commit 18344a1c upstream. I tried a magnetic stripe reader (http://www.kimaldi.com/kimaldi_eng/productos/lectores_de_tarjetas/lectores_tarjeta_chip_y_dni/lector_hibrido_uniform_hcr_331) and I see that it is interfaced with a PL2303. I wrote a patch to use your driver which simply adds the product ID for the device and it seems working fine. From: Simone Contini <s.contini@oltrelinux.com> Signed-off-by:

commit f7448548 upstream. Markus Kohn ran into a hard hang regression on an acer aspire 1310, when acpi is enabled. git bisect showed the following commit as the bad one that introduced the boot regression. commit d0af9eed Author: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Date: Wed Aug 19 18:05:36 2009 -0700 x86, pat/mtrr: Rendezvous all the cpus for MTRR/PAT init Because of the UP configuration of that platform, native_smp_prepare_cpus() bailed out (in smp_sanity_check()) before doing the set_mtrr_aps_delayed_init() Further down the boot path, native_smp_cpus_done() will call the delayed MTRR initialization for the AP's (mtrr_aps_init()) with mtrr_aps_delayed_init not set. This resulted in the boot processor reprogramming its MTRR's to the values seen during the start of the OS boot. While this is not needed ideally, this shouldn't have caused any side-effects. This is because the reprogramming of MTRR's (set_mtrr_state() that gets called via set_mtrr()) will check if the live register contents are different from what is being asked to write and will do the actual write only if they are different. BP's mtrr state is read during the start of the OS boot and typically nothing would have changed when we ask to reprogram it on BP again because of the above scenario on an UP platform. So on a normal UP platform no reprogramming of BP MTRR MSR's happens and all is well. However, on this platform, bios seems to be modifying the fixed mtrr range registers between the start of OS boot and when we double check the live registers for reprogramming BP MTRR registers. And as the live registers are modified, we end up reprogramming the MTRR's to the state seen during the start of the OS boot. During ACPI initialization, something in the bios (probably smi handler?) don't like this fact and results in a hard lockup. We didn't see this boot hang issue on this platform before the commit d0af9eed, because only the AP's (if any) will program its MTRR's to the value that BP had at the start of the OS boot. Fix this issue by checking mtrr_aps_delayed_init before continuing further in the mtrr_aps_init(). Now, only AP's (if any) will program its MTRR's to the BP values during boot. Addresses https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623393 [ By the way, this behavior of the bios modifying MTRR's after the start of the OS boot is not common and the kernel is not prepared to handle this situation well. Irrespective of this issue, during suspend/resume, linux kernel will try to reprogram the BP's MTRR values to the values seen during the start of the OS boot. So suspend/resume might be already broken on this platform for all linux kernel versions. ] Reported-and-bisected-by:

commit 01e05e9a upstream. The wake_up_process() call in ptrace_detach() is spurious and not interlocked with the tracee state. IOW, the tracee could be running or sleeping in any place in the kernel by the time wake_up_process() is called. This can lead to the tracee waking up unexpectedly which can be dangerous. The wake_up is spurious and should be removed but for now reduce its toxicity by only waking up if the tracee is in TRACED or STOPPED state. This bug can possibly be used as an attack vector. I don't think it will take too much effort to come up with an attack which triggers oops somewhere. Most sleeps are wrapped in condition test loops and should be safe but we have quite a number of places where sleep and wakeup conditions are expected to be interlocked. Although the window of opportunity is tiny, ptrace can be used by non-privileged users and with some loading the window can definitely be extended and exploited. Signed-off-by:

commit 86af9503 upstream. A check against division by zero was modified in commit b0525b48. Since this change time_to_empty_now is always reported as zero while the battery is discharging and as a negative value while the battery is charging. This is because current is negative while the battery is discharging. Fix the check introduced by commit b0525b48 so that time_to_empty_now is reported correctly during discharge and as zero while charging. Signed-off-by:

commit 8b3bb3ec upstream. We sometimes need to map between the virtio device and the given pci device. One such use is OS installer that gets the boot pci device from BIOS and needs to find the relevant block device. Since it can't, installation fails. Instead of creating a top-level devices/virtio-pci directory, create each device under the corresponding pci device node. Symlinks to all virtio-pci devices can be found under the pci driver link in bus/pci/drivers/virtio-pci/devices, and all virtio devices under drivers/bus/virtio/devices. Signed-off-by:

commit 99a0fadf upstream. pci-stub uses strsep() to separate list of ids and generates a warning message when it fails to parse an id. However, not specifying the parameter results in ids set to an empty string. strsep() happily returns the empty string as the first token and thus triggers the warning message spuriously. Make the tokner ignore zero length ids. Reported-by:

commit 12a4dc43 upstream. In fsl_rio_dbell_handler() the code currently simply acknowledges the QFI queue full interrupt, but does nothing to resolve the queue full condition. Instead, it jumps to the end of the isr. When a queue full condition occurs, the isr is then re-entered immediately and continually, forever. The fix is to just fall through and read out current doorbell entries. Signed-off-by:

commit 2fb08e6c upstream. rtc-cmos was setting suspend/resume hooks at the device_driver level. However, the platform bus code (drivers/base/platform.c) only looks for resume hooks at the dev_pm_ops level, or within the platform_driver. Switch rtc_cmos to use dev_pm_ops so that suspend/resume code is executed again. Paul said: : The user visible symptom in our (XO laptop) case was that rtcwake would : fail to wake the laptop. The RTC alarm would expire, but the wakeup : wasn't unmasked. : : As for severity, the impact may have been reduced because if I recall : correctly, the bug only affected platforms with CONFIG_PNP disabled.

To address this, prevent the NFS direct I/O engine from completing async iocbs when the forward path returns an error without starting any I/O. This fix appears to survive ^C during both "xfstest no. 208" and "fsx -Z." It's likely this bug has existed for a very long while, as we are seeing very similar symptoms in OEL 5. Copying stable.

commit b1d4f7f4 upstream. If a timer interrupt was delayed too much, hrtimer_forward_now() will forward the timer expiry more than once. When this happens, the additional number of elapsed ALSA timer ticks must be passed to snd_timer_interrupt() to prevent the ALSA timer from falling behind. This mostly fixes MIDI slowdown problems on highly-loaded systems with badly behaved interrupt handlers. Signed-off-by:

commit 4224489f upstream. There was a configuration page timing out during the initial port enable at driver load time. The port enable would fail, and this would result in the driver unloading itself, meanwhile the driver was accessing freed memory in another context resulting in the panic. The fix is to prevent access to freed memory once the driver had issued the diag reset which woke up the sleeping port enable process. The routine _base_reset_handler was reorganized so the last sleeping process woken up was the port_enable. Signed-off-by:

commit 11e1b961 upstream. The ioc->hba_queue_depth is not properly resized when the controller firmware reports that it supports more outstanding IO than what can be fit inside the reply descriptor pool depth. This is reproduced by setting the controller global credits larger than 30,000. The bug results in an incorrect sizing of the queues. The fix is to resize the queue_size by dividing queue_diff by two. Signed-off-by:

commit 4dc2757a upstream. When zoning end devices, the driver is not sending device removal handshake alogrithm to firmware. This results in controller firmware not sending sas topology add events the next time the device is added. The fix is the driver should be doing the device removal handshake even though the PHYSTATUS_VACANT bit is set in the PhyStatus of the event data. The current design is avoiding the handshake when the VACANT bit is set in the phy status. Signed-off-by:

commit 9ee91f7f upstream. libsas makes use of scsi_schedule_eh() but forgets to clear the host_eh_scheduled flag in its error handling routine. Because of this, the error handler thread never gets to sleep; it's constantly awake and trying to run the error routine leading to console spew and inability to run anything else (at least on a UP system). The fix is to clear the flag as we splice the work queue. Signed-off-by:

commit a8733c7b upstream. Our current handling of medium error assumes that data is returned up to the bad sector. This assumption holds good for all disk devices, all DIF arrays and most ordinary arrays. However, an LSI array engine was recently discovered which reports a medium error without returning any data. This means that when we report good data up to the medium error, we've reported junk originally in the buffer as good. Worse, if the read consists of requested data plus a readahead, and the error occurs in readahead, we'll just strip off the readahead and report junk up to userspace as good data with no error. The fix for this is to have the error position computation take into account the amount of data returned by the driver using the scsi residual data. Unfortunately, not every driver fills in this data, but for those who don't, it's set to zero, which means we'll think a full set of data was transferred and the behaviour will be identical to the prior behaviour of the code (believe the buffer up to the error sector). All modern drivers seem to set the residual, so that should fix up the LSI failure/corruption case. Reported-by:
