Some new machines use the "ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory" property to provide memory layout information, rather than via memory nodes. There is a bug in the code to parse this property for start addresses over 4GB; we store the start address in an unsigned int, which means we throw away the high bits and add apparently duplicate regions. This results in a BUG() in free_bootmem_core(). This fixes it by using an unsigned long instead.

In smp_call_function_map(), num_cpus is set to the number of online CPUs minus one. However, if the CPU mask does not include all CPUs (except the one we're running on), the routine will hang in the first while() loop until the 8 second timeout occurs. The num_cpus should be set to the number of CPUs specified in the mask passed into the routine, after we've made any modifications to the mask. With this change, we can also get rid of the call to cpus_empty() and avoid adding another pass through the bitmask.

This patch fixes affinity reference point placement, which was not being done in some situations, after the introduction of node_allowed() calls. The previously used parameter, 'ctx', is just the iterator of the previous list_for_each_entry_reverse loop, and its value might be invalid at the end of the loop. Also, the right context to seek for information when defining the reference ctx location _is_ the reference ctx.

The code for mapping special 4k pages on kernels using a 64kB base page size was missing the code for doing the RPN (real page number) manipulation when inserting the hardware PTE in the secondary hash bucket. It needs the same code as has already been added to the code that inserts the HPTE in the primary hash bucket. This adds it. Spotted by Ben Herrenschmidt. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Paul Mackerras authored
The real page number field in our PTEs when configured for 64kB pages is currently 32 bits, which turns out to be not quite enough for the resources that the eHCA driver wants to map. This expands the RPN field to include 2 adjacent, previously-unused bits. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Acked-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The nand_base.c driver implicitly casts the uint32_t eccpos array to 'int *', which is not only not guaranteed to be the same sign as the source, but is not guaranteed to be the same size. Fix by changing nand_base.c to use uint32_t referencing the eccpos fields. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

When we mark block bad we have to get chip because this involves writing to the page's OOB. We hit this bug in UBI - we observed random obscure crashes when it marks block bad from the background thread and there is some parallel task which utilizes flash. This patch also adds a TODO note about BBT table protection which it seems does not exist.

1. The only place that RTPRIO_TO_LOAD_WEIGHT() is used is in the call to move_tasks() in the function active_load_balance() and its purpose here is just to make sure that the load to be moved is big enough to ensure that exactly one task is moved (if there's one available). This can be accomplished by using ULONG_MAX instead and this allows RTPRIO_TO_LOAD_WEIGHT() to be deleted. 2. This, in turn, allows PRIO_TO_LOAD_WEIGHT() to be deleted. 3. This allows load_weight() to be deleted which allows TIME_SLICE_NICE_ZERO to be deleted along with the comment above it.

Jesper Juhl authored
If, in usb_hid_configure(), we fail to allocate storage for 'usbhid', "if (!(usbhid = kzalloc(sizeof(struct usbhid_device), GFP_KERNEL)))", then we'll jump to the 'fail:' label where we have this code: usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbin); usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbout); usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbctrl); Since we got here because we couldn't allocate storage for 'usbhid', what we have here is a NULL pointer dereference - ouch... This patch solves that little problem by adding a new 'fail_no_usbhid:' label after the problematic calls to usb_free_urb() and jumps to that one instead, in the problem case.
