commit 7ac3764fcafc06e72e1a79a9d998b9fdd900b2a6 upstream.

The file include/uapi/linux/usb/cdc-wdm.h uses a __u16 so it needs to
include types.h as well to make the build system happy.

<title>xattr: guard against simultaneous glibc header inclusion</title>

commit ea1a8217b06b41b31a2b60b0b83f75c77ef9c873 upstream.

If the glibc xattr.h header is included after the uapi header,
compilation fails due to an enum re-using a #define from the uapi
header.

Protect against this by guarding the define and enum inclusions against
each other.

<title>floppy: bail out in open() if drive is not responding to block0 read</title>

commit 7b7b68bba5ef23734c35ffb0d8d82079ed604d33 upstream.

In case reading of block 0 during open() fails, it is not the right thing
to let open() succeed.

Fix this by introducing FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT flag, and setting it in
case the bio callback encounters an error while trying to read block 0.

As a bonus, this works around certain broken userspace (blkid), which is
not able to properly handle read()s returning IO errors. Hence be nice to
those, and bail out during open() already; if block 0 is not readable,
read()s are not going to provide any meaningful data anyway.

[ Upstream commit f52ed89971adbe79b6438c459814034707b8ab91 ]

For performance reasons, sch_fq tried hard to not setup timers for every
sent packet, using a quantum based heuristic : A delay is setup only if
the flow exhausted its credit.

Problem is that application limited flows can refill their credit
for every queued packet, and they can evade pacing.

This problem can also be triggered when TCP flows use small MSS values,
as TSO auto sizing builds packets that are smaller than the default fq
quantum (3028 bytes)

This patch adds a 40 ms delay to guard flow credit refill.

The PPC64 people noticed a missing memory barrier and crufty old
comments in the perf ring buffer code. So update all the comments and
add the missing barrier.

When the architecture implements local_t using atomic_long_t there
will be double barriers issued; but short of introducing more
conditional barrier primitives this is the best we can do.

<title>perf: Fix capabilities bitfield compatibility in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'</title>

<id>fa7315871046b9a4c48627905691dbde57e51033</id>
<content type='text'>
Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page::
cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially
fixed by:

  860f085b74e9 ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'")

The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released
officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is
not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the
field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used
on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel.

To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained,
by iterating the ABI the following way:

 - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage-&gt;cap_bit0, to at least not
   confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable
   to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit.

 - Rename bit 1 to -&gt;cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new
   libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero
   without having to check the kernel version.

 - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality:

	cap_user_rdpmc		: 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */
	cap_user_time		: 1, /* The time_* fields are used */
	cap_user_time_zero	: 1, /* The time_zero field is used */

 - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the
   old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it
   accidentally with old assumptions.

The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it
will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.

Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by
Adrian Hunter.

   without having to check the kernel version.

 - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality:

	cap_user_rdpmc		: 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */
	cap_user_time		: 1, /* The time_* fields are used */
	cap_user_time_zero	: 1, /* The time_zero field is used */

 - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the
   old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it
   accidentally with old assumptions.

The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it
will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well.

Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by
Adrian Hunter.
