Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.14-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt: "In the past, I've had lots of reports about trace events not working. Developers would say they put a trace_printk() before and after the trace event but when they enable it (and the trace event said it was enabled) they would see the trace_printks but not the trace event. I was not able to reproduce this, but that's because I wasn't looking at the right location. Recently, another bug came up that showed the issue. If your kernel supports signed modules but allows for non-signed modules to be loaded, then when one is, the kernel will silently set the MODULE_FORCED taint on the module. Although, this taint happens without the need for insmod --force or anything of the kind, it labels the module with that taint anyway. If this tainted module has tracepoints, the tracepoints will be ignored because of the MODULE_FORCED taint. But no error message will be displayed. Worse yet, the event infrastructure will still be created letting users enable the trace event represented by the tracepoint, although that event will never actually be enabled. This is because the tracepoint infrastructure allows for non-existing tracepoints to be enabled for new modules to arrive and have their tracepoints set. Although there are several things wrong with the above, this change only addresses the creation of the trace event files for tracepoints that are not created when a module is loaded and is tainted. This change will print an error message about the module being tainted and not the trace events will not be created, and it does not create the trace event infrastructure" * tag 'trace-fixes-v3.14-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Do not add event files for modules that fail tracepoints

Don Zickus reports: A customer generated an external NMI using their iLO to test kdump worked. Unfortunately, the machine hung. Disabling the nmi_watchdog made things work. I speculated the external NMI fired, caused the machine to panic (as expected) and the perf NMI from the watchdog came in and was latched. My guess was this somehow caused the hang. ---- It appears that the latched NMI stays latched until the early page table generation on 64 bits, which causes exceptions to happen which end in IRET, which re-enable NMI. Therefore, ignore NMIs that come in during early execution, until we have proper exception handling.

Commit 017f161a (ARM: 7877/1: use built-in byte swap function) added bswapsdi2.{o,S} to arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile, but didn't update the .gitignore. Thus after a a build git status shows bswapsdi2.S as a new file, which is a little annoying.

Due to a problem in the MFD Kconfig it was not possible to compile the UCB battery driver for the Collie SA1100 system, in turn making it impossible to compile in the battery driver. (See patch "mfd: include all drivers in subsystem menu".) After fixing the MFD Kconfig (separate patch) a compile error appears in the Collie battery driver due to the <mach/collie.h> implicitly requiring <mach/hardware.h> through <linux/gpio.h> via <mach/gpio.h> prior to commit 40ca061b "ARM: 7841/1: sa1100: remove complex GPIO interface".

With noMMU, CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET was not being set correctly. As there's no MMU, PAGE_OFFSET should be equal to PHYS_OFFSET in all cases. This commit makes that explicit. Since we do this, we don't need to mess around in asm/memory.h with ifdefs to sort this out, so let's get rid of that, and there's no point offering the "Memory split" option for noMMU as that's meaningless there.

This has been a relatively long-standing issue that wasn't nailed down until Teng-Feng Yang's meticulous bug report to dm-devel on 3/7/2014, see: http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2014-March/msg00021.html From that report: "When decreasing the reference count of a metadata block with its reference count equals 3, we will call dm_btree_remove() to remove this enrty from the B+tree which keeps the reference count info in metadata device. The B+tree will try to rebalance the entry of the child nodes in each node it traversed, and the rebalance process contains the following steps. (1) Finding the corresponding children in current node (shadow_current(s)) (2) Shadow the children block (issue BOP_INC) (3) redistribute keys among children, and free children if necessary (issue BOP_DEC) Since the update of a metadata block's reference count could be recursive, we will stash these reference count update operations in smm->uncommitted and then process them in a FILO fashion. The problem is that step(3) could free the children which is created in step(2), so the BOP_DEC issued in step(3) will be carried out before the BOP_INC issued in step(2) since these BOPs will be processed in FILO fashion. Once the BOP_DEC from step(3) tries to decrease the reference count of newly shadow block, it will report failure for its reference equals 0 before decreasing. It looks like we can solve this issue by processing these BOPs in a FIFO fashion instead of FILO." Commit 5b564d80 ("dm space map: disallow decrementing a reference count below zero") changed the code to report an error for this temporary refcount decrement below zero. So what was previously a harmless invalid refcount became a hard failure due to the new error path: device-mapper: space map common: unable to decrement a reference count below 0 device-mapper: thin: 253:6: dm_thin_insert_block() failed: error = -22 device-mapper: thin: 253:6: switching pool to read-only mode This bug is in dm persistent-data code that is common to the DM thin and cache targets. So any users of those targets should apply this fix. Fix this by applying recursive space map operations in FIFO order rather than FILO.

When we fork/clone we currently don't copy any of the TM state to the new thread. This results in a TM bad thing (program check) when the new process is switched in as the kernel does a tmrechkpt with TEXASR FS not set. Also, since R1 is from userspace, we trigger the bad kernel stack pointer detection. So we end up with something like this: Bad kernel stack pointer 0 at c0000000000404fc cpu 0x2: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c00000003ffefd40] pc: c0000000000404fc: restore_gprs+0xc0/0x148 lr: 0000000000000000 sp: 0 msr: 9000000100201030 current = 0xc000001dd1417c30 paca = 0xc00000000fe00800 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 0, comm = swapper/2 WARNING: exception is not recoverable, can't continue The below fixes this by flushing the TM state before we copy the task_struct to the clone. To do this we go through the tmreclaim patch, which removes the checkpointed registers from the CPU and transitions the CPU out of TM suspend mode. Hence we need to call tmrechkpt after to restore the checkpointed state and the TM mode for the current task. To make this fail from userspace is simply: tbegin li r0, 2 sc <boom> Kudos to Adhemerval Zanella Neto for finding this.

Without this, a bo may get created in the cpu-inaccessible vram. Before the CP engines get setup, all copies are done via cpu memcpy. This means that the cpu tries to read from inaccessible memory, fails, and the radeon module proceeds to disable acceleration.

i) by the time DM core calls the postsuspend hook the dm_noflush flag has been cleared. So the old thin_postsuspend did nothing. We need to use the presuspend hook instead. ii) There was a race between bios leaving DM core and arriving in the deferred queue. thin_presuspend now sets a 'requeue' flag causing all bios destined for that thin to be requeued back to DM core. Then it requeues all held IO, and all IO on the deferred queue (destined for that thin). Finally postsuspend clears the 'requeue' flag.

Ideally a thin pool would never run out of data space; the low water mark would trigger userland to extend the pool before we completely run out of space. However, many small random IOs to unprovisioned space can consume data space at an alarming rate. Adjust your low water mark if you're frequently seeing "out-of-data-space" mode. Before this fix, if data space ran out the pool would be put in PM_READ_ONLY mode which also aborted the pool's current metadata transaction (data loss for any changes in the transaction). This had a side-effect of needlessly compromising data consistency. And retry of queued unserviceable bios, once the data pool was resized, could initiate changes to potentially inconsistent pool metadata. Now when the pool's data space is exhausted transition to a new pool mode (PM_OUT_OF_DATA_SPACE) that allows metadata to be changed but data may not be allocated. This allows users to remove thin volumes or discard data to recover data space. The pool is no longer put in PM_READ_ONLY mode in response to the pool running out of data space. And PM_READ_ONLY mode no longer aborts the pool's current metadata transaction. Also, set_pool_mode() will now notify userspace when the pool mode is changed.

If a thin metadata operation fails the current transaction will abort, whereby causing potential for IO layers up the stack (e.g. filesystems) to have data loss. As such, set THIN_METADATA_NEEDS_CHECK_FLAG in the thin metadata's superblock which: 1) requires the user verify the thin metadata is consistent (e.g. use thin_check, etc) 2) suggests the user verify the thin data is consistent (e.g. use fsck) The only way to clear the superblock's THIN_METADATA_NEEDS_CHECK_FLAG is to run thin_repair. On metadata operation failure: abort current metadata transaction, set pool in read-only mode, and now set the needs_check flag. As part of this change, constraints are introduced or relaxed: * don't allow a pool to transition to write mode if needs_check is set * don't allow data or metadata space to be resized if needs_check is set * if a thin pool's metadata space is exhausted: the kernel will now force the user to take the pool offline for repair before the kernel will allow the metadata space to be extended. Also, update Documentation to include information about when the thin provisioning target commits metadata, how it handles metadata failures and running out of space.
