e174171 hwmon: (applesmc) Add iMac9,1 and MacBookPro2,2 support Add the iMac9,1 and the MacBookPro2,2 temperature sensors to hwmon driver applesmc to fix kernel bug #14429: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14429 Signed-off-by: Justin P. Mattock <justinmattock@gmail.com> Acked-by: Nicolas Boichat <nicolas@boichat.ch> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> 14 April 2010, 14:14:10 UTC
2b3d1d8 hwmon: (it87) Invalidate cache on temperature sensor change When any temperature sensor type is changed, the corresponding temperature value needs to be updated. The register caching mechanism may delay this update, so we want to invalidate the cache to force an immediate update. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> 14 April 2010, 14:14:10 UTC
8acf07c hwmon: (it87) Properly handle wrong sensor type requests Currently, if someone tries to set the thermal sensor type to an unsupported value, subsequent accesses to the chip may temporarily show the sensor in question as disabled. Use a temporary variable and only update the cached value on success, to prevent such confusion. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> 14 April 2010, 14:14:09 UTC
a00afb9 hwmon: (it87) Don't arbitrarily enable temperature channels Temperature channels can be used in 2 different modes (thermistor and thermal diode) and we don't know which one, if any, is correct for every given board. So don't arbitrarily choose one. Instead, leave the temperature channels untouched. They can be configured from user-space if needed anyway.

328a2c2 hwmon: (sht15) Fix sht15_calc_temp interpolation function I discovered two issues. First the previous sht15_calc_temp() loop did not iterate through the temppoints array since the (data->supply_uV > temppoints[i - 1].vdd) test is always true in this direction. Also the two-points linear interpolation function was returning biased values due to a stray division by 1000 which shouldn't be there.

e182c77 sparc64: Fix memory leak in pci_register_iommu_region(). Found by kmemleak. If request_resource() fails, we leak the struct resource we allocated to represent the IOMMU mapping area. This actually happens on sun4v machines because the IOMEM area is only reported sans the IOMMU region, unlike all previous systems. I'll need to fix that at some point, but for now fix the leak.

25ad403 sparc64: Add kmemleak annotation to sun4v_build_virq() The only reference we store to this memory is in the form of a physical address, so kmemleak can't see it. Add a kmemleak_not_leak() annotation. It's probably useful to be able to look at a dump of these things either via debugfs or similar, and thus we could at some point store them in some kind of table and therefore get rid of this annotation.

0c25e9e sparc64: Adjust __raw_local_irq_save() to cooperate in NMIs. If we are in an NMI then doing a plain raw_local_irq_disable() will write PIL_NORMAL_MAX into %pil, which is lower than PIL_NMI, and thus we'll re-enable NMIs and recurse. Doing a simple: %pil = %pil | PIL_NORMAL_MAX does what we want, if we're already at PIL_NMI (15) we leave it at that setting, else we set it to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14).

ea90002 anonvma: when setting up page->mapping, we need to pick the _oldest_ anonvma Otherwise we might be mapping in a page in a new mapping, but that page (through the swapcache) would later be mapped into an old mapping too. The page->mapping must be the case that works for everybody, not just the mapping that happened to page it in first. Here's the scenario: - page gets allocated/mapped by process A. Let's call the anon_vma we associate the page with 'A' to keep it easy to track. - Process A forks, creating process B. The anon_vma in B is 'B', and has a chain that looks like 'B' -> 'A'. Everything is fine. - Swapping happens. The page (with mapping pointing to 'A') gets swapped out (perhaps not to disk - it's enough to assume that it's just not mapped any more, and lives entirely in the swap-cache) - Process B pages it in, which goes like this: do_swap_page -> page = lookup_swap_cache(entry); ... set_pte_at(mm, address, page_table, pte); page_add_anon_rmap(page, vma, address); And think about what happens here! In particular, what happens is that this will now be the "first" mapping of that page, so page_add_anon_rmap() used to do if (first) __page_set_anon_rmap(page, vma, address); and notice what anon_vma it will use? It will use the anon_vma for process B! What happens then? Trivial: process 'A' also pages it in (nothing happens, it's not the first mapping), and then process 'B' execve's or exits or unmaps, making anon_vma B go away. End result: process A has a page that points to anon_vma B, but anon_vma B does not exist any more. This can go on forever. Forget about RCU grace periods, forget about locking, forget anything like that. The bug is simply that page->mapping points to an anon_vma that was correct at one point, but was _not_ the one that was shared by all users of that possible mapping. Changing it to always use the deepest anon_vma in the anonvma chain gets us to the safest model. This can be improved in certain cases: if we know the page is private to just this particular mapping (for example, it's a new page, or it is the only swapcache entry), we could pick the top (most specific) anon_vma. But that's a future optimization. Make it _work_ reliably first.

646d87b anon_vma: clone the anon_vma chain in the right order We want to walk the chain in reverse order when cloning it, so that the order of the result chain will be the same as the order in the source chain.

287d97a vma_adjust: fix the copying of anon_vma chains When we move the boundaries between two vma's due to things like mprotect, we need to make sure that the anon_vma of the pages that got moved from one vma to another gets properly copied around. And that was not always the case, in this rather hard-to-follow code sequence. Clarify the code, and fix it so that it copies the anon_vma from the right source.

d0e9fe1 Simplify and comment on anon_vma re-use for anon_vma_prepare() This changes the anon_vma reuse case to require that we only reuse simple anon_vma's - ie the case when the vma only has a single anon_vma associated with it. This means that a reuse of an anon_vma from an adjacent vma will always guarantee that both vma's are associated not only with the same anon_vma, they will also have the same anon_vma chain (of just a single entry in this case). And since anon_vma re-use was the only case where the same anon_vma might be associated with different chains of anon_vma's, we now have the case that every vma that shares the same anon_vma will always also have the same chain. That makes it much easier to think about merging vma's that share the same anon_vma's: you can always just drop the other anon_vma chain in anon_vma_merge() since you know that they are always identical. This also splits up the function to validate the anon_vma re-use, and adds a lot of commentary about the possible races.

f6be75d MIPS: Calculate proper ebase value for 64-bit kernels The ebase is relative to CKSEG0 not CAC_BASE. On a 32-bit kernel they are the same thing, for a 64-bit kernel they are not. It happens to kind of work on a 64-bit kernel as they both reference the same physical memory. However since the CPU uses the CKSEG0 base, determining if a J instruction will reach always gives the wrong result unless we use the same number the CPU uses.

7b3e543 MIPS: Fix __vmalloc() etc. on MIPS for non-GPL modules Commit b3594a089f1c17ff919f8f78505c3f20e1f6f8ce (lmo) rsp. 351336929ccf222ae38ff0cb7a8dd5fd5c6236a0 (kernel.org) break non-GPL modules that use __vmalloc() or any of the vmap(), vm_map_ram(), etc functions on MIPS. All those functions are EXPORT_SYMBOL() so are meant to be allowed to be used by non-GPL kernel modules. These calls all take page protection as an argument which is normally a constant like PAGE_KERNEL. This commit causes all protection constants like PAGE_KERNEL to not be constants and instead to contain the GPL-only symbol _page_cachable_default. This means that all calls to __vmalloc(), vmap(), etc, cause non-GPL modules to fail to link with the complaint that they are trying to use the GPL-only symbol _page_cachable_default... Change EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(_page_cachable_default) to EXPORT_SYMBOL() for non-GPL modules that call __vmalloc(), vmap(), vm_map_ram() etc. Signed-off-by: Anton Altaparmakov <aia21@cantab.net> Cc: Chris Dearman <chris@mips.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1084/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> 12 April 2010, 16:26:21 UTC

d814c28 MIPS: Move signal trampolines off of the stack. This is a follow on to the vdso patch. Since all processes now have signal trampolines permanently mapped, we can use those instead of putting the trampoline on the stack and invalidating the corresponding icache across all CPUs. We also get rid of a bunch of ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR code. [Ralf: GDB 7.1 which has the necessary modifications to allow backtracing over signal frames will supposedly be released tomorrow. The old signal frame format obsoleted by this patch exists in two variations, for sane processors and for those requiring ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR. So there was never a GDB which did support backtracing over signal frames on all MIPS systems. This convinved me this series should be applied and pushed upstream as soon as possible.] Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/974/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> 12 April 2010, 16:26:15 UTC
c52d0d3 MIPS: Preliminary VDSO This is a preliminary patch to add a vdso to all user processes. Still missing are ELF headers and .eh_frame information. But it is enough to allow us to move signal trampolines off of the stack. Note that emulation of branch delay slots in the FPU emulator still requires the stack. We allocate a single page (the vdso) and write all possible signal trampolines into it. The stack is moved down by one page and the vdso is mapped into this space.

847253b MIPS: Fix SSB PCIcore IO resource management The SSB PCIcore code reused the IO resource fixup code from the original 2.4.x Broadcom patch for BCM47xx based devices, which was a quick hack for doing PCI IO resource configuration back then (the boot loader doesn't configure PCI devices on this platform). However, this code is no longer necessary since the kernel now can do PCI resource management fine all by itself, so remove the old code. When removing the code, it becomes obvious that the mem_offset setting in the PCIcore driver was wrong, however this was masked by the fixup code before, except in a few cases involving yenta_socket. For BCM47xx, the correct offset is 0, and since this is the only device using PCIcore in host mode, the offset can simply be removed unconditionally.

0df5dd4 NFSv4: fix delegated locking Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a delegation since commit 8e469ebd6dc32cbaf620e134d79f740bf0ebab79 (NFSv4: Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it). According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file (since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using delegated opens. The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.

b80c3cb NFS: Ensure that writeback_single_inode() calls write_inode() when syncing Since writeback_single_inode() checks the inode->i_state flags _before_ it flushes out the data, we need to ensure that the I_DIRTY_DATASYNC flag is already set. Otherwise we risk not seeing a call to write_inode(), which again means that we break fsync() et al... Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> 09 April 2010, 23:08:17 UTC

ce82653 radix_tree_tag_get() is not as safe as the docs make out [ver #2] radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set() or radix_tree_tag_clear(). The problem is that the double tag_get() in radix_tree_tag_get(): if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset)) saw_unset_tag = 1; if (height == 1) { int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset); may see the value change due to the action of set/clear. RCU is no protection against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly. The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any functions reading the tree". The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the tag doesn't vary over time: BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag); This has been seen happening in FS-Cache: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held, and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from running concurrently with it.

d3e06e2 slub: Fix kmem_ptr_validate() for non-kernel pointers As suggested by Linus, fix up kmem_ptr_validate() to handle non-kernel pointers more graciously. The patch changes kmem_ptr_validate() to use the newly introduced kern_ptr_validate() helper to check that a pointer is a valid kernel pointer before we attempt to convert it into a 'struct page'.

It changes user-visible sysfs interfaces, and breaks some existing user space applications which apparently rely on the fact that the output does not contain the "0x" prefix.
