Per channel path measurement characteristics are obtained during channel path registration. However if some properties of a channel path change we don't update the measurement characteristics. Make sure to update the characteristics when we change the properties of a channel path or receive a notification from FW about such a change.

Make sure that in all cases where we could not obtain measurement characteristics the associated fields are set to invalid values. Note: without this change the "shared" capability of a channel path for which we could not obtain the measurement characteristics was incorrectly displayed as 0 (not shared). We will now correctly report "unknown" in this case.

Since each iomap_entry handles only one bar of one pci function (even when disjunct ranges of a bar are mapped) the sanity check in pci_iomap_range is not needed and can be removed.

On s390 we need to maintain a mapping between iomem addresses and arch specific function identifiers. Currently the mapping table is created as such that we could span the whole iomem address space. Since we can only map each bar space from each possible function we have an upper bound for the number of mapping entries. This reduces the size of the iomap from 256K to less than 4K (using the defconfig).

Commit 3e89e1c5 ("hugetlb: make mm and fs code explicitly non-modular") moves hugetlb_init() from module_init to subsys_initcall. The hugetlb_init()->hugetlb_register_node() code accesses "node->dev.kobj" which is initialized in numa_init_late(). Since numa_init_late() is a device_initcall which is called *after* subsys_initcall the above mentioned patch breaks NUMA on s390. So fix this and move numa_init_late() to arch_initcall.

This ensures that we always notify context tracking that we have exited from user space no matter how we enter the kernel. It is similar to how arm64 handles context tracking, for example.

This flag value is saved in ptregs and used to decide whether to disable irqs when returning from the kernel. Commit 1168df528fe4 ("tile: don't assume user privilege is zero") performed a bad merge from some KVM-enabled code that had not yet been upstreamed. The only issue with the old code is that we will read the interrupt mask in more conditions than we need to (e.g., coming from user space when user space has the Interrupt Critical Section bit set, or coming from a guest kernel), which is a slow multi-cycle operation. This change saves those few cycles in the common case. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com>

This change is a prerequisite change for TASK_ISOLATION but also stands on its own for readability and maintainability. The existing tile do_work_pending() was called in a loop from assembly on the slow path; this change moves the loop into C code as well. For the x86 version see commit c5c46f59 ("x86/entry: Add new, comprehensible entry and exit handlers written in C"). This change exposes a pre-existing bug on the older tilepro platform; the singlestep processing is done last, but on tilepro (unlike tilegx) we enable interrupts while doing that processing, so we could in theory miss a signal or other asynchronous event. A future change could fix this by breaking the singlestep work into a "prepare" step done in the main loop, and a "trigger" step done after exiting the loop. Since this change is intended as purely a restructuring change, we call out the bug explicitly now, but don't yet fix it. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com>

The Kconfig for this support is currently: config IDEPCI_PCIBUS_ORDER bool "Probe IDE PCI devices in the PCI bus order (DEPRECATED)" ...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone. Lets change the initcall to be the equivalent device_initcall, so that when reading the driver code, there is no doubt it is builtin-only. Unlike other similar changes, we leave the module.h header to be included since this code interacts with other drivers and needs to know what a struct module is. Cc: "David S.

Back in the day we used to just say this code was root only so it was ok that the bounds checking was sloppy. These days it annoys static checkers so we fix it. In the original code "c > INT_MAX" was never true since "c" was an int. I am not sure what was intended so I left it alone. But because I made "c" unsigned it means we don't have a warning any more. The second warning is that we cap "i" but allow negatives leading to an underflow of the ide_disks_chs[] array. The third set of warnings is because these values come from the user and we cap most of the upper bounds but allow negative values. Negative cylinders doesn't make sense. drivers/ide/ide.c:262 ide_set_disk_chs() warn: impossible condition '(c > ((~0 >> 1))) => (s32min-s32max > s32max)' drivers/ide/ide.c:270 ide_set_disk_chs() warn: check 'ide_disks_chs[i]' for negative offsets 'i' = s32min. extra = 's32min-19' drivers/ide/ide.c:271 ide_set_disk_chs() warn: no lower bound on 'h' Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

It was seen that defective configurations of openvswitch could overwrite the STACK_END_MAGIC and cause a hard crash of the kernel because of too many recursions within ovs. This problem arises due to the high stack usage of openvswitch. The rest of the kernel is fine with the current limit of 10 (RECURSION_LIMIT). We use the already existing recursion counter in ovs_execute_actions to implement an upper bound of 5 recursions.
