Jesper Dangaard Brouer de0368d5fe textsearch: doc - fix spelling in lib/textsearch.c.
Found the following spelling errors while reading the textsearch code:
  "facitilies"  -> "facilities"
  "continously" -> "continuously"
  "arbitary"    -> "arbitrary"
  "patern"      -> "pattern"
  "occurences"  -> "occurrences"

I'll try to push this patch through DaveM, given the only users
of textsearch is in the net/ tree (nf_conntrack_amanda.c, xt_string.c
and em_text.c)

Ben Hutchings c39649c331 lib: cpu_rmap: CPU affinity reverse-mapping
When initiating I/O on a multiqueue and multi-IRQ device, we may want
to select a queue for which the response will be handled on the same
or a nearby CPU.  This requires a reverse-map of IRQ affinity.  Add
library functions to support a generic reverse-mapping from CPUs to
objects with affinity and the specific case where the objects are
IRQs.

David Rientjes 6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

Lasse Collin 3ebe12439b decompressors: add boot-time XZ support
This implements the API defined in <linux/decompress/generic.h> which is
used for kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression.  This patch together
with the first patch is enough for XZ-compressed initramfs and initrd;
XZ-compressed kernel will need arch-specific changes.

The buffering requirements described in decompress_unxz.c are stricter
than with gzip, so the relevant changes should be done to the
arch-specific code when adding support for XZ-compressed kernel.
Similarly, the heap size in arch-specific pre-boot code may need to be
increased (30 KiB is enough).

The XZ decompressor needs memmove(), memeq() (memcmp() == 0), and
memzero() (memset(ptr, 0, size)), which aren't available in all
arch-specific pre-boot environments.  I'm including simple versions in
decompress_unxz.c, but a cleaner solution would naturally be nicer.

Lasse Collin 24fa0402a9 decompressors: add XZ decompressor module
In userspace, the .lzma format has become mostly a legacy file format that
got superseded by the .xz format.  Similarly, LZMA Utils was superseded by
XZ Utils.

These patches add support for XZ decompression into the kernel.  Most of
the code is as is from XZ Embedded <http://tukaani.org/xz/embedded.html>.
It was written for the Linux kernel but is usable in other projects too.

Advantages of XZ over the current LZMA code in the kernel:
  - Nice API that can be used by other kernel modules; it's
    not limited to kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression.
  - Integrity check support (CRC32)
  - BCJ filters improve compression of executable code on
    certain architectures. These together with LZMA2 can
    produce a few percent smaller kernel or Squashfs images
    than plain LZMA without making the decompression slower.

This patch: Add the main decompression code (xz_dec), testing module
(xz_dec_test), wrapper script (xz_wrap.sh) for the xz command line tool,
and documentation.  The xz_dec module is enough to have a usable XZ
decompressor e.g.  for Squashfs.

Lasse Collin fb7fa589fd Decompressors: fix callback-to-callback mode in decompress_unlzo.c
Callback-to-callback decompression mode is used for initrd (not
initramfs).  The LZO wrapper is broken for this use case for two reasons:

  - The argument validation is needlessly too strict by
    requiring that "posp" is non-NULL when "fill" is non-NULL.

  - The buffer handling code didn't work at all for this
    use case.

I tested with LZO-compressed kernel, initramfs, initrd, and corrupt
(truncated) initramfs and initrd images.

The return value of wr->flush() is not checked in write_byte().  This
means that the decompressor won't stop even if the caller doesn't want

Returning the error quickly allows the user to see the error message
quicker.

There is a similar missing check for wr.flush() near the end of unlzma().

Lasse Collin 278208d9d6 Decompressors: check for read errors in decompress_unlzma.c
Return value of rc->fill() is checked in rc_read() and error() is called
when needed, but then the code continues as if nothing had happened.

rc_read() is a void function and it's on the top of performance critical
call stacks, so propagating the error code via return values doesn't sound
like the best fix.  It seems better to check rc->buffer_size (which holds
the return value of rc->fill()) in the main loop.  It does nothing bad
that the code runs a little with unknown data after a failed rc->fill().

This fixes an infinite loop in initramfs decompression if the
LZMA-compressed initramfs image is corrupt.

Dan Rosenberg 455cd5ab30 kptr_restrict for hiding kernel pointers from unprivileged users
Add the %pK printk format specifier and the /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
sysctl.

The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

Huang Ying 81e88fdc43 ACPI, APEI, Generic Hardware Error Source POLL/IRQ/NMI notification type support
Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report platform
hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It works in so called
"Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware errors are reported to
firmware firstly, then reported to Linux by firmware. This way, some
non-standard hardware error registers or non-standard hardware link
can be checked by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error
information for Linux.

This patch adds POLL/IRQ/NMI notification types support.

Because the memory area used to transfer hardware error information
from BIOS to Linux can be determined only in NMI, IRQ or timer
handler, but general ioremap can not be used in atomic context, so a
special version of atomic ioremap is implemented for that.

Known issue:

- Error information can not be printed for recoverable errors notified
  via NMI, because printk is not NMI-safe. Will fix this via delay
  printing to IRQ context via irq_work or make printk NMI-safe.

v2:

- adjust printk format per comments.

Don Zickus 4a7863cc2e x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and rely on CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR
The x86 arch has shifted its use of the nmi_watchdog from a
local implementation to the global one provide by
kernel/watchdog.c.  This shift has caused a whole bunch of
compile problems under different config options.  I attempt to
simplify things with the patch below.

In order to simplify things, I had to come to terms with the
meaning of two terms ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.  Basically they mean the same thing,
the former on a local level and the latter on a global level.

With the old x86 nmi watchdog gone, there is no need to rely on
defining the ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG variable because it doesn't
make sense any more.  x86 will now use the global
implementation.

The changes below do a few things.  First it changes the few
places that relied on ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG to use
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC (the former was an alias for the latter
anyway, so nothing unusual here).  Those pieces of code were
relying more on local apic functionality the nmi watchdog
functionality, so the change should make sense.

Second, I removed the x86 implementation of
touch_nmi_watchdog().  It isn't need now, instead x86 will rely
on kernel/watchdog.c's implementation.

Third, I removed the #define ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG itself from
x86.  And tweaked the include/linux/nmi.h file to tell users to
look for an externally defined touch_nmi_watchdog in the case of
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _or_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. This
changes removes some of the ugliness in that file.

Finally, I added a Kconfig dependency for
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR that said you can't have
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _and_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.  You can
only have one nmi_watchdog.

Tested with
ARCH=i386: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig, (various broken
configs) ARCH=x86_64: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig,
(various broken configs)

Hopefully, after this patch I won't get any more compile broken
emails. :-)

v3:
  changed a couple of 'linux/nmi.h' -> 'asm/nmi.h' to pick-up correct function
  prototypes when CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not set.

John Stultz 87de5ac782 timers: Introduce timerlist infrastructure.
The timerlist infrastructure is a thin layer over the rbtree
code that implements a simple list of timers sorted by an
expires value, and a getnext function that provides a pointer
to the earliest timer.

This infrastructure allows drivers and other kernel infrastructure
to easily implement timers without duplicating code.

Dave Airlie bcb38ceb22 Revert "debug_locks: set oops_in_progress if we will log messages."
This reverts commit e0fdace10e.

On-list discussion seems to suggest that the robustness fixes for printk
make this unnecessary and DaveM has also agreed in person at Kernel Summit
and on list.

The main problem with this code is once we hit a lockdep splat we always
keep oops_in_progress set, the console layer uses oops_in_progress with KMS
to decide when it should be showing the oops and not showing X, so it causes
problems around suspend/resume time when a userspace resume can cause a console
switch away from X, only if oops_in_progress is set (which is what we want
if an oops actually is in progress, but not because we had a lockdep splat
2 days prior).

Jan Engelhardt 3654654f7a netlink: let nlmsg and nla functions take pointer-to-const args
The changed functions do not modify the NL messages and/or attributes
at all. They should use const (similar to strchr), so that callers
which have a const nlmsg/nlattr around can make use of them without
casting.

While at it, constify a data array.

Nick Piggin 27d20fddc8 radix-tree: fix RCU bug
Salman Qazi describes the following radix-tree bug:

In the following case, we get can get a deadlock:

0.  The radix tree contains two items, one has the index 0.
1.  The reader (in this case find_get_pages) takes the rcu_read_lock.
2.  The reader acquires slot(s) for item(s) including the index 0 item.
3.  The non-zero index item is deleted, and as a consequence the other item is
    moved to the root of the tree. The place where it used to be is queued for
    deletion after the readers finish.
3b. The zero item is deleted, removing it from the direct slot, it remains in
    the rcu-delayed indirect node.
4.  The reader looks at the index 0 slot, and finds that the page has 0 ref
    count
5.  The reader looks at it again, hoping that the item will either be freed or
    the ref count will increase. This never happens, as the slot it is looking
    at will never be updated. Also, this slot can never be reclaimed because
    the reader is holding rcu_read_lock and is in an infinite loop.

The fix is to re-use the same "indirect" pointer case that requires a slot
lookup retry into a general "retry the lookup" bit.
