Linus reported that due to mac80211 failing to register the device (due to WoWLAN) his machine crashed etc. as we double-freed the vmalloc() firmware area. His patch to fix it was very similar to this one but I noticed that there's another bug in the area: we complete the completion before starting, so since we're running in a work struct context stop() could be called while in the middle of start() which will almost certainly lead to issues. Make a modification similar to his to avoid the double- free but also move the completion to another spot so it is only done after start() either finished or failed so that stop() can have a consistent state.

If CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is disabled, then iwlwifi doesn't support suspend/resume handlers and thus mac80211 (correctly) refuses advertising WoWLAN. Disable WoWLAN in the driver in this case.

sta_info_cleanup locks the sta_list using rcu_read_lock however the delete operation isn't rcu safe. A race between sta_info_cleanup timer being called and a STA being removed can occur which leads to a panic while traversing sta_list. Fix this by switching to the RCU-safe versions.

MacBook Pro models with BCM4331 wireless have been found to have the ext PA lines disabled after resuming from S3 without external power attach. This causes them to be unable to transmit. Add a workaround to ensure that the ext PA lines are enabled on BCM4331. Also extend all handling of ext PA line muxing to BCM43431 as is done in the Broadcom SDK.

When any interface goes down, it could be the one that we were doing a remain-on-channel with. We therefore need to cancel the remain-on-channel and flush the related work structs so they don't run after the interface has been removed or even destroyed. It's also possible in this case that an off-channel SKB was never transmitted, so free it if this is the case. Note that this can also happen if the driver finishes the off-channel period without ever starting it.

Mesh station that joins an MBSS is reachable using mesh portal with 6 address frame by mesh stations from another MBSS if these two different MBSSes are bridged. However, if the mesh station later moves into the same MBSS of those mesh stations, it is unreachable by mesh stations in the MBSS due to the mpp_paths table is not deleted. A quick fix is to perform mesh_path_lookup, if it is available for the target destination, mpp_path_lookup is not performed. When the mesh station moves back to its original MBSS, the mesh_paths will be deleted once expired. So, it will be reachable using mpp_path_lookup again.

This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_. This, read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the live target. Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time. The pool's status line will give the block location for the current msnap. Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows: thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev> Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things that have traditionally been kernel side tasks: i) Incremental backups. By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have changed over time. Combined with data snapshots we can ensure the data doesn't change while we back it up. A short proof of concept script can be found here: https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another. iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin. iv) Asyncronous replication.

After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to the device. Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN. With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl too. The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened. Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd (that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten milliseconds. Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due to a path failure. Such retries should be handled intelligently by the code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write commands). For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which might fail too. It can be determined if the failure happens on the device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

If I/O needs retrying and only bypassed priority groups are available, set the pg_init_delay_retry flag to wait before retrying. If, for example, the reason for the bypass is that the controller is getting reset or there is a firmware upgrade happening, retrying right away would cause a flood of log messages and retries for what could be a few seconds or even several minutes.

Pull straggler x86 fixes from Peter Anvin: "Three groups of patches: - EFI boot stub documentation and the ability to print error messages; - Removal for PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32 (obsolete interface which should never have been ported, and the port is broken and potentially dangerous.) - ftrace stack corruption fixes. I'm not super-happy about the technical implementation, but it is probably the least invasive in the short term. In the future I would like a single method for nesting the debug stack, however." * 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86, x32, ptrace: Remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32 x86, efi: Add EFI boot stub documentation x86, efi; Add EFI boot stub console support x86, efi: Only close open files in error path ftrace/x86: Do not change stacks in DEBUG when calling lockdep x86: Allow nesting of the debug stack IDT setting x86: Reset the debug_stack update counter ftrace: Use breakpoint method to update ftrace caller ftrace: Synchronize variable setting with breakpoints

This reverts the tty layer change to use per-tty locking, because it's not correct yet, and fixing it will require some more deep surgery. The main revert is d29f3ef3 ("tty_lock: Localise the lock"), but there are several smaller commits that built upon it, they also get reverted here. The list of reverted commits is: fde86d31 - tty: add lockdep annotations 8f6576ad - tty: fix ldisc lock inversion trace d3ca8b64 - pty: Fix lock inversion b1d679af - tty: drop the pty lock during hangup abcefe5f - tty/amiserial: Add missing argument for tty_unlock() fd11b42e - cris: fix missing tty arg in wait_event_interruptible_tty call d29f3ef3 - tty_lock: Localise the lock The revert had a trivial conflict in the 68360serial.c staging driver that got removed in the meantime.

Pull vfs fix and a fix from the signal changes for frv from Al Viro. The __kernel_nlink_t for powerpc got scrogged because 64-bit powerpc actually depended on the default "unsigned long", while 32-bit powerpc had an explicit override to "unsigned short". Al didn't notice, and made both of them be the unsigned short. The frv signal fix is fallout from simplifying the do_notify_resume() code, and leaving an extra parenthesis. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: powerpc: Fix size of st_nlink on 64bit * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: frv: Remove bogus closing parenthesis

The definition of I217_PROXY_CTRL must use the BM_PHY_REG() macro instead of the PHY_REG() macro for PHY page 800 register 70 since it is for a PHY register greater than the maximum allowed by the latter macro, and fix a typo setting the I217_MEMPWR register in e1000_suspend_workarounds_ich8lan. Also for clarity, rename a few defines as bit definitions instead of masks.

Merge fixups for the mac NLS tables from Andrew. * emailed from Andrew Morton, and one cleanup by me: nls: fix (and rename) mac NLS table files and config options fs/nls/Makefile: remove bogus CONFIG_ assignments
-
Linus Torvalds authored
The config options in the Kconfig file (with _CODEPAGE_ in the name) didn't match the config option name in the Makefile (no _CODEPAGE_). And both of them were of the hard-to-read MACXYZZY variety, which made them hard to parse for normal humans: MACROMAN easily reads as "macro man", not as "Mac Roman". So rename the options to be consistent, and be NLS_MAC_xyzzy. Rename the files to be mac-xyzzy.c too, and drop the "nls" part entirely (it's already in the directory name).
