Commit 05f4c350 "NFS: Discover NFSv4 server trunking when mounting"
Fri Sep 14 17:24:32 2012 introduced Uniform Client String support,
which forces our NFS client to establish a client ID immediately
during a mount operation rather than waiting until a user wants to
open a file.
Normally machine credentials (eg. from a keytab) are used to perform
a mount operation that is protected by Kerberos. Before 05fc350,
SETCLIENTID used a machine credential, or fell back to a regular
user's credential if no keytab is available.
On clients that don't have a keytab, performing SETCLIENTID early
means there's no user credential to fall back on, since no regular
user has kinit'd yet. 05f4c350 seems to have broken the ability
to mount with sec=krb5 on clients that don't have a keytab in
kernels 3.7 - 3.10.
To address this regression, commit 4edaa308 (NFS: Use "krb5i" to
establish NFSv4 state whenever possible), Sat Mar 16 15:56:20 2013,
was merged in 3.10. This commit forces the NFS client to fall back
to AUTH_SYS for lease management operations if no keytab is
available.
Neil Brown noticed that, since root is required to kinit to do a
sec=krb5 mount when a client doesn't have a keytab, we can try to
use root's Kerberos credential before AUTH_SYS.
Now, when determining a principal and flavor to use for lease
management, the NFS client tries in this order:
1. Flavor: AUTH_GSS, krb5i
Principal: service principal (via keytab)
2. Flavor: AUTH_GSS, krb5i
Principal: user principal established for UID 0 (via kinit)
3. Flavor: AUTH_SYS
Principal: UID 0 / GID 0

Commit 6f2ea7f2a (NFS: Add nfs4_unique_id boot parameter) introduces a
boot parameter that allows client administrators to set a string
identifier for use by the EXCHANGE_ID and SETCLIENTID arguments in order
to make them more globally unique.
Unfortunately, that uniquifier is no longer globally unique in the presence
of net namespaces, since each container expects to be able to set up their
own lease when mounting a new NFSv4/4.1 partition.
The fix is to add back in the container-specific hostname in addition to
the unique id.

- the x86_pkg_temp_thermal driver causes crash on systems with no

that when there is no PTS support, module doesn't get loaded.
- fix krealloc() misuse in pkg_temp_thermal_device_add().
If krealloc() returns NULL, it doesn't free the original. Thus if
we want to exit because of the krealloc() failure, we must make
sure the original one is freed.
- The error code path of the x86 package temperature thermal driver's
initialization routine makes an unbalanced call to
get_online_cpus(), which causes subsequent CPU offline operations,
and consequently system suspend, to permanently block in
cpu_hotplug_begin() on systems where get_core_online() returns an

Commit f1a18a105 "Thermal: CPU Package temperature thermal" had code
that did a get_online_cpus(), run a loop and then do a
put_online_cpus(). The problem is that the loop had an error exit that
would skip the put_online_cpus() part.
In the error exit part of the function, it also did a get_online_cpus(),
run a loop and then put_online_cpus(). The only way to get to the error
exit part is with get_online_cpus() already performed. If this error
condition is hit, the system will be prevented from taking CPUs offline.
The process taking the CPU offline will lock up hard.
Removing the get_online_cpus() removes the lockup as the hotplug CPU
refcount is back to zero.
This was bisected with ktest.

Pull ACPI video support fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"I'm sending a separate pull request for this as it may be somewhat
controversial. The breakage addressed here is not really new and the
fixes may not satisfy all users of the affected systems, but we've had
so much back and forth dance in this area over the last several weeks
that I think it's time to actually make some progress.
The source of the problem is that about a year ago we started to tell
BIOSes that we're compatible with Windows 8, which we really need to
do, because some systems shipping with Windows 8 are tested with it
and nothing else, so if we tell their BIOSes that we aren't compatible
with Windows 8, we expose our users to untested BIOS/AML code paths.
However, as it turns out, some Windows 8-specific AML code paths are
not tested either, because Windows 8 actually doesn't use the ACPI
methods containing them, so if we declare Windows 8 compatibility and
attempt to use those ACPI methods, things break. That occurs mostly
in the backlight support area where in particular the _BCM and _BQC
methods are plain unusable on some systems if the OS declares Windows
8 compatibility.
[ The additional twist is that they actually become usable if the OS
says it is not compatible with Windows 8, but that may cause
problems to show up elsewhere ]
Investigation carried out by Matthew Garrett indicates that what
Windows 8 does about backlight is to leave backlight control up to
individual graphics drivers. At least there's evidence that it does
that if the Intel graphics driver is used, so we've decided to follow
Windows 8 in that respect and allow i915 to control backlight (Daniel
likes that part).
The first commit from Aaron Lu makes ACPICA export the variable from
which we can infer whether or not the BIOS believes that we are
compatible with Windows 8.
The second commit from Matthew Garrett prepares the ACPI video driver
by making it initialize the ACPI backlight even if it is not going to
be used afterward (that is needed for backlight control to work on
Thinkpads).
The third commit implements the actual workaround making i915 take
over backlight control if the firmware thinks it's dealing with
Windows 8 and is based on the work of multiple developers, including
Matthew Garrett, Chun-Yi Lee, Seth Forshee, and Aaron Lu.
The final commit from Aaron Lu makes us follow Windows 8 by informing
the firmware through the _DOS method that it should not carry out
automatic brightness changes, so that brightness can be controlled by
GUI.
Hopefully, this approach will allow us to avoid using blacklists of
systems that should not declare Windows 8 compatibility just to avoid
backlight control problems in the future.

"Fix regression caused by commit af51a2ac36 which added ->tmpfile()
support (along with a similar fix for ext3)"

Here are a few iio driver fixes for 3.11-rc2. They are still spread
across drivers/iio and drivers/staging/iio so they are coming in through
this tree.
I've also removed the drivers/staging/csr/ driver as the developers who
originally sent it to me have moved on to other companies, and CSR still
will not send us the specs for the device, making the driver pretty much
obsolete and impossible to fix up. Deleting it now prevents people from
sending in lots of tiny codingsyle fixes that will never go anywhere.
It also helps to offset the large lustre filesystem merge that happened
in 3.11-rc1 in the overall 3.11.0 diffstat. :)
