Pull driver Core fixes from Greg Kroah-Hartman: "Here is a number of printk() fixes, specifically a few reported by the crazy blog program that ships in SUSE releases (that's "boot log" and not "web log", it predates the general "blog" terminology by many years), and the restoration of the continuation line functionality reported by Stephen and others. Yes, the changes seem a bit big this late in the cycle, but I've been beating on them for a while now, and Stephen has even optimized it a bit, so all looks good to me. The other change in here is a Documentation update for the stable kernel rules describing how some distro patches should be backported, to hopefully drive a bit more response from the distros to the stable kernel releases.

The acpi_pad driver can get stuck in destroy_power_saving_task() waiting for kthread_stop() to stop a power_saving thread. The problem is that the isolated_cpus_lock mutex is owned when destroy_power_saving_task() calls kthread_stop(), which waits for a power_saving thread to end, and the power_saving thread tries to acquire the isolated_cpus_lock when it calls round_robin_cpu(). This patch fixes the issue by making round_robin_cpu() use its own mutex. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42981 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Stuart Hayes <Stuart_Hayes@Dell.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

In reviewing Kay's fix up patch: "printk: Have printk() never buffer its data", I found two if statements that could be combined and optimized. Put together the two 'cont.len && cont.owner == current' if statements into a single one, and check if we need to call cont_add(). This also removes the unneeded double cont_flush() calls.

Continuation lines are buffered internally, intended to merge the chunked printk()s into a single record, and to isolate potentially racy continuation users from usual terminated line users. This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed information would never reach the consoles. Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic, and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount of needed record headers to store.

Commit f948501b ("Make hard_irq_disable() actually hard-disable interrupts") caused check_and_cede_processor to stop working. ->irq_happened will never be zero right after a hard_irq_disable so the compiler removes the call to cede_processor completely. The bug was introduced back in the lazy interrupt handling rework of 3.4 but was hidden until recently because hard_irq_disable did nothing. This issue will eventually appear in 3.4 stable since the hard_irq_disable fix is marked stable, so mark this one for stable too.

As I was adding code that affects all archs, I started testing function tracer against PPC64 and found that it currently locks up with 3.4 kernel. I figured it was due to tracing a function that shouldn't be, so I went through the following process to bisect to find the culprit: cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions > t num=`wc -l t` sed -ne "1,${num}p" t > t1 let num=num+1 sed -ne "${num},$p" t > t2 cat t1 > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter echo function /debug/tracing/current_tracer <failed? bisect t1, if not bisect t2> It finally came down to this function: restore_interrupts() I'm not sure why this locks up the system. It just seems to prevent scheduling from occurring. Interrupts seem to still work, as I can ping the box. But all user processes freeze. When restore_interrupts() is not traced, function tracing works fine.

In entry_64.S version of ret_from_except_lite, you'll notice that in the !preempt case, after we've checked MSR_PR we test for any TIF flag in _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide whether to go to do_work or not. However, in the preempt case, we do a convoluted trick to test SIGPENDING only if PR was set and always test NEED_RESCHED ... but we forget to test any other bit of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK !!! So that means that with preempt, we completely fail to test for things like single step, syscall tracing, etc... This should be fixed as the following path: - Test PR. If not set, go to resume_kernel, else continue. - If go resume_kernel, to do that original do_work. - If else, then always test for _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide to do that original user_work, else restore directly.

If the kernel is big enough (eg. allyesconfig), the linker may need to switch TOCs when calling from the BPF JIT code out to the external helpers (skb_copy_bits() & bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper()). In order to do that we need to leave space after the bl for the linker to insert a reload of our TOC pointer.

In commit 7a879824 we added a wrapper for the WDIOC_GETSTATUS ioctl call. The code results however in a different behaviour: it returns an error if the driver doesn't support the status operation. This is not according to the API that says that when we don't support the status operation, that we just should return a 0 value. Only when the device isn't there anymore, we should return an error.

The recent conversion of iTCO_wdt resulted in the driver no longer getting loaded automatically, since it no longer has a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() included. As the lpc_ich driver now creates a platform device, auto-loading can easily be done by having a respective module alias in place.
