dm io: make sync_io uninterruptible
upstream commit:
b64b6bf4fd8b678a9f8477c11773c38a0a246a6d
If someone sends signal to a process performing synchronous dm-io call,
the kernel may crash.
The function sync_io attempts to exit with -EINTR if it has pending signal,
however the structure "io" is allocated on stack, so already submitted io
requests end up touching unallocated stack space and corrupting kernel memory.
sync_io sets its state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, so the signal can't break out
of io_schedule() --- however, if the signal was pending before sync_io entered
while (1) loop, the corruption of kernel memory will happen.
There is no way to cancel in-progress IOs, so the best solution is to ignore
signals at this point.

dm raid1: switch read_record from kmalloc to slab to save memory
upstream commit:
95f8fac8dc6139fedfb87746e0c8fda9b803cb46
With my previous patch to save bi_io_vec, the size of dm_raid1_read_record
is significantly increased (the vector list takes 3072 bytes on 32-bit machines
and 4096 bytes on 64-bit machines).
The structure dm_raid1_read_record used to be allocated with kmalloc,
but kmalloc aligns the size on the next power-of-two so an object
slightly greater than 4096 will allocate 8192 bytes of memory and half of
that memory will be wasted.
This patch turns kmalloc into a slab cache which doesn't have this
padding so it will reduce the memory consumed.

vfs: skip I_CLEAR state inodes
upstream commit:

clear_inode() will switch inode state from I_FREEING to I_CLEAR, and do so
_outside_ of inode_lock. So any I_FREEING testing is incomplete without a
coupled testing of I_CLEAR.
So add I_CLEAR tests to drop_pagecache_sb(), generic_sync_sb_inodes() and

dm: preserve bi_io_vec when resubmitting bios
upstream commit:
a920f6b3accc77d9dddbc98a7426be23ee479625
Device mapper saves and restores various fields in the bio, but it doesn't save
bi_io_vec. If the device driver modifies this after a partially successful
request, dm-raid1 and dm-multipath may attempt to resubmit a bio that has
bi_size inconsistent with the size of vector.
To make requests resubmittable in dm-raid1 and dm-multipath, we must save
and restore the bio vector as well.
To reduce the memory overhead involved in this, we do not save the pages in a
vector and use a 16-bit field size if the page size is less than 65536.

The function zeros out cpumask bits beyond the last possible cpu. The

On a MSI MS-6702E mainboard, when in rtl8169_init_one() for the first time

IntrStatus should equal 0 there, so patch changes IntrStatus reset to happen
after chip reset instead of before.
Remark (Francois):
Assuming that the loglevel of the driver is increased above NETIF_MSG_INTR,
the bug reveals itself with a typical "interrupt 0025 in poll" message

Some BIOSes report very high frequency transition latency which are plainly
wrong on CPus that can change frequency using native MSR interface.
One such system is IBM T42 (2327-8ZU) as reported by Owen Taylor and
Rik van Riel.
cpufreq_ondemand driver uses this transition latency to come up with a
reasonable sampling interval to sample CPU usage and with such high
latency value, ondemand sampling interval ends up being very high
(0.5 sec, in this particular case), resulting in performance impact due to
slow response to increasing frequency.
Fix it by capping-off the transition latency to 20uS for native MSR based
frequency transitions.

Jordan Hargrave diagnosed a BIOS clobbering %esi in the E820 call.
That particular BIOS has been fixed, but there is a possibility that
this is responsible for other occasional reports of early boot
failure, and it does not hurt to add %esi to the clobbers.
-stable candidate patch.

Impact: fix crashes when tracing cpumasks
While ring-buffer allocation, the cpumasks are allocated too,
including the tracing cpumask and the per-cpu file mask handler.
But these cpumasks are freed accidentally just after.
Fix it.

rt2x00: Fix SLAB corruption during rmmod
At rmmod stage, the code path is the following one :
rt2x00lib_remove_dev
-> rt2x00lib_uninitialize()
-> rt2x00rfkill_unregister()
-> rfkill_unregister()
-> rt2x00rfkill_free()
-> rfkill_free()
The problem is that rfkill_free should not be called after rfkill_register
otherwise put_device(&rfkill->dev) will be called 2 times. This patch
fixes this by only calling rt2x00rfkill_free() when rt2x00rfkill_register()
hasn't been called or has failed.

Many host bridges support a 4k config space, so check them directy
instead of using quirks to add them.
We only need to do this extra check for host bridges at this point,
because only host bridges are known to have extended address space
without also having a PCI-X/PCI-E caps. Other devices with this
property could be done with quirks (if there are any).
As a bonus, we can remove the quirks for AMD host bridges with family
10h and 11h since they're not needed any more.
With this patch, we can get correct pci cfg size of new Intel CPUs/IOHs

To fix this problem, check ->mm instead of ->active_mm, and this
means:

x86: mtrr: don't modify RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed MTRRs
upstream commit:
3ff42da5048649503e343a32be37b14a6a4e8aaf
Impact: bug fix + BIOS workaround
BIOS is expected to clear the SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on AMD CPUs
after fixed MTRRs are configured.
Some BIOSes do not clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on BP (and on APs).
This can lead to obfuscation in Linux when this bit is not cleared on
BP but cleared on APs. A consequence of this is that the saved
fixed-MTRR state (from BP) differs from the fixed-MTRRs of APs --
because RdDram/WrDram bits are read as zero when
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] is cleared -- and Linux tries to sync
fixed-MTRR state from BP to AP. This implies that Linux sets
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and activates those bits.
More important is that (some) systems change these bits in SMM when
ACPI is enabled. Hence it is racy if Linux modifies RdMem/WrMem bits,
too.
(1) The patch modifies an old fix from Bernhard Kaindl to get
suspend/resume working on some Acer Laptops. Bernhard's patch
tried to sync RdMem/WrMem bits of fixed MTRR registers and that
helped on those old Laptops. (Don't ask me why -- can't test it
myself). But this old problem was not the motivation for the
patch. (See http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/3/110)
(2) The more important effect is to fix issues on some more current systems.
On those systems Linux panics or just freezes, see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11541
(and also duplicates of this bug:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11737
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11714)
The affected systems boot only using acpi=ht, acpi=off or
when the kernel is built with CONFIG_MTRR=n.
The acpi options prevent full enablement of ACPI. Obviously when
ACPI is enabled the BIOS/SMM modfies RdMem/WrMem bits. When
CONFIG_MTRR=y Linux also accesses and modifies those bits when it
needs to sync fixed-MTRRs across cores (Bernhard's fix, see (1)).
How do you synchronize that? You can't. As a consequence Linux
shouldn't touch those bits at all (Rationale are AMD's BKDGs which
recommend to clear the bit that makes RdMem/WrMem accessible).
This is the purpose of this patch. And (so far) this suffices to
fix (1) and (2).
I suggest not to touch RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed-MTRRs and
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and to clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] as
suggested by AMD K8, and AMD family 10h/11h BKDGs.
BIOS is expected to do this anyway. This should avoid that
Linux and SMM tread on each other's toes ...

x86, PAT, PCI: Change vma prot in pci_mmap to reflect inherited prot
upstream commit:
9cdec049389ce2c324fd1ec508a71528a27d4a07
While looking at the issue in the thread:
http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=
123606627824556&w=2
noticed a bug in pci PAT code and memory type setting.
PCI mmap code did not set the proper protection in vma, when it
inherited protection in reserve_memtype. This bug only affects
the case where there exists a WC mapping before X does an mmap
with /proc or /sys pci interface. This will cause X userlevel
mmap from /proc or /sysfs to fail on fork.

778d80be52699596bf70e0eb0761cf5e1e46088d
(ipv6: Add disable_ipv6 sysctl to disable IPv6 operaion on specific interface)
seems to have introduced a leak of sk_buff's for ipv6 traffic,
at least in some configurations where idev is NULL, or when ipv6
is disabled via sysctl.
The problem is that if the first condition of the if-statement
returns non-NULL, it returns an skb with only one reference,
and when the other conditions apply, execution jumps to the "out"
label, which does not call kfree_skb for it.
To plug this leak, change to use the "drop" label instead.
(this relies on it being ok to call kfree_skb on NULL)
This also allows us to avoid calling rcu_read_unlock here,

GRO: Disable GRO on legacy netif_rx path
[ Upstream commit
8f1ead2d1a626ed0c85b3d2c2046a49081d5933f ]
When I fixed the GRO crash in the legacy receive path I used
napi_complete to replace __napi_complete. Unfortunately they're
not the same when NETPOLL is enabled, which may result in us
not calling __napi_complete at all.
What's more, we really do need to keep the __napi_complete call
within the IRQ-off section since in theory an IRQ can occur in
between and fill up the backlog to the maximum, causing us to
lock up.
Since we can't seem to find a fix that works properly right now,
this patch reverts all the GRO support from the netif_rx path.

bridge: bad error handling when adding invalid ether address

This fixes an crash when empty bond device is added to a bridge.
If an interface with invalid ethernet address (all zero) is added
to a bridge, then bridge code detects it when setting up the forward
databas entry. But the error unwind is broken, the bridge port object
can get freed twice: once when ref count went to zeo, and once by kfree.
Since object is never really accessible, just free it.

fix ptrace slowness
This patch fixes bug #12208:
Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12208
Subject : uml is very slow on 2.6.28 host
This turned out to be not a scheduler regression, but an already
existing problem in ptrace being triggered by subtle scheduler
changes.
The problem is this:
- task A is ptracing task B
- task B stops on a trace event
- task A is woken up and preempts task B
- task A calls ptrace on task B, which does ptrace_check_attach()
- this calls wait_task_inactive(), which sees that task B is still on the runq
- task A goes to sleep for a jiffy
- ...
Since UML does lots of the above sequences, those jiffies quickly add
up to make it slow as hell.
This patch solves this by not rescheduling in read_unlock() after
ptrace_stop() has woken up the tracer.

This patch fixes the issue by removing offending (and somewhat
duplicate) code from init_phy() routine, and changes _probe()
function to use uec_mdio_bus_name().
Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine,
we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in
ucc_geth_info structure.
I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only
way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been
tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions
expected.

correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that

IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked.
So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the

lockdep currently masks by forcibly setting IRQF_DISABLED

eCryptfs: Allocate a variable number of pages for file headers
When allocating the memory used to store the eCryptfs header contents, a
single, zeroed page was being allocated with get_zeroed_page().
However, the size of an eCryptfs header is either PAGE_CACHE_SIZE or
ECRYPTFS_MINIMUM_HEADER_EXTENT_SIZE (8192), whichever is larger, and is
stored in the file's private_data->crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front
field.
ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents() was using
num_header_bytes_at_front to decide how many bytes should be written to
the lower filesystem for the file header. Unfortunately, at least 8K
was being written from the page, despite the chance of the single,
zeroed page being smaller than 8K. This resulted in random areas of
kernel memory being written between the 0x1000 and 0x1FFF bytes offsets
in the eCryptfs file headers if PAGE_SIZE was 4K.
This patch allocates a variable number of pages, calculated with
num_header_bytes_at_front, and passes the number of allocated pages
along to ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents().
Thanks to Florian Streibelt for reporting the data leak and working with
me to find the problem. 2.6.28 is the only kernel release with this
vulnerability. Corresponds to CVE-2009-0787

radeonfb: Whack the PCI PM register until it sticks
This fixes a regression introduced when we switched to using the core
pci_set_power_state(). The chip seems to need the state to be written
over and over again until it sticks, so we do that.
Note that the code is a bit blunt, without timeout, etc... but that's
pretty much because I put back in there the code exactly as it used to
be before the regression. I still add a call to pci_set_power_state()
at the end so that ACPI gets called appropriately on x86.
