All the modules name are ro-data, it is never copied to the array.
eg.
static struct cpuidle_driver intel_idle_driver = {
.name = "intel_idle",
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
};
It safe to assign the pointer of this ro-data to a const char *.
By this way we save 12 bytes.

If the state_count is not initialized for the device use
the driver's state count as the default. That will prevent
to add it manually in the cpuidle driver initialization
routine and will save us from duplicate line of code.

Some C states of new CPU might be not good. One reason is BIOS might
configure them incorrectly. To help developers root cause it quickly, the
patch adds a new sysfs entry, so developers could disable specific C state
manually.
In addition, C state might have much impact on performance tuning, as it
takes much time to enter/exit C states, which might delay interrupt
processing. With the new debug option, developers could check if a deep C
state could impact performance and how much impact it could cause.
Also add this option in Documentation/cpuidle/sysfs.txt.

Commit 28d82dc1c4ed ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the
number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications
to longer work (dovecot for one).
The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting
(since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can
allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits
it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.
This is captured in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=681578

2) hyperv and wimax/i2400m return NETDEV_TX_BUSY when they have
already freed the SKB, which causes crashes as to the caller this
means requeue the packet. Fixes from Eric Dumazet.
3) usbnet driver doesn't allocate the right amount of headroom on
fresh RX SKBs, fix from Eric Dumazet.
4) Fix regression in ip6_mc_find_dev_rcu(), as an RCU lookup it
abolutely should not take a reference to 'dev', this leads to

5) Fix netfilter ctnetlink race between delete and timeout expiration.

When writing files to afs I sometimes hit a BUG:
kernel BUG at fs/afs/rxrpc.c:179!
With a backtrace of:
afs_free_call
afs_make_call
afs_fs_store_data
afs_vnode_store_data
afs_write_back_from_locked_page
afs_writepages_region
afs_writepages
The cause is:
ASSERT(skb_queue_empty(&call->rx_queue));
Looking at a tcpdump of the session the abort happens because we
are exceeding our disk quota:
rx abort fs reply store-data error diskquota exceeded (32)
So the abort error is valid. We hit the BUG because we haven't
freed all the resources for the call.
By freeing any skbs in call->rx_queue before calling afs_free_call
we avoid hitting leaking memory and avoid hitting the BUG.

A read of a large file on an afs mount failed:
# cat junk.file > /dev/null
cat: junk.file: Bad message
Looking at the trace, call->offset wrapped since it is only an
unsigned short. In afs_extract_data:
_enter("{%u},{%zu},%d,,%zu", call->offset, len, last, count);
...
if (call->offset < count) {
if (last) {
_leave(" = -EBADMSG [%d < %zu]", call->offset, count);
return -EBADMSG;
}
Which matches the trace:
[cat ] ==> afs_extract_data({65132},{524},1,,65536)
[cat ] <== afs_extract_data() = -EBADMSG [0 < 65536]
call->offset went from 65132 to 0. Fix this by making call->offset an
unsigned int.

The ENDPROC() on sys_fadvise64_c6x() in arch/c6x/kernel/entry.S is
outside of the conditional block with the matching ENTRY() macro. This

/tmp/ccGZBaPT.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccGZBaPT.s: Error: .size expression for sys_fadvise64_c6x does not evaluate to a constant

In fact netif_tx_stop_queue() / netif_stop_queue() is needed before

This reverts commit d47a0ac7b6 (sch_sfq: dont put new flow at the end of
flows)
As Jesper found out, patch sounded great but has bad side effects.
In stress situation, pushing new flows in front of the queue can prevent
old flows doing any progress. Packets can stay in SFQ queue for
unlimited amount of time.
It's possible to add heuristics to limit this problem, but this would
add complexity outside of SFQ scope.
A more sensible answer to Dave Taht concerns (who reported the issued I
tried to solve in original commit) is probably to use a qdisc hierarchy
so that high prio packets dont enter a potentially crowded SFQ qdisc.

CAP_SYS_ADMIN is already overloaded left and right, so to have more

The CAP_SYS_RESOUCE is chosen because this prctl option allows a current

represents what the process owns: pointers to code, data, stack

Incorrect definitions do not affect Tsi721 driver in its current default
configuration because it uses only IDB queue 0. Loss of inbound
doorbell functionality should be observed if queue other than 0 is used.

We have created a ST's Mailing list for SPEAr. This can be accessed
from non-st email ids. I want people to cc this list, when they have
changes specific to SPEAr. So, its better to get this updated in
MAINTAINERS file.
[email protected] is also added for SPEAr.

After fixing the GPF in mem_cgroup_lru_del_list(), three times one
machine running a similar load (moving and removing memcgs while
swapping) has oopsed in mem_cgroup_zone_nr_lru_pages(), when retrieving
memcg zone numbers for get_scan_count() for shrink_mem_cgroup_zone():
this is where a struct mem_cgroup is first accessed after being chosen
by mem_cgroup_iter().
Just what protects a struct mem_cgroup from being freed, in between
mem_cgroup_iter()'s css_get_next() and its css_tryget()? css_tryget()
fails once css->refcnt is zero with CSS_REMOVED set in flags, yes: but
what if that memory is freed and reused for something else, which sets
"refcnt" non-zero? Hmm, and scope for an indefinite freeze if refcnt is
left at zero but flags are cleared.
It's tempting to move the css_tryget() into css_get_next(), to make it
really "get" the css, but I don't think that actually solves anything:
the same difficulty in moving from css_id found to stable css remains.
But we already have rcu_read_lock() around the two, so it's easily fixed
if __mem_cgroup_free() just uses kfree_rcu() to free mem_cgroup.
However, a big struct mem_cgroup is allocated with vzalloc() instead of
kzalloc(), and we're not allowed to vfree() at interrupt time: there
doesn't appear to be a general vfree_rcu() to help with this, so roll
our own using schedule_work(). The compiler decently removes
vfree_work() and vfree_rcu() when the config doesn't need them.

When the system is under heavy load, there can be a significant delay
between the getscl() and time_after() calls inside sclhi(). That delay
may cause the time_after() check to trigger after SCL has gone high,
causing sclhi() to return -ETIMEDOUT.
To fix the problem, double check that SCL is still low after the
timeout has been reached, before deciding to return -ETIMEDOUT.
