Driver core: treat unregistered bus_types as having no devices

2014-02-10T21:11:06+00:00

commit 4fa3e78be7e985ca814ce2aa0c09cbee404efcf7 upstream.

A bus_type has a list of devices (klist_devices), but the list and the
subsys_private structure that contains it are not initialized until the
bus_type is registered with bus_register().

The panic/reboot path has fixups that look up devices in pci_bus_type.  If
we panic before registering pci_bus_type, the bus_type exists but the list
does not, so mach_reboot_fixups() trips over a null pointer and panics
again:

    mach_reboot_fixups
      pci_get_device
        ..
          bus_find_device(&pci_bus_type, ...)
            bus->p is NULL

Joonsoo reported a problem when panicking before PCI was initialized.
I think this patch should be sufficient to replace the patch he posted
here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/28/75 ("[PATCH] x86, reboot: skip
reboot_fixups in early boot phase")

genirq: Add IRQF_RESUME_EARLY and resume such IRQs earlier

2012-05-17T15:20:54+00:00

commit 9bab0b7fbaceec47d32db51cd9e59c82fb071f5a upstream

This adds a mechanism to resume selected IRQs during syscore_resume
instead of dpm_resume_noirq.

Under Xen we need to resume IRQs associated with IPIs early enough
that the resched IPI is unmasked and we can therefore schedule
ourselves out of the stop_machine where the suspend/resume takes
place.

This issue was introduced by 676dc3cf5bc3 "xen: Use IRQF_FORCE_RESUME".

Back ported to 2.6.32 (which lacks syscore support) by calling the relavant
resume function directly from sysdev_resume).

v2: Fixed non-x86 build errors.

firmware_class: fix memory leak - free allocated pages

2010-08-02T17:30:14+00:00

commit dd336c554d8926c3348a2d5f2a5ef5597f6d1a06 upstream.

fix memory leak introduced by the patch 6e03a201bbe:
firmware: speed up request_firmware()

1. vfree won't release pages there were allocated explicitly and mapped
using vmap. The memory has to be vunmap-ed and the pages needs
to be freed explicitly

2. page array is moved into the 'struct
firmware' so that we can free it from release_firmware()
and not only in fw_dev_release()

The fix doesn't break the firmware load speed.

drivers/base/cpu.c: fix the output from /sys/devices/system/cpu/offline

commit cdc6e3d3968052cebb2f2ddcd742bff29fbd1a90 upstream.

Without CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK, simply inverting cpu_online_mask leads
to CPUs beyond nr_cpu_ids to be displayed twice and CPUs not even
possible to be displayed as offline.

Revert "memory-hotplug: add 0x prefix to HEX block_size_bytes"

2010-04-09T17:05:33+00:00

This reverts commit ba168fc37dea145deeb8fa9e7e71c748d2e00d74.

It changes user-visible sysfs interfaces, and breaks some existing user
space applications which apparently rely on the fact that the output
does not contain the "0x" prefix.

nodemask: include slab.h from drivers/base/node.c

2010-04-06T21:41:41+00:00

NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE are mapped to kmalloc/free if NODES_SHIFT > 8.
Among its several users, drivers/base/node.c wasn't including slab.h
leading to build failure if NODES_SHIFT > 8.  Include slab.h from
drivers/base/node.c.

This isn't an ideal solution but including slab.h directly from
nodemask.h is not an option because nodemask.h gets included
everywhere.  For now, make it work by including slab.h from its users.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32+00:00

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

[SCSI] attirbute_container: Initialize sysfs attributes with sysfs_attr_init

2010-03-27T19:15:24+00:00

All of the SCSI transport classes are suddenly spitting lockdep
warnings.  According to Eric Biderman this is because lockdep needs
static initialisers and the attribute container way of doing things
end up with dynamic sysfs attributes.  Fix this by calling
sysfs_attr_init which sets the lockdep key correctly.

power: support _noirq actions on device types and classes

2010-03-24T10:00:02+00:00

The new-style dev_pm_ops provide callbacks for both IRQs enabled
and disabled. However, the _noirq variants were only called for
buses registered with a device, not for classes and types.

In order to properly use dev_pm_ops in class pcmcia_socket_class,
support _noirq actions also on classes and types.
