atmel_lcdfb: fix 16-bpp modes on older SOCs

2013-03-20T20:10:56+00:00

commit a79eac7165ed62114e6ca197195aa5060a54f137 upstream.

Fix regression introduced by commit 787f9fd23283 ("atmel_lcdfb: support
16bit BGR:565 mode, remove unsupported 15bit modes") which broke 16-bpp
modes for older SOCs which use IBGR:555 (msb is intensity) rather
than BGR:565.

Use SOC-type to determine the pixel layout.

Tested on at91sam9263 and at91sam9g45.

mtd: nand: reintroduce NAND_NO_READRDY as NAND_NEED_READRDY

2013-03-20T20:10:56+00:00

commit 5bc7c33ca93a285dcfe7b7fd64970f6314440ad1 upstream.

This partially reverts commit 1696e6bc2ae83734e64e206ac99766ea19e9a14e
("mtd: nand: kill NAND_NO_READRDY").

In that patch I overlooked a few things.

The original documentation for NAND_NO_READRDY included "True for all
large page devices, as they do not support autoincrement." I was
conflating "not support autoincrement" with the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR option,
which was in fact doing nothing. So, when I dropped NAND_NO_AUTOINCR, I
concluded that I then could harmlessly drop NAND_NO_READRDY. But of
course the fact the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR was doing nothing didn't mean
NAND_NO_READRDY was doing nothing...

So, NAND_NO_READRDY is re-introduced as NAND_NEED_READRDY and applied
only to those few remaining small-page NAND which needed it in the first
place.

perf,x86: fix link failure for non-Intel configs

2013-03-20T20:10:56+00:00

commit 6c4d3bc99b3341067775efd4d9d13cc8e655fd7c upstream.

Commit 1d9d8639c063 ("perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after
suspend/resume") introduces a link failure since
perf_restore_debug_store() is only defined for CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL:

	arch/x86/power/built-in.o: In function `restore_processor_state':
	(.text+0x45c): undefined reference to `perf_restore_debug_store'

Fix it by defining the dummy function appropriately.

perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after suspend/resume

2013-03-20T20:10:54+00:00

commit 1d9d8639c063caf6efc2447f5f26aa637f844ff6 upstream.

This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS)
after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked
on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly
by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS
measurement to crash when running on CPU0.

The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore
the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0,
the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.

mfd: rtsx: Fix issue that booting OS with SD card inserted

2013-03-14T18:26:35+00:00

commit c3481955f6c78c8dd99921759306d7469c999ec2 upstream.

Realtek card reader supports both SD and MS card. According to the
settings of rtsx MFD driver, SD host will be probed before MS host.
If we boot/reboot Linux with SD card inserted, the resetting flow of SD
card will succeed, and the following resetting flow of MS is sure to fail.
Then MS upper-level driver will ask rtsx driver to turn power off. This
request leads to the result that the following SD commands fail and SD card
can't be accessed again.

In this commit, Realtek's SD and MS host driver will check whether the card
that upper driver requesting is the one existing in the slot. If not, Realtek's
host driver will refuse the operation to make sure the exlusive accessing
at the same time.

dm: fix truncated status strings

2013-03-14T18:26:11+00:00

commit fd7c092e711ebab55b2688d3859d95dfd0301f73 upstream.

Avoid returning a truncated table or status string instead of setting
the DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG when the last target of a table fills the
buffer.

When processing a table or status request, the function retrieve_status
calls ti->type->status. If ti->type->status returns non-zero,
retrieve_status assumes that the buffer overflowed and sets
DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG.

However, targets don't return non-zero values from their status method
on overflow. Most targets returns always zero.

If a buffer overflow happens in a target that is not the last in the
table, it gets noticed during the next iteration of the loop in
retrieve_status; but if a buffer overflow happens in the last target, it
goes unnoticed and erroneously truncated data is returned.

In the current code, the targets behave in the following way:
* dm-crypt returns -ENOMEM if there is not enough space to store the
  key, but it returns 0 on all other overflows.
* dm-thin returns errors from the status method if a disk error happened.
  This is incorrect because retrieve_status doesn't check the error
  code, it assumes that all non-zero values mean buffer overflow.
* all the other targets always return 0.

This patch changes the ti->type->status function to return void (because
most targets don't use the return code). Overflow is detected in
retrieve_status: if the status method fills up the remaining space
completely, it is assumed that buffer overflow happened.

pstore: Avoid deadlock in panic and emergency-restart path

2013-03-03T22:03:38+00:00

commit 9f244e9cfd70c7c0f82d3c92ce772ab2a92d9f64 upstream.

[Issue]

When pstore is in panic and emergency-restart paths, it may be blocked
in those paths because it simply takes spin_lock.

This is an example scenario which pstore may hang up in a panic path:

 - cpuA grabs psinfo->buf_lock
 - cpuB panics and calls smp_send_stop
 - smp_send_stop sends IRQ to cpuA
 - after 1 second, cpuB gives up on cpuA and sends an NMI instead
 - cpuA is now in an NMI handler while still holding buf_lock
 - cpuB is deadlocked

This case may happen if a firmware has a bug and
cpuA is stuck talking with it more than one second.

Also, this is a similar scenario in an emergency-restart path:

 - cpuA grabs psinfo->buf_lock and stucks in a firmware
 - cpuB kicks emergency-restart via either sysrq-b or hangcheck timer.
   And then, cpuB is deadlocked by taking psinfo->buf_lock again.

[Solution]

This patch avoids the deadlocking issues in both panic and emergency_restart
paths by introducing a function, is_non_blocking_path(), to check if a cpu
can be blocked in current path.

With this patch, pstore is not blocked even if another cpu has
taken a spin_lock, in those paths by changing from spin_lock_irqsave
to spin_trylock_irqsave.

In addition, according to a comment of emergency_restart() in kernel/sys.c,
spin_lock shouldn't be taken in an emergency_restart path to avoid
deadlock. This patch fits the comment below.


/**
 *      emergency_restart - reboot the system
 *
 *      Without shutting down any hardware or taking any locks
 *      reboot the system.  This is called when we know we are in
 *      trouble so this is our best effort to reboot.  This is
 *      safe to call in interrupt context.

xen-blkfront: drop the use of llist_for_each_entry_safe

2013-03-03T22:03:35+00:00

commit f84adf4921ae3115502f44ff467b04bf2f88cf04 upstream.

Replace llist_for_each_entry_safe with a while loop.

llist_for_each_entry_safe can trigger a bug in GCC 4.1, so it's best
to remove it and use a while loop and do the deletion manually.

Specifically this bug can be triggered by hot-unplugging a disk, either
by doing xm block-detach or by save/restore cycle.

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffffffffff0
IP: [] blkif_free+0x63/0x130 [xen_blkfront]
The crash call trace is:
	...
bad_area_nosemaphore+0x13/0x20
do_page_fault+0x25e/0x4b0

dpm_resume+0xc9/0x1a0
dpm_resume_end+0x15/0x30
do_suspend+0x117/0x1e0

When drilling down to the assembler code, on newer GCC it does
.L29:
        cmpq    $-16, %r12      #, persistent_gnt check
        je      .L30    	#, out of the loop
.L25:
	... code in the loop
        testq   %r13, %r13      # n
        je      .L29    	#, back to the top of the loop
        cmpq    $-16, %r12      #, persistent_gnt check
        movq    16(%r12), %r13  # .node.next, n
        jne     .L25    	#,	back to the top of the loop
.L30:

While on GCC 4.1, it is:
L78:
	... code in the loop
	testq   %r13, %r13      # n
        je      .L78    #,	back to the top of the loop
        movq    16(%rbx), %r13  # .node.next, n
        jmp     .L78    #,	back to the top of the loop

Which basically means that the exit loop condition instead of
being:

	&(pos)->member != NULL;

is:
	;

which makes the loop unbound.

Since xen-blkfront is the only user of the llist_for_each_entry_safe
macro remove it from llist.h.
