Zhao Yakui 882f021951 drm/kms: Parse the detailed time info in CEA-EDID
Sometimes we can obtain the EDID with multiple blocks from the display device.
For example: HDMI monitor.
When the CEA-EDID block is detected, we should also parse the detailed timing
info from it. Otherwise we will lose some modes for the display device.

The first step is check whether the CEA EDID block is found. If it exists,
it will skip the CEA-data block and parse the detailed timing info.

Dave Airlie 785b93ef8c drm/kms: move driver specific fb common code to helper functions (v2)
Initially I always meant this code to be shared, but things
ran away from me before I got to it.

This refactors the i915 and radeon kms fbdev interaction layers
out into generic helpers + driver specific pieces.

It moves all the panic/sysrq enhancements to the core file,
and stores a linked list of kernel fbs. This could possibly be
improved to only store the fb which has fbcon on it for panics
etc.

radeon retains some specific codes used for a big endian
workaround.

changes:
fix oops in v1
fix freeing path for crtc_info

Ben Hutchings 7dc482dfee drm/r128: Add test for initialisation to all ioctls that require it
Almost all r128's private ioctls require that the CCE state has
already been initialised.  However, most do not test that this has
been done, and will proceed to dereference a null pointer.  This may
result in a security vulnerability, since some ioctls are
unprivileged.

This adds a macro for the common initialisation test and changes all
ioctl implementations that require prior initialisation to use that
macro.

Also, r128_do_init_cce() does not test that the CCE state has not
been initialised already.  Repeated initialisation may lead to a crash
or resource leak.  This adds that test.

For Radeon 600-series, there are two separate firmware blobs:
    __be32 me_ucode[PM4_UCODE_SIZE * 3];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

For Radeon 700-series, likewise:
    __be32 me_ucode[R700_PM4_UCODE_SIZE];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[R700_PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

Chris Wright 6faf17f6f1 PCI SR-IOV: correct broken resource alignment calculations
An SR-IOV capable device includes an SR-IOV PCIe capability which
describes the Virtual Function (VF) BAR requirements.  A typical SR-IOV
device can support multiple VFs whose BARs must be in a contiguous region,
effectively an array of VF BARs.  The BAR reports the size requirement
for a single VF.  We calculate the full range needed by simply multiplying
the VF BAR size with the number of possible VFs and create a resource
spanning the full range.

This all seems sane enough except it artificially inflates the alignment
requirement for the VF BAR.  The VF BAR need only be aligned to the size
of a single BAR not the contiguous range of VF BARs.  This can cause us
to fail to allocate resources for the BAR despite the fact that we
actually have enough space.

This patch adds a thin PCI specific layer over the generic
resource_alignment() function which is aware of the special nature of
VF BARs and does sorting and allocation based on the smaller alignment
requirement.

I recognize that while resource_alignment is generic, it's basically a
PCI helper.  An alternative to this patch is to add PCI VF BAR specific
information to struct resource.  I opted for the extra layer rather than
adding such PCI specific information to struct resource.  This does
have the slight downside that we don't cache the BAR size and re-read
for each alignment query (happens a small handful of times during boot
for each VF BAR).

Eric Anholt a09ba7faf7 drm/i915: Fix CPU-spinning hangs related to fence usage by using an LRU.
The lack of a proper LRU was partially worked around by taking the fence
from the object containing the oldest seqno.  But if there are multiple
objects inactive, then they don't have seqnos and the first fence reg
among them would be chosen.  If you were trying to copy data between two
mappings, this could result in each page fault stealing the fence from
the other argument, and your application hanging.

Peter Zijlstra eced1dfcfc perf_counter: Fix /0 bug in swcounters
We have a race in the swcounter stuff where we can start
counting a counter that has never been enabled, this leads to a
/0 situation.

The below avoids the /0 but doesn't close the race, this would
need a new counter state.

The race is due to perf_swcounter_is_counting() which cannot
discern between disabled due to scheduled out, and disabled for
any other reason.

Such a crash has been seen by Ingo:

Herbert Xu 0c7d400faf crypto: skcipher - Fix skcipher_dequeue_givcrypt NULL test
As struct skcipher_givcrypt_request includes struct crypto_request
at a non-zero offset, testing for NULL after converting the pointer
returned by crypto_dequeue_request does not work.  This can result
in IPsec crashes when the queue is depleted.

This patch fixes it by doing the pointer conversion only when the
return value is non-NULL.  In particular, we create a new function
__crypto_dequeue_request that does the pointer conversion.

Ingo Molnar ea6bff3685 modules: Fix build error in the !CONFIG_KALLSYMS case
> James Bottomley (1):

-tip testing found that this patch breaks the build on x86 if
CONFIG_KALLSYMS is disabled:

 kernel/module.c: In function ‘load_module’:
 kernel/module.c:2367: error: ‘struct module’ has no member named ‘sect_attrs’
 distcc[8269] ERROR: compile kernel/module.c on ph/32 failed

 make: *** [kernel] Error 2
 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Commit 1b364bf misses the fact that section attributes are only
built and dealt with if kallsyms is enabled. The patch below fixes
this.

( note, technically speaking this should depend on CONFIG_SYSFS as
  well but this patch is correct too and keeps the #ifdef less
  intrusive - in the KALLSYMS && !SYSFS case the code is a NOP. )

Lin Ming b0de22bdff ACPICA: Windows compatibility fix: same buffer/string store
Fix a compatibility issue when the same buffer or string is
stored to itself. This has been seen in the field. Previously,
ACPICA would zero out the buffer/string. Now, the operation is
treated as a NOP.

Zhu Yi 11ebd1bf07 ipw2200: firmware DMA loading rework
Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz reported an atomic order-6 allocation failure
for ipw2200 firmware loading in kernel 2.6.30. High order allocation is
likely to fail and should always be avoided.

The patch fixes this problem by replacing the original order-6
pci_alloc_consistent() with an array of order-1 pages from a pci pool.
This utilized the ipw2200 DMA command blocks (up to 64 slots). The
maximum firmware size support remains the same (64*8K).

This patch fixes bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14016

Eric Paris 750a8870fe inotify: update the group mask on mark addition
Seperating the addition and update of marks in inotify resulted in a
regression in that inotify never gets events.  The inotify group mask is

Brian Rogers b962e7312a inotify: do not send a block of zeros when no pathname is available
When an event has no pathname, there's no need to pad it with a null byte and
therefore generate an inotify_event sized block of zeros. This fixes a
regression introduced by commit 0db501bd06 where
my system wouldn't finish booting because some process was being confused by
this.

Tao Ma a1b08e75df ocfs2: invalidate dentry if its dentry_lock isn't initialized.
In commit a5a0a63092, when
ocfs2_attch_dentry_lock fails, we call an extra iput and reset
dentry->d_fsdata to NULL. This resolve a bug, but it isn't
completed and the dentry is still there. When we want to use
it again, ocfs2_dentry_revalidate doesn't catch it and return
true. That make future ocfs2_dentry_lock panic out.
One bug is http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1162.

The resolution is to add a check for dentry->d_fsdata in
revalidate process and return false if dentry->d_fsdata is NULL,
so that a new ocfs2_lookup will be called again.

James Bottomley 1b364bf438 module: workaround duplicate section names
The root cause is a duplicate section name (.text); is this legal?
[ Amerigo Wang: "AFAIK, yes." ]

However, there's a problem with commit
6d76013381 in that if you fail to allocate
a mod->sect_attrs (in this case it's null because of the duplication),
it still gets used without checking in add_notes_attrs()

This should fix it

[ This patch leaves other problems, particularly the sections directory,
  but recent parisc toolchains seem to produce these modules and this
  prevents a crash and is a minimal change -- RR ]

Eric W. Biederman 0db501bd06 inotify: Ensure we alwasy write the terminating NULL.
Before the rewrite copy_event_to_user always wrote a terqminating '\0'
byte to user space after the filename.  Since the rewrite that
terminating byte was skipped if your filename is exactly a multiple of
event_size.  Ouch!

So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to
set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the
strange nul_inotify_event.  I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero
will never exceed 16 and even if it doesn't clear_user should be more
efficient and a more accurate reflection of what the code is trying to
do.
