* revert "percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set"Andrew Morton2008-12-103-17/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert commit e8ced39d5e8911c662d4d69a342b9d053eaaac4e Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Date: Fri Jul 11 19:27:31 2008 -0400 percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set As described in revert "percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()" the new percpu_counter_sum_and_set() is racy against updates to the cpu-local accumulators on other CPUs. Revert that change. This means that ext4 will be slow again. But correct. Reported-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Cc: "David S.

* revert "percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()"Andrew Morton2008-12-103-8/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert commit 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354 Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Date: Thu Oct 9 12:50:59 2008 -0400 percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set() Before this patch we had the following: percpu_counter_sum(): return the percpu_counter's value percpu_counter_sum_and_set(): return the percpu_counter's value, copying that value into the central value and zeroing the per-cpu counters before returning. After this patch, percpu_counter_sum_and_set() has gone, and percpu_counter_sum() gets the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set() functionality. Problem is, as Eric points out, the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set() functionality was racy and wrong. It zeroes out counters on "other" cpus, without holding any locks which will prevent races agaist updates from those other CPUS. This patch reverts 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354. This means that percpu_counter_sum_and_set() still has the race, but percpu_counter_sum() does not. Note that this is not a simple revert - ext4 has since started using percpu_counter_sum() for its dirty_blocks counter as well. Note that this revert patch changes percpu_counter_sum() semantics. Before the patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will bring the counter's central counter mostly up-to-date, so a following percpu_counter_read() will return a close value. After this patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will leave the counter's central accumulator unaltered, so a subsequent call to percpu_counter_read() can now return a significantly inaccurate result. If there is any code in the tree which was introduced after e8ced39d5e8911c662d4d69a342b9d053eaaac4e was merged, and which depends upon the new percpu_counter_sum() semantics, that code will break.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On ARMv6 and later CPUs, it is possible for userspace processes to get stuck on a misaligned load or store due to the "ignore fault" setting; unlike previous CPUs, retrying the instruction without the 'A' bit set does not always cause the load to succeed. We have no real option but to default to fixing up alignment faults on these CPUs, and having the CPU fix up those misaligned accesses which it can.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8ec53663d2698076468b3e1edc4e1b418bd54de3 ("[ARM] Improve non-executable support") added support for detecting non-executable stack binaries. One of the things it does is to make READ_IMPLIES_EXEC be set in ->personality if we are running on a CPU that doesn't support the XN ("Execute Never") page table bit or if we are running a binary that needs an executable stack. This exposed a latent bug in ARM's asm/processor.h due to which we'll end up placing the stack at a very low address, where it will bump into the heap on any application that uses significant amount of stack or heap or both, causing many interesting crashes. Fix this by testing the ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT bit in ->personality instead of testing for equality against PER_LINUX_32BIT.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 0c65f459ce6c intended to fix truncation issues with fls() on ARMv5+ by renaming it to __fls() and wrapping it into a C function. However that didn't take into account the fact that __fls() already already had different semantics in the kernel. Let's move the __fls() code into fls() function directly, and redefine __fls() with the appropriate semantics. While at it, bring a generic __fls() definition for pre ARMv5 too.

Check if they are null and avoid checks in that case.

Most reporters of the issue have confirmed that turning MSI back on fixes things, and given the difficulties experienced in getting reliable MSI working on Linux, it's believable that the errata was about software issues and not actual hardware issues.

Without this, all machine checks become fatal due to loss of context when entering the exception handler.

The PLCP header being 5 bytes long, the 80211 header will start unaligned from an aligned skb buffer. As per Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt, we must replace the not unaligned() safe compare_ether_addr() with memcmp() to protect architectures that require alignment.

Concerned that whilst it was safe to assume that unalignment was the norm for the zd1211rw, and take preventative measures, it may not be the case or acceptable to use the easy fix of changing the call to memcmp(). My research however indicated that it was OK to do this, as there are a few instances where memcmp() is the preferred mechanism for doing mac address comparisons throughout the module.

The patch also removes a valid condition check that ipw_tx_skb() cannot be called if device is not in STATUS_ASSOCIATED state. But netif_carrier_off() doesn't guarantee netdev->hard_start_xmit won't be called because linkwatch event is handled in a delayed workqueue. This caused a kernel oops reported by Frank Seidel: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=397390 This patch fixes the problem by moving the STATUS_ASSOCIATED check back to ipw_tx_skb(). It also adds a missing netif_carrier_off() call to ipw_disassociate().

Since the keys are not removed properly on suspend by mac80211 this may result in exhausting key table on resume leading to memory corruption during removal This patch also fixes a memory corruption problem reported in http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=122641417231586&w=2 and tracked in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12040. When the key is removed a second time the offset is set to 255 - this index is not valid for the ucode_key_table and corrupts the eeprom pointer (which is 255 bits from ucode_key_table).
