Lockdep found an inconsistent lock state when joining a mesh with ath5k. The problem is that ath5k takes the lock for its beacon state, ah->block, with spin_lock_irqsave(), while mesh internally takes the sync_offset_lock with spin_lock_bh() in mesh_sync_offset_adjust_tbtt(), which in turn is called under ah->block. This could deadlock if the beacon tasklet was run on the processor that held the beacon lock during the do_softirq() in spin_unlock_bh(). We probably shouldn't hold the lock around the callbacks, but the easiest fix is to switch to spin_lock_bh for ah->block: it doesn't need interrupts disabled anyway as the data in question is only accessed in softirq or process context. Fixes the following lockdep warning: [ 446.892304] WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:159 _local_bh_enable_ip+0x38/0xa6() [ 446.892306] Hardware name: MacBook1,1 [ 446.892309] Modules linked in: tcp_lp fuse sunrpc cpufreq_ondemand acpi_cpufreq mperf ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 nf_conntrack_ipv4 ip6table_filter nf_defrag_ipv4 xt_state nf_conntrack ip6_tables ext2 arc4 btusb bluetooth snd_hda_codec_idt snd_hda_intel carl9170 snd_hda_codec coretemp joydev ath5k snd_hwdep snd_seq isight_firmware ath snd_seq_device snd_pcm applesmc appletouch mac80211 input_polldev snd_timer microcode cfg80211 snd lpc_ich pcspkr i2c_i801 mfd_core soundcore rfkill snd_page_alloc sky2 tpm_infineon virtio_net kvm_intel kvm i915 drm_kms_helper drm i2c_algo_bit i2c_core video [ 446.892385] Pid: 1892, comm: iw Not tainted 3.6.0-rc1-wl+ #296 [ 446.892387] Call Trace: [ 446.892394] [<c0432958>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7c/0x91 [ 446.892398] [<c04399d7>] ? _local_bh_enable_ip+0x38/0xa6 [ 446.892403] [<c04399d7>] ? _local_bh_enable_ip+0x38/0xa6 [ 446.892459] [<f7f9ae3b>] ? mesh_sync_offset_adjust_tbtt+0x95/0x99 [mac80211] [ 446.892464] [<c043298f>] warn_slowpath_null+0x22/0x24 [ 446.892468] [<c04399d7>] _local_bh_enable_ip+0x38/0xa6 [ 446.892473] [<c0439a52>] local_bh_enable_ip+0xd/0xf [ 446.892479] [<c088004f>] _raw_spin_unlock_bh+0x34/0x37 [ 446.892527] [<f7f9ae3b>] mesh_sync_offset_adjust_tbtt+0x95/0x99 [mac80211] [ 446.892569] [<f7f7650f>] ieee80211_beacon_get_tim+0x28f/0x4e0 [mac80211] [ 446.892575] [<c047ceeb>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x10e/0x13f [ 446.892591] [<f7fdc541>] ath5k_beacon_update+0x40/0x26b [ath5k] [ 446.892597] [<c047ad67>] ? lock_acquired+0x1f5/0x21e [ 446.892612] [<f7fdf9fb>] ? ath5k_bss_info_changed+0x167/0x1b2 [ath5k] [ 446.892617] [<c087f9ea>] ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x78/0x82 [ 446.892632] [<f7fdf9fb>] ? ath5k_bss_info_changed+0x167/0x1b2 [ath5k] [ 446.892647] [<f7fdfa09>] ath5k_bss_info_changed+0x175/0x1b2 [ath5k] [ 446.892651] [<c0479dd4>] ? lock_is_held+0x73/0x7b [ 446.892662] [<c0458fd5>] ? __might_sleep+0xa7/0x17a [ 446.892698] [<f7f5d8f7>] ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify+0x1ed/0x21a [mac80211] [ 446.892703] [<c0449875>] ? queue_work+0x24/0x32 [ 446.892718] [<f7fdf894>] ? ath5k_configure_filter+0x163/0x163 [ath5k] [ 446.892766] [<f7f95fa4>] ieee80211_start_mesh+0xb9/0xbd [mac80211] [ 446.892806] [<f7f6e610>] ieee80211_join_mesh+0x10c/0x116 [mac80211] [ 446.892834] [<f7a96b90>] __cfg80211_join_mesh+0x176/0x1b3 [cfg80211] [ 446.892855] [<f7a96c1c>] cfg80211_join_mesh+0x4f/0x6a [cfg80211] [ 446.892875] [<f7a89891>] nl80211_join_mesh+0x1de/0x1ed [cfg80211] [ 446.892908] [<f7a8db99>] ? nl80211_set_wiphy+0x4cf/0x4cf [cfg80211] [ 446.892919] [<c07cfa36>] genl_rcv_msg+0x1d5/0x1f3 [ 446.892940] [<c07cf861>] ? genl_rcv+0x25/0x25 [ 446.892946] [<c07cf009>] netlink_rcv_skb+0x37/0x78 [ 446.892950] [<c07cf85a>] genl_rcv+0x1e/0x25 [ 446.892955] [<c07cebf3>] netlink_unicast+0xc3/0x12d [ 446.892959] [<c07cee46>] netlink_sendmsg+0x1e9/0x213 [ 446.892966] [<c079f282>] sock_sendmsg+0x79/0x96 [ 446.892972] [<c04eb90d>] ? might_fault+0x9d/0xa3 [ 446.892978] [<c07a81d8>] ? copy_from_user+0x8/0xa [ 446.892983] [<c07a852c>] ? verify_iovec+0x43/0x77 [ 446.892987] [<c079f4d8>] __sys_sendmsg+0x180/0x215 [ 446.892993] [<c045f107>] ? sched_clock_cpu+0x134/0x144 [ 446.892997] [<c047992f>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 446.893002] [<c047bf88>] ? __lock_acquire+0x46b/0xb6e [ 446.893006] [<c047992f>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 446.893010] [<c045f149>] ? local_clock+0x32/0x49 [ 446.893015] [<c0479ec1>] ? lock_release_holdtime.part.9+0x4b/0x51 [ 446.893020] [<c0479dd4>] ? lock_is_held+0x73/0x7b [ 446.893025] [<c050d127>] ? fcheck_files+0x97/0xcd [ 446.893029] [<c050d4df>] ? fget_light+0x2d/0x81 [ 446.893034] [<c07a01f3>] sys_sendmsg+0x3b/0x52 [ 446.893038] [<c07a07b4>] sys_socketcall+0x238/0x2a2 [ 446.893044] [<c0885edf>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x38 [ 446.893047] ---[ end trace a9af5998f929270f ]--- [ 447.627222] [ 447.627232] ================================= [ 447.627237] [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] [ 447.627244] 3.6.0-rc1-wl+ #296 Tainted: G W [ 447.627248] --------------------------------- [ 447.627253] inconsistent {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-SOFTIRQ-W} usage.

ath_rx_tasklet() calls ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess() and ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess() in a loop over the received frames. The decrypt_error flag is initialized to false just outside ath_rx_tasklet() loop. ath9k_rx_accept(), called by ath9k_rx_skb_preprocess(), only sets decrypt_error to true and never to false. Then ath_rx_tasklet() calls ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess() and passes decrypt_error to it. So, after a decryption error, in ath9k_rx_skb_postprocess(), we can have a leftover value from another processed frame. In that case, the frame will not be marked with RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED even if it is decrypted correctly. When using CCMP encryption this issue can lead to connection stuck because of CCMP PN corruption and a waste of CPU time since mac80211 tries to decrypt an already deciphered frame with ieee80211_aes_ccm_decrypt. Fix the issue initializing decrypt_error flag at the begging of the ath_rx_tasklet() loop.

bfe4c041 "leds: convert Renesas TPU LED driver to devm_kzalloc() and cleanup error exit path" introduced a possible case in which r_tpu_probe calls iounmap on a wild pointer. This changes the one case that was missed in the same way as the other error paths.

Here's a quote of the comment about the BUG macro from asm-generic/bug.h: Don't use BUG() or BUG_ON() unless there's really no way out; one example might be detecting data structure corruption in the middle of an operation that can't be backed out of. If the (sub)system can somehow continue operating, perhaps with reduced functionality, it's probably not BUG-worthy. If you're tempted to BUG(), think again: is completely giving up really the *only* solution? There are usually better options, where users don't need to reboot ASAP and can mostly shut down cleanly. In our case, the status flag of a ring buffer slot is managed from both sides, the kernel space and the user space. This means that even though the kernel side might work as expected, the user space screws up and changes this flag right between the send(2) is triggered when the flag is changed to TP_STATUS_SENDING and a given skb is destructed after some time. Then, this will hit the BUG macro. As David suggested, the best solution is to simply remove this statement since it cannot be used for kernel side internal consistency checks. I've tested it and the system still behaves /stable/ in this case, so in accordance with the above comment, we should rather remove it.

While tracking down a weird buffer overflow issue in a program that looked to be sane, I started double checking the length returned by syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, ...) to make sure it wasn't overflowing the buffer. Sure enough, it was. I saw this in strace: 11339 syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, "<5>[244017.708129] REISERFS (dev"..., 8192) = 8279 It turns out that the loops that calculate how much space the entries will take when they're copied don't include the newlines and prefixes that will be included in the final output since prev flags is passed as zero. This patch properly accounts for it and fixes the overflow. CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

One condition before codel_Newton_step() was not good if we never left the dropping state for a flow. As a result rec_inv_sqrt was 0, instead of the ~0 initial value. codel control law was then set to a very aggressive mode, dropping many packets before reaching 'target' and recovering from this problem. To keep codel_vars_init() as efficient as possible, refine the condition to make sure rec_inv_sqrt initial value is correct Many thanks to Anton Mich for discovering the issue and suggesting a fix.

John W. Linville says: ==================== Here is a handful of fixes intended for 3.6. Daniel Drake offers a cfg80211 fix to consume pending events before taking a wireless device down. This prevents a resource leak. Stanislaw Gruszka gives us a fix for a NULL pointer dereference in rt61pci. Johannes Berg provides an iwlwifi patch to disable "greenfield" mode. Use of that mode was causing a rate scaling problem in for iwlwifi. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

commit b74713d0 "ath9k: Handle fatal interrupts properly" introduced a race condition, where IRQs are being left enabled, however the irq handler returns IRQ_HANDLED while the reset is still queued without addressing the IRQ cause. This leads to an IRQ storm that prevents the system from even getting to the reset code. Fix this by disabling IRQs in the handler without touching intr_ref_cnt.

ntosd2_init_i2c walks the ntosd2_i2c_info array, which it expects to be populated with at least one member. gcc correctly warns about the out-of-bounds access here. Since this can not possibly work, it's better to disable i2c support entirely on this board.

These patches all fix bugs that were newly introduced in v3.6-rc1 and found because they cause a gcc warning with one of the ARM defconfigs.

omap_rng_suspend and omap_rng_resume are unused if CONFIG_PM is enabled but CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is disabled. I found this while building all defconfig files on ARM. It's not clear to me if this is the right solution, but at least it makes the code consistent again.

The newly added gpio-em driver marks its em_gio_irq_domain_cleanup function as __devexit, which would lead to that function being discarded in case CONFIG_HOTPLUG is disabled. However, the function is also called by the error handling logic em_gio_probe, which would cause a jump into a NULL pointer if it was removed from the kernel or module. Without this patch, building kzm9d_defconfig results in: WARNING: drivers/gpio/built-in.o(.devinit.text+0x330): Section mismatch in reference from the function em_gio_probe() to the function .devexit.text:em_gio_irq_domain_cleanup() The function __devinit em_gio_probe() references a function __devexit em_gio_irq_domain_cleanup(). This is often seen when error handling in the init function uses functionality in the exit path. The fix is often to remove the __devexit annotation of em_gio_irq_domain_cleanup() so it may be used outside an exit section.

exynos_pm_add_dev_to_genpd is used if one or more out of a large number of Kconfig symbols are enabled. However the new exynos_defconfig selects none of those, so the function becomes unused. Marking it so lets the compiler automatically discard it.
