We failed to check to see if actually allocated structures to contain the iBFT structure and went ahead to dereference it. This patch fixes the OOPS.

Commit 8f92054e ("CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner comment") fixed the lockdep checks on __task_cred(). This has shown up a place in the signalling code where a lock should be held - namely that check_kill_permission() requires its callers to hold the RCU lock. Fix group_send_sig_info() to get the RCU read lock around its call to check_kill_permission(). Without this patch, the following warning can occur: =================================================== [ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ] --------------------------------------------------- kernel/signal.c:660 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection! ...

bd_prepare_to_claim() incorrectly allowed multiple attempts for exclusive open to progress in parallel if the attempting holders are identical. This triggered BUG_ON() as reported in the following bug. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16393 __bd_abort_claiming() is used to finish claiming blocks and doesn't work if multiple openers are inside a claiming block. Allowing multiple parallel open attempts to continue doesn't gain anything as those are serialized down in the call chain anyway. Fix it by always allowing only single open attempt in a claiming block. This problem can easily be reproduced by adding a delay after bd_prepare_to_claim() and attempting to mount two partitions of a disk. stable: only applicable to v2.6.35 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Markus Trippelsdorf <markus@trippelsdorf.de> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The firmware handles '\t' internally, so stop trying to emulate it (which, incidentally, had a bug in it.) Fixes a really weird hang at bootup in rcu_bootup_announce, which, as far as I can tell, is the first printk in the core kernel to use a tab as the first character.

and fix the broken case if a core's frequency depends on others. trace_power_frequency was only implemented in a rather ungeneric way in acpi-cpufreq driver's target() function only. -> Move the call to trace_power_frequency to cpufreq.c:cpufreq_notify_transition() where CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier is triggered. This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq drivers trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly when the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores' frequency depend on each other. -> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu which gets switched automatically fixes this. Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my initial quick shot version which are integrated in this patch: - Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names) - Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id - Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> CC: davej@redhat.com CC: arjan@infradead.org CC: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org CC: robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de Tested-by: robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>

I spent an hour on hunting down the BIOS upgrade, only to find that it didn't improve anything. It was a day later that I realized that it might be a BIOS option; and the option was literally the _last_ option in the whole BIOS setup. :) This message would have saved the day. > But do not revert the FW_BUG part!

The PCC cpufreq driver unmaps the mailbox address range if any CPUs fail to initialise, but doesn't do anything to remove the registered CPUs from the cpufreq core resulting in failures further down the line. We're better off simply returning a failure - the cpufreq core will unregister us cleanly if we end up with no successfully registered CPUs. Tidy up the failure path and also add a sanity check to ensure that the firmware gives us a realistic frequency - the core deals badly with that being set to 0.
