So it seems to me the following patch would be the right one: [akpm@osdl.org: compile fix] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> 27 August 2006, 18:01:29 UTC

c06aad8 Daniel Kobras 27 August 2006, 08:23:24 UTC [PATCH] dm: Fix deadlock under high i/o load in raid1 setup. On an nForce4-equipped machine with two SATA disk in raid1 setup using dmraid, we experienced frequent deadlock of the system under high i/o load. 'cat /dev/zero > ~/zero' was the most reliable way to reproduce them: Randomly after a few GB, 'cp' would be left in 'D' state along with kjournald and kmirrord. The functions cp and kjournald were blocked in did vary, but kmirrord's wchan always pointed to 'mempool_alloc()'. We've seen this pattern on 2.6.15 and 2.6.17 kernels. http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/4/20/142 indicates that this problem has been around even before. So much for the facts, here's my interpretation: mempool_alloc() first tries to atomically allocate the requested memory, or falls back to hand out preallocated chunks from the mempool. If both fail, it puts the calling process (kmirrord in this case) on a private waitqueue until somebody refills the pool. Where the only 'somebody' is kmirrord itself, so we have a deadlock. I worked around this problem by falling back to a (blocking) kmalloc when before kmirrord would have ended up on the waitqueue. This defeats part of the benefits of using the mempool, but at least keeps the system running. And it could be done with a two-line change. Note that mempool_alloc() clears the GFP_NOIO flag internally, and only uses it to decide whether to wait or return an error if immediate allocation fails, so the attached patch doesn't change behaviour in the non-deadlocking case. Path is against current git (2.6.18-rc4), but should apply to earlier versions as well. I've tested on 2.6.15, where this patch makes the difference between random lockup and a stable system.

66a377c Ian McDonald 27 August 2006, 06:40:50 UTC [DCCP]: Fix CCID3 This fixes CCID3 to give much closer performance to RFC4342. CCID3 is meant to alter sending rate based on RTT and loss. The performance was verified against: http://wand.net.nz/~perry/max_download.php For example I tested with netem and had the following parameters: Delayed Acks 1, MSS 256 bytes, RTT 105 ms, packet loss 5%. This gives a theoretical speed of 71.9 Kbits/s. I measured across three runs with this patch set and got 70.1 Kbits/s. Without this patchset the average was 232 Kbits/s which means Linux can't be used for CCID3 research properly. I also tested with netem turned off so box just acting as router with 1.2 msec RTT. The performance with this is the same with or without the patch at around 30 Mbit/s. Signed off by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: David S.

The patch changes the PCI init code to have PCBIOS as last fallback, yet the PCBIOS code still has to run first to set pcibios_last_bus to the value reported by the BIOS. this is needed in case legacy PCI probing (arch/i386/pci/legacy.c) is used to detect peer busses. using direct access if available fixes the cardbus problems.

faf9b61 Hans de Goede 25 August 2006, 08:24:20 UTC [PATCH] hwmon: abituguru timeout fixes This patch contains 2 sets of fixes for the abituguru: 1) Much improved timeout handling, drasticly reducing the amount of timeout errors on some motherboards 2) Fix the exit paths in the bank1 sensor type detect code to always restore the original settings even on an error. Without this our special test settings could remain seriously confusing the system BIOS's setup menu. Both are very much related and are must haves, to avoid messing up the uguru CMOS settings. Detailed changes: - Much improved timeout / wait for status handling. Many thanks to Sunil Kumar, for all his testing, ideas and patches! The code now first busy waits, polling the uguru for the expected status as this usually succeeds pretty quickly (within 90 reads). To avoid unnecessary CPU burn in timeout conditions, the amount of busy waiting has been halved from previous versions (120 tries instead of 250). This is not a problem, because this version goes to sleep after 120 attemps for 1 jiffy and then tries again, it does this sleep and try again 5 times before finally giving up. This (almost?) completly removes the timeout errors some people have seen regulary. Apparently some older uguru versions sometimes are distracted for a (relatively) long time. This solves this. - These timeout errors not only occur in the sending address part of reading the uguru but also in the wait for read state, so errors in this state are now handled as retryable just like send address state errors and are only logged and reported to userspace if 3 executive tries fail. - Fix a very nasty bug in the bank1 sensor type detection code, where it would not restore the original settings in any of the error paths! - Since not successfully restoring the original settings can seriously confuse the system BIOS (hang when entering the relevant setup menu), we now try restoring them 3 times before giving up.

0db99e3 Mike Christie 26 August 2006, 07:00:22 UTC [SCSI] fix scsi_send_eh_cmnd regression The callers of scsi_send_eh_cmnd are setting the cmnd buffer, and then scsi_send_eh_cmnd is copying that updated buffer to the old_cmnd variable. Then after the command runs, we end up copying that old_cmnd var which has the new cmnd to the scsi command buffer. When this command gets recent, all types of fun things happen like getting TUR or START_STOP commands with data and scatterlists. This patch made against scsi-rc-fixes, has the callers of scsi_send_eh_cmnd pass in the command so scsi_send_eh_cmnd can do the right thing. This should go into 2.6.18 since this fixes a regression added when we removed some of the scsi_cmnd fields and replaced them with local variables.

a343bb7 Trond Myklebust 23 August 2006, 00:06:03 UTC VFS: Fix access("file", X_OK) in the presence of ACLs Currently, the access() call will return incorrect information on NFS if there exists an ACL that grants execute access to the user on a regular file. The reason the information is incorrect is that the VFS overrides this execute access in open_exec() by checking (inode->i_mode & 0111).

e889649 David Howells 24 August 2006, 19:44:19 UTC NFS: Check lengths more thoroughly in NFS4 readdir XDR decode Check the bounds of length specifiers more thoroughly in the XDR decoding of NFS4 readdir reply data. Currently, if the server returns a bitmap or attr length that causes the current decode point pointer to wrap, this could go undetected (consider a small "negative" length on a 32-bit machine). Also add a check into the main XDR decode handler to make sure that the amount of data is a multiple of four bytes (as specified by RFC-1014). This makes sure that we can do u32* pointer subtraction in the NFS client without risking an undefined result (the result is undefined if the pointers are not correctly aligned with respect to one another).

a634904 ASANO Masahiro 23 August 2006, 00:06:02 UTC VFS: add lookup hint for network file systems I'm trying to speeding up mkdir(2) for network file systems. A typical mkdir(2) calls two inode_operations: lookup and mkdir. The lookup operation would fail with ENOENT in common case. I think it is unnecessary because the subsequent mkdir operation can check it. In case of creat(2), lookup operation is called with the LOOKUP_CREATE flag, so individual filesystem can omit real lookup. e.g. nfs_lookup(). Here is a sample patch which uses LOOKUP_CREATE and O_EXCL on mkdir, symlink and mknod. This uses the gadget for creat(2).

Alright, this one is only triggered when slab debugging is enabled. The slabs are assumed to be aligned on a HUGEPTE_TABLE_SIZE boundary. The free path makes use of this assumption and uses the lowest nibble to pass around an index into an array of kmem_cache pointers. With slab debugging turned on, the slab is still aligned, but the "working" object pointer is not. This would break the assumption above that a full nibble is available for the PGF_CACHENUM_MASK. The following patch reduces PGF_CACHENUM_MASK to cover only the two least significant bits, which is enough to cover the current number of 4 pgtable cache types. Then use this constant to mask out the appropriate part of the huge pte pointer.

5db9fa9 Nathan Lynch 23 August 2006, 01:36:05 UTC [POWERPC] Fix gettimeofday inaccuracies There are two problems in the powerpc gettimeofday code which can cause incorrect results to be returned. The first is that there is a race between do_gettimeofday and the timer interrupt: 1. do_gettimeofday does get_tb() 2. decrementer exception on boot cpu which runs timer_recalc_offset, which also samples the timebase and updates the do_gtod structure with a greater timebase value. 3. do_gettimeofday calls __do_gettimeofday, which leads to the negative result from tb_val - temp_varp->tb_orig_stamp. The second is caused by taking the boot cpu offline, which can cause the value of tb_last_jiffy to be increased past the currently available timebase, causing the same underflow as above.

c46f477 David S. Miller 21 August 2006, 22:27:16 UTC [SPARC64]: Fix pfn_pte() build failure. The "%uhi" needs to be "%%uhi" because we want a real "%" character in the assembler here, instead of an assembler variable expansion. Aparently older GCCs were more liberal and interpreted this %-letter as a literal "%" for whatever reason. Based upon a build failure report from Meelis Roos. Signed-off-by: David S.

316c159 Stephen Hemminger 22 August 2006, 07:06:11 UTC [TCP]: Limit window scaling if window is clamped. This small change allows for easy per-route workarounds for broken hosts or middleboxes that are not compliant with TCP standards for window scaling. Rather than having to turn off window scaling globally. This patch allows reducing or disabling window scaling if window clamp is present. Example: Mark Lord reported a problem with 2.6.17 kernel being unable to access http://www.everymac.com # ip route add 216.145.246.23/32 via 10.8.0.1 window 65535 Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

c164a9b Sridhar Samudrala 22 August 2006, 18:50:39 UTC Fix sctp privilege elevation (CVE-2006-3745) sctp_make_abort_user() now takes the msg_len along with the msg so that we don't have to recalculate the bytes in iovec. It also uses memcpy_fromiovec() so that we don't go beyond the length allocated. It is good to have this fix even if verify_iovec() is fixed to return error on overflow.

f1a58ec Tejun Heo 20 August 2006, 08:56:38 UTC [PATCH] ata_piix: fix ghost device probing by honoring PCS present bits Move out PCS handling from piix_sata_prereset() into piix_sata_present_mask() and use it from newly implemented piix_sata_softreset(). Class codes for devices which are indicated to be absent by PCS are cleared to ATA_DEV_NONE. This fixes ghost device problem reported on ICH6 and 7. This patch moves PCS handling from prereset to softreset, which makes two behavior changes. * perform softreset even when PCS indicates no device * PCS handling is repeated before retrying softresets due to reset failures. Both behavior changes are intended and more consistent with how other drivers behave.
