Grant Likely b1608d69cb drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct device
Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time.  This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver.  If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.

This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

Milton Miller 01294d8262 of: fix race when matching drivers
If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write
their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time.

Only write the result if the device matches.

In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not",
Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.
From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched
some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery
failling.

Joel Becker 24307aa1e7 configfs: Fix race between configfs_readdir() and configfs_d_iput()
configfs_readdir() will use the existing inode numbers of inodes in the
dcache, but it makes them up for attribute files that aren't currently
instantiated.  There is a race where a closing attribute file can be
tearing down at the same time as configfs_readdir() is trying to get its
inode number.

We want to get the inode number of open attribute files, because they
should match while instantiated.  We can't lock down the transition
where dentry->d_inode is set to NULL, so we just check for NULL there.
We can, however, ensure that an inode we find isn't iput() in
configfs_d_iput() until after we've accessed it.

Joel Becker df7f99670a configfs: Don't try to d_delete() negative dentries.
When configfs is faking mkdir() on its subsystem or default group
objects, it starts by adding a negative dentry.  It then tries to
instantiate the group.  If that should fail, it must clean up after
itself.

I was using d_delete() here, but configfs_attach_group() promises to
return an empty dentry on error.  d_delete() explodes with the entry
dentry.  Let's try d_drop() instead.  The unhashing is what we want for
our dentry.

Shaohua Li 3ec717b7ca block: don't delay blk_run_queue_async
Let's check a scenario:
1. blk_delay_queue(q, SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY);
2. blk_run_queue_async();
the second one will became a noop, because q->delay_work already has
WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT set, so the delayed work will still run after
SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY. But blk_run_queue_async actually hopes the delayed
work runs immediately.

Fix this by doing a cancel on potentially pending delayed work
before queuing an immediate run of the workqueue.

Richard Weinberger b2db21997f um: fix abort
os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error.

glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill().
tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not
pthreads.  As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to
terminate the process.  Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a
ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer.

To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

As Metze pointed out, commit 84cdf74e broke mapchars option:

    Commit "cifs: fix unaligned accesses in cifsConvertToUCS"
    (84cdf74e80) does multiple steps
    in just one commit (moving the function and changing it without
    testing).

    put_unaligned_le16(temp, &target[j]); is never called for any
    codepoint the goes via the 'default' switch statement. As a result
    we put just zero (or maybe uninitialized) bytes into the target
    buffer.

His proposed patch looks correct, but doesn't apply to the current head
of the tree. This patch should also fix it.

Borislav Petkov 14fb57dccb x86, AMD: Fix ARAT feature setting again
Trying to enable the local APIC timer on early K8 revisions
uncovers a number of other issues with it, in conjunction with
the C1E enter path on AMD. Fixing those causes much more churn
and troubles than the benefit of using that timer brings so
don't enable it on K8 at all, falling back to the original
functionality the kernel had wrt to that.

This reverts commit e20a2d205c, as it crashes
certain boxes with specific AMD CPU models.

Moving the lower endpoint of the Erratum 400 check to accomodate
earlier K8 revisions (A-E) opens a can of worms which is simply
not worth to fix properly by tweaking the errata checking
framework:

* missing IntPenging MSR on revisions < CG cause #GP:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130541471818831

* makes earlier revisions use the LAPIC timer instead of the C1E
idle routine which switches to HPET, thus not waking up in
deeper C-states:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/24/20

Therefore, leave the original boundary starting with K8-revF.

Jens Axboe 9937a5e2f3 scsi: remove performance regression due to async queue run
Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter
protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from
kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down,
but should be safe.

Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for
some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details
of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests.

Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device
ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this:

scsi_request_fn()
        scsi_dispatch_cmd()
                scsi_queue_insert()
                        __scsi_queue_insert()
                                scsi_run_queue()
					scsi_request_fn()
						...

potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special
case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload
the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single
workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially
kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen.

This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion,
since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out
of line.

  pcieport: probe of 0000:c0:03.0 failed with error -22

This bug was caused by commit c8adf9a3e8 ("PCI: pre-allocate
additional resources to devices only after successful allocation of
essential resources.")

After that commit, pci_hotplug_io_size is changed to additional_io_size
from minium size.  So it will not go through resource_size(res) != 0
path, and will not be reset.

The root cause is: pci_bridge_check_ranges will set RESOURCE_IO flag for
pci bridge, and later if children do not need IO resource.  those bridge
resources will not need to be allocated.  but flags is still there.
that will confuse the the pci_enable_bridges later.

related code:

   static void assign_requested_resources_sorted(struct resource_list *head,
                                    struct resource_list_x *fail_head)
   {
           struct resource *res;
           struct resource_list *list;
           int idx;

           for (list = head->next; list; list = list->next) {
                   res = list->res;
                   idx = res - &list->dev->resource[0];
                   if (resource_size(res) && pci_assign_resource(list->dev, idx)) {
   ...
                           reset_resource(res);
                   }
           }
   }

At last, We have to clear the flags in pbus_size_mem/io when requested
size == 0 and !add_head.  becasue this case it will not go through
adjust_resources_sorted().

Just make size1 = size0 when !add_head. it will make flags get cleared.

At the same time when requested size == 0, add_size != 0, will still
have in head and add_list.  because we do not clear the flags for it.

After this, we will get right result:

  pci 0000:c0:03.0: PCI bridge to [bus c4-c9]

Thomas Gleixner 07f4beb0b5 tick: Clear broadcast active bit when switching to oneshot
The first cpu which switches from periodic to oneshot mode switches
also the broadcast device into oneshot mode. The broadcast device
serves as a backup for per cpu timers which stop in deeper
C-states. To avoid starvation of the cpus which might be in idle and
depend on broadcast mode it marks the other cpus as broadcast active
and sets the brodcast expiry value of those cpus to the next tick.

The oneshot mode broadcast bit for the other cpus is sticky and gets
only cleared when those cpus exit idle. If a cpu was not idle while
the bit got set in consequence the bit prevents that the broadcast
device is armed on behalf of that cpu when it enters idle for the
first time after it switched to oneshot mode.

In most cases that goes unnoticed as one of the other cpus has usually
a timer pending which keeps the broadcast device armed with a short
timeout. Now if the only cpu which has a short timer active has the
bit set then the broadcast device will not be armed on behalf of that
cpu and will fire way after the expected timer expiry. In the case of
Christians bug report it took ~145 seconds which is about half of the
wrap around time of HPET (the limit for that device) due to the fact
that all other cpus had no timers armed which expired before the 145
seconds timeframe.

The solution is simply to clear the broadcast active bit
unconditionally when a cpu switches to oneshot mode after the first
cpu switched the broadcast device over. It's not idle at that point
otherwise it would not be executing that code.

[ I fundamentally hate that broadcast crap. Why the heck thought some
  folks that when going into deep idle it's a brilliant concept to
  switch off the last device which brings the cpu back from that
  state? ]

Thanks to Christian for providing all the valuable debug information!

Those reduced to DEBUG can possibly be triggered by unprivileged processes
and are nothing exceptional. Illegal checksum combinations can only be
caused by driver bug, so promote those messages to WARN.

Since GSO without SG will now only cause DEBUG message from

Thomas Jarosch ebde6f8acb vmxnet3: Fix inconsistent LRO state after initialization
During initialization of vmxnet3, the state of LRO
gets out of sync with netdev->features.

This leads to very poor TCP performance in a IP forwarding
setup and is hitting many VMware users.

Simplified call sequence:
1. vmxnet3_declare_features() initializes "adapter->lro" to true.

2. The kernel automatically disables LRO if IP forwarding is enabled,
so vmxnet3_set_flags() gets called. This also updates netdev->features.

3. Now vmxnet3_setup_driver_shared() is called. "adapter->lro" is still
set to true and LRO gets enabled again, even though
netdev->features shows it's disabled.

Fix it by updating "adapter->lro", too.

The private vmxnet3 adapter flags are scheduled for removal
in net-next, see commit a0d2730c95
"net: vmxnet3: convert to hw_features".

Patch applies to 2.6.37 / 2.6.38 and 2.6.39-rc6.

Vivek Goyal 70087dc38c blk-throttle: Use task_subsys_state() to determine a task's blkio_cgroup
Currentlly we first map the task to cgroup and then cgroup to
blkio_cgroup. There is a more direct way to get to blkio_cgroup
from task using task_subsys_state(). Use that.

The real reason for the fix is that it also avoids a race in generic
cgroup code. During remount/umount rebind_subsystems() is called and
it can do following with and rcu protection.

cgrp->subsys[i] = NULL;

That means if somebody got hold of cgroup under rcu and then it tried
to do cgroup->subsys[] to get to blkio_cgroup, it would get NULL which
is wrong. I was running into this race condition with ltp running on a
upstream derived kernel and that lead to crash.

So ideally we should also fix cgroup generic code to wait for rcu
grace period before setting pointer to NULL. Li Zefan is not very keen
on introducing synchronize_wait() as he thinks it will slow
down moun/remount/umount operations.

So for the time being atleast fix the kernel crash by taking a more
direct route to blkio_cgroup.

One tester had reported a crash while running LTP on a derived kernel
and with this fix crash is no more seen while the test has been
running for over 6 days.

Youquan Song e503f9e4b0 x86, apic: Fix spurious error interrupts triggering on all non-boot APs
This patch fixes a bug reported by a customer, who found
that many unreasonable error interrupts reported on all
non-boot CPUs (APs) during the system boot stage.

According to Chapter 10 of Intel Software Developer Manual
Volume 3A, Local APIC may signal an illegal vector error when
an LVT entry is set as an illegal vector value (0~15) under
FIXED delivery mode (bits 8-11 is 0), regardless of whether
the mask bit is set or an interrupt actually happen. These
errors are seen as error interrupts.

The initial value of thermal LVT entries on all APs always reads
0x10000 because APs are woken up by BSP issuing INIT-SIPI-SIPI
sequence to them and LVT registers are reset to 0s except for
the mask bits which are set to 1s when APs receive INIT IPI.

When the BIOS takes over the thermal throttling interrupt,
the LVT thermal deliver mode should be SMI and it is required
from the kernel to keep AP's LVT thermal monitoring register
programmed as such as well.

This issue happens when BIOS does not take over thermal throttling
interrupt, AP's LVT thermal monitor register will be restored to
0x10000 which means vector 0 and fixed deliver mode, so all APs will
signal illegal vector error interrupts.

This patch check if interrupt delivery mode is not fixed mode before
restoring AP's LVT thermal monitor register.

Chris Wilson 752d2635eb drm: Take lock around probes for drm_fb_helper_hotplug_event
We need to hold the dev->mode_config.mutex whilst detecting the output
status. But we also need to drop it for the call into
drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe(), which indirectly acquires the lock when
attaching the fbcon.

Failure to do so exposes a race with normal output probing. Detected by
adding some warnings that the mutex is held to the backend detect routines:
