Commit 835f2f5 ("staging: zcache: enable zcache to be built/loaded as
a module") introduced an incorrect handling of "zcache=" parameter.Inside zcache_comp_init() function, zcache_comp_name variable is
checked for being empty. If not empty, the above variable is tested
for being compatible with Crypto API. Unfortunately, after that
function ends unconditionally (by the "goto out" directive) and returns:
- non-zero value if verification succeeded, wrongly indicating an error
- zero value if verification failed, falsely informing that function
zcache_comp_init() ended properly.A solution to this problem is as following:
1. Move the "goto out" directive inside the "if (!ret)" statement
2. In case that crypto_has_comp() returned 0, change the value of ret
to non-zero before "goto out" to indicate an error.This patch replaces an earlier one from Michal Hocko (based on report
from Cristian Rodriguez):http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/102484
It also addressed the same issue but didn't fix the zcache_comp_init()
for case when the compressor data passed to "zcache=" option was invalid
or unsupported.Signed-off-by: Piotr Sarna

The usage of strict_strtol() is not preferred, because
strict_strtol() is obsolete. Thus, kstrtos32() should be
used in order to convert a string to s32. Also, error handling
is added to get rid of a __must_check warning.This fixes a memory corruption bug as well.

In the situation that a writer fails to copy data from userspace it will reset
the write offset to the value it had before it went to sleep. This discarding
any messages written while aquiring the mutex.Therefore the reset offset needs to be retrieved after acquiring the mutex.

`do_cmd_ioctl()` is called with the comedi device's mutex locked to
process the `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl to set up comedi's asynchronous command
handling on a comedi subdevice. `comedi_read()` and `comedi_write()`
are the `read` and `write` handlers for the comedi device, but do not
lock the mutex (for performance reasons, as some things can hold the
mutex for quite a long time).There is a race condition if `comedi_read()` or `comedi_write()` is
running at the same time and for the same file object and comedi
subdevice as `do_cmd_ioctl()`. `do_cmd_ioctl()` sets the subdevice's
`busy` pointer to the file object way before it sets the `SRF_RUNNING` flag
in the subdevice's `runflags` member. `comedi_read() and
`comedi_write()` check the subdevice's `busy` pointer is pointing to the
current file object, then if the `SRF_RUNNING` flag is not set, will call
`do_become_nonbusy()` to shut down the asyncronous command. Bad things
can happen if the asynchronous command is being shutdown and set up at
the same time.To prevent the race, don't set the `busy` pointer until
after the `SRF_RUNNING` flag has been set. Also, make sure the mutex is
held in `comedi_read()` and `comedi_write()` while calling
`do_become_nonbusy()` in order to avoid moving the race condition to a
point within that function.Change some error handling `goto cleanup` statements in `do_cmd_ioctl()`
to simple `return -ERRFOO` statements as a result of changing when the
`busy` pointer is set.Signed-off-by: Ian Abbott

Comedi devices can do blocking read() or write() (or poll()) if an
asynchronous command has been set up, blocking for data (for read()) or
buffer space (for write()). Various events associated with the
asynchronous command will wake up the blocked reader or writer (or
poller). It is also possible to force the asynchronous command to
terminate by issuing a `COMEDI_CANCEL` ioctl. That shuts down the
asynchronous command, but does not currently wake up the blocked reader
or writer (or poller). If the blocked task could be woken up, it would
see that the command is no longer active and return. The caller of the
`COMEDI_CANCEL` ioctl could attempt to wake up the blocked task by
sending a signal, but that's a nasty workaround.Change `do_cancel_ioctl()` to wake up the wait queue after it returns
from `do_cancel()`. `do_cancel()` can propagate an error return value
from the low-level comedi driver's cancel routine, but it always shuts
the command down regardless, so `do_cancel_ioctl()` can wake up he wait
queue regardless of the return value from `do_cancel()`.Signed-off-by: Ian Abbott

Pull staging tree fixes from Greg KH:
"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. :)"* tag 'staging-3.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging:

…/jic23/iio into staging-linus
Jonathan writes:
The first round of IIO fixes for the 3.11 cycle.
This set is larger than I would like, partly due to my lack of review
time in the weeks before the merge window and partly because a
couple of large drivers and the subsystem as a whole seem to be
getting a lot more exposure and testing recently.1) A long term bug in trigger handling gave a double free of the device.
2) Wrong return value handling means offsets are ignored in
iio_convert_raw_to_processed_unlocked.3) The iio_channel_has_info utility function was incorrectly updated
during the recent info_mask split, this is now fixed.4) mxs-lradc has a couple of little fixes.
5) A couple of missing .driver_module entries meant that drivers
could be removed from underneath their users.6) Error path fixes for ad7303 and lis3l02dq.
7) The scale value for presure in the lps331ap driver was out by
a factor of 100. -
This driver is not being updated as the specifications are not able to
be gotten from CSR or anyone else. Without those, getting this driver
into proper mergable shape is going to be impossible. So remove the
driver from the tree.If the specifications ever become available, this patch can be reverted
and the driver fixed up properly.Reported-by: Lidza Louina

"This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
trickeled in.Highlights:
1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network
device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

from Cong Wang.9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport. In particular,
support receiving on multiple UDP ports.10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code. From Daniel
Borkmann.11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
devices. From Nicolas Dichtel.12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
From Daniel Borkmann.13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
from Johannes Berg.14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
by using an rbtree. From Eric Dumazet.15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
Cheng.16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
Horman.17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
pointer that's passed into them. Use this to properly handle
network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event(). From Jiri
Pirko and Timo Teräs.18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
Huewe.19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
O(1) calculation instead. From Eric Dumazet.20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
like ipv4. From Nicolas Dichtel.21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.
22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding. From
Willem de Bruijn.23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
Dumazet.24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead. Also
from Eric Dumazet.25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
from Vlad Yasevich.26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets. From Lorenzo Colitti.
27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
too, from David Majnemer.28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in
upd_v6_push_pending_frames(). From Hannes Frederic Sowa.30) Fix L2TP sequence number handling bugs, from James Chapman."

Fix various weird constructions of strncpy(dst, src, strlen(src)).
Length limits should be about the space available in the destination,
not repurposed as a method to either always include or always exclude a
trailing NULL byte. Either the NULL should always be copied (using
strlcpy), or it should not be copied (using something like memcpy).
Readable code should not depend on the weird behavior of strncpy when it

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
remains the most active patch submitter.To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the
freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
tasks a bit less heavy weight.We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
and a bunch of cleanups all over.Highlights:
- Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.
It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example,
if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
alternative and it had to be addressed.However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one
handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
patient who's riding a bike.So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
(a month ago), nobody has complained.As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
code.- Lighter weight freezing of tasks.
These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide
to report a failure is reduced too.Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).- cpufreq updates
First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The
fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
has identified the root cause.Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu.Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.- ACPICA update
A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.
During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume
regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes
those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
Zhang Rui.- cpuidle updates
New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.
Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
Lezcano.- ACPI power management updates
Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
routine.- ACPI documentation updates
Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
updated by Hanjun Guo.- Assorted ACPI updates
We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
reverting commit 9f29ab11ddbf ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers
against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move
the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to
the core.A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is
introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be
fixed on some systems.A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by
Mika Westerberg.The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid
situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is
returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From
Jeff Wu.Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to
the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that
driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues.
Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus.The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and
put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly.Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi
Kani.- Assorted power management updates
The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return
values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call
rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the
overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not
necessary any more after that modification).The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect
the "runtime idle" behavior change).New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara
().PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu.
Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie
Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan.- devfreq updates
New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan.
Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham,

Pull ARM SoC driver specific changes from Arnd Bergmann:
"These changes are all driver specific and cross over between arm-soc
contents and some other subsystem, in these cases cpufreq, crypto,
dma, pinctrl, mailbox and usb, and the subsystem owners agreed to have
these changes merged through arm-soc.As we proceed to untangle the dependencies between platform code and
driver code, the amount of changes in this category is fortunately
shrinking, for 3.11 we have 16 branches here and 101 non-merge
changesets, the majority of which are for the stedma40 dma engine
driver used in the ux500 platform. Cleaning up that code touches
multiple subsystems, but gets rid of the dependency in the end.The mailbox code moved out from mach-omap2 to drivers/mailbox is an
intermediate step and is still omap specific at the moment. Patches
exist to generalize the subsystem and add other drivers with the same
