      ARM: imx: mach-imx6q: Fix the PHY ID mask for AR8031 · 4edd601c
      Fabio Estevam authored
      AR8031 and AR8035 have the same PHY ID mask of 0xffffffef.
      
      So fix it and make it match with the PHY ID mask definition
      at drivers/net/phy/at803x.c.

      ARM: dts: vf610: fix IRQ flag of global timer · 44d52421
      Stefan Agner authored
      The global timer IRQ (PPI[0], PPI 11 in device tree terms) is a
      rising edge interrupt. The ARM Cortex-A5 MPCore TRM in Chapter
      10.1.2. Interrupt types and sources says:
      "Interrupt is rising-edge sensitive."
      
      The bits seem to be read-only, hence this missconfiguration had
      no negative effect. However, with commit 992345a5
      ("irqchip/gic: WARN if setting the interrupt type for a PPI fails")
      warnings such as this get printed:
      GIC: PPI11 is secure or misconfigured
      
      With this change the new configuration matches the default
      configuration and no warning is printed anymore.

      ARM: imx: gpc: Fix the imx_gpc_genpd_init() error path · f9d1f7a7
      Fabio Estevam authored
      If of_genpd_add_provider_onecell() fails the following kernel crash is
      observed on a kernel built with multi_v7_defconfig:

      Instead of returning of_genpd_add_provider_onecell() directly,
      we should check its return value and in the case of error we
      should unwind the previously taken actions, which in these case are:
      - Call imx6q_pm_pu_power_off()
      - Set imx6q_pu_domain.reg back to NULL
      
      Setting imx6q_pu_domain.reg to NULL in the error case is important
      as it will prevent further operations in the pu_reg regulator.
      
      This kernel crash is not observed with imx_v6_v7_defconfig because
      it selects GPU and VPU drivers, which are consumers of the GPC block
      and thus change the refcount of the pu_reg regulator.

      ARM: imx: gpc: Initialize all power domains · eef0b282
      Fabio Estevam authored
      Since commit 0159ec67 ("PM / Domains: Verify the PM domain is present
      when adding a provider") the following regression is observed on imx6:
      
      imx-gpc: probe of 20dc000.gpc failed with error -22
      
      The gpc probe fails because of_genpd_add_provider_onecell() now checks
      if all the domains are initialized via pm_genpd_present() function
      and it fails because not all the power domains are initialized.
      
      In order to fix this error, initialize all the power domains from
      imx_gpc_domains[], not only the imx6q_pu_domain.base one.

      arm64: dts: rockchip: remove always-on and boot-on from vcc_sd · 0362fcc9
      Shawn Lin authored
      Please don't add these for vcc_sd, and mmc-core/driver will control
      it. Otherwise, it will waste energy even without sdmmc in slot.
      
      Moreover, it will causes a bug:
      If we insert/remove sd card, we could see
      [9.337271] mmc0: new ultra high speed SDR25 SDHC card at address 0007
      [9.345144] mmcblk0: mmc0:0007 SD32G 29.3 GiB
      
      This is okay for normal sd insert/remove test, but when I debug some
      issues for sdmmc, I did unbind/bind test. And there is a interesting
      phenomenon when we bind the driver again:
      [58.314069] mmc0: new high speed SDHC card at address 0007
      [58.320282] mmcblk0: mmc0:0007 SD32G 29.3 GiB
      
      So the sd card could just support high speed without power cycle
      since the vcc_sd is always on, which makes the sd card fail to
      reinit its internal ocr mask.

        CPU operation (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences,
        SMP ordering, thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
      
        At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example

         - significant improvements in reconnection (e.g. if server or network

           server which advertises Continuous Availability on the share.
      
         - a new mount option "idsfromsid" which improves POSIX compatibility
           in some cases (when winbind not configured e.g.) by better (and
           faster) fetching uid/gid from acl (when "cifsacl" mount option is
           enabled). NB: we are almost complete work on "cifsacl" (querying
           mode/uid/gid from ACL) for SMB3, but SMB3 support for cifsacl is
           not included in this set.
      
         - improved handling for SMB3 "credits" (even if server is buggy)

         - cifsacl enablement for SMB3
      
         - cleanup of RFC1001 length calculation (so we can handle encryption
           and multichannel and RDMA)
      
        And a couple of new bugs were reported recently (unrelated to above)
        so will probably have another merge request next week"

      fs/super.c: don't fool lockdep in freeze_super() and thaw_super() paths · f1a96220
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      sb_wait_write()->percpu_rwsem_release() fools lockdep to avoid the
      false-positives. Now that xfs was fixed by Dave's commit dbad7c99
      ("xfs: stop holding ILOCK over filldir callbacks") we can remove it and
      change freeze_super() and thaw_super() to run with s_writers.rw_sem locks
      held; we add two trivial helpers for that, lockdep_sb_freeze_release()
      and lockdep_sb_freeze_acquire().
      
      xfstests-dev/check `grep -il freeze tests/*/???` does not trigger any
      warning from lockdep.

      fs/super.c: fix race between freeze_super() and thaw_super() · 89f39af1
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      Change thaw_super() to check frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE rather than
      frozen == SB_UNFROZEN, otherwise it can race with freeze_super() which
      drops sb->s_umount after SB_FREEZE_WRITE to preserve the lock ordering.
      
      In this case thaw_super() will wrongly call s_op->unfreeze_fs() before
      it was actually frozen, and call sb_freeze_unlock() which leads to the
      unbalanced percpu_up_write(). Unfortunately lockdep can't detect this,
      so this triggers misc BUG_ON()'s in kernel/rcu/sync.c.

      overlayfs: Fix setting IOP_XATTR flag · 655042cc
      Vivek Goyal authored
      ovl_fill_super calls ovl_new_inode to create a root inode for the new
      superblock before initializing sb->s_xattr.  This wrongly causes
      IOP_XATTR to be cleared in i_opflags of the new inode, causing SELinux
      to log the following message:
      
        SELinux: (dev overlay, type overlay) has no xattr support
      
      Fix this by initializing sb->s_xattr and similar fields before calling
      ovl_new_inode.

      iov_iter: kernel-doc import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() · ffecee4f
      Vegard Nossum authored
      Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array
      (typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy
      from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the
      fast path (i.e. few iovec elements).
      
      The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used
      the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between
      the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are
      for each function.
