Commit 93aae17a ("sr: implement sr_check_events()") replaced the media_changed op with the check_events op in drivers/scsi/sr.c All users that check for the CDC_MEDIA_CHANGED capbility try both the check_events op and the media_changed op, but register_cdrom() was requiring media_changed. This patch fixes the capability checking. The cdrom_select_disc ioctl is also using the two operations, so they should be required for CDC_SELECT_DISC too.

Commit 7667aa06 added logic to wait for the last queue of the group to become busy (have at least one request), so that the group does not lose out for not being continuously backlogged. The commit did not check for the condition that the last queue already has some requests. As a result, if the queue already has requests, wait_busy is set. Later on, cfq_select_queue() checks the flag, and decides that since the queue has a request now and wait_busy is set, the queue is expired. This results in early expiration of the queue. This patch fixes the problem by adding a check to see if queue already has requests. If it does, wait_busy is not set. As a result, time slices do not expire early. The queues with more than one request are usually buffered writers. Testing shows improvement in isolation between buffered writers.

The outvq needs to be woken up on host notifications so that buffers consumed by the host can be reclaimed, outvq freed, and application writes may proceed again.

Following symptoms were observed: 1. After raid0->raid10 takeover operation we have array with 2 missing disks. When we add disk for rebuild, recovery process starts as expected but it does not finish- it stops at about 90%, md126_resync process hangs in "D" state. 2. Similar behavior is when we have mounted raid0 array and we execute takeover to raid10. After this when we try to unmount array- it causes process umount hangs in "D" In scenarios above processes hang at the same function- wait_barrier in raid10.c. Process waits in macro "wait_event_lock_irq" until the "!conf->barrier" condition will be true. In scenarios above it never happens. Reason was that at the end of level_store, after calling pers->run, we call mddev_resume. This calls pers->quiesce(mddev, 0) with RAID10, that calls lower_barrier. However raise_barrier hadn't been called on that 'conf' yet, so conf->barrier becomes negative, which is bad. This patch introduces setting conf->barrier=1 after takeover operation. It prevents to become barrier negative after call lower_barrier(). Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Wojcik <krzysztof.wojcik@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md_make_request was calling bio_sectors() for part_stat_add after it was calling the make_request function. This is bad because the make_request function can free the bio and because the bi_size field can change around. The fix here was suggested by Jens Axboe. It saves the sector count before the make_request call. I hit this with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC turned on while trying to break his pretty fusionio card.

In prepare_kernel_cred() since 2.6.29, put_cred(new) is called without assigning new->usage when security_prepare_creds() returned an error. As a result, memory for new and refcount for new->{user,group_info,tgcred} are leaked because put_cred(new) won't call __put_cred() unless old->usage == 1. Fix these leaks by assigning new->usage (and new->subscribers which was added in 2.6.32) before calling security_prepare_creds().

In cred_alloc_blank() since 2.6.32, abort_creds(new) is called with new->security == NULL and new->magic == 0 when security_cred_alloc_blank() returns an error. As a result, BUG() will be triggered if SELinux is enabled or CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS=y. If CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS=y, BUG() is called from __invalid_creds() because cred->magic == 0. Failing that, BUG() is called from selinux_cred_free() because selinux_cred_free() is not expecting cred->security == NULL. This does not affect smack_cred_free(), tomoyo_cred_free() or apparmor_cred_free(). Fix these bugs by (1) Set new->magic before calling security_cred_alloc_blank(). (2) Handle null cred->security in creds_are_invalid() and selinux_cred_free().

The AACI TRM requires the MAINCR enable bit to be held zero for two bitclk cycles plus three apb_pclk cycles. Use a delay of 1us to ensure this. Ensure that writes to MAINCR to change the addressed codec only happen when required, and that they take effect in a similar manner to the above, otherwise we seem to occasionally have stuck slot busy bits.

We reserve lowmem for the things that need it, like the ACPI wakeup code, way early to guarantee availability. This happens before we set up the proper pagetables, so set_memory_x() has no effect. Until we have a better solution, use an initcall to mark the wakeup code executable. Originally-by: Matthieu Castet <castet.matthieu@free.fr> Signed-off-by: H.

Spinlocks on shared processor partitions use H_YIELD to notify the hypervisor we are waiting on another virtual CPU. Unfortunately this means the hcall tracepoints can recurse.

VPHN supports up to 8 distance fields but the number of entries in ibm,associativity-reference-points signifies how many are in use. Don't look at all the VPHN counts, only distance_ref_points_depth worth. Since we already cap our distance metrics at MAX_DISTANCE_REF_POINTS, use that to size the VPHN arrays and add a BUILD_BUG_ON to avoid it growing larger than the VPHN maximum of 8.

Some of those functions try to adjust the CPU features, for example to remove NAP support on some revisions. However, they seem to use r5 as an index into the CPU table entry, which might have been right a long time ago but no longer is. r4 is the right register to use. This probably caused some off behaviours on some PowerMac variants using 750cx or 7455 processor revisions. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> CC: stable@kernel.org

When calling setup_cpu() on 64-bit, we pass a pointer to the cputable entry we have found. This used to be fine when cur_cpu_spec was a pointer to that entry, but nowadays, we copy the entry into a separate variable, and we do so before we call the setup_cpu() callback. That means that any attempt by that callback at patching the CPU table entry (to adjust CPU features for example) will patch the wrong table.
