2009-02-11x86: pass in pt_regs pointer for syscalls that need itBrian Gerst
Some syscalls need to access the pt_regs structure, either to copy user register state or to modifiy it. This patch adds stubs to load the address of the pt_regs struct into the %eax register, and changes the syscalls to regparm(1) to receive the pt_regs pointer as the first argument.

2009-02-11x86: fix x86_32 stack protector bugsTejun Heo
Impact: fix x86_32 stack protector Brian Gerst found out that %gs was being initialized to stack_canary instead of stack_canary - 20, which basically gave the same canary value for all threads. Fixing this also exposed the following bugs. * cpu_idle() didn't call boot_init_stack_canary() * stack canary switching in switch_to() was being done too late making the initial run of a new thread use the old stack canary value. Fix all of them and while at it update comment in cpu_idle() about calling boot_init_stack_canary().

2009-02-11x86, apic: fix initialization of wakeup_cpuAlok Kataria
With refactoring of wake_cpu macros the 32bit code in tip doesn't execute generic_apic_probe if CONFIG_X86_32_NON_STANDARD is not set. Even on a x86 STANDARD cpu we need to execute the generic_apic_probe function, as we rely on this function to execute the update_genapic quirk which initilizes apic->wakeup_cpu. Failing to do so results in we making a call to a null function in do_boot_cpu. The stack trace without the patch goes like this.

In dasd_device_set_timer and dasd_block_set_timer we interpret the return value of mod_timer in a wrong way. If the timer expires in the small window between our check of timer_pending and the call to mod_timer, then the timer will be set, mod_timer returns zero and we will call add_timer for a timer that is already pending.

2009-02-11ptrace, x86: fix the usage of ptrace_fork()Oleg Nesterov
I noticed by pure accident we have ptrace_fork() and friends. This was added by "x86, bts: add fork and exit handling", commit bf53de907dfdaac178c92d774aae7370d7b97d20. I can't test this, ds_request_bts() returns -EOPNOTSUPP, but I strongly believe this needs the fix. I think something like this program int main(void) { int pid = fork(); if (!pid) { ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, NULL, NULL); kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP); fork(); } else { struct ptrace_bts_config bts = { .flags = PTRACE_BTS_O_ALLOC, .size = 4 * 4096, }; wait(NULL); ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, NULL, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK); ptrace(PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG, pid, &bts, sizeof(bts)); ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, NULL, NULL); sleep(1); } return 0; } should crash the kernel. If the task is traced by its natural parent ptrace_reparented() returns 0 but we should clear ->btsxxx anyway.

2009-02-11ALSA: hda - enable HDMI audio pin out at module loading timeWu Fengguang
We found that enabling/disabling HDMI audio pin out at stream start/stop time will kill the leading 500ms or so sound samples. Avoid this by enabling pin out once and for ever at module loading time. The leading ~500ms audio samples will still be lost when switching from X-channel playback to Y-channel playback where X != Y. However there's no much we can do about it: the audio infoframe has to change and it looks like either G45 or YAMAHA requires some time to switch the configuration.

2009-02-11ALSA: hda - allow multi-channel HDMI audio playback when ELD is not presentWu Fengguang
The YAMAHA AV-X1800 requires audio infoframe to include speaker-channel mapping to play >2 channel HDMI audio. In theory that mapping should be derived from its speaker configurations contained in its ELD. However we currently cannot get ELD in console before the KMS functionalities are ready. This is a more or less general issue at least in the near future. As a workaround, we propose to allow playback of mult-channel audio when ELD is not available.

2009-02-10sunhme: Fix Quattro HME irq registration on proble failuresMeelis Roos
Currently, the sunhme driver installs SBus Quattro interrupt handler when at least one HME card was initialized correctly and at least one Quattro card is present. This breaks when a Quattro card fails initialization for whatever reason - IRQ is registered and OOPS happens when it fires. The solution, as suggested by David Miller, was to keep track which cards of the Quattro bundles have been initialized, and request/free the Quattro IRQ only when all four devices have been successfully initialized. The patch only touches SBus initialization - PCI init already resets the card pointer to NULL on init failure. The patch has been tested on Sun E3500 with SBus and PCI single HME cards and one PCI Quattro HME card in a situation where any PCI card failed init when the SBus routines tried to init them by mistake. Additionally it replaces Quattro request_irq panic with error return - if this card fails to work, at least let the others work. Tested on E450 with PCI HME and PCI Quad HME.

2009-02-10Do not account for the address space used by hugetlbfs using VM_ACCOUNTMel Gorman
When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve with VM_NORESERVE. Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed. As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs at the risk of getting killed later. With commit fc8744adc870a8d4366908221508bb113d8b72ee, VM_NORESERVE and VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set.

See the statement marked with the label A. The statement B replaces the shost->transportt point with a local struct variable. static struct iscsi_cls_session * iscsi_tcp_session_create(struct iscsi_endpoint *ep, uint16_t cmds_max, uint16_t qdepth, uint32_t initial_cmdsn, uint32_t *hostno) { struct iscsi_cls_session *cls_session; struct iscsi_session *session; struct Scsi_Host *shost; int cmd_i; if (ep) { printk(KERN_ERR "iscsi_tcp: invalid ep %p.\n", ep); return NULL; } A shost = iscsi_host_alloc(&iscsi_sht, 0, qdepth); if (!shost) return NULL; B shost->transportt = iscsi_tcp_scsi_transport; shost->max_lun = iscsi_max_lun; Please note the scsi host is allocated by invoking isccsi_host_alloc() in libiscsi.c Polluting the middle level blank_transport_template in iscsi_host_alloc() of libiscsi.c The iscsi_host_alloc() invokes the middle level function scsi_host_alloc() in hosts.c for allocating a scsi_host. Then the statement marked with C assigns the iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out handler to the eh_timed_out callback function. struct Scsi_Host *iscsi_host_alloc(struct scsi_host_template *sht, int dd_data_size, uint16_t qdepth) { struct Scsi_Host *shost; struct iscsi_host *ihost; shost = scsi_host_alloc(sht, sizeof(struct iscsi_host) + dd_data_size); if (!shost) return NULL; C shost->transportt->eh_timed_out = iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out; Please note the shost->transport is the middle level blank_transport_template as shown in the code segment below. We see two problems here. 1. iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out is installed to the blank_transport_template that will cause some body else problem. 2. iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out will never be invoked when iscsi command gets timeout because the statement B resets the pointer. Middle level blank_transport_template In the middle level function scsi_host_alloc() of hosts.c, the middle level assigns a blank_transport_template for those hosts not implementing its transport layer. All HBAs without supporting a specific scsi_transport will share the middle level blank_transport_template. Please see the statement D struct Scsi_Host *scsi_host_alloc(struct scsi_host_template *sht, int privsize) { struct Scsi_Host *shost; gfp_t gfp_mask = GFP_KERNEL; int rval; if (sht->unchecked_isa_dma && privsize) gfp_mask |= __GFP_DMA; shost = kzalloc(sizeof(struct Scsi_Host) + privsize, gfp_mask); if (!shost) return NULL; shost->host_lock = &shost->default_lock; spin_lock_init(shost->host_lock); shost->shost_state = SHOST_CREATED; INIT_LIST_HEAD(&shost->__devices); INIT_LIST_HEAD(&shost->__targets); INIT_LIST_HEAD(&shost->eh_cmd_q); INIT_LIST_HEAD(&shost->starved_list); init_waitqueue_head(&shost->host_wait); mutex_init(&shost->scan_mutex); shost->host_no = scsi_host_next_hn++; /* XXX(hch): still racy */ shost->dma_channel = 0xff; /* These three are default values which can be overridden */ shost->max_channel = 0; shost->max_id = 8; shost->max_lun = 8; /* Give each shost a default transportt */ D shost->transportt = &blank_transport_template; Why we see panic at iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out() The mpp virtual HBA doesn’t have a specific scsi_transport. Therefore, the blank_transport_template will be assigned to the virtual host of the MPP virtual HBA by SCSI middle level. Please note that the statement C has assigned iscsi-transport eh_timedout handler to the blank_transport_template. When a mpp virtual command gets timedout, the iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out() will be invoked to handle mpp virtual command timeout from the middle level scsi_times_out() function of the scsi_error.c. enum blk_eh_timer_return scsi_times_out(struct request *req) { struct scsi_cmnd *scmd = req->special; enum blk_eh_timer_return (*eh_timed_out)(struct scsi_cmnd *); enum blk_eh_timer_return rtn = BLK_EH_NOT_HANDLED; scsi_log_completion(scmd, TIMEOUT_ERROR); if (scmd->device->host->transportt->eh_timed_out) E eh_timed_out = scmd->device->host->transportt->eh_timed_out; else if (scmd->device->host->hostt->eh_timed_out) eh_timed_out = scmd->device->host->hostt->eh_timed_out; else eh_timed_out = NULL; if (eh_timed_out) { rtn = eh_timed_out(scmd); It is very easy to understand why we get panic in the iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out(). A scsi_cmnd from a no-iscsi device definitely can not resolve out a session and session->lock. The panic can be happed anywhere during the differencing. static enum blk_eh_timer_return iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out(struct scsi_cmnd *scmd) { struct iscsi_cls_session *cls_session; struct iscsi_session *session; struct iscsi_conn *conn; enum blk_eh_timer_return rc = BLK_EH_NOT_HANDLED; cls_session = starget_to_session(scsi_target(scmd->device)); session = cls_session->dd_data; debug_scsi("scsi cmd %p timedout\n", scmd); spin_lock(&session->lock); This patch fixes the problem by moving the setting of the iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out to iscsi_add_host, which is after the LLDs have set their transport template to shost->transportt.

2009-02-10[SCSI] ibmvfc: Increase cancel timeoutBrian King
During cancel testing it has been shown that 15 seconds is not nearly long enough for the VIOS to respond to a cancel under loaded situations. Increasing this timeout to 60 seconds allows time for the VIOS to cancel the outstanding commands and prevents us from escalating to a full host reset, which can take much longer.

2009-02-10[SCSI] ibmvfc: Fix rport reloginBrian King
The ibmvfc driver has a bug in its SCN handling. If it receives an ELS event such asn an N-Port SCN event or an unsolicited PLOGI, or any other SCN event which causes ibmvfc_reinit_host to be called, it is possible that we will call fc_remote_port_add for a target that already has an rport added, which can result in duplicate rports getting created for the same targets. Fix this by calling fc_remote_port_rolechg in this scenario instead to report any possible role change that may have occurred.

2009-02-10[SCSI] ibmvfc: Fix command timeout errorsBrian King
Currently the ibmvfc driver sets the IBMVFC_CLASS_3_ERR flag in the VFC Frame if both the adapter and the device claim support for Class 3. However, this bit actually refers to Class 3 Error Recovery, which is currently not supported by the VIOS. Setting this bit can cause lots of command timeout responses from the VIOS resulting in general instability. Fix this by never setting this bit.

2009-02-10[SCSI] sg: fix device number in blktrace dataMartin Peschke
Hi, we have run into an issue with blktrace being started for sg devices. Please apply. Thanks, Martin From: Martin Peschke <mpeschke@linux.vnet.ibm.com> The device number denoting a generic SCSI devices (sg) in a blktrace trace is broken; major and minor are always 0. It looks like sdp->device->sdev_gendev.devt is not initialized properly. The fix below uses other data to make up a valid device number, similar to the way an sg device number is generated for sysfs output.
