commit ff8324df upstream. This patch (as1290) adds some missing tests. serial_down() isn't supposed to do anything if the hardware hasn't been initialized, and serial_close() isn't supposed to do anything if the tty has gotten a hangup (because serial_hangup() takes care of shutting down the hardware). The patch also updates and adds a few debugging lines. Signed-off-by:

commit 74556123 upstream. This patch (as1289) renames serial_do_down() to serial_down() and serial_do_free() to serial_release(). It also adds a missing call to tty_shutdown() in serial_release(). Signed-off-by:

commit 7e29bb4b upstream. This patch (as1288) fixes the initialization logic in serial_install(). A new tty always needs to have a termios initialized no matter what, not just in the case where the lower driver will override the termios settings. Signed-off-by:

commit cc56cd01 upstream. This patch (as1287) makes serial_install() be reponsible for acquiring references to the usb_serial structure and the driver module when a tty is first used. This is more sensible than having serial_open() do it, because a tty can be opened many times whereas it is installed only once, when it is created. (Not to mention that these actions are reversed when the tty is released, not when it is closed.) Finally, it is at install time that the TTY core takes its own reference to the usb_serial module, so it is only fitting that we should act the same way in regard to the lower-level serial driver.

commit 8bc2c1b2 upstream. This patch (as1286) changes usb_serial_get_by_index(). Now the routine will check whether the serial device has been disconnected; if it has then the return value will be NULL. If the device hasn't been disconnected then the routine will return with serial->disc_mutex held, so that the caller can use the structure without fear of racing against driver unloads. This permits the scope of table_mutex in destroy_serial() to be reduced. Instead of protecting the entire function, it suffices to protect the part that actually uses serial_table[], i.e., the call to return_serial(). There's no longer any danger of the refcount being incremented after it reaches 0 (which was the reason for having the large scope previously), because it can't reach 0 until the serial device has been disconnected. Also, the patch makes serial_install() check that serial is non-NULL before attempting to use it. Signed-off-by:

commit f5b0953a upstream. This patch (as1285) rearranges the subroutines in usb-serial.c concerned with tty lifetimes into a more logical order: install, open, hangup, close, release. It also updates the formatting of the kerneldoc comments. Signed-off-by:

commit 41bd34dd upstream. This patch (as1284) changes the referencing of the usb_serial and usb_serial_port structures in usb-serial.c. It's not feasible to make the port structures keep a reference to the serial structure, because the ports need to remain in existence when serial is released -- quite a few of the drivers expect this. Consequently taking a reference to the port when the device file is open is insufficient; such a reference would not pin serial. To fix this, we now take a reference to serial when the device file is opened. The final put_device() for the ports occurs in destroy_serial(), so that the ports will last as long as they are needed. The patch initializes all the port devices, including those in the unused "fake" ports. This makes the code more uniform because they can all be released in the same way. The error handling code in usb_serial_probe() is much simplified by this approach; instead of freeing everything by hand we can use a single usb_serial_put() call. Also simplified is the port-release mechanism. Instead of being two separate routines, port_release() and port_free() can be combined into one. Signed-off-by:

commit d2b39182 upstream. The USB layer uses tty_hangup to deal with unplugs of the physical hardware (analogous to loss of carrier) and then frees the resources. However the tty_hangup is asynchronous. As the hangup can sleep we can use tty_vhangup which is the non async version to avoid freeing resources too early. Signed-off-by:

commit 7ca0ff9a upstream. Now we are extracting out methods for shutdown and the like we can add a proper tty_port_close method that knows all the innards of the tty closing process and hides the lot from the caller. At some point in the future this will be paired with a similar open() helper and the drivers can stick to hardware management. Signed-off-by:

commit 2023c610 upstream. This patch (as1271) affects when new devices get linked into their bus's list of devices. Currently this happens after probing, and it doesn't happen at all if probing fails. Clearly this is wrong, because at that point quite a few symbolic links have already been created in sysfs. We are committed to adding the device, so it should be linked into the bus's list regardless. In addition, this needs to happen before the uevent announcing the new device gets issued. Otherwise user programs might try to access the device before it has been added to the bus. To fix both these problems, the patch moves the call to klist_add_tail() forward from bus_attach_device() to bus_add_device(). Since bus_attach_device() now does nothing but probe for drivers, it has been renamed to bus_probe_device(). And lastly, the kerneldoc is updated. Signed-off-by:

netfilter: nf_nat: fix inverted logic for persistent NAT mappings Upstream commit cce5a5c3: Kernel 2.6.30 introduced a patch [1] for the persistent option in the netfilter SNAT target. This is exactly what we need here so I had a quick look at the code and noticed that the patch is wrong. The logic is simply inverted. The patch below fixes this. Also note that because of this the default behavior of the SNAT target has changed since kernel 2.6.30 as it now ignores the destination IP in choosing the source IP for nating (which should only be the case if the persistent option is set).

(cherry picked from commit dc7e795e) This reverts commit 6c20e1442bb1c62914bb85b7f4a38973d2a423ba. To my understanding, it became obsolete with the advent of the more robust check in mmu_alloc_roots (89da4ff17f). Moreover, it prevents the conceptually safe pattern 1. set sregs 2. register mem-slots 3. run vcpu by setting a sticky triple fault during step 1. Signed-off-by:

Linus Torvalds authored
commit 202c4675 upstream. Commit ac89a917 ("pty: don't limit the writes to 'pty_space()' inside 'pty_write()'") removed the pty_space() checking, in order to let the regular tty buffer code limit the buffering itself. That was all good, but as a subtle side effect it meant that we'd be doing a tty_wakeup() even in the case where the buffers were all filled up, and didn't actually make any progress on the write. Which sounds innocuous, but it interacts very badly with the ppp_async code, which has an infinite loop in ppp_async_push() that tries to push out data to the tty. When we call tty_wakeup(), that loop ends up thinking that progress was made (see the subtle interactions between XMIT_WAKEUP and 'tty_stuffed' for details). End result: one unhappy ppp user. Fixed by noticing when tty_insert_flip_string() didn't actually do anything, and then not doing any more processing (including, very much not calling tty_wakeup()). Bisected-and-tested-by:

fixed upstream in commit b7058842 in a different way The length of the to-copy data structure is currently stored in a signed integer.

fixed upstream in commit b7058842 in a different way The ax25 code tried to use if (optlen < sizeof(int)) return -EINVAL; as a security check against optlen being negative (or zero) in the set socket option. Unfortunately, "sizeof(int)" is an unsigned property, with the result that the whole comparison is done in unsigned, letting negative values slip through. This patch changes this to if (optlen < (int)sizeof(int)) return -EINVAL; so that the comparison is done as signed, and negative values get properly caught. Signed-off-by:

commit 31b239ad upstream. Commit a5bfc471 dropped explicit pci_intx() manipulation from ahci because it seemed unnecessary and ahci doesn't seem to be the right place to be tweaking it if it were. This was largely okay but there are exceptions. There was one on an embedded platform which was fixed via firmware and now bko#14124 reports it on a HP DL320. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14124 I still think this isn't something libata drivers should be caring about (the only ones which are calling pci_intx() explicitly are libata ones and one other driver) but for now reverting the change seems to be the right thing to do.

commit 481a8199 upstream. When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08 for 10 times. The echo of CAN frames is done from process context and softirq context only. Therefore the usage of netif_rx() was wrong (for years). This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has to be used from process/softirq context. It also adds a missing comment that can_send() must no be used from hardirq context.

commit 886e3b7f upstream. On setting up the callback to the client, we attempt to use the same authentication flavor the client did. We find an rpc cred to use by calling rpcauth_lookup_credcache(), which assumes that the given authentication flavor has a credentials cache. However, this is not required to be true--in particular, auth_null does not use one. Instead, we should call the auth's lookup_cred() method. Without this, a client attempting to mount using nfsv4 and auth_null triggers a null dereference. Signed-off-by:

commit e517a5e9 upstream. Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had serious stability issues. Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to work around much of the problem. Some failure remained -- easily visible by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla. The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the flush page was mapped uncached. As a result, the writes trying to clear the writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything! The wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted to get flushed, but not always. By removing the setting of the page to UC and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the desired behavior with no wbinvd. This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM. Signed-off-by:
