__cpufreq_remove_dev() is called on multiple occasions: cpufreq_driver unregister and cpu removals. Current implementation of this routine is overly complex without much need. If the cpu to be removed is the policy->cpu, we remove the policy first and add all other cpus again from policy->cpus and then finally call __cpufreq_remove_dev() again to remove the cpu to be deleted. Haahhhh.. There exist a simple solution to removal of a cpu: - Simply use the old policy structure - update its fields like: policy->cpu, etc. - notify any users of cpufreq, which depend on changing policy->cpu Hence this patch, which tries to implement the above theory. It is tested well by myself on ARM big.LITTLE TC2 SoC, which has 5 cores (2 A15 and 3 A7). Both A15's share same struct policy and all A7's share same policy structure.

This is how the core works: cpufreq_driver_unregister() - subsys_interface_unregister() - for_each_cpu() call cpufreq_remove_dev(), i.e. 0,1,2,3,4 when we unregister. cpufreq_remove_dev(): - Remove policy node - Call cpufreq_add_dev() for next cpu, sharing mask with removed cpu. i.e. When cpu 0 is removed, we call it for cpu 1. And when called for cpu 2, we call it for cpu 3. - cpufreq_add_dev() would call cpufreq_driver->init() - init would return mask as AND of 2, 3 and 4 for cluster A7. - cpufreq core would do online_cpu && policy->cpus Here is the BUG(). Because cpu hasn't died but we have just unregistered the cpufreq driver, online cpu would still have cpu 2 in it. And so thing go bad again. Solution: Keep cpumask of cpus that are registered with cpufreq core and clear cpus when we get a call from subsys_interface_unregister() via cpufreq_remove_dev().

Because cpufreq core and governors worry only about the online cpus, if a cpu is hot [un]plugged, we must notify governors about it, otherwise be ready to expect something unexpected. We already have notifiers in the form of CPUFREQ_GOV_START/CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP, we just need to call them now. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

cpufreq core doesn't manage offline cpus and if driver->init() has returned mask including offline cpus, it may result in unwanted behavior by cpufreq core or governors. We need to get only online cpus in this mask. There are two places to fix this mask, cpufreq core and cpufreq driver. It makes sense to do this at common place and hence is done in core.

This patch fixes a bug that occurred when we had load on a secondary CPU and the primary CPU was sleeping. Only one sampling timer was spawned and it was spawned as a deferred timer on the primary CPU, so when a secondary CPU had a change in load this was not detected by the cpufreq governor (both ondemand and conservative). This patch make sure that deferred timers are run on all CPUs in the case of software controlled CPUs that run on the same frequency.

i2c_hid_output_raw_report is used by hidraw to forward set_report requests. The current implementation of i2c_hid_set_report needs to take the report_id as an argument. The report_id is stored in the first byte of the buffer in argument of i2c_hid_output_raw_report. Not removing the report_id from the given buffer adds this byte 2 times in the command, leading to a non working command.

Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms. When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot. This is a result of commit b732d439 that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled. MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers don't need to be enabled. The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag. Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to adjust the sp by +8 before returning. So when not disabled, the original jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp. The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the "jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the "addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked because any access to the stack is done through the frame pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when the function returns. This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount" instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the "addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr". When disabled, there will be two nops. This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started. Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the routines are SMP safe. When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops. Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.

When compiling for my yeeloong2, which supposedly supports hibernation, which compiles kernel/power/snapshot.c which calls virt_addr_valid(), I got this error: LD init/built-in.o kernel/built-in.o: In function `memory_bm_free': snapshot.c:(.text+0x4c9c4): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid' snapshot.c:(.text+0x4ca58): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid' kernel/built-in.o: In function `snapshot_write_next': (.text+0x4e44c): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid' kernel/built-in.o: In function `snapshot_write_next': (.text+0x4e890): undefined reference to `__virt_addr_valid' make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 I suspect that __virt_addr_valid() is fine for mips 64.

thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool which can lead to incorrect limits being set. The fix here simply deletes the thin_io_hints() hook which leaves the existing stacking infrastructure to set the limits correctly. When a thin-pool uses an MD device for the data device a thin device from the thin-pool must respect MD's constraints about disallowing a bio from spanning multiple chunks. Otherwise we can see problems. If the raid0 chunksize is 1152K and thin-pool chunksize is 256K I see the following md/raid0 error (with extra debug tracing added to thin_endio) when mkfs.xfs is executed against the thin device: md/raid0:md99: make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 1152k 6688 127 device-mapper: thin: bio sector=2080 err=-5 bi_size=130560 bi_rw=17 bi_vcnt=32 bi_idx=0 This extra DM debugging shows that the failing bio is spanning across the first and second logical 1152K chunk (sector 2080 + 255 takes the bio beyond the first chunk's boundary of sector 2304). So the bio splitting that DM is doing clearly isn't respecting the MD limits. max_hw_sectors_kb is 127 for both the thin-pool and thin device (queue_max_hw_sectors returns 255 so we'll excuse sysfs's lack of precision). So this explains why bi_size is 130560. But the thin device's max_hw_sectors_kb should be 4 (PAGE_SIZE) given that it doesn't have a .merge function (for bio_add_page to consult indirectly via dm_merge_bvec) yet the thin-pool does sit above an MD device that has a compulsory merge_bvec_fn. This scenario is exactly why DM must resort to sending single PAGE_SIZE bios to the underlying layer. Some additional context for this is available in the header for commit 8cbeb67a ("dm: avoid unsupported spanning of md stripe boundaries"). Long story short, the reason a thin device doesn't properly get configured to have a max_hw_sectors_kb of 4 (PAGE_SIZE) is that thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool device directly to the thin device's queue limits. Fix this by eliminating thin_io_hints. Doing so is safe because the block layer's queue limits stacking already enables the upper level thin device to inherit the thin-pool device's discard and minimum_io_size and optimal_io_size limits that get set in pool_io_hints. But avoiding the queue limits copy allows the thin and thin-pool limits to be different where it is important, namely max_hw_sectors_kb.

Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things). This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

Pull xfs bugfixes from Ben Myers: "Here are fixes for returning EFSCORRUPTED on probe of a non-xfs filesystem, the stack switch in xfs_bmapi_allocate, a crash in _xfs_buf_find, speculative preallocation as the filesystem nears ENOSPC, an unmount hang, a race with AIO, and a regression with xfs_fsr: - fix return value when filesystem probe finds no XFS magic, a regression introduced in 98021821. - fix stack switch in __xfs_bmapi_allocate by moving the check for stack switch up into xfs_bmapi_write. - fix oops in _xfs_buf_find by validating that the requested block is within the filesystem bounds. - limit speculative preallocation near ENOSPC. - fix an unmount hang in xfs_wait_buftarg by freeing the xfs_buf_log_item in xfs_buf_item_unlock. - fix a possible use after free with AIO. - fix xfs_swap_extents after removal of xfs_flushinval_pages, a regression introduced in commit fb595814." * tag 'for-linus-v3.8-rc6' of git://oss.sgi.com/xfs/xfs: xfs: Fix xfs_swap_extents() after removal of xfs_flushinval_pages() xfs: Fix possible use-after-free with AIO xfs: fix shutdown hang on invalid inode during create xfs: limit speculative prealloc near ENOSPC thresholds xfs: fix _xfs_buf_find oops on blocks beyond the filesystem end xfs: pull up stack_switch check into xfs_bmapi_write xfs: Do not return EFSCORRUPTED when filesystem probe finds no XFS magic
