3372f5a7d0 m68k: Do not set global share for non-kernel shared pages
If the SG bit is set in MMUTR the page is accessible for all
userspace processes (ignoring the ASID). So a process might randomly
access a page from a different process which had a shared page
(from shared memory) in its context.

57e00098cc m68k: Add shared bit to Coldfire kernel page entries
We had problems accessing our NOR flash trough mtd. The system always got
stuck at attaching UBI using ubiattach if booted from NFS or after mounting
squashfs as rootfs directly from NOR flash.
After some testing of the new changes introduced from v3.2-rc1 to v3.2-rc7
we had to apply the following patch to get mtd working again.

[gerg: The problem was ultimately caused by allocated kernel pages not having
the shared (SG) bit set. Without the SG bit set the MMU will look for page
matches incorporating the ASID as well. Things like module regions allocated
using vmalloc would fault when other processes run. ]

8b3262c00d m68knommu: fix syscall tracing stuck process
The return path from an exception was checking too many bits in the
thread_info->flags, and getting stuck calling do_signal(). There was
no work to do, we should only be checking the low 8 bits (as per comments
and definitions in arch/m68k/include/asm/thread_info.h).

This fixes the stuck process problem when using strace.

db91ff55bd md: two small fixes to handling interrupt resync.
1/ If a resync is aborted we should record how far we got
 (recovery_cp) the last request that we know has completed
 (->curr_resync_completed) rather than the last request that was
 submitted (->curr_resync).

2/ When a resync aborts we still want to update the metadata with
 any changes, so set MD_CHANGE_DEVS even if we 'skip'.

96e02d1586 exec: fix use-after-free bug in setup_new_exec()
Setting the task name is done within setup_new_exec() by accessing
bprm->filename. However this happens after flush_old_exec().
This may result in a use after free bug, flush_old_exec() may
"complete" vfork_done, which will wake up the parent which in turn
may free the passed in filename.
To fix this add a new tcomm field in struct linux_binprm which
contains the now early generated task name until it is used.

c898261c0d drm/i915: Force explicit bpp selection for intel_dp_link_required
It is never correct to use intel_crtc->bpp in intel_dp_link_required,
so instead pass an explicit bpp in to this function. This patch
only supports 18bpp and 24bpp modes, which means that 10bpc modes will
be computed incorrectly. Fixing that will require more extensive
changes, and so must be addressed separately from this bugfix.

intel_dp_link_required is called from intel_dp_mode_valid and
intel_dp_mode_fixup.

* intel_dp_mode_valid is called to list supported modes; in this case,
  the current crtc values cannot be relevant as the modes in question
  may never be selected. Thus, using intel_crtc->bpp is never right.

* intel_dp_mode_fixup is called during mode setting, but it is run
  well before ironlake_crtc_mode_set is called to set intel_crtc->bpp,
  so using intel_crtc-bpp in this path can only ever get a stale
  value.

3175bd9add tipc: Eliminate alteration of publication key during name table purging
Removes code that alters the publication key of a name table entry
that is being forcibly purged from TIPC's name table after contact
with the publishing node has been lost.

Current TIPC ensures that all defunct names are purged before
re-establishing contact with a failed node.  There used to be a risk
that the publication might be accidentally deleted because it might be
re-added to the name table before the purge operation was completed.
But now there is no longer a need to ensure that the new key is different
than the old one.

63e7f1ac28 tipc: Prevent loss of fragmented messages over broadcast link
Modifies broadcast link so that an incoming fragmented message is not
lost if reassembly cannot begin because there currently is no buffer
big enough to hold the entire reassembled message. The broadcast link
now ignores the first fragment completely, which causes the sending node
to retransmit the first fragment so that reassembly can be re-attempted.

Previously, the sender would have had no reason to retransmit the 1st
fragment, so we would never have a chance to re-try the allocation.

To do this cleanly without duplicaton, a new bclink_accept_pkt()
function is introduced.

7a54d4a99d tipc: Major redesign of broadcast link ACK/NACK algorithms
Completely redesigns broadcast link ACK and NACK mechanisms to prevent
spurious retransmit requests in dual LAN networks, and to prevent the
broadcast link from stalling due to the failure of a receiving node to
acknowledge receiving a broadcast message or request its retransmission.

Note: These changes only impact the timing of when ACK and NACK messages
are sent, and not the basic broadcast link protocol itself, so inter-
operability with nodes using the "classic" algorithms is maintained.

The revised algorithms are as follows:

1) An explicit ACK message is still sent after receiving 16 in-sequence
messages, and implicit ACK information continues to be carried in other
unicast link message headers (including link state messages).  However,
the timing of explicit ACKs is now based on the receiving node's absolute
network address rather than its relative network address to ensure that
the failure of another node does not delay the ACK beyond its 16 message
target.

2) A NACK message is now typically sent only when a message gap persists
for two consecutive incoming link state messages; this ensures that a
suspected gap is not confirmed until both LANs in a dual LAN network have
had an opportunity to deliver the message, thereby preventing spurious NACKs.
A NACK message can also be generated by the arrival of a single link state
message, if the deferred queue is so big that the current message gap
cannot be the result of "normal" mis-ordering due to the use of dual LANs
(or one LAN using a bonded interface). Since link state messages typically
arrive at different nodes at different times the problem of multiple nodes
issuing identical NACKs simultaneously is inherently avoided.

3) Nodes continue to "peek" at NACK messages sent by other nodes. If
another node requests retransmission of a message gap suspected (but not
yet confirmed) by the peeking node, the peeking node forgets about the
gap and does not generate a duplicate retransmit request. (If the peeking
node subsequently fails to receive the lost message, later link state
messages will cause it to rediscover and confirm the gap and send another
NACK.)

4) Message gap "equality" is now determined by the start of the gap only.
This is sufficient to deal with the most common cases of message loss,
and eliminates the need for complex end of gap computations.

5) A peeking node no longer tries to determine whether it should send a
complementary NACK, since the most common cases of message loss don't
require it to be sent. Consequently, the node no longer examines the
"broadcast tag" field of a NACK message when peeking.

result of receiving a RESET/STATE sequence of link protocol messages
fails to properly record the broadcast link status information about

9349931371 tipc: Ensure broadcast link re-acquires node after link failure
Fix a bug that can prevent TIPC from sending broadcast messages to a node
if contact with the node is lost and then regained. The problem occurs if
the broadcast link first clears the flag indicating the node is part of the
link's distribution set (when it loses contact with the node), and later
fails to restore the flag (when contact is regained); restoration fails
if contact with the node is regained by implicit unicast link activation
triggered by the arrival of a data message, rather than explicitly by the
arrival of a link activation message.

The broadcast link now uses separate fields to track whether a node is
theoretically capable of receiving broadcast messages versus whether it is
actually part of the link's distribution set. The former member is updated
by the receipt of link protocol messages, which can occur at any time; the
latter member is updated only when contact with the node is gained or lost.
This change also permits the simplification of several conditional
expressions since the broadcast link's "supported" field can now only be
set if there are working links to the associated node.

4d75313ce9 tipc: Prevent broadcast link stalling in dual LAN environments
Ensure that sequence number information about incoming broadcast link
messages is initialized only by the activation of the first link to a
given cluster node.  Previously, a race condition allowed reset and/or
activation messages for a second link to re-initialize this sequence
number information with obsolete values. This could trigger TIPC to
request the retransmission of previously acknowledged broadcast link
messages from that node, resulting in broadcast link processing becoming
stalled if the node had already released one or more of those messages
and was unable to perform the required retransmission.

762b2935fc perf doc: Allow producing documentation in a specified output directory
Currently we can put the object files in a different directory by using
'O=' comand line argument.

However the generated documentation files don't honor this directive,

This patch fixes that. It's been tested for man target but the others
seems currently broken so no tests have been done on them so far.

e89cef136a perf tool: Fix perf stack to non executable on x86_64
By adding following objects:
  bench/mem-memset-x86-64-asm.o
  bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o
the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack.

The reason was that above objects are assembler sourced and are missing the
GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary
should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX.

Adding section ".note.GNU-stack" definition to mentioned objects, with all
flags disabled, thus omiting those objects from linker stack flags decision.

a4a03fc7ef perf evsel: Fix an issue where perf report fails to show the proper percentage
This patch fixes an issue where perf report shows nan% for certain
perf.data files. The below is from a report for a do_fork probe:

   -nan%           sshd  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork
   -nan%    packagekitd  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork
   -nan%    dbus-daemon  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork
   -nan%           bash  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork

A git bisect shows commit f3bda2c as the cause. However, looking back
through the git history, I saw commit 640c03c which seems to have
removed the required initialization for perf_sample->period. The problem
only started showing after commit f3bda2c. The below patch re-introduces
the initialization and it fixes the problem for me.

With the below patch, for the same perf.data:

  73.08%             bash  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork
   8.97%      11-dhclient  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork
   6.41%             sshd  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork
   3.85%        20-chrony  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork
   2.56%         sendmail  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] do_fork

This patch applies over current linux-tip commit 9949284.

bf32c9ebc9 perf tools: Fix prefix matching for kernel maps
In some perf ancient versions we used '[kernel.kallsyms._text]' as the
name for the kernel map.

This got changed with commit:
  perf: 'perf kvm' tool for monitoring guest performance from host
  commit a1645ce12a
  Author: Zhang, Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com>

and we started to use following name '[kernel.kallsyms]_text'.

This name change is important for the report code dealing with ancient
perf data. When processing the kernel map event, we need to recognize
the old naming (dont match the last ']') and initialize the kernel map
correctly.

The subsequent call to maps__set_kallsyms_ref_reloc_sym deals with the
superfluous ']' to get correct symbol name.

e1936e9407 mac80211: call rate control only after init
There are situations where we don't have the
necessary rate control information yet for
station entries, e.g. when associating. This
currently doesn't really happen due to the
dummy station handling; explicitly disabling
rate control when it's not initialised will
allow us to remove dummy stations.

Just like skb->cb[], so that qdisc_skb_cb can be encapsulated inside
of other data structures.

This is intended to be used by IPoIB so that it can remember
addressing information stored at hard_header_ops->create() time that
it can fetch when the packet gets to the transmit routine.
