b331def2d3 V4L/DVB (4982): Fix broken audio mode handling for line-in in msp3400.
The wrong matrix was used when an external input was selected instead of
the tuner input. The rxsubchans field was also not initialized to STEREO
for an external input. And finally the msp34xxg_detect_stereo() should
not try to detect stereo for an external input, that code is for the
tuner input only.
Together these bugs made it hit 'n miss whether you ever got stereo out
of the msp3400 for an external input.

8d1c481960 [PATCH] arch/i386/pci/mmconfig.c tlb flush fix
We use the fixmap for accessing pci config space in pci_mmcfg_read/write().
The problem is in pci_exp_set_dev_base(). It is caching a last
accessed address to avoid calling set_fixmap_nocache() whenever
pci_mmcfg_read/write() is used.

  static inline void pci_exp_set_dev_base(int bus, int devfn)
  {
	u32 dev_base = base | (bus << 20) | (devfn << 12);
	if (dev_base != mmcfg_last_accessed_device) {
		mmcfg_last_accessed_device = dev_base;
		set_fixmap_nocache(FIX_PCIE_MCFG, dev_base);
	}
  }

            cpu0                                        cpu1
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    pci_mmcfg_read("device-A")
        pci_exp_set_dev_base()
            set_fixmap_nocache()
                                              pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
                                                  pci_exp_set_dev_base()
                                                      set_fixmap_nocache()
    pci_mmcfg_read("device-B")
        pci_exp_set_dev_base()
            /* doesn't flush tlb */

But if cpus accessed the above order, the second pci_mmcfg_read() on
cpu0 doesn't flush the TLB, because "mmcfg_last_accessed_device" is
device-B.  So, second pci_mmcfg_read() on cpu0 accesses a device-A via
a previous TLB cache. This problem became the cause of several strange
behavior.

This patches fixes this situation by adds "mmcfg_last_accessed_cpu" check.

[ Alternatively, we could make a per-cpu mapping area or something. Not
  that it's probably worth it, but if we wanted to avoid all locking and
  instead just disable preemption, that would be the way to go. --Linus ]

e1d9fd2e3d [PATCH] suspend: fix suspend on single-CPU systems
Clark Williams reported that suspend doesnt work on his laptop on
2.6.20-rc1-rt kernels. The bug was introduced by the following cleanup
commit:

 commit 112cecb2cc
 Author: Siddha, Suresh B <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com>
 Date:   Wed Dec 6 20:34:31 2006 -0800

    [PATCH] suspend: don't change cpus_allowed for task initiating the suspend

because with this change 'error' is not initialized to 0 anymore, if
there are no other online CPUs. (i.e. if the system is single-CPU).

the fix is the initialize it to 0. The really weird thing is that my
version of gcc does not warn about this non-initialized variable
situation ...

(also fix the kernel printk in the error branch, it was missing a
 newline)

5c668704b7 [UDP]: Fix reversed logic in udp_get_port().
When this code was converted to use sk_for_each() the
logic for the "best hash chain length" code was reversed,
breaking everything.

The original code was of the form:

			size = 0;
			do {
				if (++size >= best_size_so_far)
					goto next;
			} while ((sk = sk->next) != NULL);
			best_size_so_far = size;
			best = result;
		next:;

and this got converted into:

			sk_for_each(sk2, node, head)
				if (++size < best_size_so_far) {
					best_size_so_far = size;
					best = result;
				}

Which does something very very different from the original.

9a036b9c33 [TCP]: Fix ambiguity in the `before' relation.
While looking at DCCP sequence numbers, I stumbled over a problem with
the following definition of before in tcp.h:

static inline int before(__u32 seq1, __u32 seq2)
{
        return (__s32)(seq1-seq2) < 0;
}

Problem: This definition suffers from an an ambiguity, i.e. always

           before(a, (a + 2^31) % 2^32)) = 1
           before((a + 2^31) % 2^32), a) = 1

         In text: when the difference between a and b amounts to 2^31,
         a is always considered `before' b, the function can not decide.
         The reason is that implicitly 0 is `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 ... 2^31

Solution: There is a simple fix, by defining before in such a way that
          0 is no longer `before' 2^31, i.e. 0 `before' 1 ... 2^31-1
          By not using the middle between 0 and 2^32, before can be made
          unambiguous.
          This is achieved by testing whether seq2-seq1 > 0 (using signed
          32-bit arithmetic).

I attach a patch to codify this. Also the `after' relation is basically
a redefinition of `before', it is now defined as a macro after before.

Back when the original NetLabel patches were being changed to use Netlink
attributes correctly some code was accidentially dropped which set all of the
undefined CIPSOv4 level and category mappings to a sentinel value.  The result
is the mappings data in the kernel contains bogus mappings which always map to
zero.  This patch restores the old/correct behavior by initializing the mapping
data to the correct sentinel value.

1fd2a25b77 NetLabel: perform input validation earlier on CIPSOv4 DOI add ops
There are a couple of cases where the user input for a CIPSOv4 DOI add
operation was not being done soon enough; the result was unexpected behavior
which was resulting in oops/panics/lockups on some platforms.  This patch moves
the existing input validation code earlier in the code path to protect against
bogus user input.

b2b2cbc4b2 [PATCH] Fix reparenting to the same thread group. (take 2)
This patch fixes the case when we reparent to a different thread in the
same thread group.  This modifies the code so that we do not send
signals and do not change the signal to send to SIGCHLD unless we have
change the thread group of our parents.  It also suppresses sending
pdeath_sig in this cas as well since the result of geppid doesn't
change.

Thanks to Oleg for spotting my bug of only fixing this for non-ptraced
tasks.

ef129412b4 [PATCH] build compile.h earlier
compile.h is created super-late in the build.  But proc_misc.c want to include
it, and it's generally not sane to have a header file in include/linux be
created at the end of the build: it's either not present or, worse, wrong for
most of the build.

So the patch arranges for compile.h to be built at the start of the build
process.  It also consolidates the compile.h rules with those for version.h
and utsname.h, so they all get built together.

I hope.  My chances of having got this right are about 2%.

0888f06ac9 [PATCH] sched: fix bad missed wakeups in the i386, x86_64, ia64, ACPI and APM idle code
Fernando Lopez-Lezcano reported frequent scheduling latencies and audio
xruns starting at the 2.6.18-rt kernel, and those problems persisted all
until current -rt kernels. The latencies were serious and unjustified by
system load, often in the milliseconds range.

After a patient and heroic multi-month effort of Fernando, where he
tested dozens of kernels, tried various configs, boot options,
test-patches of mine and provided latency traces of those incidents, the
following 'smoking gun' trace was captured by him:

                 _------=> CPU#
                / _-----=> irqs-off
               | / _----=> need-resched

               |||||     delay

  ...

  ...

   <...>-5856  0D..1  619us : trace_stop_sched_switched <<...>-5856> (37 0)

what is visible in this trace is that CPU#1 ran try_to_wake_up() for
PID:5856, it placed PID:5856 on CPU#0's runqueue and ran resched_task()
for CPU#0. But it decided to not send an IPI that no CPU - due to
TS_POLLING. But CPU#0 never woke up after its NEED_RESCHED bit was set,
and only rescheduled to PID:5856 upon the next lapic timer IRQ. The
result was a 600+ usecs latency and a missed wakeup!

the bug turned out to be an idle-wakeup bug introduced into the mainline
kernel this summer via an optimization in the x86_64 tree:

    commit 495ab9c045
    Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
    Date:   Mon Jun 26 13:59:11 2006 +0200

    [PATCH] i386/x86-64/ia64: Move polling flag into thread_info_status

    During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of
    memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations
    to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually
    no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it
    to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status.

the problem is this type of change:

        if (!hlt_counter && boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) {
-               clear_thread_flag(TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG);
+               current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
                smp_mb__after_clear_bit();
                while (!need_resched()) {
                        local_irq_disable();

this changes clear_thread_flag() to an explicit clearing of TS_POLLING.
clear_thread_flag() is defined as:

        clear_bit(flag, &ti->flags);

and clear_bit() is a LOCK-ed atomic instruction on all x86 platforms:

  static inline void clear_bit(int nr, volatile unsigned long * addr)
  {
          __asm__ __volatile__( LOCK_PREFIX
                  "btrl %1,%0"

hence smp_mb__after_clear_bit() is defined as a simple compile barrier:

  #define smp_mb__after_clear_bit()       barrier()

but the explicit TS_POLLING clearing introduced by the patch:

+               current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;

is not an atomic op! So the clearing of the TS_POLLING bit is freely
reorderable with the reading of the NEED_RESCHED bit - and both now
reside in different memory addresses.

CPU idle wakeup very much depends on ordered memory ops, the clearing of
the TS_POLLING flag must always be done before we test need_resched()
and hit the idle instruction(s). [Symmetrically, the wakeup code needs
to set NEED_RESCHED before it tests the TS_POLLING flag, so memory
ordering is paramount.]

Fernando's dual-core Athlon64 system has a sufficiently advanced memory
ordering model so that it triggered this scenario very often.

( And it also turned out that the reason why these latencies never
  triggered on my testsystems is that i routinely use idle=poll, which
  was the only idle variant not affected by this bug. )

The fix is to change the smp_mb__after_clear_bit() to an smp_mb(), to
act as an absolute barrier between the TS_POLLING write and the
NEED_RESCHED read. This affects almost all idling methods (default,
ACPI, APM), on all 3 x86 architectures: i386, x86_64, ia64.

6f5a9da1af [PATCH] jbd: wait for already submitted t_sync_datalist buffer to complete
In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not
locked, the buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list, submitted to the IO and
waited for IO completion.

But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already
submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was
not waited for IO completion.

Following patch solves this problem.  If it is assumed that a buffer is
submitted to the IO before the buffer_dirty(bh) check and still being
written to disk, this buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list.

3f9d7b0d81 [PATCH] md: fix a few problems with the interface (sysfs and ioctl) to md
While developing more functionality in mdadm I found some bugs in md...

- When we remove a device from an inactive array (write 'remove' to
  the 'state' sysfs file - see 'state_store') would should not
  update the superblock information - as we may not have
  read and processed it all properly yet.

- initialise all raid_disk entries to '-1' else the 'slot sysfs file
  will claim '0' for all devices in an array before the array is
  started.

- all '\n' not to be present at the end of words written to
  sysfs files

- when we use SET_ARRAY_INFO to set the md metadata version,
  set the flag to say that there is persistant metadata.

- allow GET_BITMAP_FILE to be called on an array that hasn't
  been started yet.
