commit 15e3d5a285ab9283136dba34bbf72886d9146706 upstream.

3w controller don't dma map small single SGL entry commands but instead
bounce buffer them.  Add a helper to identify these commands and don't
call scsi_dma_unmap for them.

Based on an earlier patch from James Bottomley.

Commit 3adeb2566b9b ("MIPS: Loongson: Improve LEFI firmware interface")
made the number of UARTs dynamic if LEFI_FIRMWARE_INTERFACE is configured.
Unfortunately, it did not initialize the number of UARTs if
LEFI_FIRMWARE_INTERFACE is not configured. As a result, the Fulong2e
system has no console.

<title>mm/slab: fix unexpected index mapping result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE+1)</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e3f916d20c2dc6169a14cb8266bbdb88a97bbbae</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 03a2d2a3eafe4015412cf4e9675ca0e2d9204074 upstream.

Commit description is copied from the original post of this bug:

  http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/135349

Kernels after v3.9 use kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) to get the next
larger cache size than the size index INDEX_NODE mapping.  In kernels
3.9 and earlier we used malloc_sizes[INDEX_L3 + 1].cs_size.

However, sometimes we can't get the right output we expected via
kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1), causing a BUG().

The mapping table in the latest kernel is like:
    index = {0,   1,  2 ,  3,  4,   5,   6,   n}
     size = {0,   96, 192, 8, 16,  32,  64,   2^n}
The mapping table before 3.10 is like this:
    index = {0 , 1 , 2,   3,  4 ,  5 ,  6,   n}
    size  = {32, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 512, 2^(n+3)}

The problem on my mips64 machine is as follows:

(1) When configured DEBUG_SLAB &amp;&amp; DEBUG_PAGEALLOC &amp;&amp; DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
    &amp;&amp; DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node) will be "150",
    and the macro INDEX_NODE turns out to be "2": #define INDEX_NODE
    kmalloc_index(sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node))

(2) Then the result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) is 8.

(3) Then "if(size &gt;= kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1)" will lead to "size
    = PAGE_SIZE".

(4) Then "if ((size &gt;= (PAGE_SIZE &gt;&gt; 3))" test will be satisfied and
    "flags |= CFLGS_OFF_SLAB" will be covered.

(5) if (flags &amp; CFLGS_OFF_SLAB)" test will be satisfied and will go to
    "cachep-&gt;slabp_cache = kmalloc_slab(slab_size, 0u)", and the result
    here may be NULL while kernel bootup.

(6) Finally,"BUG_ON(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(cachep-&gt;slabp_cache));" causes the
    BUG info as the following shows (may be only mips64 has this problem):

This patch fixes the problem of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) and removes
the BUG by adding 'size &gt;= 256' check to guarantee that all necessary
small sized slabs are initialized regardless sequence of slab size in
mapping table.

commit 7180dddf7c32c49975c7e7babf2b60ed450cb760 upstream.

The kernel may delay interrupts for a long time which can result in timers
being delayed. If this occurs the intel_pstate driver will crash with a
divide by zero error:

The kernel values for cpudata for CPU 113 were:

struct cpudata {
  cpu = 113,
  timer = {
    entry = {
      next = 0x0,
      prev = 0xdead000000200200
    },

    base = 0xffff883fe84ec001,
    function = 0xffffffff814a9100 &lt;intel_pstate_timer_func&gt;,
    data = 18446612406765768960,
&lt;snip&gt;
    i_gain = 0,
    d_gain = 0,
    deadband = 0,
    last_err = 22489
  },
  last_sample_time = {
    tv64 = 4063132438017305
  },
  prev_aperf = 287326796397463,
  prev_mperf = 251427432090198,
  sample = {
    core_pct_busy = 23081,
    aperf = 2937407,
    mperf = 3257884,
    freq = 2524484,
    time = {
      tv64 = 4063149215234118
    }
  }
}

which results in the time between samples = last_sample_time - sample.time
= 4063149215234118 - 4063132438017305 = 16777216813 which is 16.777 seconds.

The duration between reads of the APERF and MPERF registers overflowed a s32
sized integer in intel_pstate_get_scaled_busy()'s call to div_fp().  The result
is that int_tofp(duration_us) == 0, and the kernel attempts to divide by 0.

While the kernel shouldn't be delaying for a long time, it can and does
happen and the intel_pstate driver should not panic in this situation.  This
patch changes the div_fp() function to use div64_s64() to allow for "long"
division.  This will avoid the overflow condition on long delays.

[v2]: use div64_s64() in div_fp()

commit 8f1bd8f2ad2358d6a88c115481ff3e69817d1bde upstream.

If atmel_init_gpios fails the port has already been marked as busy (in
line 2629), so this must be undone in the error path.

This bug was introduced because I created the patch that finally
became 722ccf416ac2 ("serial: atmel: fix error handling when
mctrl_gpio_init fails") on top of 3.19 which didn't have commit
6fbb9bdf0f3f ("tty/serial: at91: fix error handling in
atmel_serial_probe()") yet.

This adds an entry to the uart_config table for PORT_RT2880
enabling rx/tx FIFOs.  The UART is actually a Palmchip BK-3103
which is found in several devices from Alchemy/RMI, Ralink, and
Sigma Designs.

commit e81107d4c6bd098878af9796b24edc8d4a9524fd upstream.

My colleague ran into a program stall on a x86_64 server, where
n_tty_read() was waiting for data even if there was data in the buffer
in the pty.  kernel stack for the stuck process looks like below.
 #0 [ffff88303d107b58] __schedule at ffffffff815c4b20
 #1 [ffff88303d107bd0] schedule at ffffffff815c513e
 #2 [ffff88303d107bf0] schedule_timeout at ffffffff815c7818
 #3 [ffff88303d107ca0] wait_woken at ffffffff81096bd2
 #4 [ffff88303d107ce0] n_tty_read at ffffffff8136fa23
 #5 [ffff88303d107dd0] tty_read at ffffffff81368013
 #6 [ffff88303d107e20] __vfs_read at ffffffff811a3704
 #7 [ffff88303d107ec0] vfs_read at ffffffff811a3a57
 #8 [ffff88303d107f00] sys_read at ffffffff811a4306
 #9 [ffff88303d107f50] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath at ffffffff815c86d7

There seems to be two problems causing this issue.

First, in drivers/tty/n_tty.c, __receive_buf() stores the data and
updates ldata-&gt;commit_head using smp_store_release() and then checks
the wait queue using waitqueue_active().  However, since there is no
memory barrier, __receive_buf() could return without calling
wake_up_interactive_poll(), and at the same time, n_tty_read() could
start to wait in wait_woken() as in the following chart.

        __receive_buf()                         n_tty_read()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
if (waitqueue_active(&amp;tty-&gt;read_wait))
/* Memory operations issued after the
   RELEASE may be completed before the
   RELEASE operation has completed */
                                        add_wait_queue(&amp;tty-&gt;read_wait, &amp;wait);
                                        ...
                                        if (!input_available_p(tty, 0)) {
smp_store_release(&amp;ldata-&gt;commit_head,
                  ldata-&gt;read_head);
                                        ...
                                        timeout = wait_woken(&amp;wait,
                                          TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, timeout);
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The second problem is that n_tty_read() also lacks a memory barrier
call and could also cause __receive_buf() to return without calling
wake_up_interactive_poll(), and n_tty_read() to wait in wait_woken()
as in the chart below.

        __receive_buf()                         n_tty_read()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                        spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;q-&gt;lock, flags);
                                        /* from add_wait_queue() */
                                        ...
                                        if (!input_available_p(tty, 0)) {
                                        /* Memory operations issued after the
                                           RELEASE may be completed before the
                                           RELEASE operation has completed */
smp_store_release(&amp;ldata-&gt;commit_head,
                  ldata-&gt;read_head);
if (waitqueue_active(&amp;tty-&gt;read_wait))
                                        __add_wait_queue(q, wait);
                                        spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;q-&gt;lock,flags);
                                        /* from add_wait_queue() */
                                        ...
                                        timeout = wait_woken(&amp;wait,
                                          TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, timeout);
------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are also other places in drivers/tty/n_tty.c which have similar
calls to waitqueue_active(), so instead of adding many memory barrier
calls, this patch simply removes the call to waitqueue_active(),
leaving just wake_up*() behind.

This fixes both problems because, even though the memory access before
or after the spinlocks in both wake_up*() and add_wait_queue() can
sneak into the critical section, it cannot go past it and the critical
section assures that they will be serialized (please see "INTER-CPU
ACQUIRING BARRIER EFFECTS" in Documentation/memory-barriers.txt for a
better explanation).  Moreover, the resulting code is much simpler.

Latency measurement using a ping-pong test over a pty doesn't show any
visible performance drop.

commit b1d562acc78f0af46de0dfe447410bc40bdb7ece upstream.

Here is a patch to make speakup-r work again.

It broke in 3.6 due to commit 4369c64c79a22b98d3b7eff9d089196cd878a10a
"Input: Send events one packet at a time)

The problem was that the fakekey.c routine to fake a down arrow no
longer functioned properly and putting the input_sync fixed it.
