5b20192727 [PATCH] x86_64: Fix a race in the free_iommu path
We do this by removing a micro-optimization that tries to avoid grabbing
the iommu_bitmap_lock spinlock and using a bus-locked operation.

This still races with other simultaneous alloc_iommu or free_iommu(size >
1) which both use bus-unlocked operations.

The end result of this race is eventually ending up with an
iommu_gart_bitmap that has bits errornously set all over, making large
contiguous iommu space allocations fail with 'PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space'.

ddbe3eec59 [PATCH] x86_64: Pass -32 to the assembler when compiling the 32bit vsyscall pages
This quietens warnings and actually fixes a bug.  The unwind tables would
come out wrong without -32, causing pthread cancellation during them to
crash in the gcc runtime.

The problem seems to only happen with newer binutils (it doesn't happen
with 2.16.91.0.2 but happens wit 2.16.91.0.5)

ac325acd50 [PATCH] powerpc/pseries: clear PCI failure counter if no new failures
The current PCI error recovery system keeps track of the number of PCI card
resets, and refuses to bring a card back up if this number is too large.
The goal of doing this was to avoid an infinite loop of resets if a card is
obviously dead.  However, if the failures are rare, but the machine has a
high uptime, this mechanism might still be triggered; this is too harsh.

This patch will avoids this problem by decrementing the fail count after an
hour.  Thus, as long as a pci card BSOD's less than 6 times an hour, it
will continue to be reset indefinitely.  If it's failure rate is greater
than that, it will be taken off-line permanently.

This patch is larger than it might otherwise be because it changes
indentation by removing a pointless while-loop.  The while loop is not
needed, as the handler is invoked once fo each event (by schedule_work());
the loop is leftover cruft from an earlier implementation.

81bbbe9294 [PATCH] powerpc: clear IPIs on kdump
In some crash scenarios, the kexec CPU is not responding to an IPI sent by
secondary CPU after init thread is forked, causing the system to drop into
xmon during kdump boot.  This problem can be reproduced each time when the
debugger is enabled and soft-reset is used to invoke kdump boot. The first
CPU sends an IPI - setting the IPI priority for all secondary cpus
(xics_cause_ipi()). But some CPUs will enter into the xmon via soft-reset,
i.e, not executing xics_ipi_action(). Hence, IPI is not cleared. When
exited from the debugger, one of these CPUs could become the primary kexec
CPU. Since the IPI is not cleared, causing this issue in kdump boot. This
patch clears and EOI IPI for kexec CPU as well before the kdump boot
started.

d6c1a90810 [PATCH] powerpc: Disable and EOI interrupts in machine_crash_shutdown()
We've seen several bugs caused by interrupt weirdness in the kdump kernel.
Panicking from an interrupt handler means we fail to EOI the interrupt, and
so the second kernel never gets that interrupt ever again. We also see hangs
on JS20 where we take interrupts in the second kernel early during boot.

This patch fixes both those problems, and although it adds more code to the
crash path I think it is the best solution.

2889773131 [PATCH] powerpc: Lower threshold for DART enablement to 1GB
Turn on the DART already at 1GB. This is needed because of crippled
devices in some systems, i.e. Airport Extreme cards, only supporting
30-bit DMA addresses.

Otherwise, users with between 1 and 2GB of memory will need to manually
enable it with iommu=force, and that's no good.

Some simple performance tests show that there's a slight impact of
enabling DART, but it's in the 1-3% range (kernel build with disk I/O
as well as over NFS).

iommu=off can still be used for those who don't want to deal with the
overhead (and don't need it for any devices).

18bd057b14 [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Fix x87 information leak between processes
AMD K7/K8 CPUs only save/restore the FOP/FIP/FDP x87 registers in FXSAVE
when an exception is pending.  This means the value leak through
context switches and allow processes to observe some x87 instruction
state of other processes.

This was actually documented by AMD, but nobody recognized it as
being different from Intel before.

The fix first adds an optimization: instead of unconditionally
calling FNCLEX after each FXSAVE test if ES is pending and skip
it when not needed. Then do a x87 load from a kernel variable to
clear FOP/FIP/FDP.

This means other processes always will only see a constant value
defined by the kernel in their FP state.

I took some pain to make sure to chose a variable that's already
in L1 during context switch to make the overhead of this low.

Also alternative() is used to patch away the new code on CPUs
who don't need it.

Patch for both i386/x86-64.

The problem was discovered originally by Jan Beulich. Richard
Brunner provided the basic code for the workarounds, with contribution
from Jan.

This is CVE-2006-1056

there by disallowing probes on all such routines.  Some of the routines
can even still be inlined, since these routines gets executed after the
kprobes had done necessay setup for reentrancy.

3b60211c16 [PATCH] Switch Kprobes inline functions to __kprobes for x86_64
Andrew Morton pointed out that compiler might not inline the functions
marked for inline in kprobes.  There-by allowing the insertion of probes
on these kprobes routines, which might cause recursion.

This patch removes all such inline and adds them to kprobes section
there by disallowing probes on all such routines.  Some of the routines
can even still be inlined, since these routines gets executed after the
kprobes had done necessay setup for reentrancy.

7337445455 [PATCH] apm: fix Armada laptops again
Fix the "apm: set display: Interface not engaged" error on Armada laptops
again.

Jordan said:

  I think this is fine.  It seems to me that this may be the fault of one or
  both of the APM solutions handling this situation in a non-standard way, but
  since APM is used very little on the Geode, and I have direct access to our
  BIOS folks, if this problem comes up with a customer again, we'll solve it
  from the firmware.
