arm64: flush TLS registers during exec

2014-09-26T09:23:43Z

commit eb35bdd7bca29a13c8ecd44e6fd747a84ce675db upstream. Nathan reports that we leak TLS information from the parent context during an exec, as we don't clear the TLS registers when flushing the thread state. This patch updates the flushing code so that we: (1) Unconditionally zero the tpidr_el0 register (since this is fully context switched for native tasks and zeroed for compat tasks) (2) Zero the tp_value state in thread_info before clearing the tpidrr0_el0 register for compat tasks (since this is only writable by the set_tls compat syscall and therefore not fully switched). A missing compiler barrier is also added to the compat set_tls syscall. Acked-by: Nathan Lynch Reported-by: Nathan Lynch Signed-off-by: Will Deacon Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby

aio: add missing smp_rmb() in read_events_ring

2014-09-26T09:23:43Z

commit 2ff396be602f10b5eab8e73b24f20348fa2de159 upstream. We ran into a case on ppc64 running mariadb where io_getevents would return zeroed out I/O events. After adding instrumentation, it became clear that there was some missing synchronization between reading the tail pointer and the events themselves. This small patch fixes the problem in testing. Thanks to Zach for helping to look into this, and suggesting the fix. Signed-off-by: Jeff Moyer Signed-off-by: Benjamin LaHaise Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby

ibmveth: Fix endian issues with rx_no_buffer statistic

2014-09-26T09:23:43Z

commit cbd5228199d8be45d895d9d0cc2b8ce53835fc21 upstream. Hidden away in the last 8 bytes of the buffer_list page is a solitary statistic. It needs to be byte swapped or else ethtool -S will produce numbers that terrify the user. Since we do this in multiple places, create a helper function with a comment explaining what is going on.

libata: widen Crucial M550 blacklist matching

2014-09-26T09:23:42Z

commit 2a13772a144d2956a7fedd18685921d0a9b8b783 upstream. Crucial M550 may cause data corruption on queued trims and is blacklisted. The pattern used for it fails to match 1TB one as the capacity section will be four chars instead of three. Widen the pattern.

drm/radeon: enable bapm by default on desktop TN/RL boards

2014-09-18T14:40:02Z

commit 0c78a44964db3d483b0c09a8236e0fe123aa9cfc upstream. bapm enabled the GPU and CPU to share TDP headroom. It was disabled by default since some laptops hung when it was enabled in conjunction with dpm. It seems to be stable on desktop boards and fixes hangs on boot with dpm enabled on certain boards, so enable it by default on desktop boards. bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72921 Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby
