2011-05-06rtc: m41t80: Initialize clientdata before registering deviceJohn Stultz
Commit f44f7f96a20 ("RTC: Initialize kernel state from RTC") uncovered an issue in a number of RTC drivers, where the drivers call rtc_device_register before initializing the clientdata. This frequently results in null pointer dereferences when the rtc_device_register immediately makes use of the rtc device, calling rtc_read_alarm. The solution is to ensure the clientdata is initialized prior to registering the rtc device.

2011-05-06reboot: disable usermodehelper to prevent fs accessKay Sievers
In case CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH is not set to "", which it should be on every system, the kernel forks processes during shutdown, which try to access the rootfs, even when the binary does not exist. It causes exceptions and long delays in the disk driver, which gets read requests at the time it tries to shut down the disk. This patch disables all kernel-forked processes during reboot to allow a clean poweroff.

2011-05-06Regression: partial revert "tracing: Remove lock_depth from event entry"Arjan van de Ven
This partially reverts commit e6e1e2593592a8f6f6380496655d8c6f67431266. That commit changed the structure layout of the trace structure, which in turn broke PowerTOP (1.9x generation) quite badly. I appreciate not wanting to expose the variable in question, and PowerTOP was not using it, so I've replaced the variable with just a padding field - that way if in the future a new field is needed it can just use this padding field.

2011-05-06vmxnet3: Consistently disable irqs when taking adapter->cmd_lockRoland Dreier
Using the vmxnet3 driver produces a lockdep warning because vmxnet3_set_mc(), which is called with mc->mca_lock held, takes adapter->cmd_lock. However, there are a couple of places where adapter->cmd_lock is taken with softirqs enabled, lockdep warns that a softirq that tries to take mc->mca_lock could happen while adapter->cmd_lock is held, leading to an AB-BA deadlock. I'm not sure if this is a real potential deadlock or not, but the simplest and best fix seems to be simply to make sure we take cmd_lock with spin_lock_irqsave() everywhere -- the places with plain spin_lock just look like oversights. The full enormous lockdep warning is: ========================================================= [ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ] 2.6.39-rc6+ #1

2011-05-06dccp: handle invalid feature options lengthDan Rosenberg
A length of zero (after subtracting two for the type and len fields) for the DCCPO_{CHANGE,CONFIRM}_{L,R} options will cause an underflow due to the subtraction. The subsequent code may read past the end of the options value buffer when parsing. I'm unsure of what the consequences of this might be, but it's probably not good.

2011-05-06hw_breakpoints, powerpc: Fix CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT off-case in ↵Frederic Weisbecker
ptrace_set_debugreg() We make use of ptrace_get_breakpoints() / ptrace_put_breakpoints() to protect ptrace_set_debugreg() even if CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT if off. However in this case, these APIs are not implemented. To fix this, push the protection down inside the relevant ifdef. Best would be to export the code inside CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT into a standalone function to cleanup the ifdefury there and call the breakpoint ref API inside. But as it is more invasive, this should be rather made in an -rc1.

Although rcu_yield() dropped from real-time to normal priority, there is always the possibility that the competing tasks have been niced. So nice to 19 in rcu_yield() to help ensure that other tasks have a better chance of running. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2011-05-05rcu: introduce kfree_rcu()Lai Jiangshan
Many rcu callbacks functions just call kfree() on the base structure. These functions are trivial, but their size adds up, and furthermore when they are used in a kernel module, that module must invoke the high-latency rcu_barrier() function at module-unload time. The kfree_rcu() function introduced by this commit addresses this issue. Rather than encoding a function address in the embedded rcu_head structure, kfree_rcu() instead encodes the offset of the rcu_head structure within the base structure. Because the functions are not allowed in the low-order 4096 bytes of kernel virtual memory, offsets up to 4095 bytes can be accommodated. If the offset is larger than 4095 bytes, a compile-time error will be generated in __kfree_rcu(). If this error is triggered, you can either fall back to use of call_rcu() or rearrange the structure to position the rcu_head structure into the first 4096 bytes. Note that the allowable offset might decrease in the future, for example, to allow something like kmem_cache_free_rcu(). The new kfree_rcu() function can replace code as follows: call_rcu(&p->rcu, simple_kfree_callback); where "simple_kfree_callback()" might be defined as follows: void simple_kfree_callback(struct rcu_head *p) { struct foo *q = container_of(p, struct foo, rcu); kfree(q); } with the following: kfree_rcu(&p->rcu, rcu); Note that the "rcu" is the name of a field in the structure being freed. The reason for using this rather than passing in a pointer to the base structure is that the above approach allows better type checking.

2011-05-05rcu: Converge TINY_RCU expedited and normal boostingPaul E. McKenney
This applies a trick from TREE_RCU boosting to TINY_RCU, eliminating code and adding comments. The key point is that it is possible for the booster thread itself to work out whether there is a normal or expedited boost required based solely on local information. There is therefore no need for boost initiation to know or care what type of boosting is required. In addition, when boosting is complete for a given grace period, then by definition there cannot be any more boosting for that grace period. This allows eliminating yet more state and statistics.

This commit adds an indication of the state of the callback queue using a string of four characters following the "ql=" integer queue length. The first character is "N" if there are callbacks that have been queued that are not yet ready to be handled by the next grace period, or "." otherwise. The second character is "R" if there are callbacks queued that are ready to be handled by the next grace period, or "." otherwise. The third character is "W" if there are callbacks waiting for the current grace period, or "." otherwise. Finally, the fourth character is "D" if there are callbacks that have been handled by a prior grace period and are waiting to be invoked, or ".". Note that callbacks that are in the process of being invoked are not shown. These callbacks would have been removed from the rcu_data structure's list by rcu_do_batch() prior to being executed. (These callbacks are also not reflected in the "ql=" total, FWIW.) Also, document the new callback-queue trace information. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
