Antonino A. Daplas 6d36ba629e [PATCH] vgacon: Fix sanity checking in vgacon_resize
Reported by: walt <wa1ter@myrealbox.com>

"I routinely switch the console font during bootup to
8x8 so I can get 50 lines per screen.  Until 09 Sept,
just changing to the small font automatically gave me
all 50 lines -- but now I'm only getting 25 lines even
with the small font.  The bottom half of the screen
displays the text that already scrolled off the top."

This bug is due to an erroneous check in the recently added hook,
vgacon_resize(). It checks the new height against the original number of
rows of the console. Because the original number of rows depends on both
the scanline and the font height, check it instead against the
scanline/fontheight.

Jimi Xenidis be201f7f4c [PATCH] ppc64: Fix recent regression
As noted by Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>:

  "A recent patch changed the way the LPAR bit is checked during early
   boot.  This resulted in a polarity change in a conditional branch
   without changing the branch, causing at least some legacy machines to
   not boot."

This fixes it.

Russell King 1b3cb73f73 [ARM] Tighten pfn_valid() test.
Thomas Gleixner reported that mmaping and unmapping each physical
page in turn eventually caused the kernel to oops.  It appears
that pfn_valid() in the discontigmem case was too simplistic for
proper operation.

Tighten the logic so we also check if the PFN is within the range
of the selected memory node.

Lennert Buytenhek 917afce100 [ARM] 2911/1: ixp2000_reg_{read,write} accessors
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

This patch:
- changes the ixp2000_reg_write accessor to take a 'volatile void *'
  instead of a 'volatile unsigned long *', which then allows passing in
  a u32 * as first argument without being greeted with a warning; and
- adds an ixp2000_reg_read accessor.
We can then use these accessors in ixp2000 code to access on-chip
peripherals, instead of directly dereferencing pointers.  This is for
use by the ixp2000 microengine driver which was recently announced on
netdev.  We can't use readl/writel on the ixp2000 since it is usually
run in big-endian mode, and on big-endian platforms, readl/writel
perform byteswapping.
A future patch will remove the readback from ixp2000_reg_write, since
it's not needed to prevent erratum #66, and add manual readbacks to the
places that need them (writes are not synchronous since we map in device
space using XCB=101 nowadays), such as interrupt disabling and GPIO
manipulation.  See also:

Julian Anastasov 87375ab47c [IPVS]: ip_vs_ftp breaks connections using persistence
ip_vs_ftp when loaded can create NAT connections with unknown client
port for passive FTP. For such expectations we lookup with cport=0 on
incoming packet but it matches the format of the persistence templates
causing packets to other persistent virtual servers to be forwarded to
real server without creating connection. Later the reply packets are
treated as foreign and not SNAT-ed.

This patch changes the connection lookup for packets from clients:

* introduce IP_VS_CONN_F_TEMPLATE connection flag to mark the
  connection as template

* create new connection lookup function just for templates -
  ip_vs_ct_in_get

* make sure ip_vs_conn_in_get hits only connections with
  IP_VS_CONN_F_NO_CPORT flag set when s_port is 0. By this way
  we avoid returning template when looking for cport=0 (ftp)

Linus Torvalds 1619cca292 Partially revert "Fix time going twice as fast problem on ATI Xpress chipsets"
Commit 66759a01ad introduced the fix for
time ticking too fast on some boards by disabling one of the doubly
connected timer pins on ATI boards.

However, it ends up being _much_ too broad a brush, and that just makes
some other ATI boards not work at all since they now have no timer
source.

So disable the automatic ATI southbridge detection, and just rely on
people who see this problem disabling it by hand with the option
"disable_timer_pin_1" on the kernel command line.

Maybe somebody can figure out the proper tests at a later date.

OK, my fault.  Your fix is almost correct .. I was going to do this
eventually, honest, because there's no need to unprep and reprep a
command that comes in through scsi_queue_insert().

However, I decided to leave it in to exercise the scsi_unprep_request()
path just to make sure it was working.  What's happening, I think, is
that we also use this path for retries.  Since we kill and reget the
command each time, the retries decrement is never seen, so we're
retrying forever.

Alok Kataria c7e43c78ae [PATCH] Fix slab BUG_ON() triggered by change in array cache size
With the new changes that we made in the initialization of the slab
allocator, we first setup the cache from which array caches are allocated,
and then the cache, from which kmem_list3's are allocated.

Now if the array cache comes from a cache in which objsize > 32, (in this
instance size-64) then, first size-64 cache will be allocated and then the
size-128 (if this is the cache from which kmem_list3's are going to be
allocated).

So with these new changes, we are not guaranteed that we will be
initializing the malloc_sizes array in a serialized order. Thus there is
a bug in __find_general_cachep, as we are checking whether the first
cache_sizes ptr is NULL.

This is replaced by checking whether the array-cache cache is initialized.
Attached is a patch which does that.  Boots fine on a x86-64, with
DEBUG_SPIN, DEBUG_SLAB, and preempt.

Hugh Dickins 2fd4ef85e0 [PATCH] error path in setup_arg_pages() misses vm_unacct_memory()
Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of
security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a
failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants).

These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only
be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some
cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't.

So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into
Committed_AS each time they're run.  But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them,
it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb
be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in
do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved.

The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do
the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set.

And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before
calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking.
Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory:
give it a less misleading name later on.

Alexander Nyberg fb085cf1d4 [PATCH] Fix fs/exec.c:788 (de_thread()) BUG_ON
It turns out that the BUG_ON() in fs/exec.c: de_thread() is unreliable
and can trigger due to the test itself being racy.

de_thread() does
 	while (atomic_read(&sig->count) > count) {
	}
	.....
	.....
	BUG_ON(!thread_group_empty(current));

but release_task does
	write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock)
	__exit_signal
		(this is where atomic_dec(&sig->count) is run)
	__exit_sighand
	__unhash_process
		takes write lock on tasklist_lock
		remove itself out of PIDTYPE_TGID list
	write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock)

so there's a clear (although small) window between the
atomic_dec(&sig->count) and the actual PIDTYPE_TGID unhashing of the
thread.

And actually there is no need for all threads to have exited at this
point, so we simply kill the BUG_ON.

Big thanks to Marc Lehmann who provided the test-case.

John W. Linville 32a3658533 [PATCH] pci: only call pci_restore_bars at boot
Certain (SGI?) ia64 boxes object to having their PCI BARs
restored unless absolutely necessary. This patch restricts calling
pci_restore_bars from pci_set_power_state unless the current state
is PCI_UNKNOWN, the actual (i.e. physical) state of the device is
PCI_D3hot, and the device indicates that it will lose its configuration
when transitioning to PCI_D0.
