Commit a2e066bba2 introduced core
swapping for CPU models 64 and later. I recently had a report about
a Sempron 3200+, model 95, for which this patch broke temperature
reading. It happens that this is a single-core processor, so the
effect of the swapping was to read a temperature value for a core
that didn't exist, leading to an incorrect value (-49 degrees C.)
Disabling core swapping on singe-core processors should fix this.
Additional comment from Andreas:
The BKDG says
Thermal Sensor Core Select (ThermSenseCoreSel)-Bit 2. This bit
selects the CPU whose temperature is reported in the CurTemp
field. This bit only applies to dual core processors. For
single core processors CPU0 Thermal Sensor is always selected.
k8temp_probe() correctly detected that SEL_CORE can't be used on single
core CPU. Thus k8temp did never update the temperature values stored
in temp[1][x] and -49 degrees was reported. For single core CPUs we
must use the values read into temp[0][x].

Commit c7f486567c
(PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver) causes the native PCIe
PME signaling to be used by default, if the BIOS allows the kernel to
control the standard configuration registers of PCIe root ports.
However, the native PCIe PME is coupled to the native PCIe hotplug
and calling pcie_pme_acpi_setup() makes some BIOSes expect that
the native PCIe hotplug will be used as well. That, in turn, causes
problems to appear on systems where the PCIe hotplug driver is not
loaded. The usual symptom, as reported by Jaroslav Kameník and
others, is that the ACPI GPE associated with PCIe hotplug keeps
firing continuously causing kacpid to take substantial percentage
of CPU time.
To work around this issue, change the default so that the native
PCIe PME signaling is only used if directly requested with the help
of the pcie_pme= command line switch.
Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15924 , which is

Commit e70971591 ("sched: Optimize unused cgroup configuration") introduced
an imbalanced scheduling bug.
If we do not use CGROUP, function update_h_load won't update h_load. When the
system has a large number of tasks far more than logical CPU number, the
incorrect cfs_rq[cpu]->h_load value will cause load_balance() to pull too
many tasks to the local CPU from the busiest CPU. So the busiest CPU keeps
going in a round robin. That will hurt performance.
The issue was found originally by a scientific calculation workload that
developed by Yanmin. With that commit, the workload performance drops
about 40%.

Hi,
A user reported a kernel bug when running a particular program that did
the following:
created 32 threads
- each thread took a mutex, grabbed a global offset, added a buffer size
to that offset, released the lock
- read from the given offset in the file
- created a new thread to do the same
- exited
The result is that cfq's close cooperator logic would trigger, as the
threads were issuing I/O within the mean seek distance of one another.
This workload managed to routinely trigger a use after free bug when
walking the list of merge candidates for a particular cfqq
(cfqq->new_cfqq). The logic used for merging queues looks like this:
static void cfq_setup_merge(struct cfq_queue *cfqq, struct cfq_queue *new_cfqq)
{
int process_refs, new_process_refs;
struct cfq_queue *__cfqq;
/* Avoid a circular list and skip interim queue merges */
while ((__cfqq = new_cfqq->new_cfqq)) {
if (__cfqq == cfqq)
return;
new_cfqq = __cfqq;
}
process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(cfqq);
/*
* If the process for the cfqq has gone away, there is no
* sense in merging the queues.
*/
if (process_refs == 0)
return;
/*
* Merge in the direction of the lesser amount of work.
*/
new_process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(new_cfqq);
if (new_process_refs >= process_refs) {
cfqq->new_cfqq = new_cfqq;
atomic_add(process_refs, &new_cfqq->ref);
} else {
new_cfqq->new_cfqq = cfqq;
atomic_add(new_process_refs, &cfqq->ref);
}
}
When a merge candidate is found, we add the process references for the
queue with less references to the queue with more. The actual merging
of queues happens when a new request is issued for a given cfqq. In the
case of the test program, it only does a single pread call to read in
1MB, so the actual merge never happens.
Normally, this is fine, as when the queue exits, we simply drop the
references we took on the other cfqqs in the merge chain:
/*
* If this queue was scheduled to merge with another queue, be
* sure to drop the reference taken on that queue (and others in
* the merge chain). See cfq_setup_merge and cfq_merge_cfqqs.
*/
__cfqq = cfqq->new_cfqq;
while (__cfqq) {
if (__cfqq == cfqq) {
WARN(1, "cfqq->new_cfqq loop detected\n");
break;
}
next = __cfqq->new_cfqq;
cfq_put_queue(__cfqq);
__cfqq = next;
}
However, there is a hole in this logic. Consider the following (and
keep in mind that each I/O keeps a reference to the cfqq):
q1->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 2 process references
q3->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 3 process references
// the process associated with q2 exits
// q2 now has 2 process references
// queue 1 exits, drops its reference on q2
// q2 now has 1 process reference
// q3 exits, so has 0 process references, and hence drops its references
// to q2, which leaves q2 also with 0 process references
q4 comes along and wants to merge with q3
q3->new_cfqq still points at q2! We follow that link and end up at an
already freed cfqq.
So, the fix is to not follow a merge chain if the top-most queue does
not have a process reference, otherwise any queue in the chain could be
already freed. I also changed the logic to disallow merging with a
queue that does not have any process references. Previously, we did
this check for one of the merge candidates, but not the other. That
doesn't really make sense.
Without the attached patch, my system would BUG within a couple of
seconds of running the reproducer program. With the patch applied, my

At exit, perf record will kill the process it was profiling by sending a
SIGTERM to child_pid (if it had been initialised), but in certain situations
child_pid may be 0 and perf would mistakenly kill more processes than intended.
child_pid is set to the return of fork() to either 0 or the pid of the child.
Ordinarily this would not present an issue as the child calls execvp to spawn
the process to be profiled and would therefore never run it's sig_atexit and
never attempt to kill pid 0.
However, if a nonexistant binary had been passed in to perf record the call to
execvp would fail and child_pid would be left set to 0. The child would then
exit and it's atexit handler, finding that child_pid was initialised to 0,
would call kill(0, SIGTERM), resulting in every process within it's process
group being killed.
In the case that perf was being run directly from the shell this typically
would not be an issue as the shell isolates the process. However, if perf was
being called from another program it could kill unexpected processes, which may
even include X.
This patch changes the logic of the test for whether child_pid was initialised
to only consider positive pids as valid, thereby never attempting to kill pid
0.

After commit 9630bdd9b1
(ACPI: Use GPE reference counting to support shared GPEs) the wakeup
enable mask bits of GPEs are set as soon as the GPEs are enabled to
wake up the system. Unfortunately, this leads to a regression
reported by Michal Hocko, where a system is woken up from ACPI S5 by
a device that is not supposed to do that, because the wakeup enable
mask bit of this device's GPE is always set when
acpi_enter_sleep_state() calls acpi_hw_enable_all_wakeup_gpes(),
although it should only be set if the device is supposed to wake up
the system from the target state.
To work around this issue, rework the ACPI power management code so
that GPEs are not enabled to wake up the system upfront, but only
during a system state transition when the target state of the system
is known. [Of course, this means that the reference counting of
"wakeup" GPEs doesn't really make sense and it is sufficient to
set/unset the wakeup mask bits for them during system sleep
transitions. This will allow us to simplify the GPE handling code
quite a bit, but that change is too intrusive for 2.6.35.]

This removes dma_get_ops() prefetch optimization in bnx2.
bnx2 uses dma_get_ops() to see if dma_sync_single_for_cpu() is

But dma_get_ops() isn't available on all the architectures (only the
architectures that uses dma_map_ops struct have it). Using
dma_get_ops() in drivers leads to compilation breakage on many

This patch removes dma_get_ops() and changes bnx2 to do prefetch on

Dumped buffer descriptors showed that eTSEC's length/truncation
logic sometimes passes oversized packets, i.e. for the above ICMP
packet the following two buffer descriptors may become ready:
status=1400 length=1536
status=1800 length=1541
So, it seems that gianfar actually receives the whole big frame,
and it tries to place the packet into two BDs. This situation
confuses the driver, and so the skb_put() sanity check fails.
This patch fixes the issue by adding an appropriate check, i.e.
the driver should not try to process frames with buffer
descriptor's length over rx_buffer_size (i.e. maxfrm and mrblr).
Note that sometimes eTSEC works correctly, i.e. in the second
(last) buffer descriptor bits 'truncated' and 'crcerr' are set,
and so there's no oops. Though I couldn't find any logic when
it works correctly and when not.

by calling the napi_disable() function twice.
Therefore we have to employ the dlpar_mem_lock in the ehea_reset_port
function as well

In the eHEA poll function an rmb() is required. Without that some packets
on the receive queue are not seen and thus delayed until the next interrupt
is handled for the same receive queue.

These comments were forgotten in the initial patch to add this
functionality. This patch corrects that.

The sch_teql module, which can be used to load balance over a set of
underlying interfaces, stopped working after 2.6.30 and has been
broken in all kernels since then for any underlying interface which
requires the addition of link level headers.
The problem is that the transmit routine relies on being able to
access the destination address in the skb in order to do address
resolution once it has decided which underlying interface it is going
to transmit through.
In 2.6.31 the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag was introduced, and set by
default for all interfaces, which causes the destination address to be
released before the transmit routine for the interface is called.
The solution is to clear that flag for teql interfaces.

Previously the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE bit was set unconditionally. However, if
the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE is set without TMR_CTRL[TE], the driver does not work
properly on some boards (Anton had problems with the MPC8313ERDB and
MPC8568EMDS).
With this patch the bit will only be set if requested from user space
with the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl command, meaning that time stamping is
disabled during normal operation. Users who are not interested in time
stamps will not experience problems with buggy CPU revisions or
performance drops any more.
The setting of TMR_CTRL[TE] is still up to the user. This is considered
safe because users wanting HW timestamps must initialize the eTSEC clock
first anyway, e.g. with the recently submitted PTP clock driver.
