      powerpc: Fix device-tree matching for Apple U4 bridge · 16fa42af
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      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.

      bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' a little earlier · b0f84374
      wangyanqing authored
      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 ]

      bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' to the end of do_basic_setup() · d5767c53
      Linus Torvalds authored
      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.

      block: Free queue resources at blk_release_queue() · 777eb1bf
      Hannes Reinecke authored
      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(),

      iwlagn: fix dangling scan request · 6c80c39d
      Johannes Berg authored
      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.

      PM / Clocks: Do not acquire a mutex under a spinlock · e8b364b8
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      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 root cause was an EEH error, which sent us down the offload_close path in
      the cxgb3 driver, which in turn sets cdev->l2opt to NULL, without regard for
      upper layer driver (like the cxgbi drivers) which might have execution contexts
      in the middle of its use. 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.
      
      This has been tested by the reporter and shown to fix the reproted oops

      Before clearing the probing flag in the error exit path, check that the
      chip pointer is not NULL.
