When fixing up invalid years rtc_read_alarm() was calling rtc_valid_tm() as a boolean but rtc_valid_tm() returns zero on success or a negative number if the time is not valid so the test was inverted.

Problem 1 (see patch below): vc_tab_stop is declared as an array of 8 unsigned ints in struct vc_data in include/linux/console_struct.h . In drivers/char/vt.c only 5 of these 8 unsigned ints get initialized leading to unintended tabulator placement on displays with more than 160 columns text. Problem 2 (open): Upcoming displays will have more than 256 columns of text leading to invalid memory access in drivers/char/vt.c during tabulator calculations: if (vc->vc_tab_stop[vc->vc_x >> 5] & (1 << (vc->vc_x & 31))) break; Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Kroworsch <wolfgang@kroworsch.de> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

__scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list pointed to by the scm_cookie argument. Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again. There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur. The idea for how to fix this is from Linus. Basically, we do all of the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list objects hit by an fput(). Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we keep running the list until it is empty.

Peter Moulder has pointed out that there is a slight chance that a negative value might be passed to jiffies_to_msecs() in ata_scsi_park_show(). This is fixed by saving the value of jiffies in a local variable, thus also reducing code since the volatile variable jiffies is accessed only once.

All three flavors of sata_nv's are different in how their hardreset behaves. * generic: Hardreset is not reliable. Link often doesn't come online after hardreset. * nf2/3: A little bit better - link comes online with longer debounce timing. However, nf2/3 can't reliable wait for the first D2H Register FIS, so it can't wait for device readiness or classify the device after hardreset. Follow-up SRST required. * ck804: Hardreset finally works. The core layer change to prefer hardreset and follow up changes exposed the above issues and caused various detection regressions for all three flavors. This patch, hopefully, fixes all the known issues and should make sata_nv error handling more reliable. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

Promise ATA engines need to be reset when errors occur. That's currently done for errors detected by sata_promise itself, but it's not done for errors like timeouts detected outside of the low-level driver. The effect of this omission is that a timeout tends to result in a sequence of failed COMRESETs after which libata EH gives up and disables the port. At that point the port's ATA engine hangs and even reloading the driver will not resume it. To fix this, make sata_promise override ->hardreset on SATA ports with code which calls pdc_reset_port() on the port in question before calling libata's hardreset. PATA ports don't use ->hardreset, so for those we override ->softreset instead. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

The current code read nothing but zeros on big-endian (wrong part of the 32bits). This caused poor performance on big-endian machines.

Lennert Buytenhek authored
The mv643xx_eth mii bus implementation uses wait_event_timeout() to wait for SMI completion interrupts. If wait_event_timeout() would return zero, mv643xx_eth would conclude that the SMI access timed out, but this is not necessarily true -- wait_event_timeout() can also return zero in the case where the SMI completion interrupt did happen in time but where it took longer than the requested timeout for the process performing the SMI access to be scheduled again. This would lead to occasional SMI access timeouts when the system would be under heavy load. The fix is to ignore the return value of wait_event_timeout(), and to re-check the SMI done bit after wait_event_timeout() returns to determine whether or not the SMI access timed out.

While writing a new tracer, I had a bug where I caused the ring-buffer to recurse in a bad way. The bug was with the tracer I was writing and not the ring-buffer itself. But it took a long time to find the problem. This patch adds paranoid checks into the ring-buffer infrastructure that will catch bugs of this nature. Note: I put the bug back in the tracer and this patch showed the error nicely and prevented the lockup. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: ia64+tracing build fix When a function is kprobed, the return address is set to the kprobe_trampoline, or something similar. This caused the output of the trace to look confusing when the parent seemed to be this "kprobe_trampoline" function. To fix this, Abhishek Sagar added a test of the instruction pointer of the parent to see if it matched the kprobe_trampoline. If it did, the output would print a "[unknown/kretprobe'd]" instead. Unfortunately, not all archs do this the same way, and the trampoline function may not be exported, which causes failures in builds. This patch will compare the name instead of the pointer to see if it matches. This prevents us from depending on a function from being exported, and should work on all archs. The worst that can happen is that an arch might use a different name and then we go back to the confusing output. At least the arch will still build.

While adding support for MIGRATE/KMADDRESS in strongSwan (as specified in draft-ebalard-mext-pfkey-enhanced-migrate-00), Andreas Steffen noticed that XFRMA_KMADDRESS attribute passed to userland contains the local address twice (remote provides local address instead of remote one). This bug in copy_to_user_kmaddress() affects only key managers that use native XFRM interface (key managers that use PF_KEY are not affected). For the record, the bug was in the initial changeset I posted which added support for KMADDRESS (13c1d189 'xfrm: MIGRATE enhancements (draft-ebalard-mext-pfkey-enhanced-migrate)').
