Upstream as 355423d0849f4506bc71ab2738d38cb74429aaef (post 2.6.28).
Some Realtek chips (RTL8169sb/8110sb in my case) are unable to retrieve
ethtool statistics when the interface is down. The process stays in
endless loop in rtl8169_get_ethtool_stats. This is because these chips
need to have receiver enabled (CmdRxEnb bit in ChipCmd register) that is
cleared when the interface is going down. It's better to update statistics
only when the interface is up and otherwise return copy of statistics
grabbed when the interface was up (in rtl8169_close).
It is interesting that PCI-E NICs (like 8168b/8111b...) are not affected.

commit 78f707bfc723552e8309b7c38a8d0cc51012e813 upstream.
The above commit added WRITE_SYNC and switched various places to using
that for committing writes that will be waited upon immediately after
submission. However, this causes a performance regression with AS and CFQ
for ext3 at least, since sync_dirty_buffer() will submit some writes with
WRITE_SYNC while ext3 has sumitted others dependent writes without the sync
flag set. This causes excessive anticipation/idling in the IO scheduler
because sync and async writes get interleaved, causing a big performance
regression for the below test case (which is meant to simulate sqlite
like behaviour).
---- test case ----
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fdes, i;
FILE *fp;
struct timeval start;
struct timeval end;
struct timeval res;
gettimeofday(&start, NULL);
for (i=0; i<ROWS; i++) {
fp = fopen("test_file", "a");
fprintf(fp, "Some Text Data\n");
fdes = fileno(fp);
fsync(fdes);
fclose(fp);
}
gettimeofday(&end, NULL);
timersub(&end, &start, &res);
fprintf(stdout, "time to write %d lines is %ld(msec)\n", ROWS,
(res.tv_sec*1000000 + res.tv_usec)/1000);
return 0;
}

regression and providing a test case.

upstream commit: 237e75bf1e558f7330f8deb167fa3116405bef2c
The g_ether USB gadget driver currently decides whether or not there's a
link to report back for eth_get_link based on if the USB link speed is
set. The USB gadget speed is however often set even before the device is
enumerated. It seems more sensible to only report a "link" if we're
actually connected to a host that wants to talk to us. The patch below
does this for me - tested with the PXA27x UDC driver.

upstream commit: c018f1ee5cf81e58b93d9e93a2ee39cad13dc1ac
The big driver change in 2.4.19-rc1 introduced a regression for many HPT370[A]
chips -- DMA stopped to work completely, only causing endless timeouts...
The culprit has been identified (at last!): it turned to be the code resetting
the DMA state machine before each transfer. Stop doing it now as this counter-
measure has clearly caused more harm than good.
This should fix the kernel.org bug #7703.

upstream commit: 306a82881b14d950d59e0b59a55093a07d82aa9a
Richard Henderson pointed out that the powerpc __futex_atomic_op has a
bug: it will write the wrong value if the stwcx. fails and it has to
retry the lwarx/stwcx. loop, since 'oparg' will have been overwritten
by the result from the first time around the loop. This happens
because it uses the same register for 'oparg' (an input) as it uses
for the result.
This fixes it by using separate registers for 'oparg' and 'ret'.

upstream commit: 0ad30b8fd5fe798aae80df6344b415d8309342cc
When POSIX capabilities were introduced during the 2.1 Linux
cycle, the fs mask, which represents the capabilities which having
fsuid==0 is supposed to grant, did not include CAP_MKNOD and
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE. However, before capabilities the privilege
to call these did in fact depend upon fsuid==0.
This patch introduces those capabilities into the fsmask,
restoring the old behavior.
See the thread starting at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/11/157 for
reference.
Note that if this fix is deemed valid, then earlier kernel versions (2.4
and 2.2) ought to be fixed too.
Changelog:
[Mar 23] Actually delete old CAP_FS_SET definition...

upstream commit: e3c8ca8336707062f3f7cb1cd7e6b3c753baccdd
Freezing tasks via the cgroup freezer causes the load average to climb
because the freezer's current implementation puts frozen tasks in
uninterruptible sleep (D state).
Some applications which perform job-scheduling functions consult the
load average when making decisions. If a cgroup is frozen, the load
average does not provide a useful measure of the system's utilization
to such applications. This is especially inconvenient if the job
scheduler employs the cgroup freezer as a mechanism for preempting low
priority jobs. Contrast this with using SIGSTOP for the same purpose:
the stopped tasks do not count toward system load.
Change task_contributes_to_load() to return false if the task is
frozen. This results in /proc/loadavg behavior that better meets
users' expectations.

Le lundi 30 mars 2009, Chris Wright a écrit :
> q->queue could be ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) which will break unwinding
> on error. Make iscsi_pool_free more defensive.
>
Making the freeing of q->queue dependent on q->pool being set looks
really weird (although it is correct at the moment. But this seems
to be fixable in a much simpler way.
With the benefit that only the error case is slowed down. In both
cases we have a problem if q->queue contains an error value but it's
not -ENOMEM. Apparently this can't happen today, but it doesn't feel
right to assume this will always be true. Maybe it's the right time
to fix this as well.

upstream commit: f474a37bc48667595b5653a983b635c95ed82a3b
Memory freeing in iscsi_pool_free() looks wrong to me. Either q->pool
can be NULL and this should be tested before dereferencing it, or it
can't be NULL and it shouldn't be tested at all. As far as I can see,
the only case where q->pool is NULL is on early error in
iscsi_pool_init(). One possible way to fix the bug is thus to not
call iscsi_pool_free() in this case (nothing needs to be freed anyway)
and then we can get rid of the q->pool check.

upstream commit: 7bfac9ecf0585962fe13584f5cf526d8c8e76f17
There's a possible deadlock in generic_file_splice_write(),
splice_from_pipe() and ocfs2_file_splice_write():
- task A calls generic_file_splice_write()
- this calls inode_double_lock(), which locks i_mutex on both
pipe->inode and target inode
- ordering depends on inode pointers, can happen that pipe->inode is
locked first
- __splice_from_pipe() needs more data, calls pipe_wait()
- this releases lock on pipe->inode, goes to interruptible sleep
- task B calls generic_file_splice_write(), similarly to the first
- this locks pipe->inode, then tries to lock inode, but that is
already held by task A
- task A is interrupted, it tries to lock pipe->inode, but fails, as
it is already held by task B
- ABBA deadlock
Fix this by explicitly ordering locks: the outer lock must be on
target inode and the inner lock (which is later unlocked and relocked)
must be on pipe->inode. This is OK, pipe inodes and target inodes
form two nonoverlapping sets, generic_file_splice_write() and friends
are not called with a target which is a pipe.

upstream commit: 1f9352ae2253a97b07b34dcf16ffa3b4ca12c558
Commit e1b4b9f ([NETFILTER]: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: fix exponential worst-case
search for loops) introduced a regression in the loop detection algorithm,
causing sporadic incorrectly detected loops.
When a chain has already been visited during the check, it is treated as
having a standard target containing a RETURN verdict directly at the
beginning in order to not check it again. The real target of the first
rule is then incorrectly treated as STANDARD target and checked not to
contain invalid verdicts.
Fix by making sure the rule does actually contain a standard target.

upstream commit: b6fac63cc1f52ec27f29fe6c6c8494a2ffac33fd
clear_inode() will switch inode state from I_FREEING to I_CLEAR, and do so
_outside_ of inode_lock. So any I_FREEING testing is incomplete without a
coupled testing of I_CLEAR.
So add I_CLEAR tests to drop_pagecache_sb(), generic_sync_sb_inodes() and
add_dquot_ref().
Masayoshi MIZUMA discovered the bug in drop_pagecache_sb() and Jan Kara
reminds fixing the other two cases.

Commit 778d80be52699596bf70e0eb0761cf5e1e46088d
(ipv6: Add disable_ipv6 sysctl to disable IPv6 operaion on specific interface)
seems to have introduced a leak of sk_buff's for ipv6 traffic,
at least in some configurations where idev is NULL, or when ipv6
is disabled via sysctl.
The problem is that if the first condition of the if-statement
returns non-NULL, it returns an skb with only one reference,
and when the other conditions apply, execution jumps to the "out"
label, which does not call kfree_skb for it.
To plug this leak, change to use the "drop" label instead.
(this relies on it being ok to call kfree_skb on NULL)
This also allows us to avoid calling rcu_read_unlock here,
and removes the only user of the "out" label.

[ Upstream commit 3f53a38131a4e7a053c0aa060aba0411242fb6b9 ]
We already have a valid net in that place, but this is not just a
cleanup - the tw pointer can be NULL there sometimes, thus causing
an oops in NET_NS=y case.
The same place in ipv4 code already works correctly using existing
net, rather than tw's one.
The bug exists since 2.6.27.

This fixes an crash when empty bond device is added to a bridge.
If an interface with invalid ethernet address (all zero) is added
to a bridge, then bridge code detects it when setting up the forward
databas entry. But the error unwind is broken, the bridge port object
can get freed twice: once when ref count went to zeo, and once by kfree.
Since object is never really accessible, just free it.

bonding: refactor mii monitor
The un-refactored code checked the link speed and duplex of
every slave on every pass; the refactored code did not do so.
The 802.3ad and balance-alb/tlb modes utilize the speed and
duplex information, and require it to be kept up to date. This patch
adds a notifier check to perform the appropriate updating when the slave
device speed changes.

upstream commit: 3ff42da5048649503e343a32be37b14a6a4e8aaf
Impact: bug fix + BIOS workaround
BIOS is expected to clear the SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on AMD CPUs
after fixed MTRRs are configured.
Some BIOSes do not clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] on BP (and on APs).
This can lead to obfuscation in Linux when this bit is not cleared on
BP but cleared on APs. A consequence of this is that the saved
fixed-MTRR state (from BP) differs from the fixed-MTRRs of APs --
because RdDram/WrDram bits are read as zero when
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] is cleared -- and Linux tries to sync
fixed-MTRR state from BP to AP. This implies that Linux sets
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and activates those bits.
More important is that (some) systems change these bits in SMM when
ACPI is enabled. Hence it is racy if Linux modifies RdMem/WrMem bits,
too.
(1) The patch modifies an old fix from Bernhard Kaindl to get
suspend/resume working on some Acer Laptops. Bernhard's patch
tried to sync RdMem/WrMem bits of fixed MTRR registers and that
helped on those old Laptops. (Don't ask me why -- can't test it
myself). But this old problem was not the motivation for the
patch. (See http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/3/110)
(2) The more important effect is to fix issues on some more current systems.
On those systems Linux panics or just freezes, see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11541
(and also duplicates of this bug:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11737
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11714)
The affected systems boot only using acpi=ht, acpi=off or
when the kernel is built with CONFIG_MTRR=n.
The acpi options prevent full enablement of ACPI. Obviously when
ACPI is enabled the BIOS/SMM modfies RdMem/WrMem bits. When
CONFIG_MTRR=y Linux also accesses and modifies those bits when it
needs to sync fixed-MTRRs across cores (Bernhard's fix, see (1)).
How do you synchronize that? You can't. As a consequence Linux
shouldn't touch those bits at all (Rationale are AMD's BKDGs which
recommend to clear the bit that makes RdMem/WrMem accessible).
This is the purpose of this patch. And (so far) this suffices to
fix (1) and (2).
I suggest not to touch RdDram/WrDram bits of fixed-MTRRs and
SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramEn] and to clear SYSCFG[MtrrFixDramModEn] as
suggested by AMD K8, and AMD family 10h/11h BKDGs.
BIOS is expected to do this anyway. This should avoid that
Linux and SMM tread on each other's toes ...

While looking at the issue in the thread:
http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=123606627824556&w=2
noticed a bug in pci PAT code and memory type setting.
PCI mmap code did not set the proper protection in vma, when it
inherited protection in reserve_memtype. This bug only affects
the case where there exists a WC mapping before X does an mmap
with /proc or /sys pci interface. This will cause X userlevel
mmap from /proc or /sysfs to fail on fork.

upstream commit: 090b90118207e786d2990310d063fda5d52cce6e
Restore some code that was wrongly dropped from the RNDIS
driver, and caused interop problems observed with OpenMoko.
The issue is with hardware which needs help conforming to part
of the USB 2.0 spec (section 8.5.3.2); some can automagically
send a ZLP in response to an unexpected IN, but not all chips
will do that. We don't need to check the packet length ourselves
the way earlier code did, since the UDC must already check it.
But we do need to tell the UDC when it must force a short packet
termination of the data stage.

upstream commit: 5c16034d73da2c1b663aa25dedadbc533b3d811c
This patch (as1203) increases the max_sector limit for USB tape
drives. By default usb-storage sets max_sectors to 240 (i.e., 120 KB)
for all devices. But tape drives need a higher limit, since tapes can
and do have very large block sizes. Without the ability to transfer
an entire large block in a single command, such tapes can't be used.
This fixes Bugzilla #12207.

commit 64a87b24: [SCSI] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd buffer
changed the scsi_eh_prep_cmnd logic by making it clear
the ->cmnd buffer. But the sat to cypress atacb translation supposed
the ->cmnd buffer wasn't modified.
This patch makes it set the ->cmnd buffer after scsi_eh_prep_cmnd call.
The problem and a fix was reported by Matthieu CASTET <castet.matthieu@free.fr>
It also removes all the hackery fiddling of scsi_cmnd and scsi_eh_save by
requesting from scsi_eh_prep_cmnd to prepare a read into ->sense_buffer,
which is much more suitable a buffer for HW transfers, then after the command
execution the regs read is copied into regs buffer before actual preparation
of sense_buffer.
Also fix an alien comment character to my utf-8 editor.

upstream commit: a2c2706e1043c17139c2dafd171c4a5cf008ef7e
This patch (as1204) adds a software retry mechanism to ehci-hcd. It
gets invoked when the driver encounters transaction errors on an
asynchronous endpoint. On many systems, hardware deficiencies cause
such errors to occur if one device is unplugged while the host is
communicating with another device. With the patch, the failed
transactions are retried and generally succeed the second or third
time through.
This is based on code originally written by Koichiro Saito.

commit 6ff10464096540e14d7575a72c50d0316d003714 upstream.
The usbfs driver manages a list of completed asynchronous URBs. But
it is too eager to free the entries on this list: destroy_async() gets
called whenever an interface is unbound or a device is removed, and it
deallocates the outstanding struct async entries for all URBs on that
interface or device. This is wrong; the user program should be able
to reap an URB any time after it has completed, regardless of whether
or not the interface is still bound or the device is still present.
This patch (as1222) moves the code for deallocating the completed list
entries from destroy_async() to usbdev_release(). The outstanding
entries won't be freed until the user program has closed the device
file, thereby eliminating any possibility that the remaining URBs
might still be reaped.
This fixes a bug in which a program can hang in the USBDEVFS_REAPURB
ioctl when the device is unplugged.
