commit 3751d3e8 upstream. There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all the way back to 2.6.36. The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates writing a breakpoint into a read-only page. The x86 kgdb code can solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly. The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function. The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break point removal routine will get called later on.

commit 23bbd8e3 upstream. The do_fork and sys_open tests have never worked properly on anything other than a UP configuration with the kgdb test suite. This is because the test suite did not fully implement the behavior of a real debugger. A real debugger tracks the state of what thread it asked to single step and can correctly continue other threads of execution or conditionally stop while waiting for the original thread single step request to return. Below is a simple method to cause a fatal kernel oops with the kgdb test suite on a 2 processor ARM system: while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& echo V1I1F100 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts Very soon after starting the test the kernel will start warning with messages like: kgdbts: BP mismatch c002487c expected c0024878 ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:317 check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4() [<c01f6520>] (check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4) [<c01f595c>] (validate_simple_test+0x3c/0xc4) [<c01f60d4>] (run_simple_test+0x1e8/0x274) The kernel will eventually recovers, but the test suite has completely failed to test anything useful. This patch implements behavior similar to a real debugger that does not rely on hardware single stepping by using only software planted breakpoints. In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the intent to single step just this thread. When the response to the single step request stops in a different thread that hit the original break point that thread will now get continued, while the debugger waits for the thread with the single step pending. Here is a high level description of the sequence of events. cont_instead_of_sstep = 0; 1) set breakpoint at do_fork 2) continue 3) Save the thread id where we stop to cont_thread_id 4) Remove breakpoint at do_fork 5) Reset the PC if needed depending on kernel exception type 6) soft single step 7) Check where we stopped if current thread != cont_thread_id { if (here for more than 2 times for the same thead) { ### must be a really busy system, start test again ### goto step 1 } goto step 5 } else { cont_instead_of_sstep = 0; } 8) clean up and run test again if needed 9) Clear out any threads that were waiting on a break point at the point in time the test is ended with get_cont_catch(). This happens sometimes because breakpoints are used in place of single stepping and some threads could have been in the debugger exception handling queue because breakpoints were hit concurrently on different CPUs. This also means we wait at least one second before unplumbing the debugger connection at the very end, so as respond to any debug threads waiting to be serviced. Signed-off-by:

A real debugger tracks the state of what thread it asked to single step and can correctly continue other threads of execution or conditionally stop while waiting for the original thread single step request to return. Below is a simple method to cause a fatal kernel oops with the kgdb test suite on a 4 processor x86 system: while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done& echo V1I1F1000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts Very soon after starting the test the kernel will oops with a message like: kgdbts: BP mismatch 3b7da66480 expected ffffffff8106a590 WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:303 check_and_rewind_pc+0xe0/0x100() Call Trace: [<ffffffff812994a0>] check_and_rewind_pc+0xe0/0x100 [<ffffffff81298945>] validate_simple_test+0x25/0xc0 [<ffffffff81298f77>] run_simple_test+0x107/0x2c0 [<ffffffff81298a18>] kgdbts_put_char+0x18/0x20 The warn will turn to a hard kernel crash shortly after that because the pc will not get properly rewound to the right value after hitting a breakpoint leading to a hard lockup. This change is broken up into 2 pieces because archs that have hw single stepping (2.6.26 and up) need different changes than archs that do not have hw single stepping (3.0 and up). This change implements the correct behavior for an arch that supports hw single stepping. A minor defect was fixed where sys_open should be do_sys_open for the sys_open break point test. This solves the problem of running a 64 bit with a 32 bit user space. The sys_open() never gets called when using the 32 bit file system for the kgdb testsuite because the 32 bit binaries invoke the compat_sys_open() call leading to the test never completing. In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the intent to single step just this thread. When the response to the single step request stops in a different thread that hit the original break point that thread will now get continued, while the debugger waits for the thread with the single step pending.

commit 456ca7ff upstream. On x86 the kgdb test suite will oops when the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and you run the tests after boot time. This is regression has existed since 2.6.26 by commit: b33cb815 (kgdbts: Use HW breakpoints with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA). The test suite can use hw breakpoints for all the tests, but it has to execute the hardware breakpoint specific tests first in order to determine that the hw breakpoints actually work. Specifically the very first test causes an oops: # echo V1I1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts kgdb: Registered I/O driver kgdbts. kgdbts:RUN plant and detach test Entering kdb (current=0xffff880017aa9320, pid 1078) on processor 0 due to Keyboard Entry [0]kdb> kgdbts: ERROR PUT: end of test buffer on 'plant_and_detach_test' line 1 expected OK got $E14#aa WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:730 run_simple_test+0x151/0x2c0() [...oops clipped...] This commit re-orders the running of the tests and puts the RODATA check into its own function so as to correctly avoid the kernel oops by detecting and using the hw breakpoints.

commit 98b54aa1 upstream. There is extra state information that needs to be exposed in the kgdb_bpt structure for tracking how a breakpoint was installed. The debug_core only uses the the probe_kernel_write() to install breakpoints, but this is not enough for all the archs. Some arch such as x86 need to use text_poke() in order to install a breakpoint into a read only page. Passing the kgdb_bpt structure to kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() and kgdb_arch_remove_breakpoint() allows other archs to set the type variable which indicates how the breakpoint was installed.

commit 2a15cd2f upstream. With runtime PM, if the ethernet cable is disconnected, the device is transitioned to D3 state to conserve energy. If the system is shutdown in this state, any register accesses in rtl_shutdown are dropped on the floor. As the device was programmed by .runtime_suspend() to wake on link changes, it is thus brought back up as soon as the link recovers. Resuming every suspended device through the driver core would slow things down and it is not clear how many devices really need it now. Original report and D0 transition patch by Sameer Nanda. Patch has been changed to comply with advices by Rafael J. Wysocki and the PM folks. Reported-by:

commit 62fb376e upstream. mplayer -vo fbdev tries to create a screen that is twice as tall as the allocated framebuffer for "doublebuffering". By default, and all in-tree users, only sufficient memory is allocated and mapped to satisfy the smallest framebuffer and the virtual size is no larger than the actual. For these users, we should therefore reject any userspace request to create a screen that requires a buffer larger than the framebuffer originally allocated.

commit 643c61e1 upstream. In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770207, slowdowns of driver rtl8192ce are reported. One fix (commit a9b89e25) has already been applied, and it helped, but the maximum RX speed would still drop to 1 Mbps. As in the previous fix, the initial gain was determined to be the problem; however, the problem arises from a setting of the gain when scans are started. Driver rtl8192de also has the same code structure - this one is fixed as well. Reported-and-Tested-by:

commit 12b5da34 upstream. When reading the trace file, the records of each of the per_cpu buffers are examined to find the next event to print out. At the point of looking at the event, the size of the event is recorded. But if the first event is chosen, the other events in the other CPU buffers will reset the event size that is stored in the iterator descriptor, causing the event size passed to the output functions to be incorrect. In most cases this is not a problem, but for the case of stack traces, it is. With the change to the stack tracing to record a dynamic number of back traces, the output depends on the size of the entry instead of the fixed 8 back traces. When the entry size is not correct, the back traces would not be fully printed. Note, reading from the per-cpu trace files were not affected. Reported-by:

commit f5cb92ac upstream. irq_move_masked_irq() checks the return code of chip->irq_set_affinity() only for 0, but IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY is also a valid return code, which is there to avoid a redundant copy of the cpumask. But in case of IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY we not only avoid the redundant copy, we also fail to adjust the thread affinity of an eventually threaded interrupt handler. Handle IRQ_SET_MASK_OK (==0) and IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY(==1) return values correctly by checking the valid return values seperately. Signed-off-by:

commit 3e80acd1 upstream. commit 64b3db22 (2.6.39), "Remove use of unreliable FADT revision field" causes regression for old P4 systems because now cst_control and other fields are not reset to 0. The effect is that acpi_processor_power_init will notice cst_control != 0 and a write to CST_CNT register is performed that should not happen. As result, the system oopses after the "No _CST, giving up" message, sometimes in acpi_ns_internalize_name, sometimes in acpi_ns_get_type, usually at random places. May be during migration to CPU 1 in acpi_processor_get_throttling. Every one of these settings help to avoid this problem: - acpi=off - processor.nocst=1 - maxcpus=1 The fix is to update acpi_gbl_FADT.header.length after the original value is used to check for old revisions. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42700 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=727865Signed-off-by:

commit 2815ab92 upstream. On Intel CPUs the processor typically uses the highest frequency set by any logical CPU. When the system overheats Linux first forces the frequency to the lowest available one to lower the temperature. However this was done only per logical CPU, which means all logical CPUs in a package would need to go through this before the frequency is actually lowered. Worse this delay actually prevents real throttling, because the real throttle code only proceeds when the lowest frequency is already reached. So when a throttle event happens force the lowest frequency for all CPUs in the package where it happened. The per CPU state is now kept per package, not per logical CPU. An alternative would be to do it per cpufreq unit, but since we want to bring down the temperature of the complete chip it's better to do it for all. In principle it may even make sense to do it for all CPUs, but I kept it on the package for now. With this change the frequency is actually lowered, which in terms also allows real throttling to proceed. I also removed an unnecessary per cpu variable initialization. v2: Fix package mapping Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 78fb72f7 ] Make CDC EEM recalculate the hard_mtu after adjusting the hard_header_len. Without this, usbnet adjusts the MTU down to 1494 bytes, and the host is unable to receive standard 1500-byte frames from the device. Tested with the Linux USB Ethernet gadget.

[ Upstream commit 81213b5e ] If both addresses equal, nothing needs to be done. If the device is down, then we simply copy the new address to dev->dev_addr. If the device is up, then we add another loopback device with the new address, and if that does not fail, we remove the loopback device with the old address. And only then, we update the dev->dev_addr. Signed-off-by:

commit c9651e70 upstream. Since 3.2.12 and 3.3, some systems are failing to boot with a BUG_ON. Some other systems using the pata_jmicron driver fail to boot because no disks are detected. Passing pcie_aspm=force on the kernel command line works around it. The cause: commit 4949be16 ("PCI: ignore pre-1.1 ASPM quirking when ASPM is disabled") changed the behaviour of pcie_aspm_sanity_check() to always return 0 if aspm is disabled, in order to avoid cases where we changed ASPM state on pre-PCIe 1.1 devices. This skipped the secondary function of pcie_aspm_sanity_check which was to avoid us enabling ASPM on devices that had non-PCIe children, causing trouble later on. Move the aspm_disabled check so we continue to honour that scenario.

commit 49d4bcad upstream. When DMA is enabled, sh-sci transfer begins with uart_start() sci_start_tx() if (cookie_tx < 0) schedule_work() Then, starts DMA when wq scheduled, -- (A) process_one_work() work_fn_rx() cookie_tx = desc->submit_tx() And finishes when DMA transfer ends, -- (B) sci_dma_tx_complete() async_tx_ack() cookie_tx = -EINVAL (possible another schedule_work()) This A to B sequence is not reentrant, since controlling variables (for example, cookie_tx above) are not queues nor lists. So, they must be invoked as A B A B..., otherwise results in kernel crash. To ensure the sequence, sci_start_tx() seems to test if cookie_tx < 0 (represents "not used") to call schedule_work(). But cookie_tx will not be set (to a cookie, also means "used") until in the middle of work queue scheduled function work_fn_tx(). This gap between the test and set allows the breakage of the sequence under the very frequently call of uart_start(). Another gap between async_tx_ack() and another schedule_work() results in the same issue, too. This patch introduces a new condition "cookie_tx == 0" just to mark it is "busy" and assign it within spin-locked region to fill the gaps. Signed-off-by:
