For some reason they didn't get replaced so far by their paravirt equivalents, resulting in code to be run with interrupts disabled that doesn't expect so (causing, in the observed case, a BUG_ON() to trigger) when syscall auditing is enabled. David (Cc-ed) came up with an identical fix, so likely this can be taken to count as an ack from him.

When we have group with mixed events (hw/sw) we want to end up with group leader being in hw context. So if group leader is initialy sw event, we move all the events under hw context. The move is done for each event by removing it from its context and adding it back into proper one. As a part of the removal the event is automatically disabled, which is not what we want at this stage of creating groups. The fix is to initialize event state after removal from sw context.

For large VM page table updates, we can sometimes generate more packets than there is space on the ring. This happens more readily with the DMA ring since it is 64K (vs 1M for the CP). For now, switch back to the CP. For the next kernel, I have a patch to utilize IBs for VM PT updates which alleviates this problem.

If the requested number of DWs on the ring is larger than the size of the ring itself, return an error. In testing with large VM updates, we've seen crashes when we try and allocate more space on the ring than the total size of the ring without checking. This prevents the crash but for large VM updates or bo moves of very large buffers, we will need to break the transaction down into multiple batches. I have patches to use IBs for the next kernel.

i2c_hid_output_raw_report is used by hidraw to forward set_report requests. The current implementation of i2c_hid_set_report needs to take the report_id as an argument. The report_id is stored in the first byte of the buffer in argument of i2c_hid_output_raw_report. Not removing the report_id from the given buffer adds this byte 2 times in the command, leading to a non working command.

Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms. When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot. This is a result of commit b732d439 that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled. MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers don't need to be enabled. The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag. Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to adjust the sp by +8 before returning. So when not disabled, the original jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp. The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the "jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the "addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked because any access to the stack is done through the frame pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when the function returns. This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount" instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the "addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr". When disabled, there will be two nops. This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started. Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the routines are SMP safe. When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops. Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.

thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool which can lead to incorrect limits being set. The fix here simply deletes the thin_io_hints() hook which leaves the existing stacking infrastructure to set the limits correctly. When a thin-pool uses an MD device for the data device a thin device from the thin-pool must respect MD's constraints about disallowing a bio from spanning multiple chunks. Otherwise we can see problems. If the raid0 chunksize is 1152K and thin-pool chunksize is 256K I see the following md/raid0 error (with extra debug tracing added to thin_endio) when mkfs.xfs is executed against the thin device: md/raid0:md99: make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 1152k 6688 127 device-mapper: thin: bio sector=2080 err=-5 bi_size=130560 bi_rw=17 bi_vcnt=32 bi_idx=0 This extra DM debugging shows that the failing bio is spanning across the first and second logical 1152K chunk (sector 2080 + 255 takes the bio beyond the first chunk's boundary of sector 2304). So the bio splitting that DM is doing clearly isn't respecting the MD limits. max_hw_sectors_kb is 127 for both the thin-pool and thin device (queue_max_hw_sectors returns 255 so we'll excuse sysfs's lack of precision). So this explains why bi_size is 130560. But the thin device's max_hw_sectors_kb should be 4 (PAGE_SIZE) given that it doesn't have a .merge function (for bio_add_page to consult indirectly via dm_merge_bvec) yet the thin-pool does sit above an MD device that has a compulsory merge_bvec_fn. This scenario is exactly why DM must resort to sending single PAGE_SIZE bios to the underlying layer. Some additional context for this is available in the header for commit 8cbeb67a ("dm: avoid unsupported spanning of md stripe boundaries"). Long story short, the reason a thin device doesn't properly get configured to have a max_hw_sectors_kb of 4 (PAGE_SIZE) is that thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool device directly to the thin device's queue limits. Fix this by eliminating thin_io_hints. Doing so is safe because the block layer's queue limits stacking already enables the upper level thin device to inherit the thin-pool device's discard and minimum_io_size and optimal_io_size limits that get set in pool_io_hints. But avoiding the queue limits copy allows the thin and thin-pool limits to be different where it is important, namely max_hw_sectors_kb.

NFS4ERR_DELAY is a legal reply when we call DESTROY_SESSION. It usually means that the server is busy handling an unfinished RPC request. Just sleep for a second and then retry. We also need to be able to handle the NFS4ERR_BACK_CHAN_BUSY return value. If the NFS server has outstanding callbacks, we just want to similarly sleep & retry.

This fixes a livelock in the xprt->sending queue where we end up never making progress on lower priority tasks because sleep_on_priority() keeps adding new tasks with the same owner to the head of the queue, and priority bumps mean that we keep resetting the queue->owner to whatever task is at the head of the queue. Regression introduced by commit c05eecf6 (SUNRPC: Don't allow low priority tasks to pre-empt higher priority ones).

Ensure that any setattr and getattr requests for junctions and/or mountpoints are sent to the server. Ever since commit 0ec26fd0 (vfs: automount should ignore LOOKUP_FOLLOW), we have silently dropped any setattr requests to a server-side mountpoint. For referrals, we have silently dropped both getattr and setattr requests. This patch restores the original behaviour for setattr on mountpoints, and tries to do the same for referrals, provided that we have a filehandle...
