2010-02-11tpm_infineon: fix suspend/resume handler for pnp_driverMarcel Selhorst
When suspending, tpm_infineon calls the generic suspend function of the TPM framework. However, the TPM framework does not return and the system hangs upon suspend. When sending the necessary command "TPM_SaveState" directly within the driver, suspending and resuming works fine.

2010-02-07Fix race in tty_fasync() properlyLinus Torvalds
This reverts commit 703625118069 ("tty: fix race in tty_fasync") and commit b04da8bfdfbb ("fnctl: f_modown should call write_lock_irqsave/ restore") that tried to fix up some of the fallout but was incomplete. It turns out that we really cannot hold 'tty->ctrl_lock' over calling __f_setown, because not only did that cause problems with interrupt disables (which the second commit fixed), it also causes a potential ABBA deadlock due to lock ordering. Thanks to Tetsuo Handa for following up on the issue, and running lockdep to show the problem. It goes roughly like this: - f_getown gets filp->f_owner.lock for reading without interrupts disabled, so an interrupt that happens while that lock is held can cause a lockdep chain from f_owner.lock -> sighand->siglock. - at the same time, the tty->ctrl_lock -> f_owner.lock chain that commit 703625118069 introduced, together with the pre-existing sighand->siglock -> tty->ctrl_lock chain means that we have a lock dependency the other way too. So instead of extending tty->ctrl_lock over the whole __f_setown() call, we now just take a reference to the 'pid' structure while holding the lock, and then release it after having done the __f_setown. That still guarantees that 'struct pid' won't go away from under us, which is all we really ever needed.

2010-02-04x86/agp: Fix amd64-agp module initialization regressionFUJITA Tomonori
This fixes the regression introduced by commit 42590a75019a50012f25a962246498dead428433 ("x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init and agp_amd64_cleanup"). The commit 61684ceaad4f65d1a9832c722f7bd5e7fc714de9 fixed the above regression but it's not enough. When amd64-agp is built as a module, AGP isn't initialized, iommu is initialized, all the aperture is owned by the iommu.

2010-02-02devmem: fix kmem write bug on memory holesWu Fengguang
write_kmem() used to assume vwrite() always return the full buffer length. However now vwrite() could return 0 to indicate memory hole. This creates a bug that "buf" is not advanced accordingly.

No other driver does anything remotely like this that I know of except for the tty drivers, and I can't see any reason for random/urandom to do it. In fact, it's a (trivial, harmless) timing information leak. And obviously, it generates power- and flash-cycle wasting I/O, especially if combined with something like hwrngd. Also, it breaks ubifs's expectations. Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2010-01-31x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init regressionFUJITA Tomonori
This fixes the regression introduced by commit 42590a75019a50012f25a962246498dead428433 ("x86/agp: Fix agp_amd64_init and agp_amd64_cleanup"). The above commit changes agp_amd64_init() not to do anything if gart_iommu_aperture is not zero. If GART iommu calls agp_amd64_init(), we need to skip agp_amd64_init() when it's called later via module_init. The problem is that gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init() with not zero gart_iommu_aperture so agp_amd64_init() is never initialized. When gart_iommu_init() calls agp_amd64_init(), agp should be always initialized.

Nozomi goes wrong if you get the sequence open open close [stuff] close which turns out to occur on some ppp type setups. This is a quick patch up for the problem. It's not really fixing Nozomi which completely fails to implement tty open/close semantics and all the other needed stuff.

Bail out if we don't find an enclosing IOC. Previously, if we didn't find one, we tried to set things up using garbage for the SBA/IOC register address, which causes a crash.

2010-01-11agp/hp: fixup hp agp after ACPI changesBjorn Helgaas
Commit 15b8dd53f5ffa changed the string in info->hardware_id from a static array to a pointer and added a length field. But instead of changing "sizeof(array)" to "length", we changed it to "sizeof(length)" (== 4), which corrupts the string we're trying to null-terminate. We no longer even need to null-terminate the string, but we *do* need to check whether we found a HID. If there's no HID, we used to have an empty array, but now we have a null pointer. The combination of these defects causes this oops: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference (address 0000000000000003) modprobe[895]: Oops 8804682956800 [1] ip is at zx1_gart_probe+0xd0/0xcc0 [hp_agp] http://marc.info/?l=linux-ia64&m=126264484923647&w=2 Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reported-by: Émeric Maschino <emeric.maschino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

Move the pointer to the spinlock out of struct kfifo. Most users in tree do not actually use a spinlock, so the few exceptions now have to call kfifo_{get,put}_locked, which takes an extra argument to a spinlock.

2009-12-22kfifo: move struct kfifo in placeStefani Seibold
This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation. The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it. FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory resources. I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use: - The API is to simple, important functions are missing - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not - There is no support for data records inside a fifo So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up the API to much. The new API has the following benefits: - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver. - Provide an API for the most use case. - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions. - Linux style habit. - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo. - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator. - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo, which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary. - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if one is required. - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported: - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size field of 1 bytes. - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size field of 2 bytes. - Fixed size records, which no record size field. - Preserve memory resource. - Performance! - Easy to use! This patch: Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object, reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

2009-12-16efirtc: explicitly set llseek to no_llseekJohn Kacur
Now that we've removed the BKL here, let's explicitly set llseek to no_llseek since the default llseek is not used here. The default_llseek function still contains the BKL. When we are auditing code to see if we can remove the BKL, this is one of the hidden considerations we need to take into account. i.e., is there syncronization between code that has the BKL and llseek. At the same time we remove the BKL it would be a good idea to do indicate when no llseek function is required, so we don't have to revisit this code again, when we are trying to determine if we can remove the BKL from the default_llseek.

2009-12-16oom-kill: fix NUMA constraint check with nodemaskKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Fix node-oriented allocation handling in oom-kill.c I myself think of this as a bugfix not as an ehnancement. In these days, things are changed as - alloc_pages() eats nodemask as its arguments, __alloc_pages_nodemask(). - mempolicy don't maintain its own private zonelists. (And cpuset doesn't use nodemask for __alloc_pages_nodemask()) So, current oom-killer's check function is wrong. This patch does - check nodemask, if nodemask && nodemask doesn't cover all node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY], this is CONSTRAINT_MEMORY_POLICY. - Scan all zonelist under nodemask, if it hits cpuset's wall this faiulre is from cpuset. And - modifies the caller of out_of_memory not to call oom if __GFP_THISNODE. This doesn't change "current" behavior. If callers use __GFP_THISNODE it should handle "page allocation failure" by itself. - handle __GFP_NOFAIL+__GFP_THISNODE path. This is something like a FIXME but this gfpmask is not used now.
