Darren Hart 84bc4af590 futex: Detect mismatched requeue targets
There is currently no check to ensure that userspace uses the same
futex requeue target (uaddr2) in futex_requeue() that the waiter used
in futex_wait_requeue_pi().  A mismatch here could very unexpected
results as the waiter assumes it either wakes on uaddr1 or uaddr2. We
could detect this on wakeup in the waiter, but the cleanup is more
intense after the improper requeue has occured.

This patch stores the waiter's expected requeue target in a new
requeue_pi_key pointer in the futex_q which futex_requeue() checks
prior to attempting to do a proxy lock acquistion or a requeue when
requeue_pi=1. If they don't match, return -EINVAL from futex_requeue,
aborting the requeue of any remaining waiters.

NeilBrown 449aad3e25 md: Use revalidate_disk to effect changes in size of device.
As revalidate_disk calls check_disk_size_change, it will cause
any capacity change of a gendisk to be propagated to the blockdev
inode.  So use that instead of mucking about with locks and
i_size_write.

Also add a call to revalidate_disk in do_md_run and a few other places
where the gendisk capacity is changed.

NeilBrown 64bd660b51 md: allow raid5_quiesce to work properly when reshape is happening.
The ->quiesce method is not supposed to stop resync/recovery/reshape,
just normal IO.
But in raid5 we don't have a way to know which stripes are being
used for normal IO and which for resync etc, so we need to wait for
all stripes to be idle to be sure that all writes have completed.

However reshape keeps at least some stripe busy for an extended period
of time, so a call to raid5_quiesce can block for several seconds
needlessly.
So arrange for reshape etc to pause briefly while raid5_quiesce is
trying to quiesce the array so that the active_stripes count can
drop to zero.

NeilBrown e516402c0d md/raid5: set reshape_position correctly when reshape starts.
As the internal reshape_progress counter is the main driver
for reshape, the fact that reshape_position sometimes starts with the

NeilBrown 70471dafe3 md: Handle growth of v1.x metadata correctly.
The v1.x metadata does not have a fixed size and can grow
when devices are added.
If it grows enough to require an extra sector of storage,
we need to update the 'sb_size' to match.

Without this, md can write out an incomplete superblock with a
bad checksum, which will be rejected when trying to re-assemble
the array.

NeilBrown 3a981b03f3 md: when a level change reduces the number of devices, remove the excess.
When an array is changed from RAID6 to RAID5, fewer drives are
needed.  So any device that is made superfluous by the level
conversion must be marked as not-active.
For the RAID6->RAID5 conversion, this will be a drive which only
has 'Q' blocks on it.

Andre Noll ac5e7113e7 md: Push down data integrity code to personalities.
This patch replaces md_integrity_check() by two new public functions:
md_integrity_register() and md_integrity_add_rdev() which are both
personality-independent.

md_integrity_register() is called from the ->run and ->hot_remove
methods of all personalities that support data integrity.  The
function iterates over the component devices of the array and
determines if all active devices are integrity capable and if their
profiles match. If this is the case, the common profile is registered
for the mddev via blk_integrity_register().

The second new function, md_integrity_add_rdev() is called from the
->hot_add_disk methods, i.e. whenever a new device is being added
to a raid array. If the new device does not support data integrity,
or has a profile different from the one already registered, data
integrity for the mddev is disabled.

For raid0 and linear, only the call to md_integrity_register() from
the ->run method is necessary.

Linus Torvalds 79896cf42f Make pci_claim_resource() use request_resource() rather than insert_resource()
This function has traditionally used "insert_resource()", because before
commit cebd78a8c5 ("Fix pci_claim_resource") it used to just insert the
resource into whatever root resource tree that was indicated by
"pcibios_select_root()".

So there Matthew fixed it to actually look up the proper parent
resource, which means that now it's actively wrong to then traverse the
resource tree any more: we already know exactly where the new resource
should go.

And when we then did commit a76117dfd6 ("x86: Use pci_claim_resource"),
which changed the x86 PCI code from the open-coded

	pr = pci_find_parent_resource(dev, r);
	if (!pr || request_resource(pr, r) < 0) {

to using

	if (pci_claim_resource(dev, idx) < 0) {

that "insert_resource()" now suddenly became a problem, and causes a
regression covered by

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13891

which this fixes.

Alan Jenkins 7334546a52 eeepc-laptop: fix hot-unplug on resume
OOPS on resume when the wireless adaptor is disabled during suspend was
introduced by "eeepc-laptop: read rfkill soft-blocked state on resume".

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference

Process s2disk
Tainted: G W
IP: klist_put

Call trace:
? klist_del
? device_del
? device_unregister
? pci_stop_dev
? pci_stop_bus
? pci_remove_device
? eeepc_rfkill_hotplug [eeepc_laptop]
? eeepc_hotk_resume [eeepc_laptop]
? acpi_device_resume
? device_resume
? hibernation_snapshot

It appears the PCI device is removed twice.  The eeepc_rfkill_hotplug()
call from the resume handler is racing against the call from the ACPI
notifier callback.  The ACPI notification is triggered by the resume
handler when it refreshes the value of CM_ASL_WLAN.

The fix is to serialize hotplug calls using a workqueue.

On some machines, a software-initiated SMI causes corruption unless the

done in GPE-related methods that are run via workqueues, so we can avoid
the known corruption cases by binding the workqueues to CPU 0.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 59fe4fe34d thinkpad-acpi: fix incorrect use of TPACPI_BRGHT_MODE_ECNVRAM
HBRV-based default selection of backlight control strategy didn't work
well, at least the X41 defines it but doesn't use it and I don't think
it will stop there.

Switch to a white/blacklist.  All models that have HBRV defined have
been included in the list, and initially all ATI GPUs will get
ECNVRAM, and the Intel GPUs will get UCMS_STEP.

Symptoms of incorrect backlight mode selection are:

1. Non-working backlight control through sysfs;

2. Backlight gets reset to the lowest level at every shutdown, reboot
   and when thinkpad-acpi gets unloaded;

This fixes a regression in 2.6.30, bugzilla #13826

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 1f6fc2de95 thinkpad-acpi: remove dock and bay subdrivers
The standard ACPI dock driver can handle the hotplug bays and docks of
the ThinkPads just fine (including batteries) as of 2.6.27, and the
code in thinkpad-acpi for the dock and bay subdrivers is currently
broken anyway...

Userspace needs some love to support the two-stage ejection nicely,
but it is simple enough to do through udev rules (you don't even need
HAL) so this wouldn't justify fixing the dock and bay subdrivers,
either.

That leaves warm-swap bays (_EJ3) support for thinkpad-acpi, as well
as support for the weird dock of the model 570, but since such support
has never left the "experimental" stage, it is also not a strong
enough reason to find a way to fix this code.

Users of ThinkPads with warm-swap bays are urged to request that _EJ3
support be added to the regular ACPI dock driver, if such feature is
indeed useful for them.

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh 550e7fd8af thinkpad-acpi: disable broken bay and dock subdrivers
Currently, the ThinkPad-ACPI bay and dock drivers are completely
broken, and cause a NULL pointer derreference in kernel mode (and,
therefore, an OOPS) when they try to issue events (i.e. on dock,
undock, bay ejection, etc).

OTOH, the standard ACPI dock driver can handle the hotplug bays and
docks of the ThinkPads just fine (including batteries) as of 2.6.27.
In fact, it does a much better job of it than thinkpad-acpi ever did.

It is just not worth the hassle to find a way to fix this crap without
breaking the (deprecated) thinkpad-acpi dock/bay ABI.  This is old,
deprecated code that sees little testing or use.

As a quick fix suitable for -stable backports, mark the thinkpad-acpi
bay and dock subdrivers as BROKEN in Kconfig.  The dead code will be
removed by a later patch.

This fixes bugzilla #13669, and should be applied to 2.6.27 and later.

Linus Torvalds 0083fc2c50 do_sigaltstack: avoid copying 'stack_t' as a structure to user space
Ulrich Drepper correctly points out that there is generally padding in
the structure on 64-bit hosts, and that copying the structure from
kernel to user space can leak information from the kernel stack in those
padding bytes.

Avoid the whole issue by just copying the three members one by one
instead, which also means that the function also can avoid the need for
a stack frame.  This also happens to match how we copy the new structure
from user space, so it all even makes sense.

[ The obvious solution of adding a memset() generates horrid code, gcc
  does really stupid things. ]

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 6de7e356fa lib/scatterlist: add a flags to signalize mapping direction
sg_miter_start() is currently unaware of the direction of the copy
process (to or from the scatter list). It is important to know the
direction because the page has to be flushed in case the data written
is seen on a different mapping in user land on cache incoherent
architectures.

Julia Lawall f065fabc86 ALSA: sound/aoa: Add kmalloc NULL tests
Check that the result of kzalloc is not NULL before a dereference.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:

Takashi Iwai aa563af763 ALSA: hda - Increase PCM stream name buf in patch_realtek.c
The name buf with size 16 is too short for some codec names, e.g.
truncated like "ALC861-VD Analo".  Now the size is doubled.
