241ceee Oleg Nesterov 24 December 2006, 20:30:44 UTC [PATCH] restore ->pdeath_signal behaviour Commit b2b2cbc4b2a2f389442549399a993a8306420baf introduced a user- visible change: ->pdeath_signal is sent only when the entire thread group exits. While this change is imho good, it may break things. So restore the old behaviour for now. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> To: Albert Cahalan <acahalan@gmail.com> Cc: Eric W.

The fix is to set up the MMU state in two phases: kvm_mmu_create() and kvm_mmu_setup().

09db28b Yoshimi Ichiyanagi 30 December 2006, 00:49:41 UTC [PATCH] KVM: Initialize kvm_arch_ops on unload The latest version of kvm doesn't initialize kvm_arch_ops in kvm_init(), which causes an error with the following sequence. 1. Load the supported arch's module. 2. Load the unsupported arch's module.$B!!(B(loading error) 3. Unload the unsupported arch's module. You'll get the following error message after step 3. "BUG: unable to handle to handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx" The problem here is that the unsupported arch's module overwrites kvm_arch_ops of the supported arch's module at step 2. This patch initializes kvm_arch_ops upon loading architecture specific kvm module, and prevents overwriting kvm_arch_ops when kvm_arch_ops is already set correctly.

4b1badf David Brownell 30 December 2006, 00:48:39 UTC [PATCH] SPI: define null tx_buf to mean "shift out zeroes" Some issues were recently turned up with the current specification of what it means for spi_transfer.tx_buf to be null, as part of transfers which are (from the SPI protocol driver perspective) pure reads. Specifically, that it seems better to change the TX behaviour there from "undefined" to "will shift zeroes". This lets protocol drivers (like the ads7846 driver) depend on that behavior. It's what most controller drivers in the tree are already doing (with one exception and one case of driver wanting-to-oops), it's what Microwire hardware will necessarily be doing, and it removes an issue whereby certain security audits would need to define such a value anyway as part of removing covert channels. This patch changes the specification to require shifting zeroes, and updates all currently merged SPI controller drivers to do so.

9414232 Ingo Molnar 30 December 2006, 00:48:13 UTC [PATCH] sched: fix cond_resched_softirq() offset Remove the __resched_legal() check: it is conceptually broken. The biggest problem it had is that it can mask buggy cond_resched() calls. A cond_resched() call is only legal if we are not in an atomic context, with two narrow exceptions: - if the system is booting - a reacquire_kernel_lock() down() done while PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set But __resched_legal() hid this and just silently returned whenever these primitives were called from invalid contexts. (Same goes for cond_resched_locked() and cond_resched_softirq()). Furthermore, the __legal_resched(0) call was buggy in that it caused unnecessarily long softirq latencies via cond_resched_softirq(). (which is only called from softirq-off sections, hence the code did nothing.) The fix is to resurrect the efficiency of the might_sleep checks and to only allow the narrow exceptions.

1ebb110 Zach Brown 30 December 2006, 00:47:02 UTC [PATCH] Fix lock inversion aio_kick_handler() lockdep found a AB BC CA lock inversion in retry-based AIO: 1) The task struct's alloc_lock (A) is acquired in process context with interrupts enabled. An interrupt might arrive and call wake_up() which grabs the wait queue's q->lock (B). 2) When performing retry-based AIO the AIO core registers aio_wake_function() as the wake funtion for iocb->ki_wait. It is called with the wait queue's q->lock (B) held and then tries to add the iocb to the run list after acquiring the ctx_lock (C). 3) aio_kick_handler() holds the ctx_lock (C) while acquiring the alloc_lock (A) via lock_task() and unuse_mm(). Lockdep emits a warning saying that we're trying to connect the irq-safe q->lock to the irq-unsafe alloc_lock via ctx_lock. This fixes the inversion by calling unuse_mm() in the AIO kick handing path after we've released the ctx_lock. As Ben LaHaise pointed out __put_ioctx could set ctx->mm to NULL, so we must only access ctx->mm while we have the lock.

7658cc2 Linus Torvalds 29 December 2006, 18:00:58 UTC VM: Fix nasty and subtle race in shared mmap'ed page writeback The VM layer (on the face of it, fairly reasonably) expected that when it does a ->writepage() call to the filesystem, it would write out the full page at that point in time. Especially since it had earlier marked the whole page dirty with "set_page_dirty()". But that isn't actually the case: ->writepage() does not actually write a page, it writes the parts of the page that have been explicitly marked dirty before, *and* that had not got written out for other reasons since the last time we told it they were dirty. That last caveat is the important one. Which _most_ of the time ends up being the whole page (since we had called "set_page_dirty()" on the page earlier), but if the filesystem had done any dirty flushing of its own (for example, to honor some internal write ordering guarantees), it might end up doing only a partial page IO (or none at all) when ->writepage() is actually called. That is the correct thing in general (since we actually often _want_ only the known-dirty parts of the page to be written out), but the shared dirty page handling had implicitly forgotten about these details, and had a number of cases where it was doing just the "->writepage()" part, without telling the low-level filesystem that the whole page might have been re-dirtied as part of being mapped writably into user space. Since most of the time the FS did actually write out the full page, we didn't notice this for a loong time, and this needed some really odd patterns to trigger. But it caused occasional corruption with rtorrent and with the Debian "apt" database, because both use shared mmaps to update the end result. This fixes it. Finally. After way too much hair-pulling.

b331def Hans Verkuil 18 December 2006, 16:18:28 UTC V4L/DVB (4982): Fix broken audio mode handling for line-in in msp3400. The wrong matrix was used when an external input was selected instead of the tuner input. The rxsubchans field was also not initialized to STEREO for an external input. And finally the msp34xxg_detect_stereo() should not try to detect stereo for an external input, that code is for the tuner input only. Together these bugs made it hit 'n miss whether you ever got stereo out of the msp3400 for an external input.

However, driver were programming wrong values for PAL/60, PAL/Nc and NTSC 4.43. This patch do the proper calculation. It also calculates htotal, hdelay and hactive constants, according with the sampling rate. It is tested with PAL/60 by Piotr Maksymuk and Olivier. Also tested with the already-supported standards. Test is still required for PAL/Nc. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> 27 December 2006, 16:19:26 UTC
