The PCI sysfs attributes are created after the initial PCI bus scan. With
the addition of more return value checking and assertions in the device and
sysfs layers we now can get dumps like this on sparc64:

It's triggering because removal of the "config" PCI sysfs file for the
device fails.
On sparc64, after probing the device, we'll delete the PCI device via
pci_remove_bus_device() if we cannot find the firmware device tree node
corresponding to it.
This is fine, but at this point the sysfs files for the PCI device won't be
setup yet.
So we should not try to do anything in pci_remove_sysfs_dev_files() if
pci_sysfs_init() has not run yet.

initlvl=2 in seclvl gives the guarantee
"Cannot decrement the system time".
But it was possible to set the time to the maximum unixtime value
(19 Jan 2038) resulting in a wrap to the minimum value.
This patch fixes this by disallowing setting the time to any date
after 2030 with initlvl=2.
This patch does not apply to kernel 2.6.19 since the seclvl module was
already removed in this kernel.

similar to the version in adbhid_input_register(): The '<>' key and the
'^°' key on a german keyboard is swapped. Provide correct keys to
userland, external USB keyboards will not work correctly when the
'badmap'/'goodmap' workarounds from xkeyboard-config are used.
It is expected that distributions drop the badmap/goodmap part from

unlazy_fpu() can cause FPU exceptions and when it happens

ufs2 fails to mount on x86_64, claiming bad magic. This is because
ufs_super_block_third's fs_un1 member is padded out by 4 bytes for 8-byte
alignment, pushing down the rest of the struct.
Forcing this to be packed solves it. I took a quick look over other
on-disk structures and didn't immediately find other problems. I was able
to mount & ls a populated ufs2 filesystem w/ this change.

sys_move_pages() uses vmalloc() to allocate an array of structures
that is fills with information passed from user mode and then passes to
do_stat_pages() (in the case the node list is NULL). do_stat_pages()
depends on a marker in the node field of the structure to decide how large
the array is and this marker is correctly inserted into the last element
of the array. However, vmalloc() doesn't zero the memory it allocates
and if the user passes NULL for the node list, then the node fields are
not filled in (except for the end marker). If the memory the vmalloc()
returned happend to have a word with the marker value in it in just the
right place, do_pages_stat will fail to fill the status field of part
of the array and we will return (random) kernel data to user mode.

The alignment exception used to only check the exception table for
-EFAULT, not for other errors. That opens an oops window if we can
coerce the kernel into getting an alignment exception for other reasons
in what would normally be a user-protected accessor, which can be done
via some of the futex ops. This fixes it by always checking the

The usbfs code doesn't provide sufficient mutual exclusion among open,
release, and remove. Release vs. remove is okay because they both
acquire the device lock, but open is not exclusive with either one. All
three routines modify the udev->filelist linked list, so they must not
run concurrently.
Apparently someone gave this a minimum amount of thought in the past by
explicitly acquiring the BKL at the start of the usbdev_open routine.
Oddly enough, there's a comment pointing out that locking is unnecessary
because chrdev_open already has acquired the BKL.
But this ignores the point that the files in /proc/bus/usb/* are not
char device files; they are regular files and so they don't get any
special locking. Furthermore it's necessary to acquire the same lock in
the release and remove routines, which the code does not do.
Yet another problem arises because the same file_operations structure is
accessible through both the /proc/bus/usb/* and /dev/usb/usbdev* file
nodes. Even when one of them has been removed, it's still possible for
userspace to open the other. So simple locking around the individual
remove routines is insufficient; we need to lock the entire
usb_notify_remove_device notifier chain.
Rather than rely on the BKL, this patch (as723) introduces a new private
mutex for the purpose. Holding the BKL while invoking a notifier chain
doesn't seem like a good idea.

Note that 'maxsector' was being used for two different things. I have

If try_to_free_pages / balance_pgdat are called with a gfp_mask specifying
GFP_IO and/or GFP_FS, they will reclaim the requisite number of pages, and the
reset prev_priority to DEF_PRIORITY (or to some other high (ie: unurgent)
value).
However, another reclaimer without those gfp_mask flags set (say, GFP_NOIO)
may still be struggling to reclaim pages. The concurrent overwrite of
zone->prev_priority will cause this GFP_NOIO thread to unexpectedly cease
deactivating mapped pages, thus causing reclaim difficulties.
Fix this is to key the distress calculation not off zone->prev_priority, but
also take into account the local caller's priority by using
min(zone->prev_priority, sc->priority)

The temp_priority field in zone is racy, as we can walk through a reclaim
path, and just before we copy it into prev_priority, it can be overwritten
(say with DEF_PRIORITY) by another reclaimer.
The same bug is contained in both try_to_free_pages and balance_pgdat, but
it is fixed slightly differently. In balance_pgdat, we keep a separate
priority record per zone in a local array. In try_to_free_pages there is
no need to do this, as the priority level is the same for all zones that we
reclaim from.
Impact of this bug is that temp_priority is copied into prev_priority, and
setting this artificially high causes reclaimers to set distress
artificially low. They then fail to reclaim mapped pages, when they are,
in fact, under severe memory pressure (their priority may be as low as 0).
This causes the OOM killer to fire incorrectly.
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>
__zone_reclaim() isn't modifying zone->prev_priority. But zone->prev_priority
is used in the decision whether or not to bring mapped pages onto the inactive
list. Hence there's a risk here that __zone_reclaim() will fail because
zone->prev_priority ir large (ie: low urgency) and lots of mapped pages end up
stuck on the active list.
Fix that up by decreasing (ie making more urgent) zone->prev_priority as
__zone_reclaim() scans the zone's pages.
This bug perhaps explains why ZONE_RECLAIM_PRIORITY was created. It should be
possible to remove that now, and to just start out at DEF_PRIORITY?

If the open intents tell us that a given lookup is going to result in a,
exclusive create, we currently optimize away the lookup call itself. The
reason is that the lookup would not be atomic with the create RPC call, so
why do it in the first place?
A problem occurs, however, if the VFS aborts the exclusive create operation
after the lookup, but before the call to create the file/directory: in this
case we will end up with a hashed negative dentry in the dcache that has
never been looked up.
Fix this by only actually hashing the dentry once the create operation has
been successfully completed.

For Hummingbird PCI controllers, we should create the root
PCI memory space resource as the full 4GB area, and then
allocate the IOMMU DMA translation window out of there.
The old code just assumed that the IOMMU DMA translation base
to the top of the 4GB area was unusable. This is not true on
many systems such as SB100 and SB150, where the IOMMU DMA
translation window sits at 0xc0000000->0xdfffffff.
So what would happen is that any device mapped by the firmware
at the top section 0xe0000000->0xffffffff would get remapped
by Linux somewhere else leading to all kinds of problems and
boot failures.
While we're here, report more cases of OBP resource assignment
conflicts. The only truly valid ones are ROM resource conflicts.

This is a particularly ugly on-failure bug, possibly security, since the
lack of error handling here is covering up another class of bug: failure to
handle copy_to_user() return values.
The I4L API function ->readstat() returns an integer, and by looking at
several existing driver implementations, it is clear that a negative return
value was meant to indicate an error.
Given that several drivers already return a negative value indicating an
errno-style error, the current code would blindly accept that [negative]
value as a valid amount of bytes read. Obvious damage ensues.
Correcting ->readstat() handling to properly notice errors fixes the
existing code to work correctly on error, and enables future patches to
more easily indicate errors during operation.

The integer divisions in the timer accounting code can round the result
down to 0. Adding 0 is without effect and the signal delivery stops.
Clamp the division result to minimum 1 to avoid this.
Problem was reported by Seongbae Park <spark@google.com>, who provided
also an inital patch.
Roland sayeth:
I have had some more time to think about the problem, and to reproduce it
using Toyo's test case. For the record, if my understanding of the problem
is correct, this happens only in one very particular case. First, the
expiry time has to be so soon that in cputime_t units (usually 1s/HZ ticks)
it's < nthreads so the division yields zero. Second, it only affects each
thread that is so new that its CPU time accumulation is zero so now+0 is
still zero and ->it_*_expires winds up staying zero. For the VIRT and PROF
clocks when cputime_t is tick granularity (or the SCHED clock on
configurations where sched_clock's value only advances on clock ticks), this
is not hard to arrange with new threads starting up and blocking before they
accumulate a whole tick of CPU time. That's what happens in Toyo's test
case.
Note that in general it is fine for that division to round down to zero,
and set each thread's expiry time to its "now" time. The problem only
arises with thread's whose "now" value is still zero, so that now+0 winds up
0 and is interpreted as "not set" instead of ">= now". So it would be a
sufficient and more precise fix to just use max(ticks, 1) inside the loop
when setting each it_*_expires value.
But, it does no harm to round the division up to one and always advance
every thread's expiry time. If the thread didn't already fire timers for
the expiry time of "now", there is no expectation that it will do so before
the next tick anyway. So I followed Thomas's patch in lifting the max out
of the loops.
This patch also covers the reload cases, which are harder to write a test
for (and I didn't try). I've tested it with Toyo's case and it fixes that.

Previously, since determination whether there was an Intel random number
generator was based on a single bit, on systems with a matching bridge
device but without a firmware hub, there was a 50% chance that the code
would incorrectly decide that the system had an RNG. This patch adds
detection of the firmware hub to better qualify the existence of an RNG.
There is one issue with the patch: I was unable to determine the LPC
equivalent for the PCI bridge 8086:2430 (since the old code didn't care
about which of the many devices provided by the ICH/ESB it was chose to use
the PCI bridge device, but the FWH settings live in the LPC device, so the
device list needed to be changed).

Add needed includes for syscall() function, also to remove warnings spit out by
GCC; they were added by previous -stable patch, and at least on my system
(Ubuntu x86-64) these warnings do show up.
