drm/i915: select framebuffer support automatically
Migration helper.
The i915 driver recently added a 'depends on FB' rule to its
Kconfig entry - which silently turns off DRM_I915 if someone
has a working config but no CONFIG_FB selected, and upgrades
to the latest upstream kernel.
Norbert Preining reported this problem:
Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12599
Subject : dri /dev node disappeared with 2.6.29-rc1
So change it to "select FB", which auto-selects framebuffer
support. This way the driver keeps working, regardless of
whether FB was enabled before or not.
Kconfig select's of interactive options can be problematic to
dependencies and can cause build breakages - but in this case
it's safe because it's a leaf entry with no dependencies of its
own.
( There is some minor circular dependency fallout as FB_I810
and FB_INTEL also used 'depends on FB' constructs - update
those to "select FB" too. )

In
dc1336ff4fe08ae7cfe8301bfd7f0b2cfd31d20a (set vblank enable flag correctly
across IRQ uninstall), we made sure drivers that uninstall their interrupt
handler set the vblank enabled flag correctly, so that when interrupts are
re-enabled, vblank interrupts & counts work as expected. However I missed the
last_vblank field: it needs to be updated as well, otherwise, at the next
drm_update_vblank_count we'll end up comparing a current count to a stale
one (the last one captured by the disable function), which may trigger the
wraparound handling, leading to a jumpy counter and hangs in drm_wait_vblank.
The jumpy counter can prevent the DRM_WAIT_ON from returning success if the
difference between the current count and the requested count is greater than
2^23, leading to timeouts or hangs, if the ioctl is restarted in a loop (as
is the case in libdrm < 2.4.4).

ACPICA: Fix table entry truncation calculation
During early boot, ACPI RSDT/XSDT table entries are gathered into the

held in the 'initial_tables[]' array, the message "Truncating N table

When using 32-bit "int $0x80" entry for a bogus syscall number,
the return value is not correctly set to -ENOSYS. This only happens
when neither syscall-audit nor syscall tracing is enabled (i.e., never
seen if auditd ever started). Test program:
/* gcc -o int80-badsys -m32 -g int80-badsys.c

Checking for VM_READ optimizes out the case where get_user() would fail

CRED: Fix SUID exec regression
The patch:
commit
a6f76f23d297f70e2a6b3ec607f7aeeea9e37e8d
CRED: Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials
moved the place in which the 'safeness' of a SUID/SGID exec was performed to
before de_thread() was called. This means that LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE is now
calculated incorrectly. This flag is set if any of the usage counts for
fs_struct, files_struct and sighand_struct are greater than 1 at the time the
determination is made. All of which are true for threads created by the
pthread library.
However, since we wish to make the security calculation before irrevocably
damaging the process so that we can return it an error code in the case where
we decide we want to reject the exec request on this basis, we have to make the
determination before calling de_thread().
So, instead, we count up the number of threads (CLONE_THREAD) that are sharing
our fs_struct (CLONE_FS), files_struct (CLONE_FILES) and sighand_structs
(CLONE_SIGHAND/CLONE_THREAD) with us. These will be killed by de_thread() and
so can be discounted by check_unsafe_exec().
We do have to be careful because CLONE_THREAD does not imply FS or FILES.
We _assume_ that there will be no extra references to these structs held by the
threads we're going to kill.
This can be tested with the attached pair of programs. Build the two programs
using the Makefile supplied, and run ./test1 as a non-root user. If
successful, you should see something like:

vfs: Don't call attach_nobh_buffers() with an empty list
This is a modification of a patch by Bill Pemberton <wfp5p@virginia.edu>
nobh_write_end() could call attach_nobh_buffers() with head == NULL.
This would result in a trap when attach_nobh_buffers() attempted to

This can be illustrated by running the writev01 testcase from LTP on jfs.
This error was introduced by commit
5b41e74a "vfs: fix data leak in
nobh_write_end()". That patch did not take into account that if
PageMappedToDisk() is true upon entry to nobh_write_begin(), then no
buffers will be allocated for the page. In that case, we won't have to
worry about a failed write leaving unitialized data in the page.
Of course, head != NULL implies !page_has_buffers(page), so no need to
test both.

So move the test from 'hot_add' into 'bind_rdev_to_array' which is

md: Fix a bug in linear.c causing which_dev() to return the wrong device.
ab5bd5cbc8d4b868378d062eed3d4240930fbb86 introduced the following
bug in linear software raid for large arrays on 32 bit machines:
which_dev() computes the device holding a given sector by shifting
down the sector number to a 32 bit range, dividing by the array
spacing and looking up the resulting index in the hash table of
the array.
Because the computed index might be slightly too small, a loop at
the end of which_dev() increases the index until the given sector
actually falls into the range of the device associated with that index.
The changes of the above mentioned commit caused this loop to check
whether the _index_ rather than the sector number is small enough,
effectively bypassing the loop and thus possibly returning the wrong
device.
As reported by Simon Kirby, this leads to errors such as
linear_make_request: Sector
2340486136 out of bounds on dev sdi:
156301312 sectors, offset
2109870464
Fix this bug by introducing a local variable for the index so that
the variable containing the passed sector is left unchanged.

md: Allow read error in a single drive raid1 to be passed up.
If a raid1 only has a single working device and gets a read error,
we choose to simply return that error up to the filesystem (or whatever)
rather than failing the whole array.
However the codes doesn't quite do that. We attempt a readbalance
which allocates the same drive, so we retry the read - indefinitely.
Instead: If read_balance in the error case chooses the same drive that just
failed, treat it as a failure and don't retry.

To handle pread correctly we can't assume that f_pos is where we left it

seq_read and do thus some day support pread().

In the case where pfn_valid returns 0 for a pfn at the beginning of

wait: prevent exclusive waiter starvation
With exclusive waiters, every process woken up through the wait queue must
ensure that the next waiter down the line is woken when it has finished.
Interruptible waiters don't do that when aborting due to a signal. And if
an aborting waiter is concurrently woken up through the waitqueue, noone
will ever wake up the next waiter.
This has been observed with __wait_on_bit_lock() used by
lock_page_killable(): the first contender on the queue was aborting when
the actual lock holder woke it up concurrently. The aborted contender
didn't acquire the lock and therefor never did an unlock followed by
waking up the next waiter.
Add abort_exclusive_wait() which removes the process' wait descriptor from
the waitqueue, iff still queued, or wakes up the next waiter otherwise.
It does so under the waitqueue lock. Racing with a wake up means the
aborting process is either already woken (removed from the queue) and will
wake up the next waiter, or it will remove itself from the queue and the
concurrent wake up will apply to the next waiter after it.
Use abort_exclusive_wait() in __wait_event_interruptible_exclusive() and
__wait_on_bit_lock() when they were interrupted by other means than a wake
up through the queue.
