is needed in md_stop() This has been a bug since commit 409c57f3 in 2.6.30 which introduced md_make_request. Before then, each personality would register its own make_request_fn when it was ready. This is suitable for any stable kernel from 2.6.30.y onwards. Signed-off-by:

commit 6c987910 upstream. commit 589a594b (2.6.37-rc4) fixed a problem were md_thread would sometimes call the ->run function at a bad time. If an error is detected during array start up after the md_thread has been started, the md_thread is killed. This resulted in the ->run function being called once. However the array may not be in a state that it is safe to call ->run. However the fix imposed meant that ->run was not called on a timeout. This means that when an array goes idle, bitmap bits do not get cleared promptly. While the array is busy the bits will still be cleared when appropriate so this is not very serious. There is no risk to data. Change the test so that we only avoid calling ->run when the thread is being stopped. This more explicitly addresses the problem situation. This is suitable for 2.6.37-stable and any -stable kernel to which 589a594b was applied. Signed-off-by:

commit bf572541 upstream. Commit 1a855a06 (2.6.37-rc4) fixed a problem where devices were re-added when they shouldn't be but caused a regression in a less common case that means sometimes devices cannot be re-added when they should be. In particular, when re-adding a device to an array without metadata we should always access the device, but after the above commit we didn't. This patch sets the In_sync flag in that case so that the re-add succeeds. This patch is suitable for any -stable kernel to which 1a855a06 was applied. Signed-off-by:

commit 4e5518ca upstream. pcmcia_request_irq() and pcmcia_enable_device() are intended to be called from process context (first function allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL, second take a mutex). We can not take spin lock and call them. It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.

commit 6dc19899 upstream. I noticed a failure where we hit the following WARN_ON in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt: if (!cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(cpu, data->cpumask)) continue; data->csd.func(data->csd.info); refs = atomic_dec_return(&data->refs); WARN_ON(refs < 0); <------------------------- We atomically tested and cleared our bit in the cpumask, and yet the number of cpus left (ie refs) was 0. How can this be? It turns out commit 54fdade1 ("generic-ipi: make struct call_function_data lockless") is at fault. It removes locking from smp_call_function_many and in doing so creates a rather complicated race. The problem comes about because: - The smp_call_function_many interrupt handler walks call_function.queue without any locking. - We reuse a percpu data structure in smp_call_function_many. - We do not wait for any RCU grace period before starting the next smp_call_function_many. Imagine a scenario where CPU A does two smp_call_functions back to back, and CPU B does an smp_call_function in between. We concentrate on how CPU C handles the calls: CPU A CPU B CPU C CPU D smp_call_function smp_call_function_interrupt walks call_function.queue sees data from CPU A on list smp_call_function smp_call_function_interrupt walks call_function.queue sees (stale) CPU A on list smp_call_function int clears last ref on A list_del_rcu, unlock smp_call_function reuses percpu *data A data->cpumask sees and clears bit in cpumask might be using old or new fn! decrements refs below 0 set data->refs (too late!) The important thing to note is since the interrupt handler walks a potentially stale call_function.queue without any locking, then another cpu can view the percpu *data structure at any time, even when the owner is in the process of initialising it. The following test case hits the WARN_ON 100% of the time on my PowerPC box (having 128 threads does help :) #include <linux/module.h> #include <linux/init.h> #define ITERATIONS 100 static void do_nothing_ipi(void *dummy) { } static void do_ipis(struct work_struct *dummy) { int i; for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++) smp_call_function(do_nothing_ipi, NULL, 1); printk(KERN_DEBUG "cpu %d finished\n", smp_processor_id()); } static struct work_struct work[NR_CPUS]; static int __init testcase_init(void) { int cpu; for_each_online_cpu(cpu) { INIT_WORK(&work[cpu], do_ipis); schedule_work_on(cpu, &work[cpu]); } return 0; } static void __exit testcase_exit(void) { } module_init(testcase_init) module_exit(testcase_exit) MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); MODULE_AUTHOR("Anton Blanchard"); I tried to fix it by ordering the read and the write of ->cpumask and ->refs. In doing so I missed a critical case but Paul McKenney was able to spot my bug thankfully :) To ensure we arent viewing previous iterations the interrupt handler needs to read ->refs then ->cpumask then ->refs _again_. Thanks to Milton Miller and Paul McKenney for helping to debug this issue.

commit 20d9600c upstream. When using devices that support max_segments > BIO_MAX_PAGES (256), direct IO tries to allocate a bio with more pages than allowed, which leads to an oops in dio_bio_alloc(). Clamp the request to the supported maximum, and change dio_bio_alloc() to reflect that bio_alloc() will always return a bio when called with __GFP_WAIT and a valid number of vectors.

commit 925268a0 upstream. Now, memory_hotplug_(un)lock() is used for add/remove/offline pages for avoiding races with hibernation. But this should be held in online_pages(), too. It seems asymmetric. There are cases where one has to avoid a race with memory hotplug notifier and his own local code, and hotplug v.s. hotplug. This will add a generic solution for avoiding races. In other view, having lock here has no big impacts. online pages is tend to be done by udev script at el against each memory section one by one. Then, it's better to have lock here, too. Reviewed-by:

commit de1f016f upstream. Commit 2a48fc0a ("block: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex") replaced uses of the BKL in the nbd driver with mutex operations.

However, that other ioctl blocks, waiting for the module-level mutex that replaced the BKL, and then we're stuck. This patch removes the module-level mutex altogether. It's clearly wrong, and as far as I can see, it's entirely unnecessary, since the nbd driver maintains per-device mutexes, and I don't see anything that would require a module-level (or kernel-level, for that matter) mutex.

This means that the current implementation of swapaccount[=1|0] doesn't work at all because if there is a value for the parameter then we are testing for "0" resp. "1" but we are getting "=0" resp.

commit fbea6684 upstream. Remove the broken line wrapping handling in pdc_iodc_print().

commit e159489b upstream. Currently, the lockdep annotation in flush_work() requires exclusive access on the workqueue the target work is queued on and triggers warning if a work is trying to flush another work on the same workqueue; however, this is no longer true as workqueues can now execute multiple works concurrently. This patch adds lock_map_acquire_read() and make process_one_work() hold read access to the workqueue while executing a work and start_flush_work() check for write access if concurrnecy level is one or the workqueue has a rescuer (as only one execution resource - the rescuer - is guaranteed to be available under memory pressure), and read access if higher. This better represents what's going on and removes spurious lockdep warnings which are triggered by fake dependency chain created through flush_work(). * Peter pointed out that flushing another work from a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM wq breaks forward progress guarantee under memory pressure. Condition check accordingly updated. Signed-off-by:

When converting to the new cpumask code I screwed up: - if (cpu_isset(cpu, numa_cpumask_lookup_table[node])) { - cpu_clear(cpu, numa_cpumask_lookup_table[node]); + if (cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, node_to_cpumask_map[node])) { + cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, node_to_cpumask_map[node]); This was introduced in commit 25863de0 (powerpc/cpumask: Convert NUMA code to new cpumask API) Fix it.

commit 57cdfdf8 upstream. Spinlocks on shared processor partitions use H_YIELD to notify the hypervisor we are waiting on another virtual CPU. Unfortunately this means the hcall tracepoints can recurse. The patch below adds a percpu depth and checks it on both the entry and exit hcall tracepoints. Signed-off-by:

commit b2e0861e upstream. In order to prevent the fsl_dma driver from claiming the DMA channels that the P1022DS audio driver needs, the compatible properties for those nodes must say "fsl,ssi-dma-channel" instead of "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel". Signed-off-by:

commit 02a8f01b upstream. Commit 7667aa06 added logic to wait for the last queue of the group to become busy (have at least one request), so that the group does not lose out for not being continuously backlogged. The commit did not check for the condition that the last queue already has some requests. As a result, if the queue already has requests, wait_busy is set. Later on, cfq_select_queue() checks the flag, and decides that since the queue has a request now and wait_busy is set, the queue is expired. This results in early expiration of the queue. This patch fixes the problem by adding a check to see if queue already has requests. If it does, wait_busy is not set. As a result, time slices do not expire early. The queues with more than one request are usually buffered writers. Testing shows improvement in isolation between buffered writers. Signed-off-by:

commit 06c3bc65 upstream. cpu_stopper_thread() migration_cpu_stop() __migrate_task() deactivate_task() dequeue_task() dequeue_task_rq() update_curr_rt() Will call update_curr_rt() on rq->curr, which at that time is rq->stop. The problem is that rq->stop.prio matches an RT prio and thus falsely assumes its a rt_sched_class task. Reported-Debuged-Tested-Acked-by:
