- 8-bit interface mode never worked properly. The only adapter I have
which supports the 8b mode (the Jmicron) had some problems with its
clock wiring and they discovered it only now. We also discovered that
ProHG media is more sensitive to the ordering of initialization
commands.
- Make the driver fall back to highest supported mode instead of always
falling back to serial. The driver will attempt the switch to 8b mode
for any new MSPro card, but not all of them support it. Previously,
these new cards ended up in serial mode, which is not the best idea
(they work fine with 4b, after all).
- Edit some macros for better conformance to Sony documentation

The iterator for_each_zone_zonelist() uses a struct zoneref *z cursor when
scanning zonelists to keep track of where in the zonelist it is. The
zoneref that is returned corresponds to the the next zone that is to be
scanned, not the current one. It was intended to be treated as an opaque
list.
When the page allocator is scanning a zonelist, it marks elements in the
zonelist corresponding to zones that are temporarily full. As the
zonelist is being updated, it uses the cursor here;
if (NUMA_BUILD)
zlc_mark_zone_full(zonelist, z);
This is intended to prevent rescanning in the near future but the zoneref
cursor does not correspond to the zone that has been found to be full.
This is an easy misunderstanding to make so this patch corrects the
problem by changing zoneref cursor to be the current zone being scanned
instead of the next one.

I recently bought 3 HGST P7K500-series 500GB SATA drives and
had trouble accessing the block right on the LBA28-LBA48 border.
Here's how it fails (same for all 3 drives):
# dd if=/dev/sdc bs=512 count=1 skip=268435455 > /dev/null
dd: reading `/dev/sdc': Input/output error

ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR }
ata1.00: error: { ABRT }
ata1.00: configured for UDMA/33
ata1: EH complete
...
After some investigations, it turned out this seems to be caused
by misinterpretation of the ATA specification on LBA28 access.
Following part is the code in question:
=== include/linux/ata.h ===
static inline int lba_28_ok(u64 block, u32 n_block)
{
/* check the ending block number */
return ((block + n_block - 1) < ((u64)1 << 28)) && (n_block <= 256);
}
HGST drive (sometimes) fails with LBA28 access of {block = 0xfffffff,
n_block = 1}, and this behavior seems to be comformant. Other drives,
including other HGST drives are not that strict, through.
>From the ATA specification:
(http://www.t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/project/d1410r3b-ATA-ATAPI-6.pdf)
8.15.29 Word (61:60): Total number of user addressable sectors
This field contains a value that is one greater than the total number
of user addressable sectors (see 6.2). The maximum value that shall
be placed in this field is 0FFFFFFFh.
So the driver shouldn't use the value of 0xfffffff for LBA28 request
as this exceeds maximum user addressable sector. The logical maximum
value for LBA28 is 0xffffffe.
The obvious fix is to cut "- 1" part, and the patch attached just do
that. I've been using the patched kernel for about a month now, and
the same fix is also floating on the net for some time. So I believe
this fix works reliably.
Just FYI, many Windows/Intel platform users also seems to be struck
by this, and HGST has issued a note pointing to Intel ICH8/9 driver.
"28-bit LBA command is being used to access LBAs 29-bits in length"
http://www.hitachigst.com/hddt/knowtree.nsf/cffe836ed7c12018862565b000530c74/b531b8bce8745fb78825740f00580e23
Also, *BSDs seems to have similar fix included sometime around ~2004,
through I have not checked out exact portion of the code.

This is the line in nla_ok():
/**
* nla_ok - check if the netlink attribute fits into the remaining bytes
* @nla: netlink attribute
* @remaining: number of bytes remaining in attribute stream
*/
static inline int nla_ok(const struct nlattr *nla, int remaining)
{
return remaining >= sizeof(*nla) &&
nla->nla_len >= sizeof(*nla) &&
nla->nla_len <= remaining;
}
It turns out that remaining can become negative due to alignment in
nla_next(). But GCC promotes "remaining" to unsigned in the test
against sizeof(*nla) above. Therefore the test succeeds, and the
nla_for_each_attr() may access memory outside the received buffer.
A short example illustrating this point is here:
#include <stdio.h>
main(void)
{
printf("%d\n", -1 >= sizeof(int));
}
...which prints "1".
This patch adds a cast in front of the sizeof so that GCC will make
a signed comparison and fix the illegal memory dereference. With the
patch applied, there is no kmemcheck report.

It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer
formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7bd0020f29ffe287dfdb9ead33ca0b2. However,
the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1)
parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for
function descriptors
Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing
architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64
and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel
internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

The Security Mode 4 of the Bluetooth 2.1 specification has strict
authentication and encryption requirements. It is the initiators job
to create a secure ACL link. However in case of malicious devices, the
acceptor has to make sure that the ACL is encrypted before allowing
any kind of L2CAP connection. The only exception here is the PSM 1 for
the service discovery protocol, because that is allowed to run on an
insecure ACL link.
Previously it was enough to reject a L2CAP connection during the
connection setup phase, but with Bluetooth 2.1 it is forbidden to
do any L2CAP protocol exchange on an insecure link (except SDP).
The new hci_conn_check_link_mode() function can be used to check the
integrity of an ACL link. This functions also takes care of the cases
where Security Mode 4 is disabled or one of the devices is based on
an older specification.

With the introduction of Security Mode 4 and Simple Pairing from the
Bluetooth 2.1 specification it became mandatory that the initiator
requires authentication and encryption before any L2CAP channel can
be established. The only exception here is PSM 1 for the service
discovery protocol (SDP). It is meant to be used without any encryption
since it contains only public information. This is how Bluetooth 2.0
and before handle connections on PSM 1.
For Bluetooth 2.1 devices the pairing procedure differentiates between
no bonding, general bonding and dedicated bonding. The L2CAP layer
wrongly uses always general bonding when creating new connections, but it
should not do this for SDP connections. In this case the authentication
requirement should be no bonding and the just-works model should be used,
but in case of non-SDP connection it is required to use general bonding.
If the new connection requires man-in-the-middle (MITM) protection, it
also first wrongly creates an unauthenticated link key and then later on
requests an upgrade to an authenticated link key to provide full MITM
protection. With Simple Pairing the link key generation is an expensive
operation (compared to Bluetooth 2.0 and before) and doing this twice
during a connection setup causes a noticeable delay when establishing
a new connection. This should be avoided to not regress from the expected
Bluetooth 2.0 connection times. The authentication requirements are known
up-front and so enforce them.
To fulfill these requirements the hci_connect() function has been extended
with an authentication requirement parameter that will be stored inside
the connection information and can be retrieved by userspace at any
time. This allows the correct IO capabilities exchange and results in
the expected behavior.

This patch provides a function to purge all timewait sockets related
to a network namespace. The timewait sockets life cycle is not tied with
the network namespace, that means the timewait sockets stay alive while
the network namespace dies. The timewait sockets are for avoiding to
receive a duplicate packet from the network, if the network namespace is
freed, the network stack is removed, so no chance to receive any packets
from the outside world. Furthermore, having a pending destruction timer
on these sockets with a network namespace freed is not safe and will lead
to an oops if the timer callback which try to access data belonging to
the namespace like for example in:
inet_twdr_do_twkill_work
-> NET_INC_STATS_BH(twsk_net(tw), LINUX_MIB_TIMEWAITED);
Purging the timewait sockets at the network namespace destruction will:
1) speed up memory freeing for the namespace
2) fix kernel panic on asynchronous timewait destruction

Non real IOMMU implemenations (which doesn't do virtual mappings,
e.g. swiotlb, pci-nommu, etc) need to use proper gfp flags and
dma_mask to allocate pages in their own dma_alloc_coherent()
(allocated page need to be suitable for device's coherent_dma_mask).
This patch makes dma_alloc_coherent do this job so that IOMMUs don't
need to take care of it any more.

What I realized recently is that calling rebuild_sched_domains() in
arch_reinit_sched_domains() by itself is not enough when cpusets are enabled.
partition_sched_domains() code is trying to avoid unnecessary domain rebuilds
and will not actually rebuild anything if new domain masks match the old ones.
What this means is that doing
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings
on a system with cpusets enabled will not take affect untill something changes
in the cpuset setup (ie new sets created or deleted).
This patch fixes restore correct behaviour where domains must be rebuilt in
order to enable MC powersaving flags.
Test on quad-core Core2 box with both CONFIG_CPUSETS and !CONFIG_CPUSETS.
Also tested on dual-core Core2 laptop. Lockdep is happy and things are working
as expected.

The long noops ("NOPL") are supposed to be detected by family >= 6.
Unfortunately, several non-Intel x86 implementations, both hardware
and software, don't obey this dictum. Instead, probe for NOPL
directly by executing a NOPL instruction and see if we get #UD.

I found we can no longer set limit to 0 with 2.6.27-rcX:
# mount -t cgroup -omemory xxx /mnt
# mkdir /mnt/0
# echo 0 > /mnt/0/memory.limit_in_bytes
bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
It turned out 'limit' can't be set to 'usage', which is wrong IMO.

trap_init issues flush_icache_range(), which uses ipi functions to
get icache flushing done on all cpus. But this is done before interrupts
are enabled and caused WARN_ON messages. This changeset introduces
a new local_flush_icache_range() and uses it before interrupts (and
additional CPUs) are enabled to avoid this problem.

Some BIOSes (the Intel DG33BU, for example) wrongly claim to have DMAR
when they don't. Avoid the resulting crashes when it doesn't work as
expected.
I'd still be grateful if someone could test it on a DG33BU with the old
BIOS though, since I've killed mine. I tested the DMI version, but not
this one.

Spencer reported a problem where utime and stime were going negative despite
the fixes in commit b27f03d4bdc145a09fb7b0c0e004b29f1ee555fa. The suspected
reason for the problem is that signal_struct maintains it's own utime and
stime (of exited tasks), these are not updated using the new task_utime()
routine, hence sig->utime can go backwards and cause the same problem
to occur (sig->utime, adds tsk->utime and not task_utime()). This patch
fixes the problem
TODO: using max(task->prev_utime, derived utime) works for now, but a more
generic solution is to implement cputime_max() and use the cputime_gt()
function for comparison.

There is a ordering related problem with clockevents code, due to which
clockevents_register_device() called after tickless/highres switch
will not work. The new clockevent ends up with clockevents_handle_noop as
event handler, resulting in no timer activity.
The problematic path seems to be
* old device already has hrtimer_interrupt as the event_handler
* new clockevent device registers with a higher rating
* tick_check_new_device() is called
* clockevents_exchange_device() gets called
* old->event_handler is set to clockevents_handle_noop
* tick_setup_device() is called for the new device
* which sets new->event_handler using the old->event_handler which is noop.
Change the ordering so that new device inherits the proper handler.
This does not have any issue in normal case as most likely all the clockevent
devices are setup before the highres switch. But, can potentially be affecting
some corner case where HPET force detect happens after the highres switch.
This was a problem with HPET in MSI mode code that we have been experimenting
with.
