Andreas Herrmann reported that 7d6b46707f24 ("x86, NUMA: Fix fakenuma
boot failure") causes certain physical NUMA topologies (for example
AMD Magny-Cours) to move sibling cpus to a single node when in reality
they are in separate domains.
This may result in some nodes being completely void of cpus, which
doesn't accurately represent the correct topology. The system will
boot, but will have suboptimal NUMA performance.
This commit was intended as a fix for NUMA emulation, but should
not cause a regression for real NUMA machines as a side effect.
( There will be a separate fix for the numa-debug code, which
will not affect physical topologies. )

pg_start is copied from userspace on AGPIOC_BIND and AGPIOC_UNBIND ioctl
cmds of agp_ioctl() and passed to agpioc_bind_wrap(). As said in the
comment, (pg_start + mem->page_count) may wrap in case of AGPIOC_BIND,
and it is not checked at all in case of AGPIOC_UNBIND. As a result, user
with sufficient privileges (usually "video" group) may generate either
local DoS or privilege escalation.

page_count is copied from userspace. agp_allocate_memory() tries to
check whether this number is too big, but doesn't take into account the
wrap case. Also agp_create_user_memory() doesn't check whether
alloc_size is calculated from num_agp_pages variable without overflow.
This may lead to allocation of too small buffer with following buffer
overflow.
Another problem in agp code is not addressed in the patch - kernel memory
exhaustion (AGPIOC_RESERVE and AGPIOC_ALLOCATE ioctls). It is not checked
whether requested pid is a pid of the caller (no check in agpioc_reserve_wrap()).
Each allocation is limited to 16KB, though, there is no per-process limit.
This might lead to OOM situation, which is not even solved in case of the
caller death by OOM killer - the memory is allocated for another (faked) process.

The locking with SMPS requests means that the
debugs file should lock the mgd mutex, not the
iflist mutex. Calls to __ieee80211_request_smps()
need to hold that mutex, so add an assertion.
This has always been wrong, but for some reason
never been noticed, probably because the locking
error only happens while unassociated.

As per OMAP3 erratum (i671), ROM code adds extra latencies while
restoring CM_AUTOIDLE_PLL register, if AUTO_PERIPH_DPLL is equal to 1.
This patch stores 0's in scratchpad content area corresponding to
AUTO_PERIPH_DPLL, to prevent ROM code to try to lock per DPLL, since
it won't respect proper programing scheme.
This register is then stored in prcm context. The saving and restore
is now done by kernel side.
Here follow the erratum description
DESCRIPTION
After OFF mode transition, among many restorations, the ROM Code restores the
CM_AUTOIDLE_PLL register, and after that, it tries to relock the PER DPLL.
In case the restoration data stored in scratchpad memory contains a field
CM_AUTOIDLE_PLL.AUTO_PERIPH_DPLL = 1, then the way the ROM Code restores and
locks the PER DPLL does not respect the PER DPLL programming scheme.
In that case, the DPLL might not lock. Meanwhile, when trying to lock the PER
DPLL, the ROM Code does not hang. Only extra latencies are introduced at
wake-up.
WORKAROUND
When saving the context-restore structure in scratchpad memory, in order to
respect the PER DPLL programming scheme, it is advised to store 0 in the
CM_AUTOIDLE_PLL.AUTO_PERIPH_DPLL field of the saved structure.
After wake-up, the application should store in CM_AUTOIDLE_PLL register the
right desired value.

DSS driver has used fck and ick clocks on OMAP2/3 to get DSS HW up and
running, and also to get the pixel clock's source clock rate from the
fck.
On OMAP4 the clock data is set up in a different way, as there's no ick,
dss_fck points to a fake clock which just affects DSS's MODULEMODE, and
dss_dss_clk if the DSS_FCK.
>From DSS driver's point of view the dss_fck sounds like an ick, and
dss_dss_clk is the fck. While this is not entirely correct from HW point
of view, especially for the ick, configuring the clock aliases that way
makes DSS "just work" with OMAP4's clock setup.
In the (hopefully near) future DSS driver will be reworked to use
pm_runtime support which should clean up the clock code.

This patch fixes UBIFS mount failure when the debugging support is enabled,
we are recovering from a power cut, we were first mounter R/O and we are
re-mounting R/W. In this case we should not assume that the amount of free
space before we have re-mounted R/W and after are equivalent, because
when we have mounted R/O the file-system is in a non-committed state so
the amount of free space is slightly smaller, due to the fact that we cannot
predict the amount of free space precisely before we commit.
This patch fixes the issue by skipping the debugging check in case of
recovery. This issue was reported by Caizhiyong <caizhiyong@huawei.com>

directories
An open on a NFS4 share using the O_CREAT flag on an existing file for
which we have permissions to open but contained in a directory with no
write permissions will fail with EACCES.
A tcpdump shows that the client had set the open mode to UNCHECKED which
indicates that the file should be created if it doesn't exist and
encountering an existing flag is not an error. Since in this case the
file exists and can be opened by the user, the NFS server is wrong in
attempting to check create permissions on the parent directory.
The patch adds a conditional statement to check for create permissions
only if the file doesn't exist.

The two "is_early_ioremap_ptep" checks in mask_rw_pte are only used on
x86_64, in fact early_ioremap is not used at all to setup the initial
pagetable on x86_32.
Moreover on x86_32 the two checks are wrong because the range
pgt_buf_start..pgt_buf_end initially should be mapped RW because
the pages in the range are not pagetable pages yet and haven't been
cleared yet. Afterwards considering the pgt_buf_start..pgt_buf_end is
part of the initial mapping, xen_alloc_pte is capable of turning
the ptes RO when they become pagetable pages.
Fix the issue and improve the readability of the code providing two
different implementation of mask_rw_pte for x86_32 and x86_64.

Check for required sample attributes using evsel rather than sample_type
in the session header. If the attribute for a default field is not
present for the event type (e.g., new command operating on file from
older kernel) the field is removed from the output list.
Expected event types must exist. For example, if a user specifies
-f trace:time,trace -f sw:time,cpu,sym
the perf.data file must contain both tracepoints and software events
(ie., it is an error if either does not exist in the file).
Attribute checking is done once at the beginning of perf-script rather
than for each sample.

The slave member of struct aggregator does not necessarily point
to a slave which is part of the aggregator. It points to the
slave structure containing the aggregator structure, while
completely different slaves (or no slaves at all) may be part of

The agg_device_up() function wrongly uses agg->slave to find the state
of the aggregator. Use agg->lag_ports->slave instead. The bug has

f6649a7e "[S390] cleanup lowcore access from external interrupts" changed
handling of external interrupts. Instead of letting the external interrupt
handlers accessing the per cpu lowcore the entry code of the kernel reads
already all fields that are necessary and passes them to the handlers.
The pfault interrupt handler was incorrectly converted. It tries to
dereference a value which used to be a pointer to a lowcore field. After
the conversion however it is not anymore the pointer to the field but its
content. So instead of a dereference only a cast is needed to get the
task pointer that caused the pfault.
Fixes a NULL pointer dereference and a subsequent kernel crash:
Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference at virtual kernel address (null)

The dasd_open function uses the private_data pointer of the gendisk to
find the dasd_block structure that matches the gendisk. When a DASD
device is set offline, we set the private_data pointer of the gendisk
to NULL and later remove the dasd_block structure, but there is still
a small race window, in which dasd_open could first read a pointer
from the private_data field and then try to use it, after the structure
has already been freed.
To close this race window, we will store a pointer to the dasd_devmap
structure of the base device in the private_data field. The devmap
entries are not deleted, and we already have proper locking and
reference counting in place, so that we can safely get from a devmap
pointer to the dasd_device and dasd_block structures of the device.

Currently we allocate the stale_map for a cpu when it comes online,
this leaves open a small window where a process can be scheduled
on the cpu before the stale_map is allocated. Instead allocate
the stale_map at CPU_UP_PREPARE time, that way it will be always
available before tasks start running.
It is possible the cpu fails to come up, in which case we should free
the stale_map, so add a CPU_UP_CANCELED case to do that.

When we start a cpu we use smp_ops->kick_cpu(), which currently
returns void, it should be able to fail. Convert it to return
int, and update all uses.
Convert all the current error cases to return -ENOENT, which is
what would eventually be returned by __cpu_up() currently when
it doesn't detect the cpu as coming up in time.

This is a first cut at making bootwrapper code which will
produce a zImage compliant with the requirements set down
by ePAPR.
This is a very simple bootwrapper, taking the device tree
blob supplied by the ePAPR boot program and passing it on
to the kernel. It builds on the earlier patch to build a
relocatable ET_DYN zImage to meet the other ePAPR image
requirements.
For good measure we have some paranoid checks which will
generate warnings if some of the ePAPR entry condition
guarantees are not met.

This patch adds code, linker script and makefile support to allow
building the zImage wrapper around the kernel as a position independent
executable. This results in an ET_DYN instead of an ET_EXEC ELF output
file, which can be loaded at any location by the firmware and will
process its own relocations to work correctly at the loaded address.
This is of interest particularly since the standard ePAPR image format
must be an ET_DYN (although this patch alone is not sufficient to
produce a fully ePAPR compliant boot image).
Note for now we don't enable building with -pie for anything.

On Book3E, MMU_NO_CONTEXT != 0, but the slice_mm_new_context()
macro assumes that it is. This means that the map of the
page sizes for each slice is always initialized to zeroes
(which happens to be 4k pages), rather than to the correct
default base page size value - which might be 64k.
This patch corrects the problem.
