Apple Quad G5 has some oddity in it's device-tree which causes the new generic matching code to fail to relate nodes for PCI-E devices below U4 with their respective struct pci_dev. This breaks graphics on those machines among others. This fixes it using a quirk which copies the node pointer from the host bridge for the root complex, which makes the generic code work for the children afterward.

Commit d5767c53 ("bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' to the end of do_basic_setup()") moved 'usermodehelper_enable()' to end of do_basic_setup() to after the initcalls. But then I get failed to let uvesafb work on my computer, and lose the splash boot. So maybe we could start usermodehelper_enable a little early to make some task work that need eary init with the help of user mode. [ I would *really* prefer that initcalls not call into user space - even the real 'init' hasn't been execve'd yet, after all! But for uvesafb it really does look like we don't have much choice. I considered doing this when we mount the root filesystem, but depending on config options that is in multiple places. We could do the usermode helper enable as a rootfs_initcall().. So I'm just using wang yanqing's trivial patch. It's not wonderful, but it's simple and should work. We should revisit this some day, though. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Doing it just before starting to call into cpu_idle() made a sick kind of sense only because the original bug we fixed (see commit 288d5abe: "Boot up with usermodehelper disabled") was about problems with some scheduler data structures not being initialized, and they had better be initialized at that point. But it really didn't make any other conceptual sense, and doing it after the initial "schedule()" call for the idle thread actually opened up a race: what if the main initialization thread did everything without needing to sleep, and got all the way into user land too? Without actually having scheduled back to the idle thread? Now, in normal circumstances that doesn't ever happen, but it looks like Richard Cochran triggered exactly that on his ARM IXP4xx machines: "I have some ARM IXP4xx based machines that use the two on chip MAC ports (aka NPEs). The NPE needs a firmware in order to function. Ever since the following commit [that 288d5abe one], it is no longer possible to bring up the interfaces during the init scripts." with a call trace showing an ioctl coming from user space. Richard says: "The init is busybox, and the startup script does mount, syslogd, and then ifup, so that all can go by quickly." The fix is to move the usermodehelper_enable() into the main 'init' thread, and just put it after we've done all our initcalls. By then, everything really should be up, but we've obviously not actually started the user-mode portion of init yet.

A kernel crash is observed when a mounted ext3/ext4 filesystem is physically removed. The problem is that blk_cleanup_queue() frees up some resources eg by calling elevator_exit(), which are not checked for in normal operation. So we should rather move these calls to the destructor function blk_release_queue() as at that point all remaining references are gone. However, in doing so we have to ensure that any externally supplied queue_lock is disconnected as the driver might free up the lock after the call of blk_cleanup_queue(), Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

That flag no longer makes sense, since we don't look up automount points as eagerly any more. Additionally, it turns out that the NO_AUTOMOUNT handling was buggy to begin with: it would avoid automounting even for cases where we really *needed* to do the automount handling, and could return ENOENT for autofs entries that hadn't been instantiated yet. With our new non-eager automount semantics, one discussion has been about adding a AT_AUTOMOUNT flag to vfs_fstatat (and thus the newfstatat() and fstatat64() system calls), but it's probably not worth it: you can always force at least directory automounting by simply adding the final '/' to the filename, which works for *all* of the stat family system calls, old and new. So AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT (and thus LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT) really were just a result of our bad default behavior.

Currently the the internal oscillator is powered down when entering BIAS_OFF state, but not re-enabled when going back to BIAS_STANDBY. As a result the CODEC will stop working after suspend if the internal oscillator is used to generate the sysclock signal. This patch fixes it by clearing the appropriate bit in the power down register when the CODEC is re-enabled.

The concensus seems to be that system calls such as stat() etc should not trigger an automount. Neither should the l* versions. This patch therefore adds a LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag to tag those lookups that _should_ trigger an automount on the last path element. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> [ Edited to leave out the cases that are already covered by LOOKUP_OPEN, LOOKUP_DIRECTORY and LOOKUP_CREATE - all of which also fundamentally force automounting for their own reasons - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Linus Torvalds authored
Since we've now turned around and made LOOKUP_FOLLOW *not* force an automount, we want to add the ability to force an automount event on lookup even if we don't happen to have one of the other flags that force it implicitly (LOOKUP_OPEN, LOOKUP_DIRECTORY, LOOKUP_PARENT..) Most cases will never want to use this, since you'd normally want to delay automounting as long as possible, which usually implies LOOKUP_OPEN (when we open a file or directory, we really cannot avoid the automount any more). But Trond argued sufficiently forcefully that at a minimum bind mounting a file and quotactl will want to force the automount lookup. Some other cases (like nfs_follow_remote_path()) could use it too, although LOOKUP_DIRECTORY would work there as well. This commit just adds the flag and logic, no users yet, though. It also doesn't actually touch the LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag that is related, and was made irrelevant by the same change that made us not follow on LOOKUP_FOLLOW.

If iwl_scan_initiate() fails for any reason, priv->scan_request and priv->scan_vif are left dangling. This can lead to a crash later when iwl_bg_scan_completed() tries to run a pending scan request. In practice, this seems to be very rare due to the STATUS_SCANNING check earlier. That check, however, is wrong -- it should allow a scan to be queued when a reset/roc scan is going on. When a normal scan is already going on, a new one can't be issued by mac80211, so that code can be removed completely. I introduced this bug when adding off-channel support in commit 266af4c7.

Commit b7ab83ed (PM: Use spinlock instead of mutex in clock management functions) introduced a regression causing clocks_mutex to be acquired under a spinlock. This happens because pm_clk_suspend() and pm_clk_resume() call pm_clk_acquire() under pcd->lock, but pm_clk_acquire() executes clk_get() which causes clocks_mutex to be acquired. Similarly, __pm_clk_remove(), executed under pcd->lock, calls clk_put(), which also causes clocks_mutex to be acquired. To fix those problems make pm_clk_add() call pm_clk_acquire(), so that pm_clk_suspend() and pm_clk_resume() don't have to do that. Change pm_clk_remove() and pm_clk_destroy() to separate modifications of the pcd->clock_list list from the actual removal of PM clock entry objects done by __pm_clk_remove().

Following reports on the list, it looks like the 3e-9xxx driver will leak dma mappings every time we get a transient queueing error back from the card. This is because it maps the sg list in the routine that sends the command, but doesn't unmap again in the transient failure path (even though the command is sent back to the block layer). Fix by unmapping before returning the status.

The result is the oops above, when t3_l2t_get attempts to dereference L2DATA(cdev)->nentries in arp_hash right after the EEH error handler sets it to NULL. The fix is to prevent the setting of the NULL pointer until after there are no further users of it. The t3cdev->l2opt pointer is now converted to be an rcu pointer and the L2DATA macro is now called under the protection of the rcu_read_lock(). When the EEH error path: t3_adapter_error->offload_close->cxgb3_offload_deactivate Is exectured, setting of that l2opt pointer to NULL, is now gated on an rcu quiescence point, preventing, allowing L2DATA callers to safely check for a NULL pointer without concern that the underlying data will be freeded before the pointer is dereferenced.
