85cc513 [PATCH] x86_64 early numa init fix The tests Alok carried out on Petr's box confirmed that cpu_to_node[BP] is not setup early enough by numa_init_array due to the x86_64 changes in 2.6.14-rc*, and unfortunately set wrongly by the work around code in numa_init_array(). cpu_to_node[0] gets set with 1 early and later gets set properly to 0 during identify_cpu() when all cpus are brought up, but confusing the numa slab in the process. Here is a quick fix for this. The right fix obviously is to have cpu_to_node[bsp] setup early for numa_init_array(). The following patch will fix the problem now, and the code can stay on even when cpu_to_node{BP] gets fixed early correctly. Thanks to Petr for access to his box.

e6a045a [PATCH] x86_64: fix the BP node_to_cpumask Fix the BP node_to_cpumask. 2.6.14-rc* broke the boot cpu bit as the cpu_to_node(0) is now not setup early enough for numa_init_array. cpu_to_node[] is setup much later at srat_detect_node on acpi srat based em64t machines. This seems like a problem on amd machines too, Tested on em64t though. /sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpumap shows up sanely after this patch.

2dd960d [PATCH] utilization of kprobe_mutex is incorrect on x86_64 The up()/down() orders are incorrect in arch/x86_64/kprobes.c file. kprobe_mutext is used to protect the free kprobe instruction slot list. arch_prepare_kprobe applies for a slot from the free list, and arch_remove_kprobe returns a slot to the free list. The incorrect up()/down() orders to operate on kprobe_mutex fail to protect the free list. If 2 threads try to get/return kprobe instruction slot at the same time, the free slot list might be broken, or a free slot might be applied by 2 threads.

abd559b [PATCH] sbp2: fix deadlocks and delays on device removal/rmmod Fixes for deadlocks of the ieee1394 and scsi subsystems and long delays in futile error recovery attempts when SBP-2 devices are removed or drivers are unloaded. - Complete commands quickly with DID_NO_CONNECT if the 1394 node is gone or if the 1394 low-level driver was unloaded. - Skip unnecessary work in the eh_abort_handler and eh_device_reset_handler if the node or 1394 low-level driver is gone. - Let scsi's high-level shut down gracefully when sbp2 is being unloaded or detached from the 1394 unit. A call to scsi_remove_device is added for this purpose, which requires us to store a scsi_device pointer. - scsi_device pointer is obtained from slave_alloc hook and cleared by slave_destroy. This avoids usage of the pointer after the scsi device was deleted e.g. by the user via scsi_mod's sysfs interface.

d38e24e [PATCH] ioc4_serial: Remove bogus error message This change removes a bogus error message from the IOC4 serial driver interrupt handler. This error message is bogus for two reasons. First, it can never occur given that current code takes care to initialize IOC4 in such a way that these "unknown" interrupts could never occur. Second, this code fails to take into account that other drivers can share the IOC4 interrupt mechanism through SA_SHIRQ, and thus this driver is not in-fact "all-knowing". Finally, this error message triggers every time some "unknown" interrupt occurs -- it's not rate limited or repetition limited in any way, thereby effectively denying use of the console device. Given its bogosity in the first place, it's best to just get rid of it entirely.

daa35ed [PATCH] uml: remove empty hostfs_truncate method Calling truncate() on hostfs spits a kernel warning "Something isn't implemented here", but it still works fine. Indeed, hostfs i_op->truncate doesn't do anything. But hostfs_setattr() -> set_attr() correctly detects ATTR_SIZE and calls truncate() on the host. So we should be safe (using ftruncate() may be better, in case the file is unlinked on the host, but we aren't sure to have the file open for writing, and reopening it would cause the same races; plus nobody should expect UML to be so careful). So, the warning is wrong, because the current implementation is working. Al, am I correct, and can the warning be therefore dropped?

897f15f [PATCH] aio: remove unlocked task_list test and resulting race Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick path could delete the task_list item from the wait queue before getting the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path was testing the task_list item outside the lock so that it could catch ki_retry methods that return -EIOCBRETRY *without* putting the iocb on a wait queue and promising to call kick_iocb. This unlocked check could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on the run list. The patch stops the run path from testing task_list by requring that any ki_retry that returns -EIOCBRETRY *must* guarantee that kick_iocb() will be called in the future. aio_p{read,write}, the only in-tree -EIOCBRETRY users, are updated.

998765e [PATCH] aio: lock around kiocbTryKick() Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick patch could set the Kicked bit before acquiring the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path, while holding the ctx_lock, could see this partial kick and mistake it for a kick that was deferred while it was doing work with the run_list NULLed out. It would then race with the kick thread to add the iocb to the run list. This patch moves the kick setting under the ctx_lock so that only one of the kick or run path queues the iocb on the run list, as intended.

1340258 [PATCH] SELinux - fix SCTP socket bug and general IP protocol handling The following patch updates the way SELinux classifies and handles IP based protocols. Currently, IP sockets are classified by SELinux as being either TCP, UDP or 'Raw', the latter being a default for IP socket that is not TCP or UDP. The classification code is out of date and uses only the socket type parameter to socket(2) to determine the class of IP socket. So, any socket created with SOCK_STREAM will be classified by SELinux as TCP, and SOCK_DGRAM as UDP. Also, other socket types such as SOCK_SEQPACKET and SOCK_DCCP are currently ignored by SELinux, which classifies them as generic sockets, which means they don't even get basic IP level checking. This patch changes the SELinux IP socket classification logic, so that only an IPPROTO_IP protocol value passed to socket(2) classify the socket as TCP or UDP. The patch also drops the check for SOCK_RAW and converts it into a default, so that socket types like SOCK_DCCP and SOCK_SEQPACKET are classified as SECCLASS_RAWIP_SOCKET (instead of generic sockets). Note that protocol-specific support for SCTP, DCCP etc. is not addressed here, we're just getting these protocols checked at the IP layer. This fixes a reported problem where SCTP sockets were being recognized as generic SELinux sockets yet still being passed in one case to an IP level check, which then fails for generic sockets. It will also fix bugs where any SOCK_STREAM socket is classified as TCP or any SOCK_DGRAM socket is classified as UDP. This patch also unifies the way IP sockets classes are determined in selinux_socket_bind(), so we use the already calculated value instead of trying to recalculate it.

09e9ec8 [TCP]: Don't over-clamp window in tcp_clamp_window() From: Alexey Kuznetsov <kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru> Handle better the case where the sender sends full sized frames initially, then moves to a mode where it trickles out small amounts of data at a time. This known problem is even mentioned in the comments above tcp_grow_window() in tcp_input.c, specifically: ... * The scheme does not work when sender sends good segments opening * window and then starts to feed us spagetti. But it should work * in common situations. Otherwise, we have to rely on queue collapsing. ... When the sender gives full sized frames, the "struct sk_buff" overhead from each packet is small. So we'll advertize a larger window. If the sender moves to a mode where small segments are sent, this ratio becomes tilted to the other extreme and we start overrunning the socket buffer space. tcp_clamp_window() tries to address this, but it's clamping of tp->window_clamp is a wee bit too aggressive for this particular case.

01ff367 [TCP]: Revert 6b251858d377196b8cea20e65cae60f584a42735 But retain the comment fix. Alexey Kuznetsov has explained the situation as follows: -------------------- I think the fix is incorrect. Look, the RFC function init_cwnd(mss) is not continuous: f.e. for mss=1095 it needs initial window 1095*4, but for mss=1096 it is 1096*3. We do not know exactly what mss sender used for calculations. If we advertised 1096 (and calculate initial window 3*1096), the sender could limit it to some value < 1096 and then it will need window his_mss*4 > 3*1096 to send initial burst. See? So, the honest function for inital rcv_wnd derived from tcp_init_cwnd() is: init_rcv_wnd(mss)= min { init_cwnd(mss1)*mss1 for mss1 <= mss } It is something sort of: if (mss < 1096) return mss*4; if (mss < 1096*2) return 1096*4; return mss*2; (I just scrablled a graph of piece of paper, it is difficult to see or to explain without this) I selected it differently giving more window than it is strictly required. Initial receive window must be large enough to allow sender following to the rfc (or just setting initial cwnd to 2) to send initial burst. But besides that it is arbitrary, so I decided to give slack space of one segment. Actually, the logic was: If mss is low/normal (<=ethernet), set window to receive more than initial burst allowed by rfc under the worst conditions i.e. mss*4. This gives slack space of 1 segment for ethernet frames. For msses slighlty more than ethernet frame, take 3. Try to give slack space of 1 frame again. If mss is huge, force 2*mss. No slack space. Value 1460*3 is really confusing. Minimal one is 1096*2, but besides that it is an arbitrary value. It was meant to be ~4096. 1460*3 is just the magic number from RFC, 1460*3 = 1095*4 is the magic :-), so that I guess hands typed this themselves. -------------------- Signed-off-by: David S.
