commit e99ddfde upstream. Commit 88a8516a (ALSA: usbaudio: implement USB autosuspend) added autosuspend code to all files making up the snd-usb-audio driver. However, midi.c is part of snd-usb-lib and is also used by other drivers, not all of which support autosuspend. Thus, calls to usb_autopm_get_interface() could fail, and this unexpected error would result in the MIDI output being completely unusable. Make it work by ignoring the error that is expected with drivers that do not support autosuspend.

commit 10226238 upstream. In 32 bit the stack address provided by kernel_stack_pointer() may point to an invalid range causing NULL pointer access or page faults while in NMI (see trace below). This happens if called in softirq context and if the stack is empty. The address at ®s->sp is then out of range. Fixing this by checking if regs and ®s->sp are in the same stack context. Otherwise return the previous stack pointer stored in struct thread_info. If that address is invalid too, return address of regs.

commit 47ea91b4 upstream. __find_resource() incorrectly returns a resource window which overlaps an existing allocated window. This happens when the parent's resource-window spans 0x00000000 to 0xffffffff and is entirely allocated to all its children resource-windows. __find_resource() looks for gaps in resource allocation among the children resource windows. When it encounters the last child window it blindly tries the range next to one allocated to the last child. Since the last child's window ends at 0xffffffff the calculation overflows, leading the algorithm to believe that any window in the range 0x0000000 to 0xfffffff is available for allocation. This leads to a conflicting window allocation. Michal Ludvig reported this issue seen on his platform. The following patch fixes the problem and has been verified by Michal. I believe this bug has been there for ages.

commit 2bbc6942 upstream. Currently pci-bridges are allocated enough resources to satisfy their immediate requirements. Any additional resource-requests fail if additional free space, contiguous to the one already allocated, is not available. This behavior is not reasonable since sufficient contiguous resources, that can satisfy the request, are available at a different location. This patch provides the ability to expand and relocate a allocated resource. v2: Changelog: Fixed size calculation in pci_reassign_resource() v3: Changelog : Split this patch.

commit 399f11c3 upstream. Currently, we will schedule session recovery and then return to the caller of nfs4_handle_exception. This works for most cases, but causes a hang on the following test case: Client Server ------ ------ Open file over NFS v4.1 Write to file Expire client Try to lock file The server will return NFS4ERR_BADSESSION, prompting the client to schedule recovery. However, the client will continue placing lock attempts and the open recovery never seems to be scheduled. The simplest solution is to wait for session recovery to run before retrying the lock.

commit a9193983 upstream. The overlay on the i830M has a peculiar failure mode: It works the first time around after boot-up, but consistenly hangs the second time it's used. Chris Wilson has dug out a nice errata: "1.5.12 Clock Gating Disable for Display Register Address Offset: 06200h–06203h "Bit 3 Ovrunit Clock Gating Disable. 0 = Clock gating controlled by unit enabling logic 1 = Disable clock gating function DevALM Errata ALM049: Overlay Clock Gating Must be Disabled: Overlay & L2 Cache clock gating must be disabled in order to prevent device hangs when turning off overlay.SW must turn off Ovrunit clock gating (6200h) and L2 Cache clock gating (C8h)." Now I've nowhere found that 0xc8 register and hence couldn't apply the l2 cache workaround. But I've remembered that part of the magic that the OVERLAY_ON/OFF commands are supposed to do is to rearrange cache allocations so that the overlay scaler has some scratch space. And while pondering how that could explain the hang the 2nd time we enable the overlay, I've remembered that the old ums overlay code did _not_ issue the OVERLAY_OFF cmd. And indeed, disabling the OFF cmd results in the overlay working flawlessly, so I guess we can workaround the lack of the above workaround by simply never disabling the overlay engine once it's enabled. Note that we have the first part of the above w/a already implemented in i830_init_clock_gating - leave that as-is to avoid surprises. v2: Add a comment in the code.

commit 069ddcda upstream. When the eCryptfs mount options do not include '-o acl', but the lower filesystem's mount options do include 'acl', the MS_POSIXACL flag is not flipped on in the eCryptfs super block flags. This flag is what the VFS checks in do_last() when deciding if the current umask should be applied to a newly created inode's mode or not. When a default POSIX ACL mask is set on a directory, the current umask is incorrectly applied to new inodes created in the directory. This patch ignores the MS_POSIXACL flag passed into ecryptfs_mount() and sets the flag on the eCryptfs super block depending on the flag's presence on the lower super block. Additionally, it is incorrect to allow a writeable eCryptfs mount on top of a read-only lower mount. This missing check did not allow writes to the read-only lower mount because permissions checks are still performed on the lower filesystem's objects but it is best to simply not allow a rw mount on top of ro mount. However, a ro eCryptfs mount on top of a rw mount is valid and still allowed. https://launchpad.net/bugs/1009207Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Reported-by: Stefan Beller <stefanbeller@googlemail.com> Cc: John Johansen <john.johansen@canonical.com> Cc: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski <herton.krzesinski@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit b1e0d8b7 upstream. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

commit aee77e4a upstream. The r8169 driver currently limits the DMA burst for TX to 1024 bytes. I have a box where this prevents the interface from using the gigabit line to its full potential. This patch solves the problem by setting TX_DMA_BURST to unlimited. The box has an ASRock B75M motherboard with on-board RTL8168evl/8111evl (XID 0c900880). TSO is enabled. I used netperf (TCP_STREAM test) to measure the dependency of TX throughput on MTU. I did it for three different values of TX_DMA_BURST ('5'=512, '6'=1024, '7'=unlimited). This chart shows the results: http://michich.fedorapeople.org/r8169/r8169-effects-of-TX_DMA_BURST.png Interesting points: - With the current DMA burst limit (1024): - at the default MTU=1500 I get only 842 Mbit/s. - when going from small MTU, the performance rises monotonically with increasing MTU only up to a peak at MTU=1076 (908 MBit/s). Then there's a sudden drop to 762 MBit/s from which the throughput rises monotonically again with further MTU increases. - With a smaller DMA burst limit (512): - there's a similar peak at MTU=1076 and another one at MTU=564. - With unlimited DMA burst: - at the default MTU=1500 I get nice 940 Mbit/s. - the throughput rises monotonically with increasing MTU with no strange peaks. Notice that the peaks occur at MTU sizes that are multiples of the DMA burst limit plus 52. Why 52? Because: 20 (IP header) + 20 (TCP header) + 12 (TCP options) = 52 The Realtek-provided r8168 driver (v8.032.00) uses unlimited TX DMA burst too, except for CFG_METHOD_1 where the TX DMA burst is set to 512 bytes. CFG_METHOD_1 appears to be the oldest MAC version of "RTL8168B/8111B", i.e. RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_11 in r8169. Not sure if this MAC version really needs the smaller burst limit, or if any other versions have similar requirements.

[ Upstream commit 0c9f79be ] (1<<optname) is undefined behavior in C with a negative optname or optname larger than 31. In those cases the result of the shift is not necessarily zero (e.g., on x86). This patch simplifies the code with a switch statement on optname. It also allows the compiler to generate better code (e.g., using a 64-bit mask).

commit 34fa78b5 upstream. The sigaddset/sigdelset/sigismember functions that are implemented with bitfield insn cannot allow the sigset argument to be placed in a data register since the sigset is wider than 32 bits. Remove the "d" constraint from the asm statements. The effect of the bug is that sending RT signals does not work, the signal number is truncated modulo 32.

commit d55c4c61 upstream. When walking page tables we need to make sure that everything is within bounds of the ASCE limit of the task's address space. Otherwise we might calculate e.g. a pud pointer which is not within a pud and dereference it. So check against TASK_SIZE (which is the ASCE limit) before walking page tables.
