      saner iov_iter initialization primitives · bc917be8
      Al Viro authored
      iovec-backed iov_iter instances are assumed to satisfy several properties:
      	* no more than UIO_MAXIOV elements in iovec array
      	* total size of all ranges is no more than MAX_RW_COUNT
      	* all ranges pass access_ok().
      
      The problem is, invariants of data structures should be established in the
      primitives creating those data structures, not in the code using those
      primitives.  And iov_iter_init() violates that principle.  For a while we
      managed to get away with that, but once the use of iov_iter started to
      spread, it didn't take long for shit to hit the fan - missed check in
      sys_sendto() had introduced a roothole.
      
      We _do_ have primitives for importing and validating iovecs (both native and
      compat ones) and those primitives are almost always followed by shoving the
      resulting iovec into iov_iter.  Life would be considerably simpler (and safer)
      if we combined those primitives with initializing iov_iter.
      
      That gives us two new primitives - import_iovec() and compat_import_iovec().
      Calling conventions:
      	iovec = iov_array;
      	err = import_iovec(direction, uvec, nr_segs,
      			   ARRAY_SIZE(iov_array), &iovec,
      			   &iter);
      imports user vector into kernel space (into iov_array if it fits, allocated
      if it doesn't fit or if iovec was NULL), validates it and sets iter up to
      refer to it.  On success 0 is returned and allocated kernel copy (or NULL
      if the array had fit into caller-supplied one) is returned via iovec.
      On failure all allocations are undone and -E... is returned.  If the total
      size of ranges exceeds MAX_RW_COUNT, the excess is silently truncated.
      
      compat_import_iovec() expects uvec to be a pointer to user array of compat_iovec;
      otherwise it's identical to import_iovec().
      
      Finally, import_single_range() sets iov_iter backed by single-element iovec
      covering a user-supplied range -
      
      	err = import_single_range(direction, address, size, iovec, &iter);
      
      does validation and sets iter up.  Again, size in excess of MAX_RW_COUNT gets
      silently truncated.
      
      Next commits will be switching the things up to use of those and reducing
      the amount of iov_iter_init() instances.

      sparc64: Fix several bugs in memmove(). · 2077cef4
      David S. Miller authored
      Firstly, handle zero length calls properly.  Believe it or not there
      are a few of these happening during early boot.
      
      Next, we can't just drop to a memcpy() call in the forward copy case
      where dst <= src.  The reason is that the cache initializing stores
      used in the Niagara memcpy() implementations can end up clearing out
      cache lines before we've sourced their original contents completely.
      
      For example, considering NG4memcpy, the main unrolled loop begins like
      this:
      
           load   src + 0x00
           load   src + 0x08
           load   src + 0x10
           load   src + 0x18
           load   src + 0x20
           store  dst + 0x00
      
      Assume dst is 64 byte aligned and let's say that dst is src - 8 for
      this memcpy() call.  That store at the end there is the one to the
      first line in the cache line, thus clearing the whole line, which thus
      clobbers "src + 0x28" before it even gets loaded.
      
      To avoid this, just fall through to a simple copy only mildly
      optimized for the case where src and dst are 8 byte aligned and the
      length is a multiple of 8 as well.  We could get fancy and call
      GENmemcpy() but this is good enough for how this thing is actually
      used.

      cx82310_eth: wait for firmware to become ready · f40bff42
      Ondrej Zary authored
      When the device is powered up, some (older) firmware versions fail to work
      properly if we send commands before the boot is complete (everything is OK
      when the device is hot-plugged). The firmware indicates its ready status by
      putting the link up.
      Newer firmwares delay the first command so they don't suffer from this problem.
      They also report the link being always up.
      
      Wait for firmware to become ready (link up) before sending any commands and/or
      data.
      
      This also allows lowering CMD_TIMEOUT value to a reasonable time.
      
      Tested with 4.1.0.9 (old) and 4.1.0.30 (new) firmware versions.

      Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
       "These are fixes for recent regressions (PCI/ACPI resources and at91
        RTC locking), a stable-candidate powercap RAPL driver fix and two ARM
        cpuidle fixes (one stable-candidate too).
      
        Specifics:
      
         - Revert a recent PCI commit related to IRQ resources management that
           introduced a regression for drivers attempting to bind to devices
           whose previous drivers did not balance pci_enable_device() and
           pci_disable_device() as expected (Rafael J Wysocki).
      
         - Fix a deadlock in at91_rtc_interrupt() introduced by a typo in a
           recent commit related to wakeup interrupt handling (Dan Carpenter).
      
         - Allow the power capping RAPL (Running-Average Power Limit) driver
           to use different energy units for domains within one CPU package
           which is necessary to handle Intel Haswell EP processors correctly
           (Jacob Pan).
      
         - Improve the cpuidle mvebu driver's handling of Armada XP SoCs by
           updating the target residency and exit latency numbers for those
           chips (Sebastien Rannou).
      
         - Prevent the cpuidle mvebu driver from calling cpu_pm_enter() twice
           in a row before cpu_pm_exit() is called on the same CPU which
           breaks the core's assumptions regarding the usage of those
           functions (Gregory Clement)"
