4221f980a4 [PATCH] bcm43xx: improved statistics
This patch improves the statistics returned from
bcm43xx_get_wireless_stats. The signal level comes from smoothing the
"rssi" value returned by the firmware after it is converted into a
dBm value by the driver. The quality value is a hack derived from the
smoothed level and an assumed RX_POWER_MAX of -10 dBM. The noise value
is still the one calculated from the clean-room formula. On my system,
this is roughly -65 dBm, which seems too high.

The revised version uses the ieee80211 spinlock to protect traversing
of the network list.

2087da5dc1 [PATCH] bcm43xx: voluntary preemtion in the calibration loops
This patch adds voluntary preemption points into the
PHY calibration loops to allow non-CONFIG_PREEMPT machines
to not suffer from huge delays.
CONFIG_PREEMPT machines are already fine, because all this
code is run in non-atomic process context.

26dab8930b [PKT_SCHED]: Fix illegal memory dereferences when dumping actions
The TCA_ACT_KIND attribute is used without checking its
availability when dumping actions therefore leading to a
value of 0x4 being dereferenced.

The use of strcmp() in tc_lookup_action_n() isn't safe
when fed with string from an attribute without enforcing
proper NUL termination.

Both bugs can be triggered with malformed netlink message

500530f652 [PATCH] libata: reimplement controller-wide PM
Reimplement controller-wide PM.  ata_host_set_suspend/resume() are
defined to suspend and resume a host_set.  While suspended, EHs for
all ports in the host_set are pegged using ATA_FLAG_SUSPENDED and
frozen.

Because SCSI device hotplug is done asynchronously against the rest of
libata EH and the same mutex is used when adding new device, suspend
cannot wait for hotplug to complete.  So, if SCSI device hotplug is in
progress, suspend fails with -EBUSY.

In most cases, host_set resume is followed by device resume.  As each
resume operation requires a reset, a single host_set-wide resume
operation may result in multiple resets.  To avoid this, resume waits
upto 1 second giving PM to request resume for devices.

d6f26d1f1f [PATCH] libata: reimplement per-dev PM
Reimplement per-dev PM.  The original implementation directly put the
device into suspended mode and didn't synchronize w/ EH operations
including hotplug.  This patch reimplements ata_scsi_device_suspend()
and ata_scsi_device_resume() such that they request EH to perform the
respective operations.  Both functions synchronize with hotplug such
that it doesn't operate on detached devices.

Suspend waits for completion but resume just issues request and
returns.  This allows parallel wake up of devices and thus speeds up
system resume.

Due to sdev detach synchronization, it's not feasible to separate out
EH requesting from sdev handling; thus, ata_device_suspend/resume()
are removed and everything is implemented in the respective
libata-scsi functions.

02670bf379 [PATCH] libata: implement PM EH actions
Implement two PM per-dev EH actions - ATA_EH_SUSPEND and
ATA_EH_RESUME.  Each action puts the target device into suspended mode
and resumes from it respectively.

Once a device is put to suspended mode, no EH operations other than
RESUME is allowed on the device.  The device will stay suspended till
it gets resumed and thus reset and revalidated.  To implement this, a
new device state helper - ata_dev_ready() - is implemented and used in
EH action implementations to make them operate only on attached &
running devices.

If all possible devices on a port are suspended, reset is skipped too.
This prevents spurious events including hotplug events from disrupting
suspended devices.

e9c839142d [PATCH] libata: clean up debounce parameters and improve parameter selection
The names of predefined debounce timing parameters didn't exactly
match their usages.  Rename to more generic names and implement param
selection helper sata_ehc_deb_timing() which uses EHI_HOTPLUGGED to
select params.

Combined with the previous EHI_RESUME_LINK differentiation, this makes
parameter selection accurate.  e.g. user scan resumes link but normal
deb param is used instead of hotplug param.

Implement ATA_EHI_RESUME_LINK, which indicates that the link needs to
be resumed.  This used to be implied by ATA_EHI_HOTPLUGGED.  However,
hotplug isn't the only event which requires link resume and separating
this out allows other places to request link resume.  This
differentiation also allows better debounce timing selection.

This patch converts user scan to use ATA_EHI_RESUME_LINK.

e30349d27e [PATCH] libata: replace ap_lock w/ ap->lock in ata_scsi_error()
ap_lock was used because &ap->host_set->lock was too long and used a
lot.  Now that &ap->host_set->lock is replaced with ap->lock, there's
no reason to keep ap_lock.

[ed. note: that's not entirely true.  ap_lock is a local variable,
caching the results of a de-ref.  In theory, if the compiler is smart
enough, this patch is cosmetic.  However, since this is not a fast
path (it is the error path), this patch is nonetheless acceptable,
even though it _may_ introduce a performance regression.]

this is caused because the ns83820 driver re-enables irq flags
in hardirq context.

While legal in theory, in practice it should only be done if the
hardware is really old and has some very high overhead in its ISR.
(such as PIO IDE)

For modern hardware, running ISRs with irqs enabled is discouraged,
because 1) new hardware is fast enough to not cause latency problems
2) allowing the nesting of hardware interrupts only 'spreads out'
the handling of the current ISR, causing extra cachemisses that would
otherwise not happen. Furthermore, on architectures where ISRs share
the kernel stacks, enabling interrupts in ISRs introduces a much
higher kernel-stack-nesting and thus kernel-stack-overflow risk.
3) not managing irq-flags via the _irqsave / _irqrestore variants
is dangerous: it's easy to forget whether one function nests inside
another, and irq flags might be mismanaged.

In the few cases where re-enabling interrupts in an ISR is considered
useful (and unavoidable), it has to be taught to the lock validator
explicitly (because the lock validator needs the "no ISR ever enables
hardirqs" artificial simplification to keep the IRQ/softirq locking
dependencies manageable).

This teaching is done via the explicit use local_irq_enable_in_hardirq().
On a stock kernel this maps to local_irq_enable(). If the lock validator
is enabled then this does not enable interrupts.

Now, the analysis of drivers/net/ns83820.c's irq flags use: the
irq-enabling in irq context seems intentional, but i dont think it's
justified. Furthermore, the driver suffers from problem #3 above too,
in ns83820_tx_timeout() it disables irqs via local_irq_save(), but
then it calls do_tx_done() which does a spin_unlock_irq(),
re-enabling for a function that does not expect it! While currently
this bug seems harmless (only some debug printout seems to be
affected by it), it's nevertheless something to be fixed.

So this patch makes the ns83820 ISR irq-flags-safe, and cleans up
do_tx_done() use and locking to avoid the ns83820_tx_timeout() bug.

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

  ns83820_mib_isr takes the misc_lock in IRQ context.  All other places that
  do this in the ISR already use _irqsave versions, make this consistent at
  least.  At some point in the future someone should audit the driver to see
  if all _irqsave's in the ISR can go away, this is generally an iffy/fragile
  proposition though; for now get it safe, simple and consistent.

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

ok this is a real driver deadlock:

The ns83820 driver enabled interrupts (by unlocking the misc_lock with
_irq) while still holding the rx_info.lock, which is required to be irq
safe since it's used in the ISR like this:
                writel(1, dev->base + IER);
                spin_unlock_irq(&dev->misc_lock);
                kick_rx(ndev);
                spin_unlock_irq(&dev->rx_info.lock);

This is can cause a deadlock if an irq was pending at the first
spin_unlock_irq already, or if one would hit during kick_rx().
Simply remove the first _irq solves this
