commit 13c199c0 upstream. On some laptops it will return NOTIFY_OK(non-zero) when calling the ACPI LID notifier. Then it is used as the result of ACPI LID resume function, which will complain the following warning message in course of suspend/resume: >PM: Device PNP0C0D:00 failed to resume: error 1 This patch is to eliminate the above warning message. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14782Signed-off-by:

commit bdc731bc upstream. BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/435958 The module alias currently matches any Acer computer but when loaded the BIOS checks will only succeed on Aspire One models. This causes a invalid BIOS warning for all other models (seen on Aspire 4810T). This is not fatal but worries users that see this message. Limiting the moule alias to models starting with AOA or DOA for Packard Bell. Signed-off-by:

commit 509426bd upstream. adev->dma_mode stores the transfer mode value not UDMA mode number so the condition in cmd64x_set_dmamode() is always true and the higher UDMA clock is always selected. This can potentially result in data corruption when UDMA33 device is used, when 40-wire cable is used or when the error recovery code decides to lower the device speed down. The issue was introduced in the commit 6a40da02 ("libata cmd64x: whack into a shape that looks like the documentation") which goes back to kernel 2.6.20. Signed-off-by:

commit 256ace9b upstream. The clock turnaround code still doesn't work for several reasons: - 'USE_DPLL' flag in 'ap->host->private_data' is never initialized or updated, so the driver can only set the chip to the DPLL clock mode, not the PCI mode; - the driver doesn't serialize access to the channels depending on the current clock mode like the vendor drivers, so the clock turnaround is only executed "optionally", not always as it should be; - the wrong ports are written to when hpt3x2n_set_clock() is called for the secondary channel; - hpt3x2n_set_clock() can inadvertently enable the disabled channels when resetting the channel state machines.

commit bb6eddf7 upstream. Xiaotian Feng triggered a list corruption in the clock events list on CPU hotplug and debugged the root cause. If a CPU registers more than one per cpu clock event device, then only the active clock event device is removed on CPU_DEAD. The unused devices are kept in the clock events device list. On CPU up the clock event devices are registered again, which means that we list_add an already enqueued list_head. That results in list corruption. Resolve this by removing all devices which are associated to the dead CPU on CPU_DEAD. Reported-by:

commit 45a94d7c upstream. xsave_cntxt_init() does something like: cpuid(0xd, ..); // find out what features FP/SSE/.. etc are supported xsetbv(); // enable the features known to OS cpuid(0xd, ..); // find out the size of the context for features enabled Depending on what features get enabled in xsetbv(), value of the cpuid.eax=0xd.ecx=0.ebx changes correspondingly (representing the size of the context that is enabled). As we don't have volatile keyword for native_cpuid(), gcc 4.1.2 optimizes away the second cpuid and the kernel continues to use the cpuid information obtained before xsetbv(), ultimately leading to kernel crash on processors supporting more state than the legacy FP/SSE. Add "volatile" for native_cpuid(). Signed-off-by:

commit c982c368 upstream. dio transfer always resets mdata->page_order to zero. It breaks high-order pages previously allocated for non-dio transfer. This patches adds reserved_page_order to st_buffer structure to save page order for non-dio transfer. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14563 When enlarge_buffer() allocates 524288 from 0, st uses six-order page allocation. So mdata->page_order is 6 and frp_seg is 2. After that, if st uses dio, sgl_map_user_pages() sets mdata->page_order to 0 for st_do_scsi(). After that, when we call normalize_buffer(), it frees only free frp_seg * PAGE_SIZE (2 * 4096) though we should free frp_seg * PAGE_SIZE << 6 (2 * 4096 << 6). So we see buffer_size is set to 516096 (524288 - 8192). Reported-by:

commit 99c965dd upstream. After commits c82f63e4 (PCI: check saved state before restore) and 4b77b0a2 (PCI: Clear saved_state after the state has been restored) PCI drivers are prevented from restoring the device standard configuration registers twice in a row. These changes introduced a regression on ipr EEH recovery. The ipr device driver saves the PCI state only during the device probe and restores it on ipr_reset_restore_cfg_space() during IOA resets. This behavior is causing the EEH recovery to fail after the second error detected, since the registers are not being restored. One possible solution would be saving the registers after restoring them. The problem with this approach is that while recovering from an EEH error if pci_save_state() results in an EEH error, the adapter/slot will be reset, and end up back in ipr_reset_restore_cfg_space(), but it won't have a valid saved state to restore, so pci_restore_state() will fail. The following patch introduces a workaround for this problem, hacking around the PCI API by setting pdev->state_saved = true before we do the restore. It fixes the EEH regression and prevents that we hit another EEH error during EEH recovery. [jejb: fix is a hack ... Jesse and Rafael will fix properly] Signed-off-by:

commit 0f624e7e upstream. It is quite legitimate for CPUs to be numbered sparsely, meaning that it possible for an online CPU to have a number which is greater than the total count of possible CPUs. Currently find_get_context() has a sanity check on the cpu number where it checks it against num_possible_cpus(). This test can fail for a legitimate cpu number if the cpu_possible_mask is sparsely populated. This fixes the problem by checking the CPU number against nr_cpumask_bits instead, since that is the appropriate check to ensure that the cpu number is same to pass to cpu_isset() subsequently.

commit 1672af11 upstream. We are seeing a bug when booting w/ iommu=pt with current upstream (bisect blames 19943b0e "intel-iommu: Unify hardware and software passthrough support). The issue is specific to this loop during identity map initialization of each device: domain_context_mapping_one(si_domain, ..., CONTEXT_TT_PASS_THROUGH) ... /* Skip top levels of page tables for * iommu which has less agaw than default. */ for (agaw = domain->agaw; agaw != iommu->agaw; agaw--) { pgd = phys_to_virt(dma_pte_addr(pgd)); if (!dma_pte_present(pgd)) { <------ failing here spin_unlock_irqrestore(&iommu->lock, flags); return -ENOMEM; } This box has 2 iommu's in it. The catchall iommu has MGAW == 48, and SAGAW == 4. The other iommu has MGAW == 39, SAGAW == 2. The device that's failing the above pgd test is the only device connected to the non-catchall iommu, which has a smaller address width than the domain default. This test is not necessary since the context is in PT mode and the ASR is ignored. Thanks to Don Dutile for discovering and debugging this one. Signed-off-by:

commit 44cd613c upstream. The hotplug notifier will call find_domain() to see if the device in question has been assigned an IOMMU domain. However, this should never be called for devices with a "dummy" domain, such as graphics devices when intel_iommu=igfx_off is set and the corresponding IOMMU isn't even initialised. If you do that, it'll oops as it dereferences the (-1) pointer. The notifier function should check iommu_no_mapping() for the device before doing anything else. Signed-off-by:

commit d99be1a8 upstream. When do_nonlinear_fault() realizes that the page table must have been corrupted for it to have been called, it does print_bad_pte() and returns ... VM_FAULT_OOM, which is hard to understand. It made some sense when I did it for 2.6.15, when do_page_fault() just killed the current process; but nowadays it lets the OOM killer decide who to kill - so page table corruption in one process would be liable to kill another. Change it to return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS instead: that doesn't guarantee that the process will be killed, but is good enough for such a rare abnormality, accompanied as it is by the "BUG: Bad page map" message. And recent HWPOISON work has copied that code into do_swap_page(), when it finds an impossible swap entry: fix that to VM_FAULT_SIGBUS too. Signed-off-by:

Upstream commit a2202aa2. On platforms where bios handles the thermal monitor interrupt, APIC_LVTTHMR on each logical CPU is programmed to generate a SMI and OS can't touch it. Unfortunately AP bringup sequence using INIT-SIPI-SIPI clear all the LVT entries except the mask bit. Essentially this results in all LVT entries including the thermal monitoring interrupt set to masked (clearing the bios programmed value for APIC_LVTTHMR). And this leads to kernel take over the thermal monitoring interrupt on AP's but not on BSP (leaving the bios programmed value only on BSP). As a result of this, we have seen system hangs when the thermal monitoring interrupt is generated. Fix this by reading the initial value of thermal LVT entry on BSP and if bios has taken over the control, then program the same value on all AP's and leave the thermal monitoring interrupt control on all the logical cpu's to the bios.

Although these blocks were never inside i_size, we have to truncate pagecache of these blocks so that corresponding buffers get unmapped. Otherwise subsequent __block_prepare_write (called because we are retrying the write) will find the buffers mapped, not call ->get_block, and thus the page will be backed by already freed blocks leading to filesystem and data corruption.

commit d90a909e upstream. I received some bug reports about userspace programs having problems because after RTM_NEWLINK was received they could not immeidate access files under /proc/sys/net/ because they had not been registered yet. The problem was trivailly fixed by moving the userspace notification from rtnetlink_event to the end of register_netdevice. Signed-off-by:

commit 03a05ed1 upstream. Currently, ARB_DISABLE is a NOP on all of the recent Intel platforms. For such platforms, reduce contention on c3_lock by skipping the fake ARB_DISABLE. The cpu model id on one laptop is 14. If we disable ARB_DISABLE on this box, the box can't be booted correctly. But if we still enable ARB_DISABLE on this box, the box can be booted correctly. So we still use the ARB_DISABLE for the cpu which mode id is less than 0x0f. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14700Signed-off-by:

No matching upstream commit as it was resolved differently there. pcpu_get_vm_areas() is used only when dynamic percpu allocator is used by the architecture. In 2.6.32, ia64 doesn't use dynamic percpu allocator and has a macro which makes pcpu_get_vm_areas() buggy via local/global variable aliasing and triggers compile warning. The problem is fixed in upstream and ia64 uses dynamic percpu allocators, so the only left issue is inclusion of unnecessary code and compile warning on ia64 on 2.6.32. Don't build pcpu_get_vm_areas() if legacy percpu allocator is in use. Signed-off-by:

commit d951d4cc upstream. The light sensor disable brightness key and /sys/class/backlight/ control. There was a lot of report from users who didn't understand why they couldn't change their brightness, including: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222171 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=514747 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13671 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14432 Now the light sensor is disabled, and if the user want to enable it, the level should be ok. The funny thing is that comments where ok, not code.

commit 36065746 upstream. Added new BIOS versions for following netbooks: Acer 1410, Gateway LT31, Packard Bell DOA150. As the Gateway LT31 machines have different register values for setting and checking the off-state, the "cmd_off" variable has been splitted up to "cmd_off" and "chk_off". Signed-off-by:
