clockevents: Set noop handler in clockevents_exchange_device()

2011-12-09T16:52:53Z

commit de28f25e8244c7353abed8de0c7792f5f883588c upstream. If a device is shutdown, then there might be a pending interrupt, which will be processed after we reenable interrupts, which causes the original handler to be run. If the old handler is the (broadcast) periodic handler the shutdown state might hang the kernel completely. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

oprofile: Fix crash when unloading module (hr timer mode)

2011-12-09T16:52:50Z

commit 87121ca504fd1d963a66b3fb0c72054b0fd9a177 upstream. Oprofile may crash in a KVM guest while unlaoding modules. This happens if oprofile_arch_init() fails and oprofile switches to the hr timer mode as a fallback. In this case oprofile_arch_exit() is called, but it never was initialized properly which causes the crash. This patch fixes this. oprofile: using timer interrupt.

jump_label: jump_label_inc may return before the code is patched

2011-12-09T16:52:50Z

commit bbbf7af4bf8fc69bc751818cf30521080fa47dcb upstream. If cpu A calls jump_label_inc() just after atomic_add_return() is called by cpu B, atomic_inc_not_zero() will return value greater then zero and jump_label_inc() will return to a caller before jump_label_update() finishes its job on cpu B.

perf: Fix parsing of __print_flags() in TP_printk()

2011-12-09T16:52:49Z

commit d06c27b22aa66e48e32f03f9387328a9af9b0625 upstream. A update is made to the sched:sched_switch event that adds some logic to the first parameter of the __print_flags() that shows the state of tasks. This change cause perf to fail parsing the flags. A simple fix is needed to have the parser be able to process ops within the argument. Reported-by: Andrew Vagin Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tick-broadcast: Stop active broadcast device when replacing it

2011-12-09T16:52:48Z

commit c1be84309c58b1e7c6d626e28fba41a22b364c3d upstream. When a better rated broadcast device is installed, then the current active device is not disabled, which results in two running broadcast devices. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tracing: fix event_subsystem ref counting

2011-12-09T16:52:48Z

commit cb59974742aea24adf6637eb0c4b8e7b48bca6fb upstream. Fix a bug introduced by e9dbfae5, which prevents event_subsystem from ever being released. Ref_count was added to keep track of subsystem users, not for counting events. Subsystem is created with ref_count = 1, so there is no need to increment it for every event, we have nr_events for that. Fix this by touching ref_count only when we actually have a new user - subsystem_open().

rtc: Disable the alarm in the hardware

2011-12-09T16:52:48Z

commit c0afabd3d553c521e003779c127143ffde55a16f upstream. Currently, the RTC code does not disable the alarm in the hardware. This means that after a sequence such as the one below (the files are in the RTC sysfs), the box will boot up after 2 minutes even though we've asked for the alarm to be turned off. # echo $((`cat since_epoch`)+120) > wakealarm # echo 0 > wakealarm # poweroff Fix this by disabling the alarm when there are no timers to run.

trace_events_filter: Use rcu_assign_pointer() when setting ftrace_event_call->filter

2011-12-09T16:52:47Z

commit d3d9acf646679c1981032b0985b386d12fccc60c upstream. ftrace_event_call->filter is sched RCU protected but didn't use rcu_assign_pointer(). Use it. TODO: Add proper __rcu annotation to call->filter and all its users. -v2: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER() for %NULL clearing as suggested by Eric.
