[S390] kprobes: fix instruction length calculation

Placing a kprobe on "bc" instruction (s390/s390x) can cause an oops.
The instruction length is encoded into the first two bits of the s390
instruction. Kprobe is incorrectly computing the instruction length.
The instruction length is used for determining what type of "fix-up" is
needed for conditional branch instruction. The problem can bee seen by
placing a kprobe on a "bc" instruction that will not branch. The

dio: zero struct dio with kzalloc instead of manually

This patch uses kzalloc to zero all of struct dio rather than manually
trying to track which fields we rely on being zero.  It passed aio+dio
stress testing and some bug regression testing on ext3.

This patch was introduced by Linus in the conversation that lead up to
Badari's minimal fix to manually zero .map_bh.b_state in commit:

  6a648fa72161d1f6468dabd96c5d3c0db04f598a

It makes the code a bit smaller.  Maybe a couple fewer cachelines to
load, if we're lucky:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
3285925  568506 1304616 5159047  4eb887 vmlinux
3285797  568506 1304616 5158919  4eb807 vmlinux.patched

I was unable to measure a stable difference in the number of cpu cycles
spent in blockdev_direct_IO() when pushing aio+dio 256K reads at
~340MB/s.

So the resulting intent of the patch isn't a performance gain but to
avoid exposing ourselves to the risk of finding another field like
.map_bh.b_state where we rely on zeroing but don't enforce it in the
code.

V4L/DVB (6027): Get rid of an ill-behaved msleep in i2c write

Configuring the OLPC camera requires something over 150 register
writes.  Unfortunately, querying the CAFE i2c controller too
soon after a write causes the hardware to flake.  The problem had
been "solved" with an msleep() call, but, between the number of
registers and how msleep() behaves, that resulted in a 3-second
delay on camera initialization.  Instead, we hand-code a wait for
the completion interrupt which avoids reading the status registers.

x86: properly initialize temp insn buffer for paravirt patching

With commit ab144f5ec64c42218a555ec1dbde6b60cf2982d6 the patching code
now collects the complete new instruction stream into a temp buffer
before finally patching in the new insns.  In some cases the paravirt
patchers will choose to leave the patch site unpatched (length mismatch,
clobbers mismatch, etc).

This causes the new patching code to copy an uninitialized temp buffer,
i.e.  garbage, to the callsite.  Simply make sure to always initialize
the buffer with the original instruction stream.  A better fix is to
audit all the patchers and return proper length so that apply_paravirt()
can skip copies when we leave the patch site untouched.

i386: Fix a couple busy loops in mach_wakecpu.h:wait_for_init_deassert()

Use cpu_relax() in the busy loops, as atomic_read() doesn't automatically
imply volatility for i386 and x86_64. x86_64 doesn't have this issue because
it open-codes the while loop in smpboot.c:smp_callin() itself that already
uses cpu_relax().

For i386, however, smpboot.c:smp_callin() calls wait_for_init_deassert()
which is buggy for mach-default and mach-es7000 cases.

[ I test-built a kernel -- smp_callin() itself got inlined in its only
  callsite, smpboot.c:start_secondary() -- and the relevant piece of
  code disassembles to the following:

0xc1019704 <start_secondary+12>:        mov    0xc144c4c8,%eax
0xc1019709 <start_secondary+17>:        test   %eax,%eax
0xc101970b <start_secondary+19>:        je     0xc1019709 <start_secondary+17>

  init_deasserted (at 0xc144c4c8) gets fetched into %eax only once and
  then we loop over the test of the stale value in the register only,
  so these look like real bugs to me. With the fix below, this becomes:

0xc1019706 <start_secondary+14>:        pause
0xc1019708 <start_secondary+16>:        cmpl   $0x0,0xc144c4c8
0xc101970f <start_secondary+23>:        je     0xc1019706 <start_secondary+14>

David S. Miller [Fri, 17 Aug 2007 05:59:49 +0000 (22:59 -0700)]
[MATH-EMU]: Fix underflow exception reporting.

The underflow exception cases were wrong.

This is one weird area of ieee1754 handling in that the underflow
behavior changes based upon whether underflow is enabled in the trap
enable mask of the FPU control register.  As a specific case the Sparc
V9 manual gives us the following description:

--------------------
If UFM = 0:     Underflow occurs if a nonzero result is tiny and a
                loss of accuracy occurs.  Tininess may be detected
                before or after rounding.  Loss of accuracy may be
                either a denormalization loss or an inexact result.

If UFM = 1:     Underflow occurs if a nonzero result is tiny.
                Tininess may be detected before or after rounding.
--------------------

What this amounts to in the packing case is if we go subnormal,
we set underflow if any of the following are true:

1) rounding sets inexact
2) we ended up rounding back up to normal (this is the case where
   we set the exponent to 1 and set the fraction to zero), this
   should set inexact too
3) underflow is set in FPU control register trap-enable mask

The initially discovered example was "DBL_MIN / 16.0" which
incorrectly generated an underflow.  It should not, unless underflow
is set in the trap-enable mask of the FPU csr.

Another example, "0x0.0000000000001p-1022 / 16.0", should signal both
inexact and underflow.  The cpu implementations and ieee1754
literature is very clear about this.  This is case #2 above.

However, if underflow is set in the trap enable mask, only underflow
should be set and reported as a trap.  That is handled properly by the
prioritization logic in

arch/sparc{,64}/math-emu/math.c:record_exception().

Based upon a report and test case from Jakub Jelinek.
