[XFRM]: Fix crash introduced by struct dst_entry reordering
XFRM expects xfrm_dst->u.next to be same pointer as dst->next, which
was broken by the dst_entry reordering in commit 1e19e02c~, causing
an oops in xfrm_bundle_ok when walking the bundle upwards.
Kill xfrm_dst->u.next and change the only user to use dst->next instead.

1. New entries can be added to tsk->pi_state_list after task completed
exit_pi_state_list(). The result is memory leakage and deadlocks.
2. handle_mm_fault() is called under spinlock. The result is obvious.
3. results in self-inflicted deadlock inside glibc.
Sometimes futex_lock_pi returns -ESRCH, when it is not expected
and glibc enters to for(;;) sleep() to simulate deadlock. This problem
is quite obvious and I think the patch is right. Though it looks like
each "if" in futex_lock_pi() got some stupid special case "else if". :-)
4. sometimes futex_lock_pi() returns -EDEADLK,
when nobody has the lock. The reason is also obvious (see comment
in the patch), but correct fix is far beyond my comprehension.
I guess someone already saw this, the chunk:
if (rt_mutex_trylock(&q.pi_state->pi_mutex))
ret = 0;
is obviously from the same opera. But it does not work, because the
rtmutex is really taken at this point: wake_futex_pi() of previous
owner reassigned it to us. My fix works. But it looks very stupid.
I would think about removal of shift of ownership in wake_futex_pi()
and making all the work in context of process taking lock.
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
Fix 1) Avoid the tasklist lock variant of the exit race fix by adding
an additional state transition to the exit code.
This fixes also the issue, when a task with recursive segfaults
is not able to release the futexes.
Fix 2) Cleanup the lookup_pi_state() failure path and solve the -ESRCH
problem finally.
Fix 3) Solve the fixup_pi_state_owner() problem which needs to do the fixup
in the lock protected section by using the in_atomic userspace access
functions.
This removes also the ugly lock drop / unqueue inside of fixup_pi_state()
Fix 4) Fix a stale lock in the error path of futex_wake_pi()
Added some error checks for verification.
The -EDEADLK problem is solved by the rtmutex fixups.

On systems with huge amount of physical memory, VFS cache and memory memmap
may eat all available system memory under 4G, then the system may fail to
allocate swiotlb bounce buffer.
There was a fix for this issue in arch/x86_64/mm/numa.c, but that fix dose
not cover sparsemem model.
This patch add fix to sparsemem model by first try to allocate memmap above

This combines two upstream commits to fix an OOPS with
AF_UNIX and SELINUX.
basically, sk->sk_socket can become null because we access
a peer socket without any locking, so it can be shut down and
released in another thread.
Commit: d410b81b4eef2e4409f9c38ef201253fbbcc7d94
[AF_UNIX]: Make socket locking much less confusing.
The unix_state_*() locking macros imply that there is some
rwlock kind of thing going on, but the implementation is
actually a spinlock which makes the code more confusing than
it needs to be.
So use plain unix_state_lock and unix_state_unlock.

[AF_UNIX]: Fix datagram connect race causing an OOPS.
Based upon an excellent bug report and initial patch by
Frederik Deweerdt.
The UNIX datagram connect code blindly dereferences other->sk_socket
via the call down to the security_unix_may_send() function.
Without locking 'other' that pointer can go NULL via unix_release_sock()
which does sock_orphan() which also marks the socket SOCK_DEAD.
So we have to lock both 'sk' and 'other' yet avoid all kinds of
potential deadlocks (connect to self is OK for datagram sockets and it
is possible for two datagram sockets to perform a simultaneous connect
to each other). So what we do is have a "double lock" function similar
to how we handle this situation in other areas of the kernel. We take
the lock of the socket pointer with the smallest address first in
order to avoid ABBA style deadlocks.
Once we have them both locked, we check to see if SOCK_DEAD is set
for 'other' and if so, drop everything and retry the lookup.

git commit f994aae1bd8e4813d59a2ed64d17585fe42d03fc changed the
function declaration of csum_tcpudp_nofold. Argument types were
changed from unsigned long to __be32 (unsigned int). Therefore we
lost the implicit type conversion that zeroed the upper half of the
registers that are used to pass parameters. Since the inline assembly
relied on this we ended up adding random values and wrong checksums
were created.
Showed only up on machines with more than 4GB since gcc produced code
where the registers that are used to pass 'saddr' and 'daddr' previously
contained addresses before calling this function.
Fix this by using 32 bit arithmetics and convert code to C, since gcc
produces better code than these hand-optimized versions.

While porting some changes of the 2.6.21-rc7 pptp/proto_gre conntrack
and nat modules to a 2.4.32 kernel I noticed that the gre_key function
returns a wrong pointer to the GRE key of a version 0 packet thus
corrupting the packet payload.
The intended behaviour for GREv0 packets is to act like
nf_conntrack_proto_generic/nf_nat_proto_unknown so I have ripped the
offending functions (not used anymore) and modified the
nf_nat_proto_gre modules to not touch version 0 (non PPTP) packets.

This is one way to solve the problem without re-arranging structure members
is to pack the structure. The patch adds an __attribute__((aligned(8))) to
the taskstats structure members so that 32 bit applications using taskstats
can work with a 64 bit kernel.
Using __attribute__((packed)) would break the 64 bit alignment of members.
The fix was tested on x86_64. After the fix, we got

ide: use correct IDE error recovery
IDE error recovery is using IDLE IMMEDIATE if the drive is busy or has DRQ set.
This violates the ATA spec (can only send IDLEÃ IMMEDIATE when drive is not
busy) and really hoses up some drives (modern drives will not be able to
recover using this error handling). The correct thing to do is issue a SRST
followed by a SET FEATURES command. This is what Western Digital recommends
for error recovery and what Western Digital says Windows does. à Ità also does
not violate the ATA spec as far as I can tell.
Bart:
* port the patch over the current tree
* undo the recalibration code removal
* send SET FEATURES command after checking for good drive status
* don't check whether the current request is of REQ_TYPE_ATA_{CMD,TASK}
type because we need to send SET FEATURES before handling any requests
* some pre-ATA4 drives require INITIALIZE DEVICE PARAMETERS command before
other commands (except IDENTIFY) so send SET FEATURES only if there are
no pending drive->special requests
* update comments and patch description
* any bugs introduced by this patch are mine and not Suleiman's :-)

[NET]: Fix fib_rules compatibility breakage
Based upon a patch from Patrick McHardy.
The fib_rules netlink attribute policy introduced in 2.6.19 broke
userspace compatibilty. When specifying a rule with "from all"
or "to all", iproute adds a zero byte long netlink attribute,
but the policy requires all addresses to have a size equal to
sizeof(struct in_addr)/sizeof(struct in6_addr), resulting in a
validation error.
Check attribute length of FRA_SRC/FRA_DST in the generic framework
by letting the family specific rules implementation provide the
length of an address. Report an error if address length is non
zero but no address attribute is provided. Fix actual bug by
checking address length for non-zero instead of relying on
availability of attribute.

[IPV6]: Fix routing round-robin locking.
As per RFC2461, section 6.3.6, item #2, when no routers on the
matching list are known to be reachable or probably reachable we
do round robin on those available routes so that we make sure
to probe as many of them as possible to detect when one becomes
reachable faster.
Each routing table has a rwlock protecting the tree and the linked
list of routes at each leaf. The round robin code executes during
lookup and thus with the rwlock taken as a reader. A small local
spinlock tries to provide protection but this does not work at all
for two reasons:
1) The round-robin list manipulation, as coded, goes like this (with
read lock held):
walk routes finding head and tail
spin_lock();
rotate list using head and tail
spin_unlock();
While one thread is rotating the list, another thread can
end up with stale values of head and tail and then proceed
to corrupt the list when it gets the lock. This ends up causing
the OOPS in fib6_add() later onthat many people have been hitting.
2) All the other code paths that run with the rwlock held as
a reader do not expect the list to change on them, they
expect it to remain completely fixed while they hold the
lock in that way.
So, simply stated, it is impossible to implement this correctly using
a manipulation of the list without violating the rwlock locking
semantics.
Reimplement using a per-fib6_node round-robin pointer. This way we
don't need to manipulate the list at all, and since the round-robin
pointer can only ever point to real existing entries we don't need
to perform any locking on the changing of the round-robin pointer
itself. We only need to reset the round-robin pointer to NULL when
the entry it is pointing to is removed.
The idea is from Thomas Graf and it is very similar to how this
was implemented before the advanced router selection code when in.

Currently we have a confused udelay implementation.
* __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64
* our implementation requires usecs as arg
* it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h
Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some
x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper.
To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed - that's
why UML seems to work most times.
Fix this with a simple udelay implementation.

x86_64 needs some TLS fixes. What was missing was remembering the child
thread id during clone and stuffing it into the child during each context
switch.
The %fs value is stored separately in the thread structure since the host
controls what effect it has on the actual register file. The host also needs
to store it in its own thread struct, so we need the value kept outside the
register file.
arch_prctl_skas was fixed to call PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL appropriately. There is
some saving and restoring of registers in the ARCH_SET_* cases so that the
correct set of registers are changed on the host and restored to the process
when it runs again.

[SPARC64]: Get DEBUG_PAGEALLOC working again.
We have to make sure to use base-pagesize TLB entries even during the
early transition period where we need TLB miss handling but don't have
the kernel page tables setup yet for the linear region.
Also, it is necessary therefore to not use the 4MB TSB for these
translations, and instead use the normal kernel TSB. This allows us
to also get rid of the 4MB tsb for debug builds which shrinks the
kernel a little bit.

[NETFILTER]: conntrack: fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup endless loops
Fix {nf,ip}_ct_iterate_cleanup unconfirmed list handling:
- unconfirmed entries can not be killed manually, they are removed on
confirmation or final destruction of the conntrack entry, which means
we might iterate forever without making forward progress.
This can happen in combination with the conntrack event cache, which
holds a reference to the conntrack entry, which is only released when
the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different
packet is handled.
- taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the
locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and
another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry
What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash
table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be
destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped.
Since unconfirmed entries haven't even entered the hash yet, simply mark
them as dying and skip confirmation based on that.

throttle_vm_writeout() is designed to wait for the dirty levels to subside.
But if the caller holds IO or FS locks, we might be holding up that writeout.
So change it to take a single nap to give other devices a chance to clean some

This is a fix of regression, which triggered by ~2.6.16.
Patch with name ufs-directory-and-page-cache-from-blocks-to-pages.patch: in
additional to conversation from block to page cache mechanism added new
checks of directory integrity, one of them that directory entry do not
across directory chunks.
But some kinds of UFS: OpenStep UFS and Apple UFS (looks like these are the
same filesystems) have different directory chunk size, then common
UFSes(BSD and Solaris UFS).
So this patch adds ability to works with variable size of directory chunks,
and set it for ufstype=openstep to right size.
Tested on darwin ufs.

on a constant"
Revert "[PATCH] LOG2: Alter get_order() so that it can make use of ilog2() on a constant"
This reverts commit 39d61db0edb34d60b83c5e0d62d0e906578cc707.
The commit was buggy in multiple ways:
- the conversion to ilog2() was incorrect to begin with
- it tested the wrong #defines, so on all architectures but FRV you'd
never see the bug except for constant arguments.
- the new "get_order()" macro used its arguments multiple times, and
didn't even parenthesize them properly
- despite the comments, it was not true that you could use it for
constant initializers, since not all architectures even use the
generic page.h header file.
All of the problems are individually fixable, but it all boils down to:
better just revert it, and re-do it from scratch.

mmc: Power quirk for ENE controllers
Support for these devices was broken for 2.6.18-rc1 and later by commit
146ad66eac836c0b976c98f428d73e1f6a75270d, which added voltage level support.
This restores the previous behaviour for these devices by ensuring that when
the voltage is changed, only one write to set the voltage is performed.
It may be that both writes are needed if the voltage is being changed between
two non-zero values or that it's safe to ensure that only one write is done
if the hardware only supports one voltage; I don't know whether either is the
case nor can I test since I have only the one SD reader (1524:0550), and it
supports just the one voltage.

When the last thread of nfsd exits, it shuts down all related sockets.
It currently uses svc_close_socket to do this, but that only is
immediately effective if the socket is not SK_BUSY.
If the socket is busy - i.e. if a request has arrived that has not yet
been processes - svc_close_socket is not effective and the shutdown
process spins.
So create a new svc_force_close_socket which removes the SK_BUSY flag
is set and then calls svc_close_socket.
Also change some open-codes loops in svc_destroy to use
list_for_each_entry_safe.

md/bitmap tracks how many active write requests are pending on blocks
associated with each bit in the bitmap, so that it knows when it can
clear the bit (when count hits zero).
The counter has 14 bits of space, so if there are ever more than 16383,
we cannot cope.
Currently the code just calles BUG_ON as "all" drivers have request queue
limits much smaller than this.
However is seems that some don't. Apparently some multipath configurations
can allow more than 16383 concurrent write requests.
So, in this unlikely situation, instead of calling BUG_ON we now wait
for the count to drop down a bit. This requires a new wait_queue_head,
some waiting code, and a wakeup call.
Tested by limiting the counter to 20 instead of 16383 (writes go a lot slower
in that case...).

If you lose this race, it can iput a socket inode twice and you
get a BUG in fs/inode.c
When I added the option for user-space to close a socket,
I added some cruft to svc_delete_socket so that I could call
that function when closing a socket per user-space request.
This was the wrong thing to do. I should have just set SK_CLOSE
and let normal mechanisms do the work.
Not only wrong, but buggy. The locking is all wrong and it openned
up a race where-by a socket could be closed twice.
So this patch:
Introduces svc_close_socket which sets SK_CLOSE then either leave
the close up to a thread, or calls svc_delete_socket if it can
get SK_BUSY.
Adds a bias to sk_busy which is removed when SK_DEAD is set,
This avoid races around shutting down the socket.
Changes several 'spin_lock' to 'spin_lock_bh' where the _bh
was missing.
