When channel_disable() is called, it disables per channel interrupts and waits until channels state becomes STATE_STALL, and then disables the channel. Now, if the DMA transfer is disabled while the channel is in STATE_NEXT we will not wait anything and disable the channel immediately. This seems to cause weird data corruption for example in audio transfers. Fix is to wait while we are in STATE_NEXT or STATE_ON and only then disable the channel.

Recent clean of i.MX devices registration changed the i2C bus number selected for our platform (Freescale start peripheral ID at 1, kernel now start it at 0 so i.MX27's i2c 1 is kernel's i2c 0). Without this fix, i2c is unusable on this platform.

Commit 14eff181 added proper detection for ARM11MPCore/Cortex-A9 instead of detecting them as ARMv7. However, it was missing the HWCAP_TLS flags. HWCAP_TLS is needed if support for earlier ARMv6 is compiled into the same kernel. Without HWCAP_TLS flags the userspace won't work unless nosmp is specified: Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

According to Atmel, their 926T processors (AT91 post RM9200) requires 'Wait for Interrupt' mode be entered right after disabling the processor clock in order to minimise current consumption when idle, so do both provided we're not running on a 920T (an RM9200). Furthermore, get rid of the #ifndef CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, since arch_idle() can be turned off completely with the kernel parameter 'nohlt'.

On the r2p0, r2p1 and r2p2 versions of the Cortex-A9, data corruption can occur under very rare conditions due to a store buffer optimisation.

flush_icache_range() is given virtual addresses to describe the region. It deals with these by attempting to translate them through the current set of page tables. This is fine for userspace memory and vmalloc()'d areas as they are governed by page tables. However, since the regions above 0x80000000 aren't translated through the page tables by the MMU, the kernel doesn't bother to set up page tables for them (see paging_init()). This means flush_icache_range() as it stands cannot be used to flush regions of the VM area between 0x80000000 and 0x9fffffff where the kernel resides if the data cache is operating in WriteBack mode. To fix this, make flush_icache_range() first check for addresses in the upper half of VM space and deal with them appropriately, before dealing with any range in the page table mapped area. Ordinarily, this is not a problem, but it has the capacity to make kprobes and kgdb malfunction. It should not affect gdbstub, signal frame setup or module loading as gdb has its own flush functions, and the others take place in the page table mapped area only.

If the original list is a POT in length, the first callback from line 73 will pass a==b both pointing to the original list_head. This is dangerous because the 'list_sort()' user can use 'container_of()' and accesses the "containing" object, which does not necessary exist for the list head. So the user can access RAM which does not belong to him. If this is a write access, we can end up with memory corruption.

The semctl syscall has several code paths that lead to the leakage of uninitialized kernel stack memory (namely the IPC_INFO, SEM_INFO, IPC_STAT, and SEM_STAT commands) during the use of the older, obsolete version of the semid_ds struct. The copy_semid_to_user() function declares a semid_ds struct on the stack and copies it back to the user without initializing or zeroing the "sem_base", "sem_pending", "sem_pending_last", and "undo" pointers, allowing the leakage of 16 bytes of kernel stack memory. The code is still reachable on 32-bit systems - when calling semctl() newer glibc's automatically OR the IPC command with the IPC_64 flag, but invoking the syscall directly allows users to use the older versions of the struct.

The kfifo_dma family of functions use sg_mark_end() on the last element in their scatterlist. This forces use of a fresh scatterlist for each DMA operation, which makes recycling a single scatterlist impossible. Change the behavior of the kfifo_dma functions to match the usage of the dma_map_sg function. This means that users must respect the returned nents value. The sample code is updated to reflect the change. This bug is trivial to cause: call kfifo_dma_in_prepare() such that it prepares a scatterlist with a single entry comprising the whole fifo. This is the case when you map the entirety of a newly created empty fifo. This causes the setup_sgl() function to mark the first scatterlist entry as the end of the chain, no matter what comes after it. Afterwards, add and remove some data from the fifo such that another call to kfifo_dma_in_prepare() will create two scatterlist entries. It returns nents=2. However, due to the previous sg_mark_end() call, sg_is_last() will now return true for the first scatterlist element. This causes the sample code to print a single scatterlist element when it should print two. By removing the call to sg_mark_end(), we make the API as similar as possible to the DMA mapping API. All users are required to respect the returned nents. Signed-off-by: Ira W.

cifs_reconnect_tcon is called from smb_init. After a successful reconnect, cifs_reconnect_tcon will call reset_cifs_unix_caps. That function will, in turn call CIFSSMBQFSUnixInfo and CIFSSMBSetFSUnixInfo. Those functions also call smb_init. It's possible for the session and tcon reconnect to succeed, and then for another cifs_reconnect to occur before CIFSSMBQFSUnixInfo or CIFSSMBSetFSUnixInfo to be called. That'll cause those functions to call smb_init and cifs_reconnect_tcon again, ad infinitum... Break the infinite recursion by having those functions use a new smb_init variant that doesn't attempt to perform a reconnect.

We add an option not to enable fbdev, this option is off (0) by default. Not enabling fbdev at load time makes it possible to co-operate with vga16fb and vga text mode when VT switching. However, if 3D resources are active when VT switching, we're currently not able to switch over to vga, due to device limitations. This fixes a bug where we previously lost 3D state during VT switch.

In order to be fully threadsafe we need to check that the drm_gem_object refcount is still 0 after acquiring the mutex in order to call the free function. Otherwise, we may encounter scenarios like: Thread A: Thread B: drm_gem_close unreference_unlocked kref_put mutex_lock ... i915_gem_evict ... kref_get -> BUG ... i915_gem_unbind ... kref_put ... i915_gem_object_free ... mutex_unlock mutex_lock i915_gem_object_free -> BUG i915_gem_object_unbind kfree mutex_unlock Note that no driver is currently using the free_unlocked vfunc and it is scheduled for removal, hasten that process.

Avoid TLB flush IPIs for the cores in deeper c-states by voluntary leave_mm() before entering into that state. CPUs tend to flush TLB in those c-states anyways. acpi_idle does this with C3-type states, but it was not caried over when intel_idle was introduced. intel_idle can apply it to C-states in addition to those that ACPI might export as C3...

There were lots of places being inconsistent since handle count looked like a kref but it really wasn't. Fix this my just making handle count an atomic on the object, and have it increase the normal object kref. Now i915/radeon/nouveau drivers can drop the normal reference on userspace object creation, and have the handle hold it. This patch fixes a memory leak or corruption on unload, because the driver had no way of knowing if a handle had been actually added for this object, and the fbcon object needed to know this to clean itself up properly.
