2013-04-16KVM: Call common update function when ioapic entry changed.Yang Zhang
Both TMR and EOI exit bitmap need to be updated when ioapic changed or vcpu's id/ldr/dfr changed. So use common function instead eoi exit bitmap specific function.

2013-03-19inet: limit length of fragment queue hash table bucket listsHannes Frederic Sowa
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.

2013-03-17net: cdc_ncm, cdc_mbim: allow user to prefer NCM for backwards compatibilityBjørn Mork
commit bd329e1 ("net: cdc_ncm: do not bind to NCM compatible MBIM devices") introduced a new policy, preferring MBIM for dual NCM/MBIM functions if the cdc_mbim driver was enabled. This caused a regression for users wanting to use NCM. Devices implementing NCM backwards compatibility according to section 3.2 of the MBIM v1.0 specification allow either NCM or MBIM on a single USB function, using different altsettings. The cdc_ncm and cdc_mbim drivers will both probe such functions, and must agree on a common policy for selecting either MBIM or NCM. Until now, this policy has been set at build time based on CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_MBIM. Use a module parameter to set the system policy at runtime, allowing the user to prefer NCM on systems with the cdc_mbim driver.

2013-03-15perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after suspend/resumeStephane Eranian
This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS) after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS measurement to crash when running on CPU0. The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0, the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.

2013-03-14list: Fix double fetch of pointer in hlist_entry_safe()Paul E. McKenney
The current version of hlist_entry_safe() fetches the pointer twice, once to test for NULL and the other to compute the offset back to the enclosing structure. This is OK for normal lock-based use because in that case, the pointer cannot change. However, when the pointer is protected by RCU (as in "rcu_dereference(p)"), then the pointer can change at any time. This use case can result in the following sequence of events: 1. CPU 0 invokes hlist_entry_safe(), fetches the RCU-protected pointer as sees that it is non-NULL. 2. CPU 1 invokes hlist_del_rcu(), deleting the entry that CPU 0 just fetched a pointer to. Because this is the last entry in the list, the pointer fetched by CPU 0 is now NULL. 3. CPU 0 refetches the pointer, obtains NULL, and then gets a NULL-pointer crash. This commit therefore applies gcc's "({ })" statement expression to create a temporary variable so that the specified pointer is fetched only once, avoiding the above sequence of events. Please note that it is the caller's responsibility to use rcu_dereference() as needed. This allows RCU-protected uses to work correctly without imposing any additional overhead on the non-RCU case.

2013-03-14skb: Propagate pfmemalloc on skb from head page onlyPavel Emelyanov
Hi. I'm trying to send big chunks of memory from application address space via TCP socket using vmsplice + splice like this mem = mmap(128Mb); vmsplice(pipe[1], mem); /* splice memory into pipe */ splice(pipe[0], tcp_socket); /* send it into network */ When I'm lucky and a huge page splices into the pipe and then into the socket _and_ client and server ends of the TCP connection are on the same host, communicating via lo, the whole connection gets stuck! The sending queue becomes full and app stops writing/splicing more into it, but the receiving queue remains empty, and that's why. The __skb_fill_page_desc observes a tail page of a huge page and erroneously propagates its page->pfmemalloc value onto socket (the pfmemalloc on tail pages contain garbage). Then this skb->pfmemalloc leaks through lo and due to the tcp_v4_rcv sk_filter if (skb->pfmemalloc && !sock_flag(sk, SOCK_MEMALLOC)) /* true */ return -ENOMEM goto release_and_discard; no packets reach the socket. Even TCP re-transmits are dropped by this, as skb cloning clones the pfmemalloc flag as well. That said, here's the proper page->pfmemalloc propagation onto socket: we must check the huge-page's head page only, other pages' pfmemalloc and mapping values do not contain what is expected in this place. However, I'm not sure whether this fix is _complete_, since pfmemalloc propagation via lo also oesn't look great. Both, bit propagation from page to skb and this check in sk_filter, were introduced by c48a11c7 (netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb), in v3.5 so Mel and stable@ are in Cc.

2013-03-14mtd: nand: reintroduce NAND_NO_READRDY as NAND_NEED_READRDYBrian Norris
This partially reverts commit 1696e6bc2ae83734e64e206ac99766ea19e9a14e ("mtd: nand: kill NAND_NO_READRDY"). In that patch I overlooked a few things. The original documentation for NAND_NO_READRDY included "True for all large page devices, as they do not support autoincrement." I was conflating "not support autoincrement" with the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR option, which was in fact doing nothing. So, when I dropped NAND_NO_AUTOINCR, I concluded that I then could harmlessly drop NAND_NO_READRDY. But of course the fact the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR was doing nothing didn't mean NAND_NO_READRDY was doing nothing... So, NAND_NO_READRDY is re-introduced as NAND_NEED_READRDY and applied only to those few remaining small-page NAND which needed it in the first place.

In the UAPI header files, __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN must be compared against __BYTE_ORDER in preprocessor conditionals where these are exposed to userspace (that is they're not inside __KERNEL__ conditionals). However, in the main kernel the norm is to check for "defined(__XXX_ENDIAN)" rather than comparing against __BYTE_ORDER and this has incorrectly leaked into the userspace headers. The definition of struct mdp_superblock_s in linux/raid/md_p.h is wrong in this way. Note that userspace will likely interpret the ordering of the fields incorrectly as the big-endian variant on a little-endian machines - depending on header inclusion order.

2013-03-06acpi: Export the acpi_processor_get_performance_infoKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk
The git commit d5aaffa9dd531c978c6f3fea06a2972653bd7fc8 (cpufreq: handle cpufreq being disabled for all exported function) tightens the cpufreq API by returning errors when disable_cpufreq() had been called. The problem we are hitting is that the module xen-acpi-processor which uses the ACPI's functions: acpi_processor_register_performance, acpi_processor_preregister_performance, and acpi_processor_notify_smm fails at acpi_processor_register_performance with -22. Note that earlier during bootup in arch/x86/xen/setup.c there is also an call to cpufreq's API: disable_cpufreq(). This is b/c we want the Linux kernel to parse the ACPI data, but leave the cpufreq decisions to the hypervisor. In v3.9 all the checks that d5aaffa9dd531c978c6f3fea06a2972653bd7fc8 added are now hit and the calls to cpufreq_register_notifier will now fail. This means that acpi_processor_ppc_init ends up printing: "Warning: Processor Platform Limit not supported" and the acpi_processor_ppc_status is not set. The repercussions of that is that the call to acpi_processor_register_performance fails right away at: if (!(acpi_processor_ppc_status & PPC_REGISTERED)) and we don't progress any further on parsing and extracting the _P* objects. The only reason the Xen code called that function was b/c it was exported and the only way to gather the P-states. But we can also just make acpi_processor_get_performance_info be exported and not use acpi_processor_register_performance. This patch does so. Acked-by: Rafael J.
