commit 216c4e9db4c9d1d2a382b42880442dc632cd47d9 upstream.

In the current code we accidentally return the successful result from
idr_alloc() instead of a negative error pointer.  The caller is looking
for an error pointer and so it treats the returned value as a valid
pointer.

This one might be a bit serious because if it lets people get around the
kernel's protection for remapping NULL.  I'm not sure.

<title>powercap / RAPL: fix BIOS lock check</title>

commit 79a21dbfae3cd40d5a801778071a9967b79c2c20 upstream.

Intel RAPL initialized on several systems where the BIOS lock bit (msr
0x610, bit 63) was set.  This occured because the return value of
rapl_read_data_raw() was being checked, rather than the value of the variable
passed in, locked.

This patch properly implments the rapl_read_data_raw() call to check the
variable locked, and now the Intel RAPL driver outputs the warning:

	intel_rapl: RAPL package 0 domain package locked by BIOS

and does not initialize for the package.

commit 64c7569c065564a066bb44161f904b4afc9f3e3a upstream.

I've confirmed that monitoring the package power usage as well as setting power
limits appear to be working as expected. Supports the package and dram domains.

Energy counters may roll slowly for some RAPL domains, checking all
of them can be time consuming and takes unpredictable amount of time.
Therefore, we relax the sanity check by only checking availability of the
MSRs and non-zero value of the energy status counters. It has been shown
sufficient for all the platforms tested to filter out inactive domains.

<content type='text'>
Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:

	get_online_cpus();

	for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
		init_cpu(cpu);

	register_cpu_notifier(&amp;foobar_cpu_notifier);

	put_online_cpus();

This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).

Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:

	cpu_notifier_register_begin();

	for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
		init_cpu(cpu);

	/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
	__register_cpu_notifier(&amp;foobar_cpu_notifier);

	cpu_notifier_register_done();

Fix the intel-rapl code in the powercap driver by using this latter form
of callback registration. But retain the calls to get/put_online_cpus(),
since they also protect the function rapl_cleanup_data(). By nesting
get/put_online_cpus() *inside* cpu_notifier_register_begin/done(), we avoid
the ABBA deadlock possibility mentioned above.

Some RAPL domains may not be active at the time driver is being
loaded. Checking energy counter increment may be too strict and
time consuming. So relax the sanity check on energy counters of
these domains.

Otherwise, they may be ignored and become unavailable to the
powercap framework.
