The qdio SBAL entry flag is made-up of four different values that are
independent of one another. Some of the bits are reserved by the
hardware and should not be changed by qdio. Currently all four values
are overwritten since the SBAL entry flag is defined as an u32.
Split the SBAL entry flag into four u8's as defined by the hardware
and don't touch the reserved bits.

commit 9ff4cfb3fcfd48b49fdd9be7381b3be340853aa4 ([S390] kvm-390: Let
kernel exit SIE instruction on work) fixed a problem of commit
commit cd3b70f5d4d82f85d1e1d6e822f38ae098cf7c72 ([S390] virtualization
aware cpu measurement) but uncovered another one.
If a kvm guest accesses guest real memory that doesnt exist, the
page fault handler calls the sie hook, which then rewrites
the return psw from sie_inst to either sie_exit or sie_reenter.
On return, the page fault handler will then detect the wrong access
as a kernel fault causing a kernel oops in sie_reenter or sie_exit.
We have to add these two addresses to the exception table to allow
graceful exits.

ARM: Tegra: Harmony: Fix conflicting GPIO numbering
|
|
Currently, both the WM8903 and TPS6586x chips attempt to register with
gpiolib using the same GPIO numbers. This causes the audio driver to
fail to initialize.
To solve this, add a define to board-harmony.h for the TPS6586x, and make
board-harmony-power.c use this define, instead of directly referencing
TEGRA_NR_GPIOS.
This fixes a regression introduced by commit
6f168f2fa60f87e85e0df25e87e2372f22f5eb7c.

fs/btrfs/delayed-inode.c: In function 'btrfs_delayed_update_inode':
fs/btrfs/delayed-inode.c:1598:6: warning: 'ret' may be used

Introduced by commit 16cdcec736cd ("btrfs: implement delayed inode items

This fixes a bug in btrfs_update_inode(): if the returned value from
btrfs_delayed_update_inode is a nonzero garbage, inode stat data are not
updated and several call paths may hit a BUG_ON or fail with strange

With xfstest 254 I can panic the box every time with the inode number caching
stuff on. This is because we clean the inodes out when we delete the subvolume,
but then we write out the inode cache which adds an inode to the subvolume inode
tree, and then when it gets evicted again the root gets added back on the dead
roots list and is deleted again, so we have a double free. To stop this from
happening just return 0 if refs is 0 (and we're not the tree root since tree
root always has refs of 0). With this fix 254 no longer panics. Thanks,

The current scrub implementation reuses bios and pages as often as possible,
allocating them only on start and releasing them when finished. This leads
to more problems with the block layer than it's worth. The elevator gets
confused when there are more pages added to the bio than bi_size suggests.
This patch completely rips out the reuse of bios and pages and allocates
them freshly for each submit.

This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c.
It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.
It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").
It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.
And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
"It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a
large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
data in the quoted bits further down).
...
Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
process that could have emptied the PTY."
which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a.
Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

UBIFS maintains per-filesystem and global clean znode counters
('c->clean_zn_cnt' and 'ubifs_clean_zn_cnt'). It is important to maintain
correct values there since the shrinker relies on 'ubifs_clean_zn_cnt'.
However, in case of failures during commit the counters were corrupted. E.g.,
if a failure happens in the middle of 'write_index()', then some nodes in the
commit list ('c->cnext') are marked as clean, and some are marked as dirty. And
the 'ubifs_destroy_tnc_subtree()' frees does not retrun correct count, and we
end up with non-zero 'c->clean_zn_cnt' when unmounting. This means that if we
have 2 file-sytem and one of them fails, and we unmount it,
'ubifs_clean_zn_cnt' stays incorrect and confuses the shrinker.

UBIFS leaks memory on error path in 'ubifs_jnl_update()' in case of write

Sometimes VM asks the shrinker to return amount of objects it can shrink,
and we return the ubifs_clean_zn_cnt in that case. However, it is possible
that this counter is negative for a short period of time, due to the way
UBIFS TNC code updates it. And I can observe the following warnings sometimes:
shrink_slab: ubifs_shrinker+0x0/0x2b7 [ubifs] negative objects to delete nr=-8541616642706119788
This patch makes sure UBIFS never returns negative count of objects.

In ad198x_power_eapd(), wrong pin NIDs are used for controlling EAPD for
HP and Front outputs of AD1988/AD1989. These are actually same with the
ones for AD1984 & co, port-A is 0x11 and port-D 0x12.

This function attempts to free one fragment beyond the number of
fragments that were actually mapped. This patch brings back the limit
to the correct spot.

Because there is a possibility that skb is kfree_skb()ed and zero cleared
after ndo_start_xmit, we should not see the contents of skb like skb->len and
skb->dev->name after ndo_start_xmit. But trace_net_dev_xmit does that
and causes panic by NULL pointer dereference.
This patch fixes trace_net_dev_xmit not to see the contents of skb directly.
If you want to reproduce this panic,
1. Get tracepoint of net_dev_xmit on
2. Create 2 guests on KVM
2. Make 2 guests use virtio_net
4. Execute netperf from one to another for a long time as a network burden
5. host will panic(It takes about 30 minutes)
