printk: use mutex lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild
Although syslog_seq and log_next_seq stuff are protected by logbuf_lock
spin log, it's not enough. Say we have two processes A and B, and let
syslog_seq = N, while log_next_seq = N + 1, and the two processes both
come to syslog_print at almost the same time. And No matter which
process get the spin lock first, it will increase syslog_seq by one,
then release spin lock; thus later, another process increase syslog_seq
by one again. In this case, syslog_seq is bigger than syslog_next_seq.
And latter, it would make:
wait_event_interruptiable(log_wait, syslog != log_next_seq)
don't wait any more even there is no new write comes. Thus it introduce
a infinite loop reading.
I can easily see this kind of issue by the following steps:
# cat /proc/kmsg # at meantime, I don't kill rsyslog
# So they are the two processes.
# xinit # I added drm.debug=6 in the kernel parameter line,
# so that it will produce lots of message and let that
# issue happen
It's 100% reproducable on my side. And my disk will be filled up by
/var/log/messages in a quite short time.
So, introduce a mutex_lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild just like
what devkmsg_read() does. It does fix this issue as expected.

It incorrectly finds VGA connectors where none are attached, apparently
not noticing that nothing replied to the EDID queries, and happily using
the default EDID modes that have nothing to do with actual hardware.
That in turn then causes X to fall down to the lowest common
denominator, which is usually the default 1024x768 mode that is in the
default EDID and pretty much anything supports).
I'd suggest that if not relying on the HDP pin, the code should at least
check whether it gets valid EDID data back, rather than just assume
there's something on the VGA connector.

powerpc: Fix kernel panic during kernel module load
This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.
According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.
This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.
The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.
I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

the expiration time of the next event, because we sometimes get an early
decrementer interrupt, most notably when we set the decrementer to 1 in

if timer_interrupt() gets called early, we leave the decrementer set to
its maximum value, which means we then don't get any more decrementer
interrupts for about 4 seconds (or longer, depending on timebase
frequency). I saw these pauses as a consequence of getting a stray
hypervisor decrementer interrupt left over from exiting a KVM guest.

mm: correctly synchronize rss-counters at exit/exec
mm->rss_stat counters have per-task delta: task->rss_stat. Before
changing task->mm pointer the kernel must flush this delta with
sync_mm_rss().
do_exit() already calls sync_mm_rss() to flush the rss-counters before
committing the rss statistics into task->signal->maxrss, taskstats,
audit and other stuff. Unfortunately the kernel does this before
calling mm_release(), which can call put_user() for processing
task->clear_child_tid. So at this point we can trigger page-faults and
task->rss_stat becomes non-zero again. As a result mm->rss_stat becomes
inconsistent and check_mm() will print something like this:
This patch moves sync_mm_rss() into mm_release(), and moves mm_release()

btree: fix tree corruption in btree_get_prev()
The memory the parameter __key points to is used as an iterator in
btree_get_prev(), so if we save off a bkey() pointer in retry_key and
then assign that to __key, we'll end up corrupting the btree internals
when we do eg
longcpy(__key, bkey(geo, node, i), geo->keylen);
to return the key value. What we should do instead is use longcpy() to
copy the key value that retry_key points to __key.
This can cause a btree to get corrupted by seemingly read-only

ipc: shm: restore MADV_REMOVE functionality on shared memory segments
Commit 17cf28afea2a ("mm/fs: remove truncate_range") removed the
truncate_range inode operation in favour of the fallocate file
operation.
When using SYSV IPC shared memory segments, calling madvise with the
MADV_REMOVE advice on an area of shared memory will attempt to invoke
the .fallocate function for the shm_file_operations, which is NULL and
therefore returns -EOPNOTSUPP to userspace. The previous behaviour
would inherit the inode_operations from the underlying tmpfs file and
invoke truncate_range there.
This patch restores the previous behaviour by wrapping the underlying

mlx4_SET_PORT modifies the VL_cap field (byte 3 of the mailbox).
Since the SET_PORT command is paravirtualized on the master as well as
on the slaves, mlx4_SET_PORT_wrapper() is invoked on the master. This
calls mlx4_common_set_port() where mailbox byte 3 gets overwritten by
code which should only set a single bit in that byte (for the reset

x86/ioapic: Fix NULL pointer dereference on CPU hotplug after disabling irqs
In current Linux, percpu variable `vector_irq' is not cleared on
offlined cpus while disabling devices' irqs. If the cpu that has
the disabled irqs in vector_irq is hotplugged,
__setup_vector_irq() hits invalid irq vector and may crash.
The root cause seems to be the
default_send_IPI_mask_allbutself_phys() takes quite some time (I
measured it could be several ms) to complete sending NMIs to all
the other 23 CPUs, and for HZ=250/1000 system, the time is long
enough for a timer interrupt to happen, which will in turn
trigger to kick load balance to a stopped CPU and cause this
warning in native_smp_send_reschedule().
So disabling the local irq before stop_other_cpu() can fix this
problem (tested 25 times reboot ok), and it is fine as there
should be nobody caring the timer interrupt in such reboot
stage.
The latest 3.4 kernel slightly changes this behavior by sending
REBOOT_VECTOR first and only send NMI_VECTOR if the REBOOT_VCTOR
fails, and this patch is still needed to prevent the problem.

The reason is that the bit of node 2 was not set at
numa_nodes_parsed. numa_nodes_parsed is set by only
acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init /
acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init. Thus even if hot-added memory
which is same PXM as hot-added CPU is written in ACPI SRAT
Table, if the hot-added CPU is not written in ACPI SRAT table,
numa_nodes_parsed is not set.
But according to ACPI Spec Rev 5.0, it says about ACPI SRAT
table as follows: This optional table provides information that
allows OSPM to associate processors and memory ranges, including
ranges of memory provided by hot-added memory devices, with
system localities / proximity domains and clock domains.
It means that ACPI SRAT table only provides information for CPUs
present at boot time and for memory including hot-added memory.
So hot-added memory is written in ACPI SRAT table, but hot-added
CPU is not written in it. Thus numa_nodes_parsed should be set
by not only acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init /
acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init but also
acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init for the case.
Additionally, if system has cpuless memory node,
acpi_numa_processor_affinity_init /
acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init cannot set numa_nodes_parseds
since these functions cannot find cpu description for the node.
In this case, numa_nodes_parsed needs to be set by
acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init.
x86/decoder: Fix bsr/bsf/jmpe decoding with operand-size prefix
Fix the x86 instruction decoder to decode bsr/bsf/jmpe with
operand-size prefix (66h). This fixes the test case failure
reported by Linus, attached below.
bsf/bsr/jmpe have a special encoding. Opcode map in
Intel Software Developers Manual vol2 says they have
TZCNT/LZCNT variants if it has F3h prefix. However, there
is no information if it has other 66h or F2h prefixes.
Current instruction decoder supposes that those are
bad instructions, but it actually accepts at least
operand-size prefixes.
H. Peter Anvin further explains:
" TZCNT/LZCNT are F3 + BSF/BSR exactly because the F2 and
F3 prefixes have historically been no-ops with most instructions.
This allows software to unconditionally use the prefixed versions
and get TZCNT/LZCNT on the processors that have them if they don't
care about the difference. "

drm/i915: fix up ivb plane 3 pageflips
Or at least plug another gapping hole. Apparrently hw desingers only
moved the bit field, but did not bother ot re-enumerate the planes
when adding support for a 3rd pipe.
Discovered by i-g-t/flip_test.
This may or may not fix the reference bugzilla, because that one
smells like we have still larger fish to fry.
v2: Fixup the impossible case to catch programming errors, noticed by
Chris Wilson.

Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
"This fixes the possible premature superblock release on umount bug
mentioned during v3.5-rc1 pull request.
Originally, cgroup dentry destruction path assumed that cgroup dentry
didn't have any reference left after cgroup removal thus put super
during dentry removal. Now that there can be lingering dentry
references, this led to super being put with live dentries. This
patch fixes the problem by putting super ref on dentry release instead
of removal."

Merge branch 'i2c-embedded/for-current' of git://git.pengutronix.de/git/wsa/linux
Pull embedded i2c update from Wolfram Sang:
"This only contains one new driver which had multiple dependencies
(pinctrl, i2c-mux-rework, new devm_* functions), so I decided to wait
for rc1. Plus, it had to wait a little for the ack of a devicetree
maintainer since the bindings were not trivial enough for me to pass
through.
So, given that, I hope there is still something like the "new driver
rule", so we could have the driver in 3.5 and people can start using
it. That would make merging support for some boards easier for 3.6
since the dependency on this driver is gone then."

This patch fixes bug in macro radix_tree_for_each_contig().
If radix_tree_next_slot() sees NULL in next slot it returns NULL, but following
radix_tree_next_chunk() switches iterating into next chunk. As result iterating
becomes non-contiguous and breaks vfs "splice" and all its users.
