| d10689b | Paul Jackson | 23 August 2005, 08:04:27 UTC | [PATCH] cpu_exclusive sched domains on partial nodes temp fix This keeps the kernel/cpuset.c routine update_cpu_domains() from invoking the sched.c routine partition_sched_domains() if the cpuset in question doesn't fall on node boundaries. I have boot tested this on an SN2, and with the help of a couple of ad hoc printk's, determined that it does indeed avoid calling the partition_sched_domains() routine on partial nodes. I did not directly verify that this avoids setting up bogus sched domains or avoids the oops that Hawkes saw. This patch imposes a silent artificial constraint on which cpusets can be used to define dynamic sched domains. This patch should allow proceeding with this new feature in 2.6.13 for the configurations in which it is useful (node alligned sched domains) while avoiding trying to setup sched domains in the less useful cases that can cause the kernel corruption and oops.

This is caused by unconditionally checking the IS and c1 bits from the FPU status word when they are not always relevant. The IS bit tells whether an exception is a stack fault and is only relevant when the exception is IE (invalid operation.) The C1 bit determines whether a stack fault is overflow or underflow and is only relevant when IS and IE are set.

| 4c5640c | David Meybohm | 22 August 2005, 20:11:08 UTC | [PATCH] preempt race in getppid With CONFIG_PREEMPT && !CONFIG_SMP, it's possible for sys_getppid to return a bogus value if the parent's task_struct gets reallocated after current->group_leader->real_parent is read: asmlinkage long sys_getppid(void) { int pid; struct task_struct *me = current; struct task_struct *parent; parent = me->group_leader->real_parent; RACE HERE => for (;;) { pid = parent->tgid; #ifdef CONFIG_SMP { struct task_struct *old = parent; /* * Make sure we read the pid before re-reading the * parent pointer: */ smp_rmb(); parent = me->group_leader->real_parent; if (old != parent) continue; } #endif break; } return pid; } If the process gets preempted at the indicated point, the parent process can go ahead and call exit() and then get wait()'d on to reap its task_struct. When the preempted process gets resumed, it will not do any further checks of the parent pointer on !CONFIG_SMP: it will read the bad pid and return. So, the same algorithm used when SMP is enabled should be used when preempt is enabled, which will recheck ->real_parent in this case.

| 89ebd19 | David S. Miller | 23 August 2005, 17:13:06 UTC | [TCP]: Unconditionally clear TCP_NAGLE_PUSH in skb_entail(). Intention of this bit is to force pushing of the existing send queue when TCP_CORK or TCP_NODELAY state changes via setsockopt(). But it's easy to create a situation where the bit never clears. For example, if the send queue starts empty: 1) set TCP_NODELAY 2) clear TCP_NODELAY 3) set TCP_CORK 4) do small write() The current code will leave TCP_NAGLE_PUSH set after that sequence. Unconditionally clearing the bit when new data is added via skb_entail() solves the problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> | 23 August 2005, 17:13:06 UTC |

| 53b924b | Ralf Baechle | 23 August 2005, 17:11:30 UTC | [NET]: Fix socket bitop damage The socket flag cleanups that went into 2.6.12-rc1 are basically oring the flags of an old socket into the socket just being created. Unfortunately that one was just initialized by sock_init_data(), so already has SOCK_ZAPPED set. As the result zapped sockets are created and all incoming connection will fail due to this bug which again was carefully replicated to at least AX.25, NET/ROM or ROSE. In order to keep the abstraction alive I've introduced sock_copy_flags() to copy the socket flags from one sockets to another and used that instead of the bitwise copy thing. Anyway, the idea here has probably been to copy all flags, so sock_copy_flags() should be the right thing. With this the ham radio protocols are usable again, so I hope this will make it into 2.6.13.

From: Dave Johnson <djohnson+linux-kernel@sw.starentnetworks.com> Found this bug while doing some scaling testing that created 500K inet peers. peer_check_expire() in net/ipv4/inetpeer.c isn't using inet_peer_gc_mintime correctly and will end up creating an expire timer with less than the minimum duration, and even zero/negative if enough active peers are present. If >65K peers, the timer will be less than inet_peer_gc_mintime, and with >70K peers, the timer duration will reach zero and go negative. The timer handler will continue to schedule another zero/negative timer in a loop until peers can be aged. This can continue for at least a few minutes or even longer if the peers remain active due to arriving packets while the loop is occurring. Bug is present in both 2.4 and 2.6.

| cc314ee | Linus Torvalds | 20 August 2005, 01:02:56 UTC | Fix nasty ncpfs symlink handling bug. This bug could cause oopses and page state corruption, because ncpfs used the generic page-cache symlink handlign functions. But those functions only work if the page cache is guaranteed to be "stable", ie a page that was installed when the symlink walk was started has to still be installed in the page cache at the end of the walk. We could have fixed ncpfs to not use the generic helper routines, but it is in many ways much cleaner to instead improve on the symlink walking helper routines so that they don't require that absolute stability. We do this by allowing "follow_link()" to return a error-pointer as a cookie, which is fed back to the cleanup "put_link()" routine. This also simplifies NFS symlink handling.

The tg3 driver mistakenly detects this NIC as having a SerDes PHY and link does not come up as a result. The problem was caused by an incorrectly programmed eeprom that set the NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG_PHY_TYPE_FIBER bit in the NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG location. This patch will override the NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG_PHY_TYPE_FIBER bit if a valid PHY ID is read from the MII registers on older 570x chips where the MII interface is not used on SerDes chips. On newer chips such as the 5780 that use MII for both copper and SerDes, SerDes detection must rely on the eeprom. This patch will make the SerDes detection identical to versions 3.25 and older.
