225c8e010f kernel/smp.c: consolidate writes in smp_call_function_interrupt()
We have to test the cpu mask in the interrupt handler before checking the
refs, otherwise we can start to follow an entry before its deleted and
find it partially initailzed for the next trip.  Presently we also clear
the cpumask bit before executing the called function, which implies
getting write access to the line.  After the function is called we then
decrement refs, and if they go to zero we then unlock the structure.

However, this implies getting write access to the call function data
before and after another the function is called.  If we can assert that no
smp_call_function execution function is allowed to enable interrupts, then
we can move both writes to after the function is called, hopfully allowing
both writes with one cache line bounce.

On a 256 thread system with a kernel compiled for 1024 threads, the time
to execute testcase in the "smp_call_function_many race" changelog was
reduced by about 30-40ms out of about 545 ms.

I decided to keep this as WARN because its now a buggy function, even
though the stack trace is of no value -- a simple printk would give us the
information needed.

6dc1989995 kernel/smp.c: fix smp_call_function_many() SMP race
I noticed a failure where we hit the following WARN_ON in
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt:

                if (!cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(cpu, data->cpumask))
                        continue;

                data->csd.func(data->csd.info);

                refs = atomic_dec_return(&data->refs);
                WARN_ON(refs < 0);      <-------------------------

We atomically tested and cleared our bit in the cpumask, and yet the
number of cpus left (ie refs) was 0.  How can this be?

It turns out commit 54fdade1c3
("generic-ipi: make struct call_function_data lockless") is at fault.  It
removes locking from smp_call_function_many and in doing so creates a
rather complicated race.

The problem comes about because:

 - The smp_call_function_many interrupt handler walks call_function.queue
   without any locking.
 - We reuse a percpu data structure in smp_call_function_many.
 - We do not wait for any RCU grace period before starting the next
   smp_call_function_many.

Imagine a scenario where CPU A does two smp_call_functions back to back,
and CPU B does an smp_call_function in between.  We concentrate on how CPU
C handles the calls:

CPU A            CPU B                  CPU C              CPU D

smp_call_function
                                        smp_call_function_interrupt
                                            walks
					call_function.queue sees
					data from CPU A on list

                 smp_call_function

                                        smp_call_function_interrupt
                                            walks

                                        call_function.queue sees
                                          (stale) CPU A on list
							   smp_call_function int
							   clears last ref on A
							   list_del_rcu, unlock
smp_call_function reuses
percpu *data A
                                         data->cpumask sees and
                                         clears bit in cpumask
                                         might be using old or new fn!
                                         decrements refs below 0

set data->refs (too late!)

The important thing to note is since the interrupt handler walks a
potentially stale call_function.queue without any locking, then another
cpu can view the percpu *data structure at any time, even when the owner
is in the process of initialising it.

The following test case hits the WARN_ON 100% of the time on my PowerPC
box (having 128 threads does help :)

#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/init.h>

#define ITERATIONS 100

	return 0;
}

I tried to fix it by ordering the read and the write of ->cpumask and
->refs.  In doing so I missed a critical case but Paul McKenney was able
to spot my bug thankfully :) To ensure we arent viewing previous
iterations the interrupt handler needs to read ->refs then ->cpumask then
->refs _again_.

Thanks to Milton Miller and Paul McKenney for helping to debug this issue.

713735b423 memcg: correctly order reading PCG_USED and pc->mem_cgroup
The placement of the read-side barrier is confused: the writer first
sets pc->mem_cgroup, then PCG_USED.  The read-side barrier has to be
between testing PCG_USED and reading pc->mem_cgroup.

move_account() for THP page is not supported.

This will cause account leak or -EBUSY issue at rmdir().

ca3e021417 memcg: fix USED bit handling at uncharge in THP
Now, under THP:

at charge:
  - PageCgroupUsed bit is set to all page_cgroup on a hugepage.
    ....set to 512 pages.
at uncharge
  - PageCgroupUsed bit is unset on the head page.

So, some pages will remain with "Used" bit.

This patch fixes that Used bit is set only to the head page.
Used bits for tail pages will be set at splitting if necessary.

This patch adds this lock order:
   compound_lock() -> page_cgroup_move_lock().

20d9600cb4 fs/direct-io.c: don't try to allocate more than BIO_MAX_PAGES in a bio
When using devices that support max_segments > BIO_MAX_PAGES (256), direct
IO tries to allocate a bio with more pages than allowed, which leads to an
oops in dio_bio_alloc().  Clamp the request to the supported maximum, and
change dio_bio_alloc() to reflect that bio_alloc() will always return a
bio when called with __GFP_WAIT and a valid number of vectors.

82478fb7bc mm: compaction: prevent division-by-zero during user-requested compaction
Up until 3e7d344 ("mm: vmscan: reclaim order-0 and use compaction instead
of lumpy reclaim"), compaction skipped calculating the fragmentation index
of a zone when compaction was explicitely requested through the procfs
knob.

However, when compaction_suitable was introduced, it did not come with an
extra check for order == -1, set on explicit compaction requests, and
passed this order on to the fragmentation index calculation, where it
overshifts the number of requested pages, leading to a division by zero.

This patch makes sure that order == -1 is recognized as the flag it is
rather than passing it along as valid order parameter.

abb65272a1 memblock: fix memblock_is_region_memory()
memblock_is_region_memory() uses reserved memblocks to search for the
given region, while it should use the memory memblocks.

I encountered the problem with OMAP's framebuffer ram allocation.
Normally the ram is allocated dynamically, and this function is not
called.  However, if we want to pass the framebuffer from the bootloader
to the kernel (to retain the boot image), this function is used to check
the validity of the kernel parameters for the framebuffer ram area.

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.

28e58ee8ce Fix broken "pipe: use event aware wakeups" optimization
Commit e462c448fd ("pipe: use event aware wakeups") optimized the pipe
event wakeup calls to avoid wakeups if the events do not match the
requested set.

However, the optimization was buggy, in that it didn't actually use the
correct sets for the events: when we make room for more data to be
written, the pipe poll() routine will return both the POLLOUT _and_
POLLWRNORM bits.  Similarly for read.

And most critically, when a pipe is released, that will potentially
result in POLLHUP|POLLERR (depending on whether it was the last reader
or writer), not just the regular POLLIN|POLLOUT.

This bug showed itself as a hung gnome-screensaver-dialog process, stuck
forever (or at least until it was poked by a signal or by being traced)
in a poll() system call.

d7b9935a34 i915: Fix i915 suspend delay
During system suspend, the "wait for ring buffer to empty" loop would
always time out after three seconds, because the faster cached ring
buffer head read would always return zero.  Force the slow-and-careful
PIO read on all but the first iterations of the loop to fix it.

This also removes the unused (and useless) 'actual_head' variable that
tried to approximate doing this, but did it incorrectly.

b23fffd778 ACPI / Battery: remove battery refresh on resume
This partially reverts commit da8aeb92d4
("ACPI / Battery: Update information on info notification and resume"),
which causes a hang on resume on at least some machines.

This bug was bisected on an ASUS EeePC 901, which hangs at resume time
if we do that "acpi_battery_refresh(battery)" in the battery resume
function.

Rafael suspects we'll still need to refresh the sysfs files upon resume,
but that that can be done from a PM notifier (that will run after
thawing user space).

76dcc26f1d cifs: mangle existing header for SMB_COM_NT_CANCEL
The NT_CANCEL command looks just like the original command, except for a
few small differences. The send_nt_cancel function however currently takes
a tcon, which we don't have in SendReceive and SendReceive2.

Instead of "respinning" the entire header for an NT_CANCEL, just mangle
the existing header by replacing just the fields we need. This means we
don't need a tcon and allows us to call it from other places.

fda3594362 [CIFS] cifs: reconnect unresponsive servers
If the server isn't responding to echoes, we don't want to leave tasks
hung waiting for it to reply. At that point, we'll want to reconnect
so that soft mounts can return an error to userspace quickly.

If the client hasn't received a reply after a specified number of echo
intervals, assume that the transport is down and attempt to reconnect
the socket.

The number of echo_intervals to wait before attempting to reconnect is
tunable via a module parameter. Setting it to 0, means that the client
will never attempt to reconnect. The default is 5.

2b84a36c55 cifs: allow for different handling of received response
In order to incorporate async requests, we need to allow for a more
general way to do things on receive, rather than just waking up a
process.

Turn the task pointer in the mid_q_entry into a callback function and a
generic data pointer. When a response comes in, or the socket is
reconnected, cifsd can call the callback function in order to wake up
the process.

The default is to just wake up the current process which should mean no
change in behavior for existing code.

Also, clean up the locking in cifs_reconnect. There doesn't seem to be
any need to hold both the srv_mutex and GlobalMid_Lock when walking the
list of mids.

We only want to force a reconnect to the server under very limited and
specific circumstances. Now that we have processes waiting indefinitely
for responses, we shouldn't reach this point unless a reconnect is
already in process. Thus, there's no reason to re-mark the server for
reconnect here.

0ade640e9c cifs: wait indefinitely for responses
The client should not be timing out on individual SMB requests. Too much
of the state between client and server is tied to the state of the
socket. If we time out requests and issue spurious disconnects then that
comprimises data integrity.

Instead of doing this complicated dance where we try to decide how long
to wait for a response for particular requests, have the client instead
wait indefinitely for a response. Also, use a TASK_KILLABLE sleep here
so that fatal signals will break out of this waiting.

Later patches will add support for detecting dead peers and forcing
reconnects based on that.

We sometimes need to map between the virtio device and
the given pci device. One such use is OS installer that
gets the boot pci device from BIOS and needs to
find the relevant block device. Since it can't,
installation fails.

Instead of creating a top-level devices/virtio-pci
directory, create each device under the corresponding
pci device node.  Symlinks to all virtio-pci
devices can be found under the pci driver link in
bus/pci/drivers/virtio-pci/devices, and all virtio
devices under drivers/bus/virtio/devices.

PROT_EXEC seems to be completely unnecessary (as the lguest binary
never executes there), and will allow it to work with SELinux (and
more importantly, PaX :-) as they can/do forbid writable and
executable mappings.

Also, map PROT_NONE guard pages at start and end of guest memory for extra
paranoia.

I changed the length check to addr + size > guest_limit because >= is wrong
(addr of 0, size of getpagesize() with a guest_limit of getpagesize() would
false positive).
