Jeremy Fitzhardinge 9412e28649 always_inline timespec_add_ns
timespec_add_ns is used from the x86-64 vdso, which cannot call out to
other kernel code.  Make sure that timespec_add_ns is always inlined
(and only uses always_inlined functions) to make sure there are no
unexpected calls.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge f595ec964d common implementation of iterative div/mod
We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used
when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor.
Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this
into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and
even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc.

The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent
gcc from performing the transformation.

This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it
to replace the open-coded versions I know about.

Bjorn Helgaas e9fe9e1881 pnpacpi: fix IRQ flag decoding
When decoding IRQ trigger mode and polarity, it is not enough to mask by
IORESOURCE_BITS because there are now additional bits defined.  For
example, if IORESOURCE_IRQ_SHAREABLE was set, we failed to set *triggering
and *polarity at all.

I can't point to a failure that this patch fixes, but

Venkatesh Pallipadi dcb84f335b cpuidle acpi driver: fix oops on AC<->DC
cpuidle and acpi driver interaction bug with the way cpuidle_register_driver()
is called. Due to this bug, there will be oops on
AC<->DC on some systems, where they support C-states in one DC and not in AC.

The current code does
ON BOOT:
	Look at CST and other C-state info to see whether more than C1 is
	supported. If it is, then acpi processor_idle does a
	cpuidle_register_driver() call, which internally enables the device.

ON CST change notification (AC<->DC) and on suspend-resume:
	acpi driver temporarily disables device, updates the device with
	any new C-states, and reenables the device.

The problem is is on boot, there are no C2, C3 states supported and we skip
the register. Later on AC<->DC, we may get a CST notification and we try
to reevaluate CST and enabled the device, without actually registering it.
This causes breakage as we try to create /sys fs sub directory, without the
parent directory which is created at register time.

Thanks to Sanjeev for reporting the problem here.

Krzysztof Piotr Oledzki 709772e6e0 net: Fix routing tables with id > 255 for legacy software
Most legacy software do not like tables > 255 as rtm_table is u8
so tb_id is sent &0xff and it is possible to mismatch for example
table 510 with table 254 (main).

This patch introduces RT_TABLE_COMPAT=252 so the code uses it if
tb_id > 255. It makes such old applications happy, new
ones are still able to use RTA_TABLE to get a proper table id.

Oleg Nesterov 16882c1e96 sched: fix TASK_WAKEKILL vs SIGKILL race
schedule() has the special "TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE && signal_pending()" case,
this allows us to do

	current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
	schedule();

without fear to sleep with pending signal.

However, the code like

	current->state = TASK_KILLABLE;
	schedule();

is not right, schedule() doesn't take TASK_WAKEKILL into account. This means
that mutex_lock_killable(), wait_for_completion_killable(), down_killable(),
schedule_timeout_killable() can miss SIGKILL (and btw the second SIGKILL has
no effect).

Introduce the new helper, signal_pending_state(), and change schedule() to
use it. Hopefully it will have more users, that is why the task's state is
passed separately.

Note this "__TASK_STOPPED | __TASK_TRACED" check in signal_pending_state().
This is needed to preserve the current behaviour (ptrace_notify). I hope
this check will be removed soon, but this (afaics good) change needs the
separate discussion.

The fast path is "(state & (INTERRUPTIBLE | WAKEKILL)) + signal_pending(p)",
basically the same that schedule() does now. However, this patch of course
bloats schedule().

James Morris 560ee653b6 netfilter: ip_tables: add iptables security table for mandatory access control rules
The following patch implements a new "security" table for iptables, so
that MAC (SELinux etc.) networking rules can be managed separately to
standard DAC rules.

This is to help with distro integration of the new secmark-based
network controls, per various previous discussions.

The need for a separate table arises from the fact that existing tools
and usage of iptables will likely clash with centralized MAC policy
management.

The SECMARK and CONNSECMARK targets will still be valid in the mangle
table to prevent breakage of existing users.

Make the declaration of walk_memory_resource() and its powerpc

Akinobu Mita 93b071139a introduce memory_read_from_buffer()
This patch introduces memory_read_from_buffer().

The only difference between memory_read_from_buffer() and
simple_read_from_buffer() is which address space the function copies to.

simple_read_from_buffer copies to user space memory.
memory_read_from_buffer copies to normal memory.

But there was no warning in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt

gstreamer-v4l2 plugin breaks in Fedora rawhide). You can't just pull
things from the published userspace API like that.

Please can we revert the addition of _DEPRECATED to these ioctl
definitions. Perhaps we can add a runtime warning if they actually get
used? Or a compile-time warning if we can manage that?

Alan Cox a57c1bade5 libata-sff: Fix oops reported in kerneloops.org for pnp devices with no ctl
- Make ata_sff_altstatus private so nobody uses it by mistake
- Drop the 400nS delay from it

Add

ata_sff_irq_status	-	encapsulates the IRQ check logic

This function keeps the existing behaviour for altstatus using devices. I
actually suspect the logic was wrong before the changes but -rc isn't the
time to play with that

ata_sff_sync		-	ensure writes hit the device

Really we want an io* operation for 'is posted' eg ioisposted(ioaddr) so
that we can fix the nasty delay this causes on most systems.

- ata_sff_pause		-	400nS delay

Ensure the command hit the device and delay 400nS

- ata_sff_dma_pause

Ensure the I/O hit the device and enforce an HDMA1:0 transition delay.
Requires altstatus register exists, BUG if not so we don't risk
corruption in MWDMA modes. (UDMA the checksum will save your backside in
theory)

The only other complication then is devices with their own handlers.
rb532 can use dma_pause but scc needs to access its own altstatus
register for internal errata workarounds so directly call the drivers own
altstatus function.

Alan Cox 64e9159f5d serial_core: uart_set_ldisc infrastructure
The tty layer provides a callback that is used when the line discipline
is changed. Some hardware uses this to configure hardware specific
features such as IrDA mode on serial ports. Unfortunately the serial
layer does not provide this feature or pass it down to drivers.

Blackfin used to hack around this by rewriting the tty ops, but those are
now properly shared and const so the hack fails. Instead provide the
proper operations.

This change plus a follow up from the Blackfin guys is needed to avoid
blackfin losing features in this release.

Andrew G. Morgan ca05a99a54 capabilities: remain source compatible with 32-bit raw legacy capability support.
Source code out there hard-codes a notion of what the
_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION #define means in terms of the semantics of the
raw capability system calls capget() and capset().  Its unfortunate, but
true.

Since the confusing header file has been in a released kernel, there is
software that is erroneously using 64-bit capabilities with the semantics
of 32-bit compatibilities.  These recently compiled programs may suffer
corruption of their memory when sys_getcap() overwrites more memory than
they are coded to expect, and the raising of added capabilities when using
sys_capset().

As such, this patch does a number of things to clean up the situation
for all. It

  1. forces the _LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION define to always retain its
     legacy value.

  2. adopts a new #define strategy for the kernel's internal
     implementation of the preferred magic.

  3. deprecates v2 capability magic in favor of a new (v3) magic
     number. The functionality of v3 is entirely equivalent to v2,
     the only difference being that the v2 magic causes the kernel
     to log a "deprecated" warning so the admin can find applications
     that may be using v2 inappropriately.

[User space code continues to be encouraged to use the libcap API which
protects the application from details like this.  libcap-2.10 is the first
to support v3 capabilities.]

Fixes issue reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=447518.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 5adad01339 Input: rename SW_RADIO to SW_RFKILL_ALL
The SW_RADIO code for EV_SW events has a name that is not descriptive
enough of its intended function, and could induce someone to think
KEY_RADIO is its EV_KEY counterpart, which is false.

Rename it to SW_RFKILL_ALL, and document what this event is for.  Keep
the old name around, to avoid userspace ABI breaks.

The SW_RFKILL_ALL event is meant to be used by rfkill master switches.  It
is not bound to a particular radio switch type, and usually applies to all
types.  It is semantically tied to master rfkill switches that enable or
disable every radio in a system.

Rusty Russell b4f68be6c5 virtio: force callback on empty.
virtio allows drivers to suppress callbacks (ie. interrupts) for
efficiency (no locking, it's just an optimization).

There's a similar mechanism for the host to suppress notifications
coming from the guest: in that case, we ignore the suppression if the
ring is completely full.

It turns out that life is simpler if the host similarly ignores
callback suppression when the ring is completely empty: the network
driver wants to free up old packets in a timely manner, and otherwise
has to use a timer to poll.

We have to remove the code which ignores interrupts when the driver
has disabled them (again, it had no locking and hence was unreliable
anyway).

Note that by itself, having a "hardware" random generator does very
little: you should probably run "rngd" in your guest to feed this into
the kernel entropy pool.

Included:
	virtio_rng: dont use vmalloced addresses for virtio

	If virtio_rng is build as a module, random_data is an address
	in vmalloc space. As virtio expects guest real addresses, this
	can cause any kind of funny behaviour, so lets allocate
	random_data dynamically with kmalloc.

as a bonus this not only improves the many-clients case but

sysbench is a workload that quickly breaks down if the
scheduler over-balances, so since it showed an improvement
under NEWIDLE this change is definitely good.

Ilpo Järvinen b79eeeb9e4 tcp: Reorganize tcp_sock to fill 64-bit holes & improve locality
I tried to group recovery related fields nearby (non-CA_Open related
variables, to be more accurate) so that one to three cachelines would
not be necessary in CA_Open. These are now contiguously deployed:

  struct sk_buff_head        out_of_order_queue;   /*  1968    80 */
  /* --- cacheline 32 boundary (2048 bytes) --- */
  struct tcp_sack_block      duplicate_sack[1];    /*  2048     8 */
  struct tcp_sack_block      selective_acks[4];    /*  2056    32 */
  struct tcp_sack_block      recv_sack_cache[4];   /*  2088    32 */
  /* --- cacheline 33 boundary (2112 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */
  struct sk_buff *           highest_sack;         /*  2120     8 */
  int                        lost_cnt_hint;        /*  2128     4 */
  int                        retransmit_cnt_hint;  /*  2132     4 */
  u32                        lost_retrans_low;     /*  2136     4 */
  u8                         reordering;           /*  2140     1 */
  u8                         keepalive_probes;     /*  2141     1 */

  /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */

  u32                        prior_ssthresh;       /*  2144     4 */
  u32                        high_seq;             /*  2148     4 */
  u32                        retrans_stamp;        /*  2152     4 */
  u32                        undo_marker;          /*  2156     4 */
  int                        undo_retrans;         /*  2160     4 */
  u32                        total_retrans;        /*  2164     4 */

...and they're then followed by URG slowpath & keepalive related
variables.

Head of the out_of_order_queue always needed for empty checks, if
that's empty (and TCP is in CA_Open), following ~200 bytes (in 64-bit)
shouldn't be necessary for anything. If only OFO queue exists but TCP
is in CA_Open, selective_acks (and possibly duplicate_sack) are
necessary besides the out_of_order_queue but the rest of the block
again shouldn't be (ie., the other direction had losses).

As the cacheline boundaries depend on many factors in the preceeding
stuff, trying to align considering them doesn't make too much sense.

Commented one ordering hazard.

There are number of low utilized u8/16s that could be combined get 2
bytes less in total so that the hole could be made to vanish (includes
at least ecn_flags, urg_data, urg_mode, frto_counter, nonagle).

Oleg Nesterov cbaffba12c posix timers: discard SI_TIMER signals on exec
Based on Roland's patch. This approach was suggested by Austin Clements
from the very beginning, and then by Linus.

As Austin pointed out, the execing task can be killed by SI_TIMER signal
because exec flushes the signal handlers, but doesn't discard the pending
signals generated by posix timers. Perhaps not a bug, but people find this
surprising. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10460

NeilBrown dfc7064500 md: restart recovery cleanly after device failure.
When we get any IO error during a recovery (rebuilding a spare), we abort
the recovery and restart it.

For RAID6 (and multi-drive RAID1) it may not be best to restart at the
beginning: when multiple failures can be tolerated, the recovery may be
able to continue and re-doing all that has already been done doesn't make
sense.

We already have the infrastructure to record where a recovery is up to
and restart from there, but it is not being used properly.
This is because:
  - We sometimes abort with MD_RECOVERY_ERR rather than just MD_RECOVERY_INTR,
    which causes the recovery not be be checkpointed.
  - We remove spares and then re-added them which loses important state
    information.

The distinction between MD_RECOVERY_ERR and MD_RECOVERY_INTR really isn't
needed.  If there is an error, the relevant drive will be marked as
Faulty, and that is enough to ensure correct handling of the error.  So we
first remove MD_RECOVERY_ERR, changing some of the uses of it to
MD_RECOVERY_INTR.

Then we cause the attempt to remove a non-faulty device from an array to
fail (unless recovery is impossible as the array is too degraded).  Then
when remove_and_add_spares attempts to remove the devices on which
recovery can continue, it will fail, they will remain in place, and
recovery will continue on them as desired.

Issue:  If we are halfway through rebuilding a spare and another drive
fails, and a new spare is immediately available,  do we want to:
 1/ complete the current rebuild, then go back and rebuild the new spare or
 2/ restart the rebuild from the start and rebuild both devices in
    parallel.

Both options can be argued for.  The code currently takes option 2 as
  a/ this requires least code change
  b/ this results in a minimally-degraded array in minimal time.

Bernd Schubert 90b08710e4 md: allow parallel resync of md-devices.
In some configurations, a raid6 resync can be limited by CPU speed
(Calculating P and Q and moving data) rather than by device speed.  In
these cases there is nothing to be gained byt serialising resync of arrays
that share a device, and doing the resync in parallel can provide benefit.
 So add a sysfs tunable to flag an array as being allowed to resync in
parallel with other arrays that use (a different part of) the same device.

We want to have the drvdata field set properly when creating the device
as sysfs callbacks can assume it is present and it can race the later
setting of this field.

So, create two new functions, deviec_create_vargs() and
device_create_drvdata() that take this new field.

device_create_drvdata() will go away in 2.6.27 as the drvdata field will
just be moved to the device_create() call as it should be.

Diego 'Flameeyes' Petteno 6e7045990f HID: split Numlock emulation quirk from HID_QUIRK_APPLE_HAS_FN.
Since 2.6.25 the HID_QUIRK_APPLE_HAS_FN quirk is enabled even for
non-laptop Apple keyboards of the Aluminium series. The USB version of
these don't need Numlock emulation, like the laptop (and Aluminium
Wireless) do, as they have a proper keypad.

This patch splits the Numlock emulation for Apple keyboards in a
different quirk flag, so that it can be enabled for all the keyboards
but the Aluminium USB ones.

If the Numlock emulation is enabled for Aluminium USB keyboards, the
JKL and UIO keys become the numeric pad, and the rest of the keyboard
is disabled, included the key used to disable Numlock.

Additionally, these keyboard should not have a Numlock at all, as the
Numlock key is instead replaced by the 'Clear' key as usual for Apple
USB keyboards.

This timeout was set low because previously PMP register access was
done via polling and register access timeouts could stack up.  This is
no longer the case.  One timeout will make all following accesses fail
immediately.

In rare cases both marvell and SIMG PMPs need almost a second.  Bump
it to 3s.

Tom Tucker 02e7452de7 svcrdma: Simplify RDMA_READ deferral buffer management
An NFS_WRITE requires a set of RDMA_READ requests to fetch the write
data from the client. There are two principal pieces of data that
need to be tracked: the list of pages that comprise the completed RPC
and the SGE of dma mapped pages to refer to this list of pages. Previously
this whole bit was managed as a linked list of contexts with the
context containing the page list buried in this list. This patch
simplifies this processing by not keeping a linked list, but rather only
a pionter from the last submitted RDMA_READ's context to the context
that maps the set of pages that describe the RPC.  This significantly
simplifies this code path. SGE contexts are cleaned up inline in the DTO
path instead of at read completion time.

Eric Dumazet 44c81433e8 per_cpu: fix DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED for modules
Current module loader lookups ".data.percpu" ELF section to perform
per_cpu relocation.  But DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() uses another
section (".data.percpu.shared_aligned"), currently only handled in
vmlinux.lds, not by module loader.

To correct this problem, instead of adding logic into module loader, or
using at build time a module.lds file for all arches to group
".data.percpu.shared_aligned" into ".data.percpu", just use ".data.percpu"
for modules.

Alignment requirements are correctly handled by ld and module loader.

Markus Armbruster b32a09db4f add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing more robust
match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure
that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or
forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer.

There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options().  I believe it currently
can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious.

The source string is a substing of the mount options.  The kernel silently
truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero.  See
compat_sys_mount() and do_mount().

The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from
name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX.

We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.  PATH_MAX is 4096.  As far as
I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096.

Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct.  It
doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

Miklos Szeredi 78bb6cb9a8 fuse: add flag to turn on big writes
Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests.  In theory all
fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's
nothing in the API to prevent it.  Unfortunately there's a known case in
NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption.  There could also be
other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would
result in bugs.

To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default,
but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

KOSAKI Motohiro 4cd1a8fc3d memcg: fix possible panic when CONFIG_MM_OWNER=y
When mm destruction happens, we should pass mm_update_next_owner() the old mm.
 But unfortunately new mm is passed in exec_mmap().

Thus, kernel panic is possible when a multi-threaded process uses exec().

Also, the owner member comment description is wrong.  mm->owner does not
necessarily point to the thread group leader.

Paul Jackson f4ed0deae8 cpumask: remove bitmap_scnprintf_len and cpumask_scnprintf_len
They aren't used.  They were briefly used as part of some other patches to
provide an alternative format for displaying some /proc and /sys cpumasks.
They probably should have been removed when those other patches were dropped,
in favor of a different solution.

Johannes Berg f5184d267c net: Allow netdevices to specify needed head/tailroom
This patch adds needed_headroom/needed_tailroom members to struct
net_device and updates many places that allocate sbks to use them. Not
all of them can be converted though, and I'm sure I missed some (I
mostly grepped for LL_RESERVED_SPACE)

David S. Miller 8388e3da34 net: Set LL_MAX_HEADER properly for wireless.
Wireless networking, particularly with MESH enabled, has
quite strong requirements for link-layer header space.

Based upon some numbers and descriptions from Johannes Berg
we use 96 (same as AX25) for plain wireless, and with
mesh enabled we use 128.

In the process, simplify the cpp conditional logic here by
ordering the cases by those needing the most space down
to those needing the least case.

Linus Torvalds c714a534d8 Make 'cond_resched()' nullification depend on PREEMPT_BKL
Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes
PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is
obviously not the point of it at all).

Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier,
so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is
ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization.  And in the
meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing
the wrong thing.

Linus Torvalds 9404ef0297 Fix up 'need_resched()' definition
We should not go through the task pointer to get at the thread info,
since it's usually cheaper to just access the thread info directly.

So don't make the code look up 'current', when we can just use the
thread info accessor functions directly.  This generally avoids one
level of indirection and tends to work better together with code that
also looks at other thread flags (eg preempt_count).

David S. Miller 4951704b4e syncppp: Fix crashes.
The syncppp layer wants a mid-level netdev private pointer.

It was using netdev->priv but that only worked by accident,
and thus this scheme was broken when the device private
allocation strategy changed.

Add a proper mid-layer private pointer for uses like this,
update syncppp and all users, and remove the HDLC_PPP broken
tag from drivers/net/wan/Kconfig
