2015-02-07staging: comedi: addi_apci_1500: fix array access out of bounds errorH Hartley Sweeten
The private data 'pm', 'pt', and 'pp' array members hold the trigger mode parameters for ports A and B. Both ports are 8-bits and the arrays are 16-bits. Array index 0 defines the AND mode and index 1 the OR mode parameters for both ports. The valid triggers to start the async command are 0 to 3 which select the AND/OR mode for each port. The 'pb_trig' (the array index for port B) in apci1500_di_inttrig_start() is incorrect and results in an index of 0 or 2. Fix the calc so that the correct index (0/1) is used.

2015-02-06rhashtable: Fix remove logic to avoid cross references between bucketsThomas Graf
The remove logic properly searched the remaining chain for a matching entry with an identical hash but it did this while searching from both the old and new table. Instead in order to not leave stale references behind we need to: 1. When growing and searching from the new table: Search remaining chain for entry with same hash to avoid having the new table directly point to a entry with a different hash. 2. When shrinking and searching from the old table: Check if the element after the removed would create a cross reference and avoid it if so. These bugs were present from the beginning in nft_hash. Also, both insert functions calculated the hash based on the mask of the new table. This worked while growing. Wwhile shrinking, the mask of the inew table is smaller than the mask of the old table. This lead to a bit not being taken into account when selecting the bucket lock and thus caused the wrong bucket to be locked eventually.

2015-02-06rhashtable: Avoid bucket cross reference after removalThomas Graf
During a resize, when two buckets in the larger table map to a single bucket in the smaller table and the new table has already been (partially) linked to the old table. Removal of an element may result the bucket in the larger table to point to entries which all hash to a different value than the bucket index. Thus causing two buckets to point to the same sub chain after unzipping. This is not illegal *during* the resize phase but after it has completed. Keep the old table around until all of the unzipping is done to allow the removal code to only search for matching hashed entries during this special period.

2015-02-06rhashtable: Use a single bucket lock for sibling bucketsThomas Graf
rhashtable currently allows to use a bucket lock per bucket. This requires multiple levels of complicated nested locking because when resizing, a single bucket of the smaller table will map to two buckets in the larger table. So far rhashtable has explicitly locked both buckets in the larger table. By excluding the highest bit of the hash from the bucket lock map and thus only allowing locks to buckets in a ratio of 1:2, the locking can be simplified a lot without losing the benefits of multiple locks. Larger tables which benefit from multiple locks will not have a single lock per bucket anyway. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-02-06rhashtable: key_hashfn() must return full hash valueThomas Graf
The value computed by key_hashfn() is used by rhashtable_lookup_compare() to traverse both tables during a resize. key_hashfn() must therefore return the hash value without the buckets mask applied so it can be masked to the size of each individual table.

2015-02-06net: sxgbe: fix error handling in init_rx_ring()Dan Carpenter
There are a couple bugs with the error handling in this function. 1) If we can't allocate "rx_ring->rx_skbuff" then we should call dma_free_coherent() but we don't. 2) free_rx_ring() frees "rx_ring->rx_skbuff_dma" and "rx_ring->rx_skbuff" so calling it in a loop causes a double free. Also it was a bit confusing how we sometimes freed things before doing the goto. I've cleaned it up so it does error handling in normal kernel style.

2015-02-06ARM: 8297/1: cache-l2x0: optimize aurora range operationsArnd Bergmann
The aurora_inv_range(), aurora_clean_range() and aurora_flush_range() functions are highly redundant, both in source and in object code, and they are harder to understand than necessary. By moving the range loop into the aurora_pa_range() function, they become trivial wrappers, and the object code start looking like what one would expect for an optimal implementation. Further optimization may be possible by using the per-CPU "virtual" registers to avoid the spinlocks in most cases.

The aurora cache controller is the only remaining user of a couple of functions in this file and are completely unused when that is disabled, leading to build warnings: arch/arm/mm/cache-l2x0.c:167:13: warning: 'l2x0_cache_sync' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] arch/arm/mm/cache-l2x0.c:184:13: warning: 'l2x0_flush_all' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] arch/arm/mm/cache-l2x0.c:194:13: warning: 'l2x0_disable' defined but not used [-Wunused-function] With the knowledge that the code is now aurora-specific, we can simplify it noticeably: - The pl310 errata workarounds are not needed on aurora and can be removed - As confirmed by Thomas Petazzoni from the data sheet, the cache_wait() macro is never needed. - No need to hold the lock across atomic cache sync - We can load the l2x0_base into a local variable across operations There should be no functional change in this patch, but readability and the generated object code improves, along with avoiding the warnings.

2015-02-06xen/manage: Fix USB interaction issues when resumingRoss Lagerwall
Commit 61a734d305e1 ("xen/manage: Always freeze/thaw processes when suspend/resuming") ensured that userspace processes were always frozen before suspending to reduce interaction issues when resuming devices. However, freeze_processes() does not freeze kernel threads. Freeze kernel threads as well to prevent deadlocks with the khubd thread when resuming devices. This is what native suspend and resume does.

2015-02-06ACPI / EC: Add query flushing supportLv Zheng
This patch implementes the QR_EC flushing support. Grace periods are implemented from the detection of an SCI_EVT to the submission/completion of the QR_EC transaction. During this period, all EC command transactions are allowed to be submitted. Note that query periods and event periods are intentionally distiguished to allow further improvements. 1. Query period: from the detection of an SCI_EVT to the sumission of the QR_EC command. This period is used for storming prevention, as currently QR_EC is deferred to a work queue rather than directly issued from the IRQ context even there is no other transactions pending, so malicous SCI_EVT GPE can act like "level triggered" to trigger a GPE storm. We need to be prepared for this. And in the future, we may change it to be a part of the advance_transaction() where we will try QR_EC submission in appropriate positions to avoid such GPE storming. 2. Event period: from the detection of an SCI_EVT to the completion of the QR_EC command. We may extend it to the completion of _Qxx evaluation. This is actually a grace period for event flushing, but we only flush queries due to the reason stated in known issue 1. That's also why we use EC_FLAGS_EVENT_xxx. During this period, QR_EC transactions need to pass the flushable submission check. In this patch, the following flags are implemented: 1. EC_FLAGS_EVENT_ENABLED: this is derived from the old EC_FLAGS_QUERY_PENDING flag which can block SCI_EVT handlings. With this flag, the logics implemented by the original flag are extended: 1. Old logic: unless both of the flags are set, the event poller will not be scheduled, and 2. New logic: as soon as both of the flags are set, the evet poller will be scheduled. 2. EC_FLAGS_EVENT_DETECTED: this is also derived from the old EC_FLAGS_QUERY_PENDING flag which can block SCI_EVT detection. It thus can be used to indicate the storming prevention period for query submission. acpi_ec_submit_request()/acpi_ec_complete_request() are invoked to implement this period so that acpi_set_gpe() can be invoked under the "reference count > 0" condition. 3. EC_FLAGS_EVENT_PENDING: this is newly added to indicate the grace period for event flushing (query flushing for now). acpi_ec_submit_request()/acpi_ec_complete_request() are invoked to implement this period so that the flushing process can wait until the event handling (query transaction for now) to be completed.

2015-02-06ACPI / EC: Refine command storm prevention supportLv Zheng
This patch refines EC command storm prevention support. Current command storming code is wrong, when the storming condition is detected, it only flags the condition without doing anything for the current command but performing storming prevention for the follow-up commands. So: 1. The first command which suffers from the storming still suffers from storming. 2. The follow-up commands which may not suffer from the storming are unconditionally forced into the storming prevention mode. Ideally, we should only enable storm prevention immediately after detection for the current command so that the next command can try the power/performance efficient interrupt mode again. This patch improves the command storm prevention by disabling GPE right after the detection and re-enabling it right before completing the command transaction using the GPE storming prevention APIs. This thus deploys the following GPE handling model: 1. acpi_enable_gpe()/acpi_disable_gpe() for reference count changes: This set of APIs are used for EC usage reference counting. 2. acpi_set_gpe(ACPI_GPE_ENABLE)/acpi_set_gpe(ACPI_GPE_DISABLE): This set of APIs are used for preventing GPE storm. They must be invoked when the reference count > 0. Note that as the storming prevention should always happen when there is an outstanding request, or GPE enabling value will be messed up by the races. This patch also adds BUG_ON() to enforces this rule to prevent future bugs. The msleep(1) used after completing a transaction is useless now as this sounds like a guard time only useful for platforms that need the EC_FLAGS_MSI quirks while we have fixed GPE race issues using the previous raw handler mode enabling. It is kept to avoid regressions. A seperate patch which deletes EC_FLAGS_MSI quirks should take care of deleting it. Signed-off-by: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2015-02-06ACPI / EC: Add command flushing support.Lv Zheng
This patch implements the EC command flushing support. During the grace period indicated by EC_FLAGS_STARTED and EC_FLAGS_STOPPED, all submitted EC command transactions can be completed and new submissions are prevented before suspending so that the EC hardware can be ensured to be in the idle state when the system is resumed. There is a good indicator for flush support: All acpi_ec_submit_request() is invoked after checking driver state with acpi_ec_started() except the first one. This means all code paths can be flushed as fast as possible by discarding the requests occurred after the flush operation. The reference increased for such kind of code path is wrapped by acpi_ec_submit_flushable_request().

2015-02-06ACPI / EC: Introduce STARTED/STOPPED flags to replace BLOCKED flagLv Zheng
By using the 2 flags, we can indicate an inter-mediate state where the current transactions should be completed while the new transactions should be dropped. The comparison of the old flag and the new flags: Old New about to set BLOCKED STOPPED set / STARTED set BLOCKED set STOPPED clear / STARTED clear BLOCKED clear STOPPED clear / STARTED set A new period can be indicated by the 2 flags. The new period is between the point where we are about to set BLOCKED and the point when the BLOCKED is set. The new flags facilitate us with acpi_ec_started() check to allow the EC transaction to be submitted during the new period. This period thus can be used as a grace period for the EC transaction flushing. The only functional change after applying this patch is: 1. The GPE enabling/disabling is protected by the EC specific lock. We can do this because of recent ACPICA GPE API enhancement. This is reasonable as the GPE disabling/enabling state should only be determined by the EC driver's state machine which is protected by the EC spinlock.

2015-02-06kvm: add halt_poll_ns module parameterPaolo Bonzini
This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling itself out via kvm_vcpu_block. This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host. In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal, or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache). The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in. With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU. Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around 1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU. The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll, that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU. While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second. Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark, instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick. The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and a smaller variance. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2015-02-06ALSA: Add a helper to add a new attribute group to cardTakashi Iwai
For assigning sysfs entries for a card device from the driver, introduce a new helper function, snd_card_add_dev_attr(). In this way, we can avoid the possible race between the device registration and the sysfs addition / removal. The driver can pass a new attribute group to add freely. This has to be called before snd_card_register(). Currently, up to two extra groups can be added. More than that, it'll return an error. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2015-02-06Revert "IB/core: Add support for extended query device caps"Yann Droneaud
While commit 7e36ef8205ff ("IB/core: Temporarily disable ex_query_device uverb") is correct as it makes the extended QUERY_DEVICE uverb (which came as part of commit 5a77abf9a97a ("IB/core: Add support for extended query device caps") and commit 860f10a799c8 ("IB/core: Add flags for on demand paging support")) not available to userspace, it doesn't address the initial issue regarding ib_copy_to_udata() [1][2]. Additionally, further discussions around this new uverb seems to conclude it would require a different data structure than the one currently described in <rdma/ib_user_verbs.h> [3]. Both of these issues require a revert of the changes, so this patch partially reverts commit 8cdd312cfed7 ("IB/mlx5: Implement the ODP capability query verb") and commit 860f10a799c8 ("IB/core: Add flags for on demand paging support") and fully reverts commit 5a77abf9a97a ("IB/core: Add support for extended query device caps").
