5576646 revert "mm: fix-up zone present pages" Revert commit 7f1290f2f2a4 ("mm: fix-up zone present pages") That patch tried to fix a issue when calculating zone->present_pages, but it caused a regression on 32bit systems with HIGHMEM. With that change, reset_zone_present_pages() resets all zone->present_pages to zero, and fixup_zone_present_pages() is called to recalculate zone->present_pages when the boot allocator frees core memory pages into buddy allocator. Because highmem pages are not freed by bootmem allocator, all highmem zones' present_pages becomes zero. Various options for improving the situation are being discussed but for now, let's return to the 3.6 code.

0f3c42f tmpfs: change final i_blocks BUG to WARNING Under a particular load on one machine, I have hit shmem_evict_inode()'s BUG_ON(inode->i_blocks), enough times to narrow it down to a particular race between swapout and eviction. It comes from the "if (freed > 0)" asymmetry in shmem_recalc_inode(), and the lack of coherent locking between mapping's nrpages and shmem's swapped count. There's a window in shmem_writepage(), between lowering nrpages in shmem_delete_from_page_cache() and then raising swapped count, when the freed count appears to be +1 when it should be 0, and then the asymmetry stops it from being corrected with -1 before hitting the BUG. One answer is coherent locking: using tree_lock throughout, without info->lock; reasonable, but the raw_spin_lock in percpu_counter_add() on used_blocks makes that messier than expected. Another answer may be a further effort to eliminate the weird shmem_recalc_inode() altogether, but previous attempts at that failed. So far undecided, but for now change the BUG_ON to WARN_ON: in usual circumstances it remains a useful consistency check.

498c228 mm: highmem: don't treat PKMAP_ADDR(LAST_PKMAP) as a highmem address kmap_to_page returns the corresponding struct page for a virtual address of an arbitrary mapping. This works by checking whether the address falls in the pkmap region and using the pkmap page tables instead of the linear mapping if appropriate. Unfortunately, the bounds checking means that PKMAP_ADDR(LAST_PKMAP) is incorrectly treated as a highmem address and we can end up walking off the end of pkmap_page_table and subsequently passing junk to pte_page. This patch fixes the bound check to stay within the pkmap tables.

9671009 mm: revert "mm: vmscan: scale number of pages reclaimed by reclaim/compaction based on failures" Jiri Slaby reported the following: (It's an effective revert of "mm: vmscan: scale number of pages reclaimed by reclaim/compaction based on failures".) Given kswapd had hours of runtime in ps/top output yesterday in the morning and after the revert it's now 2 minutes in sum for the last 24h, I would say, it's gone. The intention of the patch in question was to compensate for the loss of lumpy reclaim. Part of the reason lumpy reclaim worked is because it aggressively reclaimed pages and this patch was meant to be a sane compromise. When compaction fails, it gets deferred and both compaction and reclaim/compaction is deferred avoid excessive reclaim. However, since commit c654345924f7 ("mm: remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD"), kswapd is woken up each time and continues reclaiming which was not taken into account when the patch was developed. Attempts to address the problem ended up just changing the shape of the problem instead of fixing it. The release window gets closer and while a THP allocation failing is not a major problem, kswapd chewing up a lot of CPU is. This patch reverts commit 83fde0f22872 ("mm: vmscan: scale number of pages reclaimed by reclaim/compaction based on failures") and will be revisited in the future.

bea8c15 memcg: fix hotplugged memory zone oops When MEMCG is configured on (even when it's disabled by boot option), when adding or removing a page to/from its lru list, the zone pointer used for stats updates is nowadays taken from the struct lruvec. (On many configurations, calculating zone from page is slower.) But we have no code to update all the lruvecs (per zone, per memcg) when a memory node is hotadded. Here's an extract from the oops which results when running numactl to bind a program to a newly onlined node: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000f60 IP: __mod_zone_page_state+0x9/0x60 Pid: 1219, comm: numactl Not tainted 3.6.0-rc5+ #180 Bochs Bochs Process numactl (pid: 1219, threadinfo ffff880039abc000, task ffff8800383c4ce0) Call Trace: __pagevec_lru_add_fn+0xdf/0x140 pagevec_lru_move_fn+0xb1/0x100 __pagevec_lru_add+0x1c/0x30 lru_add_drain_cpu+0xa3/0x130 lru_add_drain+0x2f/0x40 ... The natural solution might be to use a memcg callback whenever memory is hotadded; but that solution has not been scoped out, and it happens that we do have an easy location at which to update lruvec->zone. The lruvec pointer is discovered either by mem_cgroup_zone_lruvec() or by mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(), and both of those do know the right zone. So check and set lruvec->zone in those; and remove the inadequate attempt to set lruvec->zone from lruvec_init(), which is called before NODE_DATA(node) has been allocated in such cases. Ah, there was one exceptionr. For no particularly good reason, mem_cgroup_force_empty_list() has its own code for deciding lruvec. Change it to use the standard mem_cgroup_zone_lruvec() and mem_cgroup_get_lru_size() too. In fact it was already safe against such an oops (the lru lists in danger could only be empty), but we're better proofed against future changes this way. I've marked this for stable (3.6) since we introduced the problem in 3.5 (now closed to stable); but I have no idea if this is the only fix needed to get memory hotadd working with memcg in 3.6, and received no answer when I enquired twice before.

9a5a8f1 memcg: oom: fix totalpages calculation for memory.swappiness==0 oom_badness() takes a totalpages argument which says how many pages are available and it uses it as a base for the score calculation. The value is calculated by mem_cgroup_get_limit which considers both limit and total_swap_pages (resp. memsw portion of it). This is usually correct but since fe35004fbf9e ("mm: avoid swapping out with swappiness==0") we do not swap when swappiness is 0 which means that we cannot really use up all the totalpages pages. This in turn confuses oom score calculation if the memcg limit is much smaller than the available swap because the used memory (capped by the limit) is negligible comparing to totalpages so the resulting score is too small if adj!=0 (typically task with CAP_SYS_ADMIN or non zero oom_score_adj). A wrong process might be selected as result. The problem can be worked around by checking mem_cgroup_swappiness==0 and not considering swap at all in such a case.

2a95388 Merge tag 'batman-adv-fix-for-davem' of git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-merge Included fixes are: - update the client entry status flags when using the "early client detection". This makes the Distributed AP isolation correctly work; - transfer the client entry status flags when recovering the translation table from another node. This makes the Distributed AP isolation correctly work; - prevent the "early client detection mechanism" to add clients belonging to other backbone nodes in the same LAN. This breaks connectivity when using this mechanism together with the Bridge Loop Avoidance - process broadcast packets with the Bridge Loop Avoidance before any other component. BLA can possibly drop the packets based on the source address. This makes the "early client detection mechanism" correctly work when used with BLA. Signed-off-by: David S.

The OMAP patches contain some fixes for MUSB/PHY on omap4 which ends up being a bit on the large side but needed for legacy (non-DT) platforms. Beyond that there are a handful of hwmod/pm changes. So, fairly noncontroversial stuff all in all, and as usual around this time the fixes are well targeted at specific problems." * tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: ARM: imx: ehci: fix host power mask bit ARM i.MX: fix error-valued pointer dereference in clk_register_gate2() ARM: at91/usbh: fix overcurrent gpio setup ARM: at91/AT91SAM9G45: fix crypto peripherals irq issue due to sparse irq support ARM: boot: Fix usage of kecho ARM: OMAP: ocp2scp: create omap device for ocp2scp ARM: OMAP4: add _dev_attr_ to ocp2scp for representing usb_phy drivers: bus: ocp2scp: add pdata support irqchip: irq-bcm2835: Add terminating entry for of_device_id table ARM: highbank: retry wfi on reset request ARM: OMAP4: PM: fix regulator name for VDD_MPU ARM: OMAP4: hwmod data: do not enable or reset the McPDM during kernel init ARM: OMAP2+: hwmod: add flag to prevent hwmod code from touching IP block during init ARM: dt: tegra: fix length of pad control and mux registers ARM: OMAP: hwmod: wait for sysreset complete after enabling hwmod ARM: OMAP2+: clockdomain: Fix OMAP4 ISS clk domain to support only SWSUP ARM: pxa/spitz_pm: Fix hang when resuming from STR ARM: pxa: hx4700: Fix backlight PWM device number ARM: OMAP2+: PM: add missing newline to VC warning message 16 November 2012, 18:08:45 UTC

This patch fixes code according with this sentence. Here are three points, which were not done in the initial patch: 1. A tcp send head should not be changed 2. Initialize TSO state of a skb 3. Reset the retransmission time This patch moves logic from tcp_sendmsg to tcp_write_xmit. A packet passes the ussual way, but isn't sent to network.

ae289dc s390/3215: fix tty close handling The 3215 console always has the RAW3215_FIXED flag set, which causes raw3215_shutdown() not to wait for outstanding I/O requests if an attached tty gets closed. The flag however can be simply removed, so we can guarantee that all requests belonging to the tty have been processed when the tty is closed. However the tasklet that belongs to the 3215 device may be scheduled even if there is no tty attached anymore, since we have a race between console and tty processing.

As pointed out by Ben Hutchings, this change is not correct. mdiobus_unregister() can't be called if the bus isn't registered yet, however this change can result in situations which cause that to happen. Part of the confusion here revolves around the fact that the callers of this module control registration/unregistration, rather than the module itself. Signed-off-by: David S.

769ce4c net/smsc911x: Fix ready check in cases where WORD_SWAP is needed The chip ready check added by the commit 3ac3546e [Always wait for the chip to be ready] does not work when the register read/write is word swapped. This check has been added before the WORD_SWAP register is programmed, so we need to check for swapped register value as well. Bit 16 is marked as RESERVED in SMSC datasheet, Steve Glendinning <steve@shawell.net> checked with SMSC and wrote: The chip architects have concluded we should be reading PMT_CTRL until we see any of bits 0, 8, 16 or 24 set. Then we should read BYTE_TEST to check the byte order is correct (as we already do). The rationale behind this is that some of the chip variants have word order swapping features too, so the READY bit could actually be in any of the 4 possible locations. The architects have confirmed that if any of these 4 positions is set the chip is ready. The other 3 locations will either never be set or can only go high after READY does (so also indicate the device is ready). This change will check for the READY bit at the 16th position. We do not check the other two cases (bit 8 and 24) since the driver does not support byte-swapped register read/write.

71c6c83 drivers/net: fix tasklet misuse issue In commit 175c0dff, drivers uses tasklet_kill to avoid put disabled tasklet on the tasklet vec. But some of the drivers uses tasklet_init & tasklet_disable in the driver init code, then tasklet_enable when it is opened. This makes tasklet_enable on a killed tasklet and make ksoftirqd crazy then. Normally, drivers should use tasklet_init/tasklet_kill on device open/remove, and use tasklet_disable/tasklet_enable on device suspend/resume.

b294200 ipv4/ip_vti.c: VTI fix post-decryption forwarding With the latest kernel there are two things that must be done post decryption so that the packet are forwarded. 1. Remove the mark from the packet. This will cause the packet to not match the ipsec-policy again. However doing this causes the post-decryption check to fail also and the packet will get dropped. (cat /proc/net/xfrm_stat). 2. Remove the sp association in the skbuff so that no policy check is done on the packet for VTI tunnels. Due to #2 above we must now do a security-policy check in the vti rcv path prior to resetting the mark in the skbuff.

c019bc1 TTY: hvc_console, fix port reference count going to zero prematurely Commit bdb498c20040 "TTY: hvc_console, add tty install" took the port refcounting out of hvc_open()/hvc_close(), but failed to remove the kref_put() and tty_kref_put() calls in hvc_hangup() that were there to remove the extra references that hvc_open() had taken. The result was that doing a vhangup() when the current terminal was a hvc_console, then closing the current terminal, would end up calling destroy_hvc_struct() and making the port disappear entirely. This meant that Fedora 17 systems would boot up but then not display the login prompt on the console, and attempts to open /dev/hvc0 would give a "No such device" error. This fixes it by removing the extra kref_put() and tty_kref_put() calls.

10e4423 ALSA: usb-audio: Fix mutex deadlock at disconnection The recent change for USB-audio disconnection race fixes introduced a mutex deadlock again. There is a circular dependency between chip->shutdown_rwsem and pcm->open_mutex, depicted like below, when a device is opened during the disconnection operation: A. snd_usb_audio_disconnect() -> card.c::register_mutex -> chip->shutdown_rwsem (write) -> snd_card_disconnect() -> pcm.c::register_mutex -> pcm->open_mutex B. snd_pcm_open() -> pcm->open_mutex -> snd_usb_pcm_open() -> chip->shutdown_rwsem (read) Since the chip->shutdown_rwsem protection in the case A is required only for turning on the chip->shutdown flag and it doesn't have to be taken for the whole operation, we can reduce its window in snd_usb_audio_disconnect().

Just before I leave, I would like to thank several individuals who made this possible at all: * Greg Kroah-Hartman, for his faith in my potential subsystem maintainer skills. Greg, I hope I met your expectations. * Late David Brownell, for helping me convert the i2c subsystem to the standard device driver model. Rest in peace David, we're missing you. * Ben Dooks, for stepping in when I asked for someone to take care of the huge flow of new i2c adapter drivers for embedded systems. * Wolfram Sang, for joining the crew when it became clear that there was more review work than Ben and myself could deal with. I hope I did not forget anyone, please forgive me if I did. Another big thank is due to Wolfram again, who quickly proposed to take over as the main i2c subsystem maintainer. This will allow for a smooth and fast transition. Note that I will keep maintaining all I2C/SMBus controller drivers for PC systems as well as a few others. I am hereby updating MAINTAINERS accordingly. I'll also keep maintaining user-space i2c-tools.

I root caused the issue to the fact that the headroom was 4 + 20 + 8 + 8. This math doesn't appear to be correct because we are not inserting a VLAN header, but instead a 2nd Ethernet header.

bd090df tcp: tcp_replace_ts_recent() should not be called from tcp_validate_incoming() We added support for RFC 5961 in latest kernels but TCP fails to perform exhaustive check of ACK sequence. We can update our view of peer tsval from a frame that is later discarded by tcp_ack() This makes timestamps enabled sessions vulnerable to injection of a high tsval : peers start an ACK storm, since the victim sends a dupack each time it receives an ACK from the other peer. As tcp_validate_incoming() is called before tcp_ack(), we should not peform tcp_replace_ts_recent() from it, and let callers do it at the right time.

bbc8d92 net: cdc_ncm: add Huawei devices A number of Huawei 3G and LTE modems implement a CDC NCM function, including the necessary functional descriptors, but using a non standard interface layout and class/subclass/protocol codes. These devices can be handled by this driver with only a minor change to the probing logic, allowing a single combined control and data interface. This works because the devices - include a CDC Union descriptor labelling the combined interface as both master and slave, and - have an alternate setting #1 for the bulk endpoints on the combined interface. The 3G/LTE network connection is managed by vendor specific AT commands on a serial function in the same composite device. Handling the managment function is out of the scope of this driver. It will be handled by an appropriate USB serial driver.

Only if deletion returns successfully the new mac address is set on OSA. Deletion may return with a return value "MAC not found on OSA". In this case qeth should continue setting the new mac address. When the OSA cable is pulled, OSA forgets any set mac address. If the OSA network interface acts as a slave to a bonding master interface, bonding can invoke the set_mac_address function for failover purposes and depends on successful setting of the new mac address even though the old mac address could no longer be deleted.

f0e3e35 USB: keyspan: fix typo causing GPF on open Commit f79b2d0f (USB: keyspan: fix NULL-pointer dereferences and memory leaks) had a small typo which made the driver use wrong offsets when mapping serial port private data. This results in in a GPF when the port is opened.

225ae5f MIPS: Malta: Fix interupt number of CBUS UART. The CBUS UART's interrupt number was wrong conflicting with the interrupt being tied to the Intel PIIX4. Since the PIIX4's interrupt is registered before the CBUS UART which is not being used on most systems this would not be noticed. Attempts to open the ttyS2 CBUS UART would result in: genirq: Flags mismatch irq 18. 00000000 (serial) vs. 00010000 (XT-PIC cascade) serial_link_irq_chain: request failed: -16 for irq: 18 Qemu was written to match the kernel so will need to be fixed also.

2f4f649 drm/i915: do not ignore eDP bpc settings from vbt There are laptops out there that need the eDP bpc from VBT. This is effectively a revert of commit 4344b813f105a19f793f1fd93ad775b784648b95 Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Fri Aug 10 11:10:20 2012 +0200 drm/i915: ignore eDP bpc settings from vbt but putting the VBT check after the EDID check to see them both in dmesg if this clamps more than the EDID. We have enough history with bpc clamping to warrant the extra debug info.
