Mark Salter 4c03ee7352 mn10300: signal stack fix
This fixes a signal stack handling problem in the MN10300 arch.  When new
threads are cloned with CLONE_VM, they don't inherit the alternate signal
stack.  They do share the signal flags, though.  When deciding whether to
use an alternate stack, the arch code needs to check to make sure the task
struct contains a valid alternate stack.  This patch fixes the MN10300
arch by using the sas_ss_flags() test provided by sched.h rather than the
on_sig_stack() test which is insufficient by itself.

OGAWA Hirofumi 004731b2c7 rtc_cmos: convert shutdown to new pnp_driver->shutdown
commit abd6633c67 ("pnp: add a shutdown
method to pnp drivers") adds shutdown method to bus driver blindly.  With
it, driver->shutdown is no longer valid.

Use pnp_driver->shutdown instead.

Minchan Kim 7f53a09ed4 smaps: fix wrong rss count
A long time ago we regarded zero page as file_rss and vm_normal_page
doesn't return NULL.

But now, we reinstated ZERO_PAGE and vm_normal_page's implementation can
return NULL in case of zero page.  Also we don't count it with file_rss
any more.

Then, RSS and PSS can't be matched.  For consistency, Let's ignore zero
page in smaps_pte_range.

Adrian Hunter 5fa83ce284 mmc_block: fix queue cleanup
The main bug was that 'blk_cleanup_queue()' was called while the block
device could still be in use, for example, because the card was removed
while files were still open.

In addition, to be sure that 'mmc_request()' will get called for all new
requests (so it can error them out), the queue is emptied during cleanup.
This is done after the worker thread is stopped to avoid racing with it.

Finally, it is not a device error for this to be happening, so quiet the
(sometimes very many) error messages.

When a card is removed before mmc_blk_probe() has called add_disk(), then
the minor field is uninitialized and has value 0.  This caused
mmc_blk_put() to always release devidx 0 even if 0 was still in use.  Then
the next mmc_blk_probe() used the first free idx of 0, which oopses in
sysfs, since it is used by another card.

Commit d899bf7b (procfs: provide stack information for threads) introduced

performance regression.  Unfortunately /proc/{pid}/status is used ps
command too and ps is one of most important component.  Because both to
take mmap_sem and page table walk are heavily operation.

If many process run, the ps performance is,

Thus, this patch revert it. Fortunately /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/smaps
provide almost same information. we can use it.

Commit d899bf7b introduced two features:

 1) Add the annotattion of [thread stack: xxxx] mark to
    /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/maps.
 2) Add StackUsage field to /proc/{pid}/status.

I only revert (2), because I haven't seen (1) cause regression.

Andi Kleen b45c6e76bc kernel/signal.c: fix kernel information leak with print-fatal-signals=1
When print-fatal-signals is enabled it's possible to dump any memory
reachable by the kernel to the log by simply jumping to that address from
user space.

Or crash the system if there's some hardware with read side effects.

The fatal signals handler will dump 16 bytes at the execution address,
which is fully controlled by ring 3.

In addition when something jumps to a unmapped address there will be up to
16 additional useless page faults, which might be potentially slow (and at
least is not very efficient)

Fortunately this option is off by default and only there on i386.

But fix it by checking for kernel addresses and also stopping when there's
a page fault.

Dave Anderson bd4f490a07 cgroups: fix 2.6.32 regression causing BUG_ON() in cgroup_diput()
The LTP cgroup test suite generates a "kernel BUG at kernel/cgroup.c:790!"
here in cgroup_diput():

                 /*
                  * if we're getting rid of the cgroup, refcount should ensure
                  * that there are no pidlists left.
                  */
                 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&cgrp->pidlists));

The cgroup pidlist rework in 2.6.32 generates the BUG_ON, which is caused
when pidlist_array_load() calls cgroup_pidlist_find():

(1) if a matching cgroup_pidlist is found, it down_write's the mutex of the
     pre-existing cgroup_pidlist, and increments its use_count.
(2) if no matching cgroup_pidlist is found, then a new one is allocated, it
     down_write's its mutex, and the use_count is set to 0.
(3) the matching, or new, cgroup_pidlist gets returned back to pidlist_array_load(),
     which increments its use_count -- regardless whether new or pre-existing --
     and up_write's the mutex.

So if a matching list is ever encountered by cgroup_pidlist_find() during
the life of a cgroup directory, it results in an inflated use_count value,
preventing it from ever getting released by cgroup_release_pid_array().
Then if the directory is subsequently removed, cgroup_diput() hits the
BUG_ON() when it finds that the directory's cgroup is still populated with
a pidlist.

The patch simply removes the use_count increment when a matching pidlist
is found by cgroup_pidlist_find(), because it gets bumped by the calling
pidlist_array_load() function while still protected by the list's mutex.

Albin Tonnerre 7dd65feb6c lib: add support for LZO-compressed kernels
This patch series adds generic support for creating and extracting
LZO-compressed kernel images, as well as support for using such images on
the x86 and ARM architectures, and support for creating and using
LZO-compressed initrd and initramfs images.

Russell King said:

: Testing on a Cortex A9 model:
: - lzo decompressor is 65% of the time gzip takes to decompress a kernel
: - lzo kernel is 9% larger than a gzip kernel
:
: which I'm happy to say confirms your figures when comparing the two.
:
: However, when comparing your new gzip code to the old gzip code:
: - new is 99% of the size of the old code
: - new takes 42% of the time to decompress than the old code
:
: What this means is that for a proper comparison, the results get even better:
: - lzo is 7.5% larger than the old gzip'd kernel image
: - lzo takes 28% of the time that the old gzip code took
:
: So the expense seems definitely worth the effort.  The only reason I
: can think of ever using gzip would be if you needed the additional
: compression (eg, because you have limited flash to store the image.)
:
: I would argue that the default for ARM should therefore be LZO.

This patch:

The lzo compressor is worse than gzip at compression, but faster at
extraction.  Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on:

Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo
gzip  1.61Mo 0.72s
lzo   1.75Mo 0.48s

So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's
much faster to extract, at least in that case.

This part contains:
 - Makefile routine to support lzo compression
 - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in
   compressed kernels
 - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one
   block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here

Joakim Tjernlund ac4c2a3bbe zlib: optimize inffast when copying direct from output
JFFS2 uses lesser compression ratio and inflate always ends up in "copy
direct from output" case.

This patch tries to optimize the direct copy procedure.  Uses
get_unaligned() but only in one place.

The copy loop just above this one can also use this optimization, but I
havn't done so as I have not tested if it is a win there too.

On my MPC8321 this is about 17% faster on my JFFS2 root FS than the
original.

Andrew Morton 129182e562 percpu: avoid calling __pcpu_ptr_to_addr(NULL)
__pcpu_ptr_to_addr() can be overridden by the architecture and might not
behave well if passed a NULL pointer.  So avoid calling it until we have
verified that its arg is not NULL.

Masami Hiramatsu 8767ba2796 kmod: fix resource leak in call_usermodehelper_pipe()
Fix resource (write-pipe file) leak in call_usermodehelper_pipe().

When call_usermodehelper_exec() fails, write-pipe file is opened and
call_usermodehelper_pipe() just returns an error.  Since it is hard for
caller to determine whether the error occured when opening the pipe or
executing the helper, the caller cannot close the pipe by themselves.

I've found this resoruce leak when testing coredump.  You can check how
the resource leaks as below;

$ echo "|nocommand" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
$ ulimit -c unlimited
$ while [ 1 ]; do ./segv; done &> /dev/null &
$ cat /proc/meminfo (<- repeat it)

where segv.c is;
//-----
int main () {
        char *p = 0;
        *p = 1;
}
//-----

This patch closes write-pipe file if call_usermodehelper_exec() failed.

Vegard Nossum e992cd9b72 kmemcheck: make bitfield annotations truly no-ops when disabled
It turns out that even zero-sized struct members (int foo[0];) will affect
the struct layout, causing us in particular to lose 4 bytes in struct
sock.

This patch fixes the regression in CONFIG_KMEMCHECK=n case.

Rafael J. Wysocki 50f411e34d DRM / i915: Fix resume regression on MSI Wind U100 w/o KMS
Commit cbda12d77e (drm/i915: implement
new pm ops for i915), among other things, removed the .suspend and
.resume pointers from the struct drm_driver object in i915_drv.c,
which broke resume without KMS on my MSI Wind U100.

Fix this by reverting that part of commit cbda12d77e.

[ The DRM layer will not use the class-specific suspend/resume functions
  if the driver is marked MODESET-aware, and conversely it will not
  register the PCI device if the drievr isn't so marked, so you always
  end up with _either_ the drm-class suspend/resume _or_ the PCI layer
  PM functionality, never both.  - Linus ]

Tony Luck 6c57a33290 [IA64] __per_cpu_idtrs[] is a memory hog
__per_cpu_idtrs is statically allocated ... on CONFIG_NR_CPUS=4096
systems it hogs 16MB of memory. This is way too much for a quite
probably unused facility (only KVM uses dynamic TR registers).

Change to an array of pointers, and allocate entries as needed on
a per cpu basis.  Change the name too as the __per_cpu_ prefix is
confusing (this isn't a classic <linux/percpu.h> type object).
