e1ee65d NOMMU: Fix __get_user_pages() to pin last page on offset buffers Fix __get_user_pages() to make it pin the last page on a buffer that doesn't begin at the start of a page, but is a multiple of PAGE_SIZE in size. The problem is that __get_user_pages() advances the pointer too much when it iterates to the next page if the page it's currently looking at isn't used from the first byte. This can cause the end of a short VMA to be reached prematurely, resulting in the last page being lost. Signed-off-by: Steven J.

7561e8c NOMMU: Revert 'nommu: get_user_pages(): pin last page on non-page-aligned start' Revert the following patch: commit c08c6e1f54c85fc299cf9f88cf330d6dd28a9a1d Author: Steven J. Magnani <steve@digidescorp.com> Date: Fri Mar 5 13:42:24 2010 -0800 nommu: get_user_pages(): pin last page on non-page-aligned start As it assumes that the mappings begin at the start of pages - something that isn't necessarily true on NOMMU systems. On NOMMU systems, it is possible for a mapping to only occupy part of the page, and not necessarily touch either end of it; in fact it's also possible for multiple non-overlapping mappings to coexist on one page (consider direct mappings of ROMFS files, for example).

d558b48 x86/PCI: truncate _CRS windows with _LEN > _MAX - _MIN + 1 Yanko's GA-MA78GM-S2H (BIOS F11) reports the following resource in a PCI host bridge _CRS: [07] 32-Bit DWORD Address Space Resource Min Relocatability : MinFixed Max Relocatability : MaxFixed Address Minimum : CFF00000 (_MIN) Address Maximum : FEBFFFFF (_MAX) Address Length : 3EE10000 (_LEN) This is invalid per spec (ACPI 4.0, 6.4.3.5) because it's a fixed size, fixed location descriptor, but _LEN != _MAX - _MIN + 1. Based on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15480#c15, I think Windows handles this by truncating the window so it fits between _MIN and _MAX. I also verified this by modifying the SeaBIOS DSDT and booting Windows 2008 R2 with qemu. This patch makes Linux truncate the window, too, which fixes: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15480 Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Tested-by: Yanko Kaneti <yaneti@declera.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> 25 March 2010, 17:14:13 UTC

3fbf586 fs/partitions/msdos: add support for large disks In order to use disks larger than 2TiB on Windows XP, it is necessary to use 4096-byte logical sectors in an MBR. Although the kernel storage and functions called from msdos.c used "sector_t" internally, msdos.c still used u32 variables, which results in the ability to handle XP-compatible large disks. This patch changes the internal variables to "sector_t". Daniel said: "In the near future, WD will be releasing products that need this patch".

7198f3c mmc: fix incorrect interpretation of card type bits In the extended CSD register the CARD_TYPE is an 8-bit value of which the upper 6 bits were reserved in JEDEC specifications prior to version 4.4. In version 4.4 two of the reserved bits were designated for identifying support for the newly added High-Speed Dual Data Rate. Unfortunately the mmc_read_ext_csd() function required that the reserved bits be zero instead of ignoring them as it should. This patch makes mmc_read_ext_csd() ignore the CARD_TYPE bits that are reserved or not yet supported. It also stops the function jumping to the end as though an error occurred, when it is only warns that the CARD_TYPE bits (that it does interpret) are invalid.

3f8b5ee reiserfs: properly honor read-only devices The reiserfs journal behaves inconsistently when determining whether to allow a mount of a read-only device. This is due to the use of the continue_replay variable to short circuit the journal scanning. If it's set, it's assumed that there are transactions to replay, but there may not be. If it's unset, it's assumed that there aren't any, and that may not be the case either. I've observed two failure cases: 1) Where a clean file system on a read-only device refuses to mount 2) Where a clean file system on a read-only device passes the optimization and then tries writing the journal header to update the latest mount id. The former is easily observable by using a freshly created file system on a read-only loopback device. This patch moves the check into journal_read_transaction, where it can bail out before it's about to replay a transaction. That way it can go through and skip transactions where appropriate, yet still refuse to mount a file system with outstanding transactions.

6cb4aff reiserfs: fix oops while creating privroot with selinux enabled Commit 57fe60df ("reiserfs: add atomic addition of selinux attributes during inode creation") contains a bug that will cause it to oops when mounting a file system that didn't previously contain extended attributes on a system using security.* xattrs. The issue is that while creating the privroot during mount reiserfs_security_init calls reiserfs_xattr_jcreate_nblocks which dereferences the xattr root. The xattr root doesn't exist, so we get an oops.

298359c exit: fix oops in sync_mm_rss In 2.6.34-rc1, removing vhost_net module causes an oops in sync_mm_rss (called from do_exit) when workqueue is destroyed. This does not happen on net-next, or with vhost on top of to 2.6.33. The issue seems to be introduced by 34e55232e59f7b19050267a05ff1226e5cd122a5 ("mm: avoid false sharing of mm_counter) which added sync_mm_rss() that is passed task->mm, and dereferences it without checking. If task is a kernel thread, mm might be NULL. I think this might also happen e.g. with aio. This patch fixes the oops by calling sync_mm_rss when task->mm is set to NULL. I also added BUG_ON to detect any other cases where counters get incremented while mm is NULL. The oops I observed looks like this: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000002a8 IP: [<ffffffff810b436d>] sync_mm_rss+0x33/0x6f PGD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu7/cache/index2/shared_cpu_map CPU 2 Modules linked in: vhost_net(-) tun bridge stp sunrpc ipv6 cpufreq_ondemand acpi_cpufreq freq_table kvm_intel kvm i5000_edac edac_core rtc_cmos bnx2 button i2c_i801 i2c_core rtc_core e1000e sg joydev ide_cd_mod serio_raw pcspkr rtc_lib cdrom virtio_net virtio_blk virtio_pci virtio_ring virtio af_packet e1000 shpchp aacraid uhci_hcd ohci_hcd ehci_hcd [last unloaded: microcode] Pid: 2046, comm: vhost Not tainted 2.6.34-rc1-vhost #25 System Planar/IBM System x3550 -[7978B3G]- RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810b436d>] [<ffffffff810b436d>] sync_mm_rss+0x33/0x6f RSP: 0018:ffff8802379b7e60 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000000008 RBX: ffff88023f2390c0 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: ffff88023f2396b0 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff88023f2390c0 RBP: ffff8802379b7e60 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: ffff88023aecfbc0 R11: 0000000000013240 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffffffff81051a6c R14: ffffe8ffffc0f540 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880001e80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 00000000000002a8 CR3: 000000023af23000 CR4: 00000000000406e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process vhost (pid: 2046, threadinfo ffff8802379b6000, task ffff88023f2390c0) Stack: ffff8802379b7ee0 ffffffff81040687 ffffe8ffffc0f558 ffffffffa00a3e2d <0> 0000000000000000 ffff88023f2390c0 ffffffff81055817 ffff8802379b7e98 <0> ffff8802379b7e98 0000000100000286 ffff8802379b7ee0 ffff88023ad47d78 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81040687>] do_exit+0x147/0x6c4 [<ffffffffa00a3e2d>] ? handle_rx_net+0x0/0x17 [vhost_net] [<ffffffff81055817>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x39 [<ffffffff81051a6c>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0x229 [<ffffffff810553c9>] kthreadd+0x0/0xf2 [<ffffffff810038d4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [<ffffffff81055342>] ? kthread+0x0/0x87 [<ffffffff810038d0>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 Code: 00 8b 87 6c 02 00 00 85 c0 74 14 48 98 f0 48 01 86 a0 02 00 00 c7 87 6c 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 8b 87 70 02 00 00 85 c0 74 14 48 98 <f0> 48 01 86 a8 02 00 00 c7 87 70 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 8b 87 74 RIP [<ffffffff810b436d>] sync_mm_rss+0x33/0x6f RSP <ffff8802379b7e60> CR2: 00000000000002a8 ---[ end trace 41603ba922beddd2 ]--- Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!

The initial problem report was on 2.6.27, but the problem exists in mainline 2.6.34-rc as well. On examining the code, we see that mpol_new returns NULL if default mempolicy was requested.

cb53237 mm/ksm.c is doing an unneeded _notify in write_protect_page. ksm.c's write_protect_page implements a lockless means of verifying a page does not have any users of the page which are not accounted for via other kernel tracking means. It does this by removing the writable pte with TLB flushes, checking the page_count against the total known users, and then using set_pte_at_notify to make it a read-only entry. An unneeded mmu_notifier callout is made in the case where the known users does not match the page_count. In that event, we are inserting the identical pte and there is no need for the set_pte_at_notify, but rather the simpler set_pte_at suffices.

091e635 Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt: correct cpu_relax() documentation cpu_relax() is documented in volatile-considered-harmful.txt to be a memory barrier. However, everyone with the exception of Blackfin and possibly ia64 defines cpu_relax() to be a compiler barrier. Make the documentation reflect the general concensus. Linus sayeth: : I don't think it was ever the intention that it would be seen as anything : but a compiler barrier, although it is obviously implied that it might : well perform some per-architecture actions that have "memory barrier-like" : semantics. : : After all, the whole and only point of the "cpu_relax()" thing is to tell : the CPU that we're busy-looping on some event. : : And that "event" might be (and often is) about reading the same memory : location over and over until it changes to what we want it to be. So it's : quite possible that on various architectures the "cpu_relax()" could be : about making sure that such a tight loop on loads doesn't starve cache : transactions, for example - and as such look a bit like a memory barrier : from a CPU standpoint. : : But it's not meant to have any kind of architectural memory ordering : semantics as far as the kernel is concerned - those must come from other : sources.

fe43d6d firewire: core: align driver match with modalias The driver match strategy was: - Match vendor/model/specifier/version of the unit directory. - If that was a miss, match vendor from the root directory and model/specifier/version of the unit directory. This was inconsistent with how the modalias string was constructed until recently (take vendor/model from root directory and specifier/ version from unit directory). It was also inconsistent with how it is done since the parent commit: - Use vendor/model/specifier/version of the unit directory if possible, - fall back to one or more of vendor/model/specifier/version from the root directory depending on which ones are not present at the unit directory. Fix this inconsistency by sharing the ROM scanner function between modalias printer function and driver match function.

5ae7351 firewire: core: fix Model_ID in modalias The modalias string of devices that represent units on a FireWire node did not show Module_ID entries within unit directories. This was because firewire-core searched only the root directory of the configuration ROM for a Model_ID entry. We now search first the root directory, then the unit directory. IOW honor a unit directory's Model_ID if present, otherwise fall back to the root directory's model ID (if present). Furthermore, apply the same change to Vendor_ID. This had the same issue but it was less apparent because most devices provide Vendor_ID only in the root directory. And finally, also use this strategy for the remaining two IDs in the modalias, Specifier_ID and Version. It does not actually make sense to look for them elsewhere than in the unit directory because they are mandatory there. However, a uniform search order simplifies the implementation and has no adverse affect in practice. Side notes: - The older counterpart of this, nodemgr.c of ieee1394, looked for Vendor_ID first in the root directory, then in the unit directory, and for Model_ID only in the unit directory. - There is a single mainline driver which requires Vendor_ID and Model_ID --- the firedtv driver. This one worked because FireDTVs provide Vendor_ID in the root directory and Model_ID identically in root directory and unit directory. - Apart from firedtv, there are currently no drivers known to me (including userspace drivers) that look at the Vendor_ID or Model_ID of the modalias.

a5ee4eb PCI quirk: RS780/RS880: work around missing MSI initialization AMD says in section 2.5.4 (GFX MSI Enable) of #43291 (AMD 780G Family Register Programming Requirements): The SBIOS must enable internal graphics MSI capability in GCCFG by setting the following: NBCFG.NB_CNTL.STRAP_MSI_ENABLE='1' Quite a few BIOS writers misinterpret this sentence and think that enabling MSI is an optional feature. However, clearing that bit just prevents delivery of MSI messages but does not remove the MSI PCI capabilities registers, and so leaves these devices unusable for any driver that attempts to use MSI. Setting that bit is not possible after the BIOS has locked down the configuration registers, so we have to manually disable MSI for the affected devices. This fixes the codec communication errors in the HDA driver when accessing the HDMI audio device, and allows us to get rid of the overcautious quirk in radeon_irq_kms.c.

Running slabtop show that we were using 4K slabs for the skb->head on x86_64 w/ an allocation size of 1522. It turns out that the dma_head and dma_maps array made skb_shared large enough that we had crossed over the 2k boundary with standard frames and as such we were using 4k blocks of memory for all skbs.
