Dominik Brodowski b76dc05467 pcmcia pcnet_cs: try setting io_lines to 16 if card setup fails
Some pcnet_cs compatible cards require an exact 16-lines match
of the ioport areas specified in CIS, but set the "iolines"
value in the CIS incorrectly. We can easily work around this
issue -- same as we do in serial_cs -- by first trying setting
iolines to the CIS-specified value, and then trying a 16-line
match.

Chris Metcalf 74fca9da09 arch/tile: Change struct sigcontext to be more useful
Rather than just using pt_regs, it now contains the actual saved
state explicitly, similar to pt_regs.  By doing it this way, we
provide a cleaner API for userspace (or equivalently, we avoid the
need for libc to provide its own definition of sigcontext).

While we're at it, move PT_FLAGS_xxx to where they are not visible
from userspace.  And always pass siginfo and mcontext to signal
handlers, even if they claim they don't need it, since sometimes
they actually try to use it anyway in practice.

Alex Deucher fe725d4f22 drm/radeon/kms: only warn on mipmap size checks in r600 cs checker (v2)
The texture base address registers are in units of 256 bytes.
The original CS checker treated these offsets as bytes, so the
original check was wrong.  I fixed the units in a patch during
the 2.6.36 cycle, but this ended up breaking some existing
userspace (probably due to a bug in either userspace texture allocation
or the drm texture mipmap checker).  So for now, until we come
up with a better fix, just warn if the mipmap size it too large.
This will keep existing userspace working and it should be just
as safe as before when we were checking the wrong units.  These
are GPU MC addresses, so if they fall outside of the VRAM or
GART apertures, they end up at the GPU default page, so this should
be safe from a security perspective.

v2: Just disable the warning.  It just spams the log and there's
nothing the user can do about it.

Jeff Moyer 75e1c70fc3 aio: check for multiplication overflow in do_io_submit
Tavis Ormandy pointed out that do_io_submit does not do proper bounds
checking on the passed-in iocb array:

       if (unlikely(nr < 0))
               return -EINVAL;

       if (unlikely(!access_ok(VERIFY_READ, iocbpp, (nr*sizeof(iocbpp)))))
               return -EFAULT;                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The attached patch checks for overflow, and if it is detected, the
number of iocbs submitted is scaled down to a number that will fit in
the long.  This is an ok thing to do, as sys_io_submit is documented as
returning the number of iocbs submitted, so callers should handle a
return value of less than the 'nr' argument passed in.

Jeff Layton 460cf3411b cifs: fix potential double put of TCP session reference
cifs_get_smb_ses must be called on a server pointer on which it holds an
active reference. It first does a search for an existing SMB session. If
it finds one, it'll put the server reference and then try to ensure that
the negprot is done, etc.

If it encounters an error at that point then it'll return an error.
There's a potential problem here though. When cifs_get_smb_ses returns
an error, the caller will also put the TCP server reference leading to a
double-put.

Fix this by having cifs_get_smb_ses only put the server reference if
it found an existing session that it could use and isn't returning an
error.

Roland McGrath eefdca043e x86-64, compat: Retruncate rax after ia32 syscall entry tracing
In commit d4d6715, we reopened an old hole for a 64-bit ptracer touching a
32-bit tracee in system call entry.  A %rax value set via ptrace at the
entry tracing stop gets used whole as a 32-bit syscall number, while we
only check the low 32 bits for validity.

Fix it by truncating %rax back to 32 bits after syscall_trace_enter,
in addition to testing the full 64 bits as has already been added.

H. Peter Anvin 36d001c70d x86-64, compat: Test %rax for the syscall number, not %eax
On 64 bits, we always, by necessity, jump through the system call
table via %rax.  For 32-bit system calls, in theory the system call
number is stored in %eax, and the code was testing %eax for a valid
system call number.  At one point we loaded the stored value back from
the stack to enforce zero-extension, but that was removed in checkin
d4d6715016.  An actual 32-bit process
will not be able to introduce a non-zero-extended number, but it can
happen via ptrace.

Instead of re-introducing the zero-extension, test what we are
actually going to use, i.e. %rax.  This only adds a handful of REX
prefixes to the code.

H. Peter Anvin c41d68a513 compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()
compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.

This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

Dave Airlie b64c115eb2 drm: fix race between driver loading and userspace open.
Not 100% sure this is due to BKL removal, its most likely a combination
of that + userspace timing changes in udev/plymouth. The drm adds the sysfs
device before the driver has completed internal loading, this causes udev
to make the node and plymouth to open it before we've completed loading.

The proper solution is to delay the sysfs manipulation until later in loading
however this causes knock on issues with sysfs connector nodes, so we can use
the global mutex to serialise loading and userspace opens.

usb_find_interface, get rid of BKL").

This device appears in dmesg as:
apple 0003:05AC:8242.0001: hiddev0,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Device
[Apple Computer, Inc. IR Receiver] on usb-0000:00:1d.2-1/input0

It stopped working as lircd was getting ENODEV when opening /dev/usb/hiddev0.

AFAICS hiddev_driver is a dummy driver so usb_find_interface(&hiddev_driver)
does not find anything.

The device is associated with the usbhid driver, so let's do
usb_find_interface(&hid_driver) instead.

$ ls -l /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.2/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/usb/hiddev0/device/driver

Ingo Molnar 0bf377bbb0 sched: Improve latencies under load by decreasing minimum scheduling granularity
Mathieu reported bad latencies with make -j10 kind of kbuild
workloads - which is mostly caused by us scheduling with a
too coarse granularity.

Reduce the minimum granularity some more, to make sure we
can meet the latency target.

I got the following results (make -j10 kbuild load, average of 3
runs):

 vanilla:

  maximum latency: 38278.9 µs
  average latency:  7730.1 µs

 patched:

  maximum latency: 22702.1 µs
  average latency:  6684.8 µs

Mathieu also measured it:

|
| * wakeup-latency.c (SIGEV_THREAD) with make -j10
|
| - Mainline 2.6.35.2 kernel
|
| maximum latency: 45762.1 µs
| average latency: 7348.6 µs
|
| - With only Peter's smaller min_gran (shown below):
|
| maximum latency: 29100.6 µs
| average latency: 6684.1 µs
|
