[S390] Initialize __LC_THREAD_INFO early.
"lockdep: Fix backtraces" reveales a bug in early setup code: when
lockdep tries to save a stack backtrace before setup_arch has been
called the lowcore pointer for the current thread info pointer isn't
initialized yet.
However our save stack backtrace code relies on it. If the pointer
isn't initialized the saved backtrace will have zero entries.
lockdep however relies (correctly) on the fact that that cannot
happen.
A write access to some random memory region is the result.
Fix this by initializing the thread info pointer early.

[S390] fix recursive locking on page_table_lock
Suzuki Poulose reported the following recursive locking bug on s390:
Here is the stack trace : (see Appendix I for more info)
[<

[<

[<
00000200001642b2>] 0x200001642b2
The page_table_lock is already acquired in __pmd_alloc (mm/memory.c) and
it tries to populate the pud/pgd with a new pmd allocated. If another
thread populates it before we get a chance, we free the pmd using
pmd_free().
On s390x, pmd_free(even pud_free ) is #defined to crst_table_free(),
which acquires the page_table_lock to protect the crst_table index updates.
Hence this ends up in a recursive locking of the page_table_lock.
The solution suggested by Dave Hansen is to use a new spin lock in the mmu
context to protect the access to the crst_list and the pgtable_list.

In device_destroy() the vmur class is used. Since it is already freed,

field from userspace table output") added a call to strstr() with a
single-character "needle" string parameter.
Unfortunately some versions of gcc replace such calls to strstr() by calls
to strchr() behind our back. This causes linking errors if strchr() is
defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k):

binfmt_elf: fix PT_INTERP bss handling
In fs/binfmt_elf.c, load_elf_interp() calls padzero() for .bss even if
the PT_LOAD has no PROT_WRITE and no .bss. This generates EFAULT.
Here is a small test case. (Yes, there are other, useful PT_INTERP
which have only .text and no .data/.bss.)
----- ptinterp.S
_start: .globl _start
nop
int3
-----
$ gcc -m32 -nostartfiles -nostdlib -o ptinterp ptinterp.S
$ gcc -m32 -Wl,--dynamic-linker=ptinterp -o hello hello.c
$ ./hello
Segmentation fault # during execve() itself
After applying the patch:
$ ./hello
Trace trap # user-mode execution after execve() finishes
If the ELF headers are actually self-inconsistent, then dying is fine.
But having no PROT_WRITE segment is perfectly normal and correct if
there is no segment with p_memsz > p_filesz (i.e. bss). John Reiser
suggested checking for PROT_WRITE in the bss logic. I think it makes
most sense to simply apply the bss logic only when there is bss.
This patch looks less trivial than it is due to some reindentation.
It just moves the "if (last_bss > elf_bss) {" test up to include the
partial-page bss logic as well as the more-pages bss logic.

IP: [<

dev_priv->hw_status_page = NULL;
but if an i915 interrupt comes in after this stage, it may want to
access that hw_status_page, and gets the above NULL pointer dereference.
And since the NULL pointer dereference happens from within an interrupt,
and with the screen still in graphics mode, the common end result is
simply a silently hung machine.
Fix it by simply uninstalling the irq handler before idling rather than
after. Fixes

ext2: fix unbalanced kmap()/kunmap()
In ext2_rename(), dir_page is acquired through ext2_dotdot(). It is

Failing that, the pkmap reference count is never decremented and the

end up stalling on the pkmap_map_wait queue at which point the whole

pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside 'pty_write()'
The whole write-room thing is something that is up to the _caller_ to
worry about, not the pty layer itself. The total buffer space will
still be limited by the buffering routines themselves, so there is no
advantage or need in having pty_write() artificially limit the size
somehow.
And what happened was that the caller (the n_tty line discipline, in
this case) may have verified that there is room for 2 bytes to be
written (for NL -> CRNL expansion), and it used to then do those writes
as two single-byte writes. And if the first byte written (CR) then
caused a new tty buffer to be allocated, pty_space() may have returned
zero when trying to write the second byte (LF), and then incorrectly
failed the write - leading to a lost newline character.
This should finally fix

n_tty: do O_ONLCR translation as a single write
When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as
two tty_put_char() calls. Which works, but is stupid, and has caused
problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic.
The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example.
Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic
tty buffering code (in commit
d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc:
"pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic").
So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write
instead. That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space
expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just
a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test,
which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering,
it won't cause weeks of debugging.

exec: do not sleep in TASK_TRACED under ->cred_guard_mutex
Tom Horsley reports that his debugger hangs when it tries to read
/proc/pid_of_tracee/maps, this happens since
"mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec"
04b836cbf19e885f8366bccb2e4b0474346c02d
commit in 2.6.31.
But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls
tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC.
The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we
remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(),
another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the
tracee resumes.
With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and
we do not hold it throughout, instead:
- introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex
and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred.
- install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(),
and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop().
or, if exec fails,
free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which
indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

page-allocator: always change pageblock ownership when anti-fragmentation is disabled
On low-memory systems, anti-fragmentation gets disabled as fragmentation
cannot be avoided on a sufficiently large boundary to be worthwhile. Once
disabled, there is a period of time when all the pageblocks are marked
MOVABLE and the expectation is that they get marked UNMOVABLE at each call
to __rmqueue_fallback().
However, when MAX_ORDER is large the pageblocks do not change ownership
because the normal criteria are not met. This has the effect of
prematurely breaking up too many large contiguous blocks. This is most
serious on NOMMU systems which depend on high-order allocations to boot.
This patch causes pageblocks to change ownership on every fallback when
anti-fragmentation is disabled. This prevents the large blocks being
prematurely broken up.
This is a fix to commit
49255c619fbd482d704289b5eb2795f8e3b7ff2e [page
allocator: move check for disabled anti-fragmentation out of fastpath] and

workqueues: introduce __cancel_delayed_work()
cancel_delayed_work() has to use del_timer_sync() to guarantee the timer
function is not running after return. But most users doesn't actually
need this, and del_timer_sync() has problems: it is not useable from
interrupt, and it depends on every lock which could be taken from irq.
Introduce __cancel_delayed_work() which calls del_timer() instead.

cameras in dual buffer mode. Whether this is due to different chip
revisions or different usage patterns (different video formats) is not
yet clear. However, as far as the current capabilities of
firewire-core's isochronous I/O interface are concerned, simply
switching off dual-buffer on non-working and working FW643s alike is not
a problem in practice. We only need to revisit this issue if we are
going to enhance the interface, e.g. so that applications can explicitly
choose modes.
