A couple of recent warning messages make it difficult for the reader to
determine exactly what is wrong. This patch adds more information to
those messages.
The messages were added by these commits:
5dea271b6d ("dm table: pass correct dev area size
to device_area_is_valid")
ea9df47cc9 ("dm table: fix blk_stack_limits arg
to use bytes not sectors")
The patch also corrects references to logical_block_size in printk format
strings from %hu to %u.

The logic to check for valid device areas is inverted relative to proper
use with iterate_devices.
The iterate_devices method calls its callback for every underlying
device in the target. If any callback returns non-zero, iterate_devices
exits immediately. But the callback device_area_is_valid() returns 0 on
error and 1 on success. The overall effect without is that an error is
issued only if every device is invalid.
This patch renames device_area_is_valid to device_area_is_invalid and
inverts the logic so that one invalid device is sufficient to raise
an error.

Implement the .iterate_devices for the origin and snapshot targets.
dm-snapshot's lack of .iterate_devices resulted in the inability to
properly establish queue_limits for both targets.
With 4K sector drives: an unfortunate side-effect of not establishing
proper limits in either targets' DM device was that IO to the devices
would fail even though both had been created without error.
Commit af4874e03e ("dm target:s introduce

Commit log for commit 517d3cc15b
("[libata] ata_piix: Enable parallel scan") says:
This patch turns on parallel scanning for the ata_piix driver.
This driver is used on most netbooks (no AHCI for cheap storage it seems).
The scan is the dominating time factor in the kernel boot for these
devices; with this flag it gets cut in half for the device I used
for testing (eeepc).
Alan took a look at the driver source and concluded that it ought to be safe
to do for this driver. Alan has also checked with the hardware team.
and it is all true but once we put all things together additional
constraints for PATA controllers show up (some hardware registers
have per-host not per-port atomicity) and we risk misprogramming
the controller.
I used the following test to check whether the issue is real:
@@ -736,8 +736,20 @@ static void piix_set_piomode(struct ata_
(timings[pio][1] << 8);
}
pci_write_config_word(dev, master_port, master_data);

+ if (ap->port_no == 0) {
+ u8 tmp = slave_data;

+ msleep(50);

+
+ dev_printk(KERN_ERR, &dev->dev, "PATA parallel scan "
+ "race detected\n");
+ }
pci_write_config_byte(dev, slave_port, slave_data);
+ }
/* Ensure the UDMA bit is off - it will be turned back on if
UDMA is selected */
and it indeed triggered the error message.
Lets fix all such races by adding an extra locking to ->set_piomode
and ->set_dmamode methods for PATA controllers.
[ Alan: would be better to take the host lock in libata-core for these
cases so that we fix all the adapters in one swoop. "Looks fine as a
temproary quickfix tho" ]

When setting the same GPIO number, multiple IRQ shared requests will be
done without freing the previous request. It will also try to free a
failed request or an already freed IRQ if 0 was written to the gpio file.
All these oops and leaks were fixed with the following solution: keep the
previous allocated GPIO (if any) still allocated in case the new request
fails. The alternative solution would desallocate the previous allocated
GPIO and set gpio as 0.

If the BIOS reports an invalid throttling state (which seems to be
fairly common after system boot), a reset is done to state T0.
Because of a check in acpi_processor_get_throttling_ptc(), the reset
never actually gets executed, which results in the error reoccurring
on every access of for example /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling.
Add a 'force' option to acpi_processor_set_throttling() to ensure
the reset really takes effect.

add a null terminating byte '\0'; So in functions
like this one (wmi_query_block):
char wc[4]="WC";

...
the length of wc should be n+1 (wc[5]) or stack protection
fault will arise. This is not noticeable when stack protection is
disabled,but , isn't good either.

The return value of the get_temp function is not checked when doing a
thermal zone update. This may lead to a critical shutdown if get_temp
fails and the content of the temp variable is incorrectly set higher than
the critical trip point.
This has been observed on a system with incorrect ACPI implementation
where the corresponding methods were not serialized and therefore
sometimes triggered ACPI errors (AE_ALREADY_EXISTS). The following
critical shutdowns indicated a temperature of 2097 C, which was obviously
wrong.
The patch adds a return value check that jumps over all trip point
evaluations printing a warning if get_temp fails. The trip points are
evaluated again on the next polling interval with successful get_temp
execution.

clockevent: Prevent dead lock on clockevents_lock
timers: Drop write permission on /proc/timer_list
When I rewrote tty ldisc code to use proper reference counts (commits
65b770468e and cbe9352fa0) in order to avoid a race with hangup, the
test-program that Eric Biederman used to trigger the original problem
seems to have exposed another long-standing bug: the hangup code did the
'tty_ldisc_halt()' to stop any buffer flushing activity, but unlike the
other call sites it never actually flushed any pending work.
As a result, if you get just the right timing, the pending work may be
just about to execute (ie the timer has already triggered and thus
cancel_delayed_work() was a no-op), when we then re-initialize the ldisc
from under it.
That, in turn, results in various random problems, usually seen as a
NULL pointer dereference in run_timer_softirq() or a BUG() in
worker_thread (but it can be almost anything).
Fix it by adding the required 'flush_scheduled_work()' after doing the
tty_ldisc_halt() (this also requires us to move the ldisc halt to before
taking the ldisc mutex in order to avoid a deadlock with the workqueue
executing do_tty_hangup, which requires the mutex).
The locking should be cleaned up one day (the requirement to do this
outside the ldisc_mutex is very annoying, and weakens the lock), but
that's a larger and separate undertaking.

and sdvo-non-tv and crt are allowed to share one. The patch moves
sharing judgment into differnet output functions, and sets the right
clone bit.
This fixes both HDMI outputs choosing the same pipe.
