eca91e7838 x86_64: fix delayed signals
On three of the several paths in entry_64.S that call
do_notify_resume() on the way back to user mode, we fail to properly
check again for newly-arrived work that requires another call to
do_notify_resume() before going to user mode.  These paths set the
mask to check only _TIF_NEED_RESCHED, but this is wrong.  The other
paths that lead to do_notify_resume() do this correctly already, and
entry_32.S does it correctly in all cases.

All paths back to user mode have to check all the _TIF_WORK_MASK
flags at the last possible stage, with interrupts disabled.
Otherwise, we miss any flags (TIF_SIGPENDING for example) that were
set any time after we entered do_notify_resume().  More work flags
can be set (or left set) synchronously inside do_notify_resume(), as
TIF_SIGPENDING can be, or asynchronously by interrupts or other CPUs
(which then send an asynchronous interrupt).

There are many different scenarios that could hit this bug, most of
them races.  The simplest one to demonstrate does not require any
race: when one signal has done handler setup at the check before
returning from a syscall, and there is another signal pending that
should be handled.  The second signal's handler should interrupt the
first signal handler before it actually starts (so the interrupted PC
is still at the handler's entry point).  Instead, it runs away until
the next kernel entry (next syscall, tick, etc).

This test behaves correctly on 32-bit kernels, and fails on 64-bit
(either 32-bit or 64-bit test binary).  With this fix, it works.

5b4d2386c2 x86: Recover timer_ack lost in the merge of the NMI watchdog
In the course of the recent unification of the NMI watchdog an assignment
to timer_ack to switch off unnecesary POLL commands to the 8259A in the
case of a watchdog failure has been accidentally removed.  The statement
used to be limited to the 32-bit variation as since the rewrite of the
timer code it has been relevant for the 82489DX only.  This change brings
it back.

af174783b9 x86: I/O APIC: Never configure IRQ2
There is no such entity as ISA IRQ2.  The ACPI spec does not make it
explicitly clear, but does not preclude it either -- all it says is ISA
legacy interrupts are identity mapped by default (subject to overrides),
but it does not state whether IRQ2 exists or not.  As a result if there is
no IRQ0 override, then IRQ2 is normally initialised as an ISA interrupt,
which implies an edge-triggered line, which is unmasked by default as this
is what we do for edge-triggered I/O APIC interrupts so as not to miss an
edge.

To the best of my knowledge it is useless, as IRQ2 has not been in use
since the PC/AT as back then it was taken by the 8259A cascade interrupt
to the slave, with the line position in the slot rerouted to newly-created
IRQ9.  No device could thus make use of this line with the pair of 8259A
chips.  Now in theory INTIN2 of the I/O APIC may be usable, but the
interrupt of the device wired to it would not be available in the PIC mode
at all, so I seriously doubt if anybody decided to reuse it for a regular
device.

However there are two common uses of INTIN2.  One is for IRQ0, with an
ACPI interrupt override (or its equivalent in the MP table).  But in this
case IRQ2 is gone entirely with INTIN0 left vacant.  The other one is for
an 8959A ExtINTA cascade.  In this case IRQ0 goes to INTIN0 and if ACPI is
used INTIN2 is assumed to be IRQ2 (there is no override and ACPI has no
way to report ExtINTA interrupts).  This is where a problem happens.

The problem is INTIN2 is configured as a native APIC interrupt, with a
vector assigned and the mask cleared.  And the line may indeed get active
and inject interrupts if the master 8959A has its timer interrupt enabled
(it might happen for other interrupts too, but they are normally masked in
the process of rerouting them to the I/O APIC).  There are two cases where
it will happen:

* When the I/O APIC NMI watchdog is enabled.  This is actually a misnomer
  as the watchdog pulses are delivered through the 8259A to the LINT0
  inputs of all the local APICs in the system.  The implication is the
  output of the master 8259A goes high and low repeatedly, signalling
  interrupts to INTIN2 which is enabled too!

  [The origin of the name is I think for a brief period during the
  development we had a capability in our code to configure the watchdog to
  use an I/O APIC input; that would be INTIN2 in this scenario.]

* When the native route of IRQ0 via INTIN0 fails for whatever reason -- as
  it happens with the system considered here.  In this scenario the timer
  pulse is delivered through the 8259A to LINT0 input of the local APIC of
  the bootstrap processor, quite similarly to how is done for the watchdog
  described above.  The result is, again, INTIN2 receives these pulses
  too.  Rafael's system used to escape this scenario, because an incorrect
  IRQ0 override would occupy INTIN2 and prevent it from being unmasked.

My conclusion is IRQ2 should be excluded from configuration in all the
cases and the current exception for ACPI systems should be lifted.  The
reason being the exception not only being useless, but harmful as well.

c88ac1df48 x86: L-APIC: Always fully configure IRQ0
Unlike the 32-bit one, the 64-bit variation of the LVT0 setup code for
the "8259A Virtual Wire" through the local APIC timer configuration does
not fully configure the relevant irq_chip structure.  Instead it relies on
the preceding I/O APIC code to have set it up, which does not happen if
the I/O APIC variants have not been tried.

The patch includes corresponding changes to the 32-bit variation too
which make them both the same, barring a small syntactic difference
involving sequence of functions in the source.  That should work as an aid
with the upcoming merge.

1baea6e2fe x86: L-APIC: Set IRQ0 as edge-triggered
IRQ0 is edge-triggered, but the "8259A Virtual Wire" through the local
APIC configuration in the 32-bit version uses the "fasteoi" handler
suitable for level-triggered APIC interrupt.  Rewrite code so that the
"edge" handler is used.  The 64-bit version uses different code and is
unaffected.

In dwarf2_32.h, test for CONFIG_AS_CFI instead of
CONFIG_UNWIND_INFO. Turns out that searching for UNWIND_INFO
returns no match in any Kconfig or Makefile, so we're really
just throwing everything away regarding dwarf frames for i386.

The test that generates CONFIG_AS_CFI does not have anything
x86_64-specific, and right now, checking V=1 builds shows me
that the flags is there anyway, although unused.

49641f1acf Fix reference counting race on log buffers
When we release the iclog, we do an atomic_dec_and_lock to determine if
we are the last reference and need to trigger update of log headers and
writeout.  However, in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we also need to
check if we have the last reference count there.  If we do, we release
the log buffer, otherwise we decrement the reference count.

But the compare and decrement in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() is not
atomic, so both places can see a reference count of 2 and neither will
release the iclog.  That leads to a filesystem hang.

Close the race by replacing the atomic_read() and atomic_dec() pair with
atomic_add_unless() to ensure that they are executed atomically.

d9fc3fd3fa x86: fix savesegment() bug causing crashes on 64-bit
i spent a fair amount of time chasing a 64-bit bootup crash that manifested
itself as bootup segfaults:

  S10network[1825]: segfault at 7f3e2b5d16b8 ip 00000031108748c9 sp 00007fffb9c14c70 error 4 in libc-2.7.so[3110800000+14d000]

eventually causing init to die and panic the system:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
  Pid: 1, comm: init Not tainted 2.6.26-rc9-tip #13878

after a maratonic bisection session, the bad commit turned out to be:

|     x86: remove open-coded save/load segment operations
|
|     This removes a pile of buggy open-coded implementations of savesegment
|     and loadsegment.

after some more bisection of this patch itself, it turns out that what
makes the difference are the savesegment() changes to __switch_to().

Taking a look at this portion of arch/x86/kernel/process_64.o revealed
this crutial difference:

| good:    99c:       8c e0                   mov    %fs,%eax
|          99e:       89 45 cc                mov    %eax,-0x34(%rbp)
|
| bad:     99c:       8c 65 cc                mov    %fs,-0x34(%rbp)

which is due to:

|                 unsigned fsindex;
| -               asm volatile("movl %%fs,%0" : "=r" (fsindex));
| +               savesegment(fs, fsindex);

savesegment() is implemented as:

 #define savesegment(seg, value)                                \
          asm("mov %%" #seg ",%0":"=rm" (value) : : "memory")

note the "m" modifier - it allows GCC to generate the segment move
into a memory operand as well.

But regarding segment operands there's a subtle detail in the x86
instruction set: the above 16-bit moves are zero-extend, but only
if it goes to a register.

If it goes to a memory operand, -0x34(%rbp) in the above case, there's
no zero-extend to 32-bit and the instruction will only save 16 bits
instead of the intended 32-bit.

The other 16 bits is random data - which can cause problems when that
value is used later on.

The solution is to only allow segment operands to go to registers.
This fix allows my test-system to boot up without crashing.

b344991ace libata-acpi: filter out DIPM enable
Some BIOSen enable DIPM via _GTF which causes command timeouts under
certain configuration.  This didn't occur on 2.6.25 because 2.6.25
defaulted to SRST, so _GTF wasn't executed during boot probe, so ahci
host reset disabled DIPM and as _GTF wasn't executed after SRST, DIPM
wasn't enabled.  On 2.6.26, hardreset is used during probe and after
probe _GTF is executed enabling DIPM and thus the failures.

This patch could theoretically disable DIPM on machines which used to
have it enabled on 2.6.25 but AFAIK ahci is currently the only driver
which uses SATA ACPI hierarchy (_SDD) and as the host reset would have
always disabled DIPM, this shouldn't happen.

which rules make sure that various instrumentation and debugging

e35259a953 tun: Persistent devices can get stuck in xoff state
The scenario goes like this. App stops reading from tun/tap.
TX queue gets full and driver does netif_stop_queue().
App closes fd and TX queue gets flushed as part of the cleanup.
Next time the app opens tun/tap and starts reading from it but
the xoff state is not cleared. We're stuck.
Normally xoff state is cleared when netdev is brought up. But
in the case of persistent devices this happens only during
initial setup.

The fix is trivial. If device is already up when an app opens
it we clear xoff state and that gets things moving again.

Add a XFRM_STATE_AF_UNSPEC flag to handle the AF_UNSPEC behavior for
the selector family. Userspace applications can set this flag to leave
the selector family of the xfrm_state unspecified.  This can be used
to to handle inter family tunnels if the selector is not set from
userspace.

2e655571c6 ipv4: fib_trie: Fix lookup error return
In commit a07f5f508a "[IPV4] fib_trie: style
cleanup", the changes to check_leaf() and fn_trie_lookup() were wrong - where
fn_trie_lookup() would previously return a negative error value from
check_leaf(), it now returns 0.
 
Now fn_trie_lookup() doesn't appear to care about plen, so we can revert
check_leaf() to returning the error value.

bdb2192851 slub: Fix use-after-preempt of per-CPU data structure

	DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0068

and analyzed it:

  "The register %ecx looks innocent but is very important here. The disassembly:

       mov    %edx,%ecx
       shr    $0x2,%ecx
       rep stos %eax,%es:(%edi) <-- the fault

   So %ecx has been loaded from %edx... which is 0x6b6b6b6b/POISON_FREE.
   (0x6b6b6b6b >> 2 == 0x1adadada.)

   %ecx is the counter for the memset, from here:

       memset(object, 0, c->objsize);

  i.e. %ecx was loaded from c->objsize, so "c" must have been freed.
  Where did "c" come from? Uh-oh...

       c = get_cpu_slab(s, smp_processor_id());

  This looks like it has very much to do with CPU hotplug/unplug. Is
  there a race between SLUB/hotplug since the CPU slab is used after it
  has been freed?"

Good analysis.

Yeah, it's possible that a caller of kmem_cache_alloc() -> slab_alloc()
can be migrated on another CPU right after local_irq_restore() and
before memset().  The inital cpu can become offline in the mean time (or
a migration is a consequence of the CPU going offline) so its
'kmem_cache_cpu' structure gets freed ( slab_cpuup_callback).

At some point of time the caller continues on another CPU having an
obsolete pointer...

96a8e13ed4 exec: fix stack excutability without PT_GNU_STACK
Kernel Bugzilla #11063 points out that on some architectures (e.g. x86_32)
exec'ing an ELF without a PT_GNU_STACK program header should default to an
executable stack; but this got broken by the unlimited argv feature because
stack vma is now created before the right personality has been established:
so breaking old binaries using nested function trampolines.

Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack
vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup.  Checking through
our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct:
so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

70ff05554f Fix PREEMPT_RCU without HOTPLUG_CPU
PREEMPT_RCU without HOTPLUG_CPU is broken.  The rcu_online_cpu is called
to initially populate rcu_cpu_online_map with all online CPUs when the
hotplug event handler is installed, and also to populate the map with
CPUs as they come online.  The former case is meant to happen with and
without HOTPLUG_CPU, but without HOTPLUG_CPU, the rcu_offline_cpu
function is no-oped -- while it still gets called, it does not set the
rcu CPU map.

With a blank RCU CPU map, grace periods get to tick by completely
oblivious to active RCU read side critical sections.  This results in
free-before-grace bugs.

Fix is obvious once the problem is known. (Also, change __devinit to
__cpuinit so the function gets thrown away on !HOTPLUG_CPU kernels).
