The ia64 function "thread_matches()" has no users since commit e868a55c ("[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()"). Remove it. This allows us to make ptrace_check_attach() static to kernel/ptrace.c, which is good since we'll need to change the semantics of it and fix up all the callers.

Add support for the UART device present in Broadcom TruManage capable NetXtreme chips (ie: 5761m 5762, and 5725). This implementation has a hidden transmit FIFO, so running in single-byte interrupt mode results in too many interrupts. The UART_CAP_HFIFO capability was added to track this. It continues to reload the THR as long as the THRE and TSRE bits are set in the LSR up to a specified limit (1024 is used here).

Commit bbb63c51 (drivers:tty:fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling) changed the default return value from tty ioctl to be ENOTTY and not EINVAL. This is appropriate. But in case of TIOCGPTN for the old BSD ptys glibc started failing because it expects EINVAL to be returned. Only then it continues to obtain the pts name the other way around. So fix this case by explicit return of EINVAL in this case.

vt6656 has several headers that use the #pragma pack(1) directive to enable structure packing, but never disable it. The layout of structures defined in other headers can then depend on which order the various headers are included in, breaking the One Definition Rule. In practice this resulted in crashes on x86_64 until the order of header inclusion was changed for some files in commit 11d404cb ('staging: vt6656: fix headers and add cfg80211.'). But we need a proper fix that won't be affected by future changes to the order of inclusion. This removes the #pragma pack(1) directives and adds __packed to the structure definitions for which packing appears to have been intended.

Dave Jones hit this assert when doing a compile on recent git, with CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG enabled: XFS: Assertion failed: (char *)dup - (char *)hdr == be16_to_cpu(*xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup)), file: fs/xfs/xfs_dir2_data.c, line: 828 Upon further digging, the tag found by xfs_dir2_data_unused_tag_p(dup) contained "2" and not the proper offset, and I found that this value was changed after the memmoves under "Use a stale leaf for our new entry." in xfs_dir2_block_addname(), i.e. memmove(&blp[mid + 1], &blp[mid], (highstale - mid) * sizeof(*blp)); overwrote it. What has happened is that the previous call to xfs_dir2_block_compact() has rearranged things; it changes btp->count as well as the blp array. So after we make that call, we must recalculate the proper pointer to the leaf entries by making another call to xfs_dir2_block_leaf_p(). Dave provided a metadump image which led to a simple reproducer (create a particular filename in the affected directory) and this resolves the testcase as well as the bug on his live system. Thanks also to dchinner for looking at this one with me.

Commits starting at 77c1a08f introduced a multiple segment support to xfs_buf. xfs_trans_buf_item_match() could not find a multi-segment buffer in the transaction because it was looking at the single segment block number rather than the multi-segment b_maps[0].bm.bn. This results on a recursive buffer lock that can never be satisfied. This patch: 1) Changed the remaining b_map accesses to be b_maps[0] accesses. 2) Renames the single segment b_map structure to __b_map to avoid future confusion.

This fixes CVE-2013-0190 / XSA-40 There has been an error on the xen_failsafe_callback path for failed iret, which causes the stack pointer to be wrong when entering the iret_exc error path. This can result in the kernel crashing. In the classic kernel case, the relevant code looked a little like: popl %eax # Error code from hypervisor jz 5f addl $16,%esp jmp iret_exc # Hypervisor said iret fault 5: addl $16,%esp # Hypervisor said segment selector fault Here, there are two identical addls on either option of a branch which appears to have been optimised by hoisting it above the jz, and converting it to an lea, which leaves the flags register unaffected. In the PVOPS case, the code looks like: popl_cfi %eax # Error from the hypervisor lea 16(%esp),%esp # Add $16 before choosing fault path CFI_ADJUST_CFA_OFFSET -16 jz 5f addl $16,%esp # Incorrectly adjust %esp again jmp iret_exc It is possible unprivileged userspace applications to cause this behaviour, for example by loading an LDT code selector, then changing the code selector to be not-present. At this point, there is a race condition where it is possible for the hypervisor to return back to userspace from an interrupt, fault on its own iret, and inject a failsafe_callback into the kernel. This bug has been present since the introduction of Xen PVOPS support in commit 5ead97c8 (xen: Core Xen implementation), in 2.6.23.

In commit 281dc5c5 ("Give up on pushing CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE") we already changed the actual default value, but the help-text still suggested 'y'. Fix the help text too, for all the same reasons. Sadly, -Os keeps on generating some very suboptimal code for certain cases, to the point where any I$ miss upside is swamped by the downside. The main ones are: - using "rep movsb" for memcpy, even on CPU's where that is horrendously bad for performance. - not honoring branch prediction information, so any I$ footprint you win from smaller code, you lose from less code density in the I$. - using divide instructions when that is very expensive.

Commit 1b963c81 ("lockdep, rwsem: provide down_write_nest_lock()") contains a bug in a codepath when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is disabled, which causes down_read() to be called instead of down_write() by mistake on such configurations. Fix that.
