| d98c7a0 | Hugh Dickins | 14 February 2006, 21:52:59 UTC | [PATCH] compound page: default destructor Somehow I imagined that calling a NULL destructor would free a compound page rather than oopsing. No, we must supply a default destructor, __free_pages_ok using the order noted by prep_compound_page. hugetlb can still replace this as before with its own free_huge_page pointer. The case that needs this is not common: rarely does put_compound_page's put_page_testzero bring the count down to 0. But if get_user_pages is applied to some part of a compound page, without immediate release (e.g. AIO or Infiniband), then it's possible for its put_page to come after the containing vma has been unmapped and the driver done its free_pages. That's just the kind of case compound pages are supposed to be guarding against (but Nick points out, nor did PageReserved handle this right).

| 41d78ba | Hugh Dickins | 14 February 2006, 21:52:58 UTC | [PATCH] compound page: use page[1].lru If a compound page has its own put_page_testzero destructor (the only current example is free_huge_page), that is noted in page[1].mapping of the compound page. But that's rather a poor place to keep it: functions which call set_page_dirty_lock after get_user_pages (e.g. Infiniband's __ib_umem_release) ought to be checking first, otherwise set_page_dirty is liable to crash on what's not the address of a struct address_space. And now I'm about to make that worse: it turns out that every compound page needs a destructor, so we can no longer rely on hugetlb pages going their own special way, to avoid further problems of page->mapping reuse. For example, not many people know that: on 50% of i386 -Os builds, the first tail page of a compound page purports to be PageAnon (when its destructor has an odd address), which surprises page_add_file_rmap. Keep the compound page destructor in page[1].lru.next instead. And to free up the common pairing of mapping and index, also move compound page order from index to lru.prev. Slab reuses page->lru too: but if we ever need slab to use compound pages, it can easily stack its use above this. (akpm: decoded version of the above: the tail pages of a compound page now have ->mapping==NULL, so there's no need for the set_page_dirty[_lock]() caller to check that they're not compund pages before doing the dirty).

From Richard Sandiford <richard@codesourcery.com>: This patch caused a miscompilation of the restore_gp_regs() block in restore_sigcontext(). This was in a 32-bit kernel compiled with GCC CVS head. restore_gp_regs() copies 64-bit user fields into 32-bit variables, and in this combination, the new __get_user_asm_ll32() clobbers too many registers. It says: /* * Get a long long 64 using 32 bit registers. */ { \ __asm__ __volatile__( \ "1: lw %1, (%3) \n" \ "2: lw %D1, 4(%3) \n" \ " move %0, $0 \n" \ "3: .section .fixup,\"ax\" \n" \ "4: li %0, %4 \n" \ " move %1, $0 \n" \ " move %D1, $0 \n" \ " j 3b \n" \ " .previous \n" \ " .section __ex_table,\"a\" \n" \ " " __UA_ADDR " 1b, 4b \n" \ " " __UA_ADDR " 2b, 4b \n" \ " .previous \n" \ : "=r" (__gu_err), "=&r" (val) \ : "0" (0), "r" (addr), "i" (-EFAULT)); \ } and this requires val (%1) to be a 64-bit value. In the case I saw, gcc was using $3 for the 32-bit val, and wasn't expecting $4 to be clobbered. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> | 14 February 2006, 19:13:24 UTC |

| 00de651 | Herbert Xu | 14 February 2006, 00:01:27 UTC | [IPSEC]: Fix strange IPsec freeze. Problem discovered and initial patch by Olaf Kirch: there's a problem with IPsec that has been bugging some of our users for the last couple of kernel revs. Every now and then, IPsec will freeze the machine completely. This is with openswan user land, and with kernels up to and including 2.6.16-rc2. I managed to debug this a little, and what happens is that we end up looping in xfrm_lookup, and never get out. With a bit of debug printks added, I can this happening: ip_route_output_flow calls xfrm_lookup xfrm_find_bundle returns NULL (apparently we're in the middle of negotiating a new SA or something) We therefore call xfrm_tmpl_resolve. This returns EAGAIN We go to sleep, waiting for a policy update. Then we loop back to the top Apparently, the dst_orig that was passed into xfrm_lookup has been dropped from the routing table (obsolete=2) This leads to the endless loop, because we now create a new bundle, check the new bundle and find it's stale (stale_bundle -> xfrm_bundle_ok -> dst_check() return 0) People have been testing with the patch below, which seems to fix the problem partially. They still see connection hangs however (things only clear up when they start a new ping or new ssh). So the patch is obvsiouly not sufficient, and something else seems to go wrong. I'm grateful for any hints you may have... I suggest that we simply bail out always. If the dst decides to die on us later on, the packet will be dropped anyway. So there is no great urgency to retry here. Once we have the proper resolution queueing, we can then do the retry again.

| a65d17c | John Blackwood | 12 February 2006, 22:34:58 UTC | [PATCH] arch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c PTRACE_SINGLESTEP oops We found a problem with x86_64 kernels with preemption enabled, where having multiple tasks doing ptrace singlesteps around the same time will cause the system to 'oops'. The problem seems that a task can get preempted out of the do_debug() processing while it is running on the DEBUG_STACK stack. If another task on that same cpu then enters do_debug() and uses the same per-cpu DEBUG_STACK stack, the previous preempted tasks's stack contents can be corrupted, and the system will oops when the preempted task is context switched back in again. The typical oops looks like the following: Unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffffffffae RIP: <ffffffff805452a1>{thread_return+34} PGD 103027 PUD 102429067 PMD 0 Oops: 0002 [1] PREEMPT SMP CPU 0 Modules linked in: Pid: 3786, comm: ssdd Not tainted 2.6.15.2 #1 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff805452a1>] <ffffffff805452a1>{thread_return+34} RSP: 0018:ffffffff80824058 EFLAGS: 000136c2 RAX: ffff81017e12cea0 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 00000000c0000100 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff8100f7856e20 RDI: ffff81017e12cea0 RBP: 0000000000000046 R08: ffff8100f68a6000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: ffff81017e12cea0 R12: ffff81000c2d53e8 R13: ffff81017f5b3be8 R14: ffff81000c0036e0 R15: 000001056cbfc899 FS: 00002aaaaaad9b00(0000) GS:ffffffff80883800(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffffffffffffffae CR3: 00000000f6fcf000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 Process ssdd (pid: 3786, threadinfo ffff8100f68a6000, task ffff8100f7856e20) Stack: ffffffff808240d8 ffffffff8012a84a ffff8100055f6c00 0000000000000020 0000000000000001 ffff81000c0036e0 ffffffff808240b8 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 Call Trace: <#DB> <ffffffff8012a84a>{try_to_wake_up+985} <ffffffff8012c0d3>{kick_process+87} <ffffffff8013b262>{signal_wake_up+48} <ffffffff8013b5ce>{specific_send_sig_info+179} <ffffffff80546abc>{_spin_unlock_irqrestore+27} <ffffffff8013b67c>{force_sig_info+159} <ffffffff801103a0>{do_debug+289} <ffffffff80110278>{sync_regs+103} <ffffffff8010ed9a>{paranoid_userspace+35} Unable to handle kernel paging request at 00007fffffb7d000 RIP: <ffffffff8010f2e4>{show_trace+465} PGD f6f25067 PUD f6fcc067 PMD f6957067 PTE 0 Oops: 0000 [2] PREEMPT SMP This patch disables preemptions for the task upon entry to do_debug(), before interrupts are reenabled, and then disables preemption before exiting do_debug(), after disabling interrupts.

| 80e4342 | Christoph Lameter | 12 February 2006, 01:55:53 UTC | [PATCH] zone reclaim: do not check references to a page during zone reclaim shrink_list() and refill_inactive() check all ptes pointing to a page for reference bits in order to decide if the page should be put on the active list. This is not necessary for zone_reclaim since we are only interested in removing unmapped pages. Skip the checks in both functions.

| 643a654 | Andrew Morton | 12 February 2006, 01:55:52 UTC | [PATCH] select: fix returned timeval With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's `timeout' argument on return. We were writing back a timeout larger than the original. We _deliberately_ round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks us to. The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which was passed in. The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new timeout value to the old one and was returning that. It should just return the new timeout value. (We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in time.h. But this code open-codes it all). Cc: "David S.

| 33042a9 | Chris McDermott | 12 February 2006, 01:55:50 UTC | [PATCH] x86-64: Fix HPET timer on x460 [description from AK] The IBM Summit 3 chipset doesn't implement the HPET timer replacement option. Since the current Linux code relies on it use a mixed mode with both PIT for the interrupt and HPET counters for the time keeping. That was already implemented, but didn't work properly because it was still using the last interrupt offset in HPET. This resulted in x460 not booting. Fix this up by using the free running HPET counter. Shouldn't affect any other machine because they either use full HPET mode or no HPET at all. TBD needs a similar 32bit fix.

| cff2b76 | Ulrich Drepper | 12 February 2006, 01:55:47 UTC | [PATCH] fstatat64 support The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement fstatat64. This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64 the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what is done for the other stat syscalls as well. This patch might break some other archs (those which define __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed). The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.

| 20b8338 | Roland Dreier | 11 February 2006, 20:22:12 UTC | IPoIB: Yet another fix for send-only joins Even after the last fix, it's still possible for a send-only join to start before the join for the broadcast group has finished. This could cause us to create a multicast group using attributes from the broadcast group that haven't been initialized yet, so we would use garbage for the Q_Key, etc. Fix this by waiting until the broadcast group's attached flag is set before starting send-only joins.
