7fa8e6f V4L/DVB (8092): videodev: simplify and fix standard enumeration VIDIOC_ENUMSTD did not return all the PAL/SECAM/NTSC variants: it just returned one single PAL/SECAM/NTSC standard without separate entries for the trickier standards like NTSC-JP. Changed the code so that it behaves better. Also simplified the if/switch statements into a common standards lookup table.

The tuner reset GPIO pin is likely incorrect as the tuner firmware cannot be reloaded without a reboot. It is likely the audio routing is done via GPIO which is not implemented yet, as users report audio doesn't work for some inputs.

5af4e7a [GFS2] fix gfs2 block allocation (cleaned up) This patch fixes bz 450641. This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for 509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located. It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2 (if it diverges from the first indirect block).

It currently uses a first match algorithm, stopping when it finds the first redirection table entry containing the vector.

6bf6a95 KVM: MMU: Fix oops on guest userspace access to guest pagetable KVM has a heuristic to unshadow guest pagetables when userspace accesses them, on the assumption that most guests do not allow userspace to access pagetables directly. Unfortunately, in addition to unshadowing the pagetables, it also oopses. This never triggers on ordinary guests since sane OSes will clear the pagetables before assigning them to userspace, which will trigger the flood heuristic, unshadowing the pagetables before the first userspace access. One particular guest, though (Xenner) will run the kernel in userspace, triggering the oops. Since the heuristic is incorrect in this case, we can simply remove it.

945754a mm: fix race in COW logic There is a race in the COW logic. It contains a shortcut to avoid the COW and reuse the page if we have the sole reference on the page, however it is possible to have two racing do_wp_page()ers with one causing the other to mistakenly believe it is safe to take the shortcut when it is not. This could lead to data corruption. Process 1 and process2 each have a wp pte of the same anon page (ie. one forked the other). The page's mapcount is 2. Then they both attempt to write to it around the same time... proc1 proc2 thr1 proc2 thr2 CPU0 CPU1 CPU3 do_wp_page() do_wp_page() trylock_page() can_share_swap_page() load page mapcount (==2) reuse = 0 pte unlock copy page to new_page pte lock page_remove_rmap(page); trylock_page() can_share_swap_page() load page mapcount (==1) reuse = 1 ptep_set_access_flags (allow W) write private key into page read from page ptep_clear_flush() set_pte_at(pte of new_page) Fix this by moving the page_remove_rmap of the old page after the pte clear and flush.

The recent changes to 'follow_page()' made the FOLL_ANON logic trigger not just for whole missing page tables, but for individual pages as well, and exposed this problem. This fixes it by making the test for when FOLL_ANON is used more careful, and also makes the code easier to read and understand by moving the logic to a separate inline function.

1b7558e futexes: fix fault handling in futex_lock_pi This patch addresses a very sporadic pi-futex related failure in highly threaded java apps on large SMP systems. David Holmes reported that the pi_state consistency check in lookup_pi_state triggered with his test application. This means that the kernel internal pi_state and the user space futex variable are out of sync. First we assumed that this is a user space data corruption, but deeper investigation revieled that the problem happend because the pi-futex code is not handling a fault in the futex_lock_pi path when the user space variable needs to be fixed up. The fault happens when a fork mapped the anon memory which contains the futex readonly for COW or the page got swapped out exactly between the unlock of the futex and the return of either the new futex owner or the task which was the expected owner but failed to acquire the kernel internal rtmutex. The current futex_lock_pi() code drops out with an inconsistent in case it faults and returns -EFAULT to user space. User space has no way to fixup that state. When we wrote this code we thought that we could not drop the hash bucket lock at this point to handle the fault. After analysing the code again it turned out to be wrong because there are only two tasks involved which might modify the pi_state and the user space variable: - the task which acquired the rtmutex - the pending owner of the pi_state which did not get the rtmutex Both tasks drop into the fixup_pi_state() function before returning to user space. The first task which acquired the hash bucket lock faults in the fixup of the user space variable, drops the spinlock and calls futex_handle_fault() to fault in the page. Now the second task could acquire the hash bucket lock and tries to fixup the user space variable as well. It either faults as well or it succeeds because the first task already faulted the page in. One caveat is to avoid a double fixup. After returning from the fault handling we reacquire the hash bucket lock and check whether the pi_state owner has been modified already.

Receiving packets while we are cleaning up a network namespace is a racy proposition. It is possible when the packet arrives that we have removed some but not all of the state we need to fully process it. We have the choice of either playing wack-a-mole with the cleanup routines or simply dropping packets when we don't have a network namespace to handle them. Since the check looks inexpensive in netif_receive_skb let's just drop the incoming packets. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

735ce97 sctp: Make sure N * sizeof(union sctp_addr) does not overflow. As noticed by Gabriel Campana, the kmalloc() length arg passed in by sctp_getsockopt_local_addrs_old() can overflow if ->addr_num is large enough. Therefore, enforce an appropriate limit.

a744e01 alpha: resurrect Cypress IDE quirk Which was removed in the hope that generic legacy IDE quirk in drivers/pci/probe.c is sufficient for Cypress IDE. It isn't, as this controller has non-standard BAR layout: secondary channel registers are in the BAR0-1 of the second PCI function - not in the BAR2-3 of the same function, as the generic quirk routine assumes.

d559d4a alpha: fix compile failures with gcc-4.3 (bug #10438) Vast majority of these build failures are gcc-4.3 warnings about static functions and objects being referenced from non-static (read: "extern inline") functions, in conjunction with our -Werror. We cannot just convert "extern inline" to "static inline", as people keep suggesting all the time, because "extern inline" logic is crucial for generic kernel build. So - just make sure that all callees of critical "extern inline" functions are also "extern inline"; - use "static inline", wherever it's possible. traps.c: work around gcc-4.3 being too smart about array bounds-checking. TODO: add "gnu_inline" attribute to all our "extern inline" functions to ensure desired behaviour with future compilers.

ede4269 alpha: link failure fix With built-in scsi disk driver, the final link fails with a following error: `.exit.text' referenced in section `.rodata' of drivers/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of drivers/built-in.o This happens with -Os (CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y) with all gcc-4 versions, and also with -O2 and gcc-4.3. The problem is in sd.c:sd_major() being inlined into __exit function exit_sd(), and the compiler generating a jump table in .rodata section for the 'switch' statement in sd_major(). So we have references to discarded section. Fixed with a big hammer in the form of -fno-jump-tables. Note that jump tables vs. discarded sections is a generic problem, other architectures are just lucky not to suffer from it. But with a slightly more complex switch/case statement it can be reproduced on x86 as well. So maybe at some point we should consider -fno-jump-tables as a generic compile option...
