commit 0ff97ebf upstream. Ever since the DAPM performance improvements we've been marking all widgets as not dirty after each DAPM run. Since _PRE and _POST events aren't part of the DAPM graph this has rendered them non-functional, they will never be marked dirty again and thus will never be run again. Fix this by skipping them when marking widgets as not dirty. Signed-off-by:

commit 01ad8063 upstream. On TrimSlice, Tegra's USB1 port may be routed to either an external micro USB port, or an internal USB->SATA bridge for SSD or HDD. This muxing is controlled by a GPIO. Whilst not strictly a VBUS GPIO, the TrimSlice board files caused this GPIO to be set appropriately to enable the SATA bridge by passing it as the VBUS GPIO to the USB driver. Echo this same configuration in device tree to enable the SATA bridge. An alternative might be to implement a full USB bus mux driver. However, that seems over-complex right now. Signed-off-by:

commit b110547e upstream. Commit 9fa2df6b (ARM: OMAP2+: OPP: allow OPP enumeration to continue if device is not present) makes the logic: for (i = 0; i < opp_def_size; i++) { <snip> if (!oh || !oh->od) { <snip> continue; } <snip> opp_def++; } In short, the moment we hit a "Bad OPP", we end up looping the list comparing against the bad opp definition pointer for the rest of the iteration count. Instead, increment opp_def in the for loop itself and allow continue to be used in code without much thought so that we check the next set of OPP definition pointers :) Cc: Steve Sakoman <steve@sakoman.com> Cc: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> Signed-off-by:

commit 940f5d47 upstream. When we call scsi_unprep_request() the command associated with the request gets destroyed and therefore drops its reference on the device. If this was the only reference, the device may get released and we end up with a NULL pointer deref when we call blk_requeue_request. Reported-by:

commit 67bd9413 upstream. Use blk_queue_dead() to test whether the queue is dead instead of !sdev. Since scsi_prep_fn() may be invoked concurrently with __scsi_remove_device(), keep the queuedata (sdev) pointer in __scsi_remove_device(). This patch fixes a kernel oops that can be triggered by USB device removal. See also http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg56254.html. Other changes included in this patch: - Swap the blk_cleanup_queue() and kfree() calls in scsi_host_dev_release() to make that code easier to grasp. - Remove the queue dead check from scsi_run_queue() since the queue state can change anyway at any point in that function where the queue lock is not held. - Remove the queue dead check from the start of scsi_request_fn() since it is redundant with the scsi_device_online() check.

commit 57fc2e33 upstream. Rapid ata hotplug on a libsas controller results in cases where libsas is waiting indefinitely on eh to perform an ata probe. A race exists between scsi_schedule_eh() and scsi_restart_operations() in the case when scsi_restart_operations() issues i/o to other devices in the sas domain. When this happens the host state transitions from SHOST_RECOVERY (set by scsi_schedule_eh) back to SHOST_RUNNING and ->host_busy is non-zero so we put the eh thread to sleep even though ->host_eh_scheduled is active. Before putting the error handler to sleep we need to check if the host_state needs to return to SHOST_RECOVERY for another trip through eh. Since i/o that is released by scsi_restart_operations has been blocked for at least one eh cycle, this implementation allows those i/o's to run before another eh cycle starts to discourage hung task timeouts.

The result is random discovery failures depending on configuration. Calls to sas_ex_join_wide_port are the source of the trouble as its return value is errantly assigned to 'res'. Convert it to bool and stop returning its result up the stack. Tested-by:

commit 6bd825f0 upstream. In order to enable the DIU video controller on the P1022DS, the FPGA needs to be switched to "indirect mode", where the localbus is disabled and the FPGA is accessed via writes to localbus chip select signals CS0 and CS1. To obtain the address of CS0 and CS1, the platform driver uses an "indirect pixis mode" device tree node. This node assumes that the localbus 'ranges' property is sorted in chip-select order. That is, reg value 0 maps to CS0, reg value 1 maps to CS1, etc. This is how the 'ranges' property is supposed to be arranged. Unfortunately, the 'ranges' property is often mis-arranged, and not just on the P1022DS. Linux normally does not care, since it does not program the localbus. But the indirect-mode code on the P1022DS does care. The "proper" fix is to have U-Boot fix the 'ranges' property, but this would be too cumbersome. The names and 'reg' properties of all the localbus devices would also need to be updated, and determining which localbus device maps to which chip select is board-specific. Instead, we determine the CS0/CS1 base addresses the same way that U-boot does -- by reading the BRx registers directly and mapping them to physical addresses. This code is simpler and more reliable, and it does not require a U-boot or device tree change. Since the indirect pixis device tree node is no longer needed, the node is deleted from the DTS.

commit 473b095a upstream. For SD hosts using retuning mode 1, when retuning timer expired, it will need to do retuning in sdhci_request before processing the actual request. But the retuning command is fixed: cmd19 for SD card and cmd21 for eMMC card, so we can't use the original request's command to do the tuning. And since the tuning command depends on the card type attached to the host, we will need to know the card type to use the correct tuning command. Signed-off-by:

commit 55fc05b7 upstream. At http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/11980 we have determined that the Marvell CaFe SDHCI controller reports bad card presence during resume. It reports that no card is present even when it is. This is a regression -- resume worked back around 2.6.37. Around 400ms after resuming, a "card inserted" interrupt is generated, at which point it starts reporting presence. Work around this hardware oddity by setting the SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_CARD_DETECTION flag. Thanks to Chris Ball for helping with diagnosis. Signed-off-by:

commit bf6932f4 upstream. From Al Viro: BTW, speaking of struct file treatment related to sockets - there's this piece of code in iscsi: /* * The SCTP stack needs struct socket->file. */ if ((np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_TCP) || (np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_UDP)) { if (!new_sock->file) { new_sock->file = kzalloc( sizeof(struct file), GFP_KERNEL); For one thing, as far as I can see it'not true - sctp does *not* depend on socket->file being non-NULL; it does, in one place, check socket->file->f_flags for O_NONBLOCK, but there it treats NULL socket->file as "flag not set". Which is the case here anyway - the fake struct file created in __iscsi_target_login_thread() (and in iscsi_target_setup_login_socket(), with the same excuse) do *not* get that flag set. Moreover, it's a bloody serious violation of a bunch of asserts in VFS; all struct file instances should come from filp_cachep, via get_empty_filp() (or alloc_file(), which is a wrapper for it). FWIW, I'm very tempted to do this and be done with the entire mess: Signed-off-by:

Merge emailed kgdb dmesg fixups patches from Anton Vorontsov: "The dmesg command appears to be broken after the printk rework. The old logic in the kdb code makes no sense in terms of current printk/logging storage format, and KDB simply hangs forever upon entering 'dmesg' command. The first patch revives the command by switching to kmsg_dumper iterator. As a side-effect, the code is now much more simpler. A few changes were needed in the printk.c: we needed unlocked variant of the kmsg_dumper iterator, but these can surely wait for 3.6. It's probably too late even for the first patch to go to 3.5, but I'll try to convince otherwise. :-) Here we go: - The current code is broken for sure, and has no hope to work at all. It is a regression - The new code works for me, and probably works for everyone else; - If it compiles (and I urge everyone to compile-test it on your setup), it hardly can make things worse." * Merge emailed patches from Anton Vorontsov: (4 commits) kdb: Switch to nolock variants of kmsg_dump functions printk: Implement some unlocked kmsg_dump functions printk: Remove kdb_syslog_data kdb: Revive dmesg command -

We can't guarantee that REQ_DISCARD on dm-mirror zeroes the data even if the underlying disks support zero on discard. So this patch sets ti->discard_zeroes_data_unsupported. For example, if the mirror is in the process of resynchronizing, it may happen that kcopyd reads a piece of data, then discard is sent on the same area and then kcopyd writes the piece of data to another leg. Consequently, the data is not zeroed. The flag was made available by commit 983c7db3 (dm crypt: always disable discard_zeroes_data). Signed-off-by:

When process_discard receives a partial discard that doesn't cover a full block, it sends this discard down to that block. Unfortunately, the block can be shared and the discard would corrupt the other snapshots sharing this block. This patch detects block sharing and ends the discard with success when sending it to the shared block. The above change means that if the device supports discard it can't be guaranteed that a discard request zeroes data. Therefore, we set ti->discard_zeroes_data_unsupported. Thin target discard support with this bug arrived in commit 104655fd (dm thin: support discards). Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a crash when a discard request is sent during mirror recovery. Firstly, some background. Generally, the following sequence happens during mirror synchronization: - function do_recovery is called - do_recovery calls dm_rh_recovery_prepare - dm_rh_recovery_prepare uses a semaphore to limit the number simultaneously recovered regions (by default the semaphore value is 1, so only one region at a time is recovered) - dm_rh_recovery_prepare calls __rh_recovery_prepare, __rh_recovery_prepare asks the log driver for the next region to recover. Then, it sets the region state to DM_RH_RECOVERING. If there are no pending I/Os on this region, the region is added to quiesced_regions list. If there are pending I/Os, the region is not added to any list. It is added to the quiesced_regions list later (by dm_rh_dec function) when all I/Os finish. - when the region is on quiesced_regions list, there are no I/Os in flight on this region. The region is popped from the list in dm_rh_recovery_start function. Then, a kcopyd job is started in the recover function. - when the kcopyd job finishes, recovery_complete is called. It calls dm_rh_recovery_end. dm_rh_recovery_end adds the region to recovered_regions or failed_recovered_regions list (depending on whether the copy operation was successful or not). The above mechanism assumes that if the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, no new I/Os are started on this region. When I/O is started, dm_rh_inc_pending is called, which increases reg->pending count. When I/O is finished, dm_rh_dec is called. It decreases reg->pending count. If the count is zero and the region was in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, dm_rh_dec adds it to the quiesced_regions list. Consequently, if we call dm_rh_inc_pending/dm_rh_dec while the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, it could be added to quiesced_regions list multiple times or it could be added to this list when kcopyd is copying data (it is assumed that the region is not on any list while kcopyd does its jobs). This results in memory corruption and crash. There already exist bypasses for REQ_FLUSH requests: REQ_FLUSH requests do not belong to any region, so they are always added to the sync list in do_writes. dm_rh_inc_pending does not increase count for REQ_FLUSH requests. In mirror_end_io, dm_rh_dec is never called for REQ_FLUSH requests. These bypasses avoid the crash possibility described above. These bypasses were improperly implemented for REQ_DISCARD when the mirror target gained discard support in commit 5fc2ffea (dm raid1: support discard). In do_writes, REQ_DISCARD requests is always added to the sync queue and immediately dispatched (even if the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING). However, dm_rh_inc and dm_rh_dec is called for REQ_DISCARD resusts. So it violates the rule that no I/Os are started on DM_RH_RECOVERING regions, and causes the list corruption described above. This patch changes it so that REQ_DISCARD requests follow the same path as REQ_FLUSH. This avoids the crash. Reference: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/837607Signed-off-by:

It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then the XOR should be preformed with all zeros. Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't like the kind of bugs this calls for. Fix both birds, by returning a global zero_page, if offset is beyond i_size. TODO: Change the API to ->__r4w_get_page() so a NULL can be returned without being considered as error, since XOR API treats NULL entries as zero_pages. [Bug since 3.2.

The read-4-write pages are locked in address ascending order. But where unlocked in a way easiest for coding. Fix that, locks should be released in opposite order of locking, .i.e descending address order. I have not hit this dead-lock. It was found by inspecting the dbug print-outs. I suspect there is an higher lock at caller that protects us, but fix it regardless. Signed-off-by:
