Now that all KERN_<LEVEL> uses are prefixed with ASCII SOH, there is no
need for a KERN_CONT. Keep it backward compatible by adding #define
KERN_CONT ""
Reduces kernel image size a thousand bytes.

Instead of "<.>", use an ASCII SOH for the KERN_<LEVEL> prefix initiator.
This saves 1 byte per printk, thousands of bytes in a normal kernel.
No output changes are produced as vprintk_emit converts these uses to
"<.>".

Use the generic printk_get_level() to search a message for a kern_level.
Add __printf to verify format and arguments. Fix a few messages that
had mismatches in format and arguments. Add #ifdef CONFIG_PRINTK blocks
to shrink the object size a bit when not using printk.

The current form of a KERN_<LEVEL> is "<.>".
Add printk_get_level and printk_skip_level functions to handle these
formats.
These functions centralize tests of KERN_<LEVEL> so a future modification
can change the KERN_<LEVEL> style and shorten the number of bytes consumed
by these headers.

On the suspend/resume path the boot CPU does not go though an
offline->online transition. This breaks the NMI detector post-resume
since it depends on PMU state that is lost when the system gets
suspended.
Fix this by forcing a CPU offline->online transition for the lockup
detector on the boot CPU during resume.
To provide more context, we enable NMI watchdog on Chrome OS. We have
seen several reports of systems freezing up completely which indicated
that the NMI watchdog was not firing for some reason.
Debugging further, we found a simple way of repro'ing system freezes --
issuing the command 'tasket 1 sh -c "echo nmilockup > /proc/breakme"'
after the system has been suspended/resumed one or more times.
With this patch in place, the system freeze result in panics, as
expected.
These panics provide a nice stack trace for us to debug the actual issue
causing the freeze.

panic_lock is meant to ensure that panic processing takes place only on
one cpu; if any of the other cpus encounter a panic, they will spin
waiting to be shut down.
However, this causes a regression in this scenario:
1. Cpu 0 encounters a panic and acquires the panic_lock
and proceeds with the panic processing.
2. There is an interrupt on cpu 0 that also encounters
an error condition and invokes panic.
3. This second invocation fails to acquire the panic_lock
and enters the infinite while loop in panic_smp_self_stop.
Thus all panic processing is stopped, and the cpu is stuck for eternity
in the while(1) inside panic_smp_self_stop.
To address this, disable local interrupts with local_irq_disable before
acquiring the panic_lock. This will prevent interrupt handlers from
executing during the panic processing, thus avoiding this particular
problem.

clk_get() returns -ENOENT on error and some careless caller might
dereference it without error checking:
In mxc_rnga_remove():
struct clk *clk = clk_get(&pdev->dev, "rng");
// ...
clk_disable(clk);
Since it's insane to audit the lots of existing and future clk users,
let's add a check in the callee to avoid kernel panic and warn about
any buggy user.

Many drivers are shared between architectures that may or may not have
HAVE_CLK selected for them. To remove compilation errors for them we
enclose clk_*() calls in these drivers within #ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_CLK,
#endif.
This patch removes the need of these CONFIG_HAVE_CLK statements, by
introducing dummy routines when HAVE_CLK is not selected by platforms.
So, definition of these routines will always be available. These calls
will return error for platforms that don't select HAVE_CLK.

When the suid_dumpable sysctl is set to "2", and there is no core dump
pipe defined in the core_pattern sysctl, a local user can cause core files
to be written to root-writable directories, potentially with
user-controlled content.
This means an admin can unknowningly reintroduce a variation of
CVE-2006-2451, allowing local users to gain root privileges.
$ cat /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable
2
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
core
$ ulimit -c unlimited
$ cd /
$ ls -l core
ls: cannot access core: No such file or directory
$ touch core
touch: cannot touch `core': Permission denied
$ OHAI="evil-string-here" ping localhost >/dev/null 2>&1 &
$ pid=$!
$ sleep 1
$ kill -SEGV $pid
$ ls -l core
-rw------- 1 root kees 458752 Jun 21 11:35 core
$ sudo strings core | grep evil
OHAI=evil-string-here
While cron has been fixed to abort reading a file when there is any
parse error, there are still other sensitive directories that will read
any file present and skip unparsable lines.
Instead of introducing a suid_dumpable=3 mode and breaking all users of
mode 2, this only disables the unsafe portion of mode 2 (writing to disk
via relative path). Most users of mode 2 (e.g. Chrome OS) already use
a core dump pipe handler, so this change will not break them. For the
situations where a pipe handler is not defined but mode 2 is still
active, crash dumps will only be written to fully qualified paths. If a
relative path is defined (e.g. the default "core" pattern), dump
attempts will trigger a printk yelling about the lack of a fully
qualified path.

This replaces the calls to ioremap/iounmap in efi_setup_pcdp_console()
with calls to early_ioremap/early_iounmap which can be called during
early boot.
This patch was tested on an x86_64 prototype system which uses the
HCDP/PCDP table for early console setup.

Commit a6bc32b89922 ("mm: compaction: introduce sync-light migration for
use by compaction") changed the declaration of migrate_pages() and
migrate_huge_pages().
But it missed changing the argument of migrate_huge_pages() in
soft_offline_huge_page(). In this case, we should call
migrate_huge_pages() with MIGRATE_SYNC.
Additionally, there is a mismatch between type the of argument and the
function declaration for migrate_pages().

For some reason, when the lirc daemon learns that a usb remote control
has been unplugged, it wants to read the sysfs attributes of the
disappearing device. This is useful for uncovering transient
inconsistencies, but less so for keeping the system running when such
inconsistencies exist.
Under some circumstances (like every time I unplug my dvb stick from
my laptop), lirc catches an rc_dev whose raw event handler has been
removed (presumably by ir_raw_event_unregister), and proceeds to
interrogate the raw protocols supported by the NULL pointer.
This patch avoids the NULL dereference, and ignores the issue of how
this state of affairs came about in the first place.
Version 2 incorporates changes recommended by Mauro Carvalho Chehab
(-ENODEV instead of -EINVAL, and a signed-off-by).

This patch will always set the field to INTERLACED (this fixes a bug were a driver should
never return FIELD_ANY), and will default to YUYV pixelformat if an unknown pixelformat
was specified.
This way S/TRY_FMT will always return a valid format struct.

'sync' writes set both REQ_SYNC and REQ_NOIDLE.
O_DIRECT writes set REQ_SYNC but not REQ_NOIDLE.
We currently assume that a REQ_SYNC request will not be followed by
more requests and so set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE to expedite the
request.
This is appropriate for sync requests, but not for O_DIRECT requests.
So make the setting of STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE conditional on REQ_NOIDLE
rather than REQ_SYNC. This is consistent with the documented meaning
of REQ_NOIDLE:
__REQ_NOIDLE, /* don't anticipate more IO after this one */

If a resync of a RAID1 array with 2 devices finds a known bad block
one device it will neither read from, or write to, that device for
this block offset.
So there will be one read_target (The other device) and zero write
targets.
This condition causes md/raid1 to abort the resync assuming that it
has finished - without known bad blocks this would be true.
When there are no write targets because of the presence of bad blocks
we should only skip over the area covered by the bad block.
RAID10 already gets this right, raid1 doesn't. Or didn't.
As this can cause a 'sync' to abort early and appear to have succeeded
it could lead to some data corruption, so it suitable for -stable.

do_md_stop tests mddev->openers while holding ->open_mutex,
and fails if this count is too high.
So callers do not need to check mddev->openers and doing so isn't
very meaningful as they don't hold ->open_mutex so the number could
change.
So remove the unnecessary tests on mddev->openers.
These are not called often enough for there to be any gain in
an early test on ->open_mutex to avoid the need for a slightly more
costly mutex_lock call.

Because bios will merge at block-layer,so bios-error may caused by other
bio which be merged into to the same request.
Using this flag,it will find exactly error-sector and not do redundant
operation like re-write and re-read.
V0->V1:Using REQ_FLUSH instead REQ_NOMERGE avoid bio merging at block
layer.

For SSD, if request size exceeds specific value (optimal io size), request size
isn't important for bandwidth. In such condition, if making request size bigger
will cause some disks idle, the total throughput will actually drop. A good
example is doing a readahead in a two-disk raid1 setup.
So when should we split big requests? We absolutly don't want to split big
request to very small requests. Even in SSD, big request transfer is more
efficient. This patch only considers request with size above optimal io size.
If all disks are busy, is it worth doing a split? Say optimal io size is 16k,
two requests 32k and two disks. We can let each disk run one 32k request, or
split the requests to 4 16k requests and each disk runs two. It's hard to say
which case is better, depending on hardware.
So only consider case where there are idle disks. For readahead, split is
always better in this case. And in my test, below patch can improve > 30%
thoughput. Hmm, not 100%, because disk isn't 100% busy.
Such case can happen not just in readahead, for example, in directio. But I
suppose directio usually will have bigger IO depth and make all disks busy, so
I ignored it.
Note: if the raid uses any hard disk, we don't prevent merging. That will make
performace worse.

SSD hasn't spindle, distance between requests means nothing. And the original
distance based algorithm sometimes can cause severe performance issue for SSD
raid.
Considering two thread groups, one accesses file A, the other access file B.
The first group will access one disk and the second will access the other disk,
because requests are near from one group and far between groups. In this case,
read balance might keep one disk very busy but the other relative idle. For
SSD, we should try best to distribute requests to as many disks as possible.
There isn't spindle move penality anyway.
With below patch, I can see more than 50% throughput improvement sometimes
depending on workloads.
The only exception is small requests can be merged to a big request which
typically can drive higher throughput for SSD too. Such small requests are
sequential reads. Unlike hard disk, sequential read which can't be merged (for
example direct IO, or read without readahead) can be ignored for SSD. Again
there is no spindle move penality. readahead dispatches small requests and such
requests can be merged.
Last patch can help detect sequential read well, at least if concurrent read
number isn't greater than raid disk number. In that case, distance based
algorithm doesn't work well too.
V2: For hard disk and SSD mixed raid, doesn't use distance based algorithm for
random IO too. This makes the algorithm generic for raid with SSD.
