7a1abd08d5 tcp: Increase TCP_MAXSEG socket option minimum.
As noted by Steve Chen, since commit
f5fff5dc8a ("tcp: advertise MSS
requested by user") we can end up with a situation where
tcp_select_initial_window() does a divide by a zero (or
even negative) mss value.

The problem is that sometimes we effectively subtract
TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_ALIGNED and/or TCPOLEN_MD5SIG_ALIGNED from the mss.

Fix this by increasing the minimum from 8 to 64.

9ec23a7f6d xen: do not release any memory under 1M in domain 0
We already deliberately setup a 1-1 P2M for the region up to 1M in
order to allow code which assumes this region is already mapped to
work without having to convert everything to ioremap.

Domain 0 should not return any apparently unused memory regions
(reserved or otherwise) in this region to Xen since the e820 may not
accurately reflect what the BIOS has stashed in this region.

6903591f31 xen: events: do not unmask event channels on resume
The IRQ core code will take care of disabling and reenabling
interrupts over suspend resume automatically, therefore we do not need
to do this in the Xen event channel code.

The only exception is those event channels marked IRQF_NO_SUSPEND
which the IRQ core ignores. We must unmask these ourselves, taking
care to obey the current IRQ_DISABLED status. Failure check for
IRQ_DISABLED leads to enabling polled only event channels, such as
that associated with the pv spinlocks, which must never be enabled:

eed01528a4 perf_events: Fix time tracking in samples
This patch corrects time tracking in samples. Without this patch
both time_enabled and time_running are bogus when user asks for
PERF_SAMPLE_READ.

One uses PERF_SAMPLE_READ to sample the values of other counters
in each sample. Because of multiplexing, it is necessary to know
both time_enabled, time_running to be able to scale counts correctly.

In this second version of the patch, we maintain a shadow
copy of ctx->time which allows us to compute ctx->time without
calling update_context_time() from NMI context. We avoid the
issue that update_context_time() must always be called with
ctx->lock held.

We do not keep shadow copies of the other event timings
because if the lead event is overflowing then it is active
and thus it's been scheduled in via event_sched_in() in
which case neither tstamp_stopped, tstamp_running can be modified.

This timing logic only applies to samples when PERF_SAMPLE_READ
is used.

Note that this patch does not address timing issues related
to sampling inheritance between tasks. This will be addressed
in a future patch.

With this patch, the libpfm4 example task_smpl now reports
correct counts (shown on 2.4GHz Core 2):

$ task_smpl -p 2400000000 -e unhalted_core_cycles:u,instructions_retired:u,baclears  noploop 5

ece413f59f xfs: remove incorrect assert in xfs_vm_writepage
In commit 20cb52ebd1, titled
"xfs: simplify xfs_vm_writepage" I added an assert that any !mapped and
uptodate buffers are not dirty.  That asserts turns out to trigger a lot
when running fsx on filesystems with small block sizes.  The reason for
that is that the assert is simply incorrect.  !mapped and uptodate
just mean this buffer covers a hole, and whenever we do a set_page_dirty
we mark all blocks in the page dirty, no matter if they have data or
not.  So remove the assert, and update the comment above the condition
to match reality.

57fe93b374 filter: make sure filters dont read uninitialized memory
There is a possibility malicious users can get limited information about
uninitialized stack mem array. Even if sk_run_filter() result is bound
to packet length (0 .. 65535), we could imagine this can be used by
hostile user.

Initializing mem[] array, like Dan Rosenberg suggested in his patch is
expensive since most filters dont even use this array.

Its hard to make the filter validation in sk_chk_filter(), because of
the jumps. This might be done later.

In this patch, I use a bitmap (a single long var) so that only filters
using mem[] loads/stores pay the price of added security checks.

For other filters, additional cost is a single instruction.

[ Since we access fentry->k a lot now, cache it in a local variable
  and mark filter entry pointer as const. -DaveM ]

f83282a8ef xfs: fix per-ag reference counting in inode reclaim tree walking
The walk fails to decrement the per-ag reference count when the
non-blocking walk fails to obtain the per-ag reclaim lock, leading
to an assert failure on debug kernels when unmounting a filesystem.

al_hreq is copied from userland.  If al_hreq.buflen is not properly aligned
then xfs_attr_list will ignore the last bytes of kbuf.  These bytes are
unitialized.  It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory.

e56c010f0d ARM: 6472/1: vexpress ct-ca9x4: only set twd_base if local timers are being used
In commit bde28b84, I made the assumption that CONFIG_SMP is always set
for the quad-core ct-ca9x4 platform. As it turns out, people who aren't
using the SMP goodness are confronted with a build failure.

This patch fixes this issue by ensure that twd_base is only set if
local timers are being used (and therefore SMP support is configured).

b5b8731219 perf trace: live-mode command-line cleanup
This patch attempts to make the perf trace command-line for live-mode
commands more user-friendly and consistent with other perf commands.

The main change it makes is to allow <commands> to be run as part of
perf trace live-mode commands, as other perf commands do, instead of
the system-wide traces they're currently hard-coded to by the shell
scripts.

With this patch, the following live-mode trace now works as expected:

 $ perf trace rw-by-pid ls -al

The previous system-wide behavior for this command would still be
available by explicitly specifying -a:

 $ perf trace rw-by-pid -a ls -al

and if no <command> is specified, the output is also system-wide:

 $ perf trace rw-by-pid

Because live-mode requires both record and report steps to be invoked,
it isn't always possible to know which args to send to the report and
which to send to the record steps - mainly this is the case for report
scripts with optional args - in those cases it would be necessary to
use separate 'perf trace record' and 'perf trace report' steps.

For example:

 $ perf trace syscall-counts ls

Here we can't decide whether ls should be passed as a param to the
syscall-counts script or whether we should invoke ls as a <command>.
In these cases, we just say that we'll ignore optional script params
and always interpret the extra arguments as a <command>.

If the user instead wants the other interpretation, that can be
accomplished by using separate record and report commands explicitly:

 $ perf trace record syscall-counts
 $ perf trace report syscall-counts ls

So the rules that this patch implements, which seem to make the most
intuitive sense for live-mode commands:

- for commands with optional args and commands with no args, no args
  are sent to the report script, all are sent to the record step

- for 'top' commands i.e. that end with 'top', <commands> can't be
  used - all extra args are send to the report script as params

- for commands with required args, the n required args are taken to be
  the first n args after the script name and sent to the report
  script, and the rest are sent to the record step

34c86ea97e perf trace record: handle commands correctly
Because the perf-trace shell scripts hard-coded the use of the
perf-record system-wide param, a perf trace record session was always
system wide, even if it was given a command.

If given a command, perf trace record now only records the events for
the command, as users expect.

If no command is given, or if the '-a' option is used, the recorded
events are system-wide, as before.

02e031cbc8 block: remove REQ_HARDBARRIER
REQ_HARDBARRIER is dead now, so remove the leftovers.  What's left
at this point is:

 - various checks inside the block layer.
 - sanity checks in bio based drivers.
 - now unused bio_empty_barrier helper.
 - Xen blockfront use of BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER - it's dead for a while,
   but Xen really needs to sort out it's barrier situaton.
 - setting of ordered tags in uas - dead code copied from old scsi
   drivers.
 - scsi different retry for barriers - it's dead and should have been
   removed when flushes were converted to FS requests.
 - blktrace handling of barriers - removed.  Someone who knows blktrace
   better should add support for REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA, though.

1447399b3e ioprio: fix RCU locking around task dereference
With 2.6.37-rc1, I observe sys_ioprio_set not taking the RCU lock [1]
across access to the task credentials.

Inspecting the code in fs/ioprio.c, the tasklist_lock is held for read
across the __task_cred call, which is presumably sufficient to prevent
the task credentials becoming stale.

===================================================

[ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
