A user reported a problem where ceph was getting into 100% cpu usage while doing
some writing. It turns out it's because we were doing a short write on a not
uptodate page, which means we'd fall back at one page at a time and fault the
page in. The problem is our position is on the page boundary, so our fault in
logic wasn't actually reading the page, so we'd just spin forever or until the
page got read in by somebody else. This will force a readpage if we end up
doing a short copy. Alexandre could reproduce this easily with ceph and reports
it fixes his problem. I also wrote a reproducer that no longer hangs my box
with this patch. Thanks,

I noticed a possible issue in the max_tp_rate2 management of
minstrel_ht. In particular, if we look up just among max_tp_rate2 of
each group it will be possible that the selected rate will not be the
mcs with second maximum throughput. I wrote this simple patch.

Current code calls omap4430_phy_init() twice in usb_musb_init().
Calling omap4430_phy_init() once is enough.
This patch removes the first omap4430_phy_init() call, which using an
uninitialized pointer as parameter.
This patch elimates below build warning:

Looks like 2600 kHz rate does not work reliably on 2430,
so just use the 100 kHz rate.

Remove OMAP4_USBC1_ICUSB_PWRDNZ_MASK during enable/disable PWRDNZ mode for
MMC1_PBIAS and associated extended-drain MMC1 I/O cell. This is in accordance
with the control module programming guide. This fixes a bug where if trying to
use gpio_98 or gpio_99 and MMC1 at the same time the GPIO signal will be
affected by a changing SDMMC1_VDDS.
Software must keep MMC1_PBIAS cell and MMC1_IO cell PWRDNZ signals low whenever
SDMMC1_VDDS ramps up/down or changes for cell protection purposes.
MMC1 is based on SDMMC1_VDDS whereas USBC1 is based on SIM_VDDS therefore
they can operate independently.

David reported:
Attached below is a watered-down version of rt/tst-cpuclock2.c from
GLIBC. Just build it with "gcc -o test test.c -lpthread -lrt" or
similar.
Run it several times, and you will see cases where the main thread
will measure a process clock difference before and after the nanosleep
which is smaller than the cpu-burner thread's individual thread clock
difference. This doesn't make any sense since the cpu-burner thread
is part of the top-level process's thread group.
I've reproduced this on both x86-64 and sparc64 (using both 32-bit and
64-bit binaries).
For example:
[davem@boricha build-x86_64-linux]$ ./test
process: before(0.001221967) after(0.498624371) diff(497402404)
thread: before(0.000081692) after(0.498316431) diff(498234739)
self: before(0.001223521) after(0.001240219) diff(16698)
[davem@boricha build-x86_64-linux]$
The diff of 'process' should always be >= the diff of 'thread'.
I make sure to wrap the 'thread' clock measurements the most tightly
around the nanosleep() call, and that the 'process' clock measurements
are the outer-most ones.

This is due to us using p->se.sum_exec_runtime in
thread_group_cputime() where we iterate the thread group and sum all
data. This does not take time since the last schedule operation (tick
or otherwise) into account. We can cure this by using
task_sched_runtime() at the cost of having to take locks.
This also means we can (and must) do away with
thread_group_sched_runtime() since the modified thread_group_cputime()
is now more accurate and would deadlock when called from
thread_group_sched_runtime().
Aside of that it makes the function safe on 32 bit systems. The old
code added t->se.sum_exec_runtime unprotected. sum_exec_runtime is a
64bit value and could be changed on another cpu at the same time.

The commit a810364a0424c297242c6c66071a42f7675a5568
ALSA: hda - Handle -1 as invalid position, too
caused a regression on some machines that require the position-buffer
instead of LPIB, e.g. resulting in noises with mic recording with
PulseAudio.
This patch fixes the detection by delaying the test at the timing as
same as 3.0, i.e. doing the position check only when requested in
azx_position_ok().

__find_resource() incorrectly returns a resource window which overlaps
an existing allocated window. This happens when the parent's
resource-window spans 0x00000000 to 0xffffffff and is entirely allocated
to all its children resource-windows.
__find_resource() looks for gaps in resource allocation among the
children resource windows. When it encounters the last child window it
blindly tries the range next to one allocated to the last child. Since
the last child's window ends at 0xffffffff the calculation overflows,
leading the algorithm to believe that any window in the range 0x0000000
to 0xfffffff is available for allocation. This leads to a conflicting
window allocation.

Apple Quad G5 has some oddity in it's device-tree which causes the new
generic matching code to fail to relate nodes for PCI-E devices below U4
with their respective struct pci_dev. This breaks graphics on those
machines among others.
This fixes it using a quirk which copies the node pointer from the host
bridge for the root complex, which makes the generic code work for the
children afterward.

Commit d5767c53535a ("bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' to the end
of do_basic_setup()") moved 'usermodehelper_enable()' to end of
do_basic_setup() to after the initcalls. But then I get failed to let
uvesafb work on my computer, and lose the splash boot.
So maybe we could start usermodehelper_enable a little early to make
some task work that need eary init with the help of user mode.
[ I would *really* prefer that initcalls not call into user space - even
the real 'init' hasn't been execve'd yet, after all! But for uvesafb
it really does look like we don't have much choice.
I considered doing this when we mount the root filesystem, but
depending on config options that is in multiple places. We could do
the usermode helper enable as a rootfs_initcall()..
So I'm just using wang yanqing's trivial patch. It's not wonderful,
but it's simple and should work. We should revisit this some day,
though. - Linus ]

Change details:
- Add a callback in the BNA, which is called before sending FW command to stop
RxQs. After this callback is called, driver should not post anymore Rx
buffers to the RxQ. This addresses a small window where driver posts Rx
buffers while FW is stopping/has stopped the RxQ.
- Registering callback function, rx_stall_cbfn, during bna_rx_create.
Invoking callback function, rx_stall_cbfn, before sending rx_cfg_clr
command to FW
- Bnad_cb_rx_stall implementation - set a flag in the Rxq to mark buffer
posting disabled state. While posting buffers check for the above flag.

Sep 20: Per Oleg's suggestion: Instead of caching and passing user namespace,
uid, and euid each separately, pass a struct cred.
Sep 26: Address Alan Stern's comments: don't define a struct cred at
usbdev_open(), and take and put a cred at async_completed() to
ensure it lasts for the duration of kill_pid_info_as_cred().

Wrong pointer is being passed for raw data sanity checking, when parsing
sample event.
This ends up with invalid event and perf record being stuck in
__perf_session__process_events function during processing build IDs
(process_buildids function).
Following command hangs up in my setup:
./perf record -e raw_syscalls:sys_enter ls
The fix is to use proper pointer to the raw data instead of the 'u'
union.

In the OF 'translations' property, the template TTEs in the mappings
never specify the executable bit. This is the case even though some
of these mappings are for OF's code segment.
Therefore, we need to force the execute bit on in every mapping.
This problem can only really trigger on Niagara/sun4v machines and the
history behind this is a little complicated.
Previous to sun4v, the sun4u TTE entries lacked a hardware execute
permission bit. So OF didn't have to ever worry about setting
anything to handle executable pages. Any valid TTE loaded into the
I-TLB would be respected by the chip.
But sun4v Niagara chips have a real hardware enforced executable bit
in their TTEs. So it has to be set or else the I-TLB throws an
instruction access exception with type code 6 (protection violation).
We've been extremely fortunate to not get bitten by this in the past.
The best I can tell is that the OF's mappings for it's executable code
were mapped using permanent locked mappings on sun4v in the past.
Therefore, the fact that we didn't have the exec bit set in the OF
translations we would use did not matter in practice.
Thanks to Greg Onufer for helping me track this down.

In the rds_iw_mr_pool struct the free_pinned field keeps track of
memory pinned by free MRs. While this field is incremented properly
upon allocation, it is never decremented upon unmapping. This would
cause the rds_rdma module to crash the kernel upon unloading, by
triggering the BUG_ON in the rds_iw_destroy_mr_pool function.
This change keeps track of the MRs that become unpinned, so that
free_pinned can be decremented appropriately.

In xen_memory_setup() all reserved regions and gaps are set to an
identity (1-1) p2m mapping. If an available page has a PFN within one
of these 1-1 mappings it will become inaccessible (as it MFN is lost)
so release them before setting up the mapping.
This can make an additional 256 MiB or more of RAM available
(depending on the size of the reserved regions in the memory map) if
the initial pages overlap with reserved regions.
The 1:1 p2m mappings are also extended to cover partial pages. This
fixes an issue with (for example) systems with a BIOS that puts the
DMI tables in a reserved region that begins on a non-page boundary.

Allow the extra memory (used by the balloon driver) to be in multiple
regions (typically two regions, one for low memory and one for high
memory). This allows the balloon driver to increase the number of
available low pages (if the initial number if pages is small).
As a side effect, the algorithm for building the e820 memory map is
simpler and more obviously correct as the map supplied by the
hypervisor is (almost) used as is (in particular, all reserved regions
and gaps are preserved). Only RAM regions are altered and RAM regions
above max_pfn + extra_pages are marked as unused (the region is split
in two if necessary).
