d9c1e9a8ff [PATCH] tty: Fix two reported pid leaks
These leaks were reported by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marians@gmail.com>
and I have been able to very by inspection they are possible.

When converting tty_io.c to store pids as struct pid pointers instead
of pid_t values it appears I overlooked two places where we stop using
the pid value.  The very obvious one is in do_tty_hangup, and the one
the less obvious one in __proc_set_tty.

When looking into the code __proc_set_tty only has pids that need to
be put because of failures of other parts of the code to properly
perform hangup processing.   Fixing the leak here in __proc_set_tty
is easy and obviously correct so I am doing that first.

Fixing the places that should be performing hangup processing is much
less obviously correct.  So those I'm aiming those patches at -mm.
for now, so the can age a while before they are merged.

ca1b940ce6 [PATCH] i386: trust the PM-Timer calibration of the local APIC timer
When PM-Timer is available for local APIC timer calibration we can skip the
verification of the calibrated time value.  The resulting error is quite
small on a bunch of evaluated platforms and is less harming than the
observed false positives.

We need to keep the verification on systems, which have no PM-Timer to
avoid bogus local APIC timer calibrations in the range of factor 2-10,
which can be observed when swicthing off the PM-timer support in the kernel
configuration.

The wrong calibration values are probably caused by SMM code trying to
emulate a PS/2 keyboard from a (maybe connected or not) USB keyboard.  This
prohibits the accurate delivery of PIT interrupts, which are used to
calibrate the local APIC timer.  Unfortunately we have no way to disable
this BIOS misfeature in the early boot process.

Add also the dropped cpu_relax() back to the wait loops.

However, only the root is set but not the parent/child/sibling relationship

27aba76615 KVM: MMU: Fix host memory corruption on i386 with >= 4GB ram
PAGE_MASK is an unsigned long, so using it to mask physical addresses on
i386 (which are 64-bit wide) leads to truncation.  This can result in
page->private of unrelated memory pages being modified, with disasterous
results.

Fix by not using PAGE_MASK for physical addresses; instead calculate
the correct value directly from PAGE_SIZE.  Also fix a similar BUG_ON().

ac1b714e78 KVM: MMU: Fix guest writes to nonpae pde
KVM shadow page tables are always in pae mode, regardless of the guest
setting.  This means that a guest pde (mapping 4MB of memory) is mapped
to two shadow pdes (mapping 2MB each).

When the guest writes to a pte or pde, we intercept the write and emulate it.
We also remove any shadowed mappings corresponding to the write.  Since the
mmu did not account for the doubling in the number of pdes, it removed the
wrong entry, resulting in a mismatch between shadow page tables and guest
page tables, followed shortly by guest memory corruption.

This patch fixes the problem by detecting the special case of writing to
a non-pae pde and adjusting the address and number of shadow pdes zapped
accordingly.

120b9cfddf ide: remove CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO config options
All modern distributions have been setting these options to "y" for ages.
(additionally "n" cases have been obsoleted for few years).  Therefore use
DMA by default and remove CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO (also remove no longer
needed CONFIG_IDEDMA_AUTO).  This fixes DMA support for rare configurations
where CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO was set to "n" but "hdparm -d 1" was used
to enable DMA support and which were forced to PIO mode by "ide: don't allow
DMA to be enabled if CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO=n" patch.  There is no
functionality loss because "ide=nodma" kernel option is still available.

6f5050a96c ide: don't allow DMA to be enabled if CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO=n
For CONFIG_IDEDMA_{ICS,PCI}_AUTO=n and/or "ide=nodma" option the host/device
are not programmed for DMA and it is also explicitly disabled by ide_set_dma()
(->ide_dma_check returns "-1").  However the code responsible for manually
enabling DMA ("hdparm -d 1") has a bug which results in DMA being erroneously
enabled - ide_set_dma() incorrectly passes "0" return value to set_using_dma().
This may work if BIOS/firmware configured the host/device for DMA and chipset
allows independent configuration of DMA/PIO modes but won't work after suspend
and is generally unsafe on many chipsets (possibly including data corruption
if the same registers are used for DMA/PIO timings).

This patch fixes kernel bugzilla bug #8169 (piix host driver fixes for
setting PIO mode exposed the problem described above).  The side-effect of
the fix is that some rare configuration may be forced to PIO mode when DMA
mode was previously used - this is addressed by the next patch which removes
CONFIG_IDEDMA_{PCI,ICS}_AUTO config option completely.

Thanks goes out to Patrick Horn for reporting the issue, narrowing it down
to the specific commit and testing the fix.  Also thanks to Sergei Shtylyov
for help in debugging the problem.

e277a1aaa9 cmd64x: fix recovery time calculation (take 3)
The driver wrongly takes the address setup time into account when calculating
the PIO recovery time -- this leads to slight overclocking of the PIO modes 0
and 1 (so, the prayers failed to help, as usual :-).  Rework the code to be
calculating recovery clock count as a difference between the total cycle count
and the active count (we don't need to calculate the recovery time itself since
it's not specified for the PIO modes 0 to 2, and for modes 3 and 4 this formula
gives enough recovery time anyway in the chip's supported PCI frequency range).

This patch has been inspired by reading the datasheets and looking at what the
libata driver does; it has been compile-tested only (as usual :-) but anyway,
the new code gives the same or longer recovery times than the old one...

25496caec1 ACPI: Only use IPI on known broken machines (AMD, Dothan/BaniasPentium M)
Use IPI for blacklisted CPUs, add parameter IPI vs LAPIC

Currently, Linux disables lapic timer for all machines with C2 and higher
C-state support.

According to Intel only specific Intel models (Banias/Dothan) are broken
in respect of not waking up from C2 with lapic.

However, I am not sure about the naming of the parameter and how it
could/should get integrated into the dyntick part
(CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS). There, a more fine grained check (TSC
still running?, ..) is needed? Does this make sense (always use
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ON, but use OFF if forced by use_ipi=0:
clockevents_notify(use_ipi ? CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ON :
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_OFF, &pr->id);

cd05a1f818 [PATCH] clockevents: Fix suspend/resume to disk hangs
I finally found a dual core box, which survives suspend/resume without
crashing in the middle of nowhere. Sigh, I never figured out from the
code and the bug reports what's going on.

The observed hangs are caused by a stale state transition of the clock
event devices, which keeps the RCU synchronization away from completion,
when the non boot CPU is brought back up.

The suspend/resume in oneshot mode needs the similar care as the
periodic mode during suspend to RAM. My assumption that the state
transitions during the different shutdown/bringups of s2disk would go
through the periodic boot phase and then switch over to highres resp.
nohz mode were simply wrong.

Add the appropriate suspend / resume handling for the non periodic
modes.

6c912a3d33 [PATCH] spi_s3c24xx.c: warning fix
The set_cs field of struct s3c24xx_spi is declared as returning a int but
the value returned but set_cs is never fixed.  Moreover, the default
function for set_cs and the set_cs defintion in the platform data are
returning void.

I'm proposing to change the prototype to void (*set_cs)(...). By doing
this, I'm also fixing 2 build warnings:

  drivers/spi/spi_s3c24xx.c: In function 's3c24xx_spi_probe':
  drivers/spi/spi_s3c24xx.c:330: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type

d1cabd6326 [PATCH] fix process crash caused by randomisation and 64k pages
This bug was seen on ppc64, but it could have occurred on any
architecture with a page size of 64k or above.  The problem is that in
fs/binfmt_elf.c:randomize_stack_top() randomizes the stack to within
0x7ff pages.  On 4k page machines, this is 8MB; on 64k page boxes, this
is 128MB.

The problem is that the new binary layout (selected in
arch_pick_mmap_layout) places the mapping segment 128MB or the stack
rlimit away from the top of the process memory, whichever is larger.  If
you chose an rlimit of less than 128MB (most defaults are in the 8Mb
range) then you can end up having your entire stack randomized away.

The fix is to make randomize_stack_top() only steal at most 8MB, which this
patch does.  However, I have to point out that even with this, your stack
rlimit might not be exactly what you get if it's > 128MB, because you're
still losing the random offset of up to 8MB.

The true fix should be to leave an explicit gap for the randomization plus
a buffer when determining mmap_base, but that would involve fixing all the
architectures.

634707388b [PATCH] nfs: nfs_getattr() can't call nfs_sync_mapping_range() for non-regular files
Looks like we need a check in nfs_getattr() for a regular file. It makes
no sense to call nfs_sync_mapping_range() on anything else. I think that
should fix your problem: it will stop the NFS client from interfering
with dirty pages on that inode's mapping.

89a09141df [PATCH] nfs: fix congestion control
The current NFS client congestion logic is severly broken, it marks the
backing device congested during each nfs_writepages() call but doesn't
mirror this in nfs_writepage() which makes for deadlocks.  Also it
implements its own waitqueue.

Replace this by a more regular congestion implementation that puts a cap on
the number of active writeback pages and uses the bdi congestion waitqueue.

Also always use an interruptible wait since it makes sense to be able to
SIGKILL the process even for mounts without 'intr'.

The only error code which comes from the partition checkers is -1, when
they finds an EIO.  As per the discussion, ENOMEM values were ignored,
as they might scare the users.

So, with the current code, we end up returning -1 and not EIO for the
ioctl() calls.  Which doesn't give any clue to the user of what went
wrong.

1174cf7301 [PATCH] smbfs: double free memory corruption
smbfs allocates rq_trans2buffer to handle server's multi transaction2 response
messages.  As struct smb_request may be reused, rq_trans2buffer is freed
before each new request.  However if last servers's response is not multi but
single trans2 message then new rq_trans2buffer is not allocated but last
smb_rput still tries to free it again.

To prevent this issue rq_trans2buffer pointer should be set to NULL after
kfree.
