There were reports of the igb driver unmapping buffers without calling
dma_mapping_error. On closer inspection issues were found in the DMA
debug API and how it handled multiple mappings of the same buffer.
The issue I found is the fact that the debug_dma_mapping_error would
only set the map_err_type to MAP_ERR_CHECKED in the case that the was
only one match for device and device address. However in the case of
non-IOMMU, multiple addresses existed and as a result it was not setting
this field once a second mapping was instantiated. I have resolved this
by changing the search so that it instead will now set MAP_ERR_CHECKED
on the first buffer that matches the device and DMA address that is
currently in the state MAP_ERR_NOT_CHECKED.
A secondary side effect of this patch is that in the case of multiple
buffers using the same address only the last mapping will have a valid
map_err_type. The previous mappings will all end up with map_err_type
set to MAP_ERR_CHECKED because of the dma_mapping_error call in
debug_dma_map_page. However this behavior may be preferable as it means
you will likely only see one real error per multi-mapped buffer, versus
the current behavior of multiple false errors mer multi-mapped buffer.

In check_unmap() it is possible to get into a dead-locked state if
dma_mapping_error is called. The problem is that the bucket is locked in
check_unmap, and locked again by debug_dma_mapping_error which is called
by dma_mapping_error. To resolve that we must release the lock on the
bucket before making the call to dma_mapping_error.

On some revisions of AT91 SoCs, the RTC IMR register is not working.
Instead of elaborating a workaround for that specific SoC or IP version,
we simply use a software variable to store the Interrupt Mask Register
and modify it for each enabling/disabling of an interrupt. The overhead
of this is negligible anyway.
The interrupt mask register (IMR) for the RTC is broken on the AT91SAM9x5
sub-family of SoCs (good overview of the members here:
http://www.eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/AT91SAM9x5 ). The "user visible
effect" is the RTC doesn't work.
That sub-family is less than two years old and only has devicetree (DT)
support and came online circa lk 3.7 . The dust is yet to settle on the
DT stuff at least for AT91 SoCs (translation: lots of stuff is still
broken, so much that it is hard to know where to start).
The fix in the patch is pretty simple: just shadow the silicon IMR
register with a variable in the driver. Some older SoCs (pre-DT) use the
the rtc-at91rm9200 driver (e.g. obviously the AT91RM9200) and they should
not be impacted by the change. There shouldn't be a large volume of
interrupts associated with a RTC.

Booting with 32 TBytes memory hits BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:552! (output
below).
The key hint is "page 4294967296 outside zone".
4294967296 = 0x100000000 (bit 32 is set).
The problem is in include/linux/mmzone.h:
530 static inline unsigned zone_end_pfn(const struct zone *zone)
531 {
532 return zone->zone_start_pfn + zone->spanned_pages;
533 }
zone_end_pfn is "unsigned" (32 bits). Changing it to "unsigned long"
(64 bits) fixes the problem.
zone_end_pfn() was added recently in commit 108bcc96ef70 ("mm: add & use
zone_end_pfn() and zone_spans_pfn()")
Output from the failure.
No AGP bridge found

David said:
Commit 6c0c0d4d1080 ("poweroff: fix bug in orderly_poweroff()")
apparently fixes one bug in orderly_poweroff(), but introduces
another. The comments on orderly_poweroff() claim it can be called
from any context - and indeed we call it from interrupt context in
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/ras.c for example. But since that
commit this is no longer safe, since call_usermodehelper_fns() is not
safe in interrupt context without the UMH_NO_WAIT option.
orderly_poweroff() can be used from any context but UMH_WAIT_EXEC is
sleepable. Move the "force" logic into __orderly_poweroff() and change
orderly_poweroff() to use the global poweroff_work which simply calls
__orderly_poweroff().
While at it, remove the unneeded "int argc" and change argv_split() to
use GFP_KERNEL.
We use the global "bool poweroff_force" to pass the argument, this can
obviously affect the previous request if it is pending/running. So we
only allow the "false => true" transition assuming that the pending
"true" should succeed anyway. If schedule_work() fails after that we
know that work->func() was not called yet, it must see the new value.
This means that orderly_poweroff() becomes async even if we do not run
the command and always succeeds, schedule_work() can only fail if the
work is already pending. We can export __orderly_poweroff() and change
the non-atomic callers which want the old semantics.

accouting
hugetlb_total_pages is used for overcommit calculations but the current
implementation considers only the default hugetlb page size (which is
either the first defined hugepage size or the one specified by
default_hugepagesz kernel boot parameter).
If the system is configured for more than one hugepage size, which is
possible since commit a137e1cc6d6e ("hugetlbfs: per mount huge page
sizes") then the overcommit estimation done by __vm_enough_memory()
(resp. shown by meminfo_proc_show) is not precise - there is an
impression of more available/allowed memory. This can lead to an
unexpected ENOMEM/EFAULT resp. SIGSEGV when memory is accounted.
Testcase:
boot: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=1
the default overcommit ratio is 50
before patch:
egrep 'CommitLimit' /proc/meminfo
CommitLimit: 55434168 kB
after patch:
egrep 'CommitLimit' /proc/meminfo
CommitLimit: 54909880 kB

wake_up_klogd() is useless when CONFIG_PRINTK=n because neither printk()
nor printk_sched() are in use and there are actually no waiter on
log_wait waitqueue. It should be a stub in this case for users like
bust_spinlocks().
Otherwise this results in this warning when CONFIG_PRINTK=n and
CONFIG_IRQ_WORK=n:
kernel/built-in.o In function `wake_up_klogd':
(.text.wake_up_klogd+0xb4): undefined reference to `irq_work_queue'
To fix this, provide an off-case for wake_up_klogd() when
CONFIG_PRINTK=n.
There is much more from console_unlock() and other console related code
in printk.c that should be moved under CONFIG_PRINTK. But for now,
focus on a minimal fix as we passed the merged window already.

We've had several reports of people attempting to mount Windows 8 shares
and getting failures with a return code of -EINVAL. The default sec=
mode changed recently to sec=ntlmssp. With that, we expect and parse a
SPNEGO blob from the server in the NEGOTIATE reply.
The current decode_negTokenInit function first parses all of the
mechTypes and then tries to parse the rest of the negTokenInit reply.
The parser however currently expects a mechListMIC or nothing to follow the
mechTypes, but Windows 8 puts a mechToken field there instead to carry
some info for the new NegoEx stuff.
In practice, we don't do anything with the fields after the mechTypes
anyway so I don't see any real benefit in continuing to parse them.
This patch just has the kernel ignore the fields after the mechTypes.
We'll probably need to reinstate some of this if we ever want to support
NegoEx.

While testing the mgag200 kms driver on the HP ProLiant Gen8, a
bug was seen. Once the bootloader would load the selected kernel,
the screen would go black. At first it was assumed that the
mgag200 kms driver was hanging. But after setting up the grub
serial output, it was seen that the driver was being loaded
properly. After trying serval monitors, one finaly displayed
the message "Frequency Out of Range". By comparing the kms pll
algorithm with the previous mgag200 xorg driver pll algorithm,
discrepencies were found. Once the kms pll algorithm was
modified, the expected pll values were produced. This fix was
tested on several monitors of varying native resolutions.

When reading the dm cache metadata from disk, ignore the policy hints
unless they were generated by the same major version number of the same
policy module.
The hints are considered to be private data belonging to the specific
module that generated them and there is no requirement for them to make
sense to different versions of the policy that generated them.
Policy modules are all required to work fine if no previous hints are
supplied (or if existing hints are lost).

We have found a race in the optimisation used in the dm cache
writethrough implementation. Currently, dm core sends the cache target
two bios, one for the origin device and one for the cache device and
these are processed in parallel. This patch avoids the race by
changing the code back to a simpler (slower) implementation which
processes the two writes in series, one after the other, until we can
develop a complete fix for the problem.
When the cache is in writethrough mode it needs to send WRITE bios to
both the origin and cache devices.
Previously we've been implementing this by having dm core query the
cache target on every write to find out how many copies of the bio it
wants. The cache will ask for two bios if the block is in the cache,
and one otherwise.
Then main problem with this is it's racey. At the time this check is
made the bio hasn't yet been submitted and so isn't being taken into
account when quiescing a block for migration (promotion or demotion).
This means a single bio may be submitted when two were needed because
the block has since been promoted to the cache (catastrophic), or two
bios where only one is needed (harmless).
I really don't want to start entering bios into the quiescing system
(deferred_set) in the get_num_write_bios callback. Instead this patch
simplifies things; only one bio is submitted by the core, this is
first written to the origin and then the cache device in series.
Obviously this will have a latency impact.
deferred_writethrough_bios is introduced to record bios that must be
later issued to the cache device from the worker thread. This deferred
submission, after the origin bio completes, is required given that we're
in interrupt context (writethrough_endio).

Return error if cache_create() fails.
A missing return check made cache_ctr continue even after an error in
cache_create() resulting in the cache object being destroyed. So a
simple failure like an odd number of cache policy config value arguments
would result in an oops.

A deadlock was found in the prefetch code in the dm verity map
function. This patch fixes this by transferring the prefetch
to a worker thread and skipping it completely if kmalloc fails.
If generic_make_request is called recursively, it queues the I/O
request on the current->bio_list without making the I/O request
and returns. The routine making the recursive call cannot wait
for the I/O to complete.
The deadlock occurs when one thread grabs the bufio_client
mutex and waits for an I/O to complete but the I/O is queued
on another thread's current->bio_list and is waiting to get
the mutex held by the first thread.
The fix recognises that prefetching is not essential. If memory
can be allocated, it queues the prefetch request to the worker thread,
but if not, it does nothing.

Fix a discard granularity calculation to work for non power of 2 block sizes.
In order for thinp to passdown discard bios to the underlying data
device, the data device must have a discard granularity that is a
factor of the thinp block size. Originally this check was done by
using bitops since the block_size was known to be a power of two.
Introduced by commit f13945d75730081830b6f3360266950e2b7c9067

Fix a bug in dm_btree_remove that could leave leaf values with incorrect
reference counts. The effect of this was that removal of a shared block
could result in the space maps thinking the block was no longer used.
More concretely, if you have a thin device and a snapshot of it, sending
a discard to a shared region of the thin could corrupt the snapshot.
Thinp uses a 2-level nested btree to store it's mappings. This first
level is indexed by thin device, and the second level by logical
block.
Often when we're removing an entry in this mapping tree we need to
rebalance nodes, which can involve shadowing them, possibly creating a
copy if the block is shared. If we do create a copy then children of
that node need to have their reference counts incremented. In this
way reference counts percolate down the tree as shared trees diverge.
The rebalance functions were incrementing the children at the
appropriate time, but they were always assuming the children were
internal nodes. This meant the leaf values (in our case packed
block/flags entries) were not being incremented.

In data=journal mode, if we unmount the file system before a
transaction has a chance to complete, when the journal inode is being
evicted, we can end up calling into jbd2_log_wait_commit() for the
last transaction, after the journalling machinery has been shut down.
Arguably we should adjust ext4_should_journal_data() to return FALSE
for the journal inode, but the only place it matters is
ext4_evict_inode(), and so to save a bit of CPU time, and to make the
patch much more obviously correct by inspection(tm), we'll fix it by
explicitly not trying to waiting for a journal commit when we are
evicting the journal inode, since it's guaranteed to never succeed in
this case.
This can be easily replicated via:
mount -t ext4 -o data=journal /dev/vdb /vdb ; umount /vdb

Commit 84c17543ab56 (ext4: move work from io_end to inode) triggered a
regression when running xfstest #270 when the file system is mounted
with dioread_nolock.
The problem is that after ext4_evict_inode() calls ext4_ioend_wait(),
this guarantees that last io_end structure has been freed, but it does
not guarantee that the workqueue structure, which was moved into the
inode by commit 84c17543ab56, is actually finished. Once
ext4_flush_completed_IO() calls ext4_free_io_end() on CPU #1, this
will allow ext4_ioend_wait() to return on CPU #2, at which point the
evict_inode() codepath can race against the workqueue code on CPU #1
accessing EXT4_I(inode)->i_unwritten_work to find the next item of
work to do.
Fix this by calling cancel_work_sync() in ext4_ioend_wait(), which
will be renamed ext4_ioend_shutdown(), since it is only used by
ext4_evict_inode(). Also, move the call to ext4_ioend_shutdown()
until after truncate_inode_pages() and filemap_write_and_wait() are
called, to make sure all dirty pages have been written back and
flushed from the page cache first.

Commit 28c70f162 ("drm/i915: use the gmbus irq for waits") switched to
using GMBUS irqs instead of GPIO bit-banging for chipset generations 4
and above.
It turns out though that on many systems this leads to spurious interrupts
being generated, long after the register write to disable the IRQs has been
issued.
Typically this results in the spurious interrupt source getting
disabled:

[ 9.640731] Disabling IRQ #16
The really curious thing is now that irq 16 is _not_ the interrupt for
the i915 driver when using MSI, but it _is_ the interrupt when not
using MSI. So by all indications it seems like gmbus is able to
generate a legacy (shared) interrupt in MSI mode on some
configurations. I've tried to reproduce this and the differentiating
thing seems to be that on unaffected systems no other device uses irq
16 (which seems to be the non-MSI intel gfx interrupt on all gm45).
I have no idea how that even can happen.
To avoid tempting this elephant into a rage, just disable gmbus
interrupt support on gen 4.
v2: Improve the commit message with exact details of what's going on.
Also add a comment in the code to warn against this particular
elephant in the room.
v3: Move the comment explaing how gen4 blows up next to the definition
of HAS_GMBUS_IRQ to keep the code-flow straight. Suggested by Chris
Wilson.

Mantas Mikulėnas reported that his graphics hardware failed to
initialise after commit f9a37be0f02a ("x86: Use PCI setup data").
The aim of this commit was to ensure that ROM images were available on
some Apple systems that don't expose the GPU ROM via any other source.
In this case, UEFI appears to have provided a broken ROM image that we
were using even though there was a perfectly valid ROM available via
other sources. The simplest way to handle this seems to be to just
re-order pci_map_rom() and leave any firmare-supplied ROM to last.

If the guest specifies a IOAPIC_REG_SELECT with an invalid value and follows
that with a read of the IOAPIC_REG_WINDOW KVM does not properly validate
that request. ioapic_read_indirect contains an
ASSERT(redir_index < IOAPIC_NUM_PINS), but the ASSERT has no effect in
non-debug builds. In recent kernels this allows a guest to cause a kernel
oops by reading invalid memory. In older kernels (pre-3.3) this allows a
guest to read from large ranges of host memory.

There is a potential use after free issue with the handling of
MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME. If the guest specifies a GPA in a movable or removable
memory such as frame buffers then KVM might continue to write to that
address even after it's removed via KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION. KVM pins
the page in memory so it's unlikely to cause an issue, but if the user
space component re-purposes the memory previously used for the guest, then
the guest will be able to corrupt that memory.

(CVE-2013-1796)
If the guest sets the GPA of the time_page so that the request to update the
time straddles a page then KVM will write onto an incorrect page. The
write is done byusing kmap atomic to get a pointer to the page for the time
structure and then performing a memcpy to that page starting at an offset
that the guest controls. Well behaved guests always provide a 32-byte aligned
address, however a malicious guest could use this to corrupt host kernel

The Kconfig entry for DEBUG_ERRORS is a verbatim copy of the former arm
entry for that symbol. It got removed in v2.6.39 because it wasn't
actually used anywhere. There are still no users of DEBUG_ERRORS so
remove this entry too.

Config option GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_DEPRECATED was removed in commit
78c89825649a9a5ed526c507603196f467d781a5 ("genirq: Remove the now obsolete
config options and select statements"), but the select was accidentally
reintroduced in commit 8c2c3df31e3b87cb5348e48776c366ebd1dc5a7a ("arm64:
Build infrastructure").

This patch introduces a constant limit of the fragment queue hash
table bucket list lengths. Currently the limit 128 is choosen somewhat
arbitrary and just ensures that we can fill up the fragment cache with
empty packets up to the default ip_frag_high_thresh limits. It should
just protect from list iteration eating considerable amounts of cpu.
If we reach the maximum length in one hash bucket a warning is printed.
This is implemented on the caller side of inet_frag_find to distinguish
between the different users of inet_fragment.c.
I dropped the out of memory warning in the ipv4 fragment lookup path,
because we already get a warning by the slab allocator.

This patch fixes a scatter-gather regression introduced with
commit 5640f768 net: use a per task frag allocator
Now the qeth driver can cope with bigger framents and split a fragment in
sub framents if required.
