Change prototypes for __chk_user_ptr and __chk_io_ptr to take const void* instead of void*, so that code can pass "const void *" to them. (Right now sparse does not warn about passing const void* to void* functions, but that is a separate bug that I believe Josh is working on, and once sparse does check this, the changed prototypes will be necessary.)

It was found that the Toshiba laptops with hidden Intel SMBus have SMM code handling the thermal management which accesses the SMBus. Thus it is not safe to unhide it and let Linux access it. We have to leave the SMBus hidden. SMM is a pain, really. This fixes bugs #6315 and #6395, for good this time.

IDE error recovery is using IDLE IMMEDIATE if the drive is busy or has DRQ set. This violates the ATA spec (can only send IDLE IMMEDIATE when drive is not busy) and really hoses up some drives (modern drives will not be able to recover using this error handling). The correct thing to do is issue a SRST followed by a SET FEATURES command. This is what Western Digital recommends for error recovery and what Western Digital says Windows does.  It also does not violate the ATA spec as far as I can tell. Bart: * port the patch over the current tree * undo the recalibration code removal * send SET FEATURES command after checking for good drive status * don't check whether the current request is of REQ_TYPE_ATA_{CMD,TASK} type because we need to send SET FEATURES before handling any requests * some pre-ATA4 drives require INITIALIZE DEVICE PARAMETERS command before other commands (except IDENTIFY) so send SET FEATURES only if there are no pending drive->special requests * update comments and patch description * any bugs introduced by this patch are mine and not Suleiman's :-) Signed-off-by: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Acked-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

[ bart: the ressurection of 2 years old patch which slipped thru the cracks (thanks to Sergei Shtylyov for finding it) ] These is the patch to turn on pdc202xx_new for ATAPI DMA. When testing, it works fine without the (request_bufflen % 256) workaround as needed in libata. ide-scsi filters out (pc->request_transfer % 1024) and use PIO, so the pdc202xx ATAPI DMA problem is avoid. Both ide-cd and ide-scsi won't hit the ATAPI DMA problem on pdc202xx_new. Signed-off-by: Albert Lee <albertcc@tw.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

Since especially Serial ATA has it's own menu point now, I guess we can change the description of the deprecated SATA driver as well, since the new libATA subsystem is not configured through a SCSI low-level driver anymore, but has it's own menu point.

Since hwif->ide_dma_check and hwif->ide_dma_on never queue any commands (ide_config_drive_speed() sets transfer mode using polling and has no error recovery) we are safe with setting hwgroup->busy for the time while DMA setting for a drive is changed (so it won't race against I/O commands in fly). I audited briefly all ->ide_dma_check/->ide_dma_on/->tuneproc/->speedproc implementations and they all look OK wrt to this change. This patch finally allowed me to close kernel bugzilla bug #8169 (once again thanks to Patrick Horn for reporting the issue & testing patches).

"ide: fix drive side 80c cable check, take 2" patch from Tejun Heo (commit fab59375) fixed 80c bit test (bit13 of word93) but we also need to fix master/slave IDENTIFY order (slave device should be probed first in order to make it release PDIAG- signal) and we should also check for pre-ATA3 slave devices (which may not release PDIAG- signal). [ Unfortunately the fact that IDE driver doesn't reset devices itself helps only a bit as it seems that some BIOS-es reset ATA devices after programming the chipset, some BIOS-es can be set to not probe/configure selected devices, there may be no BIOS in case of add-on cards etc. ] Since we are quite late in the release cycle and the required changes will affect a lot of systems just revert the fix for now. [ Please also see libata commit f31f0cc2. ] Thanks goes out to Fernando Mitio Yamada for reporting the problem and patiently testing patches.

Thomas Gleixner authored
The watchdog implementation excludes low res / non continuous clocksources from being selected as a watchdog reference unintentionally. Allow using jiffies/PIT as a watchdog reference as long as no better clocksource is available. This is necessary to detect TSC breakage on systems, which have no pmtimer/hpet. The main goal of the initial patch (preventing to switch to highres/nohz when no reliable fallback clocksource is available) is still guaranteed by the checks in clocksource_watchdog().

The rework of next_timer_interrupt() fixed the timer wheel bugs, but invented a rounding error versus the next hrtimer event. This is caused by the conversion of the hrtimer internal representation to relative jiffies. This causes bug #8100: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8100 next_timer_interrupt() returns "now" in such a case and causes the code in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to trigger the timer softirq, which is bogus as no timer is due for expiry. This results in an endless context switching between idle and ksoftirqd until a timer is due for expiry. Modify the hrtimer evaluation so that, it returns now + 1, when the conversion results in a delta < 1 jiffie.

It has been reported by Julian Deng that configuring the pxa27x i2c SCL line as output generates a short negative pulse on it during the call to pxa_gpio_mode(GPIO117_I2CSCL_MD); as it first switches it to output and then configures it for the alternate function. The SCL line is in fact bidirectional and can also be configured as 117 | GPIO_ALT_FN_1_IN, in which case the pulse is not generated. This is exactly what this patch does.

commit f9690982 removed the check for cpu_khz from sched_clock(), which prevented early access to the TSC by non obvious magic. This is harmless as long as the CPU has a TSC. On TSCless systems this results in an illegal instruction trap. Replace tsc_disabled and tsc_unstable by tsc_enabled, which is only set when the tsc is available and not unstable.

Ray Lee reported, that on an UP kernel with "noapic" command line option set, the box locks hard during boot. Adding some debug printks revealed, that the last action on the box before stalling was "Send IPI" - a debug printk which was put into smp_send_timer_broadcast_ipi(). It seems that send_IPI_mask(mask, LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR) fails when "noapic" is set on the command line on an UP kernel. Aside of that it does not make much sense to trigger an interrupt instead of calling the function directly on the CPU which gets the PIT/HPET interrupt in case of broadcasting.

The segment register slots in struct pt_regs are padded to 32 bits. Some of these are stored with instructions like "pushl %es", which leaves the high 16 bits as they were. So the high bits of these fields in struct pt_regs contain kernel stack garbage. These bits are ignored by everything and never leak to user space, except in core dumps. The user struct pt_regs is always at the base of the thread's kernel stack and so it seems unlikely the information that leaks from here is ever worthwhile so as to be a security concern, but I'm not sure about that. It has been this way for ages; userland consumers of core dumps all mask off these high bits themselves. So it is not urgent. This change masks off the padding bits of the segment register slots in core dumps. ptrace already masks off these high bits, so this makes the values in core dumps consistent with what ptrace would report just before the process died. As I read the processor manuals, the cs and ss values will always be padded with zero bits rather than stack garbage. But unlike "pushl %es", this is not simple to test with a userland program. So I added the two instructions rather than wonder if they are really never necessary. I think that x86_64 does not have this problem (for either 32-bit or 64-bit processes). It only uses "mov" instructions from segment registers, which zero-extend. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
