ad496b34c6 net: Fix userspace RTM_NEWLINK notifications.
commit d90a909e1f upstream.

I received some bug reports about userspace programs having problems
because after RTM_NEWLINK was received they could not immeidate
access files under /proc/sys/net/ because they had not been
registered yet.

The problem was trivailly fixed by moving the userspace
notification from rtnetlink_event to the end of register_netdevice.

383073d49f ACPI: Use the ARB_DISABLE for the CPU which model id is less than 0x0f.
commit 03a05ed115 upstream.

Currently, ARB_DISABLE is a NOP on all of the recent Intel platforms.
For such platforms, reduce contention on c3_lock by skipping the fake
ARB_DISABLE.

The cpu model id on one laptop is 14. If we disable ARB_DISABLE on this box,
the box can't be booted correctly. But if we still enable ARB_DISABLE on this
box, the box can be booted correctly.

So we still use the ARB_DISABLE for the cpu which mode id is less than 0x0f.

f0cc8412be vmalloc: conditionalize build of pcpu_get_vm_areas()
No matching upstream commit as it was resolved differently there.


pcpu_get_vm_areas() is used only when dynamic percpu allocator is used
by the architecture.  In 2.6.32, ia64 doesn't use dynamic percpu
allocator and has a macro which makes pcpu_get_vm_areas() buggy via
local/global variable aliasing and triggers compile warning.

The problem is fixed in upstream and ia64 uses dynamic percpu
allocators, so the only left issue is inclusion of unnecessary code
and compile warning on ia64 on 2.6.32.

Don't build pcpu_get_vm_areas() if legacy percpu allocator is in use.

commit d951d4cc84 upstream.

The light sensor disable brightness key and
/sys/class/backlight/ control. There was a lot of report

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13671
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14432

Now the light sensor is disabled, and if the user want to enable
it, the level should be ok.

The funny thing is that comments where ok, not code.

1794daecdb thinkpad-acpi: preserve rfkill state across suspend/resume
commit 208b996b6c upstream.

Since the rfkill rework in 2.6.31, the driver is always resuming with
the radios disabled.

Change thinkpad-acpi to ask the firmware to resume with the radios in
the last state.  This fixes the Bluetooth and WWAN rfkill switches.

Note that it means we respect the firmware's oddities.  Should the
user toggle the hardware rfkill switch on and off, it might cause the
radios to resume enabled.

UWB is an unknown quantity since it has nowhere the same level of
firmware support (no control over state storage in NVRAM, for
example), and might need further fixing.  Testers welcome.

This change fixes a regression from 2.6.30.

5279bfc629 thinkpad-acpi: fix default brightness_mode for R50e/R51
commit a9f8eacca4 upstream.

According to a report, the R50e wants EC-based brightness control,
even if it uses an Intel GPU.  The current driver default was reported
to not work at all.

This bug can be worked around by the "brightness_mode=3" module
parameter.

Change the default of the R50e and R51 2xxx models (which use the same
EC firmware, 1V) to TPACPI_BRGHT_Q_EC, but keep TPACPI_BRGHT_Q_ASK set
for now, as I'd like to get more reports.

This fixes a regression caused by commit
59fe4fe34d,
"thinkpad-acpi: fix incorrect use of TPACPI_BRGHT_MODE_ECNVRAM"

Kernel 2.6.31 also needs this fix.

e8d9252227 drm/i915: Fix sync to vblank when VGA output is turned off
commit 778c902640 upstream

In current vblank-wait implementation, if we turn off VGA output,
drm_wait_vblank will still wait on the disabled pipe until timeout,
because vblank on the pipe is assumed be enabled. This would cause
slow system response on some system such as moblin.

This patch resolve the issue by adding a drm helper function
drm_vblank_off which explicitly clear vblank_enabled[crtc], wake up
any waiting queue and save last vblank counter before turning off
crtc. It also slightly change drm_vblank_get to ensure that we will
will return immediately if trying to wait on a disabled pipe.

58cd74bafb mac80211: Fix dynamic power save for scanning.
Upstream commit: 7c3f4bbedc

Not only ps_sdata but also IEEE80211_CONF_PS is to be considered
before restoring PS in scan_ps_disable(). For instance, when ps_sdata
is set but CONF_PS is not set just because the dynamic timer is still
running, a sw scan leads to setting of CONF_PS in scan_ps_disable
instead of restarting the dynamic PS timer.
Also for the above case, a null data frame is to be sent after
returning to operating channel which was not happening with the
current implementation. This patch fixes this too.

0f77b958dc ath9k: fix tx status reporting
This is a backport of upstream commit: e8c6342d989e241513baeba4b05a04b6b1f3bc8b

This patch fixes a bug in ath9k's tx status check, which
caused mac80211 to consider regularly transmitted unicast frames
as un-acked.

When checking the ts_status field for errors, it needs to be masked
with ATH9K_TXERR_FILT, because this field also contains other fields
like ATH9K_TX_ACKED.

Without this patch, AP mode is pretty much unusable, as hostapd
checks the ACK status for the frames that it injects.

e82a3a2db5 ath9k: Fix maximum tx fifo settings for single stream devices
This is a backport of upstream commit: f4709fdf68

Atheros single stream AR9285 and AR9271 have half the PCU TX FIFO
buffer size of that of dual stream devices. Dual stream devices
have a max PCU TX FIFO size of 8 KB while single stream devices
have 4 KB. Single stream devices have an issue though and require
hardware only to use half of the amount of its capable PCU TX FIFO
size, 2 KB and this requires a change in software.

Technically a change would not have been required (except for frame
burst considerations of 128 bytes) if these devices would have been
able to use the full 4 KB of the PCU TX FIFO size but our systems
engineers recommend 2 KB to be used only. We enforce this through
software by reducing the max frame triggger level to 2 KB.

Fixing the max frame trigger level should then have a few benefits:

  * The PER will now be adjusted as designed for underruns when the
    max trigger level is reached. This should help alleviate the
    bus as the rate control algorithm chooses a slower rate which
    should ensure frames are transmitted properly under high system
    bus load.

  * The poll we use on our TX queues should now trigger and work
    as designed for single stream devices. The hardware passes
    data from each TX queue on the PCU TX FIFO queue respecting each
    queue's priority. The new trigger level ensures this seeding of
    the PCU TX FIFO queue occurs as designed which could mean avoiding
    false resets and actually reseting hw correctly when a TX queue
    is indeed stuck.

  * Some undocumented / unsupported behaviour could have been triggered
    when the max trigger level level was being set to 4 KB on single
    stream devices. Its not clear what this issue was to me yet.

022fe0eb67 ath9k: fix processing of TX PS null data frames
This is a backport of upstream commit: e7824a5066

When mac80211 was telling us to go into Powersave we listened
and immediately turned RX off. This meant hardware would not
see the ACKs from the AP we're associated with and hardware
we'd end up retransmiting the null data frame in a loop
helplessly.

Fix this by keeping track of the transmitted nullfunc frames
and only when we are sure the AP has sent back an ACK do we
go ahead and shut RX off.

7847a351aa tracing: Fix event format export
commit 811cb50baf upstream.

For some reason the export of the event print format to userspace
uses '#fmt' which breaks if the format string is anything but a plain
string, for example if it is built with macros then the macro names
are exported instead of their contents.

Use
	"\"%s\"", fmt
instead of
	"%s", #fmt
to export the string and not the way it is built.

For example, in net/mac80211/driver-trace.h for the trace event drv_start
there is:

        TP_printk(
                LOCAL_PR_FMT, LOCAL_PR_ARG
        )

Which use to produce:

 print fmt: LOCAL_PR_FMT, REC->wiphy_name

Now produces:

 print fmt: "%s", REC->wiphy_name

For PPC architecture with PHY Revision < 3, a read of the register
B43_MMIO_HWENABLED_LO will cause a CPU fault unless b43legacy_status()

the driver is unable to associate after resuming from hibernation unless
this routine returns 1. To satisfy both conditions, the routine is rewritten
to return TRUE whenever b43legacy_status() returns a value < 2.

[ Upstream commit 4230fa3b89 ]

When we are trying to see if a range property entry applies
to a given address, we are overly strict about the type.

We should only allow I/O ranges for I/O addresses, and only allow
CONFIG space ranges for CONFIG space address.

However for MEM ranges, they come in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors.
And a lack of an exact match is OK if the range is 32-bit and
the address is 64-bit.  We can assign a 64-bit address properly
into a 32-bit parent range just fine.

So allow it.

599343ebd4 b44 WOL setup: one-bit-off stack corruption kernel panic fix

About 50% of shutdowns of b44 Ethernet adapter ends by kernel panic
with kernels compiled with stack-protector.

Checking b44_magic_pattern() return values, one call of
b44_magic_pattern() returns 127. It means, that set_bit(128, pmask)
was called on line 1509. It means that bit 0 of 17th byte of pmask was

42d8bd7737 ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socket
[ Upstream commit b2722b1c3a ]

When a large packet gets reassembled by ip_defrag(), the head skb
accounts for all the fragments in skb->truesize. If this packet is
refragmented again, skb->truesize is not re-adjusted to reflect only
the head size since its not owned by a socket. If the head fragment
then gets recycled and reused for another received fragment, it might
exceed the defragmentation limits due to its large truesize value.

skb_recycle_check() explicitly checks for linear skbs, so any recycled
skb should reflect its true size in skb->truesize. Change ip_fragment()
to also adjust the truesize value of skbs not owned by a socket.

0d975c7ebd tcp: Stalling connections: Fix timeout calculation routine
[ Upstream commit 07f29bc5bb ]

This patch fixes a problem in the TCP connection timeout calculation.
Currently, timeout decisions are made on the basis of the current
tcp_time_stamp and retrans_stamp, which is usually set at the first
retransmission.
However, if the retransmission fails in tcp_retransmit_skb(),
retrans_stamp is not updated and remains zero. This leads to wrong
decisions in retransmits_timed_out() if tcp_time_stamp is larger than
the specified timeout, which is very likely.
In this case, the TCP connection dies after the first attempted
(and unsuccessful) retransmission.

With this patch, tcp_skb_cb->when is used instead, when retrans_stamp
is not available.

This bug has been introduced together with retransmits_timed_out() in
2.6.32, as the number of retransmissions has been used for timeout
decisions before. The corresponding commit was
6fa12c8503 (Revert Backoff [v3]:
Calculate TCP's connection close threshold as a time value.).
