Shirley Ma c021eac414 virtio: Add ability to detach unused buffers from vrings
There's currently no way for a virtio driver to ask for unused
buffers, so it has to keep a list itself to reclaim them at shutdown.
This is redundant, since virtio_ring stores that information.  So
add a new hook to do this.

Christoph Hellwig 69740c8ba8 virtio_blk: add block topology support
Allow reading various alignment values from the config page.  This
allows the guest to much better align I/O requests depending on the
storage topology.

Note that the formats for the config values appear a bit messed up,
but we follow the formats used by ATA and SCSI so they are expected in
the storage world.

Michael S. Tsirkin d57ed95da4 virtio: use smp_XX barriers on SMP
virtio is communicating with a virtual "device" that actually runs on
another host processor. Thus SMP barriers can be used to control
memory access ordering.

Where possible, we should use SMP barriers which are more lightweight than
mandatory barriers, because mandatory barriers also control MMIO effects on
accesses through relaxed memory I/O windows (which virtio does not use)
(compare specifically smp_rmb and rmb on x86_64).

We can't just use smp_mb and friends though, because
we must force memory ordering even if guest is UP since host could be
running on another CPU, but SMP barriers are defined to barrier() in
that configuration. So, for UP fall back to mandatory barriers instead.

Rusty Russell 97a545ab6c virtio: remove bogus barriers from DEBUG version of virtio_ring.c
With DEBUG defined, we add an ->in_use flag to detect if the caller
invokes two virtio methods in parallel.  The barriers attempt to ensure
timely update of the ->in_use flag.

But they're voodoo: if we need these barriers it implies that the
calling code doesn't have sufficient synchronization to ensure the
code paths aren't invoked at the same time anyway, and we want to
detect it.

Also, adding barriers changes timing, so turning on debug has more
chance of hiding real problems.

Thanks to MST for drawing my attention to this code...

Adam Litke 1f34c71afe virtio: Fix scheduling while atomic in virtio_balloon stats
This is a fix for my earlier patch: "virtio: Add memory statistics reporting to
the balloon driver (V4)".

I discovered that all_vm_events() can sleep and therefore stats collection
cannot be done in interrupt context.  One solution is to handle the interrupt
by noting that stats need to be collected and waking the existing vballoon
kthread which will complete the work via stats_handle_request().  Rusty, is
this a saner way of doing business?

There is one issue that I would like a broader opinion on.  In stats_request, I
update vb->need_stats_update and then wake up the kthread.  The kthread uses
vb->need_stats_update as a condition variable.  Do I need a memory barrier
between the update and wake_up to ensure that my kthread sees the correct
value?  My testing suggests that it is not needed but I would like some
confirmation from the experts.

Adam Litke 9564e138b1 virtio: Add memory statistics reporting to the balloon driver (V4)
Changes since V3:
 - Do not do endian conversions as they will be done in the host
 - Report stats that reference a quantity of memory in bytes
 - Minor coding style updates

Changes since V2:
 - Increase stat field size to 64 bits
 - Report all sizes in kb (not pages)
 - Drop anon_pages stat and fix endianness conversion

Changes since V1:
 - Use a virtqueue instead of the device config space

When using ballooning to manage overcommitted memory on a host, a system for
guests to communicate their memory usage to the host can provide information
that will minimize the impact of ballooning on the guests.  The current method
employs a daemon running in each guest that communicates memory statistics to a
host daemon at a specified time interval.  The host daemon aggregates this
information and inflates and/or deflates balloons according to the level of
host memory pressure.  This approach is effective but overly complex since a
daemon must be installed inside each guest and coordinated to communicate with
the host.  A simpler approach is to collect memory statistics in the virtio
balloon driver and communicate them directly to the hypervisor.

This patch enables the guest-side support by adding stats collection and
reporting to the virtio balloon driver.

Michael Neuling a17e18790a fs/exec.c: fix initial stack reservation
803bf5ec25 ("fs/exec.c: restrict initial
stack space expansion to rlimit") attempts to limit the initial stack to
20*PAGE_SIZE.  Unfortunately, in attempting ensure the stack is not
reduced in size, we ended up not changing the stack at all.

This size reduction check is not necessary as the expand_stack call does
this already.

This caused a regression in UML resulting in most guest processes being
killed.

Tejun Heo d2e7276b6b idr: fix a critical misallocation bug, take#2
This is retry of reverted 859ddf0974
("idr: fix a critical misallocation bug") which contained two bugs.

* pa[idp->layers] should be cleared even if it's not used by
  sub_alloc() because it's used by mark idr_mark_full().

* The original condition check also assigned pa[l] to p which the new
  code didn't do thus leaving p pointing at the wrong layer.

Both problems have been fixed and the idr code has received good amount
testing using userland testing setup where simple bitmap allocator is
run parallel to verify the result of idr allocation.

The bug this patch fixes is caused by sub_alloc() optimization path
bypassing out-of-room condition check and restarting allocation loop
with starting value higher than maximum allowed value.  For detailed
description, please read commit message of 859ddf09.

Rafael J. Wysocki 61caf87cb5 i915 / PM: Fix hibernate regression caused by suspend/resume splitting
Commit 84b79f8d28 (drm/i915: Fix crash
while aborting hibernation) attempted to fix a regression introduced
by commit cbda12d77e (drm/i915:
implement new pm ops for i915), but it went too far trying to split
the freeze/suspend and resume/thaw parts of the code.  As a result,
it introduced another regression, which only is visible on some systems.

Fix the problem by merging i915_drm_suspend() with
i915_drm_freeze() and moving some code from i915_resume()
into i915_drm_thaw(), so that intel_opregion_free() and
intel_opregion_init() are also executed in the freeze and thaw code
paths, respectively.

Russell King d944d549aa ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel boot
Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
boot.  This can prevent systems booting properly.

There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
booted.

So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
the kernel command line.

David Howells 8f9941aecc CacheFiles: Fix a race in cachefiles_delete_object() vs rename
cachefiles_delete_object() can race with rename.  It gets the parent directory
of the object it's asked to delete, then locks it - but rename may have changed
the object's parent between the get and the completion of the lock.

However, if such a circumstance is detected, we abandon our attempt to delete
the object - since it's no longer in the index key path, it won't be seen
again by lookups of that key.  The assumption is that cachefilesd may have
culled it by renaming it to the graveyard for later destruction.

Samu Onkalo d9c4f84699 Input: polldev can cause crash in case when polling disabled
When polled input device is opened and closed and there are no other
users of polled device, the workqueue is created and destroyed in
every open / close operation. It is probable that at some point
dynamic allocation of internal parts of the workqueue cause changes to the
workqueue.

When a work is queued to the workqueue the work struct contains pointers
to the workqueue data. If the workqueue has been changed and the work
has never been queued to the new workqueue, work-struct contains pointers
to the non-existing workqueue. This will cause crash at the work
cancellation during device close since cancellation of a work assumes
that the workqueue exists.

To prevent that, work struct is cleaned up at device close. This keeps
work struct clean for the next use.

Ben Hutchings 242cc0547f sfc: SFE4002/SFN4112F: Widen temperature and voltage tolerances
The temperature and voltage limits currently set on these boards are
too conservative and will cause the driver to stop the net device
erroneously in some systems.

Based on a review of the chip datasheets and advice from the designer
of these boards:

- Raise the maximum board temperatures to the specified maximum ambient
  temperatures for their PHYs plus the expected temperature bias of the
  board
- Raise the maximum controller temperature to 90 degrees
- Lower the minimum temperatures to 0 degrees
- Widen the voltage tolerances to at least +/- 10%

methods are removed with the rtnl_lock held and block until
the existing methods stop executing.  So use rtnl_trylock

Eric W. Biederman 88af182e38 net: Fix sysctl restarts...
Yuck.  It turns out that when we restart sysctls we were restarting
with the values already changed.  Which unfortunately meant that
the second time through we thought there was no change and skipped
all kinds of work, despite the fact that there was indeed a change.

I have fixed this the simplest way possible by restoring the changed
values when we restart the sysctl write.

One of my coworkers spotted this bug when after disabling forwarding
on an interface pings were still forwarded.

David S. Miller 1f474646fd sparc64: Fix sun4u execute bit check in TSB I-TLB load.
Thanks to testcase and report from Brad Spengler:

--------------------
#include <stdio.h>

typedef int (* _wee)(void);

int main(void)
{
        char buf[8] = { '\x81', '\xc7', '\xe0', '\x08', '\x81', '\xe8',
                        '\x00', '\x00' };
        _wee wee;
        printf("%p\n", &buf);
        wee = (_wee)&buf;
        wee();

        return 0;
}
--------------------

TSB I-tlb load code tries to use andcc to check the _PAGE_EXEC_4U bit,
but that's bit 12 so it gets sign extended all the way up to bit 63
and the test nearly always passes as a result.

Use sethi to fix the bug.
