Add wrapper functions for the following compat system calls: * readahead * sendfile64 * tkill * tgkill * keyctl This ensures that the high order bits of the parameter registers are correctly sign extended.

Precreate stop_machine threads in case the machine supports ETR/STP. Otherwise we might deadlock if a time sync operation gets scheduled and the creation of stop_machine threads would cause disk I/O. This is just the minimal fix. The real fix would be to only precreate stop_machine threads if ETR/STP is actually used. But that would be a rather large and complicated patch.

On (initial) cpu hotplug the lowcore values for user_timer and system_timer don't get initialized like they would get on each process schedule. On initial start of secondary cpus this leads to the situation where per thread user/system_timer values are larger than the corresponding contents of the lowcore. When later calculating time spent in user/system context the result can be negative. So for cpu hotplug we should manually initialize lowcore values.

When 31 bit user space programs call sigaltstack on a 64 bit Linux OS, the system call returns -1 with errno=EFAULT. The 31 bit pointer passed to the system call is extended to 64 bit, but the high order bits are not set to zero. The kernel detects the invalid user space pointer and returns -EFAULT. To solve the problem, sys32_sigaltstack_wrapper() instead of sys32_sigaltstack() has to be called. The wrapper function sets the high order bits to zero.

Use the personality() macro to mask out all bits that are not relevant for the personality type. The personality field contains bits for other things as well, so without masking out the not relevalent bits the comparison won't do what is expected.

A pointer to wm8400_regulator_probe is passed to the core via platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late. An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function from the struct platform_driver.

Commit fe333321 ("powerpc: Change u64/s64 to a long long integer type") changed u64 from unsigned long to unsigned long long, which means that printk formats for printing u64 values should use "ll" instead of "l" to avoid warnings.

The current work request posting code writes the LSO segment before writing any data segments. This leaves a window where the LSO segment overwrites the stamping in one cacheline that the HCA prefetches before the rest of the cacheline is filled with the correct data segments. When the HCA processes this work request, a local protection error may result. Fix this by saving the LSO header size field off and writing it only after all data segments are written. This fix is a cleaned-up version of a patch from Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>. This fixes <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1383>.

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/btrfs-unstable: Btrfs: fix ioctl arg size (userland incompatible change!) Btrfs: Clear the device->running_pending flag before bailing on congestion
-
Chris Mason authored
The structure used to send device in btrfs ioctl calls was not properly aligned, and so 32 bit ioctls would not work properly on 64 bit kernels. We could fix this with compat ioctls, but we're just one byte away and it doesn't make sense at this stage to carry about the compat ioctls forever at this stage in the project. This patch brings the ioctl arg up to an evenly aligned 4k. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Chris Mason authored
Btrfs maintains a queue of async bio submissions so the checksumming threads don't have to wait on get_request_wait. In order to avoid extra wakeups, this code has a running_pending flag that is used to tell new submissions they don't need to wake the thread. When the threads notice congestion on a single device, they may decide to requeue the job and move on to other devices. This makes sure the running_pending flag is cleared before the job is requeued. It should help avoid IO stalls by making sure the task is woken up when new submissions come in. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
