perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events does not create anonymous mmap events
even though the kernel does. As a result an already running application
with dynamically created code will not get profiled - all samples end up
in the unknown bucket.
This patch skips any entries with '[' in the name to avoid adding events
for special regions (eg the vsyscall page). All other executable mmaps
are assumed to be anonymous and an event is synthesized.

perf-record currently creates events enabled. When doing a system wide
collection (-a arg) this causes data collection for perf's
initialization activities -- eg., perf_event__synthesize_threads().
For some events (e.g., context switch S/W event or tracepoints like
syscalls) perf's initialization causes a lot of events to be captured
frequently generating "Check IO/CPU overload!" warnings on larger
systems (e.g., 2 socket, quad core, hyperthreading).
perf's initialization phase can be skipped by creating events
disabled and then enabling them once the initialization is done.

kallsyms__parse assumes that /proc/kallsyms is sorted and sets the end
of the previous symbol to the start of the current one.
Unfortunately module symbols are not sorted, eg:
ffffffffa0081f30 t e1000_clean_rx_irq [e1000e]
ffffffffa00817a0 t e1000_alloc_rx_buffers [e1000e]
Some symbols end up with a negative length and others have a length
larger than they should. This results in confusing perf output.
We already have a function to fixup the end of zero length symbols so
use that instead.

Fix to call convert_variable() if previous call does not fail.
To call convert_variable, it ensures "ret" is 0. However, since
"ret" has the return value of synthesize_perf_probe_arg() which
always returns positive value if it succeeded, perf probe doesn't
call convert_variable(). This will cause a SEGV when we add an
event with arguments.
This has to be fixed as it ensures "ret" is greater than 0
(or not negative).
This regression has been introduced by my previous patch, f182e3e1.

The Terratec Aureon 5.1 USB sound card support is broken since kernel
2.6.39.
2.6.39 introduced power management support for USB sound cards that added
a probing flag in struct snd_usb_audio.
During the probe of the card it gives following error message :
usb 7-2: new full speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd
cannot find UAC_HEADER
snd-usb-audio: probe of 7-2:1.3 failed with error -5

I can not comment about that "cannot find UAC_HEADER" error, but until
2.6.38 the card worked anyway.

stops in snd_usb_autoresume with -ENODEV.

CLKS parent clock switching using clock framework have to idle the McBSP

The last parameter of tpm_transmit() reflects the amount
of data expected from the device, and not the buffer size
being supplied to it. It isn't ideal to parse it directly,
so we just set it to the maximum the input buffer can handle
and let the userspace API to do such job.]

As the Amiga Zorro II address space is limited to 8.5 MiB and Zorro
devices can contain only one BAR, several Amiga Zorro II expansion
boards (mainly graphics cards) contain multiple Zorro devices: a small
one for the control registers and one (or more) for the graphics memory.
The conversion of cirrusfb to the new driver framework introduced a
regression: the driver contains a zorro_driver for the first Zorro
device, and uses the (old) zorro_find_device() call to find the second
Zorro device.
However, as the Zorro core calls device_register() as soon as a Zorro
device is identified, it may not have identified the second Zorro device
belonging to the same physical Zorro expansion card. Hence cirrusfb
could no longer find the second part of the Picasso II graphics card,
causing a NULL pointer dereference.
Defer the registration of Zorro devices with the driver framework until
all Zorro devices have been identified to fix this.
Note that the alternative solution (modifying cirrusfb to register a
zorro_driver for all Zorro devices belonging to a graphics card, instead
of only for the first one, and adding a synchronization mechanism to
defer initialization until all have been found), is not an option, as on
some cards one device may be optional (e.g. the second bank of 2 MiB of
graphics memory on the Picasso IV in Zorro II mode).

In an enclosure model where there are chaining expanders to a large body
of storage, it was discovered that libsas, responding to a broadcast
event change, would only revalidate the domain of first child expander
in the list.
The issue is that the pointer value to the discovered source device was
used to break out of the loop, rather than the content of the pointer.
This still remains non-compliant as the revalidate domain code is
supposed to loop through all child expanders, and not stop at the first
one it finds that reports a change count. However, the design of this
routine does not allow multiple device discoveries and that would be a
more complicated set of patches reserved for another day. We are fixing
the glaring bug rather than refactoring the code.

With commit c814a4c7c4, the meaning of tempX_max

MSR_IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET, but instead returns the value of CPU threshold
register T1. tempX_max_hyst was added to reflect the value of temperature
threshold register T0.
As it turns out, T0 and T1 are used on some systems, presumably by the BIOS.
Also, T0 and T1 don't have a well defined meaning. The thresholds may be used
as upper or lower limits, and it is not guaranteed that T0 <= T1. Thus, the new
attribute mapping does not reflect the actual usage of the threshold registers.
Also, register contents are changed during runtime by an entity other than the
hwmon driver, meaning the values cached by the driver do not reflect actual
register contents.
Revert most of c814a4c7c4 to address the problem.
Support for T0 and T1 will be added back in with a separate commit, using new

xz_dec_run() could incorrectly return XZ_BUF_ERROR if all of the
following was true:
- The caller knows how many bytes of output to expect and only provides
that much output space.
- When the last output bytes are decoded, the caller-provided input
buffer ends right before the LZMA2 end of payload marker. So LZMA2
won't provide more output anymore, but it won't know it yet and thus
won't return XZ_STREAM_END yet.
- A BCJ filter is in use and it hasn't left any unfiltered bytes in the
temp buffer. This can happen with any BCJ filter, but in practice
it's more likely with filters other than the x86 BCJ.
This fixes <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735408> where
Squashfs thinks that a valid file system is corrupt.
This also fixes a similar bug in single-call mode where the uncompressed
size of a block using BCJ + LZMA2 was 0 bytes and caller provided no
output space. Many empty .xz files don't contain any blocks and thus
don't trigger this bug.
This also tweaks a closely related detail: xz_dec_bcj_run() could call
xz_dec_lzma2_run() to decode into temp buffer when it was known to be
useless. This was harmless although it wasted a minuscule number of CPU
cycles.

gather_pte_stats() does a number of checks on a target page
to see whether it should even be considered for statistics.
This breaks that code out in to a separate function so that
we can use it in the transparent hugepage case in the next
patch.

We need to teach the numa_maps code about transparent huge pages. The
first step is to teach gather_stats() that the pte it is dealing with
might represent more than one page.
Note that will we use this in a moment for transparent huge pages since
they have use a single pmd_t which _acts_ as a "surrogate" for a bunch
of smaller pte_t's.
I'm a _bit_ unhappy that this interface counts in hugetlbfs page sizes
for hugetlbfs pages and PAGE_SIZE for normal pages. That means that to
figure out how many _bytes_ "dirty=1" means, you must first know the
hugetlbfs page size. That's easier said than done especially if you
don't have visibility in to the mount.
But, that's probably a discussion for another day especially since it
would change behavior to fix it. But, just in case anyone wonders why
this patch only passes a '1' in the hugetlb case...

Incorrect variable was used in validating the akm_suites array from
NL80211_ATTR_AKM_SUITES. In addition, there was no explicit
validation of the array length (we only have room for
NL80211_MAX_NR_AKM_SUITES).
This can result in a buffer write overflow for stack variables with
arbitrary data from user space. The nl80211 commands using the affected
functionality require GENL_ADMIN_PERM, so this is only exposed to admin
users.

iwlagn: do not use interruptible waits
Since the dawn of its time, iwlwifi has used
interruptible waits to wait for synchronous
commands and firmware loading.
This leads to "interesting" bugs, because it
can't actually handle the interruptions; for
example when a command sending is interrupted
it will assume the command completed fully,
and then leave it pending, which leads to all
kinds of trouble when the command finishes
later.
Since there's no easy way to gracefully deal
with interruptions, fix the driver to not use
interruptible waits.
This at least fixes the error
iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Error: Response NULL in 'REPLY_SCAN_ABORT_CMD'
I have seen in P2P testing, but it is likely
that there are other errors caused by this.

iwlagn: fix command queue timeout
If the command queue is constantly busy,
which can happen in P2P, the hangcheck
timer will frequently find a command in
it and will eventually reset the device
because nothing sets the timestamp for
this queue when commands are processed.
Fix this by setting the timestamp when
a command completes.
iwlegacy does not support P2P, but this patch fix possible
unneeded hardware resets, hence is needed.
