The second argument of the probe method points to the amba_id structure, so it's better passed with the correct type. None of the current in-tree drivers uses the pointer, so they have only been checked for a clean compile. Change suggested by Russell King.

Eric Paris authored
get_event_name uses sprintf to fill a buffer declared on the stack. It fills the buffer 2 bytes at a time. What the code doesn't take into account is that sprintf(buf, "%02x", data) actually writes 3 bytes. 2 bytes for the data and then it nul terminates the string. Since we declare buf to be 40 characters long and then we write 40 bytes of data into buf sprintf is going to write 41 characters. The fix is to leave room in buf for the nul terminator.

The futex code installs a read only mapping via get_user_pages_fast() even if the futex op function has to modify user space data. The eventual fault was fixed up by futex_handle_fault() which walked the VMA with mmap_sem held. After the cleanup patches which removed the mmap_sem dependency of the futex code commit 4dc5b7a36a49eff97050894cf1b3a9a02523717 (futex: clean up fault logic) removed the private VMA walk logic from the futex code. This change results in a stale RO mapping which is not fixed up. Instead of reintroducing the previous fault logic we set up the mapping in get_user_pages_fast() read/write for all operations which modify user space data. Also handle private futexes in the same way and make the current unconditional access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE) depend on the futex op.

Due to the way that the WM8350 audio driver handles CODEC_ENA many of the WM8350 audio registers are marked as volatile when they aren't actually so. Allow the audio driver to see a cache of these values for inspection during interrupt context. To do this we need to stop satisfying any bits from volatile registers from cache - there's no real benefit from doing so anyway, we did the read already.

Martin Knoblauch reports that trying to build 2.6.30-rc6-git3 with RHEL4.3 userspace (gcc (GCC) 3.4.5 20051201 (Red Hat 3.4.5-2)) causes an internal compiler error (ICE): drivers/char/random.c: In function `get_random_int': drivers/char/random.c:1672: error: unrecognizable insn: (insn 202 148 150 0 /scratch/build/linux-2.6.30-rc6-git3/arch/x86/include/asm/tsc.h:23 (set (reg:SI 0 ax [91]) (subreg:SI (plus:DI (plus:DI (reg:DI 0 ax [88]) (subreg:DI (reg:SI 6 bp) 0)) (const_int -4 [0xfffffffffffffffc])) 0)) -1 (nil) (nil)) drivers/char/random.c:1672: internal compiler error: in extract_insn, at recog.c:2083 and after some debugging it turns out that it's due to the code trying to figure out the rough value of the current stack pointer by taking an address of an uninitialized variable and casting that to an integer. This is clearly a compiler bug, but it's not worth fighting - while the current stack kernel pointer might be somewhat hard to predict in user space, it's also not generally going to change for a lot of the call chains for a particular process. So just drop it, and mumble some incoherent curses at the compiler.

Jeff Layton authored
This is the third respin of the patch posted yesterday to fix the error handling in cifs_follow_symlink. It also includes a fix for a bogus NULL pointer check in CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink that Jeff Moyer spotted. It's possible for CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink to return without setting target_path to a valid pointer. If that happens then the current value to which we're initializing this pointer could cause an oops when it's kfree'd. This patch is a little more comprehensive than the last patches. It reorganizes cifs_follow_link a bit for (hopefully) better readability. It should also eliminate the uneeded allocation of full_path on servers without unix extensions (assuming they can get to this point anyway, of which I'm not convinced). On a side note, I'm not sure I agree with the logic of enabling this query even when unix extensions are disabled on the client. It seems like that should disable this as well. But, changing that is outside the scope of this fix, so I've left it alone for now.

Commit c45d6320 ("fix reference counting of ftdi_private") stopped ftdi_sio_port_remove() from directly freeing the port-private data, with the intention if the port was still open, it would be freed when ftdi_close() is eventually called and releases the last refcount on the structure. That's all very well, but ftdi_sio_port_remove() still contains a call to usb_set_serial_port_data(port, NULL) -- so by the time we get to ftdi_close() for the port which was unplugged, it _still_ oopses on dereferencing that NULL pointer, as it did before (and does in 2.6.29). The fix is just not to clear the private data in ftdi_sio_port_remove(). Then the refcount is properly reduced to zero when the final kref_put() happens in ftdi_close(). Remove a bogus comment too, while we're at it. And stop doing things inside "if (priv)" -- it must _always_ be there. Based loosely on an earlier patch by Daniel Mack, and suggestions by Alan Stern.

Mel Gorman authored
pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole. In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the entire section. However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid() returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of the full memmap are extremely rare. This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory consumption offsetting the gains. This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within() for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is invalid for that PFN. Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
