Impact: Prevent kernel crash with posix timer clockid CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW commit 2d42244a (clocksource: introduce CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW) introduced a new clockid, which is only available to read out the raw not NTP adjusted system time. The above commit did not prevent that a posix timer can be created with that clockid. The timer_create() syscall succeeds and initializes the timer to a non existing hrtimer base. When the timer is deleted either by timer_delete() or by the exit() cleanup the kernel crashes. Prevent the creation of timers for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW by setting the posix clock function to no_timer_create which returns an error code. Reported-and-tested-by:

Impact: fix deadlock This is in response to the following bug report: Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100 Subject : resume (S2R) broken by Intel microcode module, on A110L Submitter : Andreas Mohr <andi@lisas.de> Date : 2008-11-25 08:48 (19 days old) Handled-By : Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> [ The deadlock scenario has been discovered by Andreas Mohr ] I think I might have a logical explanation why the system: (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12100) might hang upon resuming, OTOH it should have likely hanged each and every time. (1) possible deadlock in microcode_resume_cpu() if either 'if' section is taken; (2) now, I don't see it in spec. and can't experimentally verify it (newer ucodes don't seem to be available for my Core2duo)... but logically-wise, I'd think that when read upon resuming, the 'microcode revision' (MSR 0x8B) should be back to its original one (we need to reload ucode anyway so it doesn't seem logical if a cpu doesn't drop the version)... if so, the comparison with memcmp() for the full 'struct cpu_signature' is wrong... and that's how one of the aforementioned 'if' sections might have been triggered - leading to a deadlock. Obviously, in my tests I simulated loading/resuming with the ucode of the same version (just to see that the file is loaded/re-loaded upon resuming) so this issue has never popped up. I'd appreciate if someone with an appropriate system might give a try to the 2nd patch (titled "fix a comparison && deadlock..."). In any case, the deadlock situation is a must-have fix. Reported-by:

The previous commit re-enabled hp_nid setup for IDT92HD73*, but it's unneeded indeed for Dell laptops that have multiple headphones. Setting the extra hp_nid results in a non-working "Headpohne" mixer control. Thus hp_nid should be 0 for these dell models. Also, the automatic addition of hp_nid should check whether it's a dual-HP model or not. For dual-HPs, the pins are already checked by the early workaround. Signed-off-by:

Fix problem that deleting multiple logical drives could cause a panic. It fixes a panic which can be easily reproduced in the following way: Just create several "arrays," each with multiple logical drives via hpacucli, then delete the first array, and it will blow up in deregister_disk(), in the call to get_host() when it tries to dig the hba pointer out of a NULL queue pointer. The problem has been present since my code to make rebuild_lun_table behave better went in. Signed-off-by:

On PAE systems, GEM allocates pages using shmem, and passes these pages to be bound into AGP, however the AGP interfaces + the x86 set_memory interfaces all take unsigned long not dma_addr_t. The initial fix for this was a mess, so we need to do this correctly for 2.6.29. Signed-off-by:

These buffers don't have active rendering still occurring to them, they just need either a flush to be emitted or a retire_requests to occur so that we notice they're done. Return unbusy so that one of the two occurs. The two expected consumers of this interface (OpenGL and libdrm_intel BO cache) both want this behavior. Signed-off-by:

When we read the write-intent-bitmap off the device, we currently read a whole number of pages. When PAGE_SIZE is 4K, this works due to the alignment we enforce on the superblock and bitmap. When PAGE_SIZE is 64K, this case read past the end-of-device which causes an error. When we write the superblock, we ensure to clip the last page to just be the required size. Copy that code into the read path to just read the required number of sectors. Signed-off-by:

I happened to notice that the ibmphp hotplug driver does something rather silly in its init routine. It purposely calls module_put so as to underflow its module ref count to avoid being removed from the kernel. This is bad practice, and wrong, since it provides a window for subsequent module_gets to reset the refcount to zero, allowing an unload to race in and cause all sorts of mysterious panics. If the module is unsafe to load, simply omitting the module_exit parameter is sufficient to prevent the kernel from allowing the unload. Acked-by:
