fuse does not work on ARM due to cache incoherency issues - fuse wants
to use get_user_pages() to copy data from the current process into
kernel space. However, since this accesses userspace via the kernel
mapping, the kernel mapping can be out of date wrt data written to
userspace.
This can lead to unpredictable behaviour (in the case of fuse) or data
corruption for direct-IO.
This resolves debian bug #402876

Since get_user_pages() may be used with processes other than the
current process and calls flush_anon_page(), flush_anon_page() has to
cope in some way with non-current processes.
It may not be appropriate, or even desirable to flush a region of
virtual memory cache in the current process when that is different to
the process that we want the flush to occur for.
Therefore, pass the vma into flush_anon_page() so that the architecture
can work out whether the 'vmaddr' is for the current process or not.

The MMCI driver might end up aborting the initial command and leaving
the data part of the command sequence still in place. Avoid this
problem by ensuring that any data sequence is properly cleared out
when a command completes.

According to the Tavor and Arbel programmer's reference manuals, the
number of bytes transferred is not provided in the byte_cnt field of
the CQ entry for atomic operation completions. For atomic operations,
the number of bytes transferred is always 8 (when the status is
"success"), and this constant value should always be used by the
driver in the ib_wc entry returned, rather than using the CQE.

There's a problem with how rdma cm events are reported to userspace
that can lead to application crashes.
When a new connection request arrives, a context for the connection is
allocated in the kernel. The connection event is then reported to
userspace. The userspace library retrieves the event and allocates
its own context for the connection. The userspace context is
associated with the kernel's context when accepting. This allows the
kernel to give userspace context with other events.
A problem occurs if a second event for the same connection occurs
before the user has had a chance to call accept. The userspace
context has not yet been set, which causes the librdmacm to crash.
(This has been seen when the app takes too long to call accept,
resulting in the remote side timing out and rejecting the connection)
Fix this by ignoring events for new connections until userspace has
set their context. This can only happen if an error occurs on a new
connection before the user accepts it. This is okay, since the accept
will just fail later.

If the kernel attempts to execute a CP1 or CP2 instruction and it

This reverts commit 59287c0913cc9a6c75712a775f6c1c1ef418ef3b.
Hugh Dickins reports that it causes random failures on x86 with SuSE
10.2, and points out
"Isn't that randomization, anywhere from 0x10000 to ELF_ET_DYN_BASE,
sure to place the ET_DYN from time to time just where the comment
says it's trying to avoid? I assume that somehow results in the error
reported."
(where the comment in question is the existing comment in the source
code about mmap/brk clashes).

On ia64, the various functions that make up cn_proc.c cause kernel
unaligned access errors.
If you are using these, for example, to get notification about all tasks
forking and exiting, you get multiple unaligned access errors per process.
Use put_unaligned() in the appropriate palces to fix this.

Looks like this is the problem, which point Al Viro some time ago:
ufs's get_block callback allocates 16k of disk at a time, and links that
entire 16k into the file's metadata. But because get_block is called for only
a single buffer_head (a 2k buffer_head in this case?) we are only able to tell
the VFS that this 2k is buffer_new().
So when ufs_getfrag_block() is later called to map some more data in the file,
and when that data resides within the remaining 14k of this fragment,
ufs_getfrag_block() will incorrectly return a !buffer_new() buffer_head.
I don't see _right_ way to do nullification of whole block, if use inode
page cache, some pages may be outside of inode limits (inode size), and
will be lost; if use blockdev page cache it is possible to zero real data,
if later inode page cache will be used.
The simpliest way, as can I see usage of block device page cache, but not only
mark dirty, but also sync it during "nullification". I use my simple tests
collection, which I used for check that create,open,write,read,close works on
ufs, and I see that this patch makes ufs code 18% slower then before.

These days, if you swapoff when there isn't enough memory, OOM killer gives
"BUG: scheduling while atomic" and the machine hangs: badness() needs to do
its PF_SWAPOFF return after the task_unlock (tasklist_lock is also held
here, so p isn't going to be freed: PF_SWAPOFF might get turned off at any
moment, but that doesn't really matter).

Both process_zones() and drain_node_pages() check for populated zones
before touching pagesets. However, __drain_pages does not do so,
This may result in a NULL pointer dereference for pagesets in unpopulated
zones if a NUMA setup is combined with cpu hotplug.
Initially the unpopulated zone has the pcp pointers pointing to the boot
pagesets. Since the zone is not populated the boot pageset pointers will
not be changed during page allocator and slab bootstrap.
If a cpu is later brought down (first call to __drain_pages()) then the pcp
pointers for cpus in unpopulated zones are set to NULL since __drain_pages
does not first check for an unpopulated zone.
If the cpu is then brought up again then we call process_zones() which will
ignore the unpopulated zone. So the pageset pointers will still be NULL.
If the cpu is then again brought down then __drain_pages will attempt to
drain pages by following the NULL pageset pointer for unpopulated zones.

The HPT37x driver very carefully handles DMA completions and the needed
fixups are done on pci registers 0x50 and 0x52. This is unfortunate
because the actual registers are 0x50 and 0x54. Fixing this offset cures
the second channel problems reported.
Secondly there are some problems with the HPT370 and certain ATA drives.
The filter code however only filters ATAPI devices due to a reversed type
check.
