dmi: fix date handling in dmi_get_year()
Year parsing in dmi_get_year() had the following two bugs.
* "00" is treated as invalid instead of 2000 because zero return from
simple_strtoul() is treated as error.
* "0N" where N >= 8 is treated as invalid of 200N because the leading
0 is considered to specify octal.
Fix the above two bugs by using endptr to detect invalid number and
forcing decimal.

libata: unbreak TPM filtering by reorganizing ata_scsi_pass_thru()
ata_scsi_pass_thru() was checking for input sanity and disallowed
commands while initializaing qc from scmd. TPM filtering was added
right after protocol check at which point tf wasn't initialized
properly. This means that TPM filtering has never really worked.
This patch fixes the bug by reorganizing ata_scsi_pass_thru() such
that qc is fully initialized before checking for invalid conditions
which is way less error prone.

sata_sis: convert to slave_link
During introduction of slave_link, sata_sis slipped through the crack
and left with ad-hoc merged SCR access. As SCR status was shared for
both the master and slave devices, when only one of the device is
online, libata EH would think both are online but would only get valid
device signature for the actually present one, which in turn trigger
the probing safety net mechanism and make EH retry causing large delay
during boot. This patch converts sata_sis to slave_link mechanism.

sata_sil24: always set protocol override for non-ATAPI data commands
The sil24 hardware has a built-in list of commands and associated protocols
that gets used by default to decide how to handle a given command. However,
if the command is not known to the controller then it presumably assumes it to
be a non-data command which then causes protocol mismatch errors if the device
ends up requesting data transfer. The new DATA SET MANAGEMENT - Trim command
causes this issue since it's a DMA data-out command.
Since we should always know best what protocol the command should be using,
let's just set the override flag to inform the controller what protocol to use
for all non-ATAPI commands with data transfer.

libata: add command name parsing for error output
This patch improve libata's output for error/notification messages
to allow easier comprehension and debugging:
When ATAPI commands issued through the SCSI layer fail, use SCSI
functions to print the CDB in human-readable form instead of just
dumping out the CDB in hex.
Print out the name of the failed command (as defined by the ATA
specification) in error handling output along with the raw register
contents.
When reporting status of ACPI taskfile commands executed on resume,
also output the names of the commands being executed (or not) in
readable form.
Since the extra data for printing command names increases kernel
size slightly, a config option has been added to allow disabling
command name output (as well as some of the error register parsing)
for those highly sensitive to kernel text size.

ata_piix: parallel scanning on PATA needs an extra locking
Commit log for commit
517d3cc15b36392e518abab6bacbb72089658313
("[libata] ata_piix: Enable parallel scan") says:
This patch turns on parallel scanning for the ata_piix driver.
This driver is used on most netbooks (no AHCI for cheap storage it seems).
The scan is the dominating time factor in the kernel boot for these
devices; with this flag it gets cut in half for the device I used
for testing (eeepc).
Alan took a look at the driver source and concluded that it ought to be safe
to do for this driver. Alan has also checked with the hardware team.
and it is all true but once we put all things together additional
constraints for PATA controllers show up (some hardware registers
have per-host not per-port atomicity) and we risk misprogramming
the controller.
I used the following test to check whether the issue is real:
@@ -736,8 +736,20 @@ static void piix_set_piomode(struct ata_
(timings[pio][1] << 8);
}
pci_write_config_word(dev, master_port, master_data);
- if (is_slave)
+ if (is_slave) {
+ if (ap->port_no == 0) {
+ u8 tmp = slave_data;
+
+ while (slave_data == tmp) {
+ pci_read_config_byte(dev, slave_port, &tmp);
+ msleep(50);
+ }
+
+ dev_printk(KERN_ERR, &dev->dev, "PATA parallel scan "
+ "race detected\n");
+ }
pci_write_config_byte(dev, slave_port, slave_data);
+ }
/* Ensure the UDMA bit is off - it will be turned back on if
UDMA is selected */
and it indeed triggered the error message.
Lets fix all such races by adding an extra locking to ->set_piomode
and ->set_dmamode methods for PATA controllers.
[ Alan: would be better to take the host lock in libata-core for these
cases so that we fix all the adapters in one swoop. "Looks fine as a
temproary quickfix tho" ]

thermal_sys: check get_temp return value
The return value of the get_temp function is not checked when doing a
thermal zone update. This may lead to a critical shutdown if get_temp
fails and the content of the temp variable is incorrectly set higher than
the critical trip point.
This has been observed on a system with incorrect ACPI implementation
where the corresponding methods were not serialized and therefore
sometimes triggered ACPI errors (AE_ALREADY_EXISTS). The following
critical shutdowns indicated a temperature of 2097 C, which was obviously
wrong.
The patch adds a return value check that jumps over all trip point
evaluations printing a warning if get_temp fails. The trip points are
evaluated again on the next polling interval with successful get_temp

clone(): fix race between copy_process() and de_thread()
Spotted by Hiroshi Shimamoto who also provided the test-case below.

break;
if (!pid) {

}
do {
ret = waitpid(pid, &status, 0);
} while (ret == -1 && errno == EINTR);
}
return 0;
}
quickly creates an unkillable task.
If copy_process(CLONE_THREAD) races with de_thread()
copy_signal()->atomic(signal->count) breaks the signal->notify_count
logic, and the execing thread can hang forever in kernel space.
Change copy_process() to increment count/live only when we know for sure
we can't fail. In this case the forked thread will take care of its
reference to signal correctly.
If copy_process() fails, check CLONE_THREAD flag. If it it set - do
nothing, the counters were not changed and current belongs to the same
thread group. If it is not set, ->signal must be released in any case
(and ->count must be == 1), the forked child is the only thread in the
thread group.
We need more cleanups here, in particular signal->count should not be used
by de_thread/__exit_signal at all. This patch only fixes the bug.

mm: fix for infinite churning of mlocked pages
An mlocked page might lose the isolatation race. This causes the page to
clear PG_mlocked while it remains in a VM_LOCKED vma. This means it can
be put onto the [in]active list. We can rescue it by using try_to_unmap()
in shrink_page_list().
But now, As Wu Fengguang pointed out, vmscan has a bug. If the page has
PG_referenced, it can't reach try_to_unmap() in shrink_page_list() but is
put into the active list. If the page is referenced repeatedly, it can
remain on the [in]active list without being moving to the unevictable
list.
This patch fixes it.

flex_array: convert element_nr formals to unsigned
It's problematic to allow signed element_nr's or total's to be passed as
part of the flex array API.
flex_array_alloc() allows total_nr_elements to be set to a negative
quantity, which is obviously erroneous.
flex_array_get() and flex_array_put() allows negative array indices in
dereferencing an array part, which could address memory mapped before
struct flex_array.
The fix is to convert all existing element_nr formals to be qualified as
unsigned. Existing checks to compare it to total_nr_elements or the max
array size based on element_size need not be changed.

flex_array: fix get function for elements in base starting at non-zero
If all array elements fit into the base structure and data is copied using
flex_array_put() starting at a non-zero index, flex_array_get() will fail
to return the data.
This fixes the bug by only checking for NULL parts when all elements do
not fit in the base structure when flex_array_get() is used. Otherwise,
fa_element_to_part_nr() will always be 0 since there are no parts
structures needed and such element may never have been put. Thus, it will
remain NULL due to the kzalloc() of the base.
Additionally, flex_array_put() now only checks for a NULL part when all
elements do not fit in the base structure. This is otherwise unnecessary
since the base structure is guaranteed to exist (or we would have already
hit a NULL pointer).

| x86: don't call read_apic_id if !cpu_has_apic
The problem is that on vSMP systems the CPUID derived
initial-APICIDs are overlapping - so we need to fall
back on hard_smp_processor_id() which reads the local
APIC.
Both come from the hardware (influenced by firmware
though) so it's a tough call which one to trust.
Doing the quirk expresses the vSMP property properly
and also does not affect other systems, so we go for
this solution instead of a revert.

sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses.
When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses. But with kgdb, kernel
address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
crap.
So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
that actually exists.
In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
into the kernel image. And in order to make that less expensive we
make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
physical address space. We can do this because bit 41 indicates
"I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.
The result of this is that:
1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size
2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap
We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.
If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
inside of the cpu. So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.
To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set. We
could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
unnecessary extra memory reference.
On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
in the TLB miss path.
