Srivatsa S. Bhat aa9a7b1182 PM / Hibernate: Fix the early termination of test modes
Commit 2aede851dd
(PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory)
postponed the freezing of kernel threads to after preallocating memory
for hibernation. But while doing that, the hibernation test TEST_FREEZER
and the test mode HIBERNATION_TESTPROC were not moved accordingly.

As a result, when using these test modes, it only goes upto the freezing of
userspace and exits, when in fact it should go till the complete end of task
freezing stage, namely the freezing of kernel threads as well.

So, move these points of exit to appropriate places so that freezing of
kernel threads is also tested while using these test harnesses.

Eric Dumazet 9cc20b268a ipv4: fix redirect handling
commit f39925dbde (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in
inetpeer.) introduced a regression in ICMP redirect handling.

It assumed ipv4_dst_check() would be called because all possible routes
were attached to the inetpeer we modify in ip_rt_redirect(), but thats
not true.

commit 7cc9150ebe (route: fix ICMP redirect validation) tried to fix
this but solution was not complete. (It fixed only one route)

So we must lookup existing routes (including different TOS values) and
call check_peer_redir() on them.

Andrew Worsley b1ffb4c851 USB: Fix Corruption issue in USB ftdi driver ftdi_sio.c
Fix for ftdi_set_termios() glitching output

ftdi_set_termios() is constantly setting the baud rate, data bits and parity
unnecessarily on every call, . When called while characters are being
transmitted can cause the FTDI chip to corrupt the serial port bit stream
output by stalling the output half a bit during the output of a character.
Simple fix by skipping this setting if the baud rate/data bits/parity are
unchanged.

----

  I had a brief run with strace on the getty and it was doing ioctl()s on
  each call but it didn't look relavant to the problem. I think the issue is
  that XON/XOFF flow control was being implmented via hardware - for the ixoff
  to allow the user to use XON/XOFF to control output. Unfortunately it would
  send 3 Control URBs updating all of the settings after each piece of input

  I am trying to work around the issue of gmail messing with the tab/spacing
  by submitting via SMTP via gmail which I believe should fix the issue.

  The patch is against v3.2-rc2 and compiles - but no additional testing in
  this kernel has been done.

  Thanks

Alan Stern c618759774 OHCI: final fix for NVIDIA problems (I hope)
Problems with NVIDIA's OHCI host controllers persist.  After looking
carefully through the spec, I finally realized that when a controller
is reset it then automatically goes into a SUSPEND state in which it
is completely quiescent (no DMA and no IRQs) and from which it will
not awaken until the system puts it into the OPERATIONAL state.

Therefore there's no need to worry about controllers being in the
RESET state for extended periods, or remaining in the OPERATIONAL
state during system shutdown.  The proper action for device
initialization is to put the controller into the RESET state (if it's
not there already) and then to issue a software reset.  Similarly, the
proper action for device shutdown is simply to do a software reset.

This patch (as1499) implements such an approach.  It simplifies
initialization and shutdown, and allows the NVIDIA shutdown-quirk code
to be removed.

Rabin Vincent f9dfb65b05 ktest: Check parent options for iterated tests
Let's say we have "OUTPUT_DIR = build/${TEST_NAME}", and we're iterating
a test.  In the second iteration of a test, the TEST_NAME of the test
we're repeating is not used.  Instead, ${TEST_NAME} appears literally:

   touch /home/rabin/kernel/test/build/${TEST_NAME}/.config ... SUCCESS

Fix this by making __eval_option() check the parent test options

Rafael J. Wysocki 8b258cc8ac PM Sleep: Do not extend wakeup paths to devices with ignore_children set
Commit 4ca46ff3e0 (PM / Sleep: Mark
devices involved in wakeup signaling during suspend) introduced
the power.wakeup_path field in struct dev_pm_info to mark devices
whose children are enabled to wake up the system from sleep states,
so that power domains containing the parents that provide their
children with wakeup power and/or relay their wakeup signals are not
turned off.  Unfortunately, that introduced a PM regression on SH7372
whose power consumption in the system "memory sleep" state increased
as a result of it, because it prevented the power domain containing
the I2C controller from being turned off when some children of that
controller were enabled to wake up the system, although the
controller was not necessary for them to signal wakeup.

To fix this issue use the observation that devices whose
power.ignore_children flag is set for runtime PM should be treated
analogously during system suspend.  Namely, they shouldn't be
included in wakeup paths going through their children.  Since the
SH7372 I2C controller's power.ignore_children flag is set, doing so
will restore the previous behavior of that SOC.

Jiri Slaby 0c73c08ec7 TTY: ldisc, wait for ldisc infinitely in hangup
For /dev/console case, we do not kill all ldisc users. It's due to
redirected_tty_write test in __tty_hangup. In that case there still
might be a process waiting e.g. in n_tty_read for input.

We wait for such processes to disappear. The problem is that we use a
timeout. After this timeout, we continue closing the ldisc and start
freeing tty resources. It obviously leads to crashes when the other
process is woken.

So to fix this, we wait infinitely before reiniting the ldisc. (The
tiocsetd remains untouched -- times out after 5s.)

This is nicely reproducible with this run from shell:
  exec 0<>/dev/console 1<>/dev/console 2<>/dev/console
and stopping a getty like:
  systemctl stop serial-getty@ttyS0.service

The crash proper may be produced only under load or with constified
timing the same as for 92f6fa09b.

Gleb Natapov 8bf00a5299 KVM: VMX: add support for switching of PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL
Some cpus have special support for switching PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL msr.
Add logic to detect if such support exists and works properly and extend
msr switching code to use it if available. Also extend number of generic
msr switching entries to 8.

Christian Borntraeger 52e16b185f KVM: s390: announce SYNC_MMU
KVM on s390 always had a sync mmu. Any mapping change in userspace
mapping was always reflected immediately in the guest mapping.
- In older code the guest mapping was just an offset
- In newer code the last level page table is shared

Christian Borntraeger 1eddb85f88 KVM: s390: Fix tprot locking
There is a potential host deadlock in the tprot intercept handling.
We must not hold the mmap semaphore while resolving the guest
address. If userspace is remapping, then the memory detection in
the guest is broken anyway so we can safely separate the
address translation from walking the vmas.

SIGP sense running may cause an intercept on higher level
virtualization, so handle it by checking the CPUSTAT_RUNNING flag.

Cornelia Huck 9e6dabeffd KVM: s390: Fix RUNNING flag misinterpretation
CPUSTAT_RUNNING was implemented signifying that a vcpu is not stopped.
This is not, however, what the architecture says: RUNNING should be
set when the host is acting on the behalf of the guest operating
system.

CPUSTAT_RUNNING has been changed to be set in kvm_arch_vcpu_load()
and to be unset in kvm_arch_vcpu_put().

For signifying stopped state of a vcpu, a host-controlled bit has
been used and is set/unset basically on the reverse as the old
CPUSTAT_RUNNING bit (including pushing it down into stop handling
proper in handle_stop()).

Luck, Tony bd29e568a4 fix typo/thinko in get_random_bytes()
If there is an architecture-specific random number generator we use it
to acquire randomness one "long" at a time.  We should put these random
words into consecutive words in the result buffer - not just overwrite
the first word again and again.

Wu Fengguang 1df647197c writeback: hard throttle 1000+ dd on a slow USB stick
The sleep based balance_dirty_pages() can pause at most MAX_PAUSE=200ms
on every 1 4KB-page, which means it cannot throttle a task under
4KB/200ms=20KB/s. So when there are more than 512 dd writing to a
10MB/s USB stick, its bdi dirty pages could grow out of control.

Even if we can increase MAX_PAUSE, the minimal (task_ratelimit = 1)
means a limit of 4KB/s.
                                                       
They can eventually be safeguarded by the global limit check 
(nr_dirty < dirty_thresh). However if someone is also writing to an 
HDD at the same time, it'll get poor HDD write performance.
                                                       
We at least want to maintain good write performance for other devices
when one device is attacked by some "massive parallel" workload, or
suffers from slow write bandwidth, or somehow get stalled due to some 
error condition (eg. NFS server not responding).

For a stalled device, we need to completely block its dirtiers, too,
before its bdi dirty pages grow all the way up to the global limit and
leave no space for the other functional devices.

So change the loop exit condition to

	/*
	 * Always enforce global dirty limit; also enforce bdi dirty limit
	 * if the normal max_pause sleeps cannot keep things under control.
	 */
	if (nr_dirty < dirty_thresh &&
	    (bdi_dirty < bdi_thresh || bdi->dirty_ratelimit > 1))
		break;

which can be further simplified to

	if (task_ratelimit)
		break;
