6fce56ec91 sysctl: Remove references to ctl_name and strategy from the generic sysctl table
Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys  .ctl_name
and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code.  Remove them.

83ac201b4f sysctl: Remove dead code from sysctl_check
Now that the sys_sysctl is now a compatibility wrapper around
/proc/sys we can remove much of sysctl_check and reduce it
to a few remaining sanity checks.  This completely decouples
it from the binary sysctl system call.

Little things like ensuring that the sysctl has not already
been registered are all that remain.

a965cf946d sysctl: Neuter the generic sysctl strategy routines.
Now that sys_sysctl is a compatibility layer on top of /proc/sys
these routines are never called but are still put in sysctl
tables so I have reduced them to stubs until they can be
removed entirely.

26a7034b40 sysctl: Reduce sys_sysctl to a compatibility wrapper around /proc/sys
To simply maintenance and to be able to remove all of the binary
sysctl support from various subsystems I have rewritten the binary
sysctl code as a compatibility wrapper around proc/sys.

The code is built around a hard coded table based on the table
in sysctl_check.c that lists all of our current binary sysctls
and provides enough information to convert from the sysctl
binary input into into ascii and back again.  New in this
patch is the realization that the only dynamic entries
that need to be handled have ifname as the asscii string
and ifindex as their ctl_name.

When a sys_sysctl is called the code now looks in the
translation table converting the binary name to the
path under /proc where the value is to be found.  Opens
that file, and calls into a format conversion wrapper
that calls fop->read and then fop->write as appropriate.

Since in practice the practically no one uses or tests
sys_sysctl rewritting the code to be beautiful is a little
silly.  The redeeming merit of this work is it allows us to
rip out all of the binary sysctl syscall support from
everywhere else in the tree.  Allowing us to remove
a lot of dead (after this patch) and barely maintained code.

In addition it becomes much easier to optimize the sysctl
implementation for being the backing store of /proc/sys,
without having to worry about sys_sysctl.

da3f6f9b3e sysctl: Introduce a generic compat sysctl sysctl
This uses compat_alloc_userspace to remove the various
hacks to allow do_sysctl to write to throuh oldlenp.

The rest of our mature compat syscall helper facitilies
are used as well to ensure we have a nice clean maintainable
compat syscall that can be used on all architectures.

The motiviation for a generic compat sysctl (besides the
obvious hack removal) is to reduce the number of compat
sysctl defintions out there so I can refactor the
binary sysctl implementation.

ppc already used the name compat_sys_sysctl so I remove the
ppcs version here.

2830b68361 sysctl: Refactor the binary sysctl handling to remove duplicate code
Read in the binary sysctl path once, instead of reread it
from user space each time the code needs to access a path
element.

The deprecated sysctl warning is moved to do_sysctl so
that the compat_sysctl entries syscalls will also warn.

The return of -ENOSYS when !CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL is moved
to binary_sysctl.  Always leaving a do_sysctl available
that handles !CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL and printing the
deprecated sysctl warning allows for a single defitition
of the sysctl syscall.

1d51075094 Correct nr_processes() when CPUs have been unplugged
nr_processes() returns the sum of the per cpu counter process_counts for
all online CPUs. This counter is incremented for the current CPU on
fork() and decremented for the current CPU on exit(). Since a process
does not necessarily fork and exit on the same CPU the process_count for
an individual CPU can be either positive or negative and effectively has
no meaning in isolation.

Therefore calculating the sum of process_counts over only the online
CPUs omits the processes which were started or stopped on any CPU which
has since been unplugged. Only the sum of process_counts across all
possible CPUs has meaning.

The only caller of nr_processes() is proc_root_getattr() which
calculates the number of links to /proc as
        stat->nlink = proc_root.nlink + nr_processes();

You don't have to be all that unlucky for the nr_processes() to return a
negative value leading to a negative number of links (or rather, an
apparently enormous number of links). If this happens then you can get
failures where things like "ls /proc" start to fail because they got an
-EOVERFLOW from some stat() call.

Example with some debugging inserted to show what goes on:
        # ps haux|wc -l
        nr_processes: CPU0:     90
        nr_processes: CPU1:     1030
        nr_processes: CPU2:     -900
        nr_processes: CPU3:     -136
        nr_processes: TOTAL:    84
        proc_root_getattr. nlink 12 + nr_processes() 84 = 96
        84
        # echo 0 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
        # ps haux|wc -l
        nr_processes: CPU0:     85
        nr_processes: CPU2:     -901
        nr_processes: CPU3:     -137
        nr_processes: TOTAL:    -953
        proc_root_getattr. nlink 12 + nr_processes() -953 = -941
        75
        # stat /proc/
        nr_processes: CPU0:     84
        nr_processes: CPU2:     -901
        nr_processes: CPU3:     -137
        nr_processes: TOTAL:    -954
        proc_root_getattr. nlink 12 + nr_processes() -954 = -942
          File: `/proc/'
          Size: 0               Blocks: 0          IO Block: 1024   directory

        Change: 2009-11-03 09:06:55.000000000 +0000

I'm not 100% convinced that the per_cpu regions remain valid for offline
CPUs, although my testing suggests that they do. If not then I think the
correct solution would be to aggregate the process_count for a given CPU
into a global base value in cpu_down().

This bug appears to pre-date the transition to git and it looks like it
may even have been present in linux-2.6.0-test7-bk3 since it looks like
the code Rusty patched in http://lwn.net/Articles/64773/ was already
wrong.

9905d1b411 PM / yenta: Split resume into early and late parts (rev. 4)
Commit 0c570cdeb8
(PM / yenta: Fix cardbus suspend/resume regression) caused resume to
fail on systems with two CardBus bridges.  While the exact nature
of the failure is not known at the moment, it can be worked around by
splitting the yenta resume into an early part, executed during the
early phase of resume, that will only resume the socket and power it
up if there was a card in it during suspend, and a late part,
executed during "regular" resume, that will carry out all of the
remaining yenta resume operations.

Fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14334, which is a
listed regression from 2.6.31.

ee1e82cee5 Input: i8042 - try to get stable CTR value when initializing
If user presses keys while i8042 is being initialized there is a chance
that keyboard data will be mistaken for results of Read Control Register
command causing futher troubles. Work around this issue by reading CTR
several times and stop when we get matching results.

aeda7f6343 nilfs2: fix irregular checkpoint creation due to data flush
When nilfs flushes out dirty data to reduce memory pressure, creation
of checkpoints is wrongly postponed.  This bug causes irregular
checkpoint creation especially in small footprint systems.

To correct this issue, a timer for the checkpoint creation has to be
continued if a log writer does not create a checkpoint.

This will do the correction.

b1e19e5601 nilfs2: fix dirty page accounting leak causing hang at write
Bruno Prémont and Dunphy, Bill noticed me that NILFS will certainly
hang on ARM-based targets.

I found this was caused by an underflow of dirty pages counter.  A
b-tree cache routine was marking page dirty without adjusting page
account information.

This fixes the dirty page accounting leak and resolves the hang on
arm-based targets.

45da790ebe i2c-mpc: Do not generate STOP after read.
The driver always ends a read with a STOP condition which
breaks subsequent I2C reads/writes in the same transaction as
these expect to do a repeated START(ReSTART).

This will also help I2C multimaster as the bus will not be released
after the first read, but when the whole transaction ends.

43309f3b52 i2c: imx: check busy bit when START/STOP
The controller can't do anything else before it actually generates START/STOP.
So we check busy bit to make sure START/STOP is successfully finished.

If we don't check busy bit, START/STOP may fail on some fast CPUs.

c1f9a764cf mac80211: check interface is down before type change
For some strange reason the netif_running() check
ended up after the actual type change instead of
before, potentially causing all kinds of problems
if the interface is up while changing the type;
one of the problems manifests itself as a warning:

7400f42e9d cfg80211: fix NULL ptr deref
commit 211a4d12abf86fe0df4cd68fc6327cbb58f56f81
  Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>
  Date:   Tue Oct 20 15:08:53 2009 +0900

      cfg80211: sme: deauthenticate on assoc failure

introduced a potential NULL pointer dereference that
some people have been hitting for some reason -- the
params.bssid pointer is not guaranteed to be non-NULL
for what seems to be a race between various ways of
reaching the same thing.

While I'm trying to analyse the problem more let's
first fix the crash. I think the real fix may be to
avoid doing _anything_ if it ended up being NULL, but
right now I'm not sure yet.

I think
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14342
might also be this issue.

d4da6c9ccf Revert "ext4: Remove journal_checksum mount option and enable it by default"
This reverts commit d0646f7b63, as
requested by Eric Sandeen.

It can basically cause an ext4 filesystem to miss recovery (and thus get
mounted with errors) if the journal checksum does not match.

Quoth Eric:

   "My hand-wavy hunch about what is happening is that we're finding a
    bad checksum on the last partially-written transaction, which is
    not surprising, but if we have a wrapped log and we're doing the
    initial scan for head/tail, and we abort scanning on that bad
    checksum, then we are essentially running an unrecovered filesystem.

    But that's hand-wavy and I need to go look at the code.

    We lived without journal checksums on by default until now, and at
    this point they're doing more harm than good, so we should revert
    the default-changing commit until we can fix it and do some good
    power-fail testing with the fixes in place."

See

for all the gory details.
