timekeeping: Increment clock_was_set_seq in timekeeping_init()

2015-10-16T13:50:22Z

timekeeping_init() can set the wall time offset, so we need to increment the clock_was_set_seq counter. That way hrtimers will pick up the early offset immediately. Otherwise on a machine which does not set wall time later in the boot process the hrtimer offset is stale at 0 and wall time timers are going to expire with a delay of 45 years.

genirq/msi: Do not use pci_msi_[un]mask_irq as default methods

2015-10-16T10:40:43Z

When we create a generic MSI domain, that MSI_FLAG_USE_DEF_CHIP_OPS is set, and that any of .mask or .unmask are NULL in the irq_chip structure, we set them to pci_msi_[un]mask_irq. This is a bad idea for at least two reasons: - PCI_MSI might not be selected, kernel fails to build (yes, this is legitimate, at least on arm64!) - This may not be a PCI/MSI domain at all (platform MSI, for example) Either way, this looks wrong. Move the overriding of mask/unmask to the PCI counterpart, and panic is any of these two methods is not set in the core code (they really should be present).

Pull workqueue fixlet from Tejun Heo: "Single patch to make delayed work always be queued on the local CPU" This is not actually something we should guarantee, but it's something we by accident have historically done, and at least one call site has grown to depend on it. I'm going to fix that known broken callsite, but in the meantime this makes the accidental behavior be explicit, just in case there are other cases that might depend on it. * 'for-4.3-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu

genirq: Fix handle_bad_irq kerneldoc comment

2015-10-09T15:17:30Z

A recent cleanup removed the 'irq' parameter from many functions, but left the documentation for this in place for at least one function. This removes it.

genirq: Export handle_bad_irq

2015-10-09T15:17:30Z

A cleanup of the omap gpio driver introduced a use of the handle_bad_irq() function in a device driver that can be a loadable module. This broke the ARM allmodconfig build: ERROR: "handle_bad_irq" [drivers/gpio/gpio-omap.ko] undefined! This patch exports the handle_bad_irq symbol in order to allow the use in modules.

sched/core: Fix TASK_DEAD race in finish_task_switch()

2015-10-06T15:05:17Z

So the problem this patch is trying to address is as follows: CPU0 CPU1 context_switch(A, B) ttwu(A) LOCK A->pi_lock A->on_cpu == 0 finish_task_switch(A) prev_state = A->state <-. WMB | A->on_cpu = 0; | UNLOCK rq0->lock | | context_switch(C, A) `-- A->state = TASK_DEAD prev_state == TASK_DEAD put_task_struct(A) context_switch(A, C) finish_task_switch(A) A->state == TASK_DEAD put_task_struct(A) The argument being that the WMB will allow the load of A->state on CPU0 to cross over and observe CPU1's store of A->state, which will then result in a double-drop and use-after-free. Now the comment states (and this was true once upon a long time ago) that we need to observe A->state while holding rq->lock because that will order us against the wakeup; however the wakeup will not in fact acquire (that) rq->lock; it takes A->pi_lock these days. We can obviously fix this by upgrading the WMB to an MB, but that is expensive, so we'd rather avoid that. The alternative this patch takes is: smp_store_release(&A->on_cpu, 0), which avoids the MB on some archs, but not important ones like ARM.
