Since commit 6a1c53124aa1 the user writeable TLS register was zeroed to
prevent it from being used as a covert channel between two tasks.
There are more and more applications coming to Windows RT,
Wine could support them, but mostly they expect to have
the thread environment block (TEB) in TPIDRURW.
This patch preserves that register per thread instead of clearing it.
Unlike the TPIDRURO, which is already switched, the TPIDRURW
can be updated from userspace so needs careful treatment in the case that we
modify TPIDRURW and call fork(). To avoid this we must always read
TPIDRURW in copy_thread.

ARM: 7746/1: mm: lazy cache flushing on non-mapped pages
Currently flush_dcache_page() thinks pages as non-mapped if
mapping_mapped(mapping) return false. This approach is very
coase:
- mmap on part of file may cause all pages backed on
the file being thought as mmaped
- file-backed pages aren't mapped into user space actually
if the memory mmaped on the file isn't accessed
This patch uses page_mapped() to decide if the page has been
mapped.
From the attached test code, I find there is much performance
improvement(>25%) when accessing page caches via read under this
situations, so memcpy benefits a lot from not flushing cache
under this situation.

It's known to be causing problems (very low performance) on at least one
router (even WL1251_ACX_BET_DISABLE call is doing bad things there).
I could not see measurable power usage improvement with this, so
disable those calls.
Most of commands are complete on second read from status register, so
it's unwise to sleep after first try, as sleep may take much longer than
desired 1ms (which is actually already too much waiting for most commands).
So use udelay() for first several tries, and only sleep if command takes
longer, like wl1271+ driver does. This shortens typical powersave setup
time from 50+ ms to <1 ms.
This "Functional Inband error" for "Agent: sDMA Rd IA" (bit19 of
L3_SI_FLAG_STATUS_0) happens randomly while both recording+playing is
active, perhaps when it's being paused/resumed?
Linux-SWAT reported that system keeps functioning if the error is
ignored, and Neelix reported recording breaks until reinitialized,
but this is still much better than bringing the system down.
Patch for 3.0-stable. Function find_early_table_space removed upstream.
Fixes panic in alloc_low_page due to pgt_buf overflow during
init_memory_mapping.
find_early_table_space sizes pgt_buf based upon the size of the
memory being mapped, but it does not take into account the alignment
of the memory. When the region being mapped spans a 512GB (PGDIR_SIZE)
alignment, a panic from alloc_low_pages occurs.
kernel_physical_mapping_init takes into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment.
This causes an extra call to alloc_low_page to be made. This extra call
isn't accounted for by find_early_table_space and causes a kernel panic.
Change is to take into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment in find_early_table_space.

Device tree node /rtas/ibm,associativity-reference-points would

form1 encoding detected by ibm,architecture-vec-5 property.
All modern systems use form1 and current kernel code is correct.
However, on older systems with form0 encoding, the numa distance
will get hard coded as LOCAL_DISTANCE for all nodes. This causes
task scheduling anomaly since scheduler will skip building numa
level domain (topmost domain with all cpus) if all numa distances
are same. (value of 'level' in sched_init_numa() will remain 0)

The routine to query the base of stolen memory was using the wrong
registers and the wrong encodings on virtually every platform.
It was not until the G33 refresh, that a PCI config register was
introduced that explicitly said where the stolen memory was. Prior to
865G there was not even a register that said where the end of usable
low memory was and where the stolen memory began (or ended depending
upon chipset). Before then, one has to look at the BIOS memory maps to
find the Top of Memory. Alas that is not exported by arch/x86 and so we
have to resort to disabling stolen memory on gen2 for the time being.
Then SandyBridge enlarged the PCI register to a full 32-bits and change
the encoding of the address, so even though we happened to be querying
the right register, we read the wrong bits and ended up using address 0
for our stolen data, i.e. notably FBC.

As reported by Dave Kleikamp, when we emit cross calls to do batched
TLB flush processing we have a race because we do not synchronize on
the sibling cpus completing the cross call.
So meanwhile the TLB batch can be reset (tb->tlb_nr set to zero, etc.)
and either flushes are missed or flushes will flush the wrong
addresses.
Fix this by using generic infrastructure to synchonize on the
completion of the cross call.
This first required getting the flush_tlb_pending() call out from
switch_to() which operates with locks held and interrupts disabled.
The problem is that smp_call_function_many() cannot be invoked with
IRQs disabled and this is explicitly checked for with WARN_ON_ONCE().
We get the batch processing outside of locked IRQ disabled sections by
using some ideas from the powerpc port. Namely, we only batch inside
of arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode() calls. If we're not in such a
region, we flush TLBs synchronously.
1) Get rid of xcall_flush_tlb_pending and per-cpu type
implementations.
a) Add 'active' member to struct tlb_batch
b) Define __HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE
c) Set 'active' in arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode()
d) Run batch and clear 'active' in arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode()
e) Check 'active' in tlb_batch_add_one() and do a synchronous
flush if it's clear.
4) Add infrastructure for synchronous TLB page flushes.
a) Implement __flush_tlb_page and per-cpu variants, patch
as needed.
b) Likewise for xcall_flush_tlb_page.
c) Implement smp_flush_tlb_page() to invoke the cross-call.
d) Wire up global_flush_tlb_page() to the right routine based
upon CONFIG_SMP
5) It turns out that singleton batches are very common, 2 out of every
3 batch flushes have only a single entry in them.
The batch flush waiting is very expensive, both because of the poll
on sibling cpu completeion, as well as because passing the tlb batch
pointer to the sibling cpus invokes a shared memory dereference.
Therefore, in flush_tlb_pending(), if there is only one entry in
the batch perform a completely asynchronous global_flush_tlb_page()
instead.

Tom Parkin noticed crashes in UDP stack and provided a patch,
but further analysis permitted us to pinpoint the root cause.
Before queueing a packet into a frag list, we must drop its dst,
as this dst has limited lifetime (RCU protected)
When/if a packet is finally reassembled, we use the dst of the very
last skb, still protected by RCU and valid, as the dst of the
reassembled packet.
Use same logic in IPv6, as there is no need to hold dst references.

Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code
to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary.
nf_reset() is used in the following cases:
- when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to
release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while
the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point.
- when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue
tracing these packets after IPsec processing.
- when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on
that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not
used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should
be traced after that, however we've always done that.
- when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the
packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases
where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the
original patch intended to fix.
Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to
fix this properly.

It was reported that the following LSB test case failed
https://lsbbugs.linuxfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=2144 because we
were not coallescing unix stream messages when the application was
expecting us to.
The problem was that the first send was before the socket was accepted
and thus sock->sk_socket was NULL in maybe_add_creds, and the second
send after the socket was accepted had a non-NULL value for sk->socket
and thus we could tell the credentials were not needed so we did not
bother.
The unnecessary credentials on the first message cause
unix_stream_recvmsg to start verifying that all messages had the same
credentials before coallescing and then the coallescing failed because
the second message had no credentials.
Ignoring credentials when we don't care in unix_stream_recvmsg fixes a
long standing pessimization which would fail to coallesce messages when
reading from a unix stream socket if the senders were different even if
we did not care about their credentials.
I have tested this and verified that the in the LSB test case mentioned
above that the messages do coallesce now, while the were failing to
coallesce without this change.

in these lower devices, because "synced" is treated as a

IPv6 Routing table becomes broken once we do ifdown, ifup of the loopback(lo)
interface. After down-up, routes of other interface's IPv6 addresses through
'lo' are lost.
IPv6 addresses assigned to all interfaces are routed through 'lo' for internal
communication. Once 'lo' is down, those routing entries are removed from routing
table. But those removed entries are not being re-created properly when 'lo' is
brought up. So IPv6 addresses of other interfaces becomes unreachable from the
same machine. Also this breaks communication with other machines because of
NDISC packet processing failure.
This patch fixes this issue by reading all interface's IPv6 addresses and adding
them to IPv6 routing table while bringing up 'lo'.

'mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm->reserved_vm counter'] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
Various drivers end up replicating the code to mmap() their memory
buffers into user space, and our core memory remapping function may be
very flexible but it is unnecessarily complicated for the common cases
to use.
Our internal VM uses pfn's ("page frame numbers") which simplifies
things for the VM, and allows us to pass physical addresses around in a
denser and more efficient format than passing a "phys_addr_t" around,
and having to shift it up and down by the page size. But it just means
that drivers end up doing that shifting instead at the interface level.
It also means that drivers end up mucking around with internal VM things
like the vma details (vm_pgoff, vm_start/end) way more than they really
need to.
So this just exports a function to map a certain physical memory range
into user space (using a phys_addr_t based interface that is much more
natural for a driver) and hides all the complexity from the driver.
Some drivers will still end up tweaking the vm_page_prot details for
things like prefetching or cacheability etc, but that's actually
relevant to the driver, rather than caring about what the page offset of
the mapping is into the particular IO memory region.
Commit b4cbb197c7e7 ("vm: add vm_iomap_memory() helper function") added
a helper function wrapper around io_remap_pfn_range(), and every other
architecture defined it in <asm/pgtable.h>.
The s390 choice of <asm/io.h> may make sense, but is not very convenient
for this case, and gratuitous differences like that cause unexpected errors like this:
mm/memory.c: In function 'vm_iomap_memory':
mm/memory.c:2439:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'io_remap_pfn_range' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
Glory be the kbuild test robot who noticed this, bisected it, and

We first tried to avoid updating atime/mtime entirely (commit b0de59b5733d: "TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write"), and then
limited it to only update it occasionally (commit 37b7f3c76595: "TTY:
fix atime/mtime regression"), but it turns out that this was both
insufficient and overkill.
It was insufficient because we let people attach to the shared ptmx node
to see activity without even reading atime/mtime, and it was overkill
because the "only once a minute" means that you can't really tell an
idle person from an active one with 'w'.
So this tries to fix the problem properly. It marks the shared ptmx
node as un-notifiable, and it lowers the "only once a minute" to a few
seconds instead - still long enough that you can't time individual
keystrokes, but short enough that you can tell whether somebody is
active or not.

select_parent() populates the dispose list with dentries which
shrink_dentry_list() then deletes. select_parent() carefully uses
need_resched() to avoid doing too much work at once. But neither
shrink_dcache_parent() nor its called functions call cond_resched(). So
once need_resched() is set select_parent() will return single dentry
dispose list which is then deleted by shrink_dentry_list(). This is
inefficient when there are a lot of dentry to process. This can cause
softlockup and hurts interactivity on non preemptable kernels.
This change adds cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent(). The benefit
of this is that need_resched() is quickly cleared so that future calls
to select_parent() are able to efficiently return a big batch of dentry.
These additional cond_resched() do not seem to impact performance, at
least for the workload below.
Here is a program which can cause soft lockup if other system activity
sets need_resched().

There is a kernel memory leak observed when the proc file
/proc/fs/fscache/stats is read.
The reason is that in fscache_stats_open, single_open is called and the
respective release function is not called during release. Hence fix
with correct release function - single_release().
In case a machine supports memory hotplug all active memory increments
present at IPL time have been initialized with a "usecount" of 1.
This is wrong if the memory increment size is larger than the memory
section size of the memory hotplug code. If that is the case the
usecount must be initialized with the number of memory sections that
fit into one memory increment.
Otherwise it is possible to put a memory increment into standby state
even if there are still active sections.
Afterwards addressing exceptions might happen which cause the kernel
to panic.
However even worse, if a memory increment was put into standby state
and afterwards into active state again, it's contents would have been
zeroed, leading to memory corruption.
This was only an issue for machines that support standby memory and
have at least 256GB memory.
This is broken since commit fdb1bb15 "[S390] sclp/memory hotplug: fix
initial usecount of increments".

In __after_prom_start we copy the kernel down to zero in two calls to
copy_and_flush. After the first call (copy from 0 to copy_to_here:)
we jump to the newly copied code soon after.
Unfortunately there's no isync between the copy of this code and the
jump to it. Hence it's possible that stale instructions could still be
in the icache or pipeline before we branch to it.
We've seen this on real machines and it's results in no console output
after:

returning from prom_init
The below adds an isync to ensure that the copy and flushing has
completed before any branching to the new instructions occurs.

Previously, the ixgbe_msix_other was writing the full 32bits of the set
interrupts, instead of only the ones which the ixgbe_msix_other is
handling. This resulted in a loss of performance when the X540's PPS feature is
enabled due to sometimes clearing queue interrupts which resulted in the driver
not getting the interrupt for cleaning the q_vector rings often enough. The fix
is to simply mask the lower 16bits off so that this handler does not write them
in the EICR, which causes them to remain high and be properly handled by the
clean_rings interrupt routine as normal.

Vitaliy reported that a per cpu HPET timer interrupt crashes the
system during hibernation. What happens is that the per cpu HPET timer
gets shut down when the nonboot cpus are stopped. When the nonboot
cpus are onlined again the HPET code sets up the MSI interrupt which
fires before the clock event device is registered. The event handler
is still set to hrtimer_interrupt, which then crashes the machine due
to highres mode not being active.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=700333
There is no real good way to avoid that in the HPET code. The HPET
code alrady has a mechanism to detect spurious interrupts when event
handler == NULL for a similar reason.
We can handle that in the clockevent/tick layer and replace the
previous functional handler with a dummy handler like we do in
tick_setup_new_device().
The original clockevents code did this in clockevents_exchange_device(),
but that got removed by commit 7c1e76897 (clockevents: prevent
clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noop) which forgot to fix
it up in tick_shutdown(). Same issue with the broadcast device.

The USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT class-specific endpoint descriptor is usually
stuffed directly after the standard USB endpoint descriptor, and this is
where the driver currently expects it to be.
There are, however, devices in the wild that have it the other way
around in their descriptor sets, so the USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT comes
*before* the standard enpoint. Devices known to implement it that way
are "Sennheiser BTD-500" and Plantronics USB headsets.
When the driver can't find the USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT, it won't be able to
change sample rates, as the bitmask for the validity of this command is
storen in bmAttributes of that descriptor.
Fix this by searching the entire interface instead of just the extra
bytes of the first endpoint, in case the latter fails.

In commit 85fe402 (fs: do not assign default i_ino in new_inode), the
initialisation of i_ino was removed from new_inode() and pushed down
into the callers. However spufs_new_inode() was not updated.
This exhibits as no files appearing in /spu, because all our dirents
have a zero inode, which readdir() seems to dislike.

fbcon: don't lose the console font across generic->chip driver switch
uses a pointer in vc->vc_font.data to load font into the new driver.
However if the font is actually freed, we need to clear the data
so that we don't reload font from dangling pointer.

The seconds field of an nfstime4 structure is 64bit, but we are assuming
that the first 32bits are zero-filled. So if the client tries to set
atime to a value before the epoch (touch -t 196001010101), then the
server will save the wrong value on disk.

The TX_FIFO register is 10 bits wide. The lower 8 bits are the data to be
written, while the upper two bits are flags to indicate stop/start.
The driver apparently attempted to optimize write access, by only writing a
byte in those cases where the stop/start bits are zero. However, we have
seen cases where the lower byte is duplicated onto the upper byte by the
hardware, which causes inadvertent stop/starts.
This patch changes the write access to the transmit FIFO to always be 16 bits
wide.

Many cards based on CY7C68300A/B/C use the USB ID 04b4:6830 but only the
B and C variants (EZ-USB AT2LP) support the ATA Command Block
functionality, according to the data sheets. The A variant (EZ-USB AT2)
locks up if ATACB is attempted, until a typical 30 seconds timeout runs
out and a USB reset is performed.

It seems that one way to spot a CY7C68300A (at least where the card
manufacturer left Cypress' EEPROM default vaules, against Cypress'
recommendations) is to look at the USB string descriptor indices.
A http://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data%20Sheets/Cypress%20PDFs/CY7C68300A.pdf
B http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/43456.pdf
C http://www.cypress.com/?rID=14189
Note that a CY7C68300B/C chip appears as CY7C68300A if it is running
in Backward Compatibility Mode, and if ATACB would be supported in this
case there is anyway no way to tell which chip it really is.
For 5 years my external USB drive has been locking up for half a minute
when plugged in and ata_id is run by udev, or anytime hdparm or similar
is run on it.
Finally looking at the /correct/ datasheet I think I found the reason. I
am aware the quirk in this patch is a bit hacky, but the hardware
manufacturers haven't made it easy for us.
The current ST Micro Connect Lite uses the FT4232H hi-speed quad USB
UART FTDI chip. It is also possible to drive STM reference targets
populated with an on-board JTAG debugger based on the FT2232H chip with
the same STMicroelectronics tools.
For this reason, the ST Micro Connect Lite PIDs should be
ST_STMCLT_2232_PID: 0x3746
ST_STMCLT_4232_PID: 0x3747
