USB: storage: Add MicroVault Flash Drive to unusual_devs

2013-08-04T07:45:00+00:00

commit e7a6121f4929c17215f0cdca3726f4bf3e4e9529 upstream.

The device report an error capacity when read_capacity_16().
Using read_capacity_10() can get the correct capacity.

virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ processing

2013-08-04T07:43:40+00:00

commit cbdadbbf0c790f79350a8f36029208944c5487d0 upstream

virtio net called virtqueue_enable_cq on RX path after napi_complete, so
with NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear - outside the implicit napi lock.
This violates the requirement to synchronize virtqueue_enable_cq wrt
virtqueue_add_buf.  In particular, used event can move backwards,
causing us to lose interrupts.
In a debug build, this can trigger panic within START_USE.

Jason Wang reports that he can trigger the races artificially,
by adding udelay() in virtqueue_enable_cb() after virtio_mb().

However, we must call napi_complete to clear NAPI_STATE_SCHED before
polling the virtqueue for used buffers, otherwise napi_schedule_prep in
a callback will fail, causing us to lose RX events.

To fix, call virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare with NAPI_STATE_SCHED
set (under napi lock), later call virtqueue_poll with
NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear (outside the lock).

virtio: support unlocked queue poll

2013-08-04T07:43:40+00:00

commit cc229884d3f77ec3b1240e467e0236c3e0647c0c upstream.

This adds a way to check ring empty state after enable_cb outside any
locks. Will be used by virtio_net.

Note: there's room for more optimization: caller is likely to have a
memory barrier already, which means we might be able to get rid of a
barrier here.  Deferring this optimization until we do some
benchmarking.

xen/evtchn: avoid a deadlock when unbinding an event channel

2013-08-04T07:43:40+00:00

commit 179fbd5a45f0d4034cc6fd37b8d367a3b79663c4 upstream.

Unbinding an event channel (either with the ioctl or when the evtchn
device is closed) may deadlock because disable_irq() is called with
port_user_lock held which is also locked by the interrupt handler.

Think of the IOCTL_EVTCHN_UNBIND is being serviced, the routine has
just taken the lock, and an interrupt happens. The evtchn_interrupt
is invoked, tries to take the lock and spins forever.

A quick glance at the code shows that the spinlock is a local IRQ
variant. Unfortunately that does not help as "disable_irq() waits for
the interrupt handler on all CPUs to stop running.  If the irq occurs
on another VCPU, it tries to take port_user_lock and can't because
the unbind ioctl is holding it." (from David). Hence we cannot
depend on the said spinlock to protect us. We could make it a system
wide IRQ disable spinlock but there is a better way.

We can piggyback on the fact that the existence of the spinlock is
to make get_port_user() checks be up-to-date. And we can alter those
checks to not depend on the spin lock (as it's protected by u->bind_mutex
in the ioctl) and can remove the unnecessary locking (this is
IOCTL_EVTCHN_UNBIND) path.

In the interrupt handler we cannot use the mutex, but we do not
need it.

"The unbind disables the irq before making the port user stale, so when
you clear it you are guaranteed that the interrupt handler that might
use that port cannot be running." (from David).

Hence this patch removes the spinlock usage on the teardown path
and piggybacks on disable_irq happening before we muck with the
get_port_user() data. This ensures that the interrupt handler will
never run on stale data.

USB: serial: ftdi_sio: add more RT Systems ftdi devices

2013-08-04T07:43:40+00:00

commit fed1f1ed90bce42ea010e2904cbc04e7b8304940 upstream.

RT Systems makes many usb serial cables based on the ftdi_sio driver for
programming various amateur radios.  This patch is a full listing of
their current product offerings and should allow these cables to all
be recognized.

drm/radeon/atom: initialize more atom interpretor elements to 0

2013-08-04T07:43:39+00:00

commit 42a21826dc54583cdb79cc8477732e911ac9c376 upstream.

The ProcessAuxChannel table on some rv635 boards assumes
the divmul members are initialized to 0 otherwise we get
an invalid fb offset since it has a bad mask set when
setting the fb base.  While here initialize all the
atom interpretor elements to 0.

drm/radeon: fix combios tables on older cards

2013-08-04T07:43:37+00:00

commit cef1d00cd56f600121ad121875655ad410a001b8 upstream.

Noticed that my old Radeon 7500 hung after printing

   drm: GPU not posted. posting now...

when it wasn't selected as the primary card the BIOS.  Some digging
revealed that it was hanging in combios_parse_mmio_table() while
parsing the ASIC INIT 3 table.  Looking at the BIOS ROM for the card,
it becomes obvious that there is no ASIC INIT 3 table in the BIOS.
The code is just processing random garbage.  No surprise it hangs!

Why do I say that there is no ASIC INIT 3 table is the BIOS?  This
table is found through the MISC INFO table.  The MISC INFO table can
be found at offset 0x5e in the COMBIOS header.  But the header is
smaller than that.  The COMBIOS header starts at offset 0x126.  The
standard PCI Data Structure (the bit that starts with 'PCIR') lives at
offset 0x180.  That means that the COMBIOS header can not be larger
than 0x5a bytes and therefore cannot contain a MISC INFO table.

I looked at a dozen or so BIOS images, some my own, some downloaded from:

    

It is fairly obvious that the size of the COMBIOS header can be found
at offset 0x6 of the header.  Not sure if it is a 16-bit number or
just an 8-bit number, but that doesn't really matter since the tables
seems to be always smaller than 256 bytes.

So I think combios_get_table_offset() should check if the requested
table is present.  This can be done by checking the offset against the
size of the header.  See the diff below.  The diff is against the WIP
OpenBSD codebase that roughly corresponds to Linux 3.8.13 at this
point.  But I don't think this bit of the code changed much since
then.

For what it is worth:

ACPI / memhotplug: Fix a stale pointer in error path

2013-08-04T07:43:36+00:00

commit d19f503e22316a84c39bc19445e0e4fdd49b3532 upstream.

device->driver_data needs to be cleared when releasing its data,
mem_device, in an error path of acpi_memory_device_add().

The function evaluates the _CRS of memory device objects, and fails
when it gets an unexpected resource or cannot allocate memory.  A
kernel crash or data corruption may occur when the kernel accesses
the stale pointer.

libata: make it clear that sata_inic162x is experimental

2013-08-04T07:43:34+00:00

commit bb9696192826a7d9279caf872e95b41bc26c7eff upstream.

sata_inic162x never reached a state where it's reliable enough for
production use and data corruption is a relatively common occurrence.
Make the driver generate warning about the issues and mark the Kconfig
option as experimental.

If the situation doesn't improve, we'd be better off making it depend
on CONFIG_BROKEN.  Let's wait for several cycles and see if the kernel
message draws any attention.
