Currently write(2) to a file is not interruptible by any signal. Sometimes this is desirable, e.g. when you want to quickly kill a process hogging your disk. Also, with commit 499d05ec ("mm: Make task in balance_dirty_pages() killable"), it's necessary to abort the current write accordingly to avoid it quickly dirtying lots more pages at unthrottled rate. This patch makes write interruptible by SIGKILL. We do not allow write to be interruptible by any other signal because that has larger potential of screwing some badly written applications.

Commit fa27271b("genirq: Fixup poll handling") introduced a regression that broke irqfixup/irqpoll for some hardware configurations. Amidst reorganizing 'try_one_irq', that patch removed a test that checked for 'action->handler' returning IRQ_HANDLED, before acting on the interrupt. Restoring this test back returns the functionality lost since 2.6.39. In the current set of tests, after 'action' is set, it must precede '!action->next' to take effect. With this and my previous patch to irq/spurious.c, c75d720f, all IRQ regressions that I have encountered are fixed.

VT1708 has no support for unsolicited events per jack-plug, the driver implements the workq for polling the jack-detection. The mixer element "Jack Detect" was supposed to control this behavior on/off, but this doesn't work properly as is now. The workq is always started and the HP automute is always enabled. This patch fixes the jack-detect control behavior by triggering / stopping the work appropriately at the state change. Also the work checks the internal state to continue scheduling or not.

2d3cbf8b (cgroup_freezer: update_freezer_state() does incorrect state transitions) removed is_task_frozen_enough and replaced it with a simple frozen call. This, however, breaks freezing for a group with stopped tasks because those cannot be frozen and so the group remains in CGROUP_FREEZING state (update_if_frozen doesn't count stopped tasks) and never reaches CGROUP_FROZEN. Let's add is_task_frozen_enough back and use it at the original locations (update_if_frozen and try_to_freeze_cgroup). Semantically we consider stopped tasks as frozen enough so we should consider both cases when testing frozen tasks. Testcase: mkdir /dev/freezer mount -t cgroup -o freezer none /dev/freezer mkdir /dev/freezer/foo sleep 1h & pid=$! kill -STOP $pid echo $pid > /dev/freezer/foo/tasks echo FROZEN > /dev/freezer/foo/freezer.state while true do cat /dev/freezer/foo/freezer.state [ "`cat /dev/freezer/foo/freezer.state`" = "FROZEN" ] && break sleep 1 done echo OK Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Tomasz Buchert <tomasz.buchert@inria.fr> Cc: Paul Menage <paul@paulmenage.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

The driver for the Freescale P3060 QDS got added by commit 96cc017c ("[...] Add support for P3060QDS board"). Its Kconfig entry selects MPC8xxx_GPIO. But at the time that driver got added MPC8xxx_GPIO was already renamed to GPIO_MPC8XXX, by commit c68308dd ("gpio: move mpc8xxx/512x gpio driver to drivers/gpio"). So make this driver select GPIO_MPC8XXX. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Acked-by: Wolfram Sang <w.sang@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

P1023 external IRQ[4:6, 11] are not pin out, but the interrupts are utilized by the PCIe controllers. As they are not exposed as pins we need to set them as active-high (internal to the SoC these interrupts are pulled down). IRQs[0:3,7:10] are pulled up on the board so we have them set as active-low.

-
Michael S. Tsirkin authored
virtio pci device reset actually just does an I/O write, which in PCI is really posted, that is it can complete on CPU before the device has received it. Further, interrupts might have been pending on another CPU, so device callback might get invoked after reset. This conflicts with how drivers use reset, which is typically: reset unregister a callback running after reset completed can race with unregister, potentially leading to use after free bugs. Fix by flushing out the write, and flushing pending interrupts. This assumes that device is never reset from its vq/config callbacks, or in parallel with being added/removed, document this assumption. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
