2010-12-06ARM: 6524/1: GIC irq desciptor bug fixChao Xie
gic_set_cpu will directly use irq_desc[]. If CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ is enabled, there is no irq_desc[]. So we need use irq_to_desc(irq) to get the descriptor for irq.

Currently, the kprobes implementation for ARM only supports the ARM instruction set, so it only works if CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL is not enabled.

2010-11-30ARM: 6508/1: vexpress: Correct data alignment in headsmp.S for ↵Dave Martin
CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result, using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL). This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in some circumstances. In general, the following rules should be applied when using data word declaration directives inside code sections: * .quad and .double: .align 3 * .long, .word, .single, .float: .align (or .align 2) * .short: No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2 instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size. immediately after an instruction.

2010-11-30ARM: 6504/1: Thumb-2: Fix long-distance conditional branches in head.S for ↵Dave Martin
Thumb-2. The 32-bit conditional branches in Thumb-2 have a shorter range (+/-512K) than their ARM counterparts (+/-32MB). The linker does not currently generate trampolines to extend the range of these Thumb-2 conditional branches, resulting in link errors when vmlinux is sufficiently large, e.g.: head.o:(.text+0x464): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_THM_JUMP19 This patch forces the longer-range, unconditional branch encoding by use of an explicit IT instruction.

2010-11-30ARM: 6503/1: Thumb-2: Restore sensible zImage header layout for ↵Dave Martin
CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL The code which makes up the zImage header intends to leave a 32-byte gap followed by a branch to the real entry point, a magic number, and a word containing the absolute entry point address. This gets messed up with with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL, because the size of the initial padding NOPs changes. Instead, the header can be made fully compatible by restoring it to ARM. In the Thumb-2 case, we can replace the initial NOPs with a sequence which switches to Thumb and jumps to the real entry point. As a consequence, the zImage entry point is now always ARM, so no special magic is needed any more for the uImage rules in the Thumb-2 case.

2010-11-29Revert "debug_locks: set oops_in_progress if we will log messages."Dave Airlie
This reverts commit e0fdace10e75dac67d906213b780ff1b1a4cc360. On-list discussion seems to suggest that the robustness fixes for printk make this unnecessary and DaveM has also agreed in person at Kernel Summit and on list. The main problem with this code is once we hit a lockdep splat we always keep oops_in_progress set, the console layer uses oops_in_progress with KMS to decide when it should be showing the oops and not showing X, so it causes problems around suspend/resume time when a userspace resume can cause a console switch away from X, only if oops_in_progress is set (which is what we want if an oops actually is in progress, but not because we had a lockdep splat 2 days prior).

2010-11-30tpm: Autodetect itpm devicesMatthew Garrett
Some Lenovos have TPMs that require a quirk to function correctly. This can be autodetected by checking whether the device has a _HID of INTC0102. This is an invalid PNPid, and as such is discarded by the pnp layer - however it's still present in the ACPI code, so we can pull it out that way. This means that the quirk won't be automatically applied on non-ACPI systems, but without ACPI we don't have any way to identify the chip anyway so I don't think that's a great concern.

Its easy to eat all kernel memory and trigger NMI watchdog, using an exploit program that queues unix sockets on top of others. lkml ref : http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/25/8 This mechanism is used in applications, one choice we have is to have a recursion limit. Other limits might be needed as well (if we queue other types of files), since the passfd mechanism is currently limited by socket receive queue sizes only. Add a recursion_level to unix socket, allowing up to 4 levels. Each time we send an unix socket through sendfd mechanism, we copy its recursion level (plus one) to receiver. This recursion level is cleared when socket receive queue is emptied. Reported-by: Марк Коренберг <socketpair@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In commit 58933c64(ucc_geth: Fix the wrong the Rx/Tx FIFO size), the UCC_GETH_UTFTT_INIT is set to 512 based on the recommendation of the QE Reference Manual. But that will sometimes cause tx halt while working in half duplex mode. According to errata draft QE_GENERAL-A003(High Tx Virtual FIFO threshold size can cause UCC to halt), setting UTFTT less than [(UTFS x (M - 8)/M) - 128] will prevent this from happening (M is the minimum buffer size).

2010-11-28inet: Fix __inet_inherit_port() to correctly increment bsockets and num_ownersNagendra Tomar
inet sockets corresponding to passive connections are added to the bind hash using ___inet_inherit_port(). These sockets are later removed from the bind hash using __inet_put_port(). These two functions are not exactly symmetrical. __inet_put_port() decrements hashinfo->bsockets and tb->num_owners, whereas ___inet_inherit_port() does not increment them. This results in both of these going to -ve values. This patch fixes this by calling inet_bind_hash() from ___inet_inherit_port(), which does the right thing.

And in particular, use it in 'pipe_fcntl()'. The other pipe functions do not need to use the 'careful' version, since they are only ever called for things that are already known to be pipes. The normal read/write/ioctl functions are called through the file operations structures, so if a file isn't a pipe, they'd never get called. But pipe_fcntl() is special, and called directly from the generic fcntl code, and needs to use the same careful function that the splice code is using.

2010-11-28NET: wan/x25_asy, move lapb_unregister to x25_asy_close_ttyJiri Slaby
We register lapb when tty is created, but unregister it only when the device is UP. So move the lapb_unregister to x25_asy_close_tty after the device is down. The old behaviour causes ldisc switching to fail each second attempt, because we noted for us that the device is unused, so we use it the second time, but labp layer still have it registered, so it fails obviously.

We were truncating the number of unicast and multicast MAC addresses supported. Additionally, we were incorrectly computing the MAC Address hash (a "1 << N" where we needed a "1ULL << N"). Signed-off-by: Casey Leedom <leedom@chelsio.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Allocating unit from ird might return several error codes not only -EAGAIN, so it should not be changed and returned precisely.

2010-11-28tcp: restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale (#20312)Alexey Dobriyan
tcp_win_from_space() does the following: if (sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale <= 0) return space >> (-sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale); else return space - (space >> sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale); "space" is int. As per C99 6.5.7 (3) shifting int for 32 or more bits is undefined behaviour. Indeed, if sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale is exactly 32, space >> 32 equals space and function returns 0. Which means we busyloop in tcp_fixup_rcvbuf(). Restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale to [-31, 31].
