commit cb297a3e upstream. This issue happens under the following conditions: 1. preemption is off 2. __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW is defined 3. RT scheduling class 4. SMP system Sequence is as follows: 1.suppose current task is A. start schedule() 2.task A is enqueued pushable task at the entry of schedule() __schedule prev = rq->curr; ... put_prev_task put_prev_task_rt enqueue_pushable_task 4.pick the task B as next task. next = pick_next_task(rq); 3.rq->curr set to task B and context_switch is started. rq->curr = next; 4.At the entry of context_swtich, release this cpu's rq->lock. context_switch prepare_task_switch prepare_lock_switch raw_spin_unlock_irq(&rq->lock); 5.Shortly after rq->lock is released, interrupt is occurred and start IRQ context 6.try_to_wake_up() which called by ISR acquires rq->lock try_to_wake_up ttwu_remote rq = __task_rq_lock(p) ttwu_do_wakeup(rq, p, wake_flags); task_woken_rt 7.push_rt_task picks the task A which is enqueued before. task_woken_rt push_rt_tasks(rq) next_task = pick_next_pushable_task(rq) 8.At find_lock_lowest_rq(), If double_lock_balance() returns 0, lowest_rq can be the remote rq. (But,If preemption is on, double_lock_balance always return 1 and it does't happen.) push_rt_task find_lock_lowest_rq if (double_lock_balance(rq, lowest_rq)).. 9.find_lock_lowest_rq return the available rq. task A is migrated to the remote cpu/rq. push_rt_task ... deactivate_task(rq, next_task, 0); set_task_cpu(next_task, lowest_rq->cpu); activate_task(lowest_rq, next_task, 0); 10. But, task A is on irq context at this cpu. So, task A is scheduled by two cpus at the same time until restore from IRQ. Task A's stack is corrupted. To fix it, don't migrate an RT task if it's still running. Signed-off-by:

commit 1b619250 upstream. The value of this register is transferred to the V_COUNTER register at the beginning of vertical blank. V_COUNTER is the reference for VLINE waits and goes from VIEWPORT_Y_START to VIEWPORT_Y_START+VIEWPORT_HEIGHT during scanout, so if VIEWPORT_Y_START is not 0, V_COUNTER actually went backwards at the beginning of vertical blank, and VLINE waits excluding the whole scanout area could never finish (possibly only if VIEWPORT_Y_START is larger than the length of vertical blank in scanlines). Setting DESKTOP_HEIGHT to the framebuffer height should prevent this for any kind of VLINE wait. Fixes https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45329 . Signed-off-by:

commit d020283d upstream. Looks like change "PM QoS: Move and rename the implementation files" merged during the 3.2 development cycle made PM QoS depend on CONFIG_PM which depends on (PM_SLEEP || PM_RUNTIME). That breaks CPU C-states with kernels not having these CONFIGs, causing CPUs to spend time in Polling loop idle instead of going into deep C-states, consuming way way more power. This is with either acpi idle or intel idle enabled. Either CONFIG_PM should be enabled with any pm_qos users or the !CONFIG_PM pm_qos_request() should return sane defaults not to break the existing users. Here's is the patch for the latter option.

commit 181e9bde upstream. Commit 2aede851 PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory introduced a mechanism by which kernel threads were frozen after the preallocation of hibernate image memory to avoid problems with frozen kernel threads not responding to memory freeing requests. However, it overlooked the s2disk code path in which the SNAPSHOT_CREATE_IMAGE ioctl was run directly after SNAPSHOT_FREE, which caused freeze_workqueues_begin() to BUG(), because it saw that worqueues had been already frozen. Although in principle this issue might be addressed by removing the relevant BUG_ON() from freeze_workqueues_begin(), that would reintroduce the very problem that commit 2aede851 attempted to avoid into that particular code path. For this reason, to fix the issue at hand, introduce thaw_kernel_threads() and make the SNAPSHOT_FREE ioctl execute it. Special thanks to Srivatsa S. Bhat for detailed analysis of the problem.

mm: compaction: check pfn_valid when entering a new MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block during isolation for migration commit 0bf380bc upstream. When isolating for migration, migration starts at the start of a zone which is not necessarily pageblock aligned. Further, it stops isolating when COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX pages are isolated so migrate_pfn is generally not aligned. This allows isolate_migratepages() to call pfn_to_page() on an invalid PFN which can result in a crash. This was originally reported against a 3.0-based kernel with the following trace in a crash dump.

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 01c00008 IP: [<c0522399>] isolate_migratepages+0x119/0x390 *pdpt = 000000002f7ce001 *pde = 0000000000000000 It is expected that it also affects 3.2.x and current mainline. The problem is that pfn_valid is only called on the first PFN being checked and that PFN is not necessarily aligned. Lets say we have a case like this H = MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundary | = pageblock boundary m = cc->migrate_pfn f = cc->free_pfn o = memory hole H------|------H------|----m-Hoooooo|ooooooH-f----|------H The migrate_pfn is just below a memory hole and the free scanner is beyond the hole. When isolate_migratepages started, it scans from migrate_pfn to migrate_pfn+pageblock_nr_pages which is now in a memory hole. It checks pfn_valid() on the first PFN but then scans into the hole where there are not necessarily valid struct pages. This patch ensures that isolate_migratepages calls pfn_valid when necessary.

commit 99f02ef1 upstream. Fix a race condition that shows in conjunction with xip_file_fault() when two threads of the same user process fault on the same memory page. In this case, the race winner will install the page table entry and the unlucky loser will cause an oops: xip_file_fault calls vm_insert_pfn (via vm_insert_mixed) which drops out at this check: retval = -EBUSY; if (!pte_none(*pte)) goto out_unlock; The resulting -EBUSY return value will trigger a BUG_ON() in xip_file_fault. This fix simply considers the fault as fixed in this case, because the race winner has successfully installed the pte.

commit e47e321a upstream. We have just been investigating kernel panics related to cq->ibcq.event_handler() completion calls. The problem is that ib_destroy_qp() fails with -EBUSY. Further investigation revealed qp->usecnt is not initialized. This counter was introduced in linux-3.2 by commit 0e0ec7e0 ("RDMA/core: Export ib_open_qp() to share XRC TGT QPs") but it only gets initialized for IB_QPT_XRC_TGT, but it is checked in ib_destroy_qp() for any QP type. Fix this by initializing qp->usecnt for every QP we create. Signed-off-by:

commit a6f7feae upstream. In the current code, vendor-specific MADs (e.g with the FDR-10 attribute) are silently dropped by the driver, resulting in timeouts at the sending side and inability to query/configure the relevant feature. However, the ConnectX firmware is able to handle such MADs. For unsupported attributes, the firmware returns a GET_RESPONSE MAD containing an error status. For example, for a FDR-10 node with LID 11: # ibstat mlx4_0 1 CA: 'mlx4_0' Port 1: State: Active Physical state: LinkUp Rate: 40 (FDR10) Base lid: 11 LMC: 0 SM lid: 24 Capability mask: 0x02514868 Port GUID: 0x0002c903002e65d1 Link layer: InfiniBand Extended Port Query (EPI) vendor mad timeouts before the patch: # smpquery MEPI 11 -d ibwarn: [4196] smp_query_via: attr 0xff90 mod 0x0 route Lid 11 ibwarn: [4196] _do_madrpc: retry 1 (timeout 1000 ms) ibwarn: [4196] _do_madrpc: retry 2 (timeout 1000 ms) ibwarn: [4196] _do_madrpc: timeout after 3 retries, 3000 ms ibwarn: [4196] mad_rpc: _do_madrpc failed; dport (Lid 11) smpquery: iberror: [pid 4196] main: failed: operation EPI: ext port info query failed EPI query works OK with the patch: # smpquery MEPI 11 -d ibwarn: [6548] smp_query_via: attr 0xff90 mod 0x0 route Lid 11 ibwarn: [6548] mad_rpc: data offs 64 sz 64 mad data 0000 0000 0000 0001 0000 0001 0000 0001 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 # Ext Port info: Lid 11 port 0 StateChangeEnable:...............0x00 LinkSpeedSupported:..............0x01 LinkSpeedEnabled:................0x01 LinkSpeedActive:.................0x01 Signed-off-by:

commit 6d08f2c7 upstream. Once /proc/pid/mem is opened, the memory can't be released until mem_release() even if its owner exits. Change mem_open() to do atomic_inc(mm_count) + mmput(), this only pins mm_struct. Change mem_rw() to do atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_count) before access_remote_vm(), this verifies that this mm is still alive. I am not sure what should mem_rw() return if atomic_inc_not_zero() fails. With this patch it returns zero to match the "mm == NULL" case, may be it should return -EINVAL like it did before e268337d. Perhaps it makes sense to add the additional fatal_signal_pending() check into the main loop, to ensure we do not hold this memory if the target task was oom-killed. Signed-off-by:

This is because of the setting of the KD_FONT_FLAG_OLD flag, which makes con_font_get return EIO in such case.

commit 8130b9d7 upstream. If we are context switched whilst copying into a thread's vfp_hard_struct then the partial copy may be corrupted by the VFP context switching code (see "ARM: vfp: flush thread hwstate before restoring context from sigframe"). This patch updates the ptrace VFP set code so that the thread state is flushed before the copy, therefore disabling VFP and preventing corruption from occurring. Signed-off-by:

commit 247f4993 upstream. In a preemptible kernel, vfp_set() can be preempted, causing the hardware VFP context to be switched while the thread vfp state is being read and modified. This leads to a race condition which can cause the thread vfp state to become corrupted if lazy VFP context save occurs due to preemption in between the time thread->vfpstate is read and the time the modified state is written back. This may occur if preemption occurs during the execution of a ptrace() call which modifies the VFP register state of a thread. Such instances should be very rare in most realistic scenarios -- none has been reported, so far as I am aware. Only uniprocessor systems should be affected, since VFP context save is not currently lazy in SMP kernels. The problem was introduced by my earlier patch migrating to use regsets to implement ptrace. This patch does a vfp_sync_hwstate() before reading thread->vfpstate, to make sure that the thread's VFP state is not live in the hardware registers while the registers are modified. Thanks to Will Deacon for spotting this. Signed-off-by:

commit 2af276df upstream. Following execution of a signal handler, we currently restore the VFP context from the ucontext in the signal frame. This involves copying from the user stack into the current thread's vfp_hard_struct and then flushing the new data out to the hardware registers. This is problematic when using a preemptible kernel because we could be context switched whilst updating the vfp_hard_struct. If the current thread has made use of VFP since the last context switch, the VFP notifier will copy from the hardware registers into the vfp_hard_struct, overwriting any data that had been partially copied by the signal code. Disabling preemption across copy_from_user calls is a terrible idea, so instead we move the VFP thread flush *before* we update the vfp_hard_struct. Since the flushing is performed lazily, this has the effect of disabling VFP and clearing the CPU's VFP state pointer, therefore preventing the thread from being updated with stale data on the next context switch.

commit b5bcc189 upstream. Since the dynamic pin power-control and the analog low-current mode may lead to pop-noise, it's safer to set it off as default. Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=741128Signed-off-by:

commit 54c2a89f upstream. This typo caused the wrong codec's nid to be checked for wcaps type. As a result, sometimes speakers would duplicate the output sent to HDMI output. BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924320Signed-off-by:

commit e9d010c2 upstream. VIA codecs have several different power-saving features, and one of them is the analog low-current mode. But it turned out that the ALC mode causes pop-noises at each on/off time on some machines. As a quick workaround, disable the ALC when another power-saving feature, the dynamic pin power-control, is turned off, too, since the dynamic power-control is already exposed as a mixer enum element so that user can turn it on/off freely.

commit f70eecde upstream. If cs_automic is called twice (like it is during init) while the mic is present, it will over-write the last_input with the new one, causing it to switch back to the automic input when the mic is unplugged. This leaves the driver in a state (cur_input, last_input, and automix_idx the same) where the internal mic can not be selected until it is rebooted without the mic attached. Check that the mic hasn't already been switched to before setting last_input. Signed-off-by:

commit 31150f23 upstream. It turned out that other ASUS laptops require the similar fix to enable the VREF on the pin 0x0f for the secret output amp, not only ASUS A6Rp. Moreover, it's required even when the pin is being used as the output. Thus, writing a fixed value doesn't work always. This patch applies the VREF-fix for all ASUS laptops with ALC861/660 in a fixup function that checks the current value and turns on only the VREF value no matter whether input or output direction is set. The automute function is modified as well to keep the pin VREF upon muting/unmuting via pin-control; otherwise the pin VREF is reset at plugging/unplugging a jack.

commit a389d67c upstream. The user reports that he needs to add model=auto for audio to work properly. In fact, since node 0x15 is not even a pin node, the existing fixup is definitely wrong.

commit 3deaa719 upstream. Herbert Poetzl reported a performance regression since 2.6.39. The test is a simple dd read, but with big block size. The reason is: T1: ra (A, A+128k), (A+128k, A+256k) T2: lock_page for page A, submit the 256k T3: hit page A+128K, ra (A+256k, A+384). the range isn't submitted because of plug and there isn't any lock_page till we hit page A+256k because all pages from A to A+256k is in memory T4: hit page A+256k, ra (A+384, A+ 512). Because of plug, the range isn't submitted again. T5: lock_page A+256k, so (A+256k, A+512k) will be submitted. The task is waitting for (A+256k, A+512k) finish. There is no request to disk in T3 and T4, so readahead pipeline breaks. We really don't need block plug for generic_file_aio_read() for buffered I/O. The readahead already has plug and has fine grained control when I/O should be submitted. Deleting plug for buffered I/O fixes the regression. One side effect is plug makes the request size 256k, the size is 128k without it. This is because default ra size is 128k and not a reason we need plug here. Vivek said: : We submit some readahead IO to device request queue but because of nested : plug, queue never gets unplugged. When read logic reaches a page which is : not in page cache, it waits for page to be read from the disk : (lock_page_killable()) and that time we flush the plug list. : : So effectively read ahead logic is kind of broken in parts because of : nested plugging. Removing top level plug (generic_file_aio_read()) for : buffered reads, will allow unplugging queue earlier for readahead. Signed-off-by:

commit 3c076351 upstream. Right now we forcibly clear ASPM state on all devices if the BIOS indicates that the feature isn't supported. Based on the Microsoft presentation "PCI Express In Depth for Windows Vista and Beyond", I'm starting to think that this may be an error. The implication is that unless the platform grants full control via _OSC, Windows will not touch any PCIe features - including ASPM. In that case clearing ASPM state would be an error unless the platform has granted us that control. This patch reworks the ASPM disabling code such that the actual clearing of state is triggered by a successful handoff of PCIe control to the OS. The general ASPM code undergoes some changes in order to ensure that the ability to clear the bits isn't overridden by ASPM having already been disabled. Further, this theoretically now allows for situations where only a subset of PCIe roots hand over control, leaving the others in the BIOS state. It's difficult to know for sure that this is the right thing to do - there's zero public documentation on the interaction between all of these components. But enough vendors enable ASPM on platforms and then set this bit that it seems likely that they're expecting the OS to leave them alone. Measured to save around 5W on an idle Thinkpad X220.
