commit 14a4dfe2ff8c353f59ae8324059ded1cfe22c7d9 upstream.
This patch fixes sporadic firmware restarts when scanning while associated.
The firmware will quietly cancel a scan (while associated) if the dwell time
for a channel to be scanned is larger than the time it may stay away from the
operating channel (because of DTIM catching). Unfortunately the driver is not
notified about the canceled scan and therefore the scan watchdog timeout will
be hit and the driver causes a firmware restart which results in
disassociation. This mainly happens on passive channels which use a dwell time
of 120 whereas a typical beacon interval is around 100.
The patch changes the dwell time for passive channels to be slightly smaller
than the actual beacon interval to work around the firmware issue. Furthermore
the number of allowed beacon misses is increased from one to three as otherwise
most scans (while associated) won't complete successfully.
However scanning while associated will still fail in corner cases such as a
beacon intervals below 30.

commit 935e5f290ec1eb0f1c15004421f5fd3154380fd5 upstream.
Section B.6.2 of ACPI 3.0b specification that defines _BCL method
doesn't require the brightness levels returned to be sorted.
At least ThinkPad SL300 (and probably all IdeaPads) returns the
array reversed (i.e. bightest levels have lowest indexes), which
causes the brightness management behave in completely reversed
manner on these machines (brightness increases when the laptop is
idle, while the display dims when used).
Sorting the array by brightness level values after reading the list
fixes the issue.

commit 92dc07b1f988e8c237a38e23be660b9b8533e6fd upstream.
The elf_core_dump() code does its work with set_fs(KERNEL_DS) in force,
so vma_dump_size() needs to switch back with set_fs(USER_DS) to safely
use get_user() for a normal user-space address.
Checking for VM_READ optimizes out the case where get_user() would fail
anyway. The vm_file check here was already superfluous given the control
flow earlier in the function, so that is a cleanup/optimization unrelated
to other changes but an obvious and trivial one.

commit d5b562330ec766292a3ac54ae5e0673610bd5b3d upstream.
Commit 27421e211a39784694b597dbf35848b88363c248, Manually revert
"mlock: downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions", has
introduced its own regression: __mlock_vma_pages_range() may report
an error (for example, -EFAULT from trying to lock down pages from
beyond EOF), but mlock_vma_pages_range() must hide that from its
callers as before.

Dual 16950 Serial adapter

The PCI-card identified as "Oxford Semiconductor Ltd EXSYS EX-41092 Dual
16950 Serial adapter" is only usable with other devices (i.e. not the same
card) after doing a "setserial /dev/ttyS<n> baud_base 115200". This
baud_base should be default for this card.

commit f01d1d546abb2f4028b5299092f529eefb01253a upstream.
lseek() further than length of the file will leave stale ->index
(second-to-last during iteration). Next seq_read() will not notice
that ->f_pos is big enough to return 0, but will print last item
as if ->f_pos is pointing to it.
Introduced in commit cb510b8172602a66467f3551b4be1911f5a7c8c2

commit 33da8892a2f9e7d4b2d9a35fc80833ba2d2b1aa6 upstream.
In 2.6.25 some /proc files were converted to use the seq_file
infrastructure. But seq_files do not correctly support pread(), which
broke some usersapce applications.
To handle pread correctly we can't assume that f_pos is where we left it
in seq_read. So move traverse() so that we can eventually use it in
seq_read and do thus some day support pread().

commit 3419c75e15f82c3ab09bd944fddbde72c9e4b3ea upstream.
We only want to disable ASPM when the last function is removed from
the parent's device list. We determine this by checking to see if
the parent's device list is completely empty.
Unfortunately, we never hit that code because the parent is considered
an upstream port, and never had an ASPM link_state associated with it.
The early check for !link_state causes us to return early, we never
discover that our device list is empty, and thus we never remove the
downstream ports' link_state nodes.
Instead of checking to see if the parent's device list is empty, we can
check to see if we are the last device on the list, and if so, then we
know that we can clean up properly.

commit 386e4a8358239f90275e1f93d5ad11cdc93c6453 upstream.
During early boot, ACPI RSDT/XSDT table entries are gathered into the
'initial_tables[]' array. This array is currently statically defined (see
./drivers/acpi/tables.c). When there are more table entries than can be
held in the 'initial_tables[]' array, the message "Truncating N table
entries!" is output. As currently implemented, this message will always
erroneously calculate N as 0.
This patch fixes the calculation that determines how many table entries
will be missing (truncated).
This modification may be used under either the GPL or the BSD-style
license used for Intel ACPI CA code.

commit 9e3a9d1ed8cc8db93e5c53e9a5b09065bd95de8b upstream.
When ACPI is disabled in the BIOS of this VIA C3 box,
it invalidates the RSDP, which Linux notices:
ACPI Error (tbxfroot-0218): A valid RSDP was not found [20080926]
Bug Linux neglected to disable ACPI at that stage,
and later scribbled on smp_found_config:
ACPI: No APIC-table, disabling MPS
But this box doesn't run well in legacy PIC mode,
it needed IOAPIC mode to perform correctly:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/5/39
So exit ACPI mode cleanly when we first detect
that it is hopeless.

commit 0a3db1cec5d476804185114ff5d1845aed3936b3 upstream.
According to the Spec the first two elements in the _BCL package won't be
regarded as the available brightness level. The first is the brightness when
full power is connected to the box(It means that the AC adapter is plugged).
The second is the brightness level when the box is on battery.
If the first two elements are still used while finding the next brightness
level, it will fall back to the lowest level when keeping on pressing
hotkey. (On some boxes the brightness will be changed twice when hotkey is
pressed once. One is in the ACPI video driver. The other is changed by sys I/F.
In the ACPI video driver the first two elements will be used while changing
the brightness. But the first two elements is skipped while using sys I/F.
In such case there exists the inconsistency).
So he first two elements had better be skipped while showing the available
brightness or finding the next brightness level.

ACPI MP table (MADT)
Booting a 32bit kernel on an AMD Fam10h CPU running on chipsets with
missing/b0rked MP table leads to a hang pretty early in the boot process
due to the APIC not being initialized. Fix that by falling back to the
default APIC base address in 32bit code, as it is done in the 64bit
codepath.

In the commit below a new struct serial_rs485 was introduced for a new

commit c26c56c0f40e200e61d1390629c806f6adaffbcc
Author: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com>
Date: Mon Oct 13 10:37:48 2008 +0100
tty: Cris has a nice RS485 ioctl so we should steal it
This structure uses the __u32 types for some of its members, which leads
to the following compile error:
$ cc -I.../include -c X.c
In file included from X.c:2: .../include/linux/serial.h:185:
error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘__u32’
$
It seems that these types are appropriate for this structure as it is
to be exposed to userspace. These types are available via linux/types.h
so move the include of that outside the __KERNEL__ section.

Commit c8c4707cf7ca8ff7dcc1653447e48cb3de0bf114 upstream.
According to https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294391
- 3rd generation iPods need the "fix capacity" workaround after all
(apparently they crash after the last sector was accessed),
- 2nd generation iPods need the "128 kB maximum request size"
workaround.
Alas both iPod generations feature the same model ID in the config ROM,
hence we can only define a shared quirks list entry for them. Luckily
the fix capacity workaround did not show a negative effect in Jarod's
tests with 2nd gen. iPod.
A side note: Apple computers in target mode (or at least an x86 Mac
mini) don't have firmware_version and model_id, hence none of the iPod
quirks list entries is active for them.

camcorders and others
Commit 8b7b6afaa84708d08139daa08538ca3e56c351f1 upstream.
Camcorders have a tendency to fail read requests to their config ROM and
write request to their FCP command register with ack_busy_X. This has
become a problem with newer kernels and especially Panasonic camcorders,
causing AV/C in dvgrab and kino to fail. Dvgrab for example frequently
logs "send oops"; kino reports loss of AV/C control. I suspect that
lower CPU scheduling latencies in newer kernels made this issue more
prominent now.
According to
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=114103&aid=2492640&group_id=14103
this can be fixed by configuring the FireWire controller for more
hardware retries for request transmission; these retries are evidently
more successful than libavc1394's own retry loop (typically 3 tries on
top of hardware retries).
Presumably the same issue has been reported at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449252 and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477279 .
In a quick test with a JVC camcorder (which didn't malfunction like the
reported camcorders), this change decreased the number of ack_busy_X
from 16 in three runs of dvgrab to 4 in three runs of the same capture
duration.

lower CPU scheduling latencies in newer kernels made this issue more
prominent now.
According to
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=114103&aid=2492640&group_id=14103
this can be fixed by configuring the FireWire controller for more
hardware retries for request transmission; these retries are evidently
more successful than libavc1394's own retry loop (typically 3 tries on
top of hardware retries).
Presumably the same issue has been reported at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449252 and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477279 .

commit fc5a9f8841ee87d93376ada5d73117d4d6a373ea upstream.
Some devices trigger a DEVICE_CHECK on every evalutation of _STA. This
can also be seen in commit 8b59560a3baf2e7c24e0fb92ea5d09eca92805db
(ACPI: dock: avoid check _STA method). If an undock is processed, the
dock driver sends a uevent and userspace might read the show_docked
property in sysfs. This causes an evaluation of _STA of the particular
device which causes the dock driver to immediately dock again.
In any case, evaluation of _STA (show_docked) does not necessarily mean
that we are docked, so check with the internal device structure.

commit d96f94c604453f87fe24154b87e1e9a3a72511f8 upstream.
Bit 11 in intel PDC definitions is meant for OS capability to handle
hardware coordination of P-states. In Linux we have always supported
hwardware coordination of P-states. Just let the BIOSes know that we
support it, by setting this bit.
Some BIOSes use this bit to choose between hardware or software coordination
and without this change below, BIOSes switch to software coordination, which
is not very optimal in terms of power consumption and extra wakeups from idle.

commit 852c8bf484a0e17ee27f413ef26e87f522af5607 upstream.
ab5bd5cbc8d4b868378d062eed3d4240930fbb86 introduced the following
bug in linear software raid for large arrays on 32 bit machines:
which_dev() computes the device holding a given sector by shifting
down the sector number to a 32 bit range, dividing by the array
spacing and looking up the resulting index in the hash table of
the array.
Because the computed index might be slightly too small, a loop at
the end of which_dev() increases the index until the given sector
actually falls into the range of the device associated with that index.
The changes of the above mentioned commit caused this loop to check
whether the _index_ rather than the sector number is small enough,
effectively bypassing the loop and thus possibly returning the wrong
device.
As reported by Simon Kirby, this leads to errors such as
linear_make_request: Sector 2340486136 out of bounds on dev sdi: 156301312 sectors, offset 2109870464
Fix this bug by introducing a local variable for the index so that
the variable containing the passed sector is left unchanged.

commit de01dfadf25bf83cfe3d85c163005c4320532658 upstream.
Each different metadata format supported by md supports a
different maximum number of devices.
We really should be enforcing this maximum in the kernel, but
we aren't quite doing that properly.
We currently only enforce it at the 'hot_add' point, which is an
older interface which is not used by current userspace.
We need to also enforce it at 'add_new_disk' time for active arrays
and at 'do_md_run' time when starting a new array.
So move the test from 'hot_add' into 'bind_rdev_to_array' which is
called from both 'hot_add' and 'add_new_disk, and add a new
test in 'analyse_sbs' which is called from 'do_md_run'.
This bug (or missing feature) has been around "forever" and so
the patch is suitable for any -stable that is currently maintained.

commit 894dcd78782842924527598b0b764c9b4e679e21 upstream.
For audio devices that do not have proper audio descriptors (e.g.,
Edirol UA-20), we use hardcoded parameters from our quirks list.
However, we must still read the maximum packet size from the standard
endpoint descriptor; otherwise, we might use packets that are too big
and therefore rejected by the USB core.

commit 60fd760fb9ff7034360bab7137c917c0330628c2 upstream.
Revert commit 0c2d64fb6cae9aae480f6a46cfe79f8d7d48b59f because it causes
(arguably poorly designed) existing userspace to spend interminable
periods closing billions of not-open file descriptors.
We could bring this back, with some sort of opt-in tunable in /proc, which
defaults to "off".
Peter's alanysis follows:
: I spent several hours trying to get to the bottom of a serious
: performance issue that appeared on one of our servers after upgrading to
: 2.6.28. In the end it's what could be considered a userspace bug that
: was triggered by a change in 2.6.28. Since this might also affect other
: people I figured I'd at least document what I found here, and maybe we
: can even do something about it:
:
:
: So, I upgraded some of debian.org's machines to 2.6.28.1 and immediately
: the team maintaining our ftp archive complained that one of their
: scripts that previously ran in a few minutes still hadn't even come
: close to being done after an hour or so. Downgrading to 2.6.27 fixed
: that.
:
: Turns out that script is forking a lot and something in it or python or
: whereever closes all the file descriptors it doesn't want to pass on.
: That is, it starts at zero and goes up to ulimit -n/RLIMIT_NOFILE and
: closes them all with a few exceptions.
:
: Turns out that takes a long time when your limit -n is now 2^20 (1048576).
:
: With 2.6.27.* the ulimit -n was the standard 1024, but with 2.6.28 it is
: now a thousand times that.
:
: 2.6.28 included a patch titled "rlimit: permit setting RLIMIT_NOFILE to
: RLIM_INFINITY" (0c2d64fb6cae9aae480f6a46cfe79f8d7d48b59f)[1] that
: allows, as the title implies, to set the limit for number of files to
: infinity.
:
: Closer investigation showed that the broken default ulimit did not apply
: to "system" processes (like stuff started from init). In the end I
: could establish that all processes that passed through pam_limit at one
: point had the bad resource limit.
:
: Apparently the pam library in Debian etch (4.0) initializes the limits
: to some default values when it doesn't have any settings in limit.conf
: to override them. Turns out that for nofiles this is RLIM_INFINITY.
: Commenting out "case RLIMIT_NOFILE" in pam_limit.c:267 of our pam
: package version 0.79-5 fixes that - tho I'm not sure what side effects
: that has.
:
: Debian lenny (the upcoming 5.0 version) doesn't have this issue as it
: uses a different pam (version).

commit a68e61e8ff2d46327a37b69056998b47745db6fa upstream.
shm_get_stat() assumes that the inode is a "struct shmem_inode_info",
which is incorrect for !CONFIG_SHMEM (see fs/ramfs/inode.c:
ramfs_get_inode() vs. mm/shmem.c: shmem_get_inode()).
This bad assumption can cause shmctl(SHM_INFO) to lockup when
shm_get_stat() tries to spin_lock(&info->lock). Users of !CONFIG_SHMEM
may encounter this lockup simply by invoking the 'ipcs' command.

commit 777c6c5f1f6e757ae49ecca2ed72d6b1f523c007 upstream.
With exclusive waiters, every process woken up through the wait queue must
ensure that the next waiter down the line is woken when it has finished.
Interruptible waiters don't do that when aborting due to a signal. And if
an aborting waiter is concurrently woken up through the waitqueue, noone
will ever wake up the next waiter.
This has been observed with __wait_on_bit_lock() used by
lock_page_killable(): the first contender on the queue was aborting when
the actual lock holder woke it up concurrently. The aborted contender
didn't acquire the lock and therefor never did an unlock followed by
waking up the next waiter.
Add abort_exclusive_wait() which removes the process' wait descriptor from
the waitqueue, iff still queued, or wakes up the next waiter otherwise.
It does so under the waitqueue lock. Racing with a wake up means the
aborting process is either already woken (removed from the queue) and will
wake up the next waiter, or it will remove itself from the queue and the
concurrent wake up will apply to the next waiter after it.
Use abort_exclusive_wait() in __wait_event_interruptible_exclusive() and
__wait_on_bit_lock() when they were interrupted by other means than a wake
up through the queue.

commit ab92661d5d9514647346047f30f67a7f35ffea67 upstream.
Fix do_wp_page for VM_MIXEDMAP mappings.
In the case where pfn_valid returns 0 for a pfn at the beginning of
do_wp_page and the mapping is not shared writable, the code branches to
label `gotten:' with old_page == NULL.
In case the vma is locked (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED), lock_page,
clear_page_mlock, and unlock_page try to access the old_page.
This patch checks whether old_page is valid before it is dereferenced.
The regression was introduced by "mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable"
(commit b291f000393f5a0b679012b39d79fbc85c018233).

A missing type cast results in writing way beyond the end of a kzalloc()'d
memory segment resulting in slab corruption. But it seems like the better
solution is to define ->recv_msg_slots as a 'void *' rather than a
'struct xpc_notify_mq_msg_uv *' and add the type cast.

commit 20d5a39929232a715f29e6cb7e3f0d0c790f41eb upstream.
dlm_posix_get fills out the relevant fields in the file_lock before
returning when there is a lock conflict, but doesn't clean out any of
the other fields in the file_lock.
When nfsd does a NFSv4 lockt call, it sets the fl_lmops to
nfsd_posix_mng_ops before calling the lower fs. When the lock comes back
after testing a lock on GFS2, it still has that field set. This confuses
nfsd into thinking that the file_lock is a nfsd4 lock.
Fix this by making DLM reinitialize the file_lock before copying the
fields from the conflicting lock.

commit 11e93130c7ce5228d484fd5e86f3984835d4256b upstream.
According to the ACPI specification the SCI_EN flag is controlled by
the hardware, which sets this flag to inform the kernel that ACPI is
enabled. For this reason, we shouldn't try to modify SCI_EN
directly. Also, we don't need to do it in irqrouter_resume(), since
lower-level resume code takes care of enabling ACPI in case it hasn't
been enabled by the BIOS before passing control to the kernel (which
by the way is against the ACPI specification).
