2012-10-22USB: update documentation for URB_ISO_ASAPAlan Stern
This patch (as1611) updates the USB documentation and kerneldoc to give a more precise meaning for the URB_ISO_ASAP flag and to explain more of the details of scheduling for isochronous URBs.

2012-10-22EHCI: replace mult/div with bit-mask operationAlan Stern
This patch (as1610) replaces multiplication and divison operations in ehci-hcd's isochronous scheduling code with a bit-mask operation, taking advantage of the fact that isochronous periods are always powers of 2.

2012-10-22EHCI: use the isochronous scheduling thresholdAlan Stern
This patch (as1609) changes the way ehci-hcd uses the "Isochronous Scheduling Threshold" in its calculations. Until now the code has ignored the threshold except for certain Intel PCI-based controllers. This violates the EHCI spec. The new code takes the threshold into account always, removing the need for the fs_i_thresh quirk flag. In addition it implements the "full frame cache" setting more efficiently, moving forward only as far as the next frame boundary instead of always moving forward 8 microframes.

2012-10-22EHCI: improved logic for isochronous schedulingAlan Stern
This patch (as1608) reworks the logic used by ehci-hcd for scheduling isochronous transfers. Now the modular calculations are all based on a window that starts at the last frame scanned for isochronous completions. No transfer descriptors for any earlier frames can possibly remain on the schedule, so there can be no confusion from schedule wrap-around. This removes the need for a "slop" region of arbitrary size. There's no need to check for URBs that are longer than the schedule length. With the old code they could throw things off by wrapping around and appearing to end in the near future rather than the distant future. Now such confusion isn't possible, and the existing test for submissions that extend too far into the future will also catch those that exceed the schedule length. (But there still has to be an initial test to handle the case where the schedule already extends as far into the future as possible.) Delays caused by IRQ latency won't confuse the algorithm unless they are ridiculously long (over 250 ms); they will merely reduce how far into the future new transfers can be scheduled. A few people have reported problems caused by delays of 50 ms or so. Now instead of failing completely, isochronous transfers will experience a brief glitch and then continue normally. (Whether this is truly a good thing is debatable. A latency as large as 50 ms generally indicates a bug is present, and complete failure of audio or video transfers draws people's attention pretty vividly. Making the transfers more robust also makes it easier for such bugs to remain undetected.) Finally, ehci->next_frame is renamed to ehci->last_iso_frame, because that better describes what it is: the last frame to have been scanned for isochronous completions.

2012-10-20arm64: fix alignment padding in assembly codeMarc Zyngier
An interesting effect of using the generic version of linkage.h is that the padding is defined in terms of x86 NOPs, which can have even more interesting effects when the assembly code looks like this: ENTRY(func1) mov x0, xzr ENDPROC(func1) // fall through ENTRY(func2) mov x0, #1 ret ENDPROC(func2) Admittedly, the code is not very nice. But having code from another architecture doesn't look completely sane either. The fix is to add arm64's version of linkage.h, which causes the insertion of proper AArch64 NOPs.

2012-10-19MODSIGN: Move the magic string to the end of a module and eliminate the searchDavid Howells
Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the signature data instead of before it. This allows module_sig_check() to be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the magic string. Instead we just need to do a single memcmp(). This works because at the end of the signature data there is the fixed-length signature information block. This block then falls immediately prior to the magic number. From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module data.

/proc/<pid>/numa_maps scans vma and show mempolicy under mmap_sem. It sometimes accesses task->mempolicy which can be freed without mmap_sem and numa_maps can show some garbage while scanning. This patch tries to take reference count of task->mempolicy at reading numa_maps before calling get_vma_policy(). By this, task->mempolicy will not be freed until numa_maps reaches its end.

2012-10-19kbuild: Fix module signature generationLinus Torvalds
Rusty had clearly not actually tested his module signing changes that I (trustingly) applied as commit e2a666d52b48 ("kbuild: sign the modules at install time"). That commit had multiple bugs: - using "${#VARIABLE}" to get the number of characters in a shell variable may look clever, but it's locale-dependent: it returns the number of *characters*, not bytes. And we do need bytes. So don't use "${#..}" expansion, do the stupid "wc -c" thing instead (where "c" stands for "bytes", not "characters", despite the letter. - Rusty had confused "siglen" and "signerlen", and his conversion didn't set "signerlen" at all, and incorrectly set "siglen" to the size of the signer, not the size of the signature. End result: the modified sign-file script did create something that superficially *looked* like a signature, but didn't actually work at all, and would fail the signature check. Oops. Tssk, tssk, Rusty. But Rusty was definitely right that this whole thing should be rewritten in perl by somebody who has the perl-fu to do so. That is not me, though - I'm just doing an emergency fix for the shell script. Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-10-19Merge commit '5bc66170dc486556a1e36fd384463536573f4b82' into x86/urgentH. Peter Anvin
From Borislav Petkov <bp@amd64.org>: Below is a RAS fix which reverts the addition of a sysfs attribute which we agreed is not needed, post-factum. And this should go in now because that sysfs attribute is going to end up in 3.7 otherwise and thus exposed to userspace; removing it then would be a lot harder. This is done as a merge rather than a simple patch/cherry-pick since the baseline for this patch was not in the previous x86/urgent. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>
2012-10-19x86, MCE: Remove bios_cmci_threshold sysfs attributeBorislav Petkov
450cc201038f3 ("x86/mce: Provide boot argument to honour bios-set CMCI threshold") added the bios_cmci_threshold sysfs attribute which was supposed to communicate to userspace tools that BIOS CMCI threshold has been honoured. However, this info is not of any importance to userspace - it should rather get the actual error count it has been thresholded already from MCi_STATUS[38:52]. So drop this before it becomes a used interface (good thing we caught this early in 3.7-rc1, right after the merge window closed). Cc: Naveen N.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media Pull media fixes from Mauro Carvalho Chehab: "Media fixes for: - one Kconfig fix patch; - one patch fixing DocBook breakage due to the drivers/media UAPI changes; - the remaining UAPI media changes (DVB API). I'm aware that is is a little late for the UAPI renames for the DVB API, but IMHO, it is better to merge it for 3.7, due to two reasons: 1) There is a major rename at 3.7 (not only uapi changes, but also the entire media drivers were reorganized on 3.7, in order to simplify the Kconfig logic, and easy drivers selection, especially for hybrid devices). By confining all those renames there at 3.7 it will cause all the harm at for media developers on just one shot. Stable backports upstream and at distros will likely welcome it as well, as they won't need to check what changed on 3.7 and what was postponed for on 3.8. 2) The V4L2 DocBook Makefile creates a cross-reference between the media API headers and the specs. This helps us _a_lot_ to be sure that all API improvements are properly documented. Every time a header changes from one place to another, DocBook/media/Makefile needs to be patched. Currently, the DocBook breakage patch depends on the DVB UAPI." * 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: [media] Kconfig: Fix dependencies for driver autoselect options DocBook/media/Makefile: Fix build due to uapi breakage UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate include/linux/dvb

2012-10-18fs, xattr: fix bug when removing a name not in xattr listDavid Rientjes
Commit 38f38657444d ("xattr: extract simple_xattr code from tmpfs") moved some code from tmpfs but introduced a subtle bug along the way. If the name passed to simple_xattr_remove() does not exist in the list of xattrs, then it is possible to call kfree(new_xattr) when new_xattr is actually initialized to itself on the stack via uninitialized_var(). This causes a BUG() since the memory was not allocated via the slab allocator and was not bypassed through to the page allocator because it was too large. Initialize the local variable to NULL so the kfree() never takes place.
