[PATCH] mm: kmemleak: Ensure that the task stack is not freed during scanning

Commit 68f24b08ee89 ("sched/core: Free the stack early if CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK") may cause the task->stack to be freed during kmemleak_scan() execution, leading to either a NULL pointer fault (if task->stack is NULL) or kmemleak accessing already freed memory. This patch uses the new

[PATCH v1 0/4] Enabling Ring 3 MONITOR/MWAIT feature for Knights Landing

These patches enable Intel Xeon Phi x200 feature to use MONITOR/MWAIT instruction in ring 3 (userspace) Patches set MSR 0x140 for all logical CPUs. Then expose it as CPU feature and introduces elf HWCAP capability for x86. Reference:

[PATCH v1 4/4] Add R3MWAIT to CPU features

Add cpu feature for ring 3 monitor/mwait. Change-Id: Iba4d20639efd8d3637d37db9294cbc43a98f009a Signed-off-by: Grzegorz Andrejczuk --- arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeature.h| 6 -- arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h | 6 +-

[PATCH v1 2/4] Add enabling of the R3 MWAIT during boot for KNL

If processor is Intel Xeon Phi we enable user-level mwait feature. Enabling this feature suppreses invalid-opcode error, when MONITOR/MWAIT is called from ring 3. Change-Id: I1c7defb99296b022790a068a6c725b3e860cd68c Signed-off-by: Grzegorz Andrejczuk ---

[PATCH v1 1/4] Add R3MWAIT register and bit to msr-info.h

Intel Xeon Phi x200 (codenamed Knights Landing) has MSR MISC_THD_FEATURE_ENABLE 0x140. Setting its 2nd bit make MONITOR and MWAIT instructions do not cause invalid-opcode exception. This commit adds this register prefixed by PHI and bit to msr-info.h Reference:

[PATCH] acpi: don't register acpi_pad driver if running as xen dom0

[PATCH v2] usb: dwc3: gadget: Wait for end transfer complete before free irq

When we change the USB function with configfs frequently, sometimes it will hang the system to crash. The reason is the gadget driver can not hanle the end transfer complete event after free the gadget irq (since the xHCI will share the same interrupt number with gadget, thus when free the gadget
