<title>sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to &lt;linux/sched/signal.h&gt;</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3f07c0144132e4f59d88055ac8ff3e691a5fa2b8</id>
<content type='text'>
We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/signal.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/signal.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big char/misc driver patchset for 4.11-rc1.

  Lots of different driver subsystems updated here: rework for the
  hyperv subsystem to handle new platforms better, mei and w1 and extcon
  driver updates, as well as a number of other "minor" driver updates.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

<content type='text'>
Since we need to change the implementation, stop exposing internals.

Provide kref_read() to read the current reference count; typically
used for debug messages.

Kills two anti-patterns:

	atomic_read(&amp;kref-&gt;refcount)
	kref-&gt;refcount.counter

Simply the interrupt setup by using the new PCI layer helpers.

One odd thing about this driver is that it looks like it could request
multiple MSI vectors, but it will then only ever use a single one.

<title>GenWQE: Fix bad page access during abort of resource allocation</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a7a7aeefbca2982586ba2c9fd7739b96416a6d1d</id>
<content type='text'>
When interrupting an application which was allocating DMAable
memory, it was possible, that the DMA memory was deallocated
twice, leading to the error symptoms below.

Thanks to Gerald, who analyzed the problem and provided this
patch.

I agree with his analysis of the problem: ddcb_cmd_fixups() -&gt;
genwqe_alloc_sync_sgl() (fails in f/lpage, but sgl-&gt;sgl != NULL
and f/lpage maybe also != NULL) -&gt; ddcb_cmd_cleanup() -&gt;
genwqe_free_sync_sgl() (double free, because sgl-&gt;sgl != NULL and
f/lpage maybe also != NULL)

In this scenario we would have exactly the kind of double free that
would explain the WARNING / Bad page state, and as expected it is
caused by broken error handling (cleanup).

Using the Ubuntu git source, tag Ubuntu-4.4.0-33.52, he was able to reproduce
the "Bad page state" issue, and with the patch on top he could not reproduce
it any more.

Genwqe uses dma_alloc_coherent and depends on zero initialized memory. On
one occasion it ueses an explicit memset on others it uses un-initialized
memory.

This bug was covered because some archs actually return zero initialized
memory when using dma_alloc_coherent but this is by no means guaranteed.
Simply switch to dma_zalloc_coherent.

Since it should always be ok for normal users to operate the accelerator,
it makes sense to change it in our driver, rather than adding udev rules
for all Linux distributions.
