547de29e5b KVM: protect assigned dev workqueue, int handler and irq acker
kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq is vulnerable to a race condition with the
interrupt handler function. It does:

        if (dev->host_irq_disabled) {
                enable_irq(dev->host_irq);
                dev->host_irq_disabled = false;
        }

If an interrupt triggers before the host->dev_irq_disabled assignment,
it will disable the interrupt and set dev->host_irq_disabled to true.

On return to kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq, dev->host_irq_disabled is set to
false, and the next kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq call will fail to reenable
it.

Other than that, having the interrupt handler and work handlers run in
parallel sounds like asking for trouble (could not spot any obvious
problem, but better not have to, its fragile).

32f8840064 KVM: use smp_send_reschedule in kvm_vcpu_kick
KVM uses a function call IPI to cause the exit of a guest running on a
physical cpu. For virtual interrupt notification there is no need to
wait on IPI receival, or to execute any function.

This is exactly what the reschedule IPI does, without the overhead
of function IPI. So use it instead of smp_call_function_single in
kvm_vcpu_kick.

Also change the "guest_mode" variable to a bit in vcpu->requests, and
use that to collapse multiple IPI's that would be issued between the
first one and zeroing of guest mode.

This allows kvm_vcpu_kick to called with interrupts disabled.

522c68c441 KVM: Enable snooping control for supported hardware
Memory aliases with different memory type is a problem for guest. For the guest
without assigned device, the memory type of guest memory would always been the
same as host(WB); but for the assigned device, some part of memory may be used
as DMA and then set to uncacheable memory type(UC/WC), which would be a conflict of
host memory type then be a potential issue.

Snooping control can guarantee the cache correctness of memory go through the
DMA engine of VT-d.

e56d532f20 KVM: Device assignment framework rework
After discussion with Marcelo, we decided to rework device assignment framework
together. The old problems are kernel logic is unnecessary complex. So Marcelo
suggest to split it into a more elegant way:

1. Split host IRQ assign and guest IRQ assign. And userspace determine the
combination. Also discard msi2intx parameter, userspace can specific
KVM_DEV_IRQ_HOST_MSI | KVM_DEV_IRQ_GUEST_INTX in assigned_irq->flags to
enable MSI to INTx convertion.

2. Split assign IRQ and deassign IRQ. Import two new ioctls:
KVM_ASSIGN_DEV_IRQ and KVM_DEASSIGN_DEV_IRQ.

This patch also fixed the reversed _IOR vs _IOW in definition(by deprecated the
old interface).

d510d6cc65 KVM: Enable MSI-X for KVM assigned device
This patch finally enable MSI-X.

What we need for MSI-X:
1. Intercept one page in MMIO region of device. So that we can get guest desired
MSI-X table and set up the real one. Now this have been done by guest, and
transfer to kernel using ioctl KVM_SET_MSIX_NR and KVM_SET_MSIX_ENTRY.

2. Information for incoming interrupt. Now one device can have more than one
interrupt, and they are all handled by one workqueue structure. So we need to
identify them. The previous patch enable gsi_msg_pending_bitmap get this done.

3. Mapping from host IRQ to guest gsi as well as guest gsi to real MSI/MSI-X
message address/data. We used same entry number for the host and guest here, so
that it's easy to find the correlated guest gsi.

What we lack for now:
1. The PCI spec said nothing can existed with MSI-X table in the same page of
MMIO region, except pending bits. The patch ignore pending bits as the first
step (so they are always 0 - no pending).

2. The PCI spec allowed to change MSI-X table dynamically. That means, the OS
can enable MSI-X, then mask one MSI-X entry, modify it, and unmask it. The patch
didn't support this, and Linux also don't work in this way.

3. The patch didn't implement MSI-X mask all and mask single entry. I would
implement the former in driver/pci/msi.c later. And for single entry, userspace
should have reposibility to handle it.

087eb43705 ptrace: tracehook_report_clone: fix false positives
The "trace || CLONE_PTRACE" check in tracehook_report_clone() is not right,

- If the untraced task does clone(CLONE_PTRACE) the new child is not traced,
  we must not queue SIGSTOP.

- If we forked the traced task, but the tracer exits and untraces both the
  forking task and the new child (after copy_process() drops tasklist_lock),
  we should not queue SIGSTOP too.

Change the code to check task_ptrace() != 0 instead. This is still racy, but
the race is harmless.

We can race with another tracer attaching to this child, or the tracer can
exit and detach in parallel. But giwen that we didn't do wake_up_new_task()
yet, the child must have the pending SIGSTOP anyway.

mapping->tree_lock can be acquired from interrupt context.  Then,
following dead lock can occur.

Assume "A" as a page.

 CPU0:

			-> take mapping->tree_lock.
 CPU1:
       take mapping->tree_lock
		-> lock_page_cgroup(A)

This patch tries to fix above deadlock by moving memcg's hook to out of
mapping->tree_lock.  charge/uncharge of pagecache/swapcache is protected
by page lock, not tree_lock.

After this patch, lock_page_cgroup() is not called under mapping->tree_lock.

2f102607ac i7300_idle: allow testing on i5000-series hardware w/o re-compile
Testing the i7300_idle driver on i5000-series hardware required
an edit to i7300_idle.h to "#define SUPPORT_I5000 1" and a re-build
of both i7300_idle and ioat_dma.

Replace that build-time scheme with a load-time module parameter:
"7300_idle.forceload=1" to make it easier to test the driver
on hardware that while not officially validated, works fine
and is much more commonly available.

By default (no modparam) the driver will continue to load
only on the i7300.

Note that ioat_dma runs a copy of i7300_idle's probe routine
to know to reserve an IOAT channel for i7300_idle.
This change makes ioat_dma do that always on the i5000,
just like it does on the i7300.

bfcaa50270 netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: fix accepting invalid RST segments
Robert L Mathews discovered that some clients send evil TCP RST segments,
which are accepted by netfilter conntrack but discarded by the
destination. Thus the conntrack entry is destroyed but the destination
retransmits data until timeout.

The same technique, i.e. sending properly crafted RST segments, can easily
be used to bypass connlimit/connbytes based restrictions (the sample
script written by Robert can be found in the netfilter mailing list
archives).

The patch below adds a new flag and new field to struct ip_ct_tcp_state so
that checking RST segments can be made more strict and thus TCP conntrack
can catch the invalid ones: the RST segment is accepted only if its
sequence number higher than or equal to the highest ack we seen from the
other direction. (The last_ack field cannot be reused because it is used
to catch resent packets.)

eb33575cf6 [ARM] Double check memmap is actually valid with a memmap has unexpected holes V2
pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap
associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always

In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the
entire section.

However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free
memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never
used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid()
returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional
check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the
zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of
the full memmap are extremely rare.

This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for
SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages
are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that
any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching
these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the
memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of
the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid
memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory
consumption offsetting the gains.

This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes
in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets
ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx
which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand
later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within()
for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for
that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is
invalid for that PFN.

4bca328643 libata: Media rotation rate and form factor heuristics
This patch provides new heuristics for parsing both the form factor and
media rotation rate ATA IDENFITY words.

The reported ATA version must be 7 or greater and the device must return
values defined as valid in the standard.  Only then are the
characteristics reported to SCSI via the VPD B1 page.

This seems like a reasonable compromise to me considering that we have
been shipping several kernel releases that key off the rotation rate bit
without any version checking whatsoever.  With no complaints so far.

cd17cbfda0 Revert "mm: add /proc controls for pdflush threads"
This reverts commit fafd688e4c.

Work is progressing to switch away from pdflush as the process backing
for flushing out dirty data. So it seems pointless to add more knobs
to control pdflush threads. The original author of the patch did not
have any specific use cases for adding the knobs, so we can easily
revert this before 2.6.30 to avoid having to maintain this API
forever.

4f005dbe55 ioatdma: fix "ioatdma frees DMA memory with wrong function"
as reported by Alexander Beregalov <a.beregalov@gmail.com>

ioatdma 0000:00:08.0: DMA-API: device driver frees DMA memory with
wrong function [device address=0x000000007f76f800] [size=2000 bytes]
[map
ped as single] [unmapped as page]

The ioatdma driver was unmapping all regions
(either allocated as page or single) using unmap_page.
This patch lets dma driver recognize if unmap_single or unmap_page should be used.
It introduces two new dma control flags:
DMA_COMPL_SRC_UNMAP_SINGLE and DMA_COMPL_DEST_UNMAP_SINGLE.
They should be set to indicate dma driver to do dma-unmapping as single
(first one for the source, tha latter for the destination).
If respective flag is not set, the driver assumes dma-unmapping as page.
