In the CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL fast-path for x86 64-bit system calls,
we can pass a bad return value and/or error indication for the
system call to audit_syscall_exit(). This happens when
TIF_NEED_RESCHED was set as the system call returned, so we went
out to schedule() and came back to the exit-audit fast-path. The
fix is to reload the user return value register from the pt_regs
before using it for audit_syscall_exit().
Both the 32-bit kernel's fast path and the 64-bit kernel's 32-bit
system call fast paths work slightly differently, so that they
always leave the fast path entirely to reschedule and don't return
there, so they don't have the analogous bugs.

Immediately following an exit from the kdb shell the kgdb_connected

In the process of merging kdb to the mainline, the kdb lsmod command

The gdbserial protocol handler should return an empty packet instead
of an error string when ever it responds to a command it does not
implement.
The problem cases come from a debugger client sending
qTBuffer, qTStatus, qSearch, qSupported.
The incorrect response from the gdbstub leads the debugger clients to
not function correctly. Recent versions of gdb will not detach correctly as a result of this behavior.

Trying to read the FC host statistics on an offline adapter results in
a 5 seconds wait. Reading the statistics tries to issue an exchange
port data request which first waits up to 5 seconds for an entry in
the request queue.
Change the strategy for getting a free SBAL to exit when the queue is
stopped. Reading the statistics will then fail without the wait.

The Nokia RX51 board code (arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-rx51-peripherals.c)
defines a key map for the matrix keypad keyboard. The hardware seems to
use all of the 8 rows and 8 columns of the keypad, although not all
possible locations are used.
The TWL4030 supports keypads with at most 8 rows and 8 columns. Most keys
are defined with a row and column number between 0 and 7, except
KEY(0xff, 2, KEY_F9),
KEY(0xff, 4, KEY_F10),
KEY(0xff, 5, KEY_F11),
which represent keycodes that should be emitted when entire row is
connected to the ground. since the driver handles this case as if we
had an extra column in the key matrix. Unfortunately we do not allocate
enough space and end up owerwriting some random memory.

The kernel's math-emu code contains a macro _FP_FROM_INT() which is
used to convert an integer to a raw normalized floating-point value.
It does this basically in three steps:
1. Compute the exponent from the number of leading zero bits.
2. Downshift large fractions to put the MSB in the right position
for normalized fractions.
3. Upshift small fractions to put the MSB in the right position.
There is an boundary error in step 2, causing a fraction with its
MSB exactly one bit above the normalized MSB position to not be
downshifted. This results in a non-normalized raw float, which when
packed becomes a massively inaccurate representation for that input.
The impact of this depends on a number of arch-specific factors,
but it is known to have broken emulation of FXTOD instructions
on UltraSPARC III, which was originally reported as GCC bug 44631
<http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44631>.
Any arch which uses math-emu to emulate conversions from integers to
same-size floats may be affected.
The fix is simple: the exponent comparison used to determine if the
fraction should be downshifted must be "<=" not "<".
I'm sending a kernel module to test this as a reply to this message.
There are also SPARC user-space test cases in the GCC bug entry.

If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some
other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep
splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after
the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable().
This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded
process. To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for
thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty()

Commit e534c7c5f8 ("numa: x86_64: use generic percpu var
numa_node_id() implementation") broke numa systems that don't have ram
on node0 when MEMORY_HOTPLUG is enabled, because cpu_up() will call
cpu_to_node() before per_cpu(numa_node) is setup for APs.
When Node0 doesn't have RAM, on x86, cpus already round it to nearest
node with RAM in x86_cpu_to_node_map. and per_cpu(numa_node) is not set
up until in c_init for APs.
When later cpu_up() calling cpu_to_node() will get 0 again, and make it
online even there is no RAM on node0. so later all APs can not booted up,
and later will have panic.

The last change to improve the scalability moved the actual wake-up out of
the section that is protected by spin_lock(sma->sem_perm.lock).
This means that IN_WAKEUP can be in queue.status even when the spinlock is
acquired by the current task. Thus the same loop that is performed when
queue.status is read without the spinlock acquired must be performed when
the spinlock is acquired.

We define a number of symbols in the linker scipt like this:
__start_syscalls_metadata = .;
*(__syscalls_metadata)
But we do not know the alignment of "." when we assign
the __start_syscalls_metadata symbol.
gcc started to uses bigger alignment for structs (32 bytes),
so we saw situations where the linker due to alignment
constraints increased the value of "." after the symbol assignment.
This resulted in boot fails.
Fix this by forcing a 32 byte alignment of "." before the
assignment.
This patch introduces the forced alignment for
ftrace_events and syscalls_metadata.
It may be required in more places.
