7637c9259f drivers/staging/olpc_dcon: convert to new cs5535 gpio API
Drop the old geode_gpio crud, as well as the raw outl() calls; instead,
use the Linux GPIO API where possible, and the cs5535_gpio API in other
places.

Note that we don't actually clean up the driver properly yet (once loaded,
it always remains loaded).  That'll come later..

This patch is necessary for building the driver.

1b912c1bca drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c: add some additional cs5535-specific GPIO functionality
This adds (well, re-adds actually) handling for events/IRQs through cs5535
GPIOs.  In the wild and wooly world of CS5535, setup_event() is for
assigning an IRQ to a GPIO filter/event pair, and set_irq() sets up the
pair to trigger IRQs.

These should really only be used in highly platform-specific drivers (such
as OLPC's DCON driver).  Sadly, because set_irq() uses MSRs, this causes
the driver to become X86-specific.

2fb08e6ca9 rtc-cmos: fix suspend/resume
rtc-cmos was setting suspend/resume hooks at the device_driver level.
However, the platform bus code (drivers/base/platform.c) only looks for
resume hooks at the dev_pm_ops level, or within the platform_driver.

Switch rtc_cmos to use dev_pm_ops so that suspend/resume code is executed
again.

Paul said:

: The user visible symptom in our (XO laptop) case was that rtcwake would
: fail to wake the laptop.  The RTC alarm would expire, but the wakeup
: wasn't unmasked.
:
: As for severity, the impact may have been reduced because if I recall
: correctly, the bug only affected platforms with CONFIG_PNP disabled.

19412ce9fc drivers/rtc/rtc-omap.c: fix a memory leak
request_mem_region() will call kzalloc to allocate memory for struct
resource.  release_resource() unregisters the resource but does not free

memory leak.

554ec37aca vgacon: check for efi machine
It seems there is a small problem of VGA palette corruption on EFI
machine.  When the kernel initializes the architecture, it checks if the
machine is a EFI machine and assumes that a VGA console can exist.

When it initializes the console in vgacon_startup it checks if it can
really use the VGA console.  I think this is where a check is missing.
Currently, the function can fail if a VESA boot mode is detected but not if
a EFI boot mode was used.

Thus vgacon_startup() doesn't fail and initialize the video card for a real
VGA mode.  This function changes the first 16entries of the VGA palette.

When the efifb driver kicks in, the palette is not restored to default
ramp value, thus the 16 first entry remain in a modified state.  The
following patch prevent this corruption.

- the hasvdso field in struct linux_binfmt is unused, so remove it and
  the only initialization of it

- the elf_map CPP symbol is not defined anywhere in the kernel, so
  remove an unnecessary #ifndef elf_map

- reduce excessive indentation in elf_format's initializer

- add missing spaces, remove extraneous spaces

No functional changes, but tested on x86 (32 and 64 bit), powerpc (32 and

On some architectures __kernel_suseconds_t is int.  On these archs struct
timeval has padding bytes at the end.  This struct is copied to userspace
with these padding bytes uninitialized.  This leads to leaking of contents

ab6c937dba scripts/get_maintainer.pl: use --git-fallback more often

Turns out this is an arguable defect in the script.

The MAINTAINERS entry for mm is:

MEMORY MANAGEMENT
L:	linux-mm@kvack.org
W:	http://www.linux-mm.org
S:	Maintained
F:	include/linux/mm.h
F:	mm/

There's a maintainer entry, but no named individual, so the script doesn't
use git history via --git-fallback.

This is also a defect for MAINTAINERS with status entries marked "Orphan"
or "Odd fixes".

The script now checks a section for any "M:" entry and that an "S:" entry
is supported or maintained.  If both those conditions are not satisified,
use --git-fallback as appropriate.

This change based on the code of commit

fb842b00c5 printk: use RCU to prevent potential lock contention in kmsg_dump
dump_list_lock is used to protect dump_list in kmsg_dumper implementation,
kmsg_dump() uses it to traverse dump_list too.  But if there is contention
on the lock, kmsg_dump() will fail, and the valuable kernel message may be
lost.

This patch solves this issue with RCU.  Because kmsg_dump() only read the
list, no lock is needed in kmsg_dump().  So that kmsg_dump() will never
fail because of lock contention.

455cd5ab30 kptr_restrict for hiding kernel pointers from unprivileged users
Add the %pK printk format specifier and the /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
sysctl.

The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

Also, move on_each_cpu() to kernel/smp.c, it is strange to put it in
kernel/softirq.c.

For arch which doesn't use USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS, e.g.  blackfin, only
on_each_cpu() is compiled.

71a9048448 include/linux/kernel.h: abs(): fix handling of 32-bit unsigneds on 64-bit
Michal reports:

In the framebuffer subsystem the abs() macro is often used as a part of
the calculation of a Manhattan metric, which in turn is used as a measure
of similarity between video modes.  The arguments of abs() are sometimes
unsigned numbers.  This worked fine until commit a49c59c0 ("Make sure the
value in abs() does not get truncated if it is greater than 2^32:) , which
changed the definition of abs() to prevent truncation.  As a result of
this change, in the following piece of code:

u32 a = 0, b = 1;
u32 c = abs(a - b);

'c' will end up with a value of 0xffffffff instead of the expected 0x1.

A problem caused by this change and visible by the end user is that
framebuffer drivers relying on functions from modedb.c will fail to find
high resolution video modes similar to that explicitly requested by the
user if an exact match cannot be found (see e.g.

Fix this by special-casing `long' types within abs().

This patch reduces x86_64 code size a bit - drivers/video/uvesafb.o shrunk
by 15 bytes, presumably because it is doing abs() on 4-byte quantities,
and expanding those to 8-byte longs adds code.

testcase:

#define oldabs(x) ({				\
		long __x = (x);			\
		(__x < 0) ? -__x : __x;		\
	})

#define newabs(x) ({						\
		long ret;					\
		if (sizeof(x) == sizeof(long)) {		\
			long __x = (x);				\
			ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x;		\
		} else {					\
			int __x = (x);				\
			ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x;		\
		}						\
		ret;						\
	})

typedef unsigned int u32;

main()
{
	u32 a = 0;
	u32 b = 1;
	u32 oldc = oldabs(a - b);
	u32 newc = newabs(a - b);

	printf("%u %u\n", oldc, newc);
}

3e5c12409c set_rtc_mmss: show warning message only once
Occasionally the system gets into a state where the CMOS clock has gotten
slightly ahead of current time and the periodic update of RTC fails.  The
message is a nuisance and repeats spamming the log.

  See: http://www.ntp.org/ntpfaq/NTP-s-trbl-spec.htm#Q-LINUX-SET-RTC-MMSS

Rather than just removing the message, make it show only once and reduce
severity since it indicates a normal and non urgent condition.

04c6862c05 kmsg_dump: add kmsg_dump() calls to the reboot, halt, poweroff and emergency_restart paths
We need to know the reason why system rebooted in support service.
However, we can't inform our customers of the reason because final
messages are lost on current Linux kernel.

This patch improves the situation above because the final messages are
saved by adding kmsg_dump() to reboot, halt, poweroff and
emergency_restart path.

fc2d557c74 kmsg_dump: constrain mtdoops and ramoops to perform their actions only for KMSG_DUMP_PANIC
This series aims to develop logging facility for enterprise use.

It is important to save kernel messages reliably on enterprise system
because they are helpful for diagnosing system.

This series add kmsg_dump() to the paths loosing kernel messages.  The use
case is the following.

[Use case of reboot/poweroff/halt/emergency_restart]

 My company has often experienced the followings in our support service.
 - Customer's system suddenly reboots.
 - Customers ask us to investigate the reason of the reboot.

We recognize the fact itself because boot messages remain in
/var/log/messages.  However, we can't investigate the reason why the
system rebooted, because the last messages don't remain.  And off course
we can't explain the reason.

We can solve above problem with this patch as follows.

 Case1: reboot with command
   - We can see "Restarting system with command:" or ""Restarting system.".

 Case2: halt with command
   - We can see "System halted.".

 Case3: poweroff with command
   - We can see " Power down.".

 Case4: emergency_restart with sysrq.
   - We can see "Sysrq:" outputted in __handle_sysrq().

 Case5: emergency_restart with softdog.
   - We can see "Initiating system reboot" in watchdog_fire().

So, we can distinguish the reason of reboot, poweroff, halt and emergency_restart.

If customer executed reboot command, you may think the customer should
know the fact.  However, they often claim they don't execute the command
when they rebooted system by mistake.

No message remains on the current Linux kernel, so we can't show the proof
to the customer.  This patch improves this situation.

This patch:

Alters mtdoops and ramoops to perform their actions only for
KMSG_DUMP_PANIC, KMSG_DUMP_OOPS and KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC because they would
like to log crashes only.

aff5ce6ca8 drivers/video/backlight/l4f00242t03.c: fix reset sequence
The reset command is part of the init sequence and it take effect
only if the lcd is powered.

The effect of the bug was that the sequence:
set lcd power_state to FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN
set lcd power_state to FB_BLANK_UNBLANK
Did not produced a complete reboot of the LCD which was showing fuzzy
colours.

This was not experienced before implementing correctly all the LCD power
states with the patch [1].  Since before the patch [1] the regulators were
not touched and the LCD shutdown was reached with a register write.  After
the patch [1] a complete boot sequence with an initial reset is needed for
the display every time the LCD is powered up.

9f9455ae71 leds: add output inversion option to backlight trigger
Extend the LED backlight tirgger driver with an option that allows for
inverting the trigger output polarity.

With the invertion option provided, I (ab)use the backlight trigger for
driving a LED that indicates LCD display blank condtition on my Amstrad
Delta videophone.  Since the machine has no dedicated power LED, it was
not possible to distinguish if the display was blanked, or the machine was
turned off, without touching it.

The invert sysfs control is patterned after a similiar function of the GPIO
trigger driver.
