a8eaeff79e USB: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computers
commit 151b612847 upstream.

This patch (as1545) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers:
The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the
ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers.  Users have been forced
to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep.

After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't
like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3
power state.  Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing
we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3
during system sleep.

The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present,
and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set.
Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend.
However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote
wakeup requests while the system is asleep.  Hence USB wakeup is not
functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state
of affairs.

This fixes Bugzilla #42728.

a674bcab90 KVM: unmap pages from the iommu when slots are removed
commit 32f6daad46 upstream.

We've been adding new mappings, but not destroying old mappings.
This can lead to a page leak as pages are pinned using
get_user_pages, but only unpinned with put_page if they still
exist in the memslots list on vm shutdown.  A memslot that is
destroyed while an iommu domain is enabled for the guest will
therefore result in an elevated page reference count that is
never cleared.

Additionally, without this fix, the iommu is only programmed
with the first translation for a gpa.  This can result in
peer-to-peer errors if a mapping is destroyed and replaced by a
new mapping at the same gpa as the iommu will still be pointing
to the original, pinned memory address.

9239fabf84 Fix modpost failures in fedora 17
commit e88aa7bbbe upstream.

The symbol table on x86-64 starts to have entries that have names
like:

_GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0___mod_x86cpu_device_table

They are of type STT_FUNCTION and this one had a length of 18.  This
matched the device ID validation logic and it barfed because the
length did not meet the device type's criteria.

--------------------
FATAL: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=18.
Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
--------------------

These are some kind of compiler tool internal stuff being emitted and
not something we want to inspect in modpost's device ID table
validation code.

So skip the symbol if it is not of type STT_OBJECT.

commit badc4f0762 upstream.

There have been reports about not being able to use access-points
on channel 12 and 13 or having connectivity issues when these channels
were part of the selected regulatory domain. Upon switching to these
channels the brcmsmac driver suspends the transmit dma fifos. This
patch resumes them upon handing over the first received beacon to
mac80211.

This patch is to be applied to the stable tree for kernel versions
3.2 and 3.3.

cb30a2fb48 EHCI: fix criterion for resuming the root hub
commit dc75ce9d92 upstream.

This patch (as1542) changes the criterion ehci-hcd uses to tell when
it needs to resume the controller's root hub.  A resume is needed when
a port status change is detected, obviously, but only if the root hub
is currently suspended.

Right now the driver tests whether the root hub is running, and that
is not the correct test.  In particular, if the controller has died
then the root hub should not be restarted.  In addition, some buggy
hardware occasionally requires the root hub to be running and
sending out SOF packets even while it is nominally supposed to be
suspended.

In the end, the test needs to be changed.  Rather than checking whether
the root hub is currently running, the driver will now check whether
the root hub is currently suspended.  This will yield the correct
behavior in all cases.

can certainly ensure the interface is running.

Not doing so can cause calls through mac80211 into

8c9def922a drm/i915: handle input/output sdvo timings separately in mode_set
commit 6651819b4b upstream.

We seem to have a decent confusion between the output timings and the
input timings of the sdvo encoder. If I understand the code correctly,
we use the original mode unchanged for the output timings, safe for
the lvds case. And we should use the adjusted mode for input timings.

Clarify the situation by adding an explicit output_dtd to the sdvo
mode_set function and streamline the code-flow by moving the input and
output mode setting in the sdvo encode together.

Furthermore testing showed that the sdvo input timing needs the
unadjusted dotclock, the sdvo chip will automatically compute the
required pixel multiplier to get a dotclock above 100 MHz.

Fix this up when converting a drm mode to an sdvo dtd.

This regression was introduced in

#	      * Otherwise, the output timing is equal to the input timing.

Due to questions raised in review, below a more elaborate analysis of
the bug at hand:

Sdvo seems to have two timings, one is the output timing which will be
sent over whatever is connected on the other side of the sdvo chip (panel,
hdmi screen, tv), the other is the input timing which will be generated by
the gmch pipe. It looks like sdvo is expected to scale between the two.

To make things slightly more complicated, we have a bunch of special
cases:
- For lvds panel we always use a fixed output timing, namely
  intel_sdvo->sdvo_lvds_fixed_mode, hence that special case.
- Sdvo has an interface to generate a preferred input timing for a given
  output timing. This is the confusing thing that I've tried to clear up
  with the follow-on patches.
- A special requirement is that the input pixel clock needs to be between
  100MHz and 200MHz (likely to keep it within the electromechanical design
  range of PCIe), 270MHz on later gen4+. Lower pixel clocks are
  doubled/quadrupled.

The thing this patch tries to fix is that the pipe needs to be
explicitly instructed to double/quadruple the pixels and needs the
correspondingly higher pixel clock, whereas the sdvo adaptor seems to
do that itself and needs the unadjusted pixel clock. For the sdvo
encode side we already set the pixel mutliplier with a different
command (0x21).

This patch tries to fix this mess by:
- Keeping the output mode timing in the unadjusted plain mode, safe
  for the lvds case.
- Storing the input timing in the adjusted_mode with the adjusted
  pixel clock. This way we don't need to frob around with the core
  crtc mode set code.
- Fixing up the pixelclock when constructing the sdvo dtd timing
  struct. This is why the first hunk of the patch is an integral part
  of the series.
- Dropping the is_tv special case because input_dtd is equivalent to
  adjusted_mode after these changes. Follow-up patches clear this up
  further (by simply ripping out intel_sdvo->input_dtd because it's
  not needed).

7d841e23fe hwmon: fam15h_power: fix bogus values with current BIOSes
commit 00250ec909 upstream.

Newer BKDG[1] versions recommend a different initialization value for
the running average range register in the northbridge. This improves
the power reading by avoiding counter saturations resulting in bogus
values for anything below about 80% of TDP power consumption.
Updated BIOSes will have this new value set up from the beginning,
but meanwhile we correct this value ourselves.
This needs to be done on all northbridges, even on those where the
driver itself does not register at.

This fixes the driver on all current machines to provide proper
values for idle load.

This loop on EBCISR register was designed to clear IRQ sources before enabling
a DMA channel. This register is clear-on-read so a race condition can appear if
another channel is already active and has just finished its transfer.
Removing this read on EBCISR is fixing the issue as there is no case where an IRQ
could be pending: we already make sure that this register is drained at probe()
time and during resume.

aa4a6ac6d1 xen: correctly check for pending events when restoring irq flags
commit 7eb7ce4d2e upstream.

In xen_restore_fl_direct(), xen_force_evtchn_callback() was being
called even if no events were pending.  This resulted in (depending on
workload) about a 100 times as many xen_version hypercalls as
necessary.

Fix this by correcting the sense of the conditional jump.

This seems to give a significant performance benefit for some
workloads.

There is some subtle tricksy "..since the check here is trying to
check both pending and masked in a single cmpw, but I think this is
correct. It will call check_events now only when the combined
mask+pending word is 0x0001 (aka unmasked, pending)." (Ian)

d25895e8f1 Revert "autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64"
commit fcbf94b9de upstream.

This reverts commit a32744d4ab.

While that commit was technically the right thing to do, and made the
x86-64 compat mode work identically to native 32-bit mode (and thus
fixing the problem with a 32-bit systemd install on a 64-bit kernel), it
turns out that the automount binaries had workarounds for this compat
problem.

Now, the workarounds are disgusting: doing an "uname()" to find out the
architecture of the kernel, and then comparing it for the 64-bit cases
and fixing up the size of the read() in automount for those.  And they
were confused: it's not actually a generic 64-bit issue at all, it's
very much tied to just x86-64, which has different alignment for an
'u64' in 64-bit mode than in 32-bit mode.

But the end result is that fixing the compat layer actually breaks the
case of a 32-bit automount on a x86-64 kernel.

There are various approaches to fix this (including just doing a
"strcmp()" on current->comm and comparing it to "automount"), but I
think that I will do the one that teaches pipes about a special "packet
mode", which will allow user space to not have to care too deeply about
the padding at the end of the autofs packet.

That change will make the compat workaround unnecessary, so let's revert
it first, and get automount working again in compat mode.  The
packetized pipes will then fix autofs for systemd.

322fd620a8 x86, apic: APIC code touches invalid MSR on P5 class machines
commit cbf2829b61 upstream.

Current APIC code assumes MSR_IA32_APICBASE is present for all systems.
Pentium Classic P5 and friends didn't have this MSR. MSR_IA32_APICBASE
was introduced as an architectural MSR by Intel @ P6.

Code paths that can touch this MSR invalidly are when vendor == Intel &&
cpu-family == 5 and APIC bit is set in CPUID - or when you simply pass
lapic on the kernel command line, on a P5.

The below patch stops Linux incorrectly interfering with the
MSR_IA32_APICBASE for P5 class machines. Other code paths exist that
touch the MSR - however those paths are not currently reachable for a

cb2fee3223 nfs: Enclose hostname in brackets when needed in nfs_do_root_mount
commit 98a2139f4f upstream.

When hostname contains colon (e.g. when it is an IPv6 address) it needs
to be enclosed in brackets to make parsing of NFS device string possible.
Fix nfs_do_root_mount() to enclose hostname properly when needed. NFS code
actually does not need this as it does not parse the string passed by
nfs_do_root_mount() but the device string is exposed to userspace in
/proc/mounts.

ad24d0be9d tcp: fix TCP_MAXSEG for established IPv6 passive sockets
[ Upstream commit d135c522f1 ]

Commit f5fff5d forgot to fix TCP_MAXSEG behavior IPv6 sockets, so IPv6
TCP server sockets that used TCP_MAXSEG would find that the advmss of
child sockets would be incorrect. This commit mirrors the advmss logic
from tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock. Eventually this
logic should probably be shared between IPv4 and IPv6, but this at
least fixes this issue.

28b78eb401 net ax25: Reorder ax25_exit to remove races.
[ Upstream commit 3adadc08cc ]

While reviewing the sysctl code in ax25 I spotted races in ax25_exit
where it is possible to receive notifications and packets after already
freeing up some of the data structures needed to process those
notifications and updates.

Call unregister_netdevice_notifier early so that the rest of the cleanup
code does not need to deal with network devices.  This takes advantage
of my recent enhancement to unregister_netdevice_notifier to send
unregister notifications of all network devices that are current
registered.

Move the unregistration for packet types, socket types and protocol
types before we cleanup any of the ax25 data structures to remove the
possibilities of other races.

11e8e6af6e net_sched: gred: Fix oops in gred_dump() in WRED mode
[ Upstream commit 244b65dbfe ]

A parameter set exists for WRED mode, called wred_set, to hold the same
values for qavg and qidlestart across all VQs. The WRED mode values had
been previously held in the VQ for the default DP. After these values
were moved to wred_set, the VQ for the default DP was no longer created
automatically (so that it could be omitted on purpose, to have packets
in the default DP enqueued directly to the device without using RED).

However, gred_dump() was overlooked during that change; in WRED mode it
still reads qavg/qidlestart from the VQ for the default DP, which might
not even exist. As a result, this command sequence will cause an oops:

tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle $HANDLE parent $PARENT gred setup \
    DPs 3 default 2 grio
tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 0 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS
tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 1 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS

This fixes gred_dump() in WRED mode to use the values held in wred_set.

33e5a8b746 net/ethernet: ks8851_mll fix rx frame buffer overflow
[ Upstream commit 8a9a0ea603 ]

At the beginning of ks_rcv(), a for loop retrieves the
header information relevant to all the frames stored
in the mac's internal buffers. The number of pending
frames is stored as an 8 bits field in KS_RXFCTR.
If interrupts are disabled long enough to allow for more than
32 frames to accumulate in the MAC's internal buffers, a buffer
overflow occurs.
This patch fixes the problem by making the
driver's frame_head_info buffer big enough.
Well actually, since the chip appears to have 12K of
internal rx buffers and the shortest ethernet frame should
be 64 bytes long, maybe the limit could be set to
12*1024/64 = 192 frames, but 255 should be safer.

4a1abcbd24 tcp: fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() use of an unscaled RTT sample
[ Upstream commit 18a223e0b9 ]

Fix a code path in tcp_rcv_rtt_update() that was comparing scaled and
unscaled RTT samples.

The intent in the code was to only use the 'm' measurement if it was a
new minimum.  However, since 'm' had not yet been shifted left 3 bits
but 'new_sample' had, this comparison would nearly always succeed,
leading us to erroneously set our receive-side RTT estimate to the 'm'
sample when that sample could be nearly 8x too high to use.

The overall effect is to often cause the receive-side RTT estimate to
be significantly too large (up to 40% too large for brief periods in
my tests).

4baf6fcf14 bridge: Do not send queries on multicast group leaves
[ Upstream commit 996304bbea ]

As it stands the bridge IGMP snooping system will respond to
group leave messages with queries for remaining membership.
This is both unnecessary and undesirable.  First of all any
multicast routers present should be doing this rather than us.
What's more the queries that we send may end up upsetting other
multicast snooping swithces in the system that are buggy.

In fact, we can simply remove the code that send these queries
because the existing membership expiry mechanism doesn't rely
on them anyway.

So this patch simply removes all code associated with group
queries in response to group leave messages.

3109ea06da sctp: Allow struct sctp_event_subscribe to grow without breaking binaries
[ Upstream commit acdd598536 ]

getsockopt(..., SCTP_EVENTS, ...) performs a length check and returns
an error if the user provides less bytes than the size of struct
sctp_event_subscribe.

Struct sctp_event_subscribe needs to be extended by an u8 for every
new event or notification type that is added.

This obviously makes getsockopt fail for binaries that are compiled
against an older versions of <net/sctp/user.h> which do not contain
all event types.

This patch changes getsockopt behaviour to no longer return an error
if not enough bytes are being provided by the user. Instead, it
returns as much of sctp_event_subscribe as fits into the provided buffer.

This leads to the new behavior that users see what they have been aware
of at compile time.

The setsockopt(..., SCTP_EVENTS, ...) API is already behaving like this.

vmsplice()/splice(pipe, socket) call do_tcp_sendpages() one page at a

The call to tcp_push() at the end of do_tcp_sendpages() forces an
immediate xmit when pipe is not already filled, and tso_fragment() try
to split these skb to MSS multiples.

4096 bytes are usually split in a skb with 2 MSS, and a remaining
sub-mss skb (assuming MTU=1500)

This makes slow start suboptimal because many small frames are sent to
qdisc/driver layers instead of big ones (constrained by cwnd and packets
in flight of course)

In fact, applications using sendmsg() (adding an additional memory copy)
instead of vmsplice()/splice()/sendfile() are a bit faster because of
this anomaly, especially if serving small files in environments with
large initial [c]wnd.

Call tcp_push() only if MSG_MORE is not set in the flags parameter.

This bit is automatically provided by splice() internals but for the
last page, or on all pages if user specified SPLICE_F_MORE splice()
flag.

In some workloads, this can reduce number of sent logical packets by an
order of magnitude, making zero-copy TCP actually faster than
one-copy :)

d2491ed1e1 ppp: Don't stop and restart queue on every TX packet
[ This combines upstream commit
  e675f0cc9a and follow-on bug fix
  commit 9a5d2bd99e ]

For every transmitted packet, ppp_start_xmit() will stop the netdev
queue and then, if appropriate, restart it. This causes the TX softirq
to run, entirely gratuitously.

This is "only" a waste of CPU time in the normal case, but it's actively
harmful when the PPP device is a TEQL slave — the wakeup will cause the
offending device to receive the next TX packet from the TEQL queue, when
it *should* have gone to the next slave in the list. We end up seeing
large bursts of packets on just *one* slave device, rather than using
the full available bandwidth over all slaves.

This patch fixes the problem by *not* unconditionally stopping the queue
in ppp_start_xmit(). It adds a return value from ppp_xmit_process()
which indicates whether the queue should be stopped or not.

It *doesn't* remove the call to netif_wake_queue() from
ppp_xmit_process(), because other code paths (especially from
ppp_output_wakeup()) need it there and it's messy to push it out to the
other callers to do it based on the return value. So we leave it in
place — it's a no-op in the case where the queue wasn't stopped, so it's
harmless in the TX path.
