2010-09-01ARM: 6343/1: wire up fanotify and prlimit64 syscalls on ARMMikael Pettersson
The 2.6.36-rc kernel added three new system calls: fanotify_init, fanotify_mark, and prlimit64. This patch wires them up on ARM. The only non-trivial issue here is the u64 argument to sys_fanotify_mark(), but it is the 3rd argument and thus passed in r2/r3 in both kernel and user space, so it causes no problems. Tested with a 2.6.36-rc2 EABI kernel on an ixp4xx machine.

This is purely a cosmetic change to the ARM perf backend because the current comments about the relationship between NMIs, interrupt context and perf_event_do_pending are misleading.

2010-09-01lockup_detector: Sync touch_*_watchdog back to old semanticsDon Zickus
During my rewrite, the semantics of touch_nmi_watchdog and touch_softlockup_watchdog changed enough to break some drivers (mostly over preemptable regions). These are cases where long delays on one CPU (due to print_delay for example) can cause long delays on other CPUs - so we must 'touch' the nmi_watchdog flag of those other CPUs as well. This change brings those touch_*_watchdog() functions back in line with to how they used to work.

In f761622e59433130bc33ad086ce219feee9eb961 we changed early_setup_secondary so it's called using the proper kernel stack rather than the emergency one. Unfortunately, this stack pointer can't be used when translation is off on PHYP as this stack pointer might be outside the RMO. This results in the following on all non zero cpus: cpu 0x1: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c00000001639fd10] pc: 000000000001c50c lr: 000000000000821c sp: c00000001639ff90 msr: 8000000000001000 dar: c00000001639ffa0 dsisr: 42000000 current = 0xc000000016393540 paca = 0xc000000006e00200 pid = 0, comm = swapper The original patch was only tested on bare metal system, so it never caught this problem.

2010-08-31powerpc/perf_event: Reduce latency of calling perf_event_do_pendingPaul Mackerras
Commit 0fe1ac48 ("powerpc/perf_event: Fix oops due to perf_event_do_pending call") moved the call to perf_event_do_pending in timer_interrupt() down so that it was after the irq_enter() call. Unfortunately this moved it after the code that checks whether it is time for the next decrementer clock event. The result is that the call to perf_event_do_pending() won't happen until the next decrementer clock event is due. This was pointed out by Milton Miller. This fixes it by moving the check for whether it's time for the next decrementer clock event down to the point where we're about to call the event handler, after we've called perf_event_do_pending. This has the side effect that on old pre-Core99 Powermacs where we use the ppc_n_lost_interrupts mechanism to replay interrupts, a replayed interrupt will incur a little more latency since it will now do the code from the irq_enter down to the irq_exit, that it used to skip. However, these machines are now old and rare enough that this doesn't matter. To make it clear that ppc_n_lost_interrupts is only used on Powermacs, and to speed up the code slightly on non-Powermac ppc32 machines, the code that tests ppc_n_lost_interrupts is now conditional on CONFIG_PMAC as well as CONFIG_PPC32.

2010-08-30wireless extensions: fix kernel heap content leakJohannes Berg
Wireless extensions have an unfortunate, undocumented requirement which requires drivers to always fill iwp->length when returning a successful status. When a driver doesn't do this, it leads to a kernel heap content leak when userspace offers a larger buffer than would have been necessary. Arguably, this is a driver bug, as it should, if it returns 0, fill iwp->length, even if it separately indicated that the buffer contents was not valid. However, we can also at least avoid the memory content leak if the driver doesn't do this by setting the iwp length to max_tokens, which then reflects how big the buffer is that the driver may fill, regardless of how big the userspace buffer is. To illustrate the point, this patch also fixes a corresponding cfg80211 bug (since this requirement isn't documented nor was ever pointed out by anyone during code review, I don't trust all drivers nor all cfg80211 handlers to implement it correctly).

2010-08-30mac80211: delete work timerJohannes Berg
The new workqueue changes helped me find this bug that's been lingering since the changes to the work processing in mac80211 -- the work timer is never deleted properly. Do that to avoid having it fire after all data structures have been freed. It can't be re-armed because all it will do, if running, is schedule the work, but that gets flushed later and won't have anything to do since all work items are gone by now (by way of interface removal).

2010-08-30p54: fix tx feedback status flag checkChristian Lamparter
Michael reported that p54* never really entered power save mode, even tough it was enabled. It turned out that upon a power save mode change the firmware will set a special flag onto the last outgoing frame tx status (which in this case is almost always the designated PSM nullfunc frame). This flag confused the driver; It erroneously reported transmission failures to the stack, which then generated the next nullfunc. and so on...

2010-08-30ath5k: check return value of ieee80211_get_tx_rateJohn W. Linville
This avoids a NULL pointer dereference as reported here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=625889 When the WARN condition is hit in ieee80211_get_tx_rate, it will return NULL. So, we need to check the return value and avoid dereferencing it in that case. Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-08-30scatterlist: prevent invalid free when alloc failsJeffrey Carlyle
When alloc fails, free_table is being called. Depending on the number of bytes requested, we determine if we are going to call _get_free_page() or kmalloc(). When alloc fails, our math is wrong (due to sg_size - 1), and the last buffer is wrongfully assumed to have been allocated by kmalloc. Hence, kfree gets called and a panic occurs.

2010-08-30perf_events: Fix time tracking for events with pid != -1 and cpu != -1Stephane Eranian
Per-thread events with a cpu filter, i.e., cpu != -1, were not reporting correct timings when the thread never ran on the monitored cpu. The time enabled was reported as a negative value. This patch fixes the problem by updating tstamp_stopped, tstamp_running in event_sched_out() for events with filters and which are marked as INACTIVE. The function group_sched_out() is modified to systematically call into event_sched_out() to avoid duplicating the timing adjustment code twice. With the patch, I now get: $ task_cpu -i -e unhalted_core_cycles,unhalted_core_cycles noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds CPU0 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU0 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU1 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU1 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU2 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU2 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU3 4,747,990,931 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=1,991,136,594) CPU3 4,747,990,931 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=1,991,136,594) Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@gmail.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: paulus@samba.org Cc: davem@davemloft.net Cc: fweisbec@gmail.com Cc: perfmon2-devel@lists.sf.net Cc: eranian@google.com LKML-Reference: <4c76802d.aae9d80a.115d.70fe@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2010-08-30md: resolve confusion of MD_CHANGE_CLEANNeilBrown
MD_CHANGE_CLEAN is used for two different purposes and this leads to confusion. One of the purposes is largely mirrored by MD_CHANGE_PENDING which is not used for anything else, so have MD_CHANGE_PENDING take over that purpose fully. The two purposes are: 1/ tell md_update_sb that an update is needed and that it is just a clean/dirty transition. 2/ tell user-space that an transition from clean to dirty is pending (something wants to write), and tell te kernel (by clearin the flag) that the transition is OK. The first purpose remains wit MD_CHANGE_CLEAN, the second is moved fully to MD_CHANGE_PENDING. This means that various places which conditionally set or cleared MD_CHANGE_CLEAN no longer need to be conditional. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2010-08-30md: don't clear MD_CHANGE_CLEAN in md_update_sb() for external arraysDan Williams
If this bit is cleared in md_update_sb() the kernel will allow writes to the array if userspace triggers md_allow_write(), e.g. through stripe_cache_size, when mdmon is not active. When mdmon is active the array transitions to active-idle bypassing write-pending, setting up a race for mdmon to set the array clean before a write arrives.
