On PPC64, put_sigset_t converts a sigset_t to a compat_sigset_t before copying it to userspace. There is a typo in the case that we have 4 words to copy, meaning that we corrupt the compat_sigset_t. It appears that _NSIG_WORDS can't be greater than 2 at the moment so this code is probably always optimised away anyway.

The Documentation/memory-barriers.txt document requires that atomic operations that return a value act as a memory barrier both before and after the actual atomic operation. Our current implementation doesn't guarantee this. More specifically, while a load following the isync can not be issued before stwcx. has completed, that completion doesn't architecturally means that the result of stwcx. is visible to other processors (or any previous stores for that matter) (typically, the other processors L1 caches can still hold the old value). This has caused an actual crash in RCU torture testing on Power 7 This fixes it by changing those atomic ops to use new macros instead of RELEASE/ACQUIRE barriers, called ATOMIC_ENTRY and ATMOIC_EXIT barriers, which are then defined respectively to lwsync and sync. I haven't had a chance to measure the performance impact (or rather what I measured with kernel compiles is in the noise, I yet have to find a more precise benchmark) Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: Paul E.

Recent binutils refuses to assemble AltiVec opcodes when in e500/SPE mode, as some of those opcodes alias the "SPE" instructions. This triggers an ancient binutils version check even when building a kernel with CONFIG_ALTIVEC disabled. In theory, the check could be conditionalized on CONFIG_ALTIVEC, but in practice it has long outlived its utility. It is virtually impossible to find binutils older than 2.12.1 (released 2002) in the wild anymore. Even ancient RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 has binutils-2.14. To fix the kernel build when done natively on e500 systems with this new binutils, the test is simply removed.

With the introduction of CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS user space debug is broken on Book-E 64-bit parts that support delayed debug events. When switch_booke_debug_regs() sets DBCR0 we'll start getting debug events as MSR_DE is also set and we aren't able to handle debug events from kernel space. We can remove the hack that always enables MSR_DE and loads up DBCR0 and just utilize switch_booke_debug_regs() to get user space debug working again. We still need to handle critical/debug exception stacks & proper save/restore of state for those exception levles to support debug events from kernel space like we have on 32-bit.

Encrypted keys are encrypted/decrypted using either a trusted or user-defined key type, which is referred to as the 'master' key. The master key may be of type trusted iff the trusted key is builtin or both the trusted key and encrypted keys are built as modules. This patch resolves the build dependency problem. - Use "masterkey-$(CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS)-$(CONFIG_ENCRYPTED_KEYS)" construct to encapsulate the above logic. (Suggested by Dimtry Kasatkin.) - Fixing the encrypted-keys Makefile, results in a module name change from encrypted.ko to encrypted-keys.ko. - Add module dependency for request_trusted_key() definition Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com>

spec->cur_adc isn't set until cs_capture_pcm_prepare() is called although the driver tries to select the connection at init time and at auto-mic switch. This results in the access to the widget NID 0, which is obviously invalid, also a wrong capture source. This patch fixes the issue by issuing the connect-select verb conditionally at appropriate places.

This is just a cleanup patch to silence a static checker warning. The problem is that we cap "nr_iovecs" so it can't be larger than "UIO_MAXIOV" but we don't check for negative values. It turns out this is prevented at other layers, but logically it doesn't make sense to have negative nr_iovecs so making it unsigned is nicer.

A long time ago, probably in 2002, one of the distros, or maybe more than one, loaded block drivers prior to loading the SCSI mid layer. This meant that the cciss driver, being a block driver, could not engage the SCSI mid layer at init time without panicking, and relied on being poked by a userland program after the system was up (and the SCSI mid layer was therefore present) to engage the SCSI mid layer. This is no longer the case, and cciss can safely rely on the SCSI mid layer being present at init time and engage the SCSI mid layer straight away. This means that users will see their tape drives and medium changers at driver load time without need for a script in /etc/rc.d that does this: for x in /proc/driver/cciss/cciss* do echo "engage scsi" > $x done However, if no tape drives or medium changers are detected, the SCSI mid layer will not be engaged. If a tape drive or medium change is later hot-added to the system it will then be necessary to use the above script or similar for the device(s) to be acceesible. Signed-off-by: Stephen M.

Fixes the PS3 bootup hang introduced in 3.0-rc1 by: commit 317f3941 sched: Move the second half of ttwu() to the remote cpu Move the PS3's LV1 EOI call lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() from ps3_chip_eoi() to ps3_get_irq() for IPI messages. If lv1_send_event_locally() is called between a previous call to lv1_send_event_locally() and the coresponding call to lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() the second event will not be delivered to the target cpu. The PS3's SMP IPIs are implemented using lv1_send_event_locally(), so if two IPI messages of the same type are sent to the same target in a relatively short period of time the second IPI event can become lost when lv1_end_of_interrupt_ext() is called from ps3_chip_eoi().

The trace_hardirqs_off will use CALLER_ADDR0 and CALLER_ADDR1. If an exception occurs in user mode, there is only one stack frame on the stack and accessing the CALLER_ADDR1 will causes the following call trace. So we create a dummy stack frame to make trace_hardirqs_off happy.

I had to debug a strange situation where all manner of things were failing. SMT threads, storage and network were all completely broken. The root cause was we couldn't find enough memory to instantiate RTAS - this was a network install so the initrd was huge. Instead of limping along and failing in mysterious ways we should just panic up front if RTAS exists and we can't allocate space for it.
