fbcon uses workqueues and it has no real dependency of scheduling these on the cpu which scheduled them. On a idle system, it is observed that and idle cpu wakes up many times just to service this work. It would be better if we can schedule it on a cpu which the scheduler believes to be the most appropriate one. This patch replaces system_wq with system_power_efficient_wq.

2013-07-18workqueues: Introduce new flag WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT for power oriented workqueuesViresh Kumar
Workqueues can be performance or power-oriented. Currently, most workqueues are bound to the CPU they were created on. This gives good performance (due to cache effects) at the cost of potentially waking up otherwise idle cores (Idle from scheduler's perspective. Which may or may not be physically idle) just to process some work. To save power, we can allow the work to be rescheduled on a core that is already awake. Workqueues created with the WQ_UNBOUND flag will allow some power savings. However, we don't change the default behaviour of the system. To enable power-saving behaviour, a new config option CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT needs to be turned on. This option can also be overridden by the workqueue.power_efficient boot parameter. tj: Updated config description and comments. Renamed CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT to CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT_DEFAULT.

2013-06-30powerpc/pci: Improve device hotplug initializationGuenter Roeck
Commit 37f02195b (powerpc/pci: fix PCI-e devices rescan issue on powerpc platform) fixes a problem with interrupt and DMA initialization on hot plugged devices. With this commit, interrupt and DMA initialization for hot plugged devices is handled in the pci device enable function. This approach has a couple of drawbacks. First, it creates two code paths for device initialization, one for hot plugged devices and another for devices known during the initial PCI scan. Second, the initialization code for hot plugged devices is only called when the device is enabled, ie typically in the probe function. Also, the platform specific setup code is called each time pci_enable_device() is called, not only once during device discovery, meaning it is actually called multiple times, once for devices discovered during the initial scan and again each time a driver is re-loaded. The visible result is that interrupt pins are only assigned to hot plugged devices when the device driver is loaded. Effectively this changes the PCI probe API, since pci_dev->irq and the device's dma configuration will now only be valid after pci_enable() was called at least once. A more subtle change is that platform specific PCI device setup is moved from device discovery into the driver's probe function, more specifically into the pci_enable_device() call. To fix the inconsistencies, add new function pcibios_add_device. Call pcibios_setup_device from pcibios_setup_bus_devices if device setup is not complete, and from pcibios_add_device if bus setup is complete. With this change, device setup code is moved back into device initialization, and called exactly once for both static and hot plugged devices. [ This also fixes a regression introduced by the above patch which causes dev->irq to be overwritten under some cirumstances after MSIs have been enabled for the device which leads to crashes due to the MSI core "hijacking" dev->irq to store the base MSI number and not the LSI. --BenH ] Cc: Yuanquan Chen <Yuanquan.Chen@freescale.com> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Hiroo Matsumoto <matsumoto.hiroo@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2013-06-29UBIFS: fix a horrid bugArtem Bityutskiy
Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'. This means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses it, and this is a very bad bug: not only 'ubifs_readdir()' can return garbage, but this may corrupt memory and lead to all kinds of problems like crashes an security holes. This patch fixes the problem by using the 'file->f_version' field, which '->llseek()' always unconditionally sets to zero. We set it to 1 in 'ubifs_readdir()' and whenever we detect that it became 0, we know there was a seek and it is time to clear the state saved in 'file->private_data'. I tested this patch by writing a user-space program which runds readdir and seek in parallell. I could easily crash the kernel without these patches, but could not crash it with these patches.

2013-06-29UBIFS: prepare to fix a horrid bugArtem Bityutskiy
Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'. First of all, this means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses it. But this particular patch does not fix the problem. This patch is only a preparation, and the fix will follow next. In this patch we make 'ubifs_readdir()' stop using 'file->f_pos' directly, because 'file->f_pos' can be changed by '->llseek()' at any point. This may lead 'ubifs_readdir()' to returning inconsistent data: directory entry names may correspond to incorrect file positions. So here we introduce a local variable 'pos', read 'file->f_pose' once at very the beginning, and then stick to 'pos'. The result of this is that when 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' changes 'file->f_pos' while we are in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()', the latter "wins".

2013-06-28mn10300: Use early_param() to parse "mem=" parameterAkira Takeuchi
This fixes the problem that "init=" options may not be passed to kernel correctly. parse_mem_cmdline() of mn10300 arch gets rid of "mem=" string from redboot_command_line. Then init_setup() parses the "init=" options from static_command_line, which is a copy of redboot_command_line, and keeps the pointer to the init options in execute_command variable. Since the commit 026cee0 upstream (params: <level>_initcall-like kernel parameters), static_command_line becomes overwritten by saved_command_line at do_initcall_level(). Notice that saved_command_line is a command line which includes "mem=" string. As a result, execute_command may point to weird string by the length of "mem=" parameter. I noticed this problem when using the command line like this: mem=128M console=ttyS0,115200 init=/bin/sh Here is the processing flow of command line parameters. start_kernel() setup_arch(&command_line) parse_mem_cmdline(cmdline_p) * strcpy(boot_command_line, redboot_command_line); * Remove "mem=xxx" from redboot_command_line. * *cmdline_p = redboot_command_line; setup_command_line(command_line) <-- command_line is redboot_command_line * strcpy(saved_command_line, boot_command_line) * strcpy(static_command_line, command_line) parse_early_param() strlcpy(tmp_cmdline, boot_command_line, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE); parse_early_options(tmp_cmdline); parse_args("early options", cmdline, NULL, 0, 0, 0, do_early_param); parse_args("Booting ..", static_command_line, ...); init_setup() <-- save the pointer in execute_command rest_init() kernel_thread(kernel_init, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_SIGHAND); At this point, execute_command points to "/bin/sh" string. kernel_init() kernel_init_freeable() do_basic_setup() do_initcalls() do_initcall_level() (*) strcpy(static_command_line, saved_command_line); Here, execute_command gets to point to "200" string !!

2013-06-27rbd: send snapshot context with writesJosh Durgin
Sending the right snapshot context with each write is required for snapshots to work. Due to the ordering of calls, the snapshot context is never set for any requests. This causes writes to the current version of the image to be reflected in all snapshots, which are supposed to be read-only. This happens because rbd_osd_req_format_write() sets the snapshot context based on obj_request->img_request. At this point, however, obj_request->img_request has not been set yet, to the snapshot context is set to NULL. Fix this by moving rbd_img_obj_request_add(), which sets obj_request->img_request, before the osd request formatting calls.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Found via trinity: If you connect up an ipv6 socket to an ipv4 mapped address then an ipv6 one, sendmsg() can croak because ip6_sk_dst_check() assumes the route cached in the socket is an ipv6 one. In this case there is an ipv4 route attached, so it gets stomped on. Reported by Dave Jones and Hannes Frederic Sowa, fixed by Eric Dumazet. 2) AF_KEY notifications leak some kernel memory to userspace, fix from Mathias Krause. 3) DLCI calls __dev_get_by_name() without proper locking, and dlci_del doesn't validate that the device being deleted is actually a DLCI one. Fixes from Li Zefan. 4) Length check on bluetooth l2cap information responses is wrong, each response type has a different lenth, so we should make sure it's in a given range rather than enforce one single valid length. From Jaganath Kanakkassery. 5) Receive FIFO overflow is really easy to trigger in stress scenerios in the sh_eth driver, but the event isn't being handled properly at all. Specifically, the mask of error interrupts doesn't include the event so we never clear it, resulting in the driver becomming wedged processing an interrupt that never gets cleared. Fix from Sergei Shtylyov. 6) qlcnic sleeps while holding a spinlock, use mdelay() instead of msleep(). From Shahed Shaikh. 7) Missing curly braces causes SIP netfilter NAT module to always drop packets. Fix from Balazs Peter Odor. 8) ipt_ULOG in netfilter passes the wrong value to timer setup, causing the timer to dereference crap when it fires. Fix from Gao Feng. 9) Missing RCU protection around txq->axq_acq traversal in ath_txq_schedule(). Fix from Felix Fietkau. 10) Idle state transition test in ath9k_htc_config() is reversed, fix from Sujith Manoharan. 11) IPV6 forwarding handles unicast Router Alert packets incorrectly. It tests the wrong option state. Previously opt->ra being non-zero indicated a router alert marking in the SKB, but now it's indicated by a bit in opt->flags. Fix from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki. 12) SKB leak in GRE tunnel GSO handling, from Eric Dumazet. 13) get_user_pages_fast() error handling in TUN and MACVTAP use the same local variable for the base index and the loop iterator for page traversal, oops!

2013-06-26net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.Nicolas Schichan
When the kernel (compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) is performing the rename of a network interface, it can end up waiting for a workqueue to complete. If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the devnet_rename_seq sequence. This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name()) and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt. The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying the access to give the writer process a chance to finish. The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the reader process in the contended case, but this is better than deadlocking the system.

We've been working on these fixes for the last couple of weeks and everyone involved appears to be reasonably comfortable with them now. The PM part is one fix for a cpufreq regression introduced recently - Fix for an ACPI dock regression introduced by the recent rework of the ACPI-based PCI hotplug code (acpiphp) that caused it to be initialized before the ACPI dock driver, which is incorrect (ACPI dock has to be initialized before acpiphp so that acpiphp can register PCI devices on docking stations with it for PCI hotplug on re-dock to work). From Jiang Liu. - Fix for PCI resources allocation in the ACPI-based PCI hotplug code (acpiphp) that makes it use the same PCI resources assignment rules during runtime hotplug that are used during boot (the BIOS' choices are now respected in both cases). This prevents PCI resource allocation failures during hotplug from happening in some cases. From Jiang Liu. - Fix for ordering and synchronization issues during hot-removal of PCI devices on docking stations. It makes the ACPI dock code carry out the PCI devices removal synchronously during undock instead of spawning a separate asynchronous work item to remove each of them without even bothering to wait for all those work items to complete. The hot-addition part is changed analogously. - Fix for a regression (introduced a few releases ago) that removed the code to register a hotplug notificaion handler for for ATA ports/devices inadvertently which prevented ATA bays hotplug from working. The missing code is added back with some improvements.
