Since checkin ebba638a we call verify_cpu even in 32-bit mode. Unfortunately, calling a function means using the stack, and the stack pointer was not initialized in the 32-bit setup code! This code initializes the stack pointer, and simplifies the interface slightly since it is easier to rely on just a pointer value rather than a descriptor; we need to have different values for the segment register anyway. This retains start_stack as a virtual address, even though a physical address would be more convenient for 32 bits; the 64-bit code wants the other way around...

In get_empty_filp() since 2.6.29, file_free(f) is called with f->f_cred == NULL when security_file_alloc() returned an error. As a result, kernel will panic() due to put_cred(NULL) call within RCU callback. Fix this bug by assigning f->f_cred before calling security_file_alloc().

Some experiment-based action to prevent my 8168 chipsets locking-up hard in the irq handler under load (pktgen ~1Mpps). Apparently a reset is not always mandatory (is it at all ?). - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_12 - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_25 Missed ~55% packets. Note: - this is an old SiS 965L motherboard - the 8168 chipset emits (lots of) control frames towards the sender - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_26 The chipset does not go into a frenzy of mac control pause when it crashes yet but it can still be crashed.

I found that one of the 8168c chipsets (concretely XID 1c4000c0) starts generating RxFIFO overflow errors. The result is an infinite loop in interrupt handler as the RxFIFOOver is handled only for ...MAC_VER_11. With the workaround everything goes fine.

As reported by Flavio Leitner, there is no synchronization to protect NIU's get_stats method from seeing a NULL pointer in either np->rx_rings or np->tx_rings. In fact, as far as ->ndo_get_stats is concerned, these values are set completely asynchronously. Flavio attempted to fix this using a RW semaphore, which in fact works most of the time. However, dev_get_stats() can be invoked from non-sleepable contexts in some cases, so this fix doesn't work in all cases. So instead, control the visibility of the np->{rx,tx}_ring pointers when the device is being brough up, and use properties of the device down sequence to our advantage. In niu_get_stats(), return immediately if netif_running() is false. The device shutdown sequence first marks the device as not running (by clearing the __LINK_STATE_START bit), then it performans a synchronize_rcu() (in dev_deactive_many()), and then finally it invokes the driver ->ndo_stop() method. This guarentees that all invocations of niu_get_stats() either see netif_running() as false, or they see the channel pointers before ->ndo_stop() clears them out. If netif_running() is true, protect against startup races by loading the np->{rx,tx}_rings pointer into a local variable, and punting if it is NULL. Use ACCESS_ONCE to prevent the compiler from reloading the pointer on us. Also, during open, control the order in which the pointers and the ring counts become visible globally using SMP write memory barriers. We make sure the np->num_{rx,tx}_rings value is stable and visible before np->{rx,tx}_rings is. Such visibility control is not necessary on the niu_free_channels() side because of the RCU sequencing that happens during device down as described above. We are always guarenteed that all niu_get_stats calls are finished, or will see netif_running() false, by the time ->ndo_stop is invoked.

Some BIOSs (eg. the AMI BIOS on the Asus P4P800 motherboard) don't initialise the GART address, and pcibios_assign_resources() can ignore it because it can be marked as a host bridge (see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24392#c5 for details). This was handled correctly up to 2.6.35, but the pci_enable_device() cleanup in 2.6.36 96576a9e ("agp: intel-agp: do not use PCI resources before pci_enable_device()") means that the kernel tries to enable the GART before assigning it an address; in such cases the GART overlaps with other device assignments and ends up being disabled. This patch fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24392 Note that I imagine efficeon-agp.c probably has the same problem, but I can't test that and I'd like to make sure this patch is suitable for -stable (since 2.6.36 and 2.6.37 are affected).

This reverts commit f191f144. The AMD 751 and 761 chipsets are used on the UP1000, UP1100, and UP1500 OEM motherboards, but they neglect to do anything to make AGP work. According to Ivan Kokshaysky: There is quite fundamental conflict between the Alpha architecture and x86 AGP implementation - Alpha is entirely cache coherent by design, while x86 AGP is not (I mean native AGP DMA transactions, not a PCI over AGP). There are no such things as non-cacheable mappings or software support for cache flushing/invalidation on Alpha, so x86 AGP code won't work on Nautilus. So there's no point in allowing this driver to be configured on Alpha. Signed-off-by: Matt Turner <mattst88@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

Currently the error handling in hfsplus_fill_super is a mess, and can lead to accessing fields in the superblock that haven't been even set up yet. Fix this by making sure we do not set up sb->s_root until we have the mount fully set up, and before that do proper step by step unwinding instead of using hfsplus_put_super as a big hammer.

Clearing the cpu in prev's mm_cpumask early will avoid the flush tlb IPI's while the cr3 is still pointing to the prev mm. And this window can lead to the possibility of bogus TLB fills resulting in strange failures. One such problematic scenario is mentioned below. T1. CPU-1 is context switching from mm1 to mm2 context and got a NMI etc between the point of clearing the cpu from the mm_cpumask(mm1) and before reloading the cr3 with the new mm2. T2. CPU-2 is tearing down a specific vma for mm1 and will proceed with flushing the TLB for mm1. It doesn't send the flush TLB to CPU-1 as it doesn't see that cpu listed in the mm_cpumask(mm1). T3. After the TLB flush is complete, CPU-2 goes ahead and frees the page-table pages associated with the removed vma mapping. T4. CPU-2 now allocates those freed page-table pages for something else. T5. As the CR3 and TLB caches for mm1 is still active on CPU-1, CPU-1 can potentially speculate and walk through the page-table caches and can insert new TLB entries. As the page-table pages are already freed and being used on CPU-2, this page walk can potentially insert a bogus global TLB entry depending on the (random) contents of the page that is being used on CPU-2. T6. This bogus TLB entry being global will be active across future CR3 changes and can result in weird memory corruption etc. To avoid this issue, for the prev mm that is handing over the cpu to another mm, clear the cpu from the mm_cpumask(prev) after the cr3 is changed. Marking it for -stable, though we haven't seen any reported failure that can be attributed to this.
