9a71db721a [PATCH] myri10ge - Always do a dummy RDMA after loading the firmware
Always do a dummy RDMA after loading the firmware to work around
buggy PCIe chipsets which do not implement resending properly.
This is so cheap as to be almost free, and should never have been
conditional on the tx boundary != 4096.

e3f2ddeac7 [PATCH] pi-futex: robust-futex exit
Fix robust PI-futexes to be properly unlocked on unexpected exit.

For this to work the kernel has to know whether a futex is a PI or a
non-PI one, because the semantics are different.  Since the space in
relevant glibc data structures is extremely scarce, the best solution is
to encode the 'PI' information in bit 0 of the robust list pointer.
Existing (non-PI) glibc robust futexes have this bit always zero, so the
ABI is kept.  New glibc with PI-robust-futexes will set this bit.

b13761ecd1 [PATCH] x86_64: Dump leftover backtrace entries when dwarf2 unwinder got stuck
The dwarf2 unwinder currently often gets stuck because a lot
of assembly code doesn't have proper dwarf2 annotiation yet.

This currently often happens with __down. Should fix this by
adding proper dwarf2 annotation to all inline assembly. However
until that's done we need a quick fix for 2.6.18 to avoid
incomplete backtraces.

So when this happens dump the rest of the stack with the old unwinder
instead of silently not dumping it. There was already a optional
"both" mode that dumped both, but that was too ugly.

I also clarified the headers for the different backtraces a bit.

Also add a clear error message for missing dwarf2
annotation that people can work on.

And I removed a dead variable left over from Ingo's changes.

a4045dff78 [PATCH] x86_64: Enlarge debug stack for nested kprobes
In x86_64 platform, INT1 and INT3 trap stack is IST stack called DEBUG_STACK,
when INT1/INT3 trap happens, system will switch to DEBUG_STACK by hardware.
Current DEBUG_STACK size is 4K, when int1/int3 trap happens, kernel will
minus current DEBUG_STACK IST value by 4k. But if int3/int1 trap is nested,
it will destroy other vector's IST stack. This patch modifies this, it sets
DEBUG_STACK size as 8K and allows two level of nested int1/int3 trap.

Kprobe DEBUG_STACK may be nested, because kprobe handler may be probed
by other kprobes.

Thanks jbeulich for pointing out error in the first patch.

[AK: nested kprobes are pretty dubious. Hopefully one nest
will be enough. This will cost 8K per CPU (4K more than before)]

0e92da4acb [PATCH] x86_64: Don't clobber r8-r11 in int 0x80 handler
When int 0x80 is called from long mode r8-r11 would leak out of the
kernel (or rather they would be filled with some values from
the kernel stack). I don't think it's a security issue because
the values come from the fixed stack frame which should be near
always user registers from a previous interrupt.

Still better fix it.

Longer term the register save macros need to be cleaned up
to avoid such mistakes in the future.

Original analysis from Richard Brunner, fix by me.

d5a2601734 [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Add user_mode checks to profile_pc for oprofile
Fixes a obscure user space triggerable crash during oprofiling.

Oprofile calls profile_pc from NMIs even when user_mode(regs) is not true and
the program counter is inside the kernel lock section. This opens
a race - when a user program jumps to a kernel lock address and
a NMI happens before the illegal page fault exception is raised
and the program has a unmapped esp or ebp then the kernel could
oops. NMIs have a higher priority than exceptions so that could
happen.

Add user_mode checks to i386/x86-64 profile_pc to prevent that.

9fc0a92c7e [POWERPC] force 64bit mode in fwnmi handlers to workaround firmware bugs
The firmware of POWER4 and JS20 systems does not switch the cpu to 64bit
mode when the registered system_reset and machine_check handlers get called.
If a 32bit process runs on that cpu at the time of the event, the cpu
remains in 32bit mode. xmon and kdump can not deal with it, the result is
an error like 'Bad kernel stack pointer fff2aad0 at 3200'.
xmon just loses some register info, but booting the kdump kernel usually fails.

Both handlers are not hot paths.  Duplicate the EXCEPTION_PROLOG_PSERIES macro
and add two instructions to switch to 64bit:

 li     r11,5;
 rldimi r10,r11,61,0;

8279d2e606 [POWERPC] Xserve G5 thermal control fixes
The thermal control for the Xserve G5s had a few issues. For one, the
way to program the RPM fans speeds into the FCU is different between it
and the desktop models, which I didn't figure out until recently, and it
was missing a control loop for the slots fan, running it too fast.  Both
of those problems were causing the machine to be much more noisy than
necessary.  This patch also changes the fixed value of the slots fan for
desktop G5s to 40% instead of 50%.  It seems to still have a pretty good
airflow that way and is much less noisy.

The fas216 change is trivial, it should have been using ->cmnd all the

NCR53C9 (which seem to be mostly duplicate driver with esp.c!) is doing
something odd, it should only have looked at ->cmnd before not the saved
copy that is kept for the error handlers sake.  Note that it really
should deal with the sync setting themselves but use the generic domain
validation code that get this right - but that's for later let's push

lock and to otherwise detangle the mess.

The new rules are:
1. you must do lock_cpu_hotplug() around the following functions:
   __cpufreq_driver_target
   __cpufreq_governor (for CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS operation only)
   __cpufreq_set_policy
2. governer methods (.governer) must NOT take the lock_cpu_hotplug()
   lock in any way; they are called with the lock taken already
3. if your governer spawns a thread that does things, like calling
   __cpufreq_driver_target, your thread must honor rule #1.
4. the policy lock and other cpufreq internal locks nest within
   the lock_cpu_hotplug() lock.

I'm not entirely happy about how the __cpufreq_governor rule ended up
(conditional locking rule depending on the argument) but basically all
callers pass this as a constant so it's not too horrible.

The patch also removes the cpufreq_governor() function since during the
locking audit it turned out to be entirely unused (so no need to fix it)

The patch works on my testbox, but it could use more testing
(otoh... it can't be much worse than the current code)

f59fc7f30b [IPV4/IPV6]: Setting 0 for unused port field in RAW IP recvmsg().
From: Tetsuo Handa from-linux-kernel@i-love.sakura.ne.jp

The recvmsg() for raw socket seems to return random u16 value
from the kernel stack memory since port field is not initialized.
But I'm not sure this patch is correct.
Does raw socket return any information stored in port field?

[ BSD defines RAW IP recvmsg to return a sin_port value of zero.
  This is described in Steven's TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 2 on
  page 1055, which is discussing the BSD rip_input() implementation. ]

7228749092 [IPV4] ipmr: ip multicast route bug fix.
IP multicast route code was reusing an skb which causes use after free
and double free.

From: Alexey Kuznetsov <kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru>

Note, it is real skb_clone(), not alloc_skb(). Equeued skb contains
the whole half-prepared netlink message plus room for the rest.
It could be also skb_copy(), if we want to be puristic about mangling
cloned data, but original copy is really not going to be used.
