commit c2fd1a4e upstream. This change adds in the USB product ID for the Gyration GYR4101US USB media center remote control. This remote is similar enough to the other two devices that this driver can be used without any other changes to get full support for the remote.

BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/586347 Symptom: On the Sony VPCS11V9E, using GStreamer-based applications with PulseAudio in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS results in stuttering audio. It appears to worsen with increased I/O. Test case: use Rhythmbox under increased I/O pressure. This symptom is reproducible in the current daily stable alsa-driver snapshots (at least up until 21 May 2010; later snapshots fail to build from source due to missing preprocessor directives when compiled against 2.6.32).

commit ead4046b upstream. Commit 7910b4a1 in 2.6.34 changed the runtime->boundary calculation to make this value a multiple of both the buffer_size and the period_size, because the latter is assumed by the runtime->hw_ptr_interrupt calculation. However, due to the lack of a ioctl that could read the software parameters before they are set, the kernel requires that alsa-lib calculates the boundary value, too. The changed algorithm leads to a different boundary value used by alsa-lib, which makes, e.g., mplayer fail to play a 44.1 kHz file because the silence_size parameter is now invalid; bug report: <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=5015>. This patch reverts the change to the boundary calculation, and instead fixes the hw_ptr_interrupt calculation to be period-aligned regardless of the boundary value.

commit b406e610 upstream. In the cleanup of the hw_ptr update functions in 2.6.33, the calculation of the delta value was changed to use the modulo operator to protect against a negative difference due to the pointer wrapping around at the boundary. However, the ptr variables are unsigned, so a negative difference would result in the two complement's value which has no relation to the actual difference relative to the boundary; the result is typically some value near LONG_MAX-boundary. Furthermore, even if the modulo operation would be done with signed types, the result of a negative dividend could be negative. The invalid delta value is then caught by the following checks, but this means that the pointer update is ignored. To fix this, use a range check as in the other pointer calculations.

commit fd6be105 upstream. Currently, we can hit a nasty case with optimistic spinning on mutexes: CPU A tries to take a mutex, while holding the BKL CPU B tried to take the BLK while holding the mutex This looks like a AB-BA scenario but in practice, is allowed and happens due to the auto-release on schedule() nature of the BKL. In that case, the optimistic spinning code can get us into a situation where instead of going to sleep, A will spin waiting for B who is spinning waiting for A, and the only way out of that loop is the need_resched() test in mutex_spin_on_owner(). This patch fixes it by completely disabling spinning if we own the BKL. This adds one more detail to the extensive list of reasons why it's a bad idea for kernel code to be holding the BKL.

commit ea4ceb18 upstream. When the seqno for a vis packet had a wrap around from i.e. 255 to 0, add_packet() would falsely claim the older packet with the seqno 255 as newer as the one with the seqno of 0 and would therefore ignore the new packet. This happens with all following vis packets until the old vis packet expires after 180 seconds timeout. This patch fixes this issue and gets rid of these highly undesired 3min. breaks for the vis-server.

commit 107c32fe upstream. send_vis_packets() would disable interrupts before calling dev_queue_xmit() which resulting in a backtrace in local_bh_enable(). Fix this by using kref on the vis_info object so that we can call send_vis_packets() without holding vis_hash_lock. vis_hash_lock also used to protect recv_list, so we now need a new lock to protect that instead of vis_hash_lock. Also a few checkpatch cleanups.

commit f6551527 upstream. In http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=597299, the vt6655 driver generates a kernel BUG on a NULL pointer dereference at NULL. This problem has been traced to a failure in the wpa_set_wpadev() routine. As the vt6656 driver does not call this routine, the vt6655 code is similarly set to skip the call.

commit 91885258 upstream. This is the second attempt to fix the problem whereby a COMMIT call causes a lease break and triggers a possible deadlock. The problem is that nfsd attempts to break a lease on a COMMIT call. This triggers a delegation recall if the lease is held for a delegation. If the client is the one holding the delegation and it's the same one on which it's issuing the COMMIT, then it can't return that delegation until the COMMIT is complete. But, nfsd won't complete the COMMIT until the delegation is returned. The client and server are essentially deadlocked until the state is marked bad (due to the client not responding on the callback channel). The first patch attempted to deal with this by eliminating the open of the file altogether and simply had nfsd_commit pass a NULL file pointer to the vfs_fsync_range. That would conflict with some work in progress by Christoph Hellwig to clean up the fsync interface, so this patch takes a different approach. This declares a new NFSD_MAY_NOT_BREAK_LEASE access flag that indicates to nfsd_open that it should not break any leases when opening the file, and has nfsd_commit set that flag on the nfsd_open call. For now, this patch leaves nfsd_commit opening the file with write access since I'm not clear on what sort of access would be more appropriate.

commit 15ddb4ae upstream. The /proc/fs/nfsd/versions file calls nfsd_vers() to check whether the particular nfsd version is present/available. The problem is that once I turn off e.g. NFSD-V4 this call returns -1 which is true from the callers POV which is wrong. The proposal is to report false in that case.

commit fa9dc265 upstream. Commit a45185d2 "cpumask: convert kernel/compat.c" broke libnuma, which abuses sched_getaffinity to find out NR_CPUS in order to parse /sys/devices/system/node/node*/cpumap. On NUMA systems with less than 32 possibly CPUs, the current compat_sys_sched_getaffinity now returns '4' instead of the actual NR_CPUS/8, which makes libnuma bail out when parsing the cpumap. The libnuma call sched_getaffinity(0, bitmap, 4096) at first. It mean the libnuma expect the return value of sched_getaffinity() is either len argument or NR_CPUS. But it doesn't expect to return nr_cpu_ids. Strictly speaking, userland requirement are 1) Glibc assume the return value mean the lengh of initialized of mask argument. E.g. if sched_getaffinity(1024) return 128, glibc make zero fill rest 896 byte. 2) Libnuma assume the return value can be used to guess NR_CPUS in kernel. It assume len-arg<NR_CPUS makes -EINVAL. But it try len=4096 at first and 4096 is always bigger than NR_CPUS. Then, if we remove strange min_length normalization, we never hit -EINVAL case. sched_getaffinity() already solved this issue. This patch adapts compat_sys_sched_getaffinity() to match the non-compat case.

commit e7ecd435 upstream. There are ATAPI devices which raise AN when hit by commands issued by open(). This leads to infinite loop of AN -> MEDIA_CHANGE uevent -> udev open() to check media -> AN. Both ACS and SerialATA standards don't define in which case ATAPI devices are supposed to raise or not raise AN. They both list media insertion event as a possible use case for ATAPI ANs but there is no clear description of what constitutes such events. As such, it seems a bit too naive to export ANs directly to userland as MEDIA_CHANGE events without further verification (which should behave similarly to windows as it apparently is the only thing that some hardware vendors are testing against). This patch adds libata.atapi_an module parameter and disables ATAPI AN by default for now.

commit 176306f5 upstream. Commit 1f36f774 broke FS_REVAL_DOT semantics. In particular, before this patch, the command ls -l in an NFS mounted directory would always check if the directory on the server had changed and if so would flush and refill the pagecache for the dir. After this patch, the same "ls -l" will repeatedly return stale date until the cached attributes for the directory time out. The following patch fixes this by ensuring the d_revalidate is called by do_last when "." is being looked-up. link_path_walk has already called d_revalidate, but in that case LOOKUP_OPEN is not set so nfs_lookup_verify_inode chooses not to do any validation. The following patch restores the original behaviour. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

commit c0555642 upstream. Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool and would therefore print out the usage information and terminate. This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is currently the only such example of this). I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints. The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN. Signed-off-by: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au.ibm.com> Acked-by: David S.

commit 2623a1d5 upstream. This fixes a NULL pointer dereference that is triggered when taking a cpu offline after oprofile was initialized, e.g.: $ opcontrol --init $ opcontrol --start-daemon $ opcontrol --shutdown $ opcontrol --deinit $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online See the crash dump below. Though the counter has been disabled the cpu notifier is still active and trying to use already freed counter data. This fix is for linux-stable. To proper fix this, the hotplug code must be rewritten. Thus I will leave a WARN_ON_ONCE() message with this patch.

Now we have a set of nested attributes: IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED) IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED) IFLA_VF_MAC IFLA_VF_VLAN IFLA_VF_TX_RATE This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired. Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state. The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like something to consider for 2.6.34.

transport may be free before ICMP proto unreachable timer expire, so we should delete active ICMP proto unreachable timer when transport is going away.

TCP MD5 support uses percpu data for temporary storage. It currently disables preemption so that same storage cannot be reclaimed by another thread on same cpu. We also have to make sure a softirq handler wont try to use also same context. Various bug reports demonstrated corruptions. Fix is to disable preemption and BH.
