Without this patch, inodes are not promptly freed on last close of an
unlinked file by an nfs client:
client$ mount -tnfs4 server:/export/ /mnt/
client$ tail -f /mnt/FOO
...
server$ df -i /export
server$ rm /export/FOO
(^C the tail -f)
server$ df -i /export
server$ echo 2 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
server$ df -i /export
the df's will show that the inode is not freed on the filesystem until
the last step, when it could have been freed after killing the client's
tail -f. On-disk data won't be deallocated either, leading to possible
spurious ENOSPC.
This occurs because when the client does the close, it arrives in a
compound with a putfh and a close, processed like:
- putfh: look up the filehandle. The only alias found for the
inode will be DCACHE_UNHASHED alias referenced by the filp
this, so it creates a new DCACHE_DISCONECTED dentry and
returns that instead.
- close: closes the existing filp, which is destroyed
immediately by dput() since it's DCACHE_UNHASHED.
- end of the compound: release the reference
to the current filehandle, and dput() the new
DCACHE_DISCONECTED dentry, which gets put on the
unused list instead of being destroyed immediately.
Nick Piggin suggested fixing this by allowing d_obtain_alias to return
the unhashed dentry that is referenced by the filp, instead of making it
create a new dentry.
Leave __d_find_alias() alone to avoid changing behavior of other
callers.
Also nfsd doesn't need all the checks of __d_find_alias(); any dentry,
hashed or unhashed, disconnected or not, should work.

In the fallocate path the kernel doesn't check for the immutable/append
flag. It's possible to have a race condition in this scenario: an
application open a file in read/write and it does something, meanwhile
root set the immutable flag on the file, the application at that point
can call fallocate with success. In addition, we don't allow to do any
unreserve operation on an append only file but only the reserve one.

mm_fault_error() should not execute oom-killer, if page fault
occurs in kernel space. E.g. in copy_from_user()/copy_to_user().
This would happen if we find ourselves in OOM on a
copy_to_user(), or a copy_from_user() which faults.
Without this patch, the kernels hangs up in copy_from_user(),
because OOM killer sends SIG_KILL to current process, but it
can't handle a signal while in syscall, then the kernel returns
to copy_from_user(), reexcute current command and provokes
page_fault again.
With this patch the kernel return -EFAULT from copy_from_user().
The code, which checks that page fault occurred in kernel space,
has been copied from do_sigbus().
This situation is handled by the same way on powerpc, xtensa,

Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30462
In commit d80bc0fd262ef840ed4e82593ad6416fa1ba3fc4 ("ipv6: Always
clone offlink routes.") we forced the kernel to always clone offlink
routes.
The reason we do that is to make sure we never bind an inetpeer to a
prefixed route.
The logic turned on here has existed in the tree for many years,
but was always off due to a protecting CPP define. So perhaps
it's no surprise that there is a logic bug here.
The problem is that we canot clone a route that is already a
host route (ie. has DST_HOST set). Because if we do, an identical
entry already exists in the routing tree and therefore the
ip6_rt_ins() call is going to fail.
This sets off a series of failures and high cpu usage, because when
ip6_rt_ins() fails we loop retrying this operation a few times in
order to handle a race between two threads trying to clone and insert
the same host route at the same time.
Fix this by simply using the route as-is when DST_HOST is set.

Since a8f80e8ff94ecba629542d9b4b5f5a8ee3eb565c any process with
CAP_NET_ADMIN may load any module from /lib/modules/. This doesn't mean
that CAP_NET_ADMIN is a superset of CAP_SYS_MODULE as modules are
limited to /lib/modules/**. However, CAP_NET_ADMIN capability shouldn't
allow anybody load any module not related to networking.
This patch restricts an ability of autoloading modules to netdev modules
with explicit aliases. This fixes CVE-2011-1019.
Arnd Bergmann suggested to leave untouched the old pre-v2.6.32 behavior
of loading netdev modules by name (without any prefix) for processes
with CAP_SYS_MODULE to maintain the compatibility with network scripts
that use autoloading netdev modules by aliases like "eth0", "wlan0".
Currently there are only three users of the feature in the upstream
kernel: ipip, ip_gre and sit.

The combination of commit
8154c5d22d91cd16bd9985b0638c8957e4688d0e and
93c22703efa72c7527dbd586d1951c1f4a85fd70
Broke boot on iSeries.
The problem is that iSeries very early boot code, which generates
the device-tree and runs before our normal early initializations
does need access the lppaca's very early, before the PACA array is
initialized, and in fact even before the boot PACA has been
initialized (it contains all 0's at this stage).
However, the first patch above makes that code use the new
llpaca_of(cpu) accessor, which itself is changed by the second patch to
use the PACA array.
We fix that by reverting iSeries to directly dereferencing the array. In
addition, we fix all iterators in the iSeries code to always skip CPU
whose number is above 63 which is the maximum size of that array and
the maximum number of supported CPUs on these machines.
Additionally, we make sure the boot_paca is properly initialized
in our early startup code.

In usual cases ifa_address == ifa_local, but in the case where
SIOCSIFDSTADDR sets the destination address on a point-to-point
link, ifa_address gets set to that destination address.
Therefore we should use ifa_local when we want the local interface
address.
There were two cases where the selection was done incorrectly:
1) When devinet_ioctl() does matching, it checks ifa_address even
though gifconf correct reported ifa_local to the user
2) IN_DEV_ARP_NOTIFY handling sends a gratuitous ARP using
ifa_address instead of ifa_local.

The rtc-test driver is meant to provide a test/debug code for the RTC
subsystem.
The rtc-test driver simulates specific interrupts by echoing to the
sys interface. Those were the update, alarm and periodic interrupts.
As a side effect of the new implementation, any interrupt generated in
the rtc-test driver would trigger the same code path in the generic
code, and thus the distinction among interrupts gets lost.
This patch preserves the previous behaviour of the rtc-test driver,
where e.g. an update interrupt would not trigger an alarm or periodic
interrupt, and vice-versa. In real world RTC drivers, this is not an
issue, but in the rtc-test driver it may be interesting to distinguish
these interrupts for testing purposes.

Mark Brown pointed out a corner case: that RTC alarms should
be allowed to be persistent across reboots if the hardware
supported it.
The rework of the generic layer to virtualize the RTC alarm
virtualized much of the alarm handling, and removed the
code used to read the alarm time from the hardware.
Mark noted if we want the alarm to be persistent across
reboots, we need to re-read the alarm value into the
virtualized generic layer at boot up, so that the generic
layer properly exposes that value.
This patch restores much of the earlier removed
rtc_read_alarm code and wires it in so that we
set the kernel's alarm value to what we find in the
hardware at boot time.
NOTE: Not all hardware supports persistent RTC alarm state across
system reset. rtc-cmos for example will keep the alarm time, but
disables the AIE mode irq. Applications should not expect the RTC
alarm to be valid after a system reset. We will preserve what
we can, to represent the hardware state at boot, but its not
guarenteed.
Further, in the future, with multiplexed RTC alarms, the
soonest alarm to fire may not be the one set via the /dev/rt
ioctls. So an application may set the alarm with RTC_ALM_SET,
but after a reset find that RTC_ALM_READ returns an earlier
time. Again, we preserve what we can, but applications should
not expect the RTC alarm state to persist across a system reset.
Big thanks to Mark for pointing out the issue!
Thanks also to Marcelo for helping think through the solution.

Add an "overwrite" trace_option for ftrace to control whether the buffer should
be overwritten on overflow or not. The default remains to overwrite old events
when the buffer is full. This patch adds the option to instead discard newest
events when the buffer is full. This is useful to get a snapshot of traces just
after enabling traces. Dropping the current event is also a simpler code path.

Return 0 on failure. This will cause the initialization of the driver
to fail and prevent the driver from loading if the BIOS cannot handle
the PCC interface command to "get frequency". Otherwise, the driver
will load and display a very high value like "4294967274" (which is
actually -EINVAL) for frequency:
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq
4294967274

kallsyms has a virtual file name [kernel.kallsyms]. Currently, it can't
be added to buildid cache successfully because the code
(build_id_cache__add_s) tries to resolve [kernel.kallsyms] to a real
absolute pathname and that fails.
Fixes it by not resolving it and just use the name [kernel.kallsyms].
So dir ~/.debug/[kernel.kallsyms] is created.

Due to commit 781c5a67f152c17c3e4a9ed9647f8c0be6ea5ae9 it is
likely that the number of areas to scan for BIOS corruption is 0
-- especially when the first 64K is already reserved
(X86_RESERVE_LOW is 64K by default).
If that's the case then don't set up the scan.

The BAU's initialization of the broadcast description header is
lacking the coherence domain (high bits) in the nasid. This
causes a catastrophic system failure when running on a system
with multiple coherence domains.

Now we've got multi-component we need to make sure that the DAPM context
(and hence register I/O context) we use to apply the pending updates at
the end of a DAPM sequence is the one we were processing rather than the
one that was used to initate the state change.
