In virtio_ccw_read_vq_conf() the return value of ccw_io_helper() was not checked. If the configuration could not be read properly, we'd wrongly assume a queue size of 0. Let's propagate any I/O error to virtio_ccw_setup_vq() so it may properly fail.

Balloon device is frequently used as a mean of cooperative memory control in between guest and host to manage memory overcommitment. This is the typical case for any hosting workload when KVM guest is provided for end-user. Though there is a problem in this setup. The end-user and hosting provider have signed SLA agreement in which some amount of memory is guaranted for the guest. The good thing is that this memory will be given to the guest when the guest will really need it (f.e. with OOM in guest and with VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM configuration flag set). The bad thing is that end-user does not know this. Balloon by default reduce the amount of memory exposed to the end-user each time when the page is stolen from guest or returned back by using adjust_managed_page_count and thus /proc/meminfo shows reduced amount of memory. Fortunately the solution is simple, we should just avoid to call adjust_managed_page_count with VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM set. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> CC: Michael S.

VIRTIO_BLK_F_CONFIG_WCE is important in order to achieve good performance (up to 2x, though more realistically +30-40%) in latency-bound workloads. However, it was removed by mistake together with VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH. It will be restored in the next revision of the virtio 1.0 standard, so do the same in Linux.

Pull nvdimm fixlet from Dan Williams: "This is a libnvdimm ABI fixup. I pushed back on this change quite hard given the late date, that it appears to be purely cosmetic, sysfs is not necessarily meant to be a user friendly UI, and the kernel interprets the reversed polarity of the ACPI_NFIT_MEM_ARMED flag correctly. When this flag is set, the energy source of an NVDIMM is not armed and any new writes to the DIMM may not be preserved. However, Bob Moore warned me that it is important to get these things named correctly wherever they appear otherwise we run the risk of a less than cautious firmware engineer implementing the polarity the wrong way. Once a mistake like that escapes into production platforms the flag becomes useless and we need to move to a new bit position. Bob has agreed to take a change through ACPICA to rename ACPI_NFIT_MEM_ARMED to ACPI_NFIT_MEM_NOT_ARMED, and the patch below from Toshi brings the sysfs representation of these flags in line with their respective polarities. Please pull for 4.2 as this is the first kernel to expose the ACPI NFIT sysfs representation, and this is likely a kernel that firmware developers will be using for checking out their NVDIMM enabling" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: nfit: Clarify memory device state flags strings

Commit f8d96052 ("sctp: Enforce retransmission limit during shutdown") fixed a problem with excessive retransmissions in the SHUTDOWN_PENDING by not resetting the association overall_error_count. This allowed the association to better enforce assoc.max_retrans limit. However, the same issue still exists when the association is in SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED state. In this state, HB-ACKs will continue to reset the overall_error_count for the association would extend the lifetime of association unnecessarily. This patch solves this by resetting the overall_error_count whenever the current state is small then SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_PENDING. As a small side-effect, we end up also handling SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT and SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_SENT states, but they are not really impacted because we disable Heartbeats in those states.

ACPI 6.0 NFIT Memory Device State Flags in Table 5-129 defines NVDIMM status as follows. These bits indicate multiple info, such as failures, pending event, and capability. Bit [0] set to 1 to indicate that the previous SAVE to the Memory Device failed. Bit [1] set to 1 to indicate that the last RESTORE from the Memory Device failed. Bit [2] set to 1 to indicate that platform flush of data to Memory Device failed. As a result, the restored data content may be inconsistent even if SAVE and RESTORE do not indicate failure. Bit [3] set to 1 to indicate that the Memory Device is observed to be not armed prior to OSPM hand off. A Memory Device is considered armed if it is able to accept persistent writes. Bit [4] set to 1 to indicate that the Memory Device observed SMART and health events prior to OSPM handoff. /sys/bus/nd/devices/nmemX/nfit/flags shows this flags info. The output strings associated with the bits are "save", "restore", "smart", etc., which can be confusing as they may be interpreted as positive status, i.e. save succeeded. Change also the dev_info() message in acpi_nfit_register_dimms() to be consistent with the sysfs flags strings.

When injecting a fault into a misbehaving 32bit guest, it seems rather idiotic to also inject a 64bit fault that is only going to corrupt the guest state. This leads to a situation where we perform an illegal exception return at EL2 causing the host to crash instead of killing the guest. Just fix the stupid bug that has been there from day 1.

Since commit 1851617c ("PCI/MSI: Disable MSI at enumeration even if kernel doesn't support MSI"), the setup of dev->msi_cap/msix_cap and the disable of MSI/MSI-X interrupts isn't being done at PCI probe time, as the logic responsible for this was moved in the aforementioned commit from pci_device_add() to pci_setup_device(). The latter function is not reachable on PowerPC pseries platform during Open Firmware PCI probing time. This exhibits as drivers not being able to enable MSI, eg: bnx2x 0000:01:00.0: no msix capability found This patch calls pci_msi_setup_pci_dev() explicitly to disable MSI/MSI-X during PCI probe time on pSeries platform.

Commit 1851617c ("PCI/MSI: Disable MSI at enumeration even if kernel doesn't support MSI") changed the location of the code that initialises dev->msi_cap/msix_cap and then disables MSI/MSI-X interrupts at PCI probe time in devices that have this flag set. It moved the code from pci_msi_init_pci_dev() to a new function named pci_msi_setup_pci_dev(), called by pci_setup_device(). The pseries PCI probing code does not call pci_setup_device(), so since the aforementioned commit the function pci_msi_setup_pci_dev() is not called and MSI/MSI-X interrupts are left enabled. Additionally because dev->msi_cap/msix_cap are not initialised no driver can ever enable MSI/MSI-X. To fix this, the pseries PCI probe should manually call pci_msi_setup_pci_dev(), so this patch makes it non-static.

Rather than re-initialising the entire completion on every mdio access, use reinit_completion() which only resets the completion count. This avoids possible reinitialisation of the contained spinlock and waitqueue while they may be in use (eg, mid-completion.) Such an event could occur if there's a long delay in interrupt handling causing the mdio accessor to time out, then a second access comes in while the interrupt handler on a different CPU has called complete(). Another scenario where this has been observed is while locking has been missing at the phy layer, allowing concurrent attempts to access the MDIO bus.

The phy layer is missing locking for the above two functions - it has been observed that two threads (userspace and the phy worker thread) can race, entering the bus ->write or ->read functions simultaneously. This causes the FEC driver to initialise a completion while another thread is waiting on it or while the interrupt is calling complete() on it, which causes spinlock unlock-without-lock, spinlock lockups, and completion timeouts.

Before 56ef9c90[1] it used to ignore all errors from igmp_join(). That commit enhanced that and made it error out whatever error happened with igmp_join(), but that's not good because when using multicast groups vxlan will try to join it multiple times if the socket is reused and then the 2nd and further attempts will fail with EADDRINUSE. As we don't track to which groups the socket is already subscribed, it's okay to just ignore that error.

Currently the renesas ethernet driver directory is compiled if SH_ETH is configured rather than NET_VENDOR_RENESAS. Although incorrect that was quite harmless as until recently as SH_ETH configured the only driver in the renesas directory. However, as of c156633f ("Renesas Ethernet AVB driver proper") the renesas directory includes another driver, configured by RAVB, and it makes little sense for it to have a hidden dependency on SH_ETH.
