      ftrace: fix current_tracer error return · 60063a66
      Steven Rostedt authored 
      The commit (in linux-tip) c2931e05


 ( ftrace: return an error when setting a nonexistent tracer )
added useful code that would error when a bad tracer was written into
the current_tracer file.

But this had a bug if the amount written was more than the amount read by
that code. The first iteration would set the tracer correctly, but since
it did not consume the rest of what was written (usually whitespace), the
userspace utility would continue to write what was not consumed. This
second iteration would fail to find a tracer and return -EINVAL. Funny
thing is that the tracer would have already been set.

This patch just consumes all the data that is written to the file.

      KVM: Fix guest shared interrupt with in-kernel irqchip · 5550af4d
      Sheng Yang authored 
      

Every call of kvm_set_irq() should offer an irq_source_id, which is
allocated by kvm_request_irq_source_id(). Based on irq_source_id, we
identify the irq source and implement logical OR for shared level
interrupts.

The allocated irq_source_id can be freed by kvm_free_irq_source_id().

Currently, we support at most sizeof(unsigned long) different irq sources.

[Amit: - rebase to kvm.git HEAD
       - move definition of KVM_USERSPACE_IRQ_SOURCE_ID to common file
       - move kvm_request_irq_source_id to the update_irq ioctl]

      lockdep: fix irqs on/off ip tracing · 6afe40b4
      Heiko Carstens authored 
      Impact: fix lockdep lock-api-caller output when irqsoff tracing is enabled

81d68a96

 "ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings" added wrappers around
trace_hardirqs_on/off_caller. However these functions use
__builtin_return_address(0) to figure out which function actually disabled
or enabled irqs. The result is that we save the ips of trace_hardirqs_on/off
instead of the real caller. Not very helpful.

However since the patch from Steven the ip already gets passed. So use that
and get rid of __builtin_return_address(0) in these two functions.

      [S390] No more 4kb stacks. · 7f5a8ba6
      Heiko Carstens authored 
      

We got a stack overflow with a small stack configuration on a 32 bit
system. It just looks like as 4kb isn't enough and too dangerous.
So lets get rid of 4kb stacks on 32 bit.

But one thing I completely dislike about the call trace below is that
just for debugging or tracing purposes sprintf gets called (cio_start_key):

	/* process condition code */
	sprintf(dbf_txt, "ccode:%d", ccode);
	CIO_TRACE_EVENT(4, dbf_txt);

But maybe its just me who thinks that this could be done better.

Use sysdev_class_create_file() to create create sysdev class attributes
instead of sysfs_create_file(). Using sysfs_create_file() wasn't a very
good idea since the show and store functions have a different amount of
parameters for sysfs files and sysdev class files.
In particular the pointer to the buffer is the last argument and
therefore accesses to random memory regions happened.
Still worked surprisingly well until we got a kernel panic.

      [S390] pgtables: Fix race in enable_sie vs. page table ops · 250cf776
      Christian Borntraeger authored 
      

The current enable_sie code sets the mm->context.pgstes bit to tell
dup_mm that the new mm should have extended page tables. This bit is also
used by the s390 specific page table primitives to decide about the page
table layout - which means context.pgstes has two meanings. This can cause
any kind of bugs. For example  - e.g. shrink_zone can call
ptep_clear_flush_young while enable_sie is running. ptep_clear_flush_young
will test for context.pgstes. Since enable_sie changed that value of the old
struct mm without changing the page table layout ptep_clear_flush_young will
do the wrong thing.
The solution is to split pgstes into two bits
- one for the allocation
- one for the current state
