USB: add NO_D3_DURING_SLEEP flag and revert 151b61284776be2

2012-06-22T18:37:13Z

commit c2fb8a3fa25513de8fedb38509b1f15a5bbee47b upstream. This patch (as1558) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers: The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers. Users have been forced to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep. After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3 power state. Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3 during system sleep. The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present, and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set. Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend. However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote wakeup requests while the system is asleep. Hence USB wakeup is not functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state of affairs. A similar patch has already been applied as commit 151b61284776be2d6f02d48c23c3625678960b97 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computers). The patch supersedes that one and reverts it. There are two differences: The old patch added the flag at the USB level; this patch adds it at the PCI level. The old patch applied to all chipsets with the same vendor, subsystem vendor, and product IDs; this patch makes an exception for a known-good system (based on DMI information).

swap: fix shmem swapping when more than 8 areas

2012-06-22T18:36:55Z

commit 9b15b817f3d62409290fd56fe3cbb076a931bb0a upstream. Minchan Kim reports that when a system has many swap areas, and tmpfs swaps out to the ninth or more, shmem_getpage_gfp()'s attempts to read back the page cannot locate it, and the read fails with -ENOMEM. Whoops. Yes, I blindly followed read_swap_header()'s pte_to_swp_entry( swp_entry_to_pte()) technique for determining maximum usable swap offset, without stopping to realize that that actually depends upon the pte swap encoding shifting swap offset to the higher bits and truncating it there. Whereas our radix_tree swap encoding leaves offset in the lower bits: it's swap "type" (that is, index of swap area) that was truncated. Fix it by reducing the SWP_TYPE_SHIFT() in swapops.h, and removing the broken radix_to_swp_entry(swp_to_radix_entry()) from read_swap_header(). This does not reduce the usable size of a swap area any further, it leaves it as claimed when making the original commit: no change from 3.0 on x86_64, nor on i386 without PAE; but 3.0's 512GB is reduced to 128GB per swapfile on i386 with PAE. It's not a change I would have risked five years ago, but with x86_64 supported for ten years, I believe it's appropriate now. Hmm, and what if some architecture implements its swap pte with offset encoded below type? That would equally break the maximum usable swap offset check. Happily, they all follow the same tradition of encoding offset above type, but I'll prepare a check on that for next.

libata: add a host flag to ignore detected ATA devices

2012-06-17T18:21:29Z

commit db63a4c8115a0bb904496e1cdd3e7488e68b0d06 upstream. Where devices are visible via more than one host we sometimes wish to indicate that cirtain devices should be ignored on a specific host. Add a host flag indicating that this host wishes to ignore ATA specific devices. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik Cc: Victor Miasnikov Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

module_param: stop double-calling parameters.

2012-06-17T18:21:23Z

commit ae82fdb1406ad41d68f07027fe31f2d35ba22a90 upstream. Commit 026cee0086fe1df4cf74691cf273062cc769617d "params: _initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module parameters to level 0. And we call those level 0 calls where we used to, early in start_kernel(). We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled module_params before the corresponding initcall. Unfortunately level 0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice. (Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does). Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls. Reported-by: Benoît Thébaudeau Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

radix-tree: fix contiguous iterator

2012-06-09T15:36:17Z

commit fffaee365fded09f9ebf2db19066065fa54323c3 upstream. This patch fixes bug in macro radix_tree_for_each_contig(). If radix_tree_next_slot() sees NULL in next slot it returns NULL, but following radix_tree_next_chunk() switches iterating into next chunk. As result iterating becomes non-contiguous and breaks vfs "splice" and all its users.

skb: avoid unnecessary reallocations in __skb_cow

2012-06-09T15:36:15Z

[ Upstream commit 617c8c11236716dcbda877e764b7bf37c6fd8063 ] At the beginning of __skb_cow, headroom gets set to a minimum of NET_SKB_PAD. This causes unnecessary reallocations if the buffer was not cloned and the headroom is just below NET_SKB_PAD, but still more than the amount requested by the caller. This was showing up frequently in my tests on VLAN tx, where vlan_insert_tag calls skb_cow_head(skb, VLAN_HLEN). Locally generated packets should have enough headroom, and for forward paths, we already have NET_SKB_PAD bytes of headroom, so we don't need to add any extra space here.

mmc: sdio: avoid spurious calls to interrupt handlers

2012-06-01T07:18:26Z

commit bbbc4c4d8c5face097d695f9bf3a39647ba6b7e7 upstream. Commit 06e8935feb ("optimized SDIO IRQ handling for single irq") introduced some spurious calls to SDIO function interrupt handlers, such as when the SDIO IRQ thread is started, or the safety check performed upon a system resume. Let's add a flag to perform the optimization only when a real interrupt is signaled by the host driver and we know there is no point confirming it.

usbhid: prevent deadlock during timeout

2012-06-01T07:18:17Z

commit 8815bb09af21316aeb5f8948b24ac62181670db2 upstream. On some HCDs usb_unlink_urb() can directly call the completion handler. That limits the spinlocks that can be taken in the handler to locks not held while calling usb_unlink_urb() To prevent a race with resubmission, this patch exposes usbcore's infrastructure for blocking submission, uses it and so drops the lock without causing a race in usbhid.
