get_active_stripe() is the last place we have lock contention. It has two paths. One is stripe isn't found and new stripe is allocated, the other is stripe is found. The first path basically calls __find_stripe and init_stripe. It accesses conf->generation, conf->previous_raid_disks, conf->raid_disks, conf->prev_chunk_sectors, conf->chunk_sectors, conf->max_degraded, conf->prev_algo, conf->algorithm, the stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list. Except stripe_hashtbl and inactive_list, other fields are changed very rarely. With this patch, we split inactive_list and add new hash locks. Each free stripe belongs to a specific inactive list. Which inactive list is determined by stripe's lock_hash. Note, even a stripe hasn't a sector assigned, it has a lock_hash assigned. Stripe's inactive list is protected by a hash lock, which is determined by it's lock_hash too. The lock_hash is derivied from current stripe_hashtbl hash, which guarantees any stripe_hashtbl list will be assigned to a specific lock_hash, so we can use new hash lock to protect stripe_hashtbl list too. The goal of the new hash locks introduced is we can only use the new locks in the first path of get_active_stripe(). Since we have several hash locks, lock contention is relieved significantly. The first path of get_active_stripe() accesses other fields, since they are changed rarely, changing them now need take conf->device_lock and all hash locks. For a slow path, this isn't a problem. If we need lock device_lock and hash lock, we always lock hash lock first. The tricky part is release_stripe and friends. We need take device_lock first. Neil's suggestion is we put inactive stripes to a temporary list and readd it to inactive_list after device_lock is released. In this way, we add stripes to temporary list with device_lock hold and remove stripes from the list with hash lock hold. So we don't allow concurrent access to the temporary list, which means we need allocate temporary list for all participants of release_stripe. One downside is free stripes are maintained in their inactive list, they can't across between the lists. By default, we have total 256 stripes and 8 lists, so each list will have 32 stripes. It's possible one list has free stripe but other list hasn't. The chance should be rare because stripes allocation are even distributed. And we can always allocate more stripes for cache, several mega bytes memory isn't a big deal. This completely removes the lock contention of the first path of get_active_stripe(). It slows down the second code path a little bit though because we now need takes two locks, but since the hash lock isn't contended, the overhead should be quite small (several atomic instructions). The second path of get_active_stripe() (basically sequential write or big request size randwrite) still has lock contentions.

The various ->run routines of md personalities assume that the 'queue' has been initialised by the blk_set_stacking_limits() call in md_alloc(). However when the level is changed (by level_store()) the ->run routine for the new level is called for an array which has already had the stacking limits modified. This can result in incorrect final settings. So call blk_set_stacking_limits() before ->run in level_store(). A specific consequence of this bug is that it causes discard_granularity to be set incorrectly when reshaping a RAID4 to a RAID0. This is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.3 in which blk_set_stacking_limits() was introduced.

There is a race between stop_two_cpus, and the global stop_cpus. It is possible for two CPUs to get their stopper functions queued "backwards" from one another, resulting in the stopper threads getting stuck, and the system hanging. This can happen because queuing up stoppers is not synchronized. This patch adds synchronization between stop_cpus (a rare operation), and stop_two_cpus.

Pull ARM SoC cleanups from Olof Johansson: "This branch contains code cleanups, moves and removals for 3.13. Qualcomm msm targets had a bunch of code removal for legacy non-DT platforms. Nomadik saw more device tree conversions and cleanup of old code. Tegra has some code refactoring, etc. One longish patch series from Sebastian Hasselbarth changes the init_time hooks and tries to use a generic implementation for most platforms, since they were all doing more or less the same things. Finally the "shark" platform is removed in this release. It's been abandoned for a while and nobody seems to care enough to keep it around. If someone comes along and wants to resurrect it, the removal can easily be reverted and code brought back.

Pull gfs2 updates from Steven Whitehouse: "The main feature of interest this time is quota updates. There are some clean ups and some patches to use the new generic lru list code. There is still plenty of scope for some further changes in due course - faster lookups of quota structures is very much on the todo list. Also, a start has been made towards the more tricky issue of using the generic lru code with glocks, but that will have to be completed in a subsequent merge window. The other, more minor feature, is that there have been a number of performance patches which relate to block allocation.

1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read the 2nd page first. 2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines. 3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size. In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn. Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we do this only to catch the obvious mistakes. Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations. Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't know how many bytes were actually read anyway. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

Commit aa59c53f "uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup xol_area" has a stupid typo, we need to setup t->utask->vaddr but the code wrongly uses current->utask. Even with this bug dup_xol_work() works "in practice", but only because get_unmapped_area(NULL, TASK_SIZE - PAGE_SIZE) likely returns the same address every time.

Merge tag 'ftrace-urgent-3.12-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull perf/ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt: "Dave Jones's trinity program was able to enable the function tracer from a normal user account via the perf syscall "perf_event_open()". When I was able to reproduce it with trinity, I was able to track down exactly how it happened. I discovered that the check for whether the function tracepoint should be activated or not was using the "perf_paranoid_kernel()" check which by default, lets the user continue. The user should not by default be able to enable function tracing. The fix is to use "perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" which will not let the user enable function tracing. This is a security fix as normal users should never be allowed to enable the function tracer" * tag 'ftrace-urgent-3.12-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: perf/ftrace: Fix paranoid level for enabling function tracer

STI text console (sticon) was broken on 64bit machines with more than 4GB RAM and this lead in some cases to a kernel crash. Since sticon uses the 32bit STI API it needs to keep pointers to memory below 4GB. But on a 64bit kernel some memory regions (e.g. the kernel stack) might be above 4GB which then may crash the kernel in the STI functions. Additionally sticon didn't selected the built-in framebuffer fonts by default. This is now fixed. On a side-note: Theoretically we could enhance the sticon driver to use the 64bit STI API. But - beside the fact that some machines don't provide a 64bit STI ROM - this would just add complexity. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.8+

Up to now PA-RISC could live with a trivial version of access_ok(). Our fault handlers can correctly handle fault cases. But testcases showed that we need a better access check else we won't always return correct errno failure codes to userspace. Problem showed up during 32bit userspace tests in which writev() used a 32bit memory area and length which would then wrap around on 64bit kernel. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Each CPU has it's own Control Register 16 (CR16) which is used as time source for the udelay() function.

We must avoid this since this may run as root.
