thinkpad-acpi: fix LED blinking through timer trigger
commit
75bd3bf2ade9d548be0d2bde60b5ee0fdce0b127 upstream.
The set_blink hook code in the LED subdriver would never manage to get
a LED to blink, and instead it would just turn it on. The consequence
of this is that the "timer" trigger would not cause the LED to blink
if given default parameters.
This problem exists since 2.6.26-rc1.
To fix it, switch the deferred LED work handling to use the
thinkpad-acpi-specific LED status (off/on/blink) directly.
This also makes the code easier to read, and to extend later.

fix ptrace slowness
commit
53da1d9456fe7f87a920a78fdbdcf1225d197cb7 upstream.
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.

powerpc: Sanitize stack pointer in signal handling code
This has been backported to 2.6.28.x from commit
efbda86098 in Linus' tree
On powerpc64 machines running 32-bit userspace, we can get garbage bits in the
stack pointer passed into the kernel. Most places handle this correctly, but
the signal handling code uses the passed value directly for allocating signal
stack frames.
This fixes the issue by introducing a get_clean_sp function that returns a
sanitized stack pointer. For 32-bit tasks on a 64-bit kernel, the stack
pointer is masked correctly. In all other cases, the stack pointer is simply
returned.
Additionally, we pass an 'is_32' parameter to get_sigframe now in order to
get the properly sanitized stack. The callers are know to be 32 or 64-bit
statically.

There is a race between a "close of the file descriptors" and module
unload in the kvm module.
You can easily trigger this problem by applying this debug patch:
>--- kvm.orig/virt/kvm/kvm_main.c
>+++ kvm/virt/kvm/kvm_main.c

> spin_lock(&kvm_lock);
> list_del(&kvm->vm_list);
> spin_unlock(&kvm_lock);
and killing the userspace, followed by an rmmod.
The problem is that kvm_destroy_vm can run while the module count
is 0. That means, you can remove the module while kvm_destroy_vm
is running. But kvm_destroy_vm is part of the module text. This
causes a kerneloops. The race exists without the msleep but is much
harder to trigger.
This patch requires the fix for anon_inodes (anon_inodes: use fops->owner
for module refcount).
With this patch, we can set the owner of all anonymous KVM inodes file
operations. The VFS will then control the KVM module refcount as long as there
is an open file. kvm_destroy_vm will be called by the release function of the
last closed file - before the VFS drops the module refcount.

1. Set the 1st counting entry's flag KVM_CPUID_FLAG_STATE_READ_NEXT. Without

2. Also the stop condition in the for loop while looking for the next unflaged

and in the case of count of 1, it will be the same entry found in this

anon_inodes: use fops->owner for module refcount
There is an imbalance for anonymous inodes. If the fops->owner field is set,
the module reference count of owner is decreases on release.
("filp_close" --> "__fput" ---> "fops_put")
On the other hand, anon_inode_getfd does not increase the module reference
count of owner. This causes two problems:
- if owner is set, the module refcount goes negative
- if owner is not set, the module can be unloaded while code is running
This patch changes anon_inode_getfd to be symmetric regarding fops->owner
handling.
I have checked all existing users of anon_inode_getfd. Noone sets fops->owner,
thats why nobody has seen the module refcount negative. The refcounting was
tested with a patched and unpatched KVM module.(see patch 2/2) I also did an

The above commit added WRITE_SYNC and switched various places to using
that for committing writes that will be waited upon immediately after
submission. However, this causes a performance regression with AS and CFQ
for ext3 at least, since sync_dirty_buffer() will submit some writes with
WRITE_SYNC while ext3 has sumitted others dependent writes without the sync
flag set. This causes excessive anticipation/idling in the IO scheduler
because sync and async writes get interleaved, causing a big performance
regression for the below test case (which is meant to simulate sqlite
like behaviour).

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
at startup. In retrospect, the message should had been read as an hint of
an unexpected hardware state several months ago :o(

SCSI: sg: avoid blk_put_request/blk_rq_unmap_user in interrupt
upstream commit:
c96952ed7031e7c576ecf90cf95b8ec099d5295a
This fixes the following oops:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=
123316111415677&w=2
You can reproduce this bug by interrupting a program before a sg
response completes. This leads to the special sg state (the orphan
state), then sg calls blk_put_request in interrupt (rq->end_io).
The above bug report shows the recursive lock problem because sg calls
blk_put_request in interrupt. We could call __blk_put_request here
instead however we also need to handle blk_rq_unmap_user here, which
can't be called in interrupt too.
In the orphan state, we don't need to care about the data transfer
(the program revoked the command) so adding 'just free the resource'
mode to blk_rq_unmap_user is a possible option.
I prefer to avoid complicating the blk mapping API when possible. I
change the orphan state to call sg_finish_rem_req via
execute_in_process_context. We hold sg_fd->kref so sg_fd doesn't go
away until keventd_wq finishes our work. copy_from_user/to_user fails
so blk_rq_unmap_user just frees the resource without the data
transfer.

otherwise, a quickly-completing command may cause a different CPU

incorrect behavior.
Check srp->done and set srp->orphan while holding rq_list_lock to

There is no need to check sfp->closed from read/write/ioctl/poll/etc.

SCSI: sg: fix races during device removal
upstream commit:
c6517b7942fad663cc1cf3235cbe4207cf769332
sg has the following problems related to device removal:
* opening a sg fd races with removing a device
* closing a sg fd races with removing a device
* /proc/scsi/sg/* access races with removing a device
* command completion races with removing a device
* command completion races with closing a sg fd
* can rmmod sg with active commands
These problems can cause kernel oopses, memory-use-after-free, or
double-free errors. This patch fixes these problems by using krefs
to manage the lifetime of sg_device and sg_fd.
Each command submitted to the midlevel holds a reference to sg_fd
until the completion callback. This ensures that sg_fd doesn't go
away if the fd is closed with commands still outstanding.
sg_fd gets the reference of sg_device (with scsi_device) and also
makes sure that the sg module doesn't go away.
/proc/scsi/sg/* functions don't play nicely with krefs because they
give information about sg_fds which have been closed but not yet
freed due to still having outstanding commands and sg_devices which
have been removed but not yet freed due to still being referenced
by one or more sg_fds. To deal with this safely without removing
functionality, /proc functions now access sg_device and sg_fd while
holding a lock instead of using kref_get()/kref_put().

fsuid==0 is supposed to grant, did not include CAP_MKNOD and
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE. However, before capabilities the privilege
to call these did in fact depend upon fsuid==0.
This patch introduces those capabilities into the fsmask,
restoring the old behavior.
See the thread starting at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/11/157 for
reference.
Note that if this fix is deemed valid, then earlier kernel versions (2.4
and 2.2) ought to be fixed too.
Changelog:
[Mar 23] Actually delete old CAP_FS_SET definition...

sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load
upstream commit:
e3c8ca8336707062f3f7cb1cd7e6b3c753baccdd
Freezing tasks via the cgroup freezer causes the load average to climb
because the freezer's current implementation puts frozen tasks in
uninterruptible sleep (D state).
Some applications which perform job-scheduling functions consult the
load average when making decisions. If a cgroup is frozen, the load
average does not provide a useful measure of the system's utilization
to such applications. This is especially inconvenient if the job
scheduler employs the cgroup freezer as a mechanism for preempting low
priority jobs. Contrast this with using SIGSTOP for the same purpose:
the stopped tasks do not count toward system load.
Change task_contributes_to_load() to return false if the task is
frozen. This results in /proc/loadavg behavior that better meets
users' expectations.

posixtimers, sched: Fix posix clock monotonicity
upstream commit:
c5f8d99585d7b5b7e857fabf8aefd0174903a98c
Impact: Regression fix (against clock_gettime() backwarding bug)
This patch re-introduces a couple of functions, task_sched_runtime
and thread_group_sched_runtime, which was once removed at the
time of 2.6.28-rc1.
These functions protect the sampling of thread/process clock with
rq lock. This rq lock is required not to update rq->clock during
the sampling.
i.e.
The clock_gettime() may return
((accounted runtime before update) + (delta after update))
that is less than what it should be.
v2 -> v3:
- Rename static helper function __task_delta_exec()
to do_task_delta_exec() since -tip tree already has
a __task_delta_exec() of different version.
v1 -> v2:
- Revises comments of function and patch description.
- Add note about accuracy of thread group's runtime.

Making the freeing of q->queue dependent on q->pool being set looks
really weird (although it is correct at the moment. But this seems
to be fixable in a much simpler way.
With the benefit that only the error case is slowed down. In both
cases we have a problem if q->queue contains an error value but it's
not -ENOMEM. Apparently this can't happen today, but it doesn't feel
right to assume this will always be true. Maybe it's the right time
to fix this as well.

Memory freeing in iscsi_pool_free() looks wrong to me. Either q->pool
can be NULL and this should be tested before dereferencing it, or it
can't be NULL and it shouldn't be tested at all. As far as I can see,
the only case where q->pool is NULL is on early error in
iscsi_pool_init(). One possible way to fix the bug is thus to not
call iscsi_pool_free() in this case (nothing needs to be freed anyway)
and then we can get rid of the q->pool check.

splice: fix deadlock in splicing to file
upstream commit:
7bfac9ecf0585962fe13584f5cf526d8c8e76f17
There's a possible deadlock in generic_file_splice_write(),
splice_from_pipe() and ocfs2_file_splice_write():
- task A calls generic_file_splice_write()
- this calls inode_double_lock(), which locks i_mutex on both
pipe->inode and target inode
- ordering depends on inode pointers, can happen that pipe->inode is
locked first
- __splice_from_pipe() needs more data, calls pipe_wait()
- this releases lock on pipe->inode, goes to interruptible sleep
- task B calls generic_file_splice_write(), similarly to the first
- this locks pipe->inode, then tries to lock inode, but that is
already held by task A
- task A is interrupted, it tries to lock pipe->inode, but fails, as
it is already held by task B
- ABBA deadlock
Fix this by explicitly ordering locks: the outer lock must be on
target inode and the inner lock (which is later unlocked and relocked)
must be on pipe->inode. This is OK, pipe inodes and target inodes
form two nonoverlapping sets, generic_file_splice_write() and friends
are not called with a target which is a pipe.

e1b4b9f ([NETFILTER]: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: fix exponential worst-case
search for loops) introduced a regression in the loop detection algorithm,
causing sporadic incorrectly detected loops.
When a chain has already been visited during the check, it is treated as
having a standard target containing a RETURN verdict directly at the
beginning in order to not check it again. The real target of the first
rule is then incorrectly treated as STANDARD target and checked not to
contain invalid verdicts.
Fix by making sure the rule does actually contain a standard target.

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

While looking at the issue in the thread:
http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=

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.

The issue is with hardware which needs help conforming to part

send a ZLP in response to an unexpected IN, but not all chips

(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,
and removes the only user of the "out" label.

eCryptfs: Allocate a variable number of pages for file headers
commit
8faece5f906725c10e7a1f6caf84452abadbdc7b upstream.
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

switch. The core DRM vblank code is missing a check for this case however;
even after IRQ disable, the vblank code will still have the vblank_enabled
flag set, so unless we track the fact that they're disabled at IRQ uninstall
time, when we VT switch back in we won't actually re-enable them, which means
any apps waiting on vblank before the switch will hang.
This patch does that and also adds a sanity check to the wait condition to
look for the irq_enabled flag in general, as well as adding a wakeup to the
IRQ uninstall path.
Fixes fdo bug #18879 with compiz hangs at VT switch.

powerpc: Remove extra semicolon in fsl_soc.c
TSEC/MDIO will not work with older device trees because of a semicolon

This fix only applies to 2.6.28; this code is gone in 2.6.29, according

USB: EHCI: Fix isochronous URB leak
commit
508db8c954d55ed30f870d2c24d741ba6269d13c upstream.
ehci-hcd uses usb_get_urb() and usb_put_urb() in an unbalanced way causing
isochronous URB's kref.counts incrementing once per usb_submit_urb() call.
The culprit is *usb being set to NULL when usb_put_urb() is called after URB
is given back.
Due to other fixes there is no need for ehci-hcd to deal with usb_get_urb()
nor usb_put_urb() anymore, so patch removes their usages in ehci-hcd.
Patch also makes ehci_to_hcd(ehci)->self.bandwidth_allocated adjust, if a
stream finishes.

USB: EHCI: expedite unlinks when the root hub is suspended
commit
391016f6e2fe3b9979b4c6880a76e5e434d6947c upstream.
This patch (as1225) fixes a bug in ehci-hcd. The condition for
whether unlinked QHs can become IDLE should not be that the controller
is halted, but rather that the controller isn't running. In other
words when the root hub is suspended, the hardware doesn't own any
QHs.
This fixes a problem that can show up during hibernation: If a QH is
only partially unlinked when the root hub is frozen, then when the
root hub is thawed the QH won't be in the IDLE state. As a result it
can't be used properly for new URB submissions.
