If we can't read the firmware for a device from the disk, and yet the device already has a valid firmware image in it, we don't want to replace the firmware with something invalid. So check the version number to be less than the current one to verify this is the correct thing to do.

The patch with title below makes reference count of usb serial module always more than one after driver is bound. USB-BKL: Remove BKL use for usb serial driver probing In fact, the patch above only replaces lock_kernel() with try_module_get() , and does not use module_put() to do what unlock_kernel() did, so casue leak of reference count of usb serial module and the module can not be unloaded after serial driver is bound with device. This patch fixes the issue, also simplifies such things: -only call try_module_get() once in the entry of usb_serial_probe() -only call module_put() once in the exit of usb_serial_probe Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> Cc: Johan Hovold <jhovold@gmail.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

I recently bought a i-gotU USB GPS, and whilst hunting around for linux support discovered this post by you back in 2009: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-usb/2009/3/12/5148644 >Try the navman driver instead. You can either add the device id to the > driver and rebuild it, or do this before you plug the device in: > modprobe navman > echo -n "0x0df7 0x0900" > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/navman/new_id > > and then plug your device in and see if that works. I can confirm that the navman driver works with the right device IDs on my i-gotU GT-600, which has the same device IDs. Attached is a patch adding the IDs.

The ISP1760 has some timing requirements where it has to delay a short period after a write to a register has started. However, this delay is from the time the write hits the USB chip (the ISP1760), not from the time where the processor started processing the write. So on a quick enough processor, it is sometimes possible for the write to not hit the device before we start delaying, and we then violate the part's timing requirements, so things stop working. To avoid all this, insert a write barrier after the register write and before the timing delay/register read so we can guarantee we only start counting time after the write has hit the device.

We're trying to test for the the end of the loop here. "format" is never NULL. We don't know what "format->fcc" is because we're past the end of the loop and I think "fmt->fmt.pix.pixelformat" comes from the user so we don't know what that is either. It works, but it's cleaner to just test to see if (i == ARRAY_SIZE(uvc_formats).

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.

Apparently, the check for a 6-byte ID string introduced by commit 426c457a ("mtd: nand: extend NAND flash detection to new MLC chips") is NOT sufficient to determine whether or not a Samsung chip uses their new MLC detection scheme or the old, standard scheme.

Chapter 6 is right about mutex_trylock, but chapter 10 wasn't. This error was introduced during semaphore-to-mutex conversion of the Unreliable guide. :-) If user context which performs mutex_lock() or mutex_trylock() is preempted by interrupt context which performs mutex_trylock() on the same mutex instance, a deadlock occurs. This is because these functions do not disable local IRQs when they operate on mutex->wait_lock.

dump_tasks() needs to hold the RCU read lock around its access of the target task's UID. To this end it should use task_uid() as it only needs that one thing from the creds. The fact that dump_tasks() holds tasklist_lock is insufficient to prevent the target process replacing its credentials on another CPU.
