It seems that we have developed a bad-block-marking "feature" out of pure laziness: "We write two bytes per location, so we dont have to mess with 16 bit access." It's relatively simple to write a 1 byte at a time on x8 devices and 2 bytes at a time on x16 devices, so let's do it.

Many NAND flash systems (especially those with MLC NAND) cannot be reliably written twice in a row. For instance, when marking a bad block, the block may already have data written to it, and so we should attempt to erase the block before writing a bad block marker to its OOB region. We can ignore erase failures, since the block may be bad such that it cannot be erased properly; we still attempt to write zeros to its spare area.

Add missing iounmap in error handling code, in a case where the function already preforms iounmap on some other execution path. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression e; statement S,S1; int ret; @@ e = \(ioremap\|ioremap_nocache\)(...) ... when != iounmap(e) if (<+...e...+>) S ... when any when != iounmap(e) *if (...) { ... when != iounmap(e) return ...; } ... when any iounmap(e); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

The code in link_path_walk() that finds out the length and the hash of the next path component is some of the hottest code in the kernel. And I have a version of it that does things at the full width of the CPU wordsize at a time, but that means that we *really* want to split it up into a separate helper function. So this re-organizes the code a bit and splits the hashing part into a helper function called "hash_name()". It returns the length of the pathname component, while at the same time computing and writing the hash to the appropriate location. The code generation is slightly changed by this patch, but generally for the better - and the added abstraction actually makes the code easier to read too. And the new interface is well suited for replacing just the "hash_name()" function with alternative implementations. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

It did some odd things for unclear reasons. As this is one of the functions that gets changed when doing word-at-a-time compares, this is yet another of the "don't change any semantics, but clean things up so that subsequent patches don't get obscured by the cleanups".

.. and also use it in lookup_one_len() rather than open-coding it. There aren't any performance-critical users, so inlining it is silly. But it wouldn't matter if it wasn't for the fact that the word-at-a-time dentry name patches want to conditionally replace the function, and uninlining it sets the stage for that. So again, this is a preparatory patch that doesn't change any semantics, and only prepares for a much cleaner and testable word-at-a-time dentry name accessor patch.

These don't change any semantics, but they clean up the code a bit and mark some arguments appropriately 'const'. They came up as I was doing the word-at-a-time dcache name accessor code, and cleaning this up now allows me to send out a smaller relevant interesting patch for the experimental stuff.

It makes no sense to attempt to manually configure the fan in auto mode, or set the duty cycle directly in closed loop mode. The corresponding registers are then read-only.

Nikolaus Schulz authored
The F75387 supports automatic fan control using either PWM duty cycle or RPM speed values. Make the driver detect the latter mode, and expose the different modes in sysfs as per pwm_enable, so that the user can switch between them. The interpretation of the pwm_enable attribute for the F75387 is adjusted to be a superset of those values used for similar Fintek chips which do not support automatic duty mode, with 2 mapping to automatic speed mode, and moving automatic duty mode to the new value 4. Toggling the duty mode via pwm_enable is currently denied for the F75387, as the chip then simply reinterprets the fan configuration register values according to the new mode, switching between RPM and PWM units, which makes this a dangerous operation. This patch introduces a new pwm mode into the driver. This is necessary because the new mode (automatic pwm mode, 4) may already be enabled by the BIOS, and the driver should not break existing functionality. This was seen on at least one board.

It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control register and SVM is disabled in EFER. This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit in the performance counter control register when SVM is not enabled. The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is disabled the counter should not run at all and the not-counting is the intended behaviour.

A small fix for the SSI driver and a fix for system shutdown with modern devices. Most of the modern devices will never get shut down normally with a visible kernel log as the systems they're in tend not to shut down often and when they do it's usually in form factors that don't have a user visible console.

memblock allocator aligns @size to @align to reduce the amount of fragmentation. Commit: 7bd0b0f0 ("memblock: Reimplement memblock allocation using reverse free area iterator") Broke it by incorrectly relocating @size aligning to memblock_find_in_range_node(). As the aligned size is not propagated back to memblock_alloc_base_nid(), the actually reserved size isn't aligned. While this increases memory use for memblock reserved array, this shouldn't cause any critical failure; however, it seems that the size aligning was hiding a use-beyond-allocation bug in sparc64 and losing the aligning causes boot failure. The underlying problem is currently being debugged but this is a proper fix in itself, it's already pretty late in -rc cycle for boot failures and reverting the change for debugging isn't difficult.

Merge virtio pull request from Rusty Russell. * tag 'for-linus' of git://github.com/rustyrussell/linux: virtio: balloon: leak / fill balloon across S4
-
Amit Shah authored
commit e562966d added support for S4 to the balloon driver. The freeze function did nothing to free the pages, since reclaiming the pages from the host to immediately give them back (if S4 was successful) seemed wasteful. Also, if S4 wasn't successful, the guest would have to re-fill the balloon. On restore, the pages were supposed to be marked freed and the free page counters were incremented to reflect the balloon was totally deflated. However, this wasn't done right. The pages that were earlier taken away from the guest during a balloon inflation operation were just shown as used pages after a successful restore from S4. Just a fancy way of leaking lots of memory. Instead of trying that, just leak the balloon on freeze and fill it on restore/thaw paths. This works properly now. The optimisation to not leak can be added later on after a bit of refactoring of the code. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

Tomi Valkeinen authored
ovl->enable/disable are meant to be synchronous so that they can handle the configuration of fifo sizes. The current kernel doesn't configure fifo sizes yet, and so the code doesn't need to block to function (from omapdss driver's perspective). However, for the users of omapdss a non-blocking ovl->disable is confusing, because they don't know when the memory area is not used any more. Furthermore, when the fifo size configuration is added in the next merge window, the change from non-blocking to blocking could cause side effects to the users of omapdss. So by making the functions block already will keep them behaving in the same manner. And, while not the main purpose of this patch, this will also remove the compile warning: drivers/video/omap2/dss/apply.c:350: warning: 'wait_pending_extra_info_updates' defined but not used Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@gmx.de>
