commit 2af276df upstream. Following execution of a signal handler, we currently restore the VFP context from the ucontext in the signal frame. This involves copying from the user stack into the current thread's vfp_hard_struct and then flushing the new data out to the hardware registers. This is problematic when using a preemptible kernel because we could be context switched whilst updating the vfp_hard_struct. If the current thread has made use of VFP since the last context switch, the VFP notifier will copy from the hardware registers into the vfp_hard_struct, overwriting any data that had been partially copied by the signal code. Disabling preemption across copy_from_user calls is a terrible idea, so instead we move the VFP thread flush *before* we update the vfp_hard_struct. Since the flushing is performed lazily, this has the effect of disabling VFP and clearing the CPU's VFP state pointer, therefore preventing the thread from being updated with stale data on the next context switch.

commit b5bcc189 upstream. Since the dynamic pin power-control and the analog low-current mode may lead to pop-noise, it's safer to set it off as default.

commit e9d010c2 upstream. VIA codecs have several different power-saving features, and one of them is the analog low-current mode. But it turned out that the ALC mode causes pop-noises at each on/off time on some machines. As a quick workaround, disable the ALC when another power-saving feature, the dynamic pin power-control, is turned off, too, since the dynamic power-control is already exposed as a mixer enum element so that user can turn it on/off freely.

commit f70eecde upstream. If cs_automic is called twice (like it is during init) while the mic is present, it will over-write the last_input with the new one, causing it to switch back to the automic input when the mic is unplugged. This leaves the driver in a state (cur_input, last_input, and automix_idx the same) where the internal mic can not be selected until it is rebooted without the mic attached. Check that the mic hasn't already been switched to before setting last_input.

commit 31150f23 upstream. It turned out that other ASUS laptops require the similar fix to enable the VREF on the pin 0x0f for the secret output amp, not only ASUS A6Rp. Moreover, it's required even when the pin is being used as the output. Thus, writing a fixed value doesn't work always. This patch applies the VREF-fix for all ASUS laptops with ALC861/660 in a fixup function that checks the current value and turns on only the VREF value no matter whether input or output direction is set. The automute function is modified as well to keep the pin VREF upon muting/unmuting via pin-control; otherwise the pin VREF is reset at plugging/unplugging a jack.

commit 3deaa719 upstream. Herbert Poetzl reported a performance regression since 2.6.39. The test is a simple dd read, but with big block size. The reason is: T1: ra (A, A+128k), (A+128k, A+256k) T2: lock_page for page A, submit the 256k T3: hit page A+128K, ra (A+256k, A+384). the range isn't submitted because of plug and there isn't any lock_page till we hit page A+256k because all pages from A to A+256k is in memory T4: hit page A+256k, ra (A+384, A+ 512). Because of plug, the range isn't submitted again. T5: lock_page A+256k, so (A+256k, A+512k) will be submitted. The task is waitting for (A+256k, A+512k) finish. There is no request to disk in T3 and T4, so readahead pipeline breaks. We really don't need block plug for generic_file_aio_read() for buffered I/O. The readahead already has plug and has fine grained control when I/O should be submitted. Deleting plug for buffered I/O fixes the regression. One side effect is plug makes the request size 256k, the size is 128k without it. This is because default ra size is 128k and not a reason we need plug here. Vivek said: : We submit some readahead IO to device request queue but because of nested : plug, queue never gets unplugged. When read logic reaches a page which is : not in page cache, it waits for page to be read from the disk : (lock_page_killable()) and that time we flush the plug list. : : So effectively read ahead logic is kind of broken in parts because of : nested plugging. Removing top level plug (generic_file_aio_read()) for : buffered reads, will allow unplugging queue earlier for readahead.

commit 3c076351 upstream. Right now we forcibly clear ASPM state on all devices if the BIOS indicates that the feature isn't supported. Based on the Microsoft presentation "PCI Express In Depth for Windows Vista and Beyond", I'm starting to think that this may be an error. The implication is that unless the platform grants full control via _OSC, Windows will not touch any PCIe features - including ASPM. In that case clearing ASPM state would be an error unless the platform has granted us that control. This patch reworks the ASPM disabling code such that the actual clearing of state is triggered by a successful handoff of PCIe control to the OS. The general ASPM code undergoes some changes in order to ensure that the ability to clear the bits isn't overridden by ASPM having already been disabled. Further, this theoretically now allows for situations where only a subset of PCIe roots hand over control, leaving the others in the BIOS state. It's difficult to know for sure that this is the right thing to do - there's zero public documentation on the interaction between all of these components. But enough vendors enable ASPM on platforms and then set this bit that it seems likely that they're expecting the OS to leave them alone. Measured to save around 5W on an idle Thinkpad X220.

commit 7f482fc8 upstream. This fix changes the way baudrates are set on the CP210x devices from Silicon Labs. The CP2101/2/3 will respond to both a GET/SET_BAUDDIV command, and GET/SET_BAUDRATE command, while CP2104 and higher devices only respond to GET/SET_BAUDRATE. The current cp210x.ko driver in kernel version 3.2.0 only implements the GET/SET_BAUDDIV command. This patch implements the two new codes for the GET/SET_BAUDRATE commands. Then there is a change in the way that the baudrate is assigned or retrieved. This is done according to the CP210x USB specification in AN571. This document can be found here: http://www.silabs.com/pages/DownloadDoc.aspx?FILEURL=Support%20Documents/TechnicalDocs/AN571.pdf&src=DocumentationWebPart Sections 5.3/5.4 describe the USB packets for the old baudrate method. Sections 5.5/5.6 describe the USB packets for the new method. This patch also implements the new request scheme, and eliminates the unnecessary baudrate calculations since it uses the "actual baudrate" method. This patch solves the problem reported for the CP2104 in bug 42586, and also keeps support for all other devices (CP2101/2/3). This patchfile is also attached to the bug report on bugzilla.kernel.org. This patch has been developed and test on the 3.2.0 mainline kernel version under Ubuntu 10.11.

[ Upstream commit 5b35e1e6 ] This commit fixes tcp_trim_head() to recalculate the number of segments in the skb with the skb's existing MSS, so trimming the head causes the skb segment count to be monotonically non-increasing - it should stay the same or go down, but not increase. Previously tcp_trim_head() used the current MSS of the connection. But if there was a decrease in MSS between original transmission and ACK (e.g. due to PMTUD), this could cause tcp_trim_head() to counter-intuitively increase the segment count when trimming bytes off the head of an skb. This violated assumptions in tcp_tso_acked() that tcp_trim_head() only decreases the packet count, so that packets_acked in tcp_tso_acked() could underflow, leading tcp_clean_rtx_queue() to pass u32 pkts_acked values as large as 0xffffffff to ca_ops->pkts_acked(). As an aside, if tcp_trim_head() had really wanted the skb to reflect the current MSS, it should have called tcp_set_skb_tso_segs() unconditionally, since a decrease in MSS would mean that a single-packet skb should now be sliced into multiple segments.

[ Upstream commit 68315801 ] When a packet is received on an L2TP IP socket (L2TPv3 IP link encapsulation), the l2tpip socket's backlog_rcv function calls xfrm4_policy_check(). This is not necessary, since it was called before the skb was added to the backlog. With CONFIG_NET_NS enabled, xfrm4_policy_check() will oops if skb->dev is null, so this trivial patch removes the call. This bug has always been present, but only when CONFIG_NET_NS is enabled does it cause problems. Most users are probably using UDP encapsulation for L2TP, hence the problem has only recently surfaced.

[ Upstream commit b924551b ] bond_alb_init_slave() is called from bond_enslave() and sets the slave's MAC address. This is done differently for TLB and ALB modes. bond->alb_info.rlb_enabled is used to discriminate between the two modes but this flag may be uninitialized if the slave is being enslaved prior to calling bond_open() -> bond_alb_initialize() on the master. It turns out all the callers of alb_set_slave_mac_addr() pass bond->alb_info.rlb_enabled as the hw parameter. This patch cleans up the unnecessary parameter of alb_set_slave_mac_addr() and makes the function decide based on the bonding mode instead, which fixes the above problem.

[ Upstream commit 6f01fd6e ] Commit 0884d7aa (AF_UNIX: Fix poll blocking problem when reading from a stream socket) added a regression for epoll() in Edge Triggered mode (EPOLLET) Appropriate fix is to use skb_peek()/skb_unlink() instead of skb_dequeue(), and only call skb_unlink() when skb is fully consumed. This remove the need to requeue a partial skb into sk_receive_queue head and the extra sk->sk_data_ready() calls that added the regression. This is safe because once skb is given to sk_receive_queue, it is not modified by a writer, and readers are serialized by u->readlock mutex. This also reduce number of spinlock acquisition for small reads or MSG_PEEK users so should improve overall performance.

[ Upstream commit 8a8ee9af ] caif is a subsystem and as such it needs to register with register_pernet_subsys instead of register_pernet_device. Among other problems using register_pernet_device was resulting in net_generic being called before the caif_net structure was allocated. Which has been causing net_generic to fail with either BUG_ON's or by return NULL pointers. A more ugly problem that could be caused is packets in flight why the subsystem is shutting down. To remove confusion also remove the cruft cause by inappropriately trying to fix this bug. With the aid of the previous patch I have tested this patch and confirmed that using register_pernet_subsys makes the failure go away as it should. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

This also reduces number of reallocations in net_assign_generic() Reported-by: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com> Tested-by: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: Sjur Brændeland <sjur.brandeland@stericsson.com> Cc: Eric W.

commit 15699e6f upstream. The probe does not strictly require the USB_CDC_DMM_TYPE descriptor, which is a good thing as it makes the driver usable on non-conforming interfaces. A user could e.g. bind to it to a CDC ECM interface by using the new_id and bind sysfs files. But this would fail with a 0 buffer length due to the missing descriptor. Fix by defining a reasonable fallback size: The minimum device receive buffer size required by the CDC WMC standard, revision 1.1 Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 655e247d upstream. As it turns out, there was a mismatch between the allocated inbuf size (desc->bMaxPacketSize0, typically something like 64) and the length we specified in the URB (desc->wMaxCommand, typically something like 2048) Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Cc: Oliver Neukum <oliver@neukum.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
