Dennis Noordsij f0e0da8a6c ACPICA: Copy dynamically loaded tables to local buffer
Previously, dynamically loaded tables were simply mapped, but on some machines
this memory is corrupted after suspend. Now copy the table to a local buffer.
For OpRegion case, added checksum verify. Use the table length from the table header,
not the region length. For Buffer case, use the table length also.

donald.d.dugger@intel.com 383d7a11c9 ACPI: Fix possible null ptr dereference
Code in `pci_link.c' is calling the internal routine `acpi_ut_evaluate_object'
which is dangerous given that it is passing a NULL pointer when it should
be passing a pointer to a real object.  The patch corrects the issue by
having the code call the external routine `acpi_evaluate_object', which
correctly handles a NULL pointer.

Zhao Yakui 39a0ad8710 ACPI : Load device driver according to the status of acpi device
According to ACPI spec when the status of some device is not present
but functional, the device is valid and the children of this device
should be enumerated. It means that the device should be added to
linux acpi device tree. But the device driver for this device should not
be loaded.
    The detailed info can be found in the section 6.3.7 of ACPI 3.0b spec.
    _STA may return bit 0 clear (not present) with bit 3 set (device is
functional). This case is used to indicate a valid device for which no
device driver should be loaded (for example, a bridge device.).
Children of this device may be present and valid. OS should continue
enumeration below a device whose _STA returns this bit combination

Zhao Yakui f5adfaa372 ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power transition
Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which
is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0
state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0
state. In  such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and
checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device
can't be transited to the correct power state.

   So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking
the device power in the course of device power transition.

Lin Ming 08237974af ACPI: replace AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code with AE_ERROR
The AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code is now unused in ACPICA.
For linux, it's only used at wmi.c and acer-wmi.c.
I checked both wmi.c and acer-wmi.c, the AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code
has no special meaning. The parent functions just call AE_SUCCESS() or
AE_FAILURE() to check the return status.
So it's safe to replace AE_BAD_ADDRESS with AE_ERROR.

Zhao Yakui 8fd145917f ACPI: Ingore the RESET_REG_SUP bit when using ACPI reset mechanism
According to ACPI 3.0, FADT.flags.RESET_REG_SUP indicates
whether the ACPI reboot mechanism is supported.

However, some boxes have this bit clear, have a valid
ACPI_RESET_REG & RESET_VALUE, and ACPI reboot is the only
mechanism that works for them after S3.

This suggests that other operating systems may not be checking
the RESET_REG_SUP bit, and are using other means to decide
whether to use the ACPI reboot mechanism or not.

Here we stop checking RESET_REG_SUP.
Instead, When acpi reboot is requested,
only the reset_register is checked. If the following
conditions are met, it indicates that the reset register is supported.
	a. reset_register is not zero
	b. the access width is eight
	c. the bit_offset is zero

Zhao Yakui 20edd74fcf ACPI: Ignore AE_NOT_FOUND error of EC _REG method and continue to initialize EC
On some broken BIOS the ACPI object in EC _REG method can't be found in
ACPI namespace, which causes that the status code of AE_NOT_FOUND is returned by
the EC _REG object. In such case the EC device can't be initialized correctly,
which causes that battery/AC adapter can't work normally. As the EC address
space handler is not removed and the memory pointed by its input argument is
already free, sometimes the kernel will also be panic when EC internal register
is still accessed. But the windows can work well on such broken BIOS.

Maybe it will be reasonable that OS ignores the AE_NOT_FOUND error
returned by the EC _REG object and continues to initialize EC device
on some broken BIOS.
For example: the ACPI object in EC _REG method can't be found and status error
code is AE_NOT_FOUND.

Zhao Yakui 455c8793d2 ACPI: Enable EC device immediately after ACPI full initialization
when there is no ECDT table and no _INI object for EC device, it will be
enabled before scanning ACPI device. But it is too late after the following
the commit is merged.
    >commit 7752d5cfe3
    > Author: Robert Hancock <hancockr@shaw.ca>
    > Date:   Fri Feb 15 01:27:20 2008 -0800
       >x86: validate against acpi motherboard resources

   After the above commit is merged, OS will check whether MCFG area is
reserved in ACPI motherboard resources by calling the function of
acpi_get_devices when there exists MCFG table. In the acpi_get_devices the _STA
object will be evaluated to check the status of the ACPI device. On some broken
BIOS the MYEC object of EC device is initialized as one, which indicates that
EC operation region is already accessible before enabling EC device.So on these
broken BIOS the EC operation region will be accessed in course of evaluating
the _STA object before enabling EC device, which causes that OS will print the
following warning messages:
    >ACPI Error (evregion-0315): No handler for Region [EC__] (ffff88007f8145e8)
[EmbeddedControl] [20080609]
    >ACPI Error (exfldio-0290): Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no handler [20080321]
    >ACPI Error (psparse-0530): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.
         EC__.BAT1._STA] (Node ffff81013fc17a00), AE_NOT_EXIST
    >ACPI Error (uteval-0233): Method execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.EC__.BAT1.
         _STA] (Node ffff81013fc17a00), AE_NOT_EXIST

Although the above warning message is harmless, it looks confusing.
So it is necessary to enable EC device as early as possible.Maybe it is
appropriate to enable it immediately after ACPI full initialization.

Jan Beulich fcea94ba07 ACPI: fix FADT parsing
The (1.0 inherited) separate length fields in the FADT are byte granular.
Further, PM1a/b may have distinct lengths (if using the v2 fields was
okay) and may live in distinct address spaces.  acpi_tb_convert_fadt()
should account for all of these conditions.

Apart from these changes I'm puzzled by the fact that, not just for
acpi_gbl_xpm1{a,b}_enable, acpi_hw_low_level_{read,write}() get an
explicit size passed rather than using the size found in the passed GAS.
What happens on a platform that defines PM1{a,b} wider than 16 bits?  Of
course, acpi_hw_low_level_{read,write}() at present are entirely
un-prepared to deal with sizes other than 8, 16, or 32, not to speak of a
non-zero bit_offset or access_width...

Linus Torvalds efc968d450 Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPEND
This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the
combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination.

It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and
POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example.  So
we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones.

But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought,
and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for
IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse
isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file).

So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now.  I doubt anybody cares, and this
way we have one less gray area to worry about.

For now, we will always poll these devices once a second to guarantee we
can catch state changes. On newer Acer laptops, it may be possible to rely
on WMI events to do this instead, and experimental support for this will be
added in a later patch.

3G has been deliberately left off for now, as we still have no way to
detect it, (nor, AFAIK, has any Linux user tried the code) and on laptops
that don't support 3G, trying to poll for the status will leave the logs
full of ACPI tracebacks.

The old sysfs interface for wireless and bluetooth will be removed in a
later patch.

(Thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh and Dmitry Torokhov for reviewing
this patch).

Daniele Lacamera 9d2c27e17b tcp: Fix tcp_hybla zero congestion window growth with small rho and large cwnd.
Because of rounding, in certain conditions, i.e. when in congestion
avoidance state rho is smaller than 1/128 of the current cwnd, TCP
Hybla congestion control starves and the cwnd is kept constant
forever.

This patch forces an increment by one segment after #send_cwnd calls
without increments(newreno behavior).

Herbert Xu 58ec3b4db9 net: Fix netdev_run_todo dead-lock
Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances
of the error

unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d

It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if
a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free
a reference to the device waited on by the first instance.

The problem is really quite silly.  We were trying to create
parallelism where none was required.  As netdev_run_todo always
follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added
with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait
for the very ones that you've added and be done with it.

There is no need for a second mutex or spinlock.

This is exactly what the following patch does.

Ali Saidi 53240c2087 tcp: Fix possible double-ack w/ user dma
From: Ali Saidi <saidi@engin.umich.edu>

When TCP receive copy offload is enabled it's possible that
tcp_rcv_established() will cause two acks to be sent for a single
packet. In the case that a tcp_dma_early_copy() is successful,
copied_early is set to true which causes tcp_cleanup_rbuf() to be
called early which can send an ack. Further along in
tcp_rcv_established(), __tcp_ack_snd_check() is called and will
schedule a delayed ACK. If no packets are processed before the delayed
ack timer expires the packet will be acked twice.

Patrick McHardy b6c40d68ff net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP
Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN
device down that is in promiscous mode:

When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real
device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the
promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous
count on the real device is decremented a second time by the
vlan_change_rx_flags() callback.

The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is
invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror
the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function
is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is
responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags()
is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP.

Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the
intended behaviour.

SLOB's ksize calculation was braindamaged and generally harmlessly
underreported the allocation size. But for very small buffers, it could
in fact overreport them, leading code depending on krealloc to overrun
the allocation and trample other data.
