random: simplify and rename credit_entropy_store
credit_entropy_bits() does:
spin_lock_irqsave(&r->lock, flags);
...
if (r->entropy_count > r->poolinfo->POOLBITS)
r->entropy_count = r->poolinfo->POOLBITS;
so there is a time window in which this BUG_ON():
static size_t account(struct entropy_store *r, size_t nbytes, int min,
int reserved)
{
unsigned long flags;
BUG_ON(r->entropy_count > r->poolinfo->POOLBITS);
/* Hold lock while accounting */
spin_lock_irqsave(&r->lock, flags);
can trigger.
We could fix this by moving the assertion inside the lock, but it seems
safer and saner to revert to the old behaviour wherein
entropy_store.entropy_count at no time exceeds
entropy_store.poolinfo->POOLBITS.

Make PM_QOS and CPU_IDLE play nicer when run with the RT-Preempt kernel.
The purpose of the patch is to remove the spin_lock around the read in the
function pm_qos_requirement - since spinlocks can sleep in -rt and this
function is called from idle.
CPU_IDLE polls the target_value's of some of the pm_qos parameters from
the idle loop causing sleeping locking warnings. Changing the
target_value to an atomic avoids this issue.
Remove the spinlock in pm_qos_requirement by making target_value an atomic
type.

Update rtc-cmos shutdown handling to leave RTC alarms active, resolving
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11411 on several boards. There
are still some systems where the ACPI event handling doesn't cooperate.
(Possibly related to bugid 11312, reporting the spontaneous disabling of
RTC events.)
Bug 11411 reported that changes to work around some ACPI event issues
broke wake-from-S5 handling, as used for DVR applications. (They like to
power off, then wake later to record programs.)

I got this patch through Red Hat's bugzilla from the bug submitter and
patch creator. I have just fixed it up so it applies without fuzz to
upstream kernels.
Original patch and description from Shyam kumar Iyer:
The issue [ibft module not displaying targets with short names] is because
of an offset calculatation error in the iscsi_ibft.c code. Due to this
error directory structure for the target in /sys/firmware/ibft does not
get created and so the initiator is unable to connect to the target.
Note that this bug surfaced only with an name that had a short section at
the end. eg: "iqn.1984-05.com.dell:dell". It did not surface when the
iqn's had a longer section at the end. eg:
"iqn.2001-04.com.example:storage.disk2.sys1.xyz"
So, the eot_offset was calculated such that an extra 48 bytes i.e. the
size of the ibft_header which has already been accounted was subtracted
twice.
This was not evident with longer iqn names because they would overshoot
the total ibft length more than 48 bytes and thus would escape the bug.

commit 945185a69d ("rtc: rtc_time_to_tm: use
unsigned arithmetic") changed the some types in rtc_time_to_tm() to
unsigned:
void rtc_time_to_tm(unsigned long time, struct rtc_time *tm)
{
- register int days, month, year;
+ unsigned int days, month, year;
This doesn't work for all cases, because days is checked for < 0 later
on:
if (days < 0) {
year -= 1;
days += 365 + LEAP_YEAR(year);
}
I think the correct fix would be to keep days signed and do an appropriate
cast later on.

Quicklists store pages for each CPU as caches. (Each CPU can cache
node_free_pages/16 pages)
It is used for page table cache. exit() will increase the cache size,
while fork() consumes it.
So for example if an apache-style application runs (one parent and many
child model), one CPU process will fork() while another CPU will process
the middleware work and exit().
At that time, the CPU on which the parent runs doesn't have page table
cache at all. Others (on which children runs) have maximum caches.
QList_max = (#ofCPUs - 1) x Free / 16
=> QList_max / (Free + QList_max) = (#ofCPUs - 1) / (16 + #ofCPUs - 1)
So, How much quicklist memory is used in the maximum case?
This is proposional to # of CPUs because the limit of per cpu quicklist
cache doesn't see the number of cpus.
Above calculation mean
Number of CPUs per node 2 4 8 16
============================== ====================
QList_max / (Free + QList_max) 5.8% 16% 30% 48%
Wow! Quicklist can spend about 50% memory at worst case.

When above program which does task migration runs, my 8GB box spends
800MB of memory for quicklist. This is not memory leak but doesn't seem
good.
% cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 7701568 kB
MemFree: 4724672 kB
(snip)
Quicklists: 844800 kB
because
- My machine spec is
number of numa node: 2
number of cpus: 8 (4CPU x2 node)
total mem: 8GB (4GB x2 node)
free mem: about 5GB
- Then, 4.7GB x 16% ~= 880MB.
So, Quicklist can use 800MB.
So, if following spec machine run that program
CPUs: 64 (8cpu x 8node)
Mem: 1TB (128GB x8node)
Then, quicklist can waste 300GB (= 1TB x 30%). It is too large.
So, I don't like cache policies which is proportional to # of cpus.
My patch changes the number of caches
from:
per-cpu-cache-amount = memory_on_node / 16
to
per-cpu-cache-amount = memory_on_node / 16 / number_of_cpus_on_node.

And also remove checking NULL dev_cgroup, it won't be NULL since a task

We don't change pid_ns->child_reaper when the main thread of the
subnamespace init exits. As Robert Rex <robert.rex@exasol.com> pointed
out this is wrong.
Yes, the re-parenting itself works correctly, but if the reparented task
exits it needs ->parent->nsproxy->pid_ns in do_notify_parent(), and if the
main thread is zombie its ->nsproxy was already cleared by
exit_task_namespaces().
Introduce the new function, find_new_reaper(), which finds the new
->parent for the re-parenting and changes ->child_reaper if needed. Kill
the now unneeded exit_child_reaper().
Also move the changing of ->child_reaper from zap_pid_ns_processes() to
find_new_reaper(), this consolidates the games with ->child_reaper and
makes it stable under tasklist_lock.

zap_pid_ns_processes() sets pid_ns->child_reaper = NULL, this is wrong.
Yes, we have already killed all tasks in this namespace, and sys_wait4()
doesn't see any child. But this doesn't mean ->children list is empty, we
may have EXIT_DEAD tasks which are not visible to do_wait(). In that case
the subsequent forget_original_parent() will crash the kernel because it
will try to re-parent these tasks to the NULL reaper.
Even if there are no childs, it is not good that forget_original_parent()
uses reaper == NULL.
Change the code to set ->child_reaper = init_pid_ns.child_reaper instead.
We could use pid_ns->parent->child_reaper as well, I think this does not
really matter. These EXIT_DEAD tasks are not visible to the new ->parent
after re-parenting, they will silently do release_task() eventually.
Note that we must change ->child_reaper, otherwise
forget_original_parent() will use reaper == father, and in that case we
will hit the (correct) BUG_ON(!list_empty(&father->children)).

This bug has been around for a LONG time. The MM warning is from late
2005, but the driver merged a year later ... so I'm puzzled why nobody
noticed this before now.
The fix involves noting that this buffer shouldn't be DMA-coherent; it's
just used for normal DMA writes. So replace it with standard kmalloc()
buffering and DMA mapping calls.
This is the quickie fix. A better one would not rely on allocating large
bounce buffers. (Note that dma_alloc_coherent could have failed too, but
that case was ignored... kmalloc is a bit more likely to fail though.)

Recent changes to tighten the check for UARTs that don't correctly
re-assert THRE (01c194d9278efc15d4785ff205643e9c0bdcef53: "serial 8250:
tighten test for using backup timer") caused problems when such a UART was
opened for the second time - the bug could only successfully be detected
at first initialization. For users of this version of this particular
UART IP it is fatal.
This patch stores the information about the bug in the bugs field of the
port structure when the port is first started up so subsequent opens can
check this bit even if the test for the bug fails.
David Brownell: "My own exposure to this is that the UART on DaVinci
hardware, which TI allegedly derived from its original 16550 logic, has
periodically gone from working to unusable with the mainline 8250.c ...
and back and forth a bunch. Currently it's "unusable", a regression from
some previous versions. With this patch from Will, it's usable."

Dio write returns EIO when try_to_release_page fails because bh is
still referenced.
The patch
commit 3f31fddfa2
Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com>
Date: Fri Jul 25 01:46:22 2008 -0700
jbd: fix race between free buffer and commit transaction
was merged into 2.6.27-rc1, but I noticed that this patch is not enough
to fix the race.
I did fsstress test heavily to 2.6.27-rc1, and found that dio write still
sometimes got EIO through this test.
The patch above fixed race between freeing buffer(dio) and committing
transaction(jbd) but I discovered that there is another race, freeing
buffer(dio) and ext3/4_ordered_writepage.
: background_writeout()
->write_cache_pages()
->ext3_ordered_writepage()
walk_page_buffers() -> take a bh ref
block_write_full_page() -> unlock_page
: <- end_page_writeback
: <- race! (dio write->try_to_release_page fails)
walk_page_buffers() ->release a bh ref
ext3_ordered_writepage holds bh ref and does unlock_page remaining
taking a bh ref, so this causes the race and failure of
try_to_release_page.
To fix this race, I used the approach of falling back to buffered
writes if try_to_release_page() fails on a page.

I have gotten to the root cause of the hugetlb badness I reported back on
August 15th. My system has the following memory topology (note the
overlapping node):
Node 0 Memory: 0x8000000-0x44000000
Node 1 Memory: 0x0-0x8000000 0x44000000-0x80000000
setup_zone_migrate_reserve() scans the address range 0x0-0x8000000 looking
for a pageblock to move onto the MIGRATE_RESERVE list. Finding no
candidates, it happily continues the scan into 0x8000000-0x44000000. When
a pageblock is found, the pages are moved to the MIGRATE_RESERVE list on
the wrong zone. Oops.
setup_zone_migrate_reserve() should skip pageblocks in overlapping nodes.

This patch addresses an issue with the locking order. ath_rx_flush_tid()
uses spin_lock/unlock_bh when IRQs are disabled in sta_notify by mac80211.
As node clean up is still pending with ath9k and this problematic portion
of the code is expected to change anyway, thinking of a proper fix may not
be worthwhile. So having this interim fix helps the users to get rid of the
kernel warning message.
Pasted the kernel warning message for reference.

Updating sc_keytype multiple times when groupwise and pairwise
ciphers are different results in incorrect pairwise key type
assumed for TX control and normal ping fails. This works fine
for cases where both groupwise and pairwise ciphers are same.
Also use mac80211 provided enums for key length calculation.

debugfs union in struct ieee80211_sub_if_data is misused by including a
common default_key dentry as a union member. This ends occupying the same
memory area with the first dentry in other union members (structures;
usually drop_unencrypted). Consequently, debugfs operations on
default_key symlinks and drop_unencrypted entry are using the same
dentry pointer even though they are supposed to be separate ones. This
can lead to removing entries incorrectly or potentially leaving
something behind since one of the dentry pointers gets lost.
Fix this by moving the default_key dentry to a new struct
(common_debugfs) that contains dentries (more to be added in future)
that are shared by all vif types. The debugfs union must only be used
for vif type-specific entries to avoid this type of pointer corruption.

The leak in if_cs_prog_helper() is obvious.
It looks a bit as if not freeing "fw" in if_cs_prog_real() was done
intentionally, but I'm not seeing why it shouldn't be freed.

When multicasting the driver sets the number of group addresses using
the count from the previous set multicast command. In general this means
you have to set the multicast addresses twice to get the behaviour you
want.
If we were multicasting, and reduce the number of addresses we are
multicasting to, then the driver would write uninitialised data from the
stack into the group addresses to multicast to.
Only write the multicast addresses we have specifically set.

Current setup with hal and NetworkManager will fail to work
without newest hal version with this config option disabled.
Although this will solve itself by time, at the moment it is
dishonest to say that we don't know any software that uses it,
if there are many many people relying on old hal versions.

hwif_to_node() incorrectly assumes that hwif->dev always belongs to
