[PATCH] qla3xxx NIC driver
This is a complementary network driver for our ISP4XXX parts.
There is a concurrent effort underway to get the iSCSI driver (qla4xxx)
integrated upstream as well.
I have been through several iterations with the linux-netdev list and have had
much response from Stephen Hemminger.
- Built and tested using kernel 2.6.17-rc4.
- The chip supports two ethernet and two iSCSI functions.
- The functions ql_sem_lock, ql_sem_spinlock, ql_sem_unlock, and
ql_wait_for_drvr_lock are used to protect resources that are shared across
the network and iSCSI functions. This protection is mostly during chip
initialization and resets, but also include link management.
- The PHY/MII are not exported through ethtool due to the fact that the
iSCSI function will control the common link at least 50% of the time.
This driver has been through several iterations on the netdev list and we feel
this driver is ready for inclusion in the upstream kernel.
It has been built and tested on x86 and PPC64 platforms.

Fix robust PI-futexes to be properly unlocked on unexpected exit.
For this to work the kernel has to know whether a futex is a PI or a
non-PI one, because the semantics are different. Since the space in
relevant glibc data structures is extremely scarce, the best solution is
to encode the 'PI' information in bit 0 of the robust list pointer.
Existing (non-PI) glibc robust futexes have this bit always zero, so the
ABI is kept. New glibc with PI-robust-futexes will set this bit.
Further fixes from Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
Fix pi_state->list handling bugs: list handling mishap, locking error.
Plus add more debug checks and fix a few style issues i noticed while
debugging this.
The dwarf2 unwinder currently often gets stuck because a lot
of assembly code doesn't have proper dwarf2 annotiation yet.
This currently often happens with __down. Should fix this by
adding proper dwarf2 annotation to all inline assembly. However
until that's done we need a quick fix for 2.6.18 to avoid
incomplete backtraces.
So when this happens dump the rest of the stack with the old unwinder
instead of silently not dumping it. There was already a optional
"both" mode that dumped both, but that was too ugly.
I also clarified the headers for the different backtraces a bit.
Also add a clear error message for missing dwarf2
annotation that people can work on.
And I removed a dead variable left over from Ingo's changes.

[PATCH] x86_64: Enlarge debug stack for nested kprobes
In x86_64 platform, INT1 and INT3 trap stack is IST stack called DEBUG_STACK,
when INT1/INT3 trap happens, system will switch to DEBUG_STACK by hardware.
Current DEBUG_STACK size is 4K, when int1/int3 trap happens, kernel will
minus current DEBUG_STACK IST value by 4k. But if int3/int1 trap is nested,
it will destroy other vector's IST stack. This patch modifies this, it sets
DEBUG_STACK size as 8K and allows two level of nested int1/int3 trap.
Kprobe DEBUG_STACK may be nested, because kprobe handler may be probed
by other kprobes.
Thanks jbeulich for pointing out error in the first patch.
[AK: nested kprobes are pretty dubious. Hopefully one nest
will be enough. This will cost 8K per CPU (4K more than before)]
[PATCH] x86_64: Don't clobber r8-r11 in int 0x80 handler
When int 0x80 is called from long mode r8-r11 would leak out of the
kernel (or rather they would be filled with some values from
the kernel stack). I don't think it's a security issue because
the values come from the fixed stack frame which should be near
always user registers from a previous interrupt.
Still better fix it.
Longer term the register save macros need to be cleaned up
to avoid such mistakes in the future.
Original analysis from Richard Brunner, fix by me.
[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Add user_mode checks to profile_pc for oprofile
Fixes a obscure user space triggerable crash during oprofiling.
Oprofile calls profile_pc from NMIs even when user_mode(regs) is not true and
the program counter is inside the kernel lock section. This opens
a race - when a user program jumps to a kernel lock address and
a NMI happens before the illegal page fault exception is raised
and the program has a unmapped esp or ebp then the kernel could
oops. NMIs have a higher priority than exceptions so that could
happen.
Add user_mode checks to i386/x86-64 profile_pc to prevent that.

[PATCH] Reorganize the cpufreq cpu hotplug locking to not be totally bizare
The patch below moves the cpu hotplugging higher up in the cpufreq
layering; this is needed to avoid recursive taking of the cpu hotplug
lock and to otherwise detangle the mess.
The new rules are:
1. you must do lock_cpu_hotplug() around the following functions:
__cpufreq_driver_target
__cpufreq_governor (for CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS operation only)
__cpufreq_set_policy
2. governer methods (.governer) must NOT take the lock_cpu_hotplug()
lock in any way; they are called with the lock taken already
3. if your governer spawns a thread that does things, like calling
__cpufreq_driver_target, your thread must honor rule #1.
4. the policy lock and other cpufreq internal locks nest within
the lock_cpu_hotplug() lock.
I'm not entirely happy about how the __cpufreq_governor rule ended up
(conditional locking rule depending on the argument) but basically all
callers pass this as a constant so it's not too horrible.
The patch also removes the cpufreq_governor() function since during the
locking audit it turned out to be entirely unused (so no need to fix it)
The patch works on my testbox, but it could use more testing
(otoh... it can't be much worse than the current code)

MTU, we should reduce it to the L2CAP MTU of the session minus five
bytes for the RFCOMM headers.

[PATCH] Cpuset: fix ABBA deadlock with cpu hotplug lock
Fix ABBA deadlock between lock_cpu_hotplug() and the cpuset
callback_mutex lock.
It only happens on cpu_exclusive cpusets, due to the dynamic
sched domain code trying to take the cpu hotplug lock inside
the cpuset callback_mutex lock.
This bug has apparently been here for several months, but didn't
get hit until the right customer load on a large system.
This fix appears right from inspection, but it will take a few
more days running it on that customers workload to be confident
we nailed it. We don't have any other reproducible test case.
The cpu_hotplug_lock() tends to cover large runs of code.
The other places that hold both that lock and the cpuset callback
mutex lock always nest the cpuset lock inside the hotplug lock.
This place tries to do the reverse, risking an ABBA deadlock.
This is in the cpuset_rmdir() code, where we:
* take the callback_mutex lock
* mark the cpuset CS_REMOVED
* call update_cpu_domains for cpu_exclusive cpusets
* in that call, take the cpu_hotplug lock if the
cpuset is marked for removal.
Thanks to Jack Steiner for identifying this deadlock.
The fix is to tear down the dynamic sched domain before we grab
the cpuset callback_mutex lock. This way, the two locks are
serialized, with the hotplug lock taken and released before
trying for the cpuset lock.
I suspect that this bug was introduced when I changed the
cpuset locking from one lock to two. The dynamic sched domain
dependency on cpu_exclusive cpusets and its hotplug hooks were
added to this code earlier, when cpusets had only a single lock.
It may well have been fine then.

The CPU hotplug locking was quite messy, with a recursive lock to
handle the fact that both the actual up/down sequence wanted to
protect itself from being re-entered, but the callbacks that it
called also tended to want to protect themselves from CPU events.
This splits the lock into two (one to serialize the whole hotplug
sequence, the other to protect against the CPU present bitmaps
changing). The latter still allows recursive usage because some
subsystems (ondemand policy for cpufreq at least) had already gotten
too used to the lax locking, but the locking mistakes are hopefully
now less fundamental, and we now warn about recursive lock usage
when we see it, in the hope that it can be fixed.
[cpufreq] ondemand: make shutdown sequence more robust
Shutting down the ondemand policy was fraught with potential
problems, causing issues for SMP suspend (which wants to hot-
