syscore_shutdown uses initcall_debug to control the debug info output. It’s a good programming. But device_shutdown doesn’t. The patch changes device_shutdown to follow the style.

This patch documents the firmware cache mechanism so that users of request_firmware() know that it can be called safely inside device's suspend and resume callback, and the device's firmware needn't be cached any more by individual driver itself to deal with firmware loss during system resume.

This patch introduces one module parameter of 'path' in firmware_class to support customizing firmware image search path, so that people can use its own firmware path if the default built-in paths can't meet their demand[1], and the typical usage is passing the below from kernel command parameter when 'firmware_class' is built in kernel: firmware_class.path=$CUSTOMIZED_PATH [1], https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/11/337 Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

There is one race that both request_firmware() with the same firmware name. The race scenerio is as below: CPU1 CPU2 request_firmware() --> _request_firmware_load() return err another request_firmware() is coming --> _request_firmware_cleanup is called --> _request_firmware_prepare --> release_firmware ---> fw_lookup_and_allocate_buf --> spin_lock(&fwc->lock) ... __fw_lookup_buf() return true fw_free_buf() will be called --> ... kref_put --> decrease the refcount to 0 kref_get(&tmp->ref) ==> it will trigger warning due to refcount == 0 __fw_free_buf() --> ... spin_unlock(&fwc->lock) spin_lock(&fwc->lock) list_del(&buf->list) spin_unlock(&fwc->lock) kfree(buf) After that, the freed buf will be used. The key race is decreasing refcount to 0 and list_del is not protected together by fwc->lock, and it is possible another thread try to get it between refcount==0 and list_del. Fix it here to protect it together.

There is a race as below when calling request_firmware(): CPU1 CPU2 write 0 > loading mutex_lock(&fw_lock) ... set_bit FW_STATUS_DONE class_timeout is coming set_bit FW_STATUS_ABORT complete_all &completion ... mutex_unlock(&fw_lock) In this time, the bit FW_STATUS_DONE and FW_STATUS_ABORT are set, and request_firmware() will return failure due to condition in _request_firmware_load(): if (!buf->size || test_bit(FW_STATUS_ABORT, &buf->status)) retval = -ENOENT; But from the above scenerio, it should be a successful requesting. So we need judge if the bit FW_STATUS_DONE is already set before calling fw_load_abort() in timeout function. As Ming's proposal, we need change the timer into sched_work to benefit from using &fw_lock mutex also.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "Bug fixes galore, mostly in drivers as is often the case: 1) USB gadget and cdc_eem drivers need adjustments to their frame size lengths in order to handle VLANs correctly. From Ian Coolidge. 2) TIPC and several network drivers erroneously call tasklet_disable before tasklet_kill, fix from Xiaotian Feng. 3) r8169 driver needs to apply the WOL suspend quirk to more chipsets, fix from Cyril Brulebois. 4) Fix multicast filters on RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_35 r8169 chips, from Nathan Walp. 5) FDB netlink dumps should use RTM_NEWNEIGH as the message type, not zero. From John Fastabend. 6) Fix smsc95xx tx checksum offload on big-endian, from Steve Glendinning. 7) __inet_diag_dump() needs to repsect and report the error value returned from inet_diag_lock_handler() rather than ignore it. Otherwise if an inet diag handler is not available for a particular protocol, we essentially report success instead of giving an error indication. Fix from Cyrill Gorcunov. 8) When the QFQ packet scheduler sees TSO/GSO packets it does not handle things properly, and in fact ends up corrupting it's datastructures as well as mis-schedule packets. Fix from Paolo Valente. 9) Fix oopser in skb_loop_sk(), from Eric Leblond. 10) CXGB4 passes partially uninitialized datastructures in to FW commands, fix from Vipul Pandya. 11) When we send unsolicited ipv6 neighbour advertisements, we should send them to the link-local allnodes multicast address, as per RFC4861. Fix from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 12) There is some kind of bug in the usbnet's kevent deferral mechanism, but more immediately when it triggers an uncontrolled stream of kernel messages spam the log. Rate limit the error log message triggered when this problem occurs, as sending thousands of error messages into the kernel log doesn't help matters at all, and in fact makes further diagnosis more difficult. From Steve Glendinning. 13) Fix gianfar restore from hibernation, from Wang Dongsheng. 14) The netlink message attribute sizes are wrong in the ipv6 GRE driver, it was using the size of ipv4 addresses instead of ipv6 ones :-) Fix from Nicolas Dichtel." * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: gre6: fix rtnl dump messages gianfar: ethernet vanishes after restoring from hibernation usbnet: ratelimit kevent may have been dropped warnings ipv6: send unsolicited neighbour advertisements to all-nodes net: usb: cdc_eem: Fix rx skb allocation for 802.1Q VLANs usb: gadget: g_ether: fix frame size check for 802.1Q cxgb4: Fix initialization of SGE_CONTROL register isdn: Make CONFIG_ISDN depend on CONFIG_NETDEVICES cxgb4: Initialize data structures before using. af-packet: fix oops when socket is not present pkt_sched: enable QFQ to support TSO/GSO net: inet_diag -- Return error code if protocol handler is missed net: bnx2x: Fix typo in bnx2x driver smsc95xx: fix tx checksum offload for big endian rtnetlink: Use nlmsg type RTM_NEWNEIGH from dflt fdb dump ptp: update adjfreq callback description r8169: allow multicast packets on sub-8168f chipset. r8169: Fix WoL on RTL8168d/8111d. drivers/net: use tasklet_kill in device remove/close process tipc: do not use tasklet_disable before tasklet_kill

Pull sparc fixes from David Miller: "Several build/bug fixes for sparc, including: 1) Configuring a mix of static vs. modular sparc64 crypto modules didn't work, remove an ill-conceived attempt to only have to build the device match table for these drivers once to fix the problem. Reported by Meelis Roos. 2) Make the montgomery multiple/square and mpmul instructions actually usable in 32-bit tasks. Essentially this involves providing 32-bit userspace with a way to use a 64-bit stack when it needs to. 3) Our sparc64 atomic backoffs don't yield cpu strands properly on Niagara chips. Use pause instruction when available to achieve this, otherwise use a benign instruction we know blocks the strand for some time. 4) Wire up kcmp 5) Fix the build of various drivers by removing the unnecessary blocking of OF_GPIO when SPARC. 6) Fix unintended regression wherein of_address_to_resource stopped being provided. Fix from Andreas Larsson. 7) Fix NULL dereference in leon_handle_ext_irq(), also from Andreas Larsson." * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc: sparc64: Fix build with mix of modular vs. non-modular crypto drivers. sparc: Support atomic64_dec_if_positive properly. of/address: sparc: Declare of_address_to_resource() as an extern function for sparc again sparc32, leon: Check for existent irq_map entry in leon_handle_ext_irq sparc: Add sparc support for platform_get_irq() sparc: Allow OF_GPIO on sparc. qlogicpti: Fix build warning. sparc: Wire up sys_kcmp. sparc64: Improvde documentation and readability of atomic backoff code. sparc64: Use pause instruction when available. sparc64: Fix cpu strand yielding. sparc64: Make montmul/montsqr/mpmul usable in 32-bit threads.
