os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error. glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill(). tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not pthreads. As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to terminate the process. Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer. To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

ZONE_CONGESTED should be a state of global memory reclaim. If not, a busy memcg sets this and give unnecessary throttoling in wait_iff_congested() against memory recalim in other contexts. This makes system performance bad. I'll think about "memcg is congested!" flag is required or not, later. But this fix is required first.

Fix switch initialization to ensure that all switches have default routing disabled. This guarantees that no unexpected RapidIO packets arrive to the default port set by reset and there is no default routing destination until it is properly configured by software. This update also unifies handling of unmapped destinations by tsi57x, IDT Gen1 and IDT Gen2 switches.

As Metze pointed out, commit 84cdf74e broke mapchars option: Commit "cifs: fix unaligned accesses in cifsConvertToUCS" (84cdf74e) does multiple steps in just one commit (moving the function and changing it without testing). put_unaligned_le16(temp, &target[j]); is never called for any codepoint the goes via the 'default' switch statement. As a result we put just zero (or maybe uninitialized) bytes into the target buffer. His proposed patch looks correct, but doesn't apply to the current head of the tree. This patch should also fix it.

After that commit, pci_hotplug_io_size is changed to additional_io_size from minium size. So it will not go through resource_size(res) != 0 path, and will not be reset. The root cause is: pci_bridge_check_ranges will set RESOURCE_IO flag for pci bridge, and later if children do not need IO resource. those bridge resources will not need to be allocated. but flags is still there. that will confuse the the pci_enable_bridges later. related code: static void assign_requested_resources_sorted(struct resource_list *head, struct resource_list_x *fail_head) { struct resource *res; struct resource_list *list; int idx; for (list = head->next; list; list = list->next) { res = list->res; idx = res - &list->dev->resource[0]; if (resource_size(res) && pci_assign_resource(list->dev, idx)) { ... reset_resource(res); } } } At last, We have to clear the flags in pbus_size_mem/io when requested size == 0 and !add_head. becasue this case it will not go through adjust_resources_sorted(). Just make size1 = size0 when !add_head. it will make flags get cleared. At the same time when requested size == 0, add_size != 0, will still have in head and add_list. because we do not clear the flags for it.

The first cpu which switches from periodic to oneshot mode switches also the broadcast device into oneshot mode. The broadcast device serves as a backup for per cpu timers which stop in deeper C-states. To avoid starvation of the cpus which might be in idle and depend on broadcast mode it marks the other cpus as broadcast active and sets the brodcast expiry value of those cpus to the next tick. The oneshot mode broadcast bit for the other cpus is sticky and gets only cleared when those cpus exit idle. If a cpu was not idle while the bit got set in consequence the bit prevents that the broadcast device is armed on behalf of that cpu when it enters idle for the first time after it switched to oneshot mode. In most cases that goes unnoticed as one of the other cpus has usually a timer pending which keeps the broadcast device armed with a short timeout. Now if the only cpu which has a short timer active has the bit set then the broadcast device will not be armed on behalf of that cpu and will fire way after the expected timer expiry. In the case of Christians bug report it took ~145 seconds which is about half of the wrap around time of HPET (the limit for that device) due to the fact that all other cpus had no timers armed which expired before the 145 seconds timeframe. The solution is simply to clear the broadcast active bit unconditionally when a cpu switches to oneshot mode after the first cpu switched the broadcast device over. It's not idle at that point otherwise it would not be executing that code. [ I fundamentally hate that broadcast crap. Why the heck thought some folks that when going into deep idle it's a brilliant concept to switch off the last device which brings the cpu back from that state? ] Thanks to Christian for providing all the valuable debug information!

During initialization of vmxnet3, the state of LRO gets out of sync with netdev->features. This leads to very poor TCP performance in a IP forwarding setup and is hitting many VMware users. Simplified call sequence: 1. vmxnet3_declare_features() initializes "adapter->lro" to true. 2. The kernel automatically disables LRO if IP forwarding is enabled, so vmxnet3_set_flags() gets called. This also updates netdev->features. 3. Now vmxnet3_setup_driver_shared() is called. "adapter->lro" is still set to true and LRO gets enabled again, even though netdev->features shows it's disabled. Fix it by updating "adapter->lro", too. The private vmxnet3 adapter flags are scheduled for removal in net-next, see commit a0d2730c "net: vmxnet3: convert to hw_features". Patch applies to 2.6.37 / 2.6.38 and 2.6.39-rc6. Please CC: comments.

Commit 747df225 ('sfc: Always map MCDI shared memory as uncacheable') introduced a separate mapping for the MCDI shared memory (MC_TREG_SMEM). This means we can no longer easily include it in the register dump. Since it is not particularly useful in debugging, substitute a recognisable dummy value.

We need to hold the dev->mode_config.mutex whilst detecting the output status. But we also need to drop it for the call into drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe(), which indirectly acquires the lock when attaching the fbcon. Failure to do so exposes a race with normal output probing. Detected by adding some warnings that the mutex is held to the backend detect routines: [ 17.772456] WARNING: at drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_crt.c:471 intel_crt_detect+0x3e/0x373 [i915]() [ 17.772458] Hardware name: Latitude E6400 [ 17.772460] Modules linked in: ....

FS_COW_FL and FS_NOCOW_FL were newly introduced to control per file COW in btrfs, but FS_NOCOW_FL is sufficient. The fact is we don't have corresponding BTRFS_INODE_COW flag. COW is default, and FS_NOCOW_FL can be used to switch off COW for a single file. If we mount btrfs with nodatacow, a newly created file will be set with the FS_NOCOW_FL flag. So to turn on COW for it, we can just clear the FS_NOCOW_FL flag. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

When a btrfs disk is created by mixed data & metadata option, it will have no pure data or pure metadata space info. In btrfs's for-linus branch, commit 78b1ea13838039cd88afdd62519b40b344d6c920 (Btrfs: fix OOPS of empty filesystem after balance) initializes space infos at the very beginning. The problem is this initialization does not take the mixed case into account, which will cause btrfs will easily get into ENOSPC in mixed case.

Shame on me! Commit b1dea800 "tmpfs: fix race between umount and writepage" fixed the advertized race, but introduced another: as even its comment makes clear, we cannot safely rely on a peek at list_empty() while holding no lock - until info->swapped is set, shmem_unuse_inode() may delete any formerly-swapped inode from the shmem_swaplist, which in this case would leave a swap area impossible to swapoff. Although I don't relish taking the mutex every time, I don't care much for the alternatives either; and at least the peek at list_empty() in shmem_evict_inode() (a hotter path since most inodes would never have been swapped) remains safe, because we already truncated the whole file.

This reverts commit 270dac35. The commits causes command timeouts on AC plug/unplug. It isn't yet clear why. As the commit was for a single rather obscure controller, revert the change for now. The problem was reported and bisected by Gu Rui in bug#34692. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34692 Also, reported by Rafael and Michael in the following thread. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1138771Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Gu Rui <chaos.proton@gmail.com> Reported-by: Rafael J.

This moves the if (num_registered_fb == FB_MAX) return -ENXIO; check _AFTER_ the call to do_remove_conflicting_framebuffers() as this would (now in a safe way) allow a native driver to replace the conflicting one even if all slots in registered_fb[] are taken. This also prevents unregistering a framebuffer that is no longer registered (vga16f will unregister at module unload time even if the frame buffer had been unregistered earlier due to being found conflicting).

When a register_framebuffer() call results in us removing old conflicting framebuffers, the new registration_lock doesn't protect that situation. And we can't just add the same locking to the function, because these functions call each other: register_framebuffer() calls remove_conflicting_framebuffers, which in turn calls unregister_framebuffer for any conflicting entry. In order to fix it, this just creates wrapper functions around all three functions and makes the versions that actually do the work be called "do_xxx()", leaving just the wrapper that gets the lock and calls the worker function. So the rule becomes simply that "do_xxxx()" has to be called with the lock held, and now do_register_framebuffer() can just call do_remove_conflicting_framebuffers(), and that in turn can call _do_unregister_framebuffer(), and there is no deadlock, and we can hold the registration lock over the whole sequence, fixing the races. It also makes error cases simpler, and fixes one situation where we would return from unregister_framebuffer() without releasing the lock, pointed out by Bruno Prémont.
