According to libata-core correctly around line 6572:
/* parse id */
p = strchr(id, '.');
...
the optional device is separated from the port in the libata.force ID
by a point or dot instead of by a colon.
Fix documentation to reflect this.

The reipl device information is passed from the kernel to zfcpdump
using a pointer in the lowcore (0xe00) that points to the reipl
information Currently if that pointer is not zero, we copy the reipl
information. If the pointer is not initialized and points outside
the accessible memory, it can happen that the memory copy fails.
In that case we currently stop the initialization of zcore which leads
to a failing kernel dump. The correct behavior is to disable the reipl
after dump and continue with zcore intialization.

Commit "timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp" (0696b711e)
introduced the new parameter "mult" to update_vsyscall(). This parameter
contains the internal NTP adjusted clock multiplier.
The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier. Instead, it used
the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()
variants. This may result in observable time warps as explained in
commit 0696b711e.
Make the NTP adjusted clock multiplier available to the s390x vdso
implementation and use it for time calculations.

When the dt3155 driver is built-in (not as a loadable module),
these build errors happen:

creds_are_invalid() reads both cred->usage and cred->subscribers and then
compares them to make sure the number of processes subscribed to a cred struct
never exceeds the refcount of that cred struct.
The problem is that this can cause a race with both copy_creds() and
exit_creds() as the two counters, whilst they are of atomic_t type, are only
atomic with respect to themselves, and not atomic with respect to each other.
This means that if creds_are_invalid() can read the values on one CPU whilst
they're being modified on another CPU, and so can observe an evolving state in
which the subscribers count now is greater than the usage count a moment
before.
Switching the order in which the counts are read cannot help, so the thing to
do is to remove that particular check.
I had considered rechecking the values to see if they're in flux if the test
fails, but I can't guarantee they won't appear the same, even if they've
changed several times in the meantime.
Note that this can only happen if CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS is enabled.
The problem is only likely to occur with multithreaded programs, and can be
tested by the tst-eintr1 program from glibc's "make check". The symptoms look
like:
CRED: Invalid credentials
CRED: At include/linux/cred.h:240
CRED: Specified credentials: ffff88003dda5878 [real][eff]
CRED: ->magic=43736564, put_addr=(null)

CRED: ->security is ffff88003d72f538

Patch 570b8fb505896e007fd3bb07573ba6640e51851d:
Author: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>
Date: Tue Mar 30 00:04:00 2010 +0100
Subject: CRED: Fix memory leak in error handling
attempts to fix a memory leak in the error handling by making the offending
return statement into a jump down to the bottom of the function where a
kfree(tgcred) is inserted.
This is, however, incorrect, as it does a kfree() after doing put_cred() if
security_prepare_creds() fails. That will result in a double free if 'error'
is jumped to as put_cred() will also attempt to free the new tgcred record by
virtue of it being pointed to by the new cred record.

Before commit e28cbf22933d0c0ccaf3c4c27a1a263b41f73859 ("improve
sys_newuname() for compat architectures") 64-bit x86 had a private
implementation of sys_uname which was just called sys_uname, which other
architectures used for the old uname.
Due to some merge issues with the uname refactoring patches we ended up
calling the old uname version for both the old and new system call
slots, which lead to the domainname filed never be set which caused
failures with libnss_nis.

Currently we set eflags.vm unconditionally when entering real mode emulation
through virtual-8086 mode, and clear it unconditionally when we enter protected
mode. The means that the following sequence
KVM_SET_REGS (rflags.vm=1)
KVM_SET_SREGS (cr0.pe=1)
Ends up with rflags.vm clear due to KVM_SET_SREGS triggering enter_pmode().
Fix by shadowing rflags.vm (and rflags.iopl) correctly while in real mode:
reads and writes to those bits access a shadow register instead of the actual
register.

There is a quirk for AMD K8 CPUs in many Linux kernels (see
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c:__mcheck_cpu_apply_quirks()) that
clears bit 10 in that MCE related MSR. KVM can only cope with all
zeros or all ones, so it will inject a #GP into the guest, which
will let it panic.
So lets add a quirk to the quirk and ignore this single cleared bit.
This fixes -cpu kvm64 on all machines and -cpu host on K8 machines
with some guest Linux kernels.

The recent anon_vma fixes cause many anonymous pages to end up
in the parent process anon_vma, even when the page is exclusively
owned by the current process.
Adding exclusively owned anonymous pages to the top anon_vma
reduces rmap scanning overhead, especially in workloads with
forking servers.
This patch adds a parameter to __page_set_anon_rmap that can
be used to indicate whether or not the added page is exclusively
owned by the current process.
Pages added through page_add_new_anon_rmap are exclusively
owned by the current process, and can be added to the top
anon_vma.
Pages added through page_add_anon_rmap can be either shared
or exclusively owned, so we do the conservative thing and
add it to the oldest anon_vma.
A next step would be to add the exclusive parameter to
page_add_anon_rmap, to be used from functions where we do
know for sure whether a page is exclusively owned.

Vaugue warnings about ENAMETOOLONG errors when looking up an encrypted
file name have caused many users to become concerned about their data.
Since this is a rather harmless condition, I'm moving this warning to
only be printed when the ecryptfs_verbosity module param is 1.

The timestamps and size of a lower inode involved in a link() call was
being copied to the upper parent inode. Instead, we should be
copying lower parent inode's timestamps and size to the upper parent
inode. I discovered this bug using the POSIX test suite at Tuxera.

Since tmpfs has no persistent storage, it pins all its dentries in memory
so they have d_count=1 when other file systems would have d_count=0.
->lookup is only used to create new dentries. If the caller doesn't
instantiate it, it's freed immediately at dput(). ->readdir reads
directly from the dcache and depends on the dentries being hashed.
When an ecryptfs mount is mounted, it associates the lower file and dentry
with the ecryptfs files as they're accessed. When it's umounted and
destroys all the in-memory ecryptfs inodes, it fput's the lower_files and
d_drop's the lower_dentries. Commit 4981e081 added this and a d_delete in
2008 and several months later commit caeeeecf removed the d_delete. I
believe the d_drop() needs to be removed as well.
The d_drop effectively hides any file that has been accessed via ecryptfs
from the underlying tmpfs since it depends on it being hashed for it to
be accessible. I've removed the d_drop on my development node and see no
ill effects with basic testing on both tmpfs and persistent storage.
As a side effect, after ecryptfs d_drops the dentries on tmpfs, tmpfs
BUGs on umount. This is due to the dentries being unhashed.
tmpfs->kill_sb is kill_litter_super which calls d_genocide to drop
the reference pinning the dentry. It skips unhashed and negative dentries,
but shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree doesn't. Since those dentries
still have an elevated d_count, we get a BUG().
This patch removes the d_drop call and fixes both issues.

If the lower file system driver has extended attributes disabled,
ecryptfs' own access functions return -ENOSYS instead of -EOPNOTSUPP.
This breaks execution of programs in the ecryptfs mount, since the
kernel expects the latter error when checking for security
capabilities in xattrs.

Create a getattr handler for eCryptfs symlinks that is capable of
reading the lower target and decrypting its path. Prior to this patch,
a stat's st_size field would represent the strlen of the encrypted path,
while readlink() would return the strlen of the decrypted path. This
could lead to confusion in some userspace applications, since the two
values should be equal.
