2011-08-12drm/radeon: re-POST the asic on Apple hardware when booted via EFIMatthew Garrett1-0/+4
At least some Apples program the GPU into a state that wedges the engine once userspace starts trying to perform accelerated operations. Executing the Atom init scripts gets the hardware back into a working state. The same hardware works fine when booted via BIOS emulation, so let's just execute the init scripts on Apples when we're using EFI.

2011-08-12drm/radeon: Allow panel preferred EDID to override BIOS native modeMatthew Garrett1-2/+11
We have two sources of information about panel capabilities on mobile radeon - the BIOS, which gives us a native mode, and the panel's preferred mode. In theory these two will always match, but there's some corner cases where the BIOS hasn't been fully initialised and so the native mode in it ends up with default values. However, if we get a panel with reasonable EDID, it's probably the case that the panel's preferred mode does actually represent the panel capabilities. This patch handles that case by replacing the native mode with the panel's preferred mode if the resolutions don't match. Systems without a valid internal panel EDID will still use the BIOS native mode.

2011-08-11pnfs: Automatically select blocks & objects layoutsBoaz Harrosh1-14/+4
Just like files-layout, blocks & objects layouts are part of the NFS 4.1 protocol and should be automatically selected if NFS_4_1 is selected. The small problem is that these depend on other Kernel support being present, while files only depends on NFS itself. This patch removes from the user choice the presence of objects and blocks layout. But makes sure these are selected only if the depended subsystems are present in the Kernel.

Commit df5e6223407e ("ext4: fix deadlock in ext4_symlink() in ENOSPC conditions") recalculated the number of credits needed for a long symlink, in the process of splitting it into two transactions. However, the first credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is enabled, credits are needed to create the selinux xattr as well.

2011-08-11move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()Vasiliy Kulikov5-8/+32
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and similar functions. Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to buggy programs. The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve(). The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues. Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve() behaviour is not changed. Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork(). The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one. Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag). v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

2011-08-11cifs: Do not set cifs/ntfs acl using a file handle (try #4)Shirish Pargaonkar1-27/+1
Set security descriptor using path name instead of a file handle. We can't be sure that the file handle has adequate permission to set a security descriptor (to modify DACL). Function set_cifs_acl_by_fid() has been removed since we can't be sure how a file was opened for writing, a valid request can fail if the file was not opened with two above mentioned permissions. We could have opted to add on WRITE_DAC and WRITE_OWNER permissions to file opens and then use that file handle but adding addtional permissions such as WRITE_DAC and WRITE_OWNER could cause an any open to fail. And it was incorrect to look for read file handle to set a security descriptor anyway. Signed-off-by: Shirish Pargaonkar <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Steve French <[email protected]>

pmbus_clear_faults() attempts to clear faults on non-existing real pages. As a result, the command error bit in the status register is set, and faults are not really cleared. All byte writes to non-zero pages are requests to clear the status register on that page. Since non-zero pages are virtual and do not exist on the chip, there is nothing to do, and such requests have to be ignored. This fixes above problem.

2011-08-11perf report: Use properly build_id kernel binariesJiri Olsa3-27/+42
If we bring the recorded perf data together with kernel binary from another machine using: on server A: perf archive on server B: tar xjvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug the build_id kernel dso is not properly recognized during the "perf report" command on server B. The reason is, that build_id dsos are added during the session initialization, while the kernel maps are created during the sample event processing. The machine__create_kernel_maps functions ends up creating new dso object for kernel, but it does not check if we already have one added by build_id processing. Also the build_id reading ABI quirk added in commit: - commit b25114817a73bbd2b84ce9dba02ee1ef8989a947 perf build-id: Add quirk to deal with perf.data file format breakage populates the "struct build_id_event::pid" with 0, which is later interpreted as DEFAULT_GUEST_KERNEL_ID. This is not always correct, so it's better to guess the pid value based on the "struct build_id_event::header::misc" value. - Tested with data generated on x86 kernel version v2.6.34 and reported back on x86_64 current kernel. - Not tested for guest kernel case. Note the problem stays for PERF_RECORD_MMAP events recorded by perf that does not use proper pid (HOST_KERNEL_ID/DEFAULT_GUEST_KERNEL_ID). They are misinterpreted within the current perf code. Probably there's not much we can do about that.

2011-08-11block: improve rq_affinity placementShaohua Li1-3/+13
This patch reverts commit 35ae66e0a09ab70ed(block: Make rq_affinity = 1 work as expected). The purpose is to avoid an unnecessary IPI. Let's take an example. My test box has cpu 0-7, one socket. Say request is added from CPU 1, blk_complete_request() occurs at CPU 7. Without the reverted patch, softirq will be done at CPU 7. With it, an IPI will be directed to CPU 0, and softirq will be done at CPU 0. In this case, doing softirq at CPU 0 and CPU 7 have no difference from cache sharing point view and we can avoid an ipi if doing it in CPU 7. An immediate concern is this is just like QUEUE_FLAG_SAME_FORCE, but actually not. blk_complete_request() is running in interrupt handler, and currently I/O controller doesn't support multiple interrupts (I checked several LSI cards and AHCI), so only one CPU can run blk_complete_request(). This is still quite different as QUEUE_FLAG_SAME_FORCE. Since only one CPU runs softirq, the only difference with below patch is softirq not always runs at the first CPU of a group.

2011-08-11blktrace: add FLUSH/FUA supportNamhyung Kim3-16/+30
Add FLUSH/FUA support to blktrace. As FLUSH precedes WRITE and/or FUA follows WRITE, use the same 'F' flag for both cases and distinguish them by their (relative) position. The end results look like (other flags might be shown also): - WRITE: W - WRITE_FLUSH: FW - WRITE_FUA: WF - WRITE_FLUSH_FUA: FWF Note that we reuse TC_BARRIER due to lack of bit space of act_mask so that the older versions of blktrace tools will report flush requests as barriers from now on.

2011-08-10tcp: initialize variable ecn_ok in syncookies pathMike Waychison2-2/+2
Using a gcc 4.4.3, warnings are emitted for a possibly uninitialized use of ecn_ok. This can happen if cookie_check_timestamp() returns due to not having seen a timestamp. Defaulting to ecn off seems like a reasonable thing to do in this case, so initialized ecn_ok to false. Signed-off-by: Mike Waychison <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
