Tejun Heo b01e8dc343 alpha: fix percpu build breakage
alpha percpu access requires custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() definition for
modules to work around addressing range limitation.  This is done via
generating inline assembly using C preprocessing which forces the
assembler to generate external reference.  This happens behind the
compiler's back and makes the compiler think that static percpu variables
in modules are unused.

This used to be worked around by using __unused attribute for percpu
variables which prevent the compiler from omitting the variable; however,
recent declare/definition attribute unification change broke this as
__used can't be used for declaration.  Also, in the process,
PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES definition in alpha percpu.h got broken.

This patch adds PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES which is only used for definitions
and make alpha use it to add __used for percpu variables in modules.  This
also fixes the PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES double definition bug.

Heiko Carstens 2a2325e6e8 gcov: fix __ctors_start alignment
The ctors section for each object file is eight byte aligned (on 64 bit).
However the __ctors_start symbol starts at an arbitrary address dependent
on the size of the previous sections.

Therefore the linker may add some zeroes after __ctors_start to make sure
the ctors contents are properly aligned.  However the extra zeroes at the
beginning aren't expected by the code.  When walking the functions
pointers contained in there and extra zeroes are added this may result in
random jumps.  So make sure that the __ctors_start symbol is always
aligned as well.

Fixes this crash on an allyesconfig on s390:

Davide Libenzi 133890103b eventfd: revised interface and cleanups
Change the eventfd interface to de-couple the eventfd memory context, from
the file pointer instance.

Without such change, there is no clean way to racely free handle the
POLLHUP event sent when the last instance of the file* goes away.  Also,
now the internal eventfd APIs are using the eventfd context instead of the
file*.

This patch is required by KVM's IRQfd code, which is still under
development.

commit 2f0d0fd2a6 ("ide-acpi: cleanup
do_drive_get_GTF()") didn't account for the lack of hwif->acpidata
check in generic_ide_suspend() [ indirect user of do_drive_get_GTF()
through ide_acpi_exec_tfs() ] resulting in broken resume when ACPI
support is enabled but ACPI data is unavailable.

Fix it by adding ide_port_acpi() helper for checking if port needs
ACPI handling and cleaning generic_ide_{suspend,resume}() to use it
instead of hiding hwif->acpidata and ide_noacpi checks in IDE ACPI
helpers (this should help in preventing similar bugs in the future).

While at it:
- kill superfluous debugging printks in ide_acpi_{get,push}_timing()

Jeremy Kerr e6ce306601 fs: allow d_instantiate to be called with negative parent dentry
The new fsnotify infrastructure (starting at 90586523) causes an oops in
spufs, where we populate a directory with files before instantiating the
directory itself. The new changes seem to have introduced an assumption
that a dentry's parent will be positive when instantiating.

This change makes it once again possible to d_instantiate a dentry
with a negative parent, and brings __fsnotify_d_instantiate() into
line with inotify_d_instantiate(), which already has this NULL check.

Kurt Garloff 5211a242d0 x86: Add sysctl to allow panic on IOCK NMI error
This patch introduces a new sysctl:

    /proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_io_nmi

which defaults to 0 (off).

When enabled, the kernel panics when the kernel receives an NMI
caused by an IO error.

The IO error triggered NMI indicates a serious system
condition, which could result in IO data corruption. Rather
than contiuing, panicing and dumping might be a better choice,
so one can figure out what's causing the IO error.

This could be especially important to companies running IO
intensive applications where corruption must be avoided, e.g. a
bank's databases.

[ SuSE has been shipping it for a while, it was done at the
  request of a large database vendor, for their users. ]

Ankit Jain 3e63cbb1ef fs: Add new pre-allocation ioctls to vfs for compatibility with legacy xfs ioctls
This patch adds ioctls to vfs for compatibility with legacy XFS
pre-allocation ioctls (XFS_IOC_*RESVP*). The implementation
effectively invokes sys_fallocate for the new ioctls.
Also handles the compat_ioctl case.
Note: These legacy ioctls are also implemented by OCFS2.

Heiko Carstens 507e123151 timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to avoid function calls
When the kernel is configured with CONFIG_TIMER_STATS but timer
stats are runtime disabled we still get calls to
__timer_stats_timer_set_start_info which initializes some
fields in the corresponding struct timer_list.

So add some quick checks in the the timer stats setup functions
to avoid function calls to __timer_stats_timer_set_start_info
when timer stats are disabled.

In an artificial workload that does nothing but playing ping
pong with a single tcp packet via loopback this decreases cpu
consumption by 1 - 1.5%.

This is part of a modified function trace output on SLES11:

Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 346c17a6cf ide: relax DMA info validity checking
There are some broken devices that report multiple DMA xfer modes
enabled at once (ATA spec doesn't allow it) but otherwise work fine
with DMA so just delete ide_id_dma_bug().

[ As discovered by detective work by Frans and Bart, due to how
  handling of the ID block was handled before commit c419993
  ("ide-iops: only clear DMA words on setting DMA mode") this
  check was always seeing zeros in the fields or other similar
  garbage.  Therefore this check wasn't actually checking anything.
  Now that the tests actually check the real bits, all we see are
  devices that trigger the check yet work perfectly fine, therefore
  killing this useless check is the best thing to do. -DaveM ]

Zhao Yakui 86e437f077 ACPI: Add the reference count to avoid unloading ACPI video bus twice
Sometimes both acpi video and i915 driver are compiled as modules.
And there exists the strict dependency between the two drivers.
The acpi video bus will be unloaded in course of unloading the i915 driver.
If we unload the acpi video driver, then the kernel oops will be triggered.

Add the reference count to avoid unloading the ACPI video bus twice.
The reference count should be checked before unregistering the acpi video bus.
If the reference count is already zero, it won't unregister it again.
And after the acpi video bus is already unregistered, the reference count
will be set to zero.

Herbert Xu d55d87fdff net: Move rx skb_orphan call to where needed
In order to get the tun driver to account packets, we need to be
able to receive packets with destructors set.  To be on the safe
side, I added an skb_orphan call for all protocols by default since
some of them (IP in particular) cannot handle receiving packets
destructors properly.

Now it seems that at least one protocol (CAN) expects to be able
to pass skb->sk through the rx path without getting clobbered.

So this patch attempts to fix this properly by moving the skb_orphan
call to where it's actually needed.  In particular, I've added it
to skb_set_owner_[rw] which is what most users of skb->destructor
call.

This is actually an improvement for tun too since it means that
we only give back the amount charged to the socket when the skb
is passed to another socket that will also be charged accordingly.

Weidong Han f007e99c8e Intel-IOMMU, intr-remap: source-id checking
To support domain-isolation usages, the platform hardware must be
capable of uniquely identifying the requestor (source-id) for each
interrupt message. Without source-id checking for interrupt remapping
, a rouge guest/VM with assigned devices can launch interrupt attacks
to bring down anothe guest/VM or the VMM itself.

This patch adds source-id checking for interrupt remapping, and then
really isolates interrupts for guests/VMs with assigned devices.

Because PCI subsystem is not initialized yet when set up IOAPIC
entries, use read_pci_config_byte to access PCI config space directly.

Mike Frysinger 01ff53f416 rmap: fixup page_referenced() for nommu systems
After the recent changes that went into mm/vmscan.c to overhaul stuff, we
ended up with these warnings on no-mmu systems:

  mm/vmscan.c: In function `shrink_page_list':
  mm/vmscan.c:580: warning: unused variable `vm_flags'
  mm/vmscan.c: In function `shrink_active_list':
  mm/vmscan.c:1294: warning: `vm_flags' may be used uninitialized in this function
  mm/vmscan.c:1242: note: `vm_flags' was declared here

This is because the no-mmu function defines page_referenced() to work on
the first argument only (the page).  It does not clear the vm_flags given
to it because for no-mmu systems, they never actually get utilized.  Since
that is no longer strictly true, we need to set vm_flags to 0 like
everyone else so gcc can do proper dead code elimination without annoying
us with unused warnings.

Hugh Dickins a5c9b696ec mm: pass mm to grab_swap_token
If a kthread happens to use get_user_pages() on an mm (as KSM does),
there's a chance that it will end up trying to read in a swap page, then
oops in grab_swap_token() because the kthread has no mm: GUP passes down
the right mm, so grab_swap_token() ought to be using it.

We have not identified a stronger case than KSM's daemon (not yet in
mainline), but the issue must have come up before, since RHEL has included
a fix for this for years (though a different fix, they just back out of
grab_swap_token if current->mm is unset: which is what we first proposed,
but using the right mm here seems more correct).
