Peter Zijlstra c93dc84cbe perf/x86: Add a microcode revision check for SNB-PEBS
Recent Intel microcode resolved the SNB-PEBS issues, so conditionally
enable PEBS on SNB hardware depending on the microcode revision.

Thanks to Stephane for figuring out the various microcode revisions.

Robert Richter b1dc3c4820 perf/x86/amd: Unify AMD's generic and family 15h pmus
There is no need for keeping separate pmu structs. We can enable
amd_{get,put}_event_constraints() functions also for family 15h event.

The advantage is that there is only a single pmu struct for all AMD
cpus. This patch introduces functions to setup the pmu to enabe core
performance counters or counter constraints.

Also, cpuid checks are used instead of family checks where
possible. Thus, it enables the code independently of cpu families if
the feature flag is set.

Robert Richter a1eac7ac90 perf/x86: Move Intel specific code to intel_pmu_init()
There is some Intel specific code in the generic x86 path. Move it to
intel_pmu_init().

Since p4 and p6 pmus don't have fixed counters we may skip the check
in case such a pmu is detected.

Linus Torvalds dab058fd5f floppy: cancel any pending fd_timeouts before adding a new one
In commit 070ad7e793 ("floppy: convert to delayed work and
single-thread wq") the 'fd_timeout' timer was converted to a delayed
work.  However, the "del_timer(&fd_timeout)" was lost in the process,
and any previous pending timeouts would stay active when we then
re-queued the timeout.

This resulted in the floppy probe sequence having a (stale) 20s timeout
rather than the intended 3s timeout, and thus made booting with the
floppy driver (but no actual floppy controller) take much longer than it
should.

Of course, there's little reason for most people to compile the floppy
driver into the kernel at all, which is why most people never noticed.

Canceling the delayed work where we used to do the del_timer() fixes the
issue, and makes the floppy probing use the proper new timeout instead.
The three second timeout is still very wasteful, but better than the 20s
one.

Rajendra Nayak 863b13271f clk: fix parent validation in __clk_set_parent()
The below commit introduced a bug in __clk_set_parent()
which could cause it to *skip* the parent validation
which makes sure the parent passed to the api is a valid
one.

    commit 7975059db5
    Author: Rajendra Nayak <rnayak@ti.com>
    Date:   Wed Jun 6 14:41:31 2012 +0530

        clk: Allow late cache allocation for clk->parents

This was identified by the following compiler warning..

    drivers/clk/clk.c: In function '__clk_set_parent':
    drivers/clk/clk.c:1083:5: warning: 'i' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

.. as reported by Marc Kleine-Budde.

There were various options discussed on how to fix this, one
being initing 'i' to clk->num_parents, but the below approach
was found to be more appropriate as it also makes the 'parent
validation' code simpler to read.

Joe Thornber 0d200aefd4 dm thin: commit metadata before creating metadata snapshot
Userland sometimes sees a corrupt metadata block if metadata is changing
rapidly when a metadata snapshot is reserved for userland,  To make the
problem go away, commit before we take the metadata snapshot (which is a
sensible thing to do anyway).

The checksums mean userland spots this corruption immediately so there's
no risk of acting on incorrect data.  No corruption exists from the
kernel's point of view, and thin_check passes after pool shutdown.

I believe this is to do with shared blocks at the first level of the
{device, mapping} btree.  Prior to the metadata-snap support no sharing
at this level was possible, so this patch is only required after commit
cc8394d86f ("dm thin: provide userspace
access to pool metadata").

Daniel Vetter 9f846a16d2 drm/i915: kick any firmware framebuffers before claiming the gtt
Especially vesafb likes to map everything as uc- (yikes), and if that
mapping hangs around still while we try to map the gtt as wc the
kernel will downgrade our request to uc-, resulting in abyssal
performance.

Unfortunately we can't do this as early as readon does (i.e. as the
first thing we do when initializing the hw) because our fb/mmio space
region moves around on a per-gen basis. So I've had to move it below
the gtt initialization, but that seems to work, too. The important
thing is that we do this before we set up the gtt wc mapping.

Now an altogether different question is why people compile their
kernels with vesafb enabled, but I guess making things just work isn't
bad per se ...

v2:
- s/radeondrmfb/inteldrmfb/
- fix up error handling

v3: Kill #ifdef X86, this is Intel after all. Noticed by Ben Widawsky.

v4: Jani Nikula complained about the pointless bool primary
initialization.

v5: Don't oops if we can't allocate, noticed by Chris Wilson.

v6: Resolve conflicts with agp rework and fixup whitespace.

This is commit e188719a28 in drm-next.

Backport to 3.5 -fixes queue requested by Dave Airlie - due to grub
using vesa on fedora their initrd seems to load vesafb before loading
the real kms driver. So tons more people actually experience a
dead-slow gpu. Hence also the Cc: stable.

Takashi Iwai 7b668ebe2f drm: edid: Don't add inferred modes with higher resolution
When a monitor EDID doesn't give the preferred bit, driver assumes
that the mode with the higest resolution and rate is the preferred
mode.  Meanwhile the recent changes for allowing more modes in the
GFT/CVT ranges give actually more modes, and some modes may be over
the native size.  Thus such a mode would be picked up as the preferred
mode although it's no native resolution.

For avoiding such a problem, this patch limits the addition of
inferred modes by checking not to be greater than other modes.
Also, it checks the duplicated mode entry at the same time.

NeilBrown b357f04a67 md: fix up plugging (again).
The value returned by "mddev_check_plug" is only valid until the
next 'schedule' as that will unplug things.  This could happen at any
call to mempool_alloc.
So just calling mddev_check_plug at the start doesn't really make
sense.

So call it just before, or just after, queuing things for the thread.
As the action that happens at unplug is to wake the thread, this makes
lots of sense.
If we cannot add a plug (which requires a small GFP_ATOMIC alloc) we
wake thread immediately.

RAID5 is a bit different.  Requests are queued for the thread and the
thread is woken by release_stripe.  So we don't need to wake the
thread on failure.
However the thread doesn't perform certain actions when there is any
active plug, so it is important to install a plug before waking the
thread.  So for RAID5 we install the plug *before* queuing the request
and waking the thread.

Without this patch it is possible for raid1 or raid10 to queue a
request without then waking the thread, resulting in the array locking
up.

Also change raid10 to only flush_pending_write when there are not
active plugs, just like raid1.

This patch is suitable for 3.0 or later.  I plan to submit it to
-stable, but I'll like to let it spend a few weeks in mainline
first to be sure it is completely safe.

NeilBrown f456309106 md: support re-add of recovering devices.
We currently only allow a device to be re-added if it appear to be
in-sync.  This is overly restrictive as it may be desirable to re-add
a device that is in the middle of recovery.

So remove the test for "InSync" - the test on rdev->raid_disk is
sufficient to ensure that the re-add will succeed.

NeilBrown 32644afd89 md/raid1: fix bug in read_balance introduced by hot-replace
When we added hot_replace we doubled the number of devices
that could be in a RAID1 array.  So we doubled how far read_balance
would search.  Unfortunately we didn't double the point at which
it looped back to the beginning - so it effectively loops over
all non-replacement disks twice.
This doesn't cause bad behaviour, but it pointless and means we
never read from replacement devices.

the two bits have relationship. A delayed stripe can be moved to hold list only

If a RAID10 has an odd number of chunks - as might happen when there

not mirrored.  We don't store data there, but when recovering the last

non-existent location.  This results in an error, and the recovery
aborts.

Anton Blanchard bc1d770291 powerpc/xmon: Use cpumask iterator to avoid warning
We have a bug report where the kernel hits a warning in the cpumask
code:

WARNING: at include/linux/cpumask.h:107

Which is:
        WARN_ON_ONCE(cpu >= nr_cpumask_bits);

The backtrace is:
        cpu_cmd
        cmds
        xmon_core
        xmon
        die

xmon is iterating through 0 to NR_CPUS. I'm not sure why we are still
open coding this but iterating above nr_cpu_ids is definitely a bug.

This patch iterates through all possible cpus, in case we issue a
system reset and CPUs in an offline state call in.

Perhaps the old code was trying to handle CPUs that were in the
partition but were never started (eg kexec into a kernel with an
nr_cpus= boot option). They are going to die way before we get into
xmon since we haven't set any kernel state up for them.

Linus Torvalds ca24a14557 Merge branch 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm
Pull two ARM fixes from Russell King:
 "It's been fairly quiet with the fixes.  Just two this time.  One fixes
  a long standing problem with KALLSYMS needing an additional pass, and
  the other sorts a problem with the vmalloc space interacting with
  static IO mappings."

* 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm:
  ARM: 7438/1: fill possible PMD empty section gaps
  ARM: 7428/1: Prevent KALLSYM size mismatch on ARM.

Borislav Petkov 3d8986bc7f x86, microcode: Make reload interface per system
The reload interface should be per-system so that a full system ucode
reload happens (on each core) when doing

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload

Move it to the cpu subsys directory instead of it being per-cpu.

Borislav Petkov c9fc3f778a x86, microcode: Sanitize per-cpu microcode reloading interface
Microcode reloading in a per-core manner is a very bad idea for both
major x86 vendors. And the thing is, we have such interface with which
we can end up with different microcode versions applied on different
cores of an otherwise homogeneous wrt (family,model,stepping) system.

So turn off the possibility of doing that per core and allow it only
system-wide.

This is a minimal fix which we'd like to see in stable too thus the
more-or-less arbitrary decision to allow system-wide reloading only on
the BSP:

$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/microcode/reload
...

and disable the interface on the other cores:

$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu23/microcode/reload
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

Also, allowing the reload only from one CPU (the BSP in
that case) doesn't allow the reload procedure to degenerate
into an O(n^2) deal when triggering reloads from all
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/microcode/reload sysfs nodes
simultaneously.

A more generic fix will follow.
