This is a resubmit backport of commit 92c6b8d16a
to kernel version 2.6.32. The gentoo bug report can be found at
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=301091. Thanks to Matt Carlson for his
assistance and working me to fix a regression caused by the initial patch. The
original description is as follows:
The 5906 has trouble with fragments that are less than 8 bytes in size. This
patch works around the problem by pivoting the 5906's transmit routine to
tg3_start_xmit_dma_bug() and introducing a new SHORT_DMA_BUG flag that enables
code to detect and react to the problematic condition.

commit 98e12b5a6e upstream.
Commit 2552fc2 changed the way the decompressor decides if it is safe
to decompress the kernel directly to its final location. Unfortunately,
it took the top of the compressed data as being the stack pointer,
which it is for ROM=n cases. However, for ROM=y, the stack pointer
is not relevant, and results in the wrong answer.
Fix this by explicitly storing the end of the biggybacked data in the
decompressor, and use that to calculate the compressed image size.

The ARM kernel decompressor wants to be able to relocate r/w data
independently from the rest of the image, and we do this by ensuring that
r/w data has global visibility. Define STATIC_RW_DATA to be empty to

commit 9b3a6549b2 upstream.
The few lines below the kfree of hdr_buf may go to the label err_free
which will also free hdr_buf. The most straightforward solution seems to
be to just move the kfree of hdr_buf after these gotos.

commit 1431559200 upstream.
Distros generally (I looked at Debian, RHEL5 and SLES11) seem to
enable CONFIG_HIGHPTE for any x86 configuration which has highmem
enabled. This means that the overhead applies even to machines which
have a fairly modest amount of high memory and which therefore do not
really benefit from allocating PTEs in high memory but still pay the
price of the additional mapping operations.
Running kernbench on a 4G box I found that with CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but
no actual highptes being allocated there was a reduction in system
time used from 59.737s to 55.9s.
With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y and highmem PTEs being allocated:
Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation):
Elapsed Time 175.396 (0.238914)
User Time 515.983 (5.85019)
System Time 59.737 (1.26727)
Percent CPU 263.8 (71.6796)
Context Switches 39989.7 (4672.64)
Sleeps 42617.7 (246.307)
With CONFIG_HIGHPTE=y but with no highmem PTEs being allocated:
Average Optimal load -j 4 Run (std deviation):
Elapsed Time 174.278 (0.831968)
User Time 515.659 (6.07012)
System Time 55.9 (1.07799)
Percent CPU 263.8 (71.266)
Context Switches 39929.6 (4485.13)
Sleeps 42583.7 (373.039)
This patch allows the user to control the allocation of PTEs in
highmem from the command line ("userpte=nohigh") but retains the
status-quo as the default.
It is possible that some simple heuristic could be developed which
allows auto-tuning of this option however I don't have a sufficiently
large machine available to me to perform any particularly meaningful
experiments. We could probably handwave up an argument for a threshold
at 16G of total RAM.
Assuming 768M of lowmem we have 196608 potential lowmem PTE
pages. Each page can map 2M of RAM in a PAE-enabled configuration,
meaning a maximum of 384G of RAM could potentially be mapped using
lowmem PTEs.
Even allowing generous factor of 10 to account for other required
lowmem allocations, generous slop to account for page sharing (which
reduces the total amount of RAM mappable by a given number of PT
pages) and other innacuracies in the estimations it would seem that
even a 32G machine would not have a particularly pressing need for
highmem PTEs. I think 32G could be considered to be at the upper bound
of what might be sensible on a 32 bit machine (although I think in
practice 64G is still supported).
It's seems questionable if HIGHPTE is even a win for any amount of RAM
you would sensibly run a 32 bit kernel on rather than going 64 bit.

Fix a SMT scheduler performance regression that is leading to a scenario
where SMT threads in one core are completely idle while both the SMT threads

sched: Try to deal with low capacity

On a SMT system, power of the HT logical cpu will be 589 and
the scheduler load imbalance (for scenarios like the one mentioned above)
can be approximately 1024 (SCHED_LOAD_SCALE). The above change of scaling
the weighted load with the power will result in "wl > imbalance" and
ultimately resulting in find_busiest_queue() return NULL, causing
load_balance() to think that the load is well balanced. But infact
one of the tasks can be moved to the idle core for optimal performance.
We don't need to use the weighted load (wl) scaled by the cpu power to
compare with imabalance. In that condition, we already know there is only a
single task "rq->nr_running == 1" and the comparison between imbalance,
wl is to make sure that we select the correct priority thread which matches
imbalance. So we really need to compare the imabalnce with the original
weighted load of the cpu and not the scaled load.
But in other conditions where we want the most hammered(busiest) cpu, we can
use scaled load to ensure that we consider the cpu power in addition to the
actual load on that cpu, so that we can move the load away from the
guy that is getting most hammered with respect to the actual capacity,
as compared with the rest of the cpu's in that busiest group.
Fix it.

commit a97f925a32 upstream.
Free the dm_io structure before calling bio_endio() instead of after it,
to ensure that the io_pool containing it is not referenced after it is
freed.
This partially fixes a problem described here
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2010-February/msg00109.html
thread 1:
bio_endio(bio, io_error);
/* scheduling happens */
thread 2:
close the device
remove the device
thread 1:
free_io(md, io);
Thread 2, when removing the device, sees non-empty md->io_pool (because the
io hasn't been freed by thread 1 yet) and may crash with BUG in mempool_free.
Thread 1 may also crash, when freeing into a nonexisting mempool.
To fix this we must make sure that bio_endio() is the last call and
the md structure is not accessed afterwards.
There is another bio_endio in process_barrier, but it is called from the thread
and the thread is destroyed prior to freeing the mempools, so this call is
not affected by the bug.
A similar bug exists with module unloads - the module may be unloaded
immediately after bio_endio - but that is more difficult to fix.

So when this list is cleaned up in svc_delete_xprt, we mustn't
put the reference.
Also, replace the 'for' with a 'while' which is arguably
simpler and more likely to compile efficiently.

commit f7410ced7f upstream.
USB: Move hcd free_dev call into usb_disconnect
I found a way to oops the kernel:
1. Open a USB device through devio.
2. Remove the hcd module in the host kernel.
3. Close the devio file descriptor.
The problem is that closing the file descriptor does usb_release_dev
as it is the last reference. usb_release_dev then tries to invoke
the hcd free_dev function (or rather dereferencing the hcd driver
struct). This causes an oops as the hcd driver has already been
unloaded so the struct is gone.
This patch tries to fix this by bringing the free_dev call earlier
and into usb_disconnect. I have verified that repeating the
above steps no longer crashes with this patch applied.

This occurs because an interrupt scans uhci->skelqh, which is
being freed. We do the right thing: disable the interrupts in the
device, and do not do any processing if the interrupt is shared
with other source, but it's possible that another CPU gets
delayed somewhere (e.g. loops) until we started freeing.
The agreed-upon solution is to wait for interrupts to play out
before proceeding. No other bareers are neceesary.
A backport of this patch was tested on a 2.6.18 based kernel.
Testing of 2.6.32-based kernels is under way, but it takes us
forever (months) to turn this around. So I think it's a good
patch and we should keep it.

As you can see igb and ixgbe are both alternating on create_irq_nr()
via pci_enable_msix() in their probe function.
ixgbe: While looping through irq_desc_ptrs[] via create_irq_nr() ixgbe
choses irq_desc_ptrs[102] and exits the loop, drops vector_lock and
calls dynamic_irq_init. Then it sets irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data =
NULL via dynamic_irq_init().
igb: Grabs the vector_lock now and starts looping over irq_desc_ptrs[]
via create_irq_nr(). It gets to irq_desc_ptrs[102] and does this:
cfg_new = irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data;
if (cfg_new->vector != 0)
continue;
This hits the NULL deref.
Another possible race exists via pci_disable_msix() in a driver or in
the number of error paths that call free_msi_irqs():
destroy_irq()
dynamic_irq_cleanup() which sets desc->chip_data = NULL
...race window...
desc->chip_data = cfg;
Remove the save and restore code for cfg in create_irq_nr() and
destroy_irq() and take the desc->lock when checking the irq_cfg.

commit 817a824b75 upstream.
There's a path in the pagefault code where the kernel deliberately
breaks its own locking rules by kmapping a high pte page without
holding the pagetable lock (in at least page_check_address). This
breaks Xen's ability to track the pinned/unpinned state of the
page. There does not appear to be a viable workaround for this
behaviour so simply disable HIGHPTE for all Xen guests.

commit 318f6b228b upstream.
Do not set current->mm->mmap to NULL in 32-bit emulation on 64-bit
load_aout_binary after flush_old_exec as it would destroy already
set brpm mapping with arguments.
Introduced by b6a2fea393
mm: variable length argument support
where the argument mapping in bprm was added.
[ hpa: this is a regression from 2.6.22... time to kill a.out? ]

In ocfs2_direct_IO_get_blocks, we only need to bug out
in case of we are going to write a recounted extent rec.
What a silly bug introduced by me!

commit 08fedfc903 upstream.
Studying the DSDTs of various thinkpads, it looks like bit 3 of the
argument to SBDC and SWAN is not "set radio to last state on resume".
Rather, it seems to be "if this bit is set, enable radio on resume,
otherwise disable it on resume".
So, the proper way to prepare the radios for S3 suspend is: disable
radio and clear bit 3 on the SBDC/SWAN call to to resume with radio
disabled, and enable radio and set bit 3 on the SBDC/SWAN call to
resume with the radio enabled.
Also, for persistent devices, the rfkill core does not restore state,
so we really need to get the firmware to do the right thing.
We don't sync the radio state on suspend, instead we trust the BIOS to
not do anything weird if we never touched the radio state since boot.
Time will tell if that's a wise way of doing things...

commit 7f0cf712a7 upstream.
Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo reports this:
Brightness notification does not work until the user writes to
hotkey_mask attribute. That's because the polling thread will only run
if hotkey_user_mask is set and someone is reading the input device or
if hotkey_driver_mask is set. In this second case, this condition is
not tested after the mask is changed, because the brightness and
volume drivers are started after the hotkey drivers.
Fix tpacpi_hotkey_driver_mask_set() to call hotkey_poll_setup(), so
that the poller kthread will be started when needed.

commit bf8b29c8f7 upstream.
Event 0x3006 is used to help power management of the ODD in the
UltraBay. The EC generates this event when the ODD eject button is
pressed (even if the bay is powered down).
Normally, Linux doesn't need this as we keep the SATA link powered
up (which wastes power). The EC powers up the bay by itself when the
ODD eject button is pressed, and the SATA PHY reports the hotplug.
However, we could also power that SATA link down (and for that matter,
also power down the Ultrabay) if the ODD is left idle for a while with
no disk inside, and use event 0x3006 to know when we need that SATA link
powered back up.
For now, just stop asking for more information when event 0x3006 is
seen, there is no point in pestering users about it anymore.
