The page decrypt calls in ecryptfs_write() are both pointless and buggy.
Pointless because ecryptfs_get_locked_page() has already brought the page
up to date, and buggy because prior mmap writes will just be blown away by
the decrypt call.
This patch also removes the declaration of a now-nonexistent function
ecryptfs_write_zeros().
Thanks to Eric Sandeen and David Kleikamp for helping to track this
down.

fsx w/ mmap dies quickly ( < 100 ops) without this, and survives

This version is a bit of a whopper. This version brings a few new checks,
improvements to a number of checks mostly through modifications to the
way types are parsed, several fixes to quote/comment handling, as well as
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.
Of note:
- return is not a function and is now reported,
- preprocessor directive detection is loosened to match C99 standard,
- we now intuit new type modifiers, and
- comment handling is much improved
Andy Whitcroft (18):
Version: 0.19
fix up a couple of missing newlines in reports
colon to parenthesis spacing varies on asm
values: #include is a preprocessor statement
quotes: fix single character quotes at line end
add typedef exception for the non-pointer "function types"
kerneldoc parameters must be on one line, relax line length
types: word boundary is not always required
improved #define bracketing reports
uninitialized_var is an annotation not a function name
possible types: add possible modifier handling
possible types: fastcall is a type modifier
types: unsigned is not a modifier on all types
static/external initialisation to zero should allow modifiers
checkpatch: fix recognition of preprocessor directives -- part 2
comments: fix inter-hunk comment tracking
return is not a function
do not report include/asm/foo.h use in include/linux/foo.h
return is not a function -- tighten test

This patch fixes two drivers that are using "serial" for driver_name and
not "ttyS" for dev_name. Drivers that are using "ttyS" for dev_name, will
conflict anyway, so we don't bother with these.

If a block is computed (rather than read) then a check/repair operation
may be lead to believe that the data on disk is correct, when infact it
isn't. So only compute blocks for failed devices.
This issue has been around since at least 2.6.12, but has become harder to
hit in recent kernels since most reads bypass the cache.
echo repair > /sys/block/mdN/md/sync_action will set the parity blocks to the
correct state.

During the initial array synchronization process there is a window between
when a prexor operation is scheduled to a specific stripe and when it
completes for a sync_request to be scheduled to the same stripe. When
this happens the prexor completes and the stripe is unconditionally marked
"insync", effectively canceling the sync_request for the stripe. Prior to
2.6.23 this was not a problem because the prexor operation was done under
sh->lock. The effect in older kernels being that the prexor would still
erroneously mark the stripe "insync", but sync_request would be held off
and re-mark the stripe as "!in_sync".
Change the write completion logic to not mark the stripe "in_sync" if a
prexor was performed. The effect of the change is to sometimes not set
STRIPE_INSYNC. The worst this can do is cause the resync to stall waiting
for STRIPE_INSYNC to be set. If this were happening, then STRIPE_SYNCING
would be set and handle_issuing_new_read_requests would cause all
available blocks to eventually be read, at which point prexor would never
be used on that stripe any more and STRIPE_INSYNC would eventually be set.
echo repair > /sys/block/mdN/md/sync_action will correct arrays that may
have lost this race.

This addresses other oopsing paths in "spidev" by changing how it manages
refcounting. It decouples the lifecycle of the per-device data from the
class device (not just the spi device):
- Use class_{create,destroy} not class_{register,unregister}.
- Use device_{create,destroy} not device_{register,unregister}.
- Free the per-device data only when TWO conditions are true:
* Driver is unbound from underlying SPI device, and
* Device is no longer open (new)
Also, spi_{get,set}_drvdata not dev_{get,set}_drvdata for simpler code.

The call to add_timer was issued before local_int.lock was taken and before
timer_due was set to 0. If the timer expires before the lock is being taken,
the timer function will set timer_due to 1 and exit before the vcpu falls
asleep. Depending on other external events, the vcpu might sleep forever.
This fix pulls setting timer_due to the beginning of the function before
add_timer, which ensures correct behavior.

The low-level interrupt handler on s390 checks for _TIF_WORK_INT and
exits the guest context, if work is pending.
TIF_WORK_INT is defined as_TIF_SIGPENDING | _TIF_NEED_RESCHED |
_TIF_MCCK_PENDING. Currently the sie loop checks for signals and
reschedule, but it does not check for machine checks. That means that
we exit the guest context if a machine check is pending, but we do not
handle the machine check.

There are potential locking problem in enable_sie. We take the task_lock
and the mmap_sem. As exit_mm uses the same locks vice versa, this triggers
a lockdep warning.
The second problem is that dup_mm and mmput might sleep, so we must not
hold the task_lock at that moment.
The solution is to dup the mm unconditional and use the task_lock before and
afterwards to check if we can use the new mm. dup_mm and mmput are called
outside the task_lock, but we run update_mm while holding the task_lock,
protection us against ptrace.

The hypercall instructions on Intel and AMD are different. KVM allows the
guest to choose one or the other (the default is Intel), and if the guest
chooses incorrectly, KVM will patch it at runtime to select the correct
instruction. This allows live migration between Intel and AMD machines.
This patching occurs in the x86 emulator. The current code also executes
the hypercall. Unfortunately, the tail end of the x86 emulator code also
executes, overwriting the return value of the hypercall with the original
contents of rax (which happens to be the hypercall number).
Fix not by executing the hypercall in the emulator context; instead let the
guest reissue the patched instruction and execute the hypercall via the
normal path.

cpusets
First issue is not related to the cpusets. We're simply leaking doms_cur.
It's allocated in arch_init_sched_domains() which is called for every
hotplug event. So we just keep reallocation doms_cur without freeing it.
I introduced free_sched_domains() function that cleans things up.
Second issue is that sched domains created by the cpusets are
completely destroyed by the CPU hotplug events. For all CPU hotplug
events scheduler attaches all CPUs to the NULL domain and then puts
them all into the single domain thereby destroying domains created
by the cpusets (partition_sched_domains).
The solution is simple, when cpusets are enabled scheduler should not
create default domain and instead let cpusets do that. Which is
exactly what the patch does.

The RT folks over at RedHat found an issue w.r.t. hotplug support which
was traced to problems with the cpupri infrastructure in the scheduler:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449676
This bug affects 23-rt12+, 24-rtX, 25-rtX, and sched-devel. This patch
applies to 25.4-rt4, though it should trivially apply to most cpupri enabled
kernels mentioned above.
It turned out that the issue was that offline cpus could get inadvertently
registered with cpupri so that they were erroneously selected during
migration decisions. The end result would be an OOPS as the offline cpu
had tasks routed to it.
This patch generalizes the old join/leave domain interface into an
online/offline interface, and adjusts the root-domain/hotplug code to
utilize it.
I was able to easily reproduce the issue prior to this patch, and am no
longer able to reproduce it after this patch. I can offline cpus
indefinately and everything seems to be in working order.
Thanks to Arnaldo (acme), Thomas, and Peter for doing the legwork to point
me in the right direction. Also thank you to Peter for reviewing the
early iterations of this patch.

are loaded, to narrow down the candidate code list.

Nothing really serious here, mainly just a matter of nit-picking :-/
From: Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com>
For CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG && CONFIG_SYSCT configs, sd->flags can be altered
while being manipulated in rebalance_domains(). Let's do an atomic check.
We rely here on the atomicity of read/write accesses for aligned words.

The current code use a linear algorithm which causes scaling issues
on larger SMP machines. This patch replaces that algorithm with a
2-dimensional bitmap to reduce latencies in the wake-up path.

Dmitry Adamushko pointed out a known flaw in the rt-balancing algorithm
that could allow suboptimal balancing if a non-migratable task gets
queued behind a running migratable one. It is discussed in this thread:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/22/296
This issue has been further exacerbated by a recent checkin to
sched-devel (git-id 5eee63a5ebc19a870ac40055c0be49457f3a89a3).
>From a pure priority standpoint, the run-queue is doing the "right"
thing. Using Dmitry's nomenclature, if T0 is on cpu1 first, and T1
wakes up at equal or lower priority (affined only to cpu1) later, it
*should* wait for T0 to finish. However, in reality that is likely
suboptimal from a system perspective if there are other cores that
could allow T0 and T1 to run concurrently. Since T1 can not migrate,
the only choice for higher concurrency is to try to move T0. This is
not something we addessed in the recent rt-balancing re-work.
This patch tries to enhance the balancing algorithm by accomodating this
scenario. It accomplishes this by incorporating the migratability of a
task into its priority calculation. Within a numerical tsk->prio, a
non-migratable task is logically higher than a migratable one. We
maintain this by introducing a new per-priority queue (xqueue, or
exclusive-queue) for holding non-migratable tasks. The scheduler will
draw from the xqueue over the standard shared-queue (squeue) when
available.
There are several details for utilizing this properly.
1) During task-wake-up, we not only need to check if the priority
preempts the current task, but we also need to check for this
non-migratable condition. Therefore, if a non-migratable task wakes
up and sees an equal priority migratable task already running, it
will attempt to preempt it *if* there is a likelyhood that the
current task will find an immediate home.
2) Tasks only get this non-migratable "priority boost" on wake-up. Any
requeuing will result in the non-migratable task being queued to the
end of the shared queue. This is an attempt to prevent the system
from being completely unfair to migratable tasks during things like
SCHED_RR timeslicing.
I am sure this patch introduces potentially "odd" behavior if you
concoct a scenario where a bunch of non-migratable threads could starve
migratable ones given the right pattern. I am not yet convinced that
this is a problem since we are talking about tasks of equal RT priority
anyway, and there never is much in the way of guarantees against
starvation under that scenario anyway. (e.g. you could come up with a
similar scenario with a specific timing environment verses an affinity
environment). I can be convinced otherwise, but for now I think this is
"ok".

When the Linux kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ=y,
the Soundblaster Audigy2 ZS Notebook PCMCIA card causes the
system hang during boot (udev stage) or when the card is hot-plug.
The CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ flag is by default 'y' with all Fedora
kernels since 2.6.23. The problem was reported as
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=326411
The issue was hunted down to the snd_emu10k1_create() routine:
/* pseudo-code */
snd_emu10k1_create(...) {
...
request_irq(... IRQF_SHARED ...) {
register the irq handler
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ
call the irq handler: snd_emu10k1_interrupt() {
poll I/O port // <---- !! system hangs
...
}
#endif
}
...
snd_emu10k1_cardbus_init(...) {
initialize I/O ports
}
...
}
The early access to I/O port in the interrupt handler causes
the freeze. Obviously it is necessary to init the I/O ports
before accessing them. This patch moves the registration of
the irq handler after the initialization of the I/O ports.
