For raid1/4/5/6, resync (fixing inconsistencies between devices) is very similar to recovery (rebuilding a failed device onto a spare). The both walk through the device addresses in order. For raid10 it can be quite different. resync follows the 'array' address, and makes sure all copies are the same. Recover walks through 'device' addresses and recreates each missing block. The 'bitmap_cond_end_sync' function allows the write-intent-bitmap (When present) to be updated to reflect a partially completed resync. It makes assumptions which mean that it does not work correctly for raid10 recovery at all. In particularly, it can cause bitmap-directed recovery of a raid10 to not recovery some of the blocks that need to be recovered. So move the call to bitmap_cond_end_sync into the resync path, rather than being in the common "resync or recovery" path. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

When doing recovery on a raid10 with a write-intent bitmap, we only need to recovery chunks that are flagged in the bitmap. However if we choose to skip a chunk as it isn't flag, the code currently skips the whole raid10-chunk, thus it might not recovery some blocks that need recovering. This patch fixes it. In case that is confusing, it might help to understand that there is a 'raid10 chunk size' which guides how data is distributed across the devices, and a 'bitmap chunk size' which says how much data corresponds to a single bit in the bitmap. This bug only affects cases where the bitmap chunk size is smaller than the raid10 chunk size. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Intel 8257x Ethernet boards have a feature called Serial Over Lan. This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by kernel as a normal 8250 port. However, this emulation is not perfect, as also noticed on changeset 7500b1f6. Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is capable of work using IRQ's. This were done with a code similar this: serial_outp(up, UART_IER, UART_IER_THRI); lsr = serial_in(up, UART_LSR); iir = serial_in(up, UART_IIR); serial_outp(up, UART_IER, 0); if (lsr & UART_LSR_TEMT && iir & UART_IIR_NO_INT) up->bugs |= UART_BUG_TXEN; This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register. Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled. However, as TX IRQ keeps working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the serial console. This is the 6 version of this patch. Previous versions were trying to introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up, UART_IIR), but not taking forever. However, the needed delay couldn't be safely determined. At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but still hangs sometimes. Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still doesn't solve. A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time. However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk. So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

kzfree() is a wrapper for kfree() that additionally zeroes the underlying memory before releasing it to the slab allocator. Currently there is code which memset()s the memory region of an object before releasing it back to the slab allocator to make sure security-sensitive data are really zeroed out after use. These callsites can then just use kzfree() which saves some code, makes users greppable and allows for a stupid destructor that isn't necessarily aware of the actual object size.

Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD itself having been marked read-only as well in split_large_page(). The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard (and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE. The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and incorrect concept at the page table level - because the pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot 'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any mixture of protections. With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive (or permissive) protections will control it. Also update the comment. This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing. [ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not realized back then. ] Reported-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Reported-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

In the case where no EDID data is read from the device, adding the panel_fixed_mode pointer to the probed modes list causes data corruption. If the panel_fixed_mode pointer is added to the probed modes list at init time, a copy of the mode is added again at drm_get_modes() request time. Then, the panel_fixed_mode pointer is freed because it is seen as a duplicate mode. Unfortunately, this pointer is still stored and used in mode_fixup(). Because the panel_fixed_mode data is copied and returned at drm_get_modes() time, it is unnecessary to add this information at init time.
