This patch corrects an error in the driver it8712f_wdt.  You cannot set
the 16-bit WDT_TIMEOUT access as a 16-bit outw, because the byte

16 years agoACPI PM: Restore the 2.6.24 suspend ordering
Rafael J. Wysocki [Sun, 30 Mar 2008 01:19:07 +0000 (02:19 +0100)] 
ACPI PM: Restore the 2.6.24 suspend ordering

Some time ago it turned out that our suspend code ordering broke some
NVidia-based systems that hung if _PTS was executed with one of the PCI
devices, specifically a USB controller, in a low power state.

Then, it was noticed that the suspend code ordering was not compliant
with ACPI 1.0, although it was compliant with ACPI 2.0 (and later), and
it was argued that the code had to be changed for that reason (ref.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9528).

So we did, but evidently we did wrong, because it's now turning out that
some systems have been broken by this change. Refs:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10340
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374217#c16

[ I said at that time that something like this might happend, but the
  majority of people involved thought that it was improbable due to the
  necessity to preserve the compliance of hardware with ACPI 1.0. ]

This actually is a quite serious regression from 2.6.24.

Moreover, the ACPI 1.0 ordering of suspend code introduced another issue
that I have only noticed recently.  Namely, if the suspend of one of
devices fails, the already suspended devices will be resumed without
executing _WAK before, which leads to problems on some systems (for
example, in such situations thermal management is broken on my HP
nx6325).  Consequently, it also breaks suspend debugging on the affected
systems.

Note also, that the requirement to execute _PTS before suspending
devices does not really make sense, because the device in question may
be put into a low power state at run time for a reason unrelated to a
system-wide suspend.

For the reasons outlined above, the change of the suspend ordering
should be reverted, which is done by the patch below.

[ Felix Möller: "I am the reporter from the original Novell Bug:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374217

These messages are a regression compared with 2.6.24, which did not
flood the syslog with them.

The actual underlying problem was introduced in 2.6.23, when somebody
made the string parsing no longer accept nul-terminated strings as a
valid input to store_uevent().

Eg.  "add\0" was valid prior to 2.6.23, where the code regressed to
require "add" without the '\0'.

This patch fixes the 2.6.23 / 2.6.24 regressions, by having the code
once again tolerate the trailing '\0', if present.

According to GregKH, this mainly affects older Ubuntu systems, such as
the one I have here that requires this fix.

driver core: fix small mem leak in driver_add_kobj()

The Coverity checker spotted that we leak the storage allocated to 'name' in
int driver_add_kobj().  The leak looks legit to me - this is the code :

int driver_add_kobj(struct device_driver *drv, struct kobject *kobj,
                    const char *fmt, ...)
{
        va_list args;
        char *name;
        int ret;

        va_start(args, fmt);
        name = kvasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, fmt, args);
        ^^^^^^^^ This dynamically allocates space...

        va_end(args);

        if (!name)
                return -ENOMEM;

        return kobject_add(kobj, &drv->p->kobj, "%s", name);
^^^^^^^^ This neglects to free the space allocated
}

Inside kobject_add() a copy of 'name' will be made and used.  As far as I can
see, Coverity is correct in flagging this as a leak, but I'd like some
configmation before the patch is applied.

This should fix it.

If write requests need to be split into pieces, the code must not process them
in parallel because the crypto context cannot be shared.  So there can be
parallel crypto operations on one part of the write, but only one write bio
can be processed at a time.

This is not optimal and the workqueue code needs to be optimized for parallel

performance of synchronous crypto operation (most of current dm-crypt users).

#TEST_CASE_END

Attached patch:
- Add sanity check BUG_ON in order to prevent incorrect usage by caller,
  This is function invariant because page can has buffers and in no zero
  *fadata pointer at the same time.
- Always attach buffers to page is it is partial write case.
- Always switch back to generic_write_end if page has buffers.
  This is reasonable because if page already has buffer then generic_write_begin
  was called previously.

Because of a typo in iwch_accept_cr(), the cxgb3 connection handling
code programs the hardware IRD (incoming RDMA read queue depth) with
the value that is passed in for the ORD (outgoing RDMA read queue

> 0 and ORD = 0 (which is a completely sane and valid thing to do for

hardware will end up programmed with IRD = 0 and the app will fail in

16 years ago[POWERPC] Fix missed hardware breakpoints across multiple threads
Michael Ellerman [Fri, 28 Mar 2008 08:11:48 +0000 (19:11 +1100)] 
[POWERPC] Fix missed hardware breakpoints across multiple threads

There is a bug in the powerpc DABR (data access breakpoint) handling,
which can result in us missing breakpoints if several threads are trying
to break on the same address.

The circumstances are that do_page_fault() calls do_dabr(), this clears
the DABR (sets it to 0) and sets up the signal which will report to
userspace that the DABR was hit. The do_signal() code will restore the DABR
value on the way out to userspace.

If we reschedule before calling do_signal(), __switch_to() will check the
cached DABR value and compare it to the new thread's value, if they match
we don't set the DABR in hardware.

So if two threads have the same DABR value, and we schedule from one to
the other after taking the interrupt for the first thread hitting the DABR,
the second thread will run without the DABR set in hardware.

The cleanest fix is to move the cache update into set_dabr(), that way we
can't forget to do it.

16 years agoxen: fix RMW when unmasking events
Jeremy Fitzhardinge [Mon, 17 Mar 2008 23:36:52 +0000 (16:36 -0700)] 
xen: fix RMW when unmasking events

xen_irq_enable_direct and xen_sysexit were using "andw $0x00ff,
XEN_vcpu_info_pending(vcpu)" to unmask events and test for pending ones
in one instuction.

Unfortunately, the pending flag must be modified with a locked operation
since it can be set by another CPU, and the unlocked form of this
operation was causing the pending flag to get lost, allowing the processor
to return to usermode with pending events and ultimately deadlock.

The simple fix would be to make it a locked operation, but that's rather
costly and unnecessary.  The fix here is to split the mask-clearing and
pending-testing into two instructions; the interrupt window between
them is of no concern because either way pending or new events will
be processed.

This should fix lingering bugs in using direct vcpu structure access too.
