In the case that the lower layer driver reports a cc change directly from SINK state to SOURCE state, TCPM doesn't handle these cc change in SRC_SEND_CAPABILITIES, SRC_READY states. And with SRC_ATTACHED state, the change is not handled as the port is still considered connected.

While performing PORT_RESET, upon receiving the cc disconnect signal from the underlaying tcpc device, TCPM transitions into unattached state. Consider the current type of port while determining the unattached state. In the below logs, although the port_type was set to sink, TCPM transitioned into SRC_UNATTACHED.

According the spec, the following is the conditions for exiting Try.SNK state: "The port shall wait for tDRPTry and only then begin monitoring the CC1 and CC2 pins for the SNK.Rp state.

The commit 12e84c71 ("tty: export tty_open_by_driver") exports tty_open_by_device to allow tty to be opened from inside kernel which works fine except that it doesn't handle contention with user space or another kernel-space open of the same tty. For example, opening a tty from user space while it is kernel opened results in failure and a kernel log message about mismatch between tty->count and tty's file open count. This patch makes kernel access to tty exclusive, so that if a user process or kernel opens a kernel opened tty, it gets -EBUSY. It does this by adding TTY_KOPENED flag to tty->flags. When this flag is set, tty_open_by_driver returns -EBUSY. Instead of overloading tty_open_by_driver for both kernel and user space, this patch creates a separate function tty_kopen which closely follows tty_open_by_driver. tty_kclose closes the tty opened by tty_kopen. To address the mismatch between tty->count and #fd's, this patch adds #kopen's to the count before comparing it with tty->count. That way check_tty_count reflects correct usage count. Returning -EBUSY on tty open is a change in the interface. I have tested this with minicom, picocom and commands like "echo foo > /dev/ttyS0". They all correctly report "Device or resource busy" when the tty is already kernel opened.

The changes in this commit are also being sent to the main rtlwifi drivers in wireless-next; however, these changes will also be useful for any debugging of r8822be before it gets moved into the main tree. Use debugfs to dump register and btcoex status, and also write registers and h2c. We create topdir in /sys/kernel/debug/rtlwifi/, and use the MAC address as subdirectory with several entries to dump mac_reg, bb_reg, rf_reg etc. An example is /sys/kernel/debug/rtlwifi/00-11-22-33-44-55-66/mac_0 This change permits examination of device registers in a dynamic manner, a feature not available with the current debug mechanism. We use seq_file to replace RT_TRACE to dump status, then we can use 'cat' to access btcoex's status through debugfs. (i.e. /sys/kernel/debug/rtlwifi/00-11-22-33-44-55-66/btcoex) Other related changes are 1. implement btc_disp_dbg_msg() to access btcoex's common status. 2. remove obsolete field bt_exist Signed-off-by: Ping-Ke Shih <pkshih@realtek.com> Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Cc: Yan-Hsuan Chuang <yhchuang@realtek.com> Cc: Birming Chiu <birming@realtek.com> Cc: Shaofu <shaofu@realtek.com> Cc: Steven Ting <steventing@realtek.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

The "lock_page_killable()" function waits for exclusive access to the page lock bit using the WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE bit in the waitqueue entry set. That means that if it gets woken up, other waiters may have been skipped. That, in turn, means that if it sees the page being unlocked, it *must* take that lock and return success, even if a lethal signal is also pending. So instead of checking for lethal signals first, we need to check for them after we've checked the actual bit that we were waiting for. Even if that might then delay the killing of the process. This matches the order of the old "wait_on_bit_lock()" infrastructure that the page locking used to use (and is still used in a few other areas). Note that if we still return an error after having unsuccessfully tried to acquire the page lock, that is ok: that means that some other thread was able to get ahead of us and lock the page, and when that other thread then unlocks the page, the wakeup event will be repeated. So any other pending waiters will now get properly woken up.

Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows extremely long page wakeup lists. The cause seems to be constant NUMA migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found. Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes. That is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue specific parts of it. In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less expensive, and failing miserably. If you have thousands of threads waiting for the same page, it will be painful. We'll need to try to figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding the excessive spinlock hold times. That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular: (a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of the patterns of the bad load). That makes no progress and just causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers. (b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back. Not only is that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway. Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members. It so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first member in struct page.

We have a MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macro that is meant to be filled in by filesystems (and other IO targets) that know they are 64-bit clean and don't have any 32-bit limits in their IO path. It turns out that our 32-bit value for that limit was bogus. On 32-bit, the VM layer is limited by the page cache to only 32-bit index values, but our logic for that was confusing and actually wrong. We used to define that value to (((loff_t)PAGE_SIZE << (BITS_PER_LONG-1))-1) which is actually odd in several ways: it limits the index to 31 bits, and then it limits files so that they can't have data in that last byte of a page that has the highest 31-bit index (ie page index 0x7fffffff). Neither of those limitations make sense. The index is actually the full 32 bit unsigned value, and we can use that whole full page. So the maximum size of the file would logically be "PAGE_SIZE << BITS_PER_LONG". However, we do wan tto avoid the maximum index, because we have code that iterates over the page indexes, and we don't want that code to overflow. So the maximum size of a file on a 32-bit host should actually be one page less than the full 32-bit index. So the actual limit is ULONG_MAX << PAGE_SHIFT. That means that we will not actually be using the page of that last index (ULONG_MAX), but we can grow a file up to that limit. The wrong value of MAX_LFS_FILESIZE actually caused problems for Doug Nazar, who was still using a 32-bit host, but with a 9.7TB 2 x RAID5 volume. It turns out that our old MAX_LFS_FILESIZE was 8TiB (well, one byte less), but the actual true VM limit is one page less than 16TiB. This was invisible until commit c2a9737f ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop in truncate_inode_pages_range()"), which started applying that MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit to block devices too. NOTE! On 64-bit, the page index isn't a limiter at all, and the limit is actually just the offset type itself (loff_t), which is signed. But for clarity, on 64-bit, just use the maximum signed value, and don't make people have to count the number of 'f' characters in the hex constant. So just use LLONG_MAX for the 64-bit case. That was what the value had been before too, just written out as a hex constant.
