      Alexander Strakh authored
      227         usb_make_path(dev, cam->input_physname, sizeof(cam->input_physname));
      
      After this line we use strncat:
      
      228         strncat(cam->input_physname, "/input0", sizeof(cam->input_physname));
      
      where sizeof(cam->input_physname) returns length of cam->input_phisname
      without length for null-symbol.  But this parameter must be - "maximum
      numbers of bytes to copy", i.e.:
      sizeof(cam->input_physname)-strlen(cam->input_physname)-1.
      
      In this case, after call to usb_make_path the similar drivers use strlcat.
      
      Like in drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c:
      1152         usb_make_path(dev, hid->phys, sizeof(hid->phys));
      1153         strlcat(hid->phys, "/input", sizeof(hid->phys));
      
      Found by Linux Driver Verification Project.
      
      Use strlcat instead of strncat.

      The Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) module allocates individual pages · 92c311b9

      over time that are not migratable.  On a long running system this can
      severely impact the ability to find enough pages to support a hotplug
      memory remove operation.
      
      This patch adds a memory isolation notifier and a memory hotplug notifier.
      The memory isolation notifier will return the number of pages found in
      the range specified.  This is used to determine if all of the used pages
      in a pageblock are owned by the balloon (or other entities in the notifier
      chain).  The hotplug notifier will free pages in the range which is to be
      removed.  The priority of this hotplug notifier is low so that it will be
      called near last, this helps avoids removing loaned pages in operations
      that fail due to other handlers.
      
      CMM activity will be halted when hotplug remove operations are active and
      resume activity after a delay period to allow the hypervisor time to
      adjust.

      Memory balloon drivers can allocate a large amount of memory which is not · 3a2c66c2
      Robert Jennings authored
      movable but could be freed to accomodate memory hotplug remove.
      
      Prior to calling the memory hotplug notifier chain the memory in the
      pageblock is isolated.  Currently, if the migrate type is not
      MIGRATE_MOVABLE the isolation will not proceed, causing the memory removal
      for that page range to fail.
      
      Rather than failing pageblock isolation if the migrateteype is not
      MIGRATE_MOVABLE, this patch checks if all of the pages in the pageblock,
      and not on the LRU, are owned by a registered balloon driver (or other
      entity) using a notifier chain.  If all of the non-movable pages are owned
      by a balloon, they can be freed later through the memory notifier chain
      and the range can still be isolated in set_migratetype_isolate().

      Presently acpi-cpufreq will perform the MSR read on the first CPU in the · b192f3b1

      mask.  That's inefficient if that CPU differs from the current CPU. 
      Because we have to perform a cross-CPU call, but we could have run the
      rdmsr on the current CPU.
      
      So switch to using the new smp_call_function_any(), which will perform the
      call on the current CPU if that CPU is present in the mask (it is).
