commit ea17e741 upstream. The symbol jiffies is created in the linker script as an alias to jiffies_64. Unfortunately this is done outside any section, and apparently GNU ld 2.21 doesn't carry the section with it, so we end up with an absolute symbol and therefore a broken kernel. Add jiffies and jiffies_64 to the whitelist. The most disturbing bit with this discovery is that it shows that we have had multiple linker bugs in this area crossing multiple generations, and have been silently building bad kernels for some time.

commit fd952815 upstream. As noted in checkin: a3e854d9 x86, relocs: Workaround for binutils 2.22.52.0.1 section bug ld version 2.22.52.0.[12] can incorrectly promote relative symbols to absolute, if the output section they appear in is otherwise empty. Since checkin: 6520fe55 x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs tool we actually check for this and error out rather than silently creating a kernel which will malfunction if relocated. Ingo found a configuration in which __start_builtin_fw triggered the warning. Go through the linker script sources and look for more symbols that could plausibly get bogusly promoted to absolute, and add them to the whitelist. In general, if the following error triggers: Invalid absolute R_386_32 relocation: <symbol> ... then we should verify that <symbol> is really meant to be relocated, and add it and any related symbols manually to the S_REL regexp. Please note that 6520fe55 does not introduce the error, only the check for the error -- without 6520fe55 this version of ld will simply produce a corrupt kernel if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set on x86-32.

commit 24ab82bd upstream. When the relocs tool throws an error, let the error message say if it is an absolute or relative symbol.

commit a3e854d9 upstream. GNU ld 2.22.52.0.1 has a bug that it blindly changes symbols from section-relative to absolute if they are in a section of zero length. This turns the symbols __init_begin and __init_end into absolute symbols. Let the relocs program know that those should be treated as relative symbols.

commit 6520fe55 upstream. A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'. This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel initialization, these relocation entries can be used to relocate the code properly. In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'. 16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code. Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable data references. They are declared in the linker script of the real-mode code. The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree. [ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently produces bad kernels. ] Signed-off-by: H.

commit a7959c13 upstream. The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When _usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775. The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync() by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

Then, when dd reads the block device, it leads to block_read_full_page being called with buffers that are beyond end of disk, but are marked as mapped. Thus, it would end up submitting read I/O against them, resulting in the errors mentioned above. I fixed the problem by modifying init_page_buffers to only set the buffer mapped if it fell inside of i_size.

commit 68c2c39a upstream. PV on HVM guests map GSIs into event channels. At restore time the event channels are resumed by restore_pirqs. Device drivers might try to register the same GSI again through ACPI at restore time, but the GSI has already been mapped and bound by restore_pirqs.

commit 067aa481 upstream. Commit 178db7d3, "spi: Fix device unregistration when unregistering the bus master", changed spi device initialization of dev.parent pointer to be the master's device pointer instead of his parent. This introduced a bug in spi-fsl-spi, since its usage of spi device pointer was not updated accordingly. This was later fixed by commit 5039a869, "spi/mpc83xx: fix NULL pdata dereference bug", but it missed another spot on fsl_spi_cs_control function where we also need to update usage of spi device pointer.

commit a1e969e0 upstream. This originally started as a patch from Bernard as a way of simply setting the VS scheduler. After submitting the RFC patch, we decided to also modify the DS scheduler. To be most explicit, I've made the patch explicitly set all scheduler modes, and included the defines for other modes (in case someone feels frisky later). The rest of the story gets a bit weird. The first version of the patch showed an almost unbelievable performance improvement. Since rebasing my branch it appears the performance improvement has gone, unfortunately. But setting these bits seem to be the right thing to do given that the docs describe corruption that can occur with the default settings. In summary, I am seeing no more perf improvements (or regressions) in my limited testing, but we believe this should be set to prevent rendering corruption, therefore cc stable. v1: Clear bit 4 also (Ken + Eugeni) Do a full clear + set of the bits we want (Me).

commit 8a52f9f3 upstream. Currently, during i2c works alone, wait-event timeout is not occurred. However, as CPU load increases, timeout occurs frequently. So, I modified like this patch. Modifying like this patch, I've never seen the timeout event with high load test.

commit cc1d3e03 upstream. Commit ba02fa37 disabled the venc driver registration on OMAP4. Since the driver never gets probed/initialised your get a dereferenceed NULL pointer if you try to get info from /sys/kernel/debug/omapdss/venc Return info message about disabled venc if venc_dump_regs() gets called.

commit 1bb57e94 upstream. The dl2k driver's rio_ioctl call has a few issues: - No permissions checking - Implements SIOCGMIIREG and SIOCGMIIREG using the SIOCDEVPRIVATE numbers - Has a few ioctls that may have been used for debugging at one point but have no place in the kernel proper. This patch removes all but the MII ioctls, renumbers them to use the standard ones, and adds the proper permission check for SIOCSMIIREG. We can also get rid of the dl2k-specific struct mii_data in favor of the generic struct mii_ioctl_data. Since we have the phyid on hand, we can add the SIOCGMIIPHY ioctl too. Most of the MII code for the driver could probably be converted to use the generic MII library but I don't have a device to test the results.

commit 48a5730e upstream. This test is always true so it means we revalidate the length every time, which generates more network traffic. When it is SEEK_SET or SEEK_CUR, then we don't need to revalidate.

commit e1616300 upstream. dd slept infinitely when fsfeeze failed because of EIO. To fix this problem, if ->freeze_fs fails, freeze_super() wakes up the tasks waiting for the filesystem to become unfrozen. When s_frozen isn't SB_UNFROZEN in __generic_file_aio_write(), the function sleeps until FITHAW ioctl wakes up s_wait_unfrozen. However, if ->freeze_fs fails, s_frozen is set to SB_UNFROZEN and then freeze_super() returns an error number. In this case, FITHAW ioctl returns EINVAL because s_frozen is already SB_UNFROZEN. There is no way to wake up s_wait_unfrozen, so __generic_file_aio_write() sleeps infinitely.

commit 45bcf018 upstream. IRQF_SHARED is required for older controllers that don't support MSI(X) and which may end up sharing an interrupt. All the controllers hpsa normally supports have MSI(X) capability, but older controllers may be encountered via the hpsa_allow_any=1 module parameter. Also remove deprecated IRQF_DISABLED.
