Merge batch of fixes from Andrew Morton: "The simple_open() cleanup was held back while I wanted for laggards to merge things. I still need to send a few checkpoint/restore patches. I've been wobbly about merging them because I'm wobbly about the overall prospects for success of the project. But after speaking with Pavel at the LSF conference, it sounds like they're further toward completion than I feared - apparently davem is at the "has stopped complaining" stage regarding the net changes.

2012-04-05simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()Stephen Boyd
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open(). This replacement was done with the following semantic patch: <smpl> @ open @ identifier open_f != simple_open; identifier i, f; @@ -int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) -{ ( -if (i->i_private) -f->private_data = i->i_private; | -f->private_data = i->i_private; ) -return 0; -} @ has_open depends on open @ identifier fops; identifier open.open_f; @@ struct file_operations fops = { ... -.open = open_f, +.open = simple_open, ... }; </smpl> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-04-05sysrq: use SEND_SIG_FORCED instead of force_sig()Anton Vorontsov
Change send_sig_all() to use do_send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_FORCED) instead of force_sig(SIGKILL). With the recent changes we do not need force_ to kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks. And this is more correct. force_sig() can race with the exiting thread, while do_send_sig_info(group => true) kill the whole process. Some more notes from Oleg Nesterov: > Just one note. This change makes no difference for sysrq_handle_kill(). > But it obviously changes the behaviour sysrq_handle_term(). I think > this is fine, if you want to really kill the task which blocks/ignores > SIGTERM you can use sysrq_handle_kill(). > > Even ignoring the reasons why force_sig() is simply wrong here, > force_sig(SIGTERM) looks strange. The task won't be killed if it has > a handler, but SIG_IGN can't help. However if it has the handler > but blocks SIGTERM temporary (this is very common) it will be killed. Also, > force_sig() can't kill the process if the main thread has already > exited. IOW, it is trivial to create the process which can't be > killed by sysrq. So, this patch fixes the issue.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells: "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion dependencies. I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it.. * tag 'split-asm_system_h-for-linus-20120328' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system: (38 commits) Delete all instances of asm/system.h Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h Add #includes needed to permit the removal of asm/system.h Move all declarations of free_initmem() to linux/mm.h Disintegrate asm/system.h for OpenRISC Split arch_align_stack() out from asm-generic/system.h Split the switch_to() wrapper out of asm-generic/system.h Move the asm-generic/system.h xchg() implementation to asm-generic/cmpxchg.h Create asm-generic/barrier.h Make asm-generic/cmpxchg.h #include asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h Disintegrate asm/system.h for Xtensa Disintegrate asm/system.h for Unicore32 [based on ver #3, changed by gxt] Disintegrate asm/system.h for Tile Disintegrate asm/system.h for Sparc Disintegrate asm/system.h for SH Disintegrate asm/system.h for Score Disintegrate asm/system.h for S390 Disintegrate asm/system.h for PowerPC Disintegrate asm/system.h for PA-RISC Disintegrate asm/system.h for MN10300 ...

2012-03-28serial: sh-sci: fix a race of DMA submit_tx on transferYoshii Takashi
When DMA is enabled, sh-sci transfer begins with uart_start() sci_start_tx() if (cookie_tx < 0) schedule_work() Then, starts DMA when wq scheduled, -- (A) process_one_work() work_fn_rx() cookie_tx = desc->submit_tx() And finishes when DMA transfer ends, -- (B) sci_dma_tx_complete() async_tx_ack() cookie_tx = -EINVAL (possible another schedule_work()) This A to B sequence is not reentrant, since controlling variables (for example, cookie_tx above) are not queues nor lists. So, they must be invoked as A B A B..., otherwise results in kernel crash. To ensure the sequence, sci_start_tx() seems to test if cookie_tx < 0 (represents "not used") to call schedule_work(). But cookie_tx will not be set (to a cookie, also means "used") until in the middle of work queue scheduled function work_fn_tx(). This gap between the test and set allows the breakage of the sequence under the very frequently call of uart_start(). Another gap between async_tx_ack() and another schedule_work() results in the same issue, too. This patch introduces a new condition "cookie_tx == 0" just to mark it is "busy" and assign it within spin-locked region to fill the gaps.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc Pull powerpc merge from Benjamin Herrenschmidt: "Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window. It is going to be a bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to maintain and that nobody really used anymore. Here are some of the highlights: - Legacy iSeries is gone. Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks hopefully. - The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"... it's a rewrite of a mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the new implementation hopefully being much more reliable. Thanks Mahesh Salgaonkar. - The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling & recovery) got a big spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare. The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is there. Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is not very nice and which Grant objects to. I will have a patch soon that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully getting rid of the need for that pointer completely). Thanks Gavin Shan. - I dug into our exception & interrupt handling code to improve the way we do lazy interrupt handling (and make it work properly with "edge" triggered interrupt sources), and while at it found & fixed a wagon of issues in those areas, including adding support for page fault retry & fatal signals on page faults. - Your usual random batch of small fixes & updates, including a bunch of new embedded boards, both Freescale and APM based ones, etc..."

2012-03-21mm, oom: force oom kill on sysrq+fDavid Rientjes
The oom killer chooses not to kill a thread if: - an eligible thread has already been oom killed and has yet to exit, and - an eligible thread is exiting but has yet to free all its memory and is not the thread attempting to currently allocate memory. SysRq+F manually invokes the global oom killer to kill a memory-hogging task. This is normally done as a last resort to free memory when no progress is being made or to test the oom killer itself. For both uses, we always want to kill a thread and never defer. This patch causes SysRq+F to always kill an eligible thread and can be used to force a kill even if another oom killed thread has failed to exit.

2012-03-14serial: PL011: clear pending interruptsLinus Walleij
Chanho Min reported that when the boot loader transfers control to the kernel, there may be pending interrupts causing the UART to lock up in an eternal loop trying to pick tokens from the FIFO (since the RX interrupt flag indicates there are tokens) while in practice there are no tokens - in fact there is only a pending IRQ flag. This patch address the issue with a combination of two patches suggested by Russell King that clears and mask all interrupts at probe() and clears any pending error and RX interrupts at port startup time. We suspect the spurious interrupts are a side-effect of switching the UART from FIFO to non-FIFO mode.

Delete the needless back and forth and just pass in the struct port directly. Rename the function to have "_port" in its name, so the name <--> args relationship is consistent with the other serial_in/out vs serial_port_in/out function classes.

2012-03-09serial: use serial_port_in/out vs serial_in/out in 8250Paul Gortmaker
The serial_in and serial_out helpers are expecting to operate on an 8250_port struct. These in turn go after the contained normal port struct which actually has the actual in/out accessors. But what is happening in some cases, is that a function is passed in a port struct, and it runs container_of to get the 8250_port struct, and then it uses serial_in/out helpers on that. But when you do, it goes full circle, since it jumps back inside the 8250_port to find the contained port struct (which we already knew!). So, if we are operating in a scope where we know the struct port, then use the serial_port_in/out helpers and avoid the bouncing around. If we don't have the struct port handy, and it isn't worth making a local for it, then just leave things as-is which uses the serial_in/out helpers that will resolve the 8250_port onto the struct port. Mostly, gcc figures this out on its own -- so this doesn't bring to the table any revolutionary runtime delta. However, it is somewhat misleading to always hammer away on 8250 structs, when the actual underlying property isn't at all 8250 specific -- and this change makes that clear.

2012-03-09serial: reduce number of indirections in 8250 codePaul Gortmaker
The serial_8250_port struct contains within a serial_port struct and many times one or the other, or both are in scope within functions via a passed in arg, or via container_of. However there are a lot of cases where we have access directly to the port pointer, but yet go through the parent 8250_port structure instead to get it. These should just use the port struct directly. Similarly there are cases where it makes sense (from a code cleanliness point of view) to declare a local for the port struct, so we aren't going through the parent 8250_port struct repeatedly to get to it. We get a small reduction in text size, but it appears that gcc was smart enough to internally be doing most of this already, so the readability improvement is the larger gain.
