ring-buffer: no preempt for sched_clock()
Impact: disable preemption when calling sched_clock()
The ring_buffer_time_stamp still uses sched_clock as its counter.
But it is a bug to call it with preemption enabled. This requirement
should not be pushed to the ring_buffer_time_stamp callers, so
the ring_buffer_time_stamp needs to disable preemption when calling
sched_clock.

ring-buffer: buffer record on/off switch
Impact: enable/disable ring buffer recording API added
Several kernel developers have requested that there be a way to stop
recording into the ring buffers with a simple switch that can also
be enabled from userspace. This patch addes a new kernel API to the
ring buffers called:
tracing_on()
tracing_off()
When tracing_off() is called, all ring buffers will not be able to record
into their buffers.
tracing_on() will enable the ring buffers again.
These two act like an on/off switch. That is, there is no counting of the
number of times tracing_off or tracing_on has been called.
A new file is added to the debugfs/tracing directory called
tracing_on
This allows for userspace applications to also flip the switch.
echo 0 > debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
disables the tracing.
echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
enables it.
Note, this does not disable or enable any tracers. It only sets or clears
a flag that needs to be set in order for the ring buffers to write to
their buffers. It is a global flag, and affects all ring buffers.
The buffers start out with tracing_on enabled.
There are now three flags that control recording into the buffers:
tracing_on: which affects all ring buffer tracers.
buffer->record_disabled: which affects an allocated buffer, which may be set
if an anomaly is detected, and tracing is disabled.
cpu_buffer->record_disabled: which is set by tracing_stop() or if an
anomaly is detected. tracing_start can not reenable this if
an anomaly occurred.
The userspace debugfs/tracing/tracing_enabled is implemented with
tracing_stop() but the user space code can not enable it if the kernel
called tracing_stop().
Userspace can enable the tracing_on even if the kernel disabled it.
It is just a switch used to stop tracing if a condition was hit.
tracing_on is not for protecting critical areas in the kernel nor is
it for stopping tracing if an anomaly occurred. This is because userspace
can reenable it at any time.
Side effect: With this patch, I discovered a dead variable in ftrace.c
called tracing_on. This patch removes it.

V4L/DVB (9492): unplug oops from dvb_frontend_init...
When inadvertently hot-unplugging a WT-220U USB DVB-T receiver with
2.6.24, I was met with an oops [1]. The problem is relevant to
2.6.25/26-rc also.
dvb_frontend_init() was called either from re-creation of the kdvb-fe0
thread - seems unlikely, or someone called
dvb_frontend_reinitialise(), causing this path in the thread - really
unlikely, as I can't find any call-site for it.
Either way, quite a number of drivers call dvb_usb_generic_rw() [2]
without checking the validity of the relevant member in the
dvb_usb_device struct - which had changed. Having dvb_usb_generic_rw()
sanity-check and fail (rather than loading from 0x120) seems
reasonable defensive programming [3], in light of it being called in
this way.
The problem with this, is that drivers don't check the return code of
the init call [4]. Does it make sense to cook a patch which allows the
failure to be propagated back up, or am I missing something else?

There already is an report at kernel bugzilla about this issue:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9455
When enabling extra checks for the i2c-bus of cx88 based cards by
loading i2c_algo_bit with bit_test=1 this may trigger an oops
when loading cx88_dvb.
This is caused by the extra check code that detects that the
sda-line is stuck high and thus does not register the i2c-bus.
cx88-dvb however does not check if the i2c-bus is valid and just
uses core->i2c_adap to attach dvb frontend modules.
This leads to an oops at the first call to i2c_transfer:

BAR base is located in the middle of the 4K page and the hardcoded

Fix the hard coded size argument in ioremap().
Andy Burns commented:
I have already sent this patch on the linux-dvb list, but it didn't get
much attention, so re-sending direct, I hope you all don't mind.
While attempting to run mythtv in a xen domU, I encountered problems
loading the driver for my saa7134 card, with an error from ioremap().
This error was due to the driver allocating an incorrectly sized mmio
area, which was trapped by xen's permission checks, but this would go
un-noticed on a kernel without xen.
My card has a 1K sized mmio area, I've had information that other cards
have 2K areas, perhaps others have different sizes, yet the driver
always attempts to map 4K. I realise that the granularity of mapping is
the page size, which typically would be 4K, but unless the card's base
address happens to fall on a 4K boundary (mine does not) then the
base+4K will end up spanning two pages, and this is when the error
occurs under xen.
My patch uses the pci_resource_len macro to determine the size required
for the user's particular card, instead of the hardcoded 4K value. I've
tested with a couple of printk() inside ioremap() that the start address
and size do get rounded to the closest page boundary.
With this patch I am able to successfully load the saa7134 driver and
run mythtv under xen with my card, subject to correct pollirq settings
in case of shared IRQ, I am still seeing occasional DMA panics, which I
think are related to swiotlb handling by dom0/domU, usually the panic
occurs when changing mux, once tuned to a mux, 12 hour continuous
recordings are possible without errors.

we queue them on the cb_pending list, so that they won't go

Thus, when the callbacks of the timers run from the softirq context,

libata: fix last_reset timestamp handling
ehc->last_reset is used to ensure that resets are not issued too
close to each other. It's initialized to jiffies minus one minute
on EH entry. However, when new links are initialized after PMP is
probed, new links have zero for this timestamp resulting in long wait
depending on the current jiffies.
This patch makes last_set considered iff ATA_EHI_DID_RESET is set, in
which case last_reset is always initialized. As an added precaution,
WARN_ON() is added so that warning is printed if last_reset is
in future.

sometimes it would render before the swap and garbage would be displayed on

By removing the ioctl and returning -EINVAL, userland returns to its previous,

fix for account_group_exec_runtime(), make sure ->signal can't be freed under rq->lock
Impact: fix hang/crash on ia64 under high load
This is ugly, but the simplest patch by far.
Unlike other similar routines, account_group_exec_runtime() could be
called "implicitly" from within scheduler after exit_notify(). This
means we can race with the parent doing release_task(), we can't just
check ->signal != NULL.
Change __exit_signal() to do spin_unlock_wait(&task_rq(tsk)->lock)
before __cleanup_signal() to make sure ->signal can't be freed under
task_rq(tsk)->lock. Note that task_rq_unlock_wait() doesn't care
about the case when tsk changes cpu/rq under us, this should be OK.
Thanks to Ingo who nacked my previous buggy patch.
Before commit b6c40d68ff6498b7f63ddf97cf0aa818d748dee7 ("net: only
invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP"), the dsa driver could
sort-of get away with only fiddling with the master interface's
allmulti/promisc counts in ->change_rx_flags() and not touching them
in ->open() or ->stop(). After this commit (note that it was merged
almost simultaneously with the dsa patches, which is why this wasn't
caught initially), the breakage that was already there became more
apparent.
Since it makes no sense to keep the master interface's allmulti or
promisc count pinned for a slave interface that is down, copy the vlan
driver's sync logic (which does exactly what we want) over to dsa to
fix this.

ring-buffer: prevent infinite looping on time stamping
Impact: removal of unnecessary looping
The lockless part of the ring buffer allows for reentry into the code
from interrupts. A timestamp is taken, a test is preformed and if it
detects that an interrupt occurred that did tracing, it tries again.
The problem arises if the timestamp code itself causes a trace.
The detection will detect this and loop again. The difference between
this and an interrupt doing tracing, is that this will fail every time,
and cause an infinite loop.
Currently, we test if the loop happens 1000 times, and if so, it will
produce a warning and disable the ring buffer.
The problem with this approach is that it makes it difficult to perform
some types of tracing (tracing the timestamp code itself).
Each trace entry has a delta timestamp from the previous entry.
If a trace entry is reserved but and interrupt occurs and traces before
the previous entry is commited, the delta timestamp for that entry will
be zero. This actually makes sense in terms of tracing, because the
interrupt entry happened before the preempted entry was commited, so
one may consider the two happening at the same time. The order is
still preserved in the buffer.
With this idea, instead of trying to get a new timestamp if an interrupt
made it in between the timestamp and the test, the entry could simply
make the delta zero and continue. This will prevent interrupts or
tracers in the timer code from causing the above loop.
