2012-02-16i387: fix x86-64 preemption-unsafe user stack save/restoreLinus Torvalds
Commit 5b1cbac37798 ("i387: make irq_fpu_usable() tests more robust") added a sanity check to the #NM handler to verify that we never cause the "Device Not Available" exception in kernel mode. However, that check actually pinpointed a (fundamental) race where we do cause that exception as part of the signal stack FPU state save/restore code. Because we use the floating point instructions themselves to save and restore state directly from user mode, we cannot do that atomically with testing the TS_USEDFPU bit: the user mode access itself may cause a page fault, which causes a task switch, which saves and restores the FP/MMX state from the kernel buffers. This kind of "recursive" FP state save is fine per se, but it means that when the signal stack save/restore gets restarted, it will now take the '#NM' exception we originally tried to avoid. With preemption this can happen even without the page fault - but because of the user access, we cannot just disable preemption around the save/restore instruction. There are various ways to solve this, including using the "enable/disable_page_fault()" helpers to not allow page faults at all during the sequence, and fall back to copying things by hand without the use of the native FP state save/restore instructions. However, the simplest thing to do is to just allow the #NM from kernel space, but fix the race in setting and clearing CR0.TS that this all exposed: the TS bit changes and the TS_USEDFPU bit absolutely have to be atomic wrt scheduling, so while the actual state save/restore can be interrupted and restarted, the act of actually clearing/setting CR0.TS and the TS_USEDFPU bit together must not. Instead of just adding random "preempt_disable/enable()" calls to what is already excessively ugly code, this introduces some helper functions that mostly mirror the "kernel_fpu_begin/end()" functionality, just for the user state instead. Those helper functions should probably eventually replace the other ad-hoc CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU tests too, but I'll need to think about it some more: the task switching functionality in particular needs to expose the difference between the 'prev' and 'next' threads, while the new helper functions intentionally were written to only work with 'current'.

2012-02-16Btrfs: fix deadlock on page lock when doing auto-defragmentMiao Xie
When I ran xfstests circularly on a auto-defragment btrfs, the deadlock happened. Steps to reproduce: [tty0] # export MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o autodefrag" # export TEST_DEV=<partition1> # export TEST_DIR=<mountpoint1> # export SCRATCH_DEV=<partition2> # export SCRATCH_MNT=<mountpoint2> # while [ 1 ] > do > ./check 091 127 263 > sleep 1 > done [tty1] # while [ 1 ] > do > echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches > done Several hours later, the test processes will hang on, and the deadlock will happen on page lock. The reason is that: Auto defrag task Flush thread Test task btrfs_writepages() add ordered extent (including page 1, 2) set page 1 writeback set page 2 writeback endio_fn() end page 2 writeback release page 2 lock page 1 alloc and lock page 2 page 2 is not uptodate btrfs_readpage() start ordered extent() btrfs_writepages() try to lock page 1 so deadlock happens.

2012-02-16powerpc/perf: power_pmu_start restores incorrect values, breaking frequency ↵Anton Blanchard
events perf on POWER stopped working after commit e050e3f0a71b (perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling). That patch exposed a bug in the POWER perf_events code. Since the PMCs count upwards and take an exception when the top bit is set, we want to write 0x80000000 - left in power_pmu_start. We were instead programming in left which effectively disables the counter until we eventually hit 0x80000000. This could take seconds or longer.

2012-02-16powerpc: Disable interrupts early in Program CheckBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Program Check exceptions are the result of WARNs, BUGs, some type of breakpoints, kprobe, and other illegal instructions. We want interrupts (and thus preemption) to remain disabled while doing the initial stage of testing the reason and branching off to a debugger or kprobe, so we are still on the original CPU which makes debugging easier in various cases. This is how the code was intended, hence the local_irq_enable() right in the middle of program_check_exception(). However, the assembly exception prologue for that exception was incorrectly marked as enabling interrupts, which defeats that (and records a redundant enable with lockdep).

2012-02-15drm/i915: do not enable RC6p on Sandy BridgeEugeni Dodonov
With base on latest findings, RC6p seems to be respondible for RC6-related issues on Sandy Bridge platform. To work-around those issues, the previous solution was to completely disable RC6 on Sandy Bridge for the past few releases, even if plain RC6 was not giving any issues. What this patch does is preventing RC6p from being enabled on Sandy Bridge even if users enable RC6 via a kernel parameter. So it won't change the defaults in any way, but will ensure that if users do enable RC6 manually it won't break their machines by enabling this extra state. Proper fix for this (enabling specific RC6 states according to the GPU generation) were proposed for the -next kernel, but we are too late in the release process now to pick such changes.

Bootup with lockdep enabled has been broken on v7 since b46c0f74657d ("ARM: 7321/1: cache-v7: Disable preemption when reading CCSIDR"). This is because v7_setup (which is called very early during boot) calls v7_flush_dcache_all, and the save_and_disable_irqs added by that patch ends up attempting to call into lockdep C code (trace_hardirqs_off()) when we are in no position to execute it (no stack, MMU off).

2012-02-15mac80211: call rate control only after initJohannes Berg
There are situations where we don't have the necessary rate control information yet for station entries, e.g. when associating. This currently doesn't really happen due to the dummy station handling; explicitly disabling rate control when it's not initialised will allow us to remove dummy stations.

2012-02-15regmap: Fix cache defaults initialization from raw cache defaultsLars-Peter Clausen
Currently registers with a value of 0 are ignored when initializing the register defaults from raw defaults. This worked in the past, because registers without a explicit default were assumed to have a default value of 0. This was changed in commit b03622a8 ("regmap: Ensure rbtree syncs registers set to zero properly"). As a result registers, which have a raw default value of 0 are now assumed to have no default. This again can result in unnecessary writes when syncing the cache. It will also result in unnecessary reads for e.g. the first update operation. In the case where readback is not possible this will even let the update operation fail, if the register has not been written to before. So this patch removes the check. Instead it adds a check to ignore raw defaults for registers which are volatile, since those registers are not cached.
