9d66586 Eric W. Biederman 16 June 2007, 17:16:16 UTC shm: fix the filename of hugetlb sysv shared memory Some user space tools need to identify SYSV shared memory when examining /proc/<pid>/maps. To do so they look for a block device with major zero, a dentry named SYSV<sysv key>, and having the minor of the internal sysv shared memory kernel mount. To help these tools and to make it easier for people just browsing /proc/<pid>/maps this patch modifies hugetlb sysv shared memory to use the SYSV<key> dentry naming convention. User space tools will still have to be aware that hugetlb sysv shared memory lives on a different internal kernel mount and so has a different block device minor number from the rest of sysv shared memory.

2274192 Adam Litke 16 June 2007, 17:16:15 UTC hugetlb: fix get_policy for stacked shared memory files Here's another breakage as a result of shared memory stacked files :( The NUMA policy for a VMA is determined by checking the following (in the order given): 1) vma->vm_ops->get_policy() (if defined) 2) vma->vm_policy (if defined) 3) task->mempolicy (if defined) 4) Fall back to default_policy By switching to stacked files for shared memory, get_policy() is now always set to shm_get_policy which is a wrapper function. This causes us to stop at step 1, which yields NULL for hugetlb instead of task->mempolicy which was the previous (and correct) result. This patch modifies the shm_get_policy() wrapper to maintain steps 1-3 for the wrapped vm_ops. (akpm: the refcounting of mempolicies is busted and this patch does nothing to improve it) Signed-off-by: Adam Litke <agl@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: William Irwin <bill.irwin@oracle.com> Cc: dean gaudet <dean@arctic.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 16 June 2007, 20:16:16 UTC
74584ae Jan Kara 16 June 2007, 17:16:14 UTC udf: fix possible leakage of blocks We have to take care that when we call udf_discard_prealloc() from udf_clear_inode() we have to write inode ourselves afterwards (otherwise, some changes might be lost leading to leakage of blocks, use of free blocks or improperly aligned extents). Also udf_discard_prealloc() does two different things - it removes preallocated blocks and truncates the last extent to exactly match i_size. We move the latter functionality to udf_truncate_tail_extent(), call udf_discard_prealloc() when last reference to a file is dropped and call udf_truncate_tail_extent() when inode is being removed from inode cache (udf_clear_inode() call). We cannot call udf_truncate_tail_extent() earlier as subsequent open+write would find the last block of the file mapped and happily write to the end of it, although the last extent says it's shorter.

4b356be Christoph Lameter 16 June 2007, 17:16:13 UTC SLUB: minimum alignment fixes If ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to a value greater than 8 (SLUBs smallest kmalloc cache) then SLUB may generate duplicate slabs in sysfs (yes again) because the object size is padded to reach ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN. Thus the size of the small slabs is all the same. No arch sets ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN larger than 8 though except mips which for some reason wants a 128 byte alignment. This patch increases the size of the smallest cache if ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is greater than 8. In that case more and more of the smallest caches are disabled. If we do that then the count of the active general caches that is displayed on boot is not correct anymore since we may skip elements of the kmalloc array. So count them separately. This approach was tested by Havard yesterday.

8dab524 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 16 June 2007, 17:16:12 UTC Rework ptep_set_access_flags and fix sun4c Some changes done a while ago to avoid pounding on ptep_set_access_flags and update_mmu_cache in some race situations break sun4c which requires update_mmu_cache() to always be called on minor faults. This patch reworks ptep_set_access_flags() semantics, implementations and callers so that it's now responsible for returning whether an update is necessary or not (basically whether the PTE actually changed). This allow fixing the sparc implementation to always return 1 on sun4c.

c539ab7 Jeff Dike 16 June 2007, 17:16:09 UTC uml: remove PAGE_SIZE from libc code Distros seem to be removing PAGE_SIZE from asm/page.h. So, the libc side of UML should stop using it. I replace it with UM_KERN_PAGE_SIZE, which is defined to be the same as PAGE_SIZE on the kernel side of the house. I could also use getpagesize(), but it's more important that UML have the same value of PAGE_SIZE everywhere. It's conceivable that it could be built with a larger PAGE_SIZE, and use of getpagesize() would break that badly. PAGE_MASK got the same treatment, as it is closely tied to PAGE_SIZE.

f5a9c77 David Brownell 16 June 2007, 17:16:08 UTC spi doc updates Update two points in the SPI interface documentation: - Update description of the "chip stays selected after message ends" mode. In some cases it's required for correctness; it isn't just a performance tweak. (Yes: to use this mode on mult-device busses, another programming interface will be needed. One draft has been circulated already.) - Clarify spi_setup(), highlighting that callers must ensure that no requests are queued (can't change configuration except between I/Os), and that the device must be deselected when this returns (which is a key part of why it's called during device init).

3e903e7 Paul Jackson 16 June 2007, 17:16:01 UTC cpuset: zero malloc - fix for old cpusets The cpuset code to present a list of tasks using a cpuset to user space could write to an array that it had kmalloc'd, after a kmalloc request of zero size. The problem was that the code didn't check for writes past the allocated end of the array until -after- the first write. This is a race condition that is likely rare -- it would only show up if a cpuset went from being empty to having a task in it, during the brief time between the allocation and the first write. Prior to roughly 2.6.22 kernels, this was also a benign problem, because a zero kmalloc returned a few usable bytes anyway, and no harm was done with the bogus write. With the 2.6.22 kernel changes to make issue a warning if code tries to write to the location returned from a zero size allocation, this problem is no longer benign. This cpuset code would occassionally trigger that warning. The fix is trivial -- check before storing into the array, not after, whether the array is big enough to hold the store. Cc: "Eric W.

f4d2781 David Woodhouse 16 June 2007, 09:48:19 UTC fix radeon setparam on 32/64 systems, harder. Commit 9b01bd5b284bbf519b726b39f1352023cb5e9e69 introduced a compat_ioctl handler for RADEON_SETPARAM, the sole purpose of which was to handle the fact that on i386, alignof(uint64_t)==4. Unfortunately, this handler was installed for _all_ 64-bit architectures, instead of only x86_64 and ia64. And thus it breaks 32-bit compatibility on every other arch, where 64-bit integers are aligned to 8 bytes in 32-bit mode just the same as in 64-bit mode. Arnd has a cunning plan to use 'compat_u64' with appropriate alignment attributes according to the 32-bit ABI, but for now let's just make the compat_radeon_cp_setparam routine entirely disappear on 64-bit machines whose 32-bit compat support isn't for i386. It would be a no-op with compat_u64 anyway.

bc90ba0 Tejun Heo 15 June 2007, 11:24:28 UTC block: always requeue !fs requests at the front SCSI marks internal commands with REQ_PREEMPT and push it at the front of the request queue using blk_execute_rq(). When entering suspended or frozen state, SCSI devices are quiesced using scsi_device_quiesce(). In quiesced state, only REQ_PREEMPT requests are processed. This is how SCSI blocks other requests out while suspending and resuming. As all internal commands are pushed at the front of the queue, this usually works. Unfortunately, this interacts badly with ordered requeueing. To preserve request order on requeueing (due to busy device, active EH or other failures), requests are sorted according to ordered sequence on requeue if IO barrier is in progress. The following sequence deadlocks. 1. IO barrier sequence issues. 2. Suspend requested. Queue is quiesced with part or all of IO barrier sequence at the front. 3. During suspending or resuming, SCSI issues internal command which gets deferred and requeued for some reason. As the command is issued after the IO barrier in #1, ordered requeueing code puts the request after IO barrier sequence. 4. The device is ready to process requests again but still is in quiesced state and the first request of the queue isn't REQ_PREEMPT, so command processing is deadlocked - suspending/resuming waits for the issued request to complete while the request can't be processed till device is put back into running state by resuming. This can be fixed by always putting !fs requests at the front when requeueing.

Inaccurate timestamps could be fed to them without providing any way for them to identify such cases. Previously RTT sampler was called only if FLAG_RETRANS_DATA_ACKED was not set filtering inaccurate timestamps nicely.

74235a2 Herbert Xu 14 June 2007, 20:02:55 UTC [IPV6] addrconf: Fix IPv6 on tuntap tunnels The recent patch that added ipv6_hwtype is broken on tuntap tunnels. Indeed, it's broken on any device that does not pass the ipv6_hwtype test. The reason is that the original test only applies to autoconfiguration, not IPv6 support. IPv6 support is allowed on any device. In fact, even with the ipv6_hwtype patch applied you can still add IPv6 addresses to any interface that doesn't pass thw ipv6_hwtype test provided that they have a sufficiently large MTU. This is a serious problem because come deregistration time these devices won't be cleaned up properly. I've gone back and looked at the rationale for the patch. It appears that the real problem is that we were creating IPv6 devices even if the MTU was too small. So here's a patch which fixes that and reverts the ipv6_hwtype stuff.

af15cc7 Ilpo Järvinen 12 June 2007, 23:16:44 UTC [TCP]: Fix left_out setting during FRTO Without FRTO, the tcp_try_to_open is never called with lost_out > 0 (see tcp_time_to_recover). However, when FRTO is enabled, the !tp->lost condition is not used until end of FRTO because that way TCP avoids premature entry to fast recovery during FRTO.

dd14cbc Tejun Heo 11 June 2007, 05:04:01 UTC sysfs: fix race condition around sd->s_dentry, take#2 Allowing attribute and symlink dentries to be reclaimed means sd->s_dentry can change dynamically. However, updates to the field are unsynchronized leading to race conditions. This patch adds sysfs_lock and use it to synchronize updates to sd->s_dentry. Due to the locking around ->d_iput, the check in sysfs_drop_dentry() is complex. sysfs_lock only protect sd->s_dentry pointer itself. The validity of the dentry is protected by dcache_lock, so whether dentry is alive or not can only be tested while holding both locks. This is minimal backport of sysfs_drop_dentry() rewrite in devel branch. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> 12 June 2007, 23:08:47 UTC

dc35125 Eric Sandeen 11 June 2007, 05:02:45 UTC sysfs: store sysfs inode nrs in s_ino to avoid readdir oopses Backport of ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.22-rc1/2.6.22-rc1-mm1/broken-out/gregkh-driver-sysfs-allocate-inode-number-using-ida.patch For regular files in sysfs, sysfs_readdir wants to traverse sysfs_dirent->s_dentry->d_inode->i_ino to get to the inode number. But, the dentry can be reclaimed under memory pressure, and there is no synchronization with readdir. This patch follows Tejun's scheme of allocating and storing an inode number in the new s_ino member of a sysfs_dirent, when dirents are created, and retrieving it from there for readdir, so that the pointer chain doesn't have to be traversed. Tejun's upstream patch uses a new-ish "ida" allocator which brings along some extra complexity; this -stable patch has a brain-dead incrementing counter which does not guarantee uniqueness, but because sysfs doesn't hash inodes as iunique expects, uniqueness wasn't guaranteed today anyway.

ca93ca4 Jeff Garzik 12 June 2007, 22:52:31 UTC Revert "[netdrvr e100] experiment with doing RX in a similar manner to eepro100" This reverts commit d52df4a35af569071fda3f4eb08e47cc7023f094. This patch attempted to fix e100 for non-cache coherent memory architectures by using the cb style code that eepro100 had and using the EL and s bits from the RFD list. Unfortunately the hardware doesn't work exactly like this and therefore this patch actually breaks e100. Reverting the change brings it back to the previously known good state for 2.6.22. The pending rewrite in progress to this code can then be safely merged later.

82fde74 Luis Carlos 07 June 2007, 20:40:59 UTC [PATCH] libertas: convert libertas_mpp into anycast_mask With firmware 5.220.11.p5, this allows to specify the anycast addresses the device will listen to. The anycast address range is C0:27:C0:27:C0:XX where XX goes from 00 to 1F (or 0 to 31 in dec). The value to write on anycast_mask will specify which addresses the device listens to. Bits in a 32 bit int are numbered from 0 (least significative bit) to 31. A specific address ending in YY will be listened to if bit YY in the value is set to one. Examples: 0x00000000 : do not listen to any anycast address 0xFFFFFFFF : listen to every anycast address from :00 to :1F 0x00000013 : listen to anycast addresses :00, :01 and :04 Signed-off-by: Luis Carlos Cobo <luisca@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

462b529 Grant Grundler 10 June 2007, 22:31:41 UTC [PARISC] remove global_ack_eiem Kudos to Thibaut Varene for spotting the (mis)use of appropriately named global_ack_eiem. This took a long time to figure out and both insight from myself, Kyle McMartin, and James Bottomley were required to narrow down which bit of code could have this race condition. The symptom was interrupts stopped getting delivered while some workload was generating IO interrupts on two different CPUs. One of the interrupt sources would get masked off and stay unmasked. Problem was global_ack_eiem was accessed with read/modified/write sequence and not protected by a spinlock. PA-RISC doesn't need a global ack flag though. External Interrupts are _always_ delivered to a single CPU (except for "global broadcast interrupt" which AFAIK currently is not used.) So we don't have to worry about any given IRQ vector getting delivered to more than one CPU. Tested on a500 and rp34xx boxen. rsync to/from gsyprf11 (a500) would lock up the box since NIC (tg3) interrupt and SCSI (sym2) were on "opposite" CPUs (2 CPU system). Put them on the same CPU or apply this patch and 10GB of data would rsync completely.
