Subject: [PATCH] ext4: fix a race in the ext4 shutdown path
This patch fixes a race between the shutdown path and bio completion
handling. In the ext4 direct io path with async io, after submitting a
bio to the block layer, if journal starting fails,
ext4_direct_IO_write() would bail out pretending that the IO
failed. The caller would have had no way of knowing whether or not the
IO was successfully submitted. So instead, we return -EIOCBQUEUED in
this case. Now, the caller knows that the IO was submitted. The bio
completion handler takes care of the error.
Tested: Ran the shutdown xfstest test 461 in loop for over 2 hours across
4 machines resulting in over 400 runs. Verified that the race didn't
occur. Usually the race was seen in about 20-30 iterations.

Subject: [PATCH] Revert "apple-gmux: lock iGP IO to protect from vgaarb
changes"
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Commit 4eebd5a4e726 ("apple-gmux: lock iGP IO to protect from vgaarb
changes") amended this driver's ->probe hook to lock decoding of normal
(non-legacy) I/O space accesses to the integrated GPU on dual-GPU
MacBook Pros. The lock stays in place until the driver is unbound.
The change was made to work around an issue with the out-of-tree nvidia
graphics driver (available at http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html).
It contains the following sequence in nvidia/nv.c:
#if defined(CONFIG_VGA_ARB) && !defined(NVCPU_PPC64LE)
#if defined(VGA_DEFAULT_DEVICE)
vga_tryget(VGA_DEFAULT_DEVICE, VGA_RSRC_LEGACY_MASK);
#endif
vga_set_legacy_decoding(dev, VGA_RSRC_NONE);
#endif
This code was reported to cause deadlocks with VFIO already in 2013:
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/545560
I've reported the issue to Nvidia developers once more in 2017:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/dri-devel/msg138754.html
On the MacBookPro10,1, this code apparently breaks backlight control
(which is handled by apple-gmux via an I/O region starting at 0x700),
as reported by Petri Hodju:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86121
I tried to replicate Petri's observations on my MacBook9,1, which uses
the same Intel Ivy Bridge + Nvidia GeForce GT 650M architecture, to no
avail. On my machine apple-gmux' I/O region remains accessible even
with the nvidia driver loaded and commit 4eebd5a4e726 reverted.
Petri reported that apple-gmux becomes accessible again after a
suspend/resume cycle because the BIOS changed the VGA routing on the
root port to the Nvidia GPU. Perhaps this is a BIOS issue after all
that can be fixed with an update?
In any case, the change made by commit 4eebd5a4e726 has turned out to
cause two new issues:
* Wilfried Klaebe reports a deadlock when launching Xorg because it
opens /dev/vga_arbiter and calls vga_get(), but apple-gmux is holding
a lock on I/O space indefinitely. It looks like apple-gmux' current
behavior is an abuse of the vgaarb API as locks are not meant to be
held for longer periods:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88861#c11https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=217541
* On dual GPU MacBook Pros introduced since 2013, the integrated GPU is
powergated on boot und thus becomes invisible to Linux unless a custom
EFI protocol is used to leave it powered on. (A patch exists but is
not in mainline yet due to several negative side effects.) On these
machines, locking I/O to the integrated GPU (as done by 4eebd5a4e726)
fails and backlight control is therefore broken:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105051
So let's revert commit 4eebd5a4e726 please. Users experiencing the
issue with the proprietary nvidia driver can comment out the above-
quoted problematic code as a workaround (or try updating the BIOS).

Subject: x86/speculation: Add <asm/msr-index.h> dependency
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz(a)infradead.org>
commit ea00f301285ea2f07393678cd2b6057878320c9d upstream.
Joe Konno reported a compile failure resulting from using an MSR
without inclusion of <asm/msr-index.h>, and while the current code builds
fine (by accident) this needs fixing for future patches.

Subject: x86/spectre: Fix an error message
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter(a)oracle.com>
commit 9de29eac8d2189424d81c0d840cd0469aa3d41c8 upstream.
If i == ARRAY_SIZE(mitigation_options) then we accidentally print
garbage from one space beyond the end of the mitigation_options[] array.
