19bc5133da V4L/DVB (6601): V4L: videobuf-core locking fixes and comments
- Add comments to functions that require that caller hold q->lock
- Add __videobuf_mmap_free that doesn't hold q->lock for use within videobuf
- Add locking to videobuf_mmap_free
- Fix linux/drivers/media/common/saa7146_video.c which was holding lock around
  videobuf_read_stop
- Add locking to functions that operate on a queue
- Add videobuf_stop to take care of stopping in both the read and stream case

TODO: bttv still has an unsafe call to videobuf_queue_is_busy

522939d45c esp_scsi: fix reset cleanup spinlock recursion
The esp_reset_cleanup() function is called with the host lock held and
invokes starget_for_each_device() which wants to take it too.  Here is a
fix along the lines of shost_for_each_device()/__shost_for_each_device()
adding a __starget_for_each_device() counterpart which assumes the lock
has already been taken.

Eventually, I think the driver should get modified so that more work is
done as a softirq rather than in the interrupt context, but for now it
fixes a bug that causes the spinlock debugger to fire.

While at it, it fixes a small number of cosmetic problems with
starget_for_each_device() too.

da7ce6e2fe asm-h8300: parentheses around definition CLOCK_TICK_RATE
Some places where CLOCK_TICK_RATE may be used incorrectly:

arch/arm/mach-mx3/time.c:125:   __raw_writel((v / CLOCK_TICK_RATE) - 1, MXC_GPT_GPTPR);
drivers/watchdog/davinci_wdt.c:103:     timer_margin = (((u64)heartbeat * CLOCK_TICK_RATE) & 0xffffffff);

drivers/watchdog/ks8695_wdt.c:64:       unsigned long tval = wdt_time * CLOCK_TICK_RATE;

I'm not sure whether this definition is used there, but adding parentheses
should be good anyway.

6f6652be18 bonding: Add new layer2+3 hash for xor/802.3ad modes
Add new hash for balance-xor and 802.3ad modes.  Originally
 submitted by "Glenn Griffin" <ggriffin.kernel@gmail.com>; modified by
 Jay Vosburgh to move setting of hash policy out of line, tweak the
 documentation update and add version update to 3.2.2.

	Glenn's original comment follows:

Included is a patch for a new xmit_hash_policy for the bonding driver
that selects slaves based on MAC and IP information.  This is a middle
ground between what currently exists in the layer2 only policy and the
layer3+4 policy.  This policy strives to be fully 802.3ad compliant by
transmitting every packet of any particular flow over the same link.
As documented the layer3+4 policy is not fully compliant for extreme
cases such as ip fragmentation, so this policy is a nice compromise
for environments that require full compliance but desire more than the
layer2 only policy.

68ca3e537f [AVR32] Fix copy_to_user_page() breakage
The current implementation of copy_to_user_page() gives "vaddr" to the
cache instruction when trying to sync the icache with the dcache. If
vaddr does not exist in the TLB, the CPU will silently abort the
operation, which may result in the caches staying out of sync.

To fix this, pass the "dst" parameter to flush_icache_range() instead
-- we know this is valid because we just wrote to it.

2507bc1338 [AVR32] Follow the rules when dealing with the OCD system
The current debug trap handling code does a number of things that are
illegal according to the AVR32 Architecture manual. Most importantly,
it may try to schedule from Debug Mode, thus clearing the D bit, which
can lead to "undefined behaviour".

It seems like this works in most cases, but several people have
observed somewhat unstable behaviour when debugging programs,
including soft lockups. So there's definitely something which is not
right with the existing code.

The new code will never schedule from Debug mode, it will always exit
Debug mode with a "retd" instruction, and if something not running in
Debug mode needs to do something debug-related (like doing a single
step), it will enter debug mode through a "breakpoint" instruction.
The monitor code will then return directly to user space, bypassing
its own saved registers if necessary (since we don't actually care
about the trapped context, only the one that came before.)

This adds three instructions to the common exception handling code,
including one branch. It does not touch super-hot paths like the TLB
miss handler.

8dfe8f29cd [AVR32] Clean up OCD register usage
Generate a new set of OCD register definitions in asm/ocd.h and rename
__mfdr() and __mtdr() to ocd_read() and ocd_write() respectively.

The bitfield definitions are a lot more complete now, and they are
entirely based on bit numbers, not masks. This is because OCD
registers are frequently accessed from assembly code, where bit
numbers are a lot more useful (can be fed directly to sbr, bfins,
etc.)

Bitfields that consist of more than one bit have two definitions:
_START, which indicates the number of the first bit, and _SIZE, which
indicates the number of bits. These directly correspond to the
parameters taken by the bfextu, bfexts and bfins instructions.

81a3843f97 [POWERPC] Fix hardware IRQ time accounting problem.
The commit fa13a5a1f2 (sched: restore
deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc), unconditionally calls
update_process_tick() in system context.  In the deterministic
accounting case this is the correct thing to do.  However, in the
non-deterministic accounting case we need to not do this, since doing
this results in the time accounted as hardware irq time being
artificially elevated.

Also this collapses 2 consecutive '#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING'
checks in time.h into one for neatness.

5a622f2d0f proc: fix proc_dir_entry refcounting
Creating PDEs with refcount 0 and "deleted" flag has problems (see below).
Switch to usual scheme:
* PDE is created with refcount 1
* every de_get does +1
* every de_put() and remove_proc_entry() do -1
* once refcount reaches 0, PDE is freed.

This elegantly fixes at least two following races (both observed) without
introducing new locks, without abusing old locks, without spreading
lock_kernel():

1) PDE leak

remove_proc_entry			de_put
-----------------			------
			[refcnt = 1]
if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
						if (de->deleted)
							/* also not taken! */
							free_proc_entry(de);
else
	de->deleted = 1;
		[refcount=0, deleted=1]

2) use after free

remove_proc_entry			de_put
-----------------			------
			[refcnt = 1]

					if (atomic_dec_and_test(&de->count))
if (atomic_read(&de->count) == 0)
	free_proc_entry(de);
						/* boom! */
						if (de->deleted)
							free_proc_entry(de);

Also, remove broken usage of ->deleted from reiserfs: if sget() succeeds,
module is already pinned and remove_proc_entry() can't happen => nobody
can mark PDE deleted.

Dummy proc root in netns code is not marked with refcount 1. AFAICS, we
never get it, it's just for proper /proc/net removal. I double checked
CLONE_NETNS continues to work.

Patch survives many hours of modprobe/rmmod/cat loops without new bugs
which can be attributed to refcounting.

d4beaf4ab5 jbd: Fix assertion failure in fs/jbd/checkpoint.c
Before we start committing a transaction, we call
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() to cleanup transaction's written-back
buffers.

If this call happens to remove all of them (and there were already some
buffers), __journal_remove_checkpoint() will decide to free the transaction
because it isn't (yet) a committing transaction and soon we fail some
assertion - the transaction really isn't ready to be freed :).

We change the check in __journal_remove_checkpoint() to free only a
transaction in T_FINISHED state.  The locking there is subtle though (as
everywhere in JBD ;().  We use j_list_lock to protect the check and a
subsequent call to __journal_drop_transaction() and do the same in the end
of journal_commit_transaction() which is the only place where a transaction
can get to T_FINISHED state.

Probably I'm too paranoid here and such locking is not really necessary -
checkpoint lists are processed only from log_do_checkpoint() where a
transaction must be already committed to be processed or from
__journal_clean_checkpoint_list() where kjournald itself calls it and thus
transaction cannot change state either.  Better be safe if something
changes in future...

ce6bd420f4 futex: fix for futex_wait signal stack corruption
David Holmes found a bug in the -rt tree with respect to
pthread_cond_timedwait. After trying his test program on the latest git
from mainline, I found the bug was there too.  The bug he was seeing
that his test program showed, was that if one were to do a "Ctrl-Z" on a
process that was in the pthread_cond_timedwait, and then did a "bg" on
that process, it would return with a "-ETIMEDOUT" but early. That is,
the timer would go off early.

Looking into this, I found the source of the problem. And it is a rather
nasty bug at that.

Here's the relevant code from kernel/futex.c: (not in order in the file)

[...]
smlinkage long sys_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val,
                          struct timespec __user *utime, u32 __user *uaddr2,
                          u32 val3)
{
        struct timespec ts;
        ktime_t t, *tp = NULL;
        u32 val2 = 0;
        int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK;

        if (utime && (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT || cmd == FUTEX_LOCK_PI)) {
                if (copy_from_user(&ts, utime, sizeof(ts)) != 0)
                        return -EFAULT;
                if (!timespec_valid(&ts))
                        return -EINVAL;

                t = timespec_to_ktime(ts);
                if (cmd == FUTEX_WAIT)
                        t = ktime_add(ktime_get(), t);
                tp = &t;
        }
[...]
        return do_futex(uaddr, op, val, tp, uaddr2, val2, val3);
}

[...]

long do_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val, ktime_t *timeout,
                u32 __user *uaddr2, u32 val2, u32 val3)
{
        int ret;
        int cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK;
        struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL;

        if (!(op & FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG))
                fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem;

        switch (cmd) {
        case FUTEX_WAIT:
                ret = futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, timeout);

[...]

static int futex_wait(u32 __user *uaddr, struct rw_semaphore *fshared,
                      u32 val, ktime_t *abs_time)
{
[...]
               struct restart_block *restart;
                restart = &current_thread_info()->restart_block;
                restart->fn = futex_wait_restart;
                restart->arg0 = (unsigned long)uaddr;
                restart->arg1 = (unsigned long)val;
                restart->arg2 = (unsigned long)abs_time;
                restart->arg3 = 0;
                if (fshared)
                        restart->arg3 |= ARG3_SHARED;
                return -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK;
[...]

static long futex_wait_restart(struct restart_block *restart)
{
        u32 __user *uaddr = (u32 __user *)restart->arg0;
        u32 val = (u32)restart->arg1;
        ktime_t *abs_time = (ktime_t *)restart->arg2;
        struct rw_semaphore *fshared = NULL;

        restart->fn = do_no_restart_syscall;
        if (restart->arg3 & ARG3_SHARED)
                fshared = &current->mm->mmap_sem;
        return (long)futex_wait(uaddr, fshared, val, abs_time);
}

So when the futex_wait is interrupt by a signal we break out of the
hrtimer code and set up or return from signal. This code does not return
back to userspace, so we set up a RESTARTBLOCK.  The bug here is that we
save the "abs_time" which is a pointer to the stack variable "ktime_t t"
from sys_futex.

This returns and unwinds the stack before we get to call our signal. On
return from the signal we go to futex_wait_restart, where we update all
the parameters for futex_wait and call it. But here we have a problem
where abs_time is no longer valid.

I verified this with print statements, and sure enough, what abs_time
was set to ends up being garbage when we get to futex_wait_restart.

The solution I did to solve this (with input from Linus Torvalds)
was to add unions to the restart_block to allow system calls to
use the restart with specific parameters.  This way the futex code now
saves the time in a 64bit value in the restart block instead of storing
it on the stack.

Note: I'm a bit nervious to add "linux/types.h" and use u32 and u64
in thread_info.h, when there's a #ifdef __KERNEL__ just below that.
Not sure what that is there for.  If this turns out to be a problem, I've
tested this with using "unsigned int" for u32 and "unsigned long long" for
u64 and it worked just the same. I'm using u32 and u64 just to be
consistent with what the futex code uses.

621544eb8c [LRO]: fix lro_gen_skb() alignment
Add a field to the lro_mgr struct so that drivers can specify how much
padding is required to align layer 3 headers when a packet is copied
into a freshly allocated skb by inet_lro.c:lro_gen_skb().  Without
padding, skbs generated by LRO will cause alignment warnings on
architectures which require strict alignment (seen on sparc64).

Myri10GE is updated to use this field.

7cd94146cd Security: round mmap hint address above mmap_min_addr
If mmap_min_addr is set and a process attempts to mmap (not fixed) with a
non-null hint address less than mmap_min_addr the mapping will fail the
security checks.  Since this is just a hint address this patch will round
such a hint address above mmap_min_addr.

gcj was found to try to be very frugal with vm usage and give hint addresses
in the 8k-32k range.  Without this patch all such programs failed and with
the patch they happily get a higher address.

This patch is wrappad in CONFIG_SECURITY since mmap_min_addr doesn't exist
without it and there would be no security check possible no matter what.  So
we should not bother compiling in this rounding if it is just a waste of
time.

This patch implement phy device's release function, thus
we're getting rid of this badness.

Also small hidden bug fixed, hope none other introduced. ;-)

c86c7fbc82 x86: disable hpet on shutdown
If HPET was enabled by pci quirks, we use i8253 as initial clockevent
because pci quirks doesn't run until pci is initialized.

The above means the kernel (or something) is assuming HPET legacy
replacement is disabled and can use i8253 at boot.

If we used kexec, it isn't true. So, this patch disables HPET legacy
replacement for kexec in machine_shutdown().

d842de871c sched: cpu accounting controller (V2)
Commit cfb5285660 removed a useful feature for
us, which provided a cpu accounting resource controller.  This feature would be
useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt
really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption.

The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's
original patch (Commit 62d0df6406), with
these differences:

        - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp
	  to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for
	  2.6.25 after more discussions.
        - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs
	  stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler
	  classes
	- Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage
	  counter to be per-cpu
	- Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the
	  code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly
	  needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing
	  rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in
	  kernel/sched.c)

The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting
information.

Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

 Tested the patches on top of 2.6.24-rc3. The patches work fine. Ran
 some simple tests like cpuspin (spin on the cpu), ran several tasks in
 the same group and timed them. Compared their time stamps with
 cpuacct.usage.

2b1e300a9d [NETNS]: Fix /proc/net breakage
Well I clearly goofed when I added the initial network namespace support
for /proc/net.  Currently things work but there are odd details visible to
user space, even when we have a single network namespace.

Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just
modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the
network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the
current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method.

To accomplish that this patch:
- introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to
  be returned from proc_lookup.
- Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic
- Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries.

As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can
go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code
that uses the shadow_proc method.
