The ATAG_BOARDINFO is intended to hand over the information bd->bi_board_number from u-boot to the kernel. This piece of information can be used to implement some kind of board identification while booting the kernel. Therefore it is placed in .initdata section and can be accessed via the new symbol board_number only while initializing the kernel. Signed-off-by:

platform_get_irq returns -ENXIO on failure, so !int_irq was probably always true. Better use (int)int_irq <= 0. Note that a return value of zero is still handled as error even though this could mean irq0. This is a followup to 305b3228 that changed the return value of platform_get_irq from 0 to -ENXIO on error. Acked-by:

We can delete the code that checks to see if we're sending an ignored signal to init because force_sig_info() already handles this case. force_sig_info() will kill init even if the signal handler is SIG_DFL and the scenario described in the comment where init might "generate the same exception over and over again" cannot occur (force_sig_info() clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE to ensure that init will die). Also, the use of is_global_init() is not correct in the multhreaded case, as Oleg Nesterov explains, "is_global_init() is not right in theory, /sbin/init can be multithreaded. And, this doesn't cover the sub-namespace inits... I'd suggest to check SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, but looking closer I think you can simply remove this code." It seems this code was copied from arch/powerpc in March 2007 in commit 623b0355 "[AVR32] Clean up exception handling code" but the code was deleted from arch/powerpc in November 2009 in commit a0592d42 "powerpc: kill the obsolete code under is_global_init()" So catch up with powerpc and delete the bogus code.

Gaah. When commit be85bcca reverted the export of file system uuid via /proc/<pid>/mountinfo, it also unintentionally removed the s_uuid field in struct super_block. I didn't mean to do that, since filesystems have been taught to fill it in (and we want to keep it for future re-introduction in the mountinfo file). Stupid of me. This adds it back in.

nfs_scan_commit() is called with the inode->i_lock held, but it then calls __mark_inode_dirty() while still holding the lock. This causes a deadlock. Push the inode->i_lock into nfs_scan_commit() so it can protect only the parts of the code it needs to and can be dropped before the call to __mark_inode_dirty() to avoid the deadlock. Signed-off-by:

Commit 53a7706d ("mlock: do not hold mmap_sem for extended periods of time") changed mlock() to care about the exact number of pages that __get_user_pages() had brought it. Before, it would only care about errors. And that doesn't work, because we also handled one page specially in __mlock_vma_pages_range(), namely the stack guard page. So when that case was handled, the number of pages that the function returned was off by one. In particular, it could be zero, and then the caller would end up not making any progress at all. Rather than try to fix up that off-by-one error for the mlock case specially, this just moves the logic to handle the stack guard page into__get_user_pages() itself, thus making all the counts come out right automatically.

This reverts commit 93f1c20b. It turns out that libmount misparses it because it adds a '-' character in the uuid string, which libmount then incorrectly confuses with the separator string (" - ") at the end of all the optional arguments. Upstream libmount (in the util-linux tree) has been fixed, but until that fix actually percolates up to users, we'd better not expose this change in the kernel. Let's revisit this later (possibly by exposing the UUID without any '-' characters in it, avoiding the user-space bug). Reported-by:

The new BIOS has a slightly different EC version string.

The EC version string is 6QHT28WW-1.09. The driver was requiring that both of these have 'WW' in positions 6 and 7. I don't know what the significance of having 'V1' there instead is, but removing the test makes the driver load on my machine. Signed-off-by:

This is more or less the same patch as before, but with some merge conflicts fixed up. If a process has a dirty page mapped into its page tables, then it has the ability to change it while the client is trying to write the data out to the server. If that happens after the signature has been calculated then that signature will then be wrong, and the server will likely reset the TCP connection. This patch adds a page_mkwrite handler for CIFS that simply takes the page lock. Because the page lock is held over the life of writepage and writepages, this prevents the page from becoming writeable until the write call has completed. With this, we can also remove the "sign_zero_copy" module option and always inline the pages when writing. Signed-off-by:

In order for MFD drivers to fetch their cell pointer but also their platform data one, an mfd cell pointer is added to the platform_device structure. That allows all MFD sub devices drivers to be MFD agnostic, unless they really need to access their MFD cell data. Most of them don't, especially the ones for IPs used by both MFD and non MFD SoCs.

Warn once if default security (ntlm) requested. We will update the default to the stronger security mechanism (ntlmv2) in 2.6.41. Kerberos is also stronger than ntlm, but more servers support ntlmv2 and ntlmv2 does not require an upcall, so ntlmv2 is a better default. Reviewed-by:

When the TCP_Server_Info is first allocated and connected, tcpStatus == CifsGood means that the NEGOTIATE_PROTOCOL request has completed and the socket is ready for other calls. cifs_reconnect however sets tcpStatus to CifsGood as soon as the socket is reconnected and the optional RFC1001 session setup is done. We have no clear way to tell the difference between these two states, and we need to know this in order to know whether we can send an echo or not. Resolve this by adding a new statusEnum value -- CifsNeedNegotiate. When the socket has been connected but has not yet had a NEGOTIATE_PROTOCOL request done, set it to this value. Once the NEGOTIATE is done, cifs_negotiate_protocol will set tcpStatus to CifsGood. This also fixes and cleans the logic in cifs_reconnect and cifs_reconnect_tcon. The old code checked for specific states when what it really wants to know is whether the state has actually changed from CifsNeedReconnect. Reported-and-Tested-by:

While testing my patchset to fix asynchronous writes, I hit a bunch of signature problems when testing with signing on. The problem seems to be that signature checks on receive can be running at the same time as a process that is sending, or even that multiple receives can be checking signatures at the same time, clobbering the same data structures. While we're at it, clean up the comments over cifs_calculate_signature and add a note that the srv_mutex should be held when calling this function. This patch seems to fix the problems for me, but I'm not clear on whether it's the best approach. If it is, then this should probably go to stable too.

Minor revision to the original patch. Don't abuse the __le16 variable on the stack by casting it to wchar_t and handing it off to char2uni. Declare an actual wchar_t on the stack instead. This fixes a valid sparse warning. Fix the spelling of UNI_ASTERISK. Eliminate the unneeded len_remaining variable in cifsConvertToUCS. Also, as David Howells points out. We were better off making cifsConvertToUCS *not* use put_unaligned_le16 since it means that we can't optimize the mapped characters at compile time. Switch them instead to use cpu_to_le16, and simply use put_unaligned to set them in the string. Reported-and-acked-by:

Commit 522440ed made cifs set backing_dev_info on the mapping attached to new inodes. This change caused a fairly significant read performance regression, as cifs started doing page-sized reads exclusively. By virtue of the fact that they're allocated as part of cifs_sb_info by kzalloc, the ra_pages on cifs BDIs get set to 0, which prevents any readahead. This forces the normal read codepaths to use readpage instead of readpages causing a four-fold increase in the number of read calls with the default rsize. Fix it by setting ra_pages in the BDI to the same value as that in the default_backing_dev_info. Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31662 Cc: stable@kernel.org Reported-and-Tested-by:

Currently, we skip doing the is_path_accessible check in cifs_mount if there is no prefixpath. I have a report of at least one server however that allows a TREE_CONNECT to a share that has a DFS referral at its root. The reporter in this case was using a UNC that had no prefixpath, so the is_path_accessible check was not triggered and the box later hit a BUG() because we were chasing a DFS referral on the root dentry for the mount. This patch fixes this by removing the check for a zero-length prefixpath. That should make the is_path_accessible check be done in this situation and should allow the client to chase the DFS referral at mount time instead. Cc: stable@kernel.org Reported-and-Tested-by:

This flag currently only affects whether we allow "zero-copy" writes with signing enabled. Typically we map pages in the pagecache directly into the write request. If signing is enabled however and the contents of the page change after the signature is calculated but before the write is sent then the signature will be wrong. Servers typically respond to this by closing down the socket. Still, this can provide a performance benefit so the "Experimental" flag was overloaded to allow this. That's really not a good place for this option however since it's not clear what that flag does. Move that flag instead to a new module parameter that better describes its purpose. That's also better since it can be set at module insertion time by configuring modprobe.d. Reviewed-by:
