On Huang Ying's machine:
erst_tab->header_length == sizeof(struct acpi_table_einj)
but Yinghai reported that on his machine,
erst_tab->header_length == sizeof(struct acpi_table_einj) -
sizeof(struct acpi_table_header)
To make erst table size checking code works on all systems, both
testing are treated as PASS.
Same situation applies to einj_tab->header_length, so corresponding
table size checking is changed in similar way too.
v2:
- Treat both table size as valid

I have been seeing occasional pauses in transaction throughput up to
30s long under heavy parallel workloads. The only notable thing was
that the xfsaild was trying to be active during the pauses, but
making no progress. It was running exactly 20 times a second (on the
50ms no-progress backoff), and the number of pushbuf events was
constant across this time as well. IOWs, the xfsaild appeared to be
stuck on buffers that it could not push out.
Further investigation indicated that it was trying to push out inode
buffers that were pinned and/or locked. The xfsbufd was also getting
woken at the same frequency (by the xfsaild, no doubt) to push out
delayed write buffers. The xfsbufd was not making any progress
because all the buffers in the delwri queue were pinned. This scan-
and-make-no-progress dance went one in the trace for some seconds,
before the xfssyncd came along an issued a log force, and then
things started going again.
However, I noticed something strange about the log force - there
were way too many IO's issued. 516 log buffers were written, to be
exact. That added up to 129MB of log IO, which got me very
interested because it's almost exactly 25% of the size of the log.
He delayed logging code is suppose to aggregate the minimum of 25%
of the log or 8MB worth of changes before flushing. That's what
really puzzled me - why did a log force write 129MB instead of only
8MB?
Essentially what has happened is that no CIL pushes had occurred
since the previous tail push which cleared out 25% of the log space.
That caused all the new transactions to block because there wasn't
log space for them, but they kick the xfsaild to push the tail.
However, the xfsaild was not making progress because there were
buffers it could not lock and flush, and the xfsbufd could not flush
them because they were pinned. As a result, both the xfsaild and the
xfsbufd could not move the tail of the log forward without the CIL
first committing.
The cause of the problem was that the background CIL push, which
should happen when 8MB of aggregated changes have been committed, is
being held off by the concurrent transaction commit load. The
background push does a down_write_trylock() which will fail if there
is a concurrent transaction commit holding the push lock in read
mode. With 8 CPUs all doing transactions as fast as they can, there
was enough concurrent transaction commits to hold off the background
push until tail-pushing could no longer free log space, and the halt
would occur.
It should be noted that there is no reason why it would halt at 25%
of log space used by a single CIL checkpoint. This bug could
definitely violate the "no transaction should be larger than half
the log" requirement and hence result in corruption if the system
crashed under heavy load. This sort of bug is exactly the reason why
delayed logging was tagged as experimental....
The fix is to start blocking background pushes once the threshold
has been exceeded. Rework the threshold calculations to keep the
amount of log space a CIL checkpoint can use to below that of the
AIL push threshold to avoid the problem completely.

In max8925_irq_sync_unlock(), irq control bit is set at the same time.
Zero means enabling irq, and one means disabling irq.
The original code is:
irq_chg[0] &= irq_data->enable;
It should be changed to:
irq_chg[0] &= ~irq_data->enable;
Otherwise, irq control bit is mess.

the ACPI spec concerning PCIEXP_WAKE_STS points out in
in the final note field in table 4-11 that if this bit is
set to 1 and the system is put into a sleeping state then
the system will not automatically wake.
This bit gets set by hardware to indicate that the system
woke up due to a PCI Express wakeup event, so clear it during
acpi_hw_clear_acpi_status() calls to enable subsequent

The snd_ctl_new() function in sound/core/control.c allocates space for a
snd_kcontrol struct by performing arithmetic operations on a
user-provided size without checking for integer overflow. If a user
provides a large enough size, an overflow will occur, the allocated
chunk will be too small, and a second user-influenced value will be
written repeatedly past the bounds of this chunk. This code is
reachable by unprivileged users who have permission to open
a /dev/snd/controlC* device (on many distros, this is group "audio") via
the SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_ADD and SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_REPLACE ioctls.

iwl3945's scan_completed calls into the mac80211 stack which triggers a
warn on if there is no scan outstanding.
This can be avoided by not calling scan_completed but abort_scan in
iwl3945_request_scan in the done: branch of the function which is used
as an error out.
The done: branch seems to be an error-out branch, as, for example, if
iwl_is_ready(priv) returns false the done: branch is executed.
NOTE:
I'm not familiar with the driver at all.
I just quickly scanned as a reaction to
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17722

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.

Commit e40cc4bdfd4b89813f072f72bd9c7055814d3f0f 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.

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'.

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").

When setting up to transmit, a race exists between the ISR and
i2c_davinci_xfer_msg() trying to load the first byte and adjust counters.
This is mostly visible for transmits > 1 byte long.
The hardware starts sending immediately that MDR is loaded. IMR trickery
doesn't work because if we start sending, finish the first byte and an
XRDY event occurs before we load IMR to unmask it, we never get an
interrupt, and we timeout.
Move the MDR load after DXR,IMR loads to avoid this race without locking.

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.

the link is forced up, packets are transmitted but nothing is received.
