Bjorn Helgaas a1862e3107 resources: handle overflow when aligning start of available area
If tmp.start is near ~0, ALIGN(tmp.start) may overflow, which would
make us think there's more available space than there really is.  We
would likely return something that conflicts with a previous resource,
which would cause a failure when allocate_resource() requests the newly-
allocated region.

Bjorn Helgaas 6909ba14c2 resources: ensure callback doesn't allocate outside available space
The alignment callback returns a proposed location, which may have been
adjusted to avoid ISA aliases or for other architecture-specific reasons.

We already had a check ("tmp.start < tmp.end") to make sure the callback
doesn't return an area that extends past the available area.  This patch
reworks the check to make sure it doesn't return an area that extends
either below or above the available area.

Bjorn Helgaas 1ca98fa652 x86/PCI: MMCONFIG: fix region end calculation
The end of an MMCONFIG region depends on the ending bus number, not on the
number of buses the region covers.  We previously computed the wrong ending
address whenever the starting bus number was non-zero, e.g.,:

  MMCONFIG for [bus 00-1f] at [mem 0xe0000000-0xe1ffffff] (base 0xe0000000)
  MMCONFIG for [bus 20-3f] at [mem 0xe2000000-0xe1ffffff] (base 0xe0000000)

The correct regions are:

  MMCONFIG for [bus 00-1f] at [mem 0xe0000000-0xe1ffffff] (base 0xe0000000)
  MMCONFIG for [bus 20-3f] at [mem 0xe2000000-0xe3ffffff] (base 0xe0000000)

Not all hardware vendors hook up the PME line for legacy PCI devices,
meaning that wakeup events get lost. The only way around this is to poll
the devices to see if their state has changed, so add support for doing

Neil Horman 66db60eaf1 PCI: add quirk for non-symmetric-mode irq routing to versions 0 and 4 of the MCP55 northbridge
A long time ago I worked on a RHEL5 bug in which kdump hung during boot
on a set of systems.  The systems hung because they never received timer
interrupts during calibrate_delay.  These systems also all had Opteron
processors on a hypertransport bus, bridged to a pci bus via an Nvidia
MCP55 northbridge chip.  After much wrangling I managed to learn from
Nvidia that they have an undocumented register in some versions of that
chip which control how legacy interrupts are send to the cpu complex
when the ioapic isn't active.  Nvidia defaults this register to only
send legacy interrupts to the BSP, so if kdump happens to boot on an AP,
we never get timer interrupts and boom.  I had initially used this quirk
as a workaround, with my intent being to move apic initalization to an
earlier point in the boot process, so the setting of the register would
be irrelevant.  Given the work involved in doing that however, the
fragile nature of the apic initalization code, and the fact that, over
the 2 years since we found this bug, the MCP55 is the only chip which
seems to have this issue, I've figure at this point its likely safer to
just carry the quirk around.  By setting the referenced bits in this
hidden register, interrupts will be broadcast to all cpus when the
ioapic isn't active on the above described systems.

Rafael J. Wysocki b22c3d8275 PCI/PCIe/AER: Disable native AER service if BIOS has precedence
There is a design issue related to PCIe AER and _OSC that the BIOS
may be asked to grant control of the AER service even if some
Hardware Error Source Table (HEST) entries contain information
meaning that the BIOS really should control it.  Namely,
pcie_port_acpi_setup() calls pcie_aer_get_firmware_first() that
determines whether or not the AER service should be controlled by
the BIOS on the basis of the HEST information for the given PCIe
port.  The BIOS is asked to grant control of the AER service for
a PCIe Root Complex if pcie_aer_get_firmware_first() returns 'false'
for at least one root port in that complex, even if all of the other
root ports' HEST entries have the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set (and none
of them has the GLOBAL flag set).  However, if the AER service is
controlled by the kernel, that may interfere with the BIOS' handling
of the error sources having the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag.  Moreover,
there may be PCIe endpoints that have the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set in
HEST and are attached to the root ports in question, in which case it
also may be unsafe to ask the BIOS for control of the AER service.

For this reason, introduce a function checking if there's at least
one PCIe-related HEST entry with the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set and
disable the native AER service altogether if this function returns
'true'.

Linus Torvalds 3aa0ce825a Un-inline the core-dump helper functions
Tony Luck reports that the addition of the access_ok() check in commit
0eead9ab41 ("Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumps") broke the
ia64 compile due to missing the necessary header file includes.

Rather than add yet another include (<asm/unistd.h>) to make everything
happy, just uninline the silly core dump helper functions and move the
bodies to fs/exec.c where they make a lot more sense.

dump_seek() in particular was too big to be an inline function anyway,
and none of them are in any way performance-critical.  And we really
don't need to mess up our include file headers more than they already
are.

Linus Torvalds 0eead9ab41 Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumps
akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct
dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes
back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping
code).  Just remove it.

Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write().  It probably doesn't
matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he
points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ...

[ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of
  calling ->write directly.  That also does the whole fsnotify and write
  statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ]

And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation
code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even
compile)

Dan Williams c50a898fd4 ioat2: fix performance regression
Commit 0793448 "DMAENGINE: generic channel status v2" changed the interface for
how dma channel progress is retrieved.  It inadvertently exported an internal
helper function ioat_tx_status() instead of ioat_dma_tx_status().  The latter
polls the hardware to get the latest completion state, while the helper just
evaluates the current state without touching hardware.  The effect is that we
end up waiting for completion timeouts or descriptor allocation errors before
the completion state is updated.

iperf (before fix):
[SUM]  0.0-41.3 sec   364 MBytes  73.9 Mbits/sec

iperf (after fix):
[SUM]  0.0- 4.5 sec   499 MBytes   940 Mbits/sec

This is a regression starting with 2.6.35.

Greg Ungerer 6fcc040f02 net: allow FEC driver to use fixed PHY support
At least one board using the FEC driver does not have a conventional
PHY attached to it, it is directly connected to a somewhat simple
ethernet switch (the board is the SnapGear/LITE, and the attached
4-port ethernet switch is a RealTek RTL8305). This switch does not
present the usual register interface of a PHY, it presents nothing.
So a PHY scan will find nothing - it finds ID's of 0 for each PHY
on the attached MII bus.

After the FEC driver was changed to use phylib for supporting PHYs
it no longer works on this particular board/switch setup.

Add code support to use a fixed phy if no PHY is found on the MII bus.
This is based on the way the cpmac.c driver solved this same problem.

Mika Westerberg 10d48b3934 ARM: 6440/1: ep93xx: DMA: fix channel_disable
When channel_disable() is called, it disables per channel interrupts and
waits until channels state becomes STATE_STALL, and then disables the
channel. Now, if the DMA transfer is disabled while the channel is in
STATE_NEXT we will not wait anything and disable the channel immediately.
This seems to cause weird data corruption for example in audio transfers.

Fix is to wait while we are in STATE_NEXT or STATE_ON and only then
disable the channel.

Each event has a 27 bit delta stamp from the last event. The unit of time
is nanoseconds, so 27 bits can hold ~134 milliseconds. If two events
happen more than 134 milliseconds apart, a time extend is inserted
to add more bits for the delta. The time extend has 59 bits, which
is good for ~18 years.

Currently the time extend is committed separately from the event.
If an event is discarded before it is committed, due to filtering,
the time extend still exists. If all events are being filtered, then
after ~134 milliseconds a new time extend will be added to the buffer.

This can only happen till the end of the page. Since each page holds
a full timestamp, there is no reason to add a time extend to the
beginning of a page. Time extends can only fill a page that has actual
data at the beginning, so there is no fear that time extends will fill
more than a page without any data.

When reading an event, a loop is made to skip over time extends
since they are only used to maintain the time stamp and are never
given to the caller. As a paranoid check to prevent the loop running
forever, with the knowledge that time extends may only fill a page,
a check is made that tests the iteration of the loop, and if the
iteration is more than the number of time extends that can fit in a page
a warning is printed and the ring buffer is disabled (all of ftrace
is also disabled with it).

There is another event type that is called a TIMESTAMP which can
hold 64 bits of data in the theoretical case that two events happen
18 years apart. This code has not been implemented, but the name
of this event exists, as well as the structure for it. The
size of a TIMESTAMP is 16 bytes, where as a time extend is only
8 bytes. The macro used to calculate how many time extends can fit on
a page used the TIMESTAMP size instead of the time extend size
cutting the amount in half.

The following test case can easily trigger the warning since we only
need to have half the page filled with time extends to trigger the
warning:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
 # echo function > current_tracer
 # echo 'common_pid < 0' > events/ftrace/function/filter
 # echo > trace
 # echo 1 > trace_marker
 # sleep 120
 # cat trace

Enabling the function tracer and then setting the filter to only trace
functions where the process id is negative (no events), then clearing
the trace buffer to ensure that we have nothing in the buffer,
then write to trace_marker to add an event to the beginning of a page,
sleep for 2 minutes (only 35 seconds is probably needed, but this
guarantees the bug), and then finally reading the trace which will
trigger the bug.

This patch fixes the typo and prevents the false positive of that warning.

Jean Delvare a8c051f0c8 drm/radeon/kms: Silent spurious error message
I see the following error message in my kernel log from time to time:
radeon 0000:07:00.0: ffff88007c334000 reserve failed for wait
radeon 0000:07:00.0: ffff88007c334000 reserve failed for wait

After investigation, it turns out that there's nothing to be afraid of
and everything works as intended. So remove the spurious log message.

Jerome Glisse c919b371cb drm/radeon/kms: avoid corner case issue with unmappable vram V2
We should not allocate any object into unmappable vram if we
have no means to access them which on all GPU means having the
CP running and on newer GPU having the blit utility working.

This patch limit the vram allocation to visible vram until
we have acceleration up and running.

Note that it's more than unlikely that we run into any issue
related to that as when acceleration is not woring userspace
should allocate any object in vram beside front buffer which
should fit in visible vram.

V2 use real_vram_size as mc_vram_size could be bigger than
   the actual amount of vram
