commit 1a82e9e1 upstream. Introduce separate queues for operations that do not modify the semaphore values. Advantages: - Simpler logic in check_restart(). - Faster update_queue(): Right now, all wait-for-zero operations are always tested, even if the semaphore value is not 0. - wait-for-zero gets again priority, as in linux <=3.0.9 Signed-off-by: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr.bueso@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit f5c936c0 upstream. As now each semaphore has its own spinlock and parallel operations are possible, give each semaphore its own cacheline. On a i3 laptop, this gives up to 28% better performance: #semscale 10 | grep "interleave 2" - before: Cpus 1, interleave 2 delay 0: 36109234 in 10 secs Cpus 2, interleave 2 delay 0: 55276317 in 10 secs Cpus 3, interleave 2 delay 0: 62411025 in 10 secs Cpus 4, interleave 2 delay 0: 81963928 in 10 secs -after: Cpus 1, interleave 2 delay 0: 35527306 in 10 secs Cpus 2, interleave 2 delay 0: 70922909 in 10 secs <<< + 28% Cpus 3, interleave 2 delay 0: 80518538 in 10 secs Cpus 4, interleave 2 delay 0: 89115148 in 10 secs <<< + 8.7% i3, with 2 cores and with hyperthreading enabled. Interleave 2 in order use first the full cores. HT partially hides the delay from cacheline trashing, thus the improvement is "only" 8.7% if 4 threads are running.

commit 196aa013 upstream. Enforce that ipc_rcu_alloc returns a cacheline aligned pointer on SMP. Rationale: The SysV sem code tries to move the main spinlock into a seperate cacheline (____cacheline_aligned_in_smp). This works only if ipc_rcu_alloc returns cacheline aligned pointers. vmalloc and kmalloc return cacheline algined pointers, the implementation of ipc_rcu_alloc breaks that.

commit 2cafed30 upstream. Similar to semctl, when calling msgctl, the *_INFO and *_STAT commands can be performed without acquiring the ipc object. Add a msgctl_nolock() function and move the logic of *_INFO and *_STAT out of msgctl().

commit 7b4cc5d8 upstream. This function currently acquires both the rw_mutex and the rcu lock on successful lookups, leaving the callers to explicitly unlock them, creating another two level locking situation. Make the callers (including those that still use ipcctl_pre_down()) explicitly lock and unlock the rwsem and rcu lock.

commit dbfcd91f upstream. This patchset continues the work that began in the sysv ipc semaphore scaling series, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/20/546 Just like semaphores used to be, sysv shared memory and msg queues also abuse the ipc lock, unnecessarily holding it for operations such as permission and security checks. This patchset mostly deals with mqueues, and while shared mem can be done in a very similar way, I want to get these patches out in the open first. It also does some pending cleanups, mostly focused on the two level locking we have in ipc code, taking care of ipc_addid() and ipcctl_pre_down_nolock() - yes there are still functions that need to be updated as well. This patch: Make all callers explicitly take and release the RCU read lock. This addresses the two level locking seen in newary(), newseg() and newqueue(). For the last two, explicitly unlock the ipc object and the rcu lock, instead of calling the custom shm_unlock and msg_unlock functions. The next patch will deal with the open coded locking for ->perm.lock Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr.bueso@hp.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 5b242828 upstream. ARCompact TRAP_S insn used for breakpoints, commits before exception is taken (updating architectural PC). So ptregs->ret contains next-PC and not the breakpoint PC itself. This is different from other restartable exceptions such as TLB Miss where ptregs->ret has exact faulting PC. gdb needs to know exact-PC hence ARC ptrace GETREGSET provides for @stop_pc which returns ptregs->ret vs. EFA depending on the situation. However, writing stop_pc (SETREGSET request), which updates ptregs->ret doesn't makes sense stop_pc doesn't always correspond to that reg as described above. This was not an issue so far since user_regs->ret / user_regs->stop_pc had same value and both writing to ptregs->ret was OK, needless, but NOT broken, hence not observed. With gdb "jump", they diverge, and user_regs->ret updating ptregs is overwritten immediately with stop_pc, which this patch fixes.

commit 10469350 upstream. Previously, when a signal was registered with SA_SIGINFO, parameters 2 and 3 of the signal handler were written to registers r1 and r2 before the register set was saved. This led to corruption of these two registers after returning from the signal handler (the wrong values were restored). With this patch, registers are now saved before any parameters are passed, thus maintaining the processor state from before signal entry.

commit 6c00350b upstream. Some ARC SMP systems lack native atomic R-M-W (LLOCK/SCOND) insns and can only use atomic EX insn (reg with mem) to build higher level R-M-W primitives. This includes a SystemC based SMP simulation model. So rwlocks need to use a protecting spinlock for atomic cmp-n-exchange operation to update reader(s)/writer count. The spinlock operation itself looks as follows: mov reg, 1 ; 1=locked, 0=unlocked retry: EX reg, [lock] ; load existing, store 1, atomically BREQ reg, 1, rety ; if already locked, retry In single-threaded simulation, SystemC alternates between the 2 cores with "N" insn each based scheduling. Additionally for insn with global side effect, such as EX writing to shared mem, a core switch is enforced too. Given that, 2 cores doing a repeated EX on same location, Linux often got into a livelock e.g. when both cores were fiddling with tasklist lock (gdbserver / hackbench) for read/write respectively as the sequence diagram below shows: core1 core2 -------- -------- 1. spin lock [EX r=0, w=1] - LOCKED 2. rwlock(Read) - LOCKED 3. spin unlock [ST 0] - UNLOCKED spin lock [EX r=0,w=1] - LOCKED -- resched core 1---- 5. spin lock [EX r=1] - ALREADY-LOCKED -- resched core 2---- 6. rwlock(Write) - READER-LOCKED 7. spin unlock [ST 0] 8. rwlock failed, retry again 9. spin lock [EX r=0, w=1] -- resched core 1---- 10 spinlock locked in #9, retry #5 11. spin lock [EX gets 1] -- resched core 2---- ... ... The fix was to unlock using the EX insn too (step 7), to trigger another SystemC scheduling pass which would let core1 proceed, eliding the livelock.

commit 7efd0da2 upstream. Cast usecs to u64, to ensure that the (usecs * 4295 * HZ) multiplication is 64 bit. Initially, the (usecs * 4295 * HZ) part was done as a 32 bit multiplication, with the result casted to 64 bit. This led to some bits falling off, causing a "DMA initialization error" in the stmmac Ethernet driver, due to a premature timeout.

commit c3567f8a upstream. Commit 05b016ec "ARC: Setup Vector Table Base in early boot" moved the Interrupt vector Table setup out of arc_init_IRQ() which is called for all CPUs, to entry point of boot cpu only, breaking booting of others. Fix by adding the same to entry point of non-boot CPUs too. read_arc_build_cfg_regs() printing IVT Base Register didn't help the casue since it prints a synthetic value if zero which is totally bogus, so fix that to print the exact Register. [vgupta: Remove the now stale comment from header of arc_init_IRQ and also added the commentary for halt-on-reset] Cc: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com> Signed-off-by: Noam Camus <noamc@ezchip.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 05b016ec upstream. Otherwise early boot exceptions such as instructions errors due to configuration mismatch between kernel and hardware go off to la-la land, as opposed to hitting the handler and panic()'ing properly.

commit 59b33f14 upstream. Running an "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger" crashes the parisc kernel. The problem is, that in print_worker_info() we try to read the workqueue info via the probe_kernel_read() functions which use pagefault_disable() to avoid crashes like this: probe_kernel_read(&pwq, &worker->current_pwq, sizeof(pwq)); probe_kernel_read(&wq, &pwq->wq, sizeof(wq)); probe_kernel_read(name, wq->name, sizeof(name) - 1); The problem here is, that the first probe_kernel_read(&pwq) might return zero in pwq and as such the following probe_kernel_reads() try to access contents of the page zero which is read protected and generate a kernel segfault. With this patch we fix the interruption handler to call parisc_terminate() directly only if pagefault_disable() was not called (in which case preempt_count()==0). Otherwise we hand over to the pagefault handler which will try to look up the faulting address in the fixup tables.

commit cfc86025 upstream. This fixes a typo in the code that saves the guest DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) into the kvm_vcpu_arch struct on guest exit. The effect of the typo was that the DSCR value was saved in the wrong place, so changes to the DSCR by the guest didn't persist across guest exit and entry, and some host kernel memory got corrupted.

commit 6e4ea8e3 upstream. If we take the 2nd retry path in ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea, we potentionally return from the function without having freed these allocations. If we don't do the return, we over-write the previous allocation pointers, so we leak either way. Spotted with Coverity. [ Fixed by tytso to set is and bs to NULL after freeing these pointers, in case in the retry loop we later end up triggering an error causing a jump to cleanup, at which point we could have a double free bug. -- Ted ] Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@fedoraproject.org> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Reviewed-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 4871c158 upstream. btrfs_rename was using the root of the old dir instead of the root of the new dir when checking for a hash collision, so if you tried to move a file into a subvol it would freak out because it would see the file you are trying to move in its current root. This fixes the bug where this would fail btrfs subvol create test1 btrfs subvol create test2 mv test1 test2.

commit 25f2bd7f upstream. The crash reported and investigated in commit 5f4513 turned out to be caused by a change to the read interface on newer (2012) SMCs. Tests by Chris show that simply reading the data valid line is enough for the problem to go away. Additional tests show that the newer SMCs no longer wait for the number of requested bytes, but start sending data right away. Apparently the number of bytes to read is no longer specified as before, but instead found out by reading until end of data. Failure to read until end of data confuses the state machine, which eventually causes the crash. As a remedy, assuming bit0 is the read valid line, make sure there is nothing more to read before leaving the read function. Tested to resolve the original problem, and runtested on MBA3,1, MBP4,1, MBP8,2, MBP10,1, MBP10,2. The patch seems to have no effect on machines before 2012.

commit 4cdbf7d3 upstream. Initially commit cb527ede "i2c-omap: Double clear of ARDY status in IRQ handler" added a workaround for undocumented errata ProDB0017052. But then commit 1d7afc95 "i2c: omap: ack IRQ in parts" refactored code and missed one of ARDY clearings. So current code violates errata. It causes often i2c bus timeouts on my Pandaboard. This patch adds a second clearing in place.

commit 9d05746e upstream. Olga reported that file descriptors opened with O_PATH do not work with fstatfs(), found during further development of ksh93's thread support. There is no reason to not allow O_PATH file descriptors here (fstatfs is very much a path operation), so use "fdget_raw()". See commit 55815f70 ("vfs: make O_PATH file descriptors usable for 'fstat()'") for a very similar issue reported for fstat() by the same team.

commit 88cfcf86 upstream. The external mic showed up with a precense detect of "always present", essentially disabling the internal mic. Therefore turn off presence detection for this pin. Note: The external mic seems not yet working, but an internal mic is certainly better than no mic at all.
