Each net_device in a system will automatically managed as a possible batman_if and holds different informations like a buffer with a prepared originator messages. To reduce the memory usage, the packet_buff will only be allocated when the interface is really added/enabled for batman-adv. The function to update the hw address information inside the packet_buff just assumes that the packet_buff is always initialised and thus the kernel will just oops when we try to change the hw address of a not already fully enabled interface. We must always check if the packet_buff is allocated before we try to change information inside of it.

dev_put allows a device to be freed when all its references are dropped. After that we are not allowed to access that information anymore. Access to the data structure of a net_device must be surrounded a dev_hold and ended using dev_put. batman-adv adds a device to its own management structure in hardif_add_interface and will release it in hardif_remove_interface. Thus it must hold a reference all the time between those functions to prevent any access to the already released net_device structure.

We try to get all events for all net_devices to be able to add special sysfs folders for the batman-adv configuration. This also includes such events like NETDEV_POST_INIT which has no valid kobject according to v2.6.32-rc3-13-g7ffbe3fd. This would create an oops in that situation. It is enough to create the batman_if only on NETDEV_REGISTER events because we will also receive those events for devices which already existed when we registered the notifier call.

Earlier batman-adv versions would only create a batman_if struct after a corresponding interface had been activated by a user. Now each existing system interface has a batman_if struct and has to be checked by verifying the IF_ACTIVE flag.

When receiving an batman icmp echo request or in case of a time-to-live exceeded batman would reply with the mac address of the outgoing interface which might be a secondary interface. Because secondary interfaces are not globally known this might lead to confusion. Now, replies are sent with the mac address of the primary interface.

If a batman icmp packet had to be routed over a secondary interface at the first hop, the mac address of that secondary interface would be written in the 'orig' field of the icmp packet. A node which is more than one hop away is not aware of the mac address because secondary interfaces are not flooded through the whole mesh and therefore can't send a reply. This patch always sends the mac address of the primary interface in the 'orig' field of the icmp packet.

Dave Chinner authored
Commit ebf8aa44 ("radix-tree: omplement function radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged") does not safely set tags on on intermediate tree nodes. The code walks down the tree setting tags before it has fully resolved the path to the leaf under the assumption there will be a leaf slot with the tag set in the range it is searching. Unfortunately, this is not a valid assumption - we can abort after setting a tag on an intermediate node if we overrun the number of tags we are allowed to set in a batch, or stop scanning because we we have passed the last scan index before we reach a leaf slot with the tag we are searching for set. As a result, we can leave the function with tags set on intemediate nodes which can be tripped over later by tag-based lookups. The result of these stale tags is that lookup may end prematurely or livelock because the lookup cannot make progress. The fix for the problem involves reocrding the traversal path we take to the leaf nodes, and only propagating the tags back up the tree once the tag is set in the leaf node slot. We are already recording the path for efficient traversal, so there is no additional overhead to do the intermediately node tag setting in this manner. This fixes a radix tree lookup livelock triggered by the new writeback sync livelock avoidance code introduced in commit f446daae ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging").

Commit f446daae ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging") introduced a new radix tree tag, increasing the number of tags in each node from 2 to 3. It did not, however, fix up the code in radix_tree_node_rcu_free() that cleans up after radix_tree_shrink() and hence could leave stray tags set in the new tag array. The result is that the livelock avoidance code added in the the above commit would hit stale tags when doing tag based lookups, resulting in livelocks when trying to traverse the tree. Fix this problem in radix_tree_node_rcu_free() so it doesn't happen again in the future by using a loop to walk all the tags up to RADIX_TREE_MAX_TAGS to clear the stray tags radix_tree_shrink() leaves behind.

We now attempt to free "active" objects following a GPU hang as either the GPU will be reset or the hang is permenant. In either case, the GPU writes will not be flushed to main memory and it should be safe to return that memory back to the system. The BUG_ON(active) is thus overkill and can erroneously fire after a EIO. Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>

Waiting for a hard coded 20ms isn't always enough to make sure a vblank period has actually occurred, so add code to make sure we really have passed through a vblank period (or that the pipe is off when disabling). This prevents problems with mode setting and link training, and seems to fix a bug like https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29278, but on an HP 8440p instead. Hopefully also fixes https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29141. Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>

With the introduction of the new unified work queue thread pools, we lost one feature: It's no longer possible to know which worker is causing the CPU to wake out of idle. The result is that PowerTOP now reports a lot of "kworker/a:b" instead of more readable results. This patch adds a pair of tracepoints to the new workqueue code, similar in style to the timer/hrtimer tracepoints. With this pair of tracepoints, the next PowerTOP can correctly report which work item caused the wakeup (and how long it took): Interrupt (43) i915 time 3.51ms wakeups 141 Work ieee80211_iface_work time 0.81ms wakeups 29 Work do_dbs_timer time 0.55ms wakeups 24 Process Xorg time 21.36ms wakeups 4 Timer sched_rt_period_timer time 0.01ms wakeups 1 Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Like the mlock() change previously, this makes the stack guard check code use vma->vm_prev to see what the mapping below the current stack is, rather than have to look it up with find_vma(). Also, accept an abutting stack segment, since that happens naturally if you split the stack with mlock or mprotect.

It's a really simple list, and several of the users want to go backwards in it to find the previous vma.
