tools: create power/x86/x86_energy_perf_policy
MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS first became available on Westmere Xeon.
It is implemented in all Sandy Bridge processors -- mobile, desktop and server.
It is expected to become increasingly important in subsequent generations.
x86_energy_perf_policy is a user-space utility to set the
hardware energy vs performance policy hint in the processor.
Most systems would benefit from "x86_energy_perf_policy normal"
at system startup, as the hardware default is maximum performance
at the expense of energy efficiency.
See x86_energy_perf_policy.8 man page for more information.
Background:
Linux-2.6.36 added "epb" to /proc/cpuinfo to indicate
if an x86 processor supports MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS,
without actually modifying the MSR.
In March, 2010, Venkatesh Pallipadi proposed a small driver
that programmed MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS, based on
the cpufreq governor in use. It also offered
a boot-time cmdline option to override.
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/4/457
But hiding the hardware policy behind the
governor choice was deemed "kinda icky".
In June, 2010, I proposed a generic user/kernel API to
generalize the power/performance policy trade-off.
"RFC: /sys/power/policy_preference"
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/6/16/399
That is my preference for implementing this capability,
but I received no support on the list.
So in September, 2010, I sent x86_energy_perf_policy.c to LKML,
a user-space utility that scribbles directly to the MSR.
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/28/246
Here is that same utility, after responding to some review feedback,
to live in tools/power/, where it is easily found.

tools: create power/x86/turbostat
turbostat is a Linux tool to observe proper operation
of Intel(R) Turbo Boost Technology.
turbostat displays the actual processor frequency
on x86 processors that include APERF and MPERF MSRs.
Note that turbostat is of limited utility on Linux
kernels 2.6.29 and older, as acpi_cpufreq cleared
APERF/MPERF up through that release.
On Intel Core i3/i5/i7 (Nehalem) and newer processors,
turbostat also displays residency in idle power saving states,
which are necessary for diagnosing any cpuidle issues
that may have an effect on turbo-mode.

ipv4/route.c: respect prefsrc for local routes
The preferred source address is currently ignored for local routes,
which results in all local connections having a src address that is the
same as the local dst address. Fix this by respecting the preferred source
address when it is provided for local routes.
This bug can be demonstrated as follows:
# ifconfig dummy0 192.168.0.1
# ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0
local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 192.168.0.1
# ip route change table local local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 \
proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1
# ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0
local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1
We now establish a local connection and verify the source IP
address selection:
Thus without the patch, with the boot parameters 'tcb selinux=0', adding
the above 'dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t' rule to the default IMA TCB
measurement policy, would result in nothing being measured. The patch
prevents the default TCB policy from being replaced.

message block (SMB) and coalescing message block (CMB) when adapter ring
resources are freed. This is desirable behavior, but, as a side effect,
the commit leads to an oops when atl1_set_ringparam() attempts to alter
the number of rx or tx elements in the ring buffer (by using ethtool

Modify atl1_set_ringparam() to preserve SMB and CMB when changing ring

The problem was that a temporary page table mapping was being improperly
restored.
The PXA3xx resume code creates a temporary mapping of resume_turn_on_mmu
to avoid a prefetch abort. The pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu code requires
that the r1 register holding the address of this mapping not be
modified, however, resume_turn_on_mmu does modify it. It is mostly
correct in that r1 receives the base table address, but it may also
get other bits in 13:0. This results in pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu
restoring the original mapping to the wrong place, corrupting memory
and leaving the temporary mapping in place.

[media] cx25840: Prevent device probe failure due to volume control ERANGE error
This patch fixes a regression that crept into 2.6.36.
The volume control scale in the cx25840 driver has an unusual mapping
from register values to v4l2 volume control values. Enforce the mapping
limits, so that the default volume control setting does not fall out of
bounds to prevent the cx25840 module device probe from failing.

sound: Prevent buffer overflow in OSS load_mixer_volumes
The load_mixer_volumes() function, which can be triggered by
unprivileged users via the SOUND_MIXER_SETLEVELS ioctl, is vulnerable to
a buffer overflow. Because the provided "name" argument isn't
guaranteed to be NULL terminated at the expected 32 bytes, it's possible
to overflow past the end of the last element in the mixer_vols array.
Further exploitation can result in an arbitrary kernel write (via
subsequent calls to load_mixer_volumes()) leading to privilege
escalation, or arbitrary kernel reads via get_mixer_levels(). In
addition, the strcmp() may leak bytes beyond the mixer_vols array.
After grabbing a msg from the msgq, the mcfqspi_work function calls
list_del_init on the mcfqspi->msgq which unintentionally deletes the rest
of the list before it can be processed. If qspi call was made using
spi_sync, this can result in a process hang.

ppp: allow disabling multilink protocol ID compression
Linux would not connect to other router running old version Cisco IOS (12.0).
This is most likely a bug in that version of IOS, since it is fixed
in later versions. As a workaround this patch allows a module parameter
to be set to disable compressing the protocol ID.
RFC 1990 allows an implementation to formulate MP fragments as if protocol
compression had been negotiated. This allows us to always send compressed
protocol IDs. But some implementations don't accept MP fragments with
compressed protocol IDs. This parameter allows us to interoperate with
them. The default value of the configurable parameter is the same as the
current behavior: protocol compression is enabled. If protocol compression
is disabled we will not send compressed protocol IDs.
This is based on an earlier patch by Bob Gilligan (using a sysctl).
Module parameter is writable to allow for enabling even if ppp
is already loaded for other uses.

ueagle-atm: fix PHY signal initialization race
A race exists when initializing ueagle-atm devices where the generic atm
device may not yet be created before the driver attempts to initialize
it's PHY signal state, which checks whether the atm device has been
created or not. This often causes the sysfs 'carrier' attribute to be
'1' even though no signal has actually been found.
UPDATE_ATM_SIGNAL checks whether the ATM device has been created and if
not, will not update the PHY signal state. Because of the race that
does not always happen in time, and the PHY signal state remains
ATM_PHY_SIG_FOUND even though no signal exists.
To fix the race, just create the kthread during initialization, and only
after initialization is complete, start the thread that reboots the
device and initializes PHY state.

x86/microcode: Fix double vfree() and remove redundant pointer checks before vfree()
In arch/x86/kernel/microcode_intel.c::generic_load_microcode()
we have this:
while (leftover) {
...
if (get_ucode_data(mc, ucode_ptr, mc_size) ||
microcode_sanity_check(mc) < 0) {
vfree(mc);
break;
}
...
}
if (mc)
vfree(mc);
This will cause a double free of 'mc'. This patch fixes that by
just removing the vfree() call in the loop since 'mc' will be
freed nicely just after we break out of the loop.
There's also a second change in the patch. I noticed a lot of
checks for pointers being NULL before passing them to vfree().
That's completely redundant since vfree() deals gracefully with
being passed a NULL pointer. Removing the redundant checks
yields a nice size decrease for the object file.

text data bss dec hex filename

libata: issue DIPM enable commands with LPM state updated
Low level drivers may behave differently depending on the current
link->lpm_policy. During ata_eh_set_lpm(), DIPM enable commands are
issued after the successful completion of ap->ops->set_lpm(), which
means that the controller is already in the target state. This causes
DIPM enable commands to be processed with mismatching controller power
state and link->lpm_policy value.
In ahci, link->lpm_policy is used to ignore certain PHY events if LPM
is enabled; however, as DIPM commands are issued with stale
link->lpm_policy, they sometimes end up triggering these conditions
and get aborted leading to LPM configuration failure.
Fix it by updating link->lpm_policy before issuing DIPM enable
commands.

libata: no special completion processing for EH commands
ata_qc_complete() contains special handling for certain commands. For
example, it schedules EH for device revalidation after certain
configurations are changed. These shouldn't be applied to EH
commands but they were.
In most cases, it doesn't cause an actual problem because EH doesn't
issue any command which would trigger special handling; however, ACPI
can issue such commands via _GTF which can cause weird interactions.
Restructure ata_qc_complete() such that EH commands are always passed
on to __ata_qc_complete().
