procfs: do not confuse jiffies with cputime64_t
Commit
2a95ea6c0d129b4 ("procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time

and cputime use different units.
This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making
the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong.
Instead of converting the usec value returned by
get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function
usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.

mm/mempolicy.c: refix mbind_range() vma issue
commit
8aacc9f550 ("mm/mempolicy.c: fix pgoff in mbind vma merge") is the
slightly incorrect fix.
Why? Think following case.
1. map 4 pages of a file at offset 0
[0123]
2. map 2 pages just after the first mapping of the same file but with
page offset 2
[0123][23]
3. mbind() 2 pages from the first mapping at offset 2.
mbind_range() should treat new vma is,
[0123][23]
|23|
mbind vma
but it does
[0123][23]
|01|
mbind vma
Oops. then, it makes wrong vma merge and splitting ([01][0123] or similar).
This patch fixes it.

block: fix blk_queue_end_tag()
Commit
5e081591 "block: warn if tag is greater than real_max_depth"
cleaned up blk_queue_end_tag() to warn when the tag is truly invalid
(greater than real_max_depth). However, it changed behavior in the tag <
max_depth case to not end the request. Leading to triggering of
BUG_ON(blk_queued_rq(rq)) in the request completion path:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=
132204370518629&w=2
In order to allow blk_queue_resize_tags() to shrink the tag space
blk_queue_end_tag() must always complete tags with a value less than
real_max_depth regardless of the current max_depth. The comment about
"handling the shrink case" seems to be what prompted changes in this
space, so remove it and BUG on all invalid tags (made even simpler by
Matthew's suggestion to use an unsigned compare).

watchdog: iTCO_wdt.c - problems with newer hardware due to SMI clearing (part 2)
Redhat Bugzilla: Bug 727875 - TCO_EN bit is disabled by TCO driver
The previous patch breaks reset watchdog behaviour on the older hardware.
It is therefor better to make sure that the behaviour for older hardware (<=ICH5 or
6300ESB) is preserved and that the behaviour for newer hardware is changed.
We therefor use the iTCO_version to see if we need the clearing of the SMI_TCO_EN
bit in the SMI_EN register.
So the new behaviour becomes:
turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=0 -> Do not turn off SMI clearing watchdog.
turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=1 -> Turn off SMI clearing watchdog when iTCO_version=1
(ICHO till ICH5 + 6300ESB only)
turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=2 -> Turn off SMI clearing watchdog.

vfs: fix handling of lock allocation failure in lease-break case
Bruce Fields notes that commit
778fc546f749 ("locks: fix tracking of
inprogress lease breaks") introduced a possible error pointer
dereference on failure to allocate memory. locks_conflict() will
dereference the passed-in new lease lock structure that may be an error pointer.
This means an open (without O_NONBLOCK set) on a file with a lease
applied (generally only done when Samba or nfsd (with v4) is running)
could crash if a kmalloc() fails.
So instead of playing games with IS_ERROR() all over the place, just
check the allocation failure early. That makes the code more
straightforward, and avoids this possible bad pointer dereference.

KVM: Don't automatically expose the TSC deadline timer in cpuid
Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set
unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants.
This is broken in several ways:
- if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC
deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break
- live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline
timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet;
breaking it
- guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail.
Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace.
Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee
will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.
Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

KVM: Device assignment permission checks
Only allow KVM device assignment to attach to devices which:
- Are not bridges
- Have BAR resources (assume others are special devices)
- The user has permissions to use
Assigning a bridge is a configuration error, it's not supported, and
typically doesn't result in the behavior the user is expecting anyway.
Devices without BAR resources are typically chipset components that
also don't have host drivers. We don't want users to hold such devices
captive or cause system problems by fencing them off into an iommu
domain. We determine "permission to use" by testing whether the user
has access to the PCI sysfs resource files. By default a normal user
will not have access to these files, so it provides a good indication
that an administration agent has granted the user access to the device.

xfs: log all dirty inodes in xfs_fs_sync_fs
Since Linux 2.6.36 the writeback code has introduces various measures for
live lock prevention during sync(). Unfortunately some of these are
actively harmful for the XFS model, where the inode gets marked dirty for
metadata from the data I/O handler.
The older_than_this checks that are now more strictly enforced since
writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback
by only calling into __writeback_inodes_sb and thus only sampling the
current cut off time once. But on a slow enough devices the previous
asynchronous sync pass might not have fully completed yet, and thus XFS
might mark metadata dirty only after that sampling of the cut off time for
the blocking pass already happened. I have not myself reproduced this
myself on a real system, but by introducing artificial delay into the
XFS I/O completion workqueues it can be reproduced easily.
Fix this by iterating over all XFS inodes in ->sync_fs and log all that
are dirty. This might log inode that only got redirtied after the
previous pass, but given how cheap delayed logging of inodes is it
isn't a major concern for performance.

xfs: log the inode in ->write_inode calls for kupdate
If the writeback code writes back an inode because it has expired we currently
use the non-blockin ->write_inode path. This means any inode that is pinned
is skipped. With delayed logging and a workload that has very little log
traffic otherwise it is very likely that an inode that gets constantly
written to is always pinned, and thus we keep refusing to write it. The VM
writeback code at that point redirties it and doesn't try to write it again
for another 30 seconds. This means under certain scenarious time based
metadata writeback never happens.
Fix this by calling into xfs_log_inode for kupdate in addition to data
integrity syncs, and thus transfer the inode to the log ASAP.

When writing to an array that is undergoing recovery (a spare

write completes.
For bits covering areas that have not been recovered yet this is not a
problem as the recovery will clear the bits. However bits set in
already-recovered region will stay set and never be cleared.
This doesn't risk data integrity. The only negatives are:
- next time there is a crash, more resyncing than necessary will
be done.
- the bitmap doesn't look clean, which is confusing.
While an array is recovering we don't want to update the
'events_cleared' setting in the bitmap but we do still want to clear
bits that have very recently been set - providing they were written to
the recovering device.
So split those two needs - which previously both depended on 'success'
and always clear the bit of the write went to all devices.

md: don't give up looking for spares on first failure-to-add
Before performing a recovery we try to remove any spares that
might not be working, then add any that might have become relevant.
Currently we abort on the first spare that cannot be added.
This is a false optimisation.
It is conceivable that - depending on rules in the personality - a
subsequent spare might be accepted.
Also the loop does other things like count the available spares and
reset the 'recovery_offset' value.
If we abort early these might not happen properly.
So remove the early abort.
In particular if you have an array what is undergoing recovery and
which has extra spares, then the recovery may not restart after as
reboot as the could of 'spares' might end up as zero.

After that commit, metadata if not written to devices until they
have been fully integrated into the array as determined by
saved_raid_disk. That patch arranged to clear that field after
a recovery completed.
However for linear arrays, there is no recovery - the integration is

sparc64: Fix MSIQ HV call ordering in pci_sun4v_msiq_build_irq().
This silently was working for many years and stopped working on
Niagara-T3 machines.
We need to set the MSIQ to VALID before we can set it's state to IDLE.
On Niagara-T3, setting the state to IDLE first was causing HV_EINVAL
errors. The hypervisor documentation says, rather ambiguously, that
the MSIQ must be "initialized" before one can set the state.
I previously understood this to mean merely that a successful setconf()
operation has been performed on the MSIQ, which we have done at this
point. But it seems to also mean that it has been set VALID too.

VFS: Fix race between CPU hotplug and lglocks
Currently, the *_global_[un]lock_online() routines are not at all synchronized
with CPU hotplug. Soft-lockups detected as a consequence of this race was
reported earlier at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/24/185. (Thanks to Cong Meng
for finding out that the root-cause of this issue is the race condition
between br_write_[un]lock() and CPU hotplug, which results in the lock states
getting messed up).
Fixing this race by just adding {get,put}_online_cpus() at appropriate places
in *_global_[un]lock_online() is not a good option, because, then suddenly
br_write_[un]lock() would become blocking, whereas they have been kept as
non-blocking all this time, and we would want to keep them that way.
So, overall, we want to ensure 3 things:
1. br_write_lock() and br_write_unlock() must remain as non-blocking.
2. The corresponding lock and unlock of the per-cpu spinlocks must not happen
for different sets of CPUs.
3. Either prevent any new CPU online operation in between this lock-unlock, or
ensure that the newly onlined CPU does not proceed with its corresponding
per-cpu spinlock unlocked.
To achieve all this:
(a) We introduce a new spinlock that is taken by the *_global_lock_online()
routine and released by the *_global_unlock_online() routine.
(b) We register a callback for CPU hotplug notifications, and this callback
takes the same spinlock as above.
(c) We maintain a bitmap which is close to the cpu_online_mask, and once it is
initialized in the lock_init() code, all future updates to it are done in
the callback, under the above spinlock.
(d) The above bitmap is used (instead of cpu_online_mask) while locking and
unlocking the per-cpu locks.
The callback takes the spinlock upon the CPU_UP_PREPARE event. So, if the
br_write_lock-unlock sequence is in progress, the callback keeps spinning,
thus preventing the CPU online operation till the lock-unlock sequence is
complete. This takes care of requirement (3).
The bitmap that we maintain remains unmodified throughout the lock-unlock
sequence, since all updates to it are managed by the callback, which takes
the same spinlock as the one taken by the lock code and released only by the
unlock routine. Combining this with (d) above, satisfies requirement (2).
Overall, since we use a spinlock (mentioned in (a)) to prevent CPU hotplug
operations from racing with br_write_lock-unlock, requirement (1) is also
taken care of.
By the way, it is to be noted that a CPU offline operation can actually run
in parallel with our lock-unlock sequence, because our callback doesn't react
to notifications earlier than CPU_DEAD (in order to maintain our bitmap
properly). And this means, since we use our own bitmap (which is stale, on
purpose) during the lock-unlock sequence, we could end up unlocking the
per-cpu lock of an offline CPU (because we had locked it earlier, when the
CPU was online), in order to satisfy requirement (2). But this is harmless,
though it looks a bit awkward.

3fb72f1e6e6165c5f495e8dc11c5bbd14c73385c
makes IP-Config wait for carrier on at least one network device.
Before waiting (predefined value 120s), check that at least one device
was successfully brought up. Otherwise (e.g. buggy bootloader
which does not set the MAC address) there is no point in waiting
for carrier.

sctp: Do not account for sizeof(struct sk_buff) in estimated rwnd
When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a
full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This
quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being
sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse
performance.
The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory
pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational
because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk
delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket
buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already
accounted for.
When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this
behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd
overusage in combination with small DATA chunks.
Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed,
the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits
are increased.
The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf
supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option
was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on
the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for
sk_(r|w)mem.

binary_sysctl(): fix memory leak
binary_sysctl() calls sysctl_getname() which allocates from names_cache
slab usin __getname()
The matching function to free the name is __putname(), and not putname()
which should be used only to match getname() allocations.
This is because when auditing is enabled, putname() calls audit_putname
*instead* (not in addition) to __putname(). Then, if a syscall is in
progress, audit_putname does not release the name - instead, it expects
the name to get released when the syscall completes, but that will happen
only if audit_getname() was called previously, i.e. if the name was
allocated with getname() rather than the naked __getname(). So,
__getname() followed by putname() ends up leaking memory.

ipmi_watchdog: restore settings when BMC reset
If the BMC gets reset, it will return 0x80 response errors.

In this case, it is probably a good idea to restore the IPMI settings.
