Tony Lindgren f9e417e901 ARM: 6402/1: Don't send IPI in smp_send_stop if there's only one CPU
No need to send IPI if there's one CPU, especially when booting
systems with CONFIG_SMP_ON_UP that may not even support IPI.

Russell King f00ec48fad ARM: Allow SMP kernels to boot on UP systems
UP systems do not implement all the instructions that SMP systems have,
so in order to boot a SMP kernel on a UP system, we need to rewrite
parts of the kernel.

Do this using an 'alternatives' scheme, where the kernel code and data
is modified prior to initialization to replace the SMP instructions,
thereby rendering the problematical code ineffectual.  We use the linker
to generate a list of 32-bit word locations and their replacement values,
and run through these replacements when we detect a UP system.

Russell King 971acb9b42 ARM: Simplify SMP/SCU/TWD dependencies
All platforms which currently support SMP also support the ARM SCU
and ARM TWD blocks, so it's pointless to make these config symbols
conditional on the platform symbols which SMP is already conditional
on.

Tejun Heo fad16e7a7f ahci: fix module refcount breakage introduced by libahci split
libata depends on scsi_host_template for module reference counting and
sht's should be owned by each low level driver.  During libahci split,
the sht was left with libahci.ko leaving the actual low level drivers
not reference counted.  This made ahci and ahci_platform always
unloadable even while they're being actively used.

Fix it by defining AHCI_SHT() macro in ahci.h and defining a sht for
each low level ahci driver.

stable: only applicable to 2.6.35.

Guenter Roeck fff2017354 hwmon (coretemp): Fix build breakage if SMP is undefined
Commit e40cc4bdfd introduced
a build breakage if CONFIG_SMP is undefined. This commit
fixes the problem.

This fix is only a workaround. For a real fix, cpu_sibling_mask() should
be defined in UP include code, eg in linux/smp.h, and asm/smp.h should not be
included directly. This fix is currently not possible because asm/smp.h defines
cpu_sibling_mask() unconditionally and is included directly from many source
files.

David S. Miller 01db403cf9 tcp: Fix >4GB writes on 64-bit.
Fixes kernel bugzilla #16603

tcp_sendmsg() truncates iov_len to an 'int' which a 4GB write to write
zero bytes, for example.

There is also the problem higher up of how verify_iovec() works.  It
wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return
value.

However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and
thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines).  So it could trigger
false-positives on 64-bit as written.  So fix it to use 'long'.

Dan Rosenberg 252a52aa4f Fix pktcdvd ioctl dev_minor range check
The PKT_CTRL_CMD_STATUS device ioctl retrieves a pointer to a
pktcdvd_device from the global pkt_devs array.  The index into this
array is provided directly by the user and is a signed integer, so the
comparison to ensure that it falls within the bounds of this array will
fail when provided with a negative index.

This can be used to read arbitrary kernel memory or cause a crash due to
an invalid pointer dereference.  This can be exploited by users with
permission to open /dev/pktcdvd/control (on many distributions, this is
readable by group "cdrom").

p9_virtio_create will only compare the the channel's tag characters
against the device name till the end of the channel's tag but not till
the end of the device name. This means that if a user defines channels
with the tags foo and foobar then he would mount foo when he requested
foonot and may mount foo when he requested foobar.

Thus it is necessary to check both string lengths against each other in

Ondrej Zary 387a856287 de2104x: fix ethtool
When the interface is up, using ethtool breaks it because:
a) link is put down but media_timer interval is not shortened to NO_LINK
b) rxtx is stopped but not restarted

Also manual 10baseT-HD (and probably FD too - untested) mode does not work -
the link is forced up, packets are transmitted but nothing is received.
Changing CSR14 value to match documentation (not disabling link check) fixes this.

When TCP uses FACK algorithm to mark lost packets in
tcp_mark_head_lost(), if the number of packets in the (TSO) skb is
greater than the number of packets that should be marked lost, TCP
incorrectly exits the loop and marks no packets lost in the skb. This

Jan Beulich 3fd6c88ef8 3c59x: fix regression from patch "Add ethtool WOL support"
This patch (commit 690a1f2002) added a
new call site for acpi_set_WOL() without checking that the function is
actually suitable to be called via

 vortex_set_wol+0xcd/0xe0 [3c59x]
 dev_ethtool+0xa5a/0xb70
 dev_ioctl+0x2e0/0x4b0
 T.961+0x49/0x50
 sock_ioctl+0x47/0x290
 do_vfs_ioctl+0x7f/0x340
 sys_ioctl+0x80/0xa0
 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

i.e. outside of code paths run when the device is not yet enabled or
already disabled. In particular, putting the device into D3hot is a
pretty bad idea when it was already brought up.

Furthermore, all prior callers of the function made sure they're
actually dealing with a PCI device, while the newly added one didn't.

In the same spirit, the .get_wol handler shouldn't indicate support
for WOL for non-PCI devices.

The HW by default has RX coalescing on.  For iWARP connections, this
causes a 100ms delay in connection establishement due to the ingress
MPA Start message being stalled in HW.  So explicitly turn RX
coalescing off when setting up iWARP connections.

This was causing very bad performance for NP64 gather operations using
Open MPI, due to the way it sets up connections on larger jobs.

Will Deacon 2de59fea8b ARM: 6411/1: vexpress: set RAM latencies to 1 cycle for PL310 on ct-ca9x4 tile
The PL310 on the ct-ca9x4 tile for the Versatile Express does not need
to add additional latency when accessing its cache RAMs. Unfortunately,
the boot monitor sets this up for an 8-cycle delay on reads and writes,
resulting in greatly reduced memory performance when the L2 cache is
enabled.

This patch sets the L2 RAM latencies to the correct value of 1 cycle
on the ct-ca9x4 tile before enabling the L2 cache.

Borislav Petkov 00740c5854 amd64_edac: Fix driver module removal
f4347553b3 removed the edac polling
mechanism in favor of using a notifier chain for conveying MCE
information to edac. However, the module removal path didn't test
whether the driver had setup the polling function workqueue at all and
the rmmod process was hanging in the kernel at try_to_del_timer_sync()
in the cancel_delayed_work() path, trying to cancel an uninitialized
work struct.

Fix that by adding a balancing check to the workqueue removal path.

Alexander Chumachenko c9e2fbd909 x86: Avoid 'constant_test_bit()' misoptimization due to cast to non-volatile
While debugging bit_spin_lock() hang, it was tracked down to gcc-4.4
misoptimization of non-inlined constant_test_bit() due to non-volatile
addr when 'const volatile unsigned long *addr' cast to 'unsigned long *'
with subsequent unconditional jump to pause (and not to the test) leading
to hang.

Compiling with gcc-4.3 or disabling CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING yields inlined
constant_test_bit() and correct jump, thus working around the kernel bug.

Other arches than asm-x86 may implement this slightly differently;
2.6.29 mitigates the misoptimization by changing the function prototype
(commit c4295fbb60) but probably fixing the issue
itself is better.
