The affinity between ARM processors is defined in the MPIDR register. We can identify which processors are in the same cluster, and which ones have performance interdependency. We can define the cpu topology of ARM platform, that is then used by sched_mc and sched_smt. The default state of sched_mc and sched_smt config is disable. When enabled, the behavior of the scheduler can be modified with sched_mc_power_savings and sched_smt_power_savings sysfs interfaces. Changes since v4 : * Remove unnecessary parentheses and blank lines Changes since v3 : * Update the format of printk message * Remove blank line Changes since v2 : * Update the commit message and some comments Changes since v1 : * Update the commit message * Add read_cpuid_mpidr in arch/arm/include/asm/cputype.h * Modify header of arch/arm/kernel/topology.c * Modify tests and manipulation of MPIDR's bitfields * Modify the place and dependancy of the config * Modify Noop functions Signed-off-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Amit Kucheria <amit.kucheria@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Commit be020f86, "ARM: entry: abort-macro: specify registers to be used for macros", while replacing register numbers with macro parameter names, mismatched the name used for r1. For me, this resulted in user space built for EABI with -march=armv4t -mtune=arm920t -mthumb-interwork -mthumb broken on my OMAP1510 based Amstrad Delta (old ABI and no thumb still worked for me though). Fix this by using correct parameter name fsr instead of mismatched psr, used by callers for another purpose.

Since backlight_types[] isn't modified, let's declare it const. That was probably the intention of the author of commit bb7ca747 ("backlight: add backlight type"), via which the "const char const *" construct was introduced. The duplicate const was detected by sparse.

* 'for-linus' of git://neil.brown.name/md: md: Fix handling for devices from 2TB to 4TB in 0.90 metadata. md/raid1,10: Remove use-after-free bug in make_request. md/raid10: unify handling of write completion. Avoid dereferencing a 'request_queue' after last close.

NeilBrown authored
0.90 metadata uses an unsigned 32bit number to count the number of kilobytes used from each device. This should allow up to 4TB per device. However we multiply this by 2 (to get sectors) before casting to a larger type, so sizes above 2TB get truncated. Also we allow rdev->sectors to be larger than 4TB, so it is possible for the array to be resized larger than the metadata can handle. So make sure rdev->sectors never exceeds 4TB when 0.90 metadata is in used. Also the sanity check at the end of super_90_load should include level 1 as it used ->size too. (RAID0 and Linear don't use ->size at all). Reported-by: Pim Zandbergen <P.Zandbergen@macroscoop.nl> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

A single request to RAID1 or RAID10 might result in multiple requests if there are known bad blocks that need to be avoided. To detect if we need to submit another write request we test: if (sectors_handled < (bio->bi_size >> 9)) { However this is after we call **_write_done() so the 'bio' no longer belongs to us - the writes could have completed and the bio freed. So move the **_write_done call until after the test against bio->bi_size.

A write can complete at two different places: 1/ when the last member-device write completes, through raid10_end_write_request 2/ in make_request() when we remove the initial bias from ->remaining. These two should do exactly the same thing and the comment says they do, but they don't. So factor the correct code out into a function and call it in both places. This makes the code much more similar to RAID1. The difference is only significant if there is an error, and they usually take a while, so it is unlikely that there will be an error already when make_request is completing, so this is unlikely to cause real problems.

On the last close of an 'md' device which as been stopped, the device is destroyed and in particular the request_queue is freed. The free is done in a separate thread so it might happen a short time later. __blkdev_put calls bdev_inode_switch_bdi *after* ->release has been called. Since commit f758eeab bdev_inode_switch_bdi will dereference the 'old' bdi, which lives inside a request_queue, to get a spin lock. This causes the last close on an md device to sometime take a spin_lock which lives in freed memory - which results in an oops. So move the called to bdev_inode_switch_bdi before the call to ->release.

Commit b03e7495 ("PCI: Set PCI-E Max Payload Size on fabric") introduced a potential NULL pointer dereference in calls to pcie_bus_configure_settings due to attempts to access pci_bus self variables when the self pointer is NULL.

Prior to 2.6.38 automount would not trigger on either stat(2) or lstat(2) on the automount point. After 2.6.38, with the introduction of the ->d_automount() infrastructure, stat(2) and others would start triggering automount while lstat(2), etc. still would not. This is a regression and a userspace ABI change. Problem originally reported here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.autofs/6098 It appears that there was an attempt at fixing various userspace tools to not trigger the automount. But since the stat system call is rather common it is impossible to "fix" all userspace. This patch reverts the original behavior, which is to not trigger on stat(2) and other symlink following syscalls. [ It's not really clear what the right behavior is. Apparently Solaris does the "automount on stat, leave alone on lstat". And some programs can get unhappy when "stat+open+fstat" ends up giving a different result from the fstat than from the initial stat. But the change in 2.6.38 resulted in problems for some people, so we're going back to old behavior. Maybe we can re-visit this discussion at some future date - Linus ] Reported-by: Leonardo Chiquitto <leonardo.lists@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Acked-by: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

HID devices can be hotplugged so we should unregister all sysfs attributes when removing a driver. Otherwise, manually unloading the wacom-driver will not remove the sysfs attributes.

power_supply_unregister() must not be called if power_supply_register() failed. The wdata->psy.dev pointer may point to invalid memory after a failed power_supply_register() and hence wacom_remove() will fail while calling power_supply_unregister(). This changes the wacom_probe function to fail if it cannot register the power_supply devices. If we would want to keep the previous behaviour we had to keep some flag about the power_supply state and check it on wacom_remove, but this seems inappropriate here. Hence, we simply fail, too, if power_supply_register fails. Signed-off-by: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
