The commit e783c51 (ahci: imx: software workaround for phy reset issue
in resume) calls imx_sata_phy_reset() to reset phy immediately after
SATA MPLL is enabled. It seems working fine mostly, but fails in some
case as below.
...
ahci-imx 2200000.sata: failed to reset phy: -110
ahci-imx: probe of 2200000.sata failed with error -110
After talking to the designer, we learnt that when enabling i.MX6Q SATA
MPLL, we need to wait 100us for it to settle down for safety. Add this
required delay to fix above failure.

On each processed XCOPY command, two "kmalloc-512" memory objects are
leaked. These represent two allocations of struct xcopy_pt_cmd in
target_core_xcopy.c.
The reason for the memory leak is that the cmd_kref field is not
initialized (thus, it is zero because the allocations were done with
kzalloc). When we decrement zero kref in target_put_sess_cmd, the result
is not zero, thus target_release_cmd_kref is not called.
This patch fixes the bug by moving kref initialization from
target_get_sess_cmd to transport_init_se_cmd (this function is called from
target_core_xcopy.c, so it will correctly initialize cmd_kref). It can be
easily verified that all code that calls target_get_sess_cmd also calls
transport_init_se_cmd earlier, thus moving kref_init shouldn't introduce
any new problems.

It has been reported that using ZFSonLinux on rbd will result in memory
corruption. The bug report can be found here:
https://github.com/zfsonlinux/spl/issues/241http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/7790
The reason is that ZFS will send pages with page_count 0 into rbd, which in
turns send them to tcp_sendpage. However, tcp_sendpage cannot deal with
page_count 0, as it will do get_page and put_page, and erroneously free the
page.
This type of issue has been noted before, and handled in iscsi, drbd,
etc. So, rbd should also handle this. This fix address this issue by fall back
to slower sendmsg when page_count 0 detected.

When the target is in stop stage, iSER transport initiates RDMA disconnects.
The iSER initiator may wish to establish a new connection over the
still existing network portal. In this case iSER transport should not
accept and resume new RDMA connections. In order to learn that, iscsi_np
is added with enabled flag so the iSER transport can check when deciding
weather to accept and resume a new connection request.
The iscsi_np is enabled after successful transport setup, and disabled
before iscsi_np login threads are cleaned up.

RDMA CM and iSCSI target flows are asynchronous and completely
uncorrelated. Relying on the fact that iscsi_accept_np will be called
after CM connection request event and will wait for it is a mistake.
When attempting to login to a few targets this flow is racy and
unpredictable, but for parallel login to dozens of targets will
race and hang every time.
The correct synchronizing mechanism in this case is pending on
a semaphore rather than a wait_for_event. We keep the pending
interruptible for iscsi_np cleanup stage.

The attached change significantly improves the performance of the LWS-CAS code
in syscall.S.
This allows a number of packages to build (e.g., zeromq3, gtest and libxs)
that previously failed because slow LWS-CAS performance under contention. In
particular, interrupts taken while the lock was taken degraded performance
significantly.
The change does the following:
1) Disables interrupts around the CAS operation, and
2) Changes the loads and stores to use the ordered completer, "o", on
PA 2.0. "o" and "ma" with a zero offset are equivalent. The latter is
accepted on both PA 1.X and 2.0.
The use of ordered loads and stores probably makes no difference on all
existing hardware, but it seemed pedantically correct. In particular, the CAS
operation must complete before LDCW lock is released. As written before, a
processor could reorder the operations.
I don't believe the period interrupts are disabled is long enough to
significantly increase interrupt latency. For example, the TLB insert code is
longer. Worst case is a memory fault in the CAS operation.

On SNB the BIOS provided WM memory latency values seem insufficient to
handle high resolution displays.
In this particular case the display mode was a 2560x1440@60Hz, which
makes the pixel clock 241.5 MHz. It was empirically found that a memory
latency value if 1.2 usec is enough to avoid underruns, whereas the BIOS
provided value of 0.7 usec was clearly too low. Incidentally 1.2 usec
is what the typical BIOS provided values are on IVB systems.
Increase the WM memory latency values to at least 1.2 usec on SNB.
Hopefully this won't have a significant effect on power consumption.

When we set backlight on behalf of ACPI opregion, we will convert the
backlight value in the 0-255 range defined in opregion to the actual
hardware level. Commit 22505b82a2 (drm/i915: avoid brightness overflow
when doing scale) is meant to fix the overflow problem when doing the
conversion, but it also caused a problem that the converted hardware
level doesn't quite represent the intended value: say user wants maximum
backlight level(255 in opregion's range), then we will calculate the
actual hardware level to be: level = freq / max * level, where freq is
the hardware's max backlight level(937 on an user's box), and max and
level are all 255. The converted value should be 937 but the above
calculation will yield 765.
To fix this issue, just use 64 bits to do the calculation to keep the
precision and avoid overflow at the same time.

drm/i915: reverse dp link param selection, prefer fast over wide again
The commit lead to 2 lanes at 5.4 Gbps being used instead of 4 lanes at
2.7 Gbps on the affected machines. Link training succeeded for both, but
the screen remained blank with the former config. Further investigation
showed that 4 lanes at 5.4 Gbps worked also.
The root cause for the blank screen using 2 lanes remains unknown, but
apparently the driver for a certain other operating system by default
uses the max available lanes. Follow suit on Broadwell eDP, for at least
until we figure out what is going on.

disabled 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels due to an information
leak. However, it does seem that people are genuinely using Wine to
run old 16-bit Windows programs on Linux.
A proper fix for this ("espfix64") is coming in the upcoming merge
window, but as a temporary fix, create a sysctl to allow the
administrator to re-enable support for 16-bit segments.
It adds a "/proc/sys/abi/ldt16" sysctl that defaults to zero (off). If
you hit this issue and care about your old Windows program more than
you care about a kernel stack address information leak, you can do
echo 1 > /proc/sys/abi/ldt16
as root (add it to your startup scripts), and you should be ok.
The sysctl table is only added if you have COMPAT support enabled on
x86-64, but I assume anybody who runs old windows binaries very much
does that ;)

Meta overrode _STK_LIM_MAX (the default RLIMIT_STACK hard limit) to
256MB, apparently in an attempt to prevent setup_arg_pages's
STACK_GROWSUP code from choosing the maximum stack size of 1GB, which is
far too large for Meta's limited virtual address space and hits a BUG_ON
(stack_top is usually 0x3ffff000).
However the commit "metag: Reduce maximum stack size to 256MB" reduces
the absolute stack size limit to a safe value for metag. This allows the
default _STK_LIM_MAX override to be removed, bringing the default
behaviour in line with all other architectures. Parisc in particular
recently removed their override of _STK_LIMT_MAX in commit e0d8898d76
(parisc: remove _STK_LIM_MAX override) since it subtly affects stack
allocation semantics in userland. Meta's uapi/asm/resource.h can now be
removed and switch to using generic-y.

This patch affects only architectures where the stack grows upwards
(currently parisc and metag only). On those do not hardcode the maximum
initial stack size to 1GB for 32-bit processes, but make it configurable
via a config option.
The main problem with the hardcoded stack size is, that we have two
memory regions which grow upwards: stack and heap. To keep most of the
memory available for heap in a flexmap memory layout, it makes no sense
to hard allocate up to 1GB of the memory for stack which can't be used
as heap then.
This patch makes the stack size for 32-bit processes configurable and
uses 80MB as default value which has been in use during the last few
years on parisc and which hasn't showed any problems yet.

Specify the maximum stack size for arches where the stack grows upward
(parisc and metag) in asm/processor.h rather than hard coding in
fs/exec.c so that metag can specify a smaller value of 256MB rather than
1GB.
This fixes a BUG on metag if the RLIMIT_STACK hard limit is increased
beyond a safe value by root. E.g. when starting a process after running
"ulimit -H -s unlimited" it will then attempt to use a stack size of the
maximum 1GB which is far too big for metag's limited user virtual
address space (stack_top is usually 0x3ffff000):
BUG: failure at fs/exec.c:589/shift_arg_pages()!

Volatile access doesn't really imply the compiler barrier. Volatile access
is only ordered with respect to other volatile accesses, it isn't ordered
with respect to general memory accesses. Gcc may reorder memory accesses
around volatile access, as we can see in this simple example (if we
compile it with optimization, both increments of *b will be collapsed to
just one):
void fn(volatile int *a, long *b)
{
(*b)++;
*a = 10;
(*b)++;
}
Consequently, we need the compiler barrier after a write to the volatile
variable, to make sure that the compiler doesn't reorder the volatile
write with something else.
