This patch introduces memory_read_from_buffer().
The only difference between memory_read_from_buffer() and
simple_read_from_buffer() is which address space the function copies to.
simple_read_from_buffer copies to user space memory.
memory_read_from_buffer copies to normal memory.

This patch makes os_get_task_size locate the bottom of the address space,
as well as the top. This is for systems which put a lower limit on mmap
addresses. It works by manually scanning pages from zero onwards until a
valid page is found.
Because the bottom of the address space may not be zero, it's not
sufficient to assume the top of the address space is the size of the
address space. The size is the difference between the top address and
bottom address.
[jdike@addtoit.com: changed the name to reflect that this function is

kobjsize() has been abusing page->index as a method for sorting out
compound order, which blows up both for page cache pages, and SLOB's
reuse of the index in struct slob_page.
Presently we are not able to accurately size arbitrary pointers that
don't come from kmalloc(), so the best we can do is sort out the
compound order from the head page if it's a compound page, or default
to 0-order if it's impossible to ksize() the object.
Obviously this leaves quite a bit to be desired in terms of object
sizing accuracy, but the behaviour is unchanged over the existing
implementation, while fixing the page->index oopses originally reported
here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=121127773325245&w=2
Accuracy could also be improved by having SLUB and SLOB both set PG_slab
on ksizeable pages, rather than just handling the __GFP_COMP cases
irregardless of the PG_slab setting, as made possibly with Pekka's
patches:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121139439900534&w=2http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121139440000537&w=2http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121139440000540&w=2
This is primarily a bugfix for nommu systems for 2.6.26, with the aim
being to gradually kill off kobjsize() and its particular brand of
object abuse entirely.

This version is a bit of a whopper. This version brings a few new checks,
improvements to a number of checks mostly through modifications to the
way types are parsed, several fixes to quote/comment handling, as well as
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.
Of note:
- return is not a function and is now reported,
- preprocessor directive detection is loosened to match C99 standard,
- we now intuit new type modifiers, and
- comment handling is much improved
Andy Whitcroft (18):
Version: 0.19
fix up a couple of missing newlines in reports
colon to parenthesis spacing varies on asm
values: #include is a preprocessor statement
quotes: fix single character quotes at line end

kerneldoc parameters must be on one line, relax line length
types: word boundary is not always required
improved #define bracketing reports
uninitialized_var is an annotation not a function name
possible types: add possible modifier handling
possible types: fastcall is a type modifier
types: unsigned is not a modifier on all types
static/external initialisation to zero should allow modifiers
checkpatch: fix recognition of preprocessor directives -- part 2

If a block is computed (rather than read) then a check/repair operation
may be lead to believe that the data on disk is correct, when infact it
isn't. So only compute blocks for failed devices.
This issue has been around since at least 2.6.12, but has become harder to
hit in recent kernels since most reads bypass the cache.

During the initial array synchronization process there is a window between
when a prexor operation is scheduled to a specific stripe and when it
completes for a sync_request to be scheduled to the same stripe. When
this happens the prexor completes and the stripe is unconditionally marked
"insync", effectively canceling the sync_request for the stripe. Prior to
2.6.23 this was not a problem because the prexor operation was done under
sh->lock. The effect in older kernels being that the prexor would still
erroneously mark the stripe "insync", but sync_request would be held off
and re-mark the stripe as "!in_sync".
Change the write completion logic to not mark the stripe "in_sync" if a
prexor was performed. The effect of the change is to sometimes not set
STRIPE_INSYNC. The worst this can do is cause the resync to stall waiting
for STRIPE_INSYNC to be set. If this were happening, then STRIPE_SYNCING
would be set and handle_issuing_new_read_requests would cause all
available blocks to eventually be read, at which point prexor would never
be used on that stripe any more and STRIPE_INSYNC would eventually be set.
echo repair > /sys/block/mdN/md/sync_action will correct arrays that may
have lost this race.

- Use class_{create,destroy} not class_{register,unregister}.
- Use device_{create,destroy} not device_{register,unregister}.
- Free the per-device data only when TWO conditions are true:
* Driver is unbound from underlying SPI device, and
* Device is no longer open (new)
Also, spi_{get,set}_drvdata not dev_{get,set}_drvdata for simpler code.

the timer function will set timer_due to 1 and exit before the vcpu falls

There are potential locking problem in enable_sie. We take the task_lock
and the mmap_sem. As exit_mm uses the same locks vice versa, this triggers
a lockdep warning.
The second problem is that dup_mm and mmput might sleep, so we must not
hold the task_lock at that moment.
The solution is to dup the mm unconditional and use the task_lock before and
afterwards to check if we can use the new mm. dup_mm and mmput are called
outside the task_lock, but we run update_mm while holding the task_lock,
protection us against ptrace.

The hypercall instructions on Intel and AMD are different. KVM allows the
guest to choose one or the other (the default is Intel), and if the guest
chooses incorrectly, KVM will patch it at runtime to select the correct
instruction. This allows live migration between Intel and AMD machines.
This patching occurs in the x86 emulator. The current code also executes
the hypercall. Unfortunately, the tail end of the x86 emulator code also
executes, overwriting the return value of the hypercall with the original
contents of rax (which happens to be the hypercall number).
Fix not by executing the hypercall in the emulator context; instead let the
guest reissue the patched instruction and execute the hypercall via the
normal path.

When the Linux kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ=y,
the Soundblaster Audigy2 ZS Notebook PCMCIA card causes the
system hang during boot (udev stage) or when the card is hot-plug.
The CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ flag is by default 'y' with all Fedora
kernels since 2.6.23. The problem was reported as
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=326411
The issue was hunted down to the snd_emu10k1_create() routine:
/* pseudo-code */
snd_emu10k1_create(...) {
...
request_irq(... IRQF_SHARED ...) {
register the irq handler
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ
call the irq handler: snd_emu10k1_interrupt() {
poll I/O port // <---- !! system hangs
...
}
#endif
}
...
snd_emu10k1_cardbus_init(...) {
initialize I/O ports
}
...
}
The early access to I/O port in the interrupt handler causes
the freeze. Obviously it is necessary to init the I/O ports
before accessing them. This patch moves the registration of
the irq handler after the initialization of the I/O ports.

Fairly simple. "dev_use" was being allocated as a zero length array
because of bad math on 64-bit systems, causing a crash in
find_first_zero_bit(). One-liner follows:

This BIOS claims the VIA 8237 south bridge to be compatible with VIA 586,
which it is not.
Without this patch, I get the following warning while booting,
among others,

Now that's an VIA 8237 chip, so pirq_via586_get shouldn't be called
at all; adding this workaround to via_router_probe() fixes the
problem for me.
Amazingly I have a 2.6.23.8 kernel that somehow works fine ... I'll
never understand why.
