Anton Blanchard b5abb028e2 e1000: Fix DMA mapping error handling on RX
Check for error return from pci_map_single/pci_map_page and clean up.

With this and the previous patch the driver was able to handle a significant
percentage of errors (I set the fault injection rate to 10% and could still
download large files at a reasonable speed).

Jens Axboe 79da0644a8 Revert "block: improve queue_should_plug() by looking at IO depths"
This reverts commit fb1e75389b.

"Benjamin S." <sbenni@gmx.de> reports that the patch in question
causes a big drop in sequential throughput for him, dropping from
200MB/sec down to only 70MB/sec.

Needs to be investigated more fully, for now lets just revert the
offending commit.

Michael Neuling a17e18790a fs/exec.c: fix initial stack reservation
803bf5ec25 ("fs/exec.c: restrict initial
stack space expansion to rlimit") attempts to limit the initial stack to
20*PAGE_SIZE.  Unfortunately, in attempting ensure the stack is not
reduced in size, we ended up not changing the stack at all.

This size reduction check is not necessary as the expand_stack call does
this already.

This caused a regression in UML resulting in most guest processes being
killed.

geode-mfgpt: restore previous behavior for selecting IRQ

The MFGPT IRQ used to be, in order of decreasing priority,
 * IRQ supplied by the user as a boot-time parameter,

Return to this behavior, which got broken when splitting the

Tejun Heo d2e7276b6b idr: fix a critical misallocation bug, take#2
This is retry of reverted 859ddf0974
("idr: fix a critical misallocation bug") which contained two bugs.

* pa[idp->layers] should be cleared even if it's not used by
  sub_alloc() because it's used by mark idr_mark_full().

* The original condition check also assigned pa[l] to p which the new
  code didn't do thus leaving p pointing at the wrong layer.

Both problems have been fixed and the idr code has received good amount
testing using userland testing setup where simple bitmap allocator is
run parallel to verify the result of idr allocation.

The bug this patch fixes is caused by sub_alloc() optimization path
bypassing out-of-room condition check and restarting allocation loop
with starting value higher than maximum allowed value.  For detailed
description, please read commit message of 859ddf09.

from processes under memcg(s) in oom.  Then, it kills victim's child
first.

It may kill a child in another cgroup and may not be any help for

Ben Skeggs 531e77139f drm/nv50: improve vram page table construction
This commit changes nouveau to construct PTEs which look very much like
the ones the binary driver creates.

I presume that filling multiple PTEs identically with length flags and
the physical address of the start of a block of VRAM is a hint to the
memory controller that it need not perform additional page table lookups
for that range of addresses.

Pallipadi, Venkatesh d306ebc286 ACPI: Be in TS_POLLING state during mwait based C-state entry
ACPI deep C-state entry had a long standing bug/missing feature, wherein we were sending
resched IPIs when an idle CPU is in mwait based deep C-state. Only mwait based C1 was using
the write to the monitored address to wake up mwait'ing CPU.

This patch changes the code to retain TS_POLLING bit if we are entering an mwait based
deep C-state.

The patch has been verified to reduce the number of resched IPIs in general and also
improves the performance/power on workloads with low system utilization (i.e., when mwait based
deep C-states are being used).

Fixes "netperf ~50% regression with 2.6.33-rc1, bisect to 1b9508f"

Rafael J. Wysocki 61caf87cb5 i915 / PM: Fix hibernate regression caused by suspend/resume splitting
Commit 84b79f8d28 (drm/i915: Fix crash
while aborting hibernation) attempted to fix a regression introduced
by commit cbda12d77e (drm/i915:
implement new pm ops for i915), but it went too far trying to split
the freeze/suspend and resume/thaw parts of the code.  As a result,
it introduced another regression, which only is visible on some systems.

Fix the problem by merging i915_drm_suspend() with
i915_drm_freeze() and moving some code from i915_resume()
into i915_drm_thaw(), so that intel_opregion_free() and
intel_opregion_init() are also executed in the freeze and thaw code
paths, respectively.

Accidently changed the struct stat uid/gid members

Those are of type 'int' but the structure is meant

correct this.

Stefan Richter 168cf9af69 firewire: remove incomplete Bus_Time CSR support
The current implementation of Bus_Time read access was buggy since it
did not ensure that Bus_Time.second_count_hi and second_count_lo came
from the same 128 seconds period.

Reported-by: Håkan Johansson <f96hajo@chalmers.se>

Instead of a fix, remove Bus_Time register support altogether.  The spec
requires all cycle master capable nodes to implement this (all Linux
nodes are cycle master capable) while it also says that it "may" be
initialized by the bus manager or by the IRM standing in for a bus
manager.  (Neither Linux' firewire-core nor ieee1394 nodemgr implement
this.)

Since we cannot rely on Bus_Time having been initialized by a bus
manager, it is better to return an error instead of a nonsensical value
on a read request to Bus_Time.

Alternatively, we could fix the Bus_Time read integrity bug _and_
implement (a) cycle master's write support of the register as well as
(b) bus manager's Bus_Time initialization service, i.e. preservation of
the Bus_Time when the cycle master node of a bus changes.  However, that
would be quite some code for a feature that is unreliable to begin with
and very likely unused in practice.

Stefan Richter 4a9bde9b8a firewire: get_cycle_timer optimization and cleanup
ohci:  Break out of the retry loop if too many attempts were necessary.
This may theoretically happen if the chip is fatally defective or if the
get_cycle_timer ioctl was performed after a CardBus controller was
ejected.

Also micro-optimize the loop by re-using the last two register reads in
the next iteration, remove a questionable inline keyword, and shuffle a
comment around.

core:  ioctl_get_cycle_timer() is always called with interrupts on,
therefore local_irq_save() can be replaced by local_irq_disable().
Disabled local IRQs imply disabled preemption, hence preempt_disable()
can be removed.

Russell King d944d549aa ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel boot
Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
boot.  This can prevent systems booting properly.

There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
booted.

So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
the kernel command line.

David Howells 8f9941aecc CacheFiles: Fix a race in cachefiles_delete_object() vs rename
cachefiles_delete_object() can race with rename.  It gets the parent directory
of the object it's asked to delete, then locks it - but rename may have changed
the object's parent between the get and the completion of the lock.

However, if such a circumstance is detected, we abandon our attempt to delete
the object - since it's no longer in the index key path, it won't be seen
again by lookups of that key.  The assumption is that cachefilesd may have
culled it by renaming it to the graveyard for later destruction.

Samu Onkalo d9c4f84699 Input: polldev can cause crash in case when polling disabled
When polled input device is opened and closed and there are no other
users of polled device, the workqueue is created and destroyed in
every open / close operation. It is probable that at some point
dynamic allocation of internal parts of the workqueue cause changes to the
workqueue.

When a work is queued to the workqueue the work struct contains pointers
to the workqueue data. If the workqueue has been changed and the work
has never been queued to the new workqueue, work-struct contains pointers
to the non-existing workqueue. This will cause crash at the work
cancellation during device close since cancellation of a work assumes
that the workqueue exists.

To prevent that, work struct is cleaned up at device close. This keeps
work struct clean for the next use.
