2bc872036e futex: Check for NULL keys in match_futex
If userspace tries to perform a requeue_pi on a non-requeue_pi waiter,
it will find the futex_q->requeue_pi_key to be NULL and OOPS.

Check for NULL in match_futex() instead of doing explicit NULL pointer
checks on all call sites.  While match_futex(NULL, NULL) returning
false is a little odd, it's still correct as we expect valid key
references.

eaf76e0d02 firewire: sbp2: provide fallback if mgt_ORB_timeout is missing
The Unit_Characteristics entry of an SBP-2 unit directory is not
mandatory as far as I can tell.  If it is missing, we would probably
fail to log in into the target because firewire-sbp2 would not wait for
status after it sent the login request.

The fix moves the cleanup of tgt->mgt_orb_timeout into a place where it
is executed exactly once before login, rather than 0..n times depending
on the target's config ROM.  With targets with one or more
Unit_Characteristics entries, the result is the same as before.

06f43d66ec ftrace: Copy ftrace_graph_filter boot param using strlcpy
We are using strncpy in the wrong way to copy the ftrace_graph_filter
boot param because we pass the buffer size instead of the max string
size it can contain (buffer size - 1). The end result might not be
NULL terminated as we are abusing the max string size.

Lets use strlcpy() instead.

444528b3e6 Btrfs: always pin metadata in discard mode
We have an optimization in btrfs to allow blocks to be
immediately freed if they were allocated in this transaction and never
written.  Otherwise they are pinned and freed when the transaction
commits.

This isn't optimal for discard mode because immediately freeing
them means immediately discarding them.  It is better to give the
block to the pinning code and letting the (slow) discard happen later.

92f6a5e37a sched: Do less agressive buddy clearing
Yanmin reported a hackbench regression due to:

 > commit de69a80be3
 > Author: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>
 > Date:   Thu Sep 17 09:01:20 2009 +0200
 >
 >     sched: Stop buddies from hogging the system

I really liked de69a80b, and it affecting hackbench shows I wasn't
crazy ;-)

So hackbench is a multi-cast, with one sender spraying multiple
receivers, who in their turn don't spray back.

This would be exactly the scenario that patch 'cures'. Previously
we would not clear the last buddy after running the next task,
allowing the sender to get back to work sooner than it otherwise
ought to have been, increasing latencies for other tasks.

Now, since those receivers don't poke back, they don't enforce the
buddy relation, which means there's nothing to re-elect the sender.

Cure this by less agressively clearing the buddy stats. Only clear
buddies when they were not chosen. It should still avoid a buddy
sticking around long after its served its time.

03cadd36d5 [S390] tape390: Fix request queue handling in block driver
When setting a channel attached tape online under Linux 2.6.31, the

"vol_id" process from udev hangs in sync_page():
 2 sync_page+144 [0x1dfaac]
 3 __wait_on_bit_lock+194 [0x58c23e]
 4 __lock_page+116 [0x1df9dc]
 5 truncate_inode_pages_range+728 [0x1ed7cc]
 6 __blkdev_put+244 [0x25f738]
 7 __fput+300 [0x229c4c]
 8 filp_close+122 [0x225a3a]

The reason for that is an error in the request queue handling. It can
happen that we fetch a request, but do not process it further because
the number of queued requests exceeds TAPEBLOCK_MIN_REQUEUE.
To fix this, we should call blk_peek_request() instead of
blk_fetch_request() in the while condition and fetch the request in
the loop body afterwards.

This bug was introduced with the patch "block: implement and enforce
request peek/start/fetch" (9934c8c045)

c44fc77084 tracing: Move syscalls metadata handling from arch to core
Most of the syscalls metadata processing is done from arch.
But these operations are mostly generic accross archs. Especially now
that we have a common variable name that expresses the number of
syscalls supported by an arch: NR_syscalls, the only remaining bits
that need to reside in arch is the syscall nr to addr translation.

v2: Compare syscalls symbols only after the "sys" prefix so that we
    avoid spurious mismatches with archs that have syscalls wrappers,
    in which case syscalls symbols have "SyS" prefixed aliases.

1572ca2a84 Input: fix locking issue in /proc/bus/input/ handlers
input_devices_seq_start() uses mutex_lock_interruptible() to acquire
the input_mutex, but doesn't properly handle the situation when the
call fails (for example due to interrupt). Instead of returning NULL
(which indicates that there is no more data) we should return
ERR_PTR()-encoded error.

We also need explicit flag indicating whether input_mutex was acquired
since input_devices_seq_stop() is called whether input_devices_seq_start()
was successful or not.

The same applies to input_handlers_seq_start().

We need to postpone restoring LED state and typematic settings until
keyboard is finished reconnecting upon resume. Normally driver core
and PM infrastructure takes care of proper ordering and dependencies,
but or case actual reconnect is done asynchronously from kseriod.
So while driver core thinks that keyboard was resumed and it is time
to let input core run it's resume handlers in reality keyboard is not
ready yet. The solution is to keep rescheduling work that adjusts LED
and rate settings until keyboard is fully enabled.

eaa47704d9 sh: Use boot_cpu_data for FPU tests in sigcontext paths.
We do not want to use smp_processor_id() from these paths, as they trip
preempt BUGs. Switch the test over to the boot cpu directly.

03541f8b69 perf_event: Adjust frequency and unthrottle for non-group-leader events
The loop in perf_ctx_adjust_freq checks the frequency of sampling
event counters, and adjusts the event interval and unthrottles the
event if required, and resets the interrupt count for the event.
However, at present it only looks at group leaders.

This means that a sampling event that is not a group leader will
eventually get throttled, once its interrupt count reaches
sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate/HZ --- and that is guaranteed to
happen, if the event is active for long enough, since the interrupt
count never gets reset.  Once it is throttled it never gets
unthrottled, so it basically just stops working at that point.

This fixes it by making perf_ctx_adjust_freq use ctx->event_list
rather than ctx->group_list.  The existing spin_lock/spin_unlock
around the loop makes it unnecessary to put rcu_read_lock/
rcu_read_unlock around the list_for_each_entry_rcu().

4d8289494a tracing: Enable "__cold" functions
Based on the commit:

  a586df06 "x86: Support __attribute__((__cold__)) in gcc 4.3"

some of the functions goes to the ".text.unlikely" section.

Looks like there's not many of them (I found printk, panic,
__ssb_dma_not_implemented, fat_fs_error), but still worth to
include I think.

5cb084bb1f tracing: Enable records during the module load
I was debuging some module using "function" and "function_graph"
tracers and noticed, that if you load module after you enabled
tracing, the module's hooks will convert only to NOP instructions.

The attached patch enables modules' hooks if there's function trace
allready on, thus allowing to trace module functions.

756d17ee7e tracing: Support multiple pids in set_pid_ftrace file
Adding the possibility to set more than 1 pid in the set_pid_ftrace
file, thus allowing to trace more than 1 independent processes.

Usage:

 sh-4.0# echo 284 > ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid
 284
 sh-4.0# echo 1 >> ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# echo 0 >> ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid
 swapper tasks
 1
 284
 sh-4.0# echo 4 > ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid

 sh-4.0# echo > ./set_ftrace_pid
 sh-4.0# cat ./set_ftrace_pid
 no pid

194ec34184 function-graph/x86: Replace unbalanced ret with jmp
The function graph tracer replaces the return address with a hook
to trace the exit of the function call. This hook will finish by
returning to the real location the function should return to.

But the current implementation uses a ret to jump to the real
return location. This causes a imbalance between calls and ret.
That is the original function does a call, the ret goes to the
handler and then the handler does a ret without a matching call.

Although the function graph tracer itself still breaks the branch
predictor by replacing the original ret, by using a second ret and
causing an imbalance, it breaks the predictor even more.

This patch replaces the ret with a jmp to keep the calls and ret
balanced. I tested this on one box and it showed a 1.7% increase in
performance. Another box only showed a small 0.3% increase. But no
box that I tested this on showed a decrease in performance by
making this change.

0f6023d599 powerpc/pci: Fix MODPOST warning
making a powerpc target with PCI support, shows the
following warning:

  MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x10430): Section mismatch in reference from the
function pcibios_allocate_bus_resources() to the function .init.text:reparent_resources()

The function pcibios_allocate_bus_resources() references
the function __init reparent_resources().

This is often because pcibios_allocate_bus_resources lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of reparent_resources is wrong.

This patch fix this warning by removing the __init
annotation before reparent_resources.
