79e539453b DRM: i915: add mode setting support
This commit adds i915 driver support for the DRM mode setting APIs.
Currently, VGA, LVDS, SDVO DVI & VGA, TV and DVO LVDS outputs are
supported.  HDMI, DisplayPort and additional SDVO output support will
follow.

Support for the mode setting code is controlled by the new 'modeset'
module option.  A new config option, CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS controls the
default behavior, and whether a PCI ID list is built into the module for
use by user level module utilities.

Note that if mode setting is enabled, user level drivers that access
display registers directly or that don't use the kernel graphics memory
manager will likely corrupt kernel graphics memory, disrupt output
configuration (possibly leading to hangs and/or blank displays), and
prevent panic/oops messages from appearing.  So use caution when
enabling this code; be sure your user level code supports the new
interfaces.

A new SysRq key, 'g', provides emergency support for switching back to
the kernel's framebuffer console; which is useful for testing.

f453ba0460 DRM: add mode setting support
Add mode setting support to the DRM layer.

This is a fairly big chunk of work that allows DRM drivers to provide
full output control and configuration capabilities to userspace.  It was
motivated by several factors:
  - the fb layer's APIs aren't suited for anything but simple
    configurations
  - coordination between the fb layer, DRM layer, and various userspace
    drivers is poor to non-existent (radeonfb excepted)
  - user level mode setting drivers makes displaying panic & oops
    messages more difficult
  - suspend/resume of graphics state is possible in many more
    configurations with kernel level support

This commit just adds the core DRM part of the mode setting APIs.
Driver specific commits using these new structure and APIs will follow.

1147c9cdd0 drm: fix leak of uninitialized data to userspace
...so drm_getunique() is trying to copy some uninitialized data to
userspace. The ECX register contains the number of words that are
left to copy -- so there are 5 * 4 = 20 bytes left. The offset of the
first uninitialized byte (counting from the start of the string) is
also 20 (i.e. 0xf65d2294&((1 << 5)-1) == 20). So somebody tried to
copy 40 bytes when the string was only 19 long.

In drm_set_busid() we have this code:

        dev->unique_len = 40;
        dev->unique = drm_alloc(dev->unique_len + 1, DRM_MEM_DRIVER);
      ...
        len = snprintf(dev->unique, dev->unique_len, pci:%04x:%02x:%02x.%d",

...so it seems that dev->unique is never updated to reflect the
actual length of the string. The remaining bytes (20 in this case)
are random uninitialized bytes that are copied into userspace.

This patch fixes the problem by setting dev->unique_len after the
snprintf().

airlied- I've had to fix this up to store the alloced size so
we have it for drm_free later.

7c1c2871a6 drm: move to kref per-master structures.
This is step one towards having multiple masters sharing a drm
device in order to get fast-user-switching to work.

It splits out the information associated with the drm master
into a separate kref counted structure, and allocates this when
a master opens the device node. It also allows the current master
to abdicate (say while VT switched), and a new master to take over
the hardware.

It moves the Intel and radeon drivers to using the sarea from
within the new master structures.

40f15ad8aa x86: disable X86_PTRACE_BTS
there's a new ptrace arch level feature in .28:

  config X86_PTRACE_BTS
  bool "Branch Trace Store"

it has broken fork() handling: the old DS area gets copied over into
a new task without clearing it.

Fixes exist but they came too late:

  c5dee61: x86, bts: memory accounting
  bf53de9: x86, bts: add fork and exit handling

and are queued up for v2.6.29. This shows that the facility is still not
tested well enough to release into a stable kernel - disable it for now and
reactivate in .29. In .29 the hardware-branch-tracer will use the DS/BTS
facilities too - hopefully resulting in better code.

d519c8d9cc edac: fix edac core deadlock when removing a device
When deleting an edac device, we have to wait for its edac_dev.work to be
completed before deleting the whole edac_dev structure.  Since we have no
idea which work in current edac_poller's workqueue is the work we are
conerned about, we wait for all work in the edac_poller's workqueue to be
proceseed.  This is done via flush_cpu_workqueue() which inserts a
wq_barrier into the tail of the workqueue and then sleeping on the
completion of this wq_barrier.  The edac_poller will wake up sleepers when
it is found.

EDAC core creates only one kernel worker thread, edac_poller, to run the
works of all current edac devices.  They share the same callback function
of edac_device_workq_function(), which would grab the mutex of
device_ctls_mutex first before it checks the device.  This is exactly
where edac_poller and rmmod would have a great chance to deadlock.

In below call trace of rmmod > ... >
edac_device_del_device >
edac_device_workq_teardown > flush_workqueue > flush_cpu_workqueue,

device_ctls_mutex would have already been grabbed by
edac_device_del_device().  So, on one hand rmmod would sleep on the
completion of a wq_barrier, holding device_ctls_mutex; on the other hand
edac_poller would be blocked on the same mutex when it's running any one
of works of existing edac evices(Note, this edac_dev.work is likely to be
totally irrelevant to the one that is being removed right now)and never
would have a chance to run the work of above wq_barrier to wake rmmod up.

edac_device_workq_teardown() should not be called within the critical
region of device_ctls_mutex.  Just like is done in edac_pci_del_device()
and edac_mc_del_mc(), where edac_pci_workq_teardown() and
edac_mc_workq_teardown() are called after related mutex are released.

Moreover, an edac_dev.work should check first if it is being removed.  If
this is the case, then it should bail out immediately.  Since not all of
existing edac devices are to be removed, this "shutting flag" should be
contained to edac device being removed.  The current edac_dev.op_state can
be used to serve this purpose.

The original deadlock problem and the solution have been witnessed and
tested on actual hardware.  Without the solution, rmmod an edac driver
would result in below deadlock:

root@localhost:/root> rmmod mv64x60_edac
EDAC DEBUG: mv64x60_dma_err_remove()
EDAC DEBUG: edac_device_del_device()

3d44cc3e01 Null pointer deref with hrtimer_try_to_cancel()
Impact: Prevent kernel crash with posix timer clockid CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW

commit 2d42244ae7 (clocksource:
introduce CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW) introduced a new clockid, which is only
available to read out the raw not NTP adjusted system time.

The above commit did not prevent that a posix timer can be created
with that clockid. The timer_create() syscall succeeds and initializes
the timer to a non existing hrtimer base. When the timer is deleted
either by timer_delete() or by the exit() cleanup the kernel crashes.

Prevent the creation of timers for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW by setting the
posix clock function to no_timer_create which returns an error code.

280a9ca5d0 x86: fix resume (S2R) broken by Intel microcode module, on A110L
Impact: fix deadlock

This is in response to the following bug report:

Bug-Entry       : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100
Subject         : resume (S2R) broken by Intel microcode module, on A110L
Submitter       : Andreas Mohr <andi@lisas.de>
Date            : 2008-11-25 08:48 (19 days old)

[ The deadlock scenario has been discovered by Andreas Mohr ]

I think I might have a logical explanation why the system:

  (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100)

might hang upon resuming, OTOH it should have likely hanged each and every time.

(1) possible deadlock in microcode_resume_cpu() if either 'if' section is
taken;

(2) now, I don't see it in spec. and can't experimentally verify it (newer
ucodes don't seem to be available for my Core2duo)... but logically-wise, I'd
think that when read upon resuming, the 'microcode revision' (MSR 0x8B) should
be back to its original one (we need to reload ucode anyway so it doesn't seem
logical if a cpu doesn't drop the version)... if so, the comparison with
memcmp() for the full 'struct cpu_signature' is wrong... and that's how one of
the aforementioned 'if' sections might have been triggered - leading to a
deadlock.

Obviously, in my tests I simulated loading/resuming with the ucode of the same
version (just to see that the file is loaded/re-loaded upon resuming) so this
issue has never popped up.

I'd appreciate if someone with an appropriate system might give a try to the
2nd patch (titled "fix a comparison && deadlock...").

In any case, the deadlock situation is a must-have fix.

f1d9e4586e fs/9p: change simple_strtol to simple_strtoul
Since v9ses->uid is unsigned, it would seem better to use simple_strtoul that
simple_strtol.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@r2@
long e;
position p;
@@

e = simple_strtol@p(...)

@@
position p != r2.p;
type T;
T e;
@@

e =
- simple_strtol@p
+ simple_strtoul
  (...)
// </smpl>

d_iname is rubbish for long file names.
Use d_name.name in printks instead.
