except through the per-task load driven hmp_migrate/hmp_offload paths.
Further, the nohz balance kick is actively harmful to power usage if
all the tasks fit into the little domain since it causes the big

there is nothing to do.
A more generic solution is to walk the sched domain tree and determine

This is intended to help performance for applications which use

It is common, for example, for Android apps following the dev

powerpc/pci: Improve device hotplug initialization
Commit
37f02195b (powerpc/pci: fix PCI-e devices rescan issue on powerpc
platform) fixes a problem with interrupt and DMA initialization on hot
plugged devices. With this commit, interrupt and DMA initialization for
hot plugged devices is handled in the pci device enable function.
This approach has a couple of drawbacks. First, it creates two code paths
for device initialization, one for hot plugged devices and another for devices
known during the initial PCI scan. Second, the initialization code for hot
plugged devices is only called when the device is enabled, ie typically
in the probe function. Also, the platform specific setup code is called each
time pci_enable_device() is called, not only once during device discovery,
meaning it is actually called multiple times, once for devices discovered
during the initial scan and again each time a driver is re-loaded.
The visible result is that interrupt pins are only assigned to hot plugged
devices when the device driver is loaded. Effectively this changes the PCI
probe API, since pci_dev->irq and the device's dma configuration will now
only be valid after pci_enable() was called at least once. A more subtle
change is that platform specific PCI device setup is moved from device
discovery into the driver's probe function, more specifically into the
pci_enable_device() call.
To fix the inconsistencies, add new function pcibios_add_device.
Call pcibios_setup_device from pcibios_setup_bus_devices if device setup
is not complete, and from pcibios_add_device if bus setup is complete.
With this change, device setup code is moved back into device initialization,
and called exactly once for both static and hot plugged devices.
[ This also fixes a regression introduced by the above patch which
causes dev->irq to be overwritten under some cirumstances after
MSIs have been enabled for the device which leads to crashes due
to the MSI core "hijacking" dev->irq to store the base MSI number
and not the LSI. --BenH

UBIFS: fix a horrid bug
Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no
mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are
in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'.
This means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses
it, and this is a very bad bug: not only 'ubifs_readdir()' can return garbage,
but this may corrupt memory and lead to all kinds of problems like crashes an
security holes.
This patch fixes the problem by using the 'file->f_version' field, which
'->llseek()' always unconditionally sets to zero. We set it to 1 in
'ubifs_readdir()' and whenever we detect that it became 0, we know there was a
seek and it is time to clear the state saved in 'file->private_data'.
I tested this patch by writing a user-space program which runds readdir and
seek in parallell. I could easily crash the kernel without these patches, but
could not crash it with these patches.

Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no

First of all, this means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while
'ubifs_readdir()' uses it. But this particular patch does not fix the problem.
This patch is only a preparation, and the fix will follow next.
In this patch we make 'ubifs_readdir()' stop using 'file->f_pos' directly,
because 'file->f_pos' can be changed by '->llseek()' at any point. This may
lead 'ubifs_readdir()' to returning inconsistent data: directory entry names
may correspond to incorrect file positions.
So here we introduce a local variable 'pos', read 'file->f_pose' once at very
the beginning, and then stick to 'pos'. The result of this is that when
'ubifs_dir_llseek()' changes 'file->f_pos' while we are in the middle of
'ubifs_readdir()', the latter "wins".

mn10300: Use early_param() to parse "mem=" parameter
This fixes the problem that "init=" options may not be passed to kernel
correctly.
parse_mem_cmdline() of mn10300 arch gets rid of "mem=" string from
redboot_command_line. Then init_setup() parses the "init=" options from
static_command_line, which is a copy of redboot_command_line, and keeps
the pointer to the init options in execute_command variable.
Since the commit
026cee0 upstream (params: <level>_initcall-like kernel
parameters), static_command_line becomes overwritten by saved_command_line at
do_initcall_level(). Notice that saved_command_line is a command line
which includes "mem=" string.
As a result, execute_command may point to weird string by the length of
"mem=" parameter.
I noticed this problem when using the command line like this:
mem=128M console=ttyS0,115200 init=/bin/sh
Here is the processing flow of command line parameters.
start_kernel()
setup_arch(&command_line)
parse_mem_cmdline(cmdline_p)
* strcpy(boot_command_line, redboot_command_line);
* Remove "mem=xxx" from redboot_command_line.
* *cmdline_p = redboot_command_line;
setup_command_line(command_line) <-- command_line is redboot_command_line
* strcpy(saved_command_line, boot_command_line)
* strcpy(static_command_line, command_line)

strlcpy(tmp_cmdline, boot_command_line, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
parse_early_options(tmp_cmdline);
parse_args("early options", cmdline, NULL, 0, 0, 0, do_early_param);
parse_args("Booting ..", static_command_line, ...);
init_setup() <-- save the pointer in execute_command
rest_init()
kernel_thread(kernel_init, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_SIGHAND);
At this point, execute_command points to "/bin/sh" string.
kernel_init()
kernel_init_freeable()
do_basic_setup()
do_initcalls()
do_initcall_level()
(*) strcpy(static_command_line, saved_command_line);
Here, execute_command gets to point to "200" string !!

Sending the right snapshot context with each write is required for
snapshots to work. Due to the ordering of calls, the snapshot context
is never set for any requests. This causes writes to the current
version of the image to be reflected in all snapshots, which are
supposed to be read-only.
This happens because rbd_osd_req_format_write() sets the snapshot
context based on obj_request->img_request. At this point, however,
obj_request->img_request has not been set yet, to the snapshot context

net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.
When the kernel (compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) is performing the
rename of a network interface, it can end up waiting for a workqueue
to complete. If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a
SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to
the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the
writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the
devnet_rename_seq sequence.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name())
and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and
SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt.
The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid
spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become
even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying
the access to give the writer process a chance to finish.
The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the
reader process in the contended case, but this is better than
deadlocking the system.

The PM part is one fix for a cpufreq regression introduced recently
- Fix for an ACPI dock regression introduced by the recent rework of
the ACPI-based PCI hotplug code (acpiphp) that caused it to be
initialized before the ACPI dock driver, which is incorrect (ACPI
dock has to be initialized before acpiphp so that acpiphp can
register PCI devices on docking stations with it for PCI hotplug on
re-dock to work). From Jiang Liu.
- Fix for PCI resources allocation in the ACPI-based PCI hotplug code
(acpiphp) that makes it use the same PCI resources assignment rules
during runtime hotplug that are used during boot (the BIOS' choices
are now respected in both cases). This prevents PCI resource
allocation failures during hotplug from happening in some cases.
From Jiang Liu.
- Fix for ordering and synchronization issues during hot-removal of
PCI devices on docking stations. It makes the ACPI dock code carry
out the PCI devices removal synchronously during undock instead of
spawning a separate asynchronous work item to remove each of them
without even bothering to wait for all those work items to
complete. The hot-addition part is changed analogously.
- Fix for a regression (introduced a few releases ago) that removed
the code to register a hotplug notificaion handler for for ATA
ports/devices inadvertently which prevented ATA bays hotplug from
working. The missing code is added back with some improvements.

gpio/omap: don't use linear domain mapping for OMAP1
Commit
ede4d7a5 ("gpio/omap: convert gpio irq domain to linear mapping")
converted the OMAP GPIO driver to use a linear mapping for the GPIO IRQ
domain instead of using a legacy mapping. Not using a legacy mapping has
a number of benefits but it requires the platform to support SPARSE_IRQ
which currently is not supported on OMAP1.
So this change caused a regression on OMAP1 platforms [1].
Since this issue is not present on all OMAP2+ platforms, there is no need to
revert the driver to use legacy domain mapping for all the platforms.

net/tg3: Avoid delay during MMIO access
When the EEH error is the result of a fenced host bridge, MMIO accesses
can be very slow (milliseconds) to timeout and return all 1's,

trigger soft-lockup warnings (in addition to taking minutes to recover).
It might be worthwhile to check if for any of these cases,
ffffffff is

fcoe: Use correct API to set vlan tag for FCoE Ethertype skbs
fcoe_xmit was coded such that it would skip the vlan net device/layer
and instead set some vlan flags and transmit on the real net device.
The real net device has code that would add the vlan tag for fcoe skbs.
This avoids some extra processing for data frames and provides a small
performance improvement.
Since fcoe_xmit was not using the vlan net device, __vlan_put_tag
within the real net device's xmit routine was ultimately being
called to set the vlan tag.
With the below change the behavior of __vlan_put_tag changed slightly,
it now sets the skb->protocol = vlan_proto. vlan_proto was not a field
being set by fcoe_xmit, so the skb->protocol is now not being set to
ETH_P_8021Q, as it should be.
This patch converts fcoe_xmit to use the vlan_put_tag routine which
will tag the skb and fcoe will continue to transmit fcoe skbs on the
real net device.
For reference, the below change was the one that altered the
__vlan_put_tag behavior.

The use of wait_for_completion_interruptible is intentional so that
we don't lock up the thread if a bug causes us to never wake up.
This bug is caused by the helper thread using the larval without
holding a reference count on it. If the helper thread completes
after the original thread requesting for help has gone away and
destroyed the larval, then we get the crash above.
So the fix is to hold a reference count on the larval.

drm/i915: make compact dma scatter lists creation work with SWIOTLB backend.
Git commit
90797e6d1ec0dfde6ba62a48b9ee3803887d6ed4
("drm/i915: create compact dma scatter lists for gem objects") makes
certain assumptions about the under laying DMA API that are not always
correct.
On a ThinkPad X230 with an Intel HD 4000 with Xen during the bootup
I see:
[drm:intel_pipe_set_base] *ERROR* pin & fence failed
[drm:intel_crtc_set_config] *ERROR* failed to set mode on [CRTC:3], err = -28
Bit of debugging traced it down to dma_map_sg failing (in
i915_gem_gtt_prepare_object) as some of the SG entries were huge (3MB).
That unfortunately are sizes that the SWIOTLB is incapable of handling -
the maximum it can handle is a an entry of 512KB of virtual contiguous
memory for its bounce buffer. (See IO_TLB_SEGSIZE).
Previous to the above mention git commit the SG entries were of 4KB, and
the code introduced by above git commit squashed the CPU contiguous PFNs
in one big virtual address provided to DMA API.
This patch is a simple semi-revert - were we emulate the old behavior
if we detect that SWIOTLB is online. If it is not online then we continue
on with the new compact scatter gather mechanism.
An alternative solution would be for the the '.get_pages' and the
i915_gem_gtt_prepare_object to retry with smaller max gap of the
amount of PFNs that can be combined together - but with this issue
discovered during rc7 that might be too risky.

One remaining regression fix for i915. I've left it in -fixes for more
than a week since it's in tricky code, and it took us a few kernel
releases to notice the regression at all. The fence leak is especially
annoying on gen2/3 and will kill userspace there quickly. For extra
paranoia we've added a WARN in -next to catch this, things seem to be
solid now.

libata-acpi: add back ACPI based hotplug functionality
Commit
30dcf76acc69 "libata: migrate ACPI code over to new bindings"
mistakenly dropped the code to register hotplug notificaion handler
for ATA port/devices, causing regression for people using ATA bay,
as kernel bug #59871 shows.
Fix this by adding back the hotplug notification handler registration
code. Since this code has to be run once and notification needs to
be installed on every ATA port/devices handle no matter if there is
actual device attached, we can't do this in binding time for ATA
device ACPI handle, as the binding only occurs when a SCSI device is
created, i.e. there is device attached. So introduce the
ata_acpi_hotplug_init() function to loop scan all ATA ACPI handles
and if it is available, install the notificaion handler for it during
ATA init time.
With the ATA ACPI handle binding to SCSI device tree, it is possible
now that when the SCSI hotplug work removes the SCSI device, the ACPI
unbind function will find that the corresponding ACPI device has
already been deleted by dock driver, causing a scaring message like:
[ 128.263966] scsi 4:0:0:0: Oops, 'acpi_handle' corrupt
Fix this by waiting for SCSI hotplug task finish in our notificaion
handler, so that the removal of ACPI device done in ACPI unbind
function triggered by the removal of SCSI device is run earlier when
ACPI device is still available.
