Commit 458df9fd ("printk: remove separate printk_sched buffers and use printk buf instead") hardcodes printk_deferred() to KERN_WARNING and inserts the string "[sched_delayed] " before the actual message. However it doesn't take into account the KERN_* prefix of the message, that now ends up in the middle of the output: [sched_delayed] ^a4CE: hpet increased min_delta_ns to 20115 nsec Fix this by just getting rid of the "[sched_delayed] " scnprintf(). The prefix is useless since 458df9fd anyway since from that moment printk_deferred() inserts the message into the kernel printk buffer immediately. So if the message eventually gets printed to console, it is printed in the correct order with other messages and there's no need for any special prefix. And if the kernel crashes before the message makes it to console, then prefix in the printk buffer doesn't make the situation any better.

Initialization procedure of dma coherent pool has been split into two parts, so memory pool can now be initialized without assigning to particular struct device. Then initialized region can be assigned to more than one struct device. To protect from concurent allocations from structure.

The current cma bitmap aligned mask computation is incorrect. It could cause an unexpected alignment when using cma_alloc() if the wanted align order is larger than cma->order_per_bit. Take kvm for example (PAGE_SHIFT = 12), kvm_cma->order_per_bit is set to 6. When kvm_alloc_rma() tries to alloc kvm_rma_pages, it will use 15 as the expected align value. After using the current implementation however, we get 0 as cma bitmap aligned mask other than 511. This patch fixes the cma bitmap aligned mask calculation.

Commit bf0dea23 ("mm/slab: use percpu allocator for cpu cache") changed the allocation method for cpu cache array from slab allocator to percpu allocator. Alignment should be provided for aligned memory in percpu allocator case, but, that commit mistakenly set this alignment to 0. So, percpu allocator returns unaligned memory address. It doesn't cause any problem on x86 which permits unaligned access, but, it causes the problem on sparc64 which needs strong guarantee of alignment. Following bug report is reported from David Miller. I'm getting tons of the following on sparc64: [603965.383447] Kernel unaligned access at TPC[546b58] free_block+0x98/0x1a0 [603965.396987] Kernel unaligned access at TPC[546b60] free_block+0xa0/0x1a0 ... [603970.554394] log_unaligned: 333 callbacks suppressed ... This patch provides a proper alignment parameter when allocating cpu cache to fix this unaligned memory access problem on sparc64.

caused a regression in xfs_inumbers, which in turn broke xfsdump, causing incomplete dumps. The loop in xfs_inumbers() needs to fill the user-supplied buffers, and iterates via xfs_btree_increment, reading new ags as needed. But the first time through the loop, if xfs_btree_increment() succeeds, we continue, which triggers the ++agno at the bottom of the loop, and we skip to soon to the next ag - without the proper setup under next_ag to read the next ag. Fix this by removing the agno increment from the loop conditional, and only increment agno if we have actually hit the code under the next_ag: target.

The following pairs of system calls dealing with extended attributes only differ in their behavior on whether the symbolic link is followed (when the named file is a symbolic link): - setxattr() and lsetxattr() - getxattr() and lgetxattr() - listxattr() and llistxattr() - removexattr() and lremovexattr() Despite this, the implementations all had duplicated code, so this commit redirects each of the above pairs of system calls to a corresponding function to which different lookup flags (LOOKUP_FOLLOW or 0) are passed. For me this reduced the stripped size of xattr.o from 8824 to 8248 bytes. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers3@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

As it is, path_lookupat() and path_mounpoint() might end up leaking struct file reference in some cases. Spotted-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers3@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Pull parisc fix from Helge Deller: "This patch intentionally breaks the ABI on PARISC Linux! It assigns new numbers to SIGSTKFLT, SIGXCPU, SIGXFSZ and SIGSYS so that those are below 32 and thus leaves us with 32 RT signals like other Linux architectures (SIGRTMIN now becomes 32 instead of 37). Even if it breaks the ABI, it doesn't seem to have any visible impact on existing userspace applications. I was able to mix new kernel and/or glibc without impacting normal bootup. So, even if it breaks the ABI, the benefits (e.g. being able to use systemd on PARISC Linux) outperforms the minimal (if any) impact it gives. The patch has been discussed on the parisc kernel mailing list and the coresponding glibc patch will be committed by the parisc glibc maintainer after this patch went into 3.18. Some more background information about this patch is in the commit message" [ Side note: the "no regressions" rule has always been about *users*, not ABI's. You can change ABI's all you like, until somebody actually notices. At that point it gets reverted regardless of how good your reasons and excuses. And admittedly, with parisc, the distinct lack of many users makes that fairly unlikely anyway :^p - Linus ] * 'parisc-3.18-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: Reduce SIGRTMIN from 37 to 32 to behave like other Linux architectures
