commit a6b5e88c upstream. During resume from system suspend the 'data' field of struct pnp_dev in pnpacpi_set_resources() may be a stale pointer, due to removal of the associated ACPI device node object in the previous suspend-resume cycle. This happens, for example, if a dockable machine is booted in the docking station and then suspended and resumed and suspended again. If that happens, pnpacpi_build_resource_template() called from pnpacpi_set_resources() attempts to use that pointer and crashes. However, pnpacpi_set_resources() actually checks the device's ACPI handle, attempts to find the ACPI device node object attached to it and returns an error code if that fails, so in fact it knows what the correct value of dev->data should be. Use this observation to update dev->data with the correct value if necessary and dump a call trace if that's the case (once). We still need to fix the root cause of this issue, but preventing systems from crashing because of it is an improvement too. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 4000e626 upstream. Add a quirk to correctly report battery capacity on 2010 and 2011 Lenovo Thinkpad models. The affected models that I tested (x201, t410, t410s, and x220) exhibit a problem where, when battery capacity reporting unit is mAh, the values being reported are wrong. Pre-2010 and 2012 models appear to always report in mWh and are thus unaffected. Also, in mid-2012 Lenovo issued a BIOS update for the 2011 models that fixes the issue (tested on x220 with a post-1.29 BIOS). No such update is available for the 2010 models, so those still need this patch. Problem description: for some reason, the affected Thinkpads switch the reporting unit between mAh and mWh; generally, mAh is used when a laptop is plugged in and mWh when it's unplugged, although a suspend/resume or rmmod/modprobe is needed for the switch to take effect. The values reported in mAh are *always* wrong. This does not appear to be a kernel regression; I believe that the values were never reported correctly. I tested back to kernel 2.6.34, with multiple machines and BIOS versions. Simply plugging a laptop into mains before turning it on is enough to reproduce the problem. Here's a sample /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info from Thinkpad x220 (before a BIOS update) with a 4-cell battery: present: yes design capacity: 2886 mAh last full capacity: 2909 mAh battery technology: rechargeable design voltage: 14800 mV design capacity warning: 145 mAh design capacity low: 13 mAh cycle count: 0 capacity granularity 1: 1 mAh capacity granularity 2: 1 mAh model number: 42T4899 serial number: 21064 battery type: LION OEM info: SANYO Once the laptop switches the unit to mWh (unplug from mains, suspend, resume), the output changes to: present: yes design capacity: 28860 mWh last full capacity: 29090 mWh battery technology: rechargeable design voltage: 14800 mV design capacity warning: 1454 mWh design capacity low: 200 mWh cycle count: 0 capacity granularity 1: 1 mWh capacity granularity 2: 1 mWh model number: 42T4899 serial number: 21064 battery type: LION OEM info: SANYO Can you see how the values for "design capacity", etc., differ by a factor of 10 instead of 14.8 (the design voltage of this battery)? On the battery itself it says: 14.8V, 1.95Ah, 29Wh, so clearly the values reported in mWh are correct and the ones in mAh are not. My guess is that this problem has been around ever since those machines were released, but because the most common Thinkpad batteries are rated at 10.8V, the error (8%) is small enough that it simply hasn't been noticed or at least nobody could be bothered to look into it. My patch works around the problem by adjusting the incorrectly reported mAh values by "10000 / design_voltage". The patch also has code to figure out if it should be activated or not. It only activates on Lenovo Thinkpads, only when the unit is mAh, and, as an extra precaution, only when the battery capacity reported through ACPI does not match what is reported through DMI (I've never encountered a machine where the first two conditions would be true but the last would not, but better safe than sorry). I've been using this patch for close to a year on several systems without any problems. References: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41062Acked-by:

commit 18a2f371 upstream. This fixes a regression in 3.7-rc, which has since gone into stable. Commit 00442ad0 ("mempolicy: fix a memory corruption by refcount imbalance in alloc_pages_vma()") changed get_vma_policy() to raise the refcount on a shmem shared mempolicy; whereas shmem_alloc_page() went on expecting alloc_page_vma() to drop the refcount it had acquired. This deserves a rework: but for now fix the leak in shmem_alloc_page(). Hugh: shmem_swapin() did not need a fix, but surely it's clearer to use the same refcounting there as in shmem_alloc_page(), delete its onstack mempolicy, and the strange mpol_cond_copy() and __mpol_cond_copy() - those were invented to let swapin_readahead() make an unknown number of calls to alloc_pages_vma() with one mempolicy; but since 00442ad0, alloc_pages_vma() has kept refcount in balance, so now no problem.

commit 387870f2 upstream. dmapool always calls dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_ATOMIC flag, regardless the flags provided by the caller. This causes excessive pruning of emergency memory pools without any good reason. Additionaly, on ARM architecture any driver which is using dmapools will sooner or later trigger the following error: "ERROR: 256 KiB atomic DMA coherent pool is too small! Please increase it with coherent_pool= kernel parameter!". Increasing the coherent pool size usually doesn't help much and only delays such error, because all GFP_ATOMIC DMA allocations are always served from the special, very limited memory pool. This patch changes the dmapool code to correctly use gfp flags provided by the dmapool caller. Reported-by:

commit fc4b514f upstream. 8852aac2 ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay") unexpectedly uncovered a very nasty abuse of delayed_work in megaraid - it allocated work_struct, casted it to delayed_work and then pass that into queue_delayed_work(). Previously, this was okay because 0 @delay short-circuited to queue_work() before doing anything with delayed_work. 8852aac2 moved 0 @delay test into __queue_delayed_work() after sanity check on delayed_work making megaraid trigger BUG_ON(). Although megaraid is already fixed by c1d390d8 ("megaraid: fix BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work"), this patch converts BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s so that such abusers, if there are more, trigger warning but don't crash the machine.

commit e69b742a upstream. gcc (rightfully) complains that we are accessing beyond the end of the fpr array (we do, to access the fpscr). The only sane thing to do (whether anything in that code can be called remotely sane is debatable) is to special case fpscr and handle it as a separate statement. I initially tried to do it it by making the array access conditional to index < PT_FPSCR and using a 3rd else leg but for some reason gcc was unable to understand it and still spewed the warning. So I ended up with something a tad more intricated but it seems to build on 32-bit and on 64-bit with and without VSX. Signed-off-by:

commit 39141ddf upstream. After commit 846a1368 ("ARM: vfp: fix saving d16-d31 vfp registers on v6+ kernels"), the OMAP 2430SDP board started crashing during boot with omap2plus_defconfig: [ 3.875122] mmcblk0: mmc0:e624 SD04G 3.69 GiB [ 3.915954] mmcblk0: p1 [ 4.086639] Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] SMP ARM [ 4.093719] Modules linked in: [ 4.096954] CPU: 0 Not tainted (3.6.0-02232-g759e00b8 #570) [ 4.103149] PC is at vfp_reload_hw+0x1c/0x44 [ 4.107666] LR is at __und_usr_fault_32+0x0/0x8 It turns out that the context save/restore fix unmasked a latent bug in commit 5aaf2544 ("ARM: 6203/1: Make VFPv3 usable on ARMv6"). When CONFIG_VFPv3 is set, but the kernel is booted on a pre-VFPv3 core, the code attempts to save and restore the d16-d31 VFP registers. These are only present on non-D16 VFPv3+, so this results in an undefined instruction exception. The code didn't crash before commit 846a1368 because the save and restore code was only touching d0-d15, present on all VFP. Fix by implementing a request from Russell King to add a new HWCAP flag that affirmatively indicates the presence of the d16-d31 registers: http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=135013547905283&w=2 and some feedback from Måns to clarify the name of the HWCAP flag.

commit 6d935928 upstream. Sometimes, warnings about ioctls to partition happen often enough that they form majority of the warnings in the kernel log and users complain. In some cases warnings are about ioctls such as SG_IO so it's not good to get rid of the warnings completely as they can ease debugging of userspace problems when ioctl is refused. Since I have seen warnings from lots of commands, including some proprietary userspace applications, I don't think disallowing the ioctls for processes with CAP_SYS_RAWIO will happen in the near future if ever. So lets just stop warning for processes with CAP_SYS_RAWIO for which ioctl is allowed. Acked-by:

commit 5d3df935 upstream. Fix the acknowledgement of PMU interrupts on Dove: some Dove hardware has not been sensibly designed so that interrupts can be handled in a race free manner. The PMU is one such instance. The pending (aka 'cause') register is a bunch of RW bits, meaning that these bits can be both cleared and set by software (confirmed on the Armada-510 on the cubox.) Hardware sets the appropriate bit when an interrupt is asserted, and software is required to clear the bits which are to be processed. If we write ~(1 << bit), then we end up asserting every other interrupt except the one we're processing. So, we need to do a read-modify-write cycle to clear the asserted bit. However, any interrupts which occur in the middle of this cycle will also be written back as zero, which will also clear the new interrupts. The upshot of this is: there is _no_ way to safely clear down interrupts in this register (and other similarly behaving interrupt pending registers on this device.) The patch below at least stops us creating new interrupts. Signed-off-by:

commit 52965cc0 upstream. Some bcm5974 trackpads have a physical button beneath the physical surface. This patch sets the property bit so user space applications can detect the trackpad type and act accordingly. Signed-off-by:

commit 29e9bf18 upstream. Thermal throttle and power limit events are not defined as MCE errors in x86 architecture and should not generate MCE errors in mcelog. Current kernel generates fake software defined MCE errors for these events. This may confuse users because they may think the machine has real MCE errors while actually only thermal throttle or power limit events happen. To make it worse, buggy firmware on some platforms may falsely generate the events. Therefore, kernel reports MCE errors which users think as real hardware errors. Although the firmware bugs should be fixed, on the other hand, kernel should not report MCE errors either. So mcelog is not a good mechanism to report these events. To report the events, we count them in respective counters (core_power_limit_count, package_power_limit_count, core_throttle_count, and package_throttle_count) in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/thermal_throttle/. Users can check the counters for each event on each CPU. Please note that all CPU's on one package report duplicate counters. It's user application's responsibity to retrieve a package level counter for one package. This patch doesn't report package level power limit, core level power limit, and package level thermal throttle events in mcelog. When the events happen, only report them in respective counters in sysfs. Since core level thermal throttle has been legacy code in kernel for a while and users accepted it as MCE error in mcelog, core level thermal throttle is still reported in mcelog. In the mean time, the event is counted in a counter in sysfs as well. Signed-off-by:

commit 8ffeb9b0 upstream. In get_sample_period(), unsigned long is not enough: watchdog_thresh * 2 * (NSEC_PER_SEC / 5) case1: watchdog_thresh is 10 by default, the sample value will be: 0xEE6B2800 case2: set watchdog_thresh is 20, the sample value will be: 0x1 DCD6 5000 In case2, we need use u64 to express the sample period. Otherwise, changing the threshold thru proc often can not be successful. Signed-off-by:

commit 5260e458 upstream. Make sure generic close is called at close. The driver relies on the generic write implementation but did not call generic close. Note that the call to kill the read urb is not redundant, as mct_u232 uses an interrupt urb from the second port as the read urb and that generic close therefore fails to kill it. Compile-only tested. Signed-off-by:
