2011-02-04lockdep, timer: Fix del_timer_sync() annotationPeter Zijlstra
Calling local_bh_enable() will want to actually start processing softirqs, which isn't a good idea since this can get called with IRQs disabled. Cure this by using _local_bh_enable() which doesn't start processing softirqs, and use raw_local_irq_save() to avoid any softirqs from happening without letting lockdep think IRQs are in fact disabled.

2011-02-03x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after ↵Suresh Siddha
switching mm Clearing the cpu in prev's mm_cpumask early will avoid the flush tlb IPI's while the cr3 is still pointing to the prev mm. And this window can lead to the possibility of bogus TLB fills resulting in strange failures. One such problematic scenario is mentioned below. T1. CPU-1 is context switching from mm1 to mm2 context and got a NMI etc between the point of clearing the cpu from the mm_cpumask(mm1) and before reloading the cr3 with the new mm2. T2. CPU-2 is tearing down a specific vma for mm1 and will proceed with flushing the TLB for mm1. It doesn't send the flush TLB to CPU-1 as it doesn't see that cpu listed in the mm_cpumask(mm1). T3. After the TLB flush is complete, CPU-2 goes ahead and frees the page-table pages associated with the removed vma mapping. T4. CPU-2 now allocates those freed page-table pages for something else. T5. As the CR3 and TLB caches for mm1 is still active on CPU-1, CPU-1 can potentially speculate and walk through the page-table caches and can insert new TLB entries. As the page-table pages are already freed and being used on CPU-2, this page walk can potentially insert a bogus global TLB entry depending on the (random) contents of the page that is being used on CPU-2. T6. This bogus TLB entry being global will be active across future CR3 changes and can result in weird memory corruption etc. To avoid this issue, for the prev mm that is handing over the cpu to another mm, clear the cpu from the mm_cpumask(prev) after the cr3 is changed. Marking it for -stable, though we haven't seen any reported failure that can be attributed to this.

2011-02-03RTC: Convert rtc drivers to use the alarm_irq_enable methodJohn Stultz
Some rtc drivers use the ioctl method instead of the alarm_irq_enable method for enabling alarm interupts. With the new virtualized RTC rework, its important for drivers to use the alarm_irq_enable instead. This patch converts the drivers that use the AIE ioctl method to use the alarm_irq_enable method. Other ioctl cmds are left untouched. I have not been able to test or even compile most of these drivers. Any help to make sure this change is correct would be appreciated!

2011-02-03RTC: Fix rtc driver ioctl specific shortcuttingJohn Stultz
Some RTC drivers enable functionality directly via their ioctl method instead of using the generic ioctl handling code. With the recent virtualization of the RTC layer, its now important that the generic layer always be used. This patch moved the rtc driver ioctl method call to after the generic ioctl processing is done. This allows hardware specific features or ioctls to still function, while relying on the generic code for handling everything else. This patch on its own may more obviously break rtc drivers that implement the alarm irq enablement via their ioctl method instead of implementing the alarm_irq_eanble method. Those drivers will be fixed in a following patch. Additionaly, those drivers are already likely to not be functioning reliably without this patch.

2011-02-02memcg: prevent endless loop when charging huge pages to near-limit groupJohannes Weiner
If reclaim after a failed charging was unsuccessful, the limits are checked again, just in case they settled by means of other tasks. This is all fine as long as every charge is of size PAGE_SIZE, because in that case, being below the limit means having at least PAGE_SIZE bytes available. But with transparent huge pages, we may end up in an endless loop where charging and reclaim fail, but we keep going because the limits are not yet exceeded, although not allowing for a huge page. Fix this up by explicitely checking for enough room, not just whether we are within limits.

2011-02-02memcg: prevent endless loop when charging huge pagesJohannes Weiner
The charging code can encounter a charge size that is bigger than a regular page in two situations: one is a batched charge to fill the per-cpu stocks, the other is a huge page charge. This code is distributed over two functions, however, and only the outer one is aware of huge pages. In case the charging fails, the inner function will tell the outer function to retry if the charge size is bigger than regular pages--assuming batched charging is the only case. And the outer function will retry forever charging a huge page. This patch makes sure the inner function can distinguish between batch charging and a single huge page charge. It will only signal another attempt if batch charging failed, and go into regular reclaim when it is called on behalf of a huge page.

2011-02-02thp: fix unsuitable behavior for hwpoisoned tail pageJin Dongming
When a tail page of THP is poisoned, memory-failure will do nothing except setting PG_hwpoison, while the expected behavior is that the process, who is using the poisoned tail page, should be killed. The above problem is caused by lru check of the poisoned tail page of THP. Because PG_lru flag is only set on the head page of THP, the check always consider the poisoned tail page as NON lru page. So the lru check for the tail page of THP should be avoided, as like as hugetlb. This patch adds !PageTransCompound() before lru check for THP, because of the check (!PageHuge() && !PageTransCompound()) the whole branch could be optimized away at build time when both hugetlbfs and THP are set with "N" (or in archs not supporting either of those).

2011-02-02thp: fix the wrong reported address of hwpoisoned hugepagesJin Dongming
When the tail page of THP is poisoned, the head page will be poisoned too. And the wrong address, address of head page, will be sent with sigbus always. So when the poisoned page is used by Guest OS which is running on KVM, after the address changing(hva->gpa) by qemu, the unexpected process on Guest OS will be killed by sigbus. What we expected is that the process using the poisoned tail page could be killed on Guest OS, but not that the process using the healthy head page is killed. Since it is not good to poison the healthy page, avoid poisoning other than the page which is really poisoned. (While we poison all pages in a huge page in case of hugetlb, we can do this for THP thanks to split_huge_page().) Here we fix two parts: 1. Isolate the poisoned page only to make sure the reported address is the address of poisoned page. 2. make the poisoned page work as the poisoned regular page.

2011-02-02thp: fix splitting of hwpoisoned hugepagesJin Dongming
The poisoned THP is now split with split_huge_page() in collect_procs_anon(). If kmalloc() is failed in collect_procs(), split_huge_page() could not be called. And the work after split_huge_page() for collecting the processes using poisoned page will not be done, too. So the processes using the poisoned page could not be killed. The condition becomes worse when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM == "Y". Because the poisoned THP could not be split, system panic will be caused by VM_BUG_ON(PageTransHuge(page)) in try_to_unmap(). This patch does: 1. move split_huge_page() to the place before collect_procs(). This can be sure the failure of splitting THP is caused by itself. 2. when splitting THP is failed, stop the operations after it. This can avoid unexpected system panic or non sense works.

2011-02-02mlock: operate on any regions with protection != PROT_NONEMichel Lespinasse
As Tao Ma noticed, change 5ecfda0 breaks blktrace. This is because blktrace mmaps a file with PROT_WRITE permissions but without PROT_READ, so my attempt to not unnecessarity break COW during mlock ended up causing mlock to fail with a permission problem. I am proposing to let mlock ignore vma protection in all cases except PROT_NONE. In particular, mlock should not fail for PROT_WRITE regions (as in the blktrace case, which broke at 5ecfda0) or for PROT_EXEC regions (which seem to me like they were always broken).

The comments under "config STUB_POULSBO" are close to correct, but they are not being followed. This patch updates them to reflect the requirements for THERMAL. This build error is caused by STUB_POULSBO selecting ACPI_VIDEO when ACPI_VIDEO's config requirements are not met. ERROR: "thermal_cooling_device_register" [drivers/acpi/video.ko] undefined!

2011-01-31cifs: fix length checks in checkSMBJeff Layton
The cERROR message in checkSMB when the calculated length doesn't match the RFC1001 length is incorrect in many cases. It always says that the RFC1001 length is bigger than the SMB, even when it's actually the reverse. Fix the error message to say the reverse of what it does now when the SMB length goes beyond the end of the received data. Also, clarify the error message when the RFC length is too big. Finally, clarify the comments to show that the 512 byte limit on extra data at the end of the packet is arbitrary.
