      hwmon: (emc2103) Clamp limits instead of bailing out · f6c2dd20
      Guenter Roeck authored 
      

It is customary to clamp limits instead of bailing out with an error
if a configured limit is out of the range supported by the driver.
This simplifies limit configuration, since the user will not typically
know chip and/or driver specific limits.

      workqueue: zero cpumask of wq_numa_possible_cpumask on init · 5a6024f1

When hot-adding and onlining CPU, kernel panic occurs, showing following
call trace.

In my investigation, I found the root cause is wq_numa_possible_cpumask.
All entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask is allocated by
alloc_cpumask_var_node(). And these entries are used without initializing.
So these entries have wrong value.

When hot-adding and onlining CPU, wq_update_unbound_numa() is called.
wq_update_unbound_numa() calls alloc_unbound_pwq(). And alloc_unbound_pwq()
calls get_unbound_pool(). In get_unbound_pool(), worker_pool->node is set
as follow:

3592         /* if cpumask is contained inside a NUMA node, we belong to that node */
3593         if (wq_numa_enabled) {
3594                 for_each_node(node) {
3595                         if (cpumask_subset(pool->attrs->cpumask,
3596                                            wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node])) {
3597                                 pool->node = node;
3598                                 break;
3599                         }
3600                 }
3601         }

But wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node] does not have correct cpumask. So, wrong
node is selected. As a result, kernel panic occurs.

By this patch, all entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask are allocated by
zalloc_cpumask_var_node to initialize them. And the panic disappeared.

      hwmon: (adm1031) Fix writes to limit registers · 145e74a4
      Guenter Roeck authored 
      

Upper limit for write operations to temperature limit registers
was clamped to a fractional value. However, limit registers do
not support fractional values. As a result, upper limits of 127.5
degrees C or higher resulted in a rounded limit of 128 degrees C.
Since limit registers are signed, this was stored as -128 degrees C.
Clamp limits to (-55, +127) degrees C to solve the problem.

Value on writes to auto_temp[12]_min and auto_temp[12]_max were not
clamped at all, but masked. As a result, out-of-range writes resulted
in a more or less arbitrary limit. Clamp those attributes to (0, 127)
degrees C for more predictable results.
