      ARM: 7419/1: vfp: fix VFP flushing regression on sigreturn path · 56cb2484
      Will Deacon authored 
      Commit ff9a184c

 ("ARM: 7400/1: vfp: clear fpscr length and stride bits
on entry to sig handler") flushes the VFP state prior to entering a
signal handler so that a VFP operation inside the handler will trap and
force a restore of ABI-compliant registers. Reflushing and disabling VFP
on the sigreturn path is predicated on the saved thread state indicating
that VFP was used by the handler -- however for SMP platforms this is
only set on context-switch, making the check unreliable and causing VFP
register corruption in userspace since the register values are not
necessarily those restored from the sigframe.

This patch unconditionally flushes the VFP state after a signal handler.
Since we already perform the flush before the handler and the flushing
itself happens lazily, the redundant flush when VFP is not used by the
handler is essentially a nop.

      ARM: 7418/1: LPAE: fix access flag setup in mem_type_table · 1a3abcf4
      Vitaly Andrianov authored 
      

A zero value for prot_sect in the memory types table implies that
section mappings should never be created for the memory type in question.
This is checked for in alloc_init_section().

With LPAE, we set a bit to mask access flag faults for kernel mappings.
This breaks the aforementioned (!prot_sect) check in alloc_init_section().

This patch fixes this bug by first checking for a non-zero
prot_sect before setting the PMD_SECT_AF flag.

      virtio_net: invoke softirqs after __napi_schedule · ec13ee80
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      

__napi_schedule might raise softirq but nothing
causes do_softirq to trigger, so it does not in fact
run. As a result,
the error message "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08"
sometimes occurs during boot of a KVM guest when the network service is
started and we are oom:

  ...
  Bringing up loopback interface:  [  OK  ]
  Bringing up interface eth0:
  Determining IP information for eth0...NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08
   done.
  [  OK  ]
  ...

Further, receive queue processing might get delayed
indefinitely until some interrupt triggers:
virtio_net expected napi to be run immediately.

One way to cause do_softirq to be executed is by
invoking local_bh_enable(). As __napi_schedule is
normally called from bh or irq context, this
seems to make sense: disable bh before __napi_schedule
and enable afterwards.

In fact it's a very complicated way of calling do_softirq(),
and works since this function is only used when we are not
in interrupt context.  It's not hot at all, in any ideal scenario.

      virtio: balloon: let host know of updated balloon size before module removal · b8ae0eb3
      Amit Shah authored 
      

When the balloon module is removed, we deflate the balloon, reclaiming
all the pages that were given to the host.  However, we don't update the
config values for the new balloon size, resulting in the host showing
outdated balloon values.

The size update is done after each leak and fill operation, only the
module removal case was left out.

      virtio: console: tell host of open ports after resume from s3/s4 · fa8b66cc
      Amit Shah authored 
      

If a port was open before going into one of the sleep states, the port
can continue normal operation after restore.  However, the host has to
be told that the guest side of the connection is open to restore
pre-suspend state.

This wasn't noticed so far due to a bug in qemu that was fixed recently
(which marked the guest-side connection as always open).

      MD: Add del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend (fix nasty panic) · 0d9f4f13
      Jonathan Brassow authored 
      

Use del_timer_sync to remove timer before mddev_suspend finishes.

We don't want a timer going off after an mddev_suspend is called.  This is
especially true with device-mapper, since it can call the destructor function
immediately following a suspend.  This results in the removal (kfree) of the
structures upon which the timer depends - resulting in a very ugly panic.
Therefore, we add a del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend to prevent this.

      md/raid10: set dev_sectors properly when resizing devices in array. · 6508fdbf
      NeilBrown authored 
      

raid10 stores dev_sectors in 'conf' separately from the one in
'mddev' because it can have a very significant effect on block
addressing and so need to be updated carefully.

However raid10_resize isn't updating it at all!

To update it correctly, we need to make sure it is a proper
multiple of the chunksize taking various details of the layout
in to account.
This calculation is currently done in setup_conf.   So split it
out from there and call it from raid10_resize as well.
Then set conf->dev_sectors properly.
