82d63fc Al Viro 20 August 2008, 21:09:24 UTC cramfs: fix named-pipe handling After commit a97c9bf33f4612e2aed6f000f6b1d268b6814f3c (fix cramfs making duplicate entries in inode cache) in kernel 2.6.14, named-pipe on cramfs does not work properly. It seems the commit make all named-pipe on cramfs share their inode (and named-pipe buffer). Make ..._test() refuse to merge inodes with ->i_ino == 1, take inode setup back to get_cramfs_inode() and make ->drop_inode() evict ones with ->i_ino == 1 immediately.

d847471 Ian Campbell 20 August 2008, 21:09:23 UTC fbdefio: add set_page_dirty handler to deferred IO FB Fixes kernel BUG at lib/radix-tree.c:473. Previously the handler was incidentally provided by tmpfs but this was removed with: commit 14fcc23fdc78e9d32372553ccf21758a9bd56fa1 Author: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Date: Mon Jul 28 15:46:19 2008 -0700 tmpfs: fix kernel BUG in shmem_delete_inode relying on this behaviour was incorrect in any case and the BUG also appeared when the device node was on an ext3 filesystem. v2: override a_ops at open() time rather than mmap() time to minimise races per AKPM's concerns.

b42f931 Anton Vorontsov 20 August 2008, 21:09:21 UTC rtc: rtc-ds1374: fix 'no irq' case handling On a PowerPC board with ds1374 RTC I'm getting this error while RTC tries to probe: rtc-ds1374 0-0068: unable to request IRQ This happens because I2C probing code (drivers/of/of_i2c.c) is specifying IRQ0 for 'no irq' case, which is correct. The driver handles this incorrectly, though. This patch fixes it.

14bac5a Nick Piggin 20 August 2008, 21:09:20 UTC mm: xip/ext2 fix block allocation race XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with create=1. This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page lock to prevent such a situation. This causes ext2 to explode for one reason or another. Serialise those calls for the moment. For common usages today, I suspect get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks. In future as XIP technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require scalability, and rework the locking to suit.

538f8ea Nick Piggin 20 August 2008, 21:09:20 UTC mm: xip fix fault vs sparse page invalidate race XIP has a race between sparse pages being inserted into page tables, and sparse pages being zapped when its time to put a non-sparse page in. What can happen is that a process can be left with a dangling sparse page in a MAP_SHARED mapping, while the rest of the world sees the non-sparse version. Ie. data corruption. Guard these operations with a seqlock, making fault-in-sparse-pages the slowpath, and try-to-unmap-sparse-pages the fastpath.

479db0b Nick Piggin 20 August 2008, 21:09:18 UTC mm: dirty page tracking race fix There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly be accounted for. clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty. page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and write protects the pte if it was dirty. It uses page_check_address to find the pte. That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is not present. Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may be dirty. For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte before setting it to the desired value. There may also be other code in core mm or in arch which do similar things. The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and loss of dirty page accounting accuracy. XIP's __xip_unmap could easily also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can lead to data corruption. Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in page_check_address. It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and try_to_unmap.

481ebd0 Johannes Weiner 20 August 2008, 21:09:15 UTC bootmem: fix aligning of node-relative indexes and offsets Absolute alignment requirements may never be applied to node-relative offsets. Andreas Herrmann spotted this flaw when a bootmem allocation on an unaligned node was itself not aligned because the combination of an unaligned node with an aligned offset into that node is not garuanteed to be aligned itself. This patch introduces two helper functions that align a node-relative index or offset with respect to the node's starting address so that the absolute PFN or virtual address that results from combining the two satisfies the requested alignment. Then all the broken ALIGN()s in alloc_bootmem_core() are replaced by these helpers.

ff9bc51 Pavel Emelyanov 20 August 2008, 21:09:10 UTC binfmt_misc: fix false -ENOEXEC when coupled with other binary handlers In case the binfmt_misc binary handler is registered *before* the e.g. script one (when for example being compiled as a module) the following situation may occur: 1. user launches a script, whose interpreter is a misc binary; 2. the load_misc_binary sets the misc_bang and returns -ENOEVEC, since the binary is a script; 3. the load_script_binary loads one and calls for search_binary_hander to run the interpreter; 4. the load_misc_binary is called again, but refuses to load the binary due to misc_bang bit set. The fix is to move the misc_bang setting lower - prior to the actual call to the search_binary_handler.

For headers which are exported, we should probably choose between asm/arch-v10 and asm/arch-v32 by something that GCC defines -- we can't rely on a generated symlink. And we certainly can't export an arch/ directory which doesn't even exist. And the only thing that we seem to include from the arch/ directory is <asm/arch/ptrace.h> from <asm/ptrace.h> ... and that isn't exported in either arch-v10 or arch-v32 _anyway_.

5f22ca9 Linus Torvalds 20 August 2008, 15:31:19 UTC vfat: fix 'sync' mount deadlock due to BKL->lock_super conversion There was another FAT BKL conversion deadlock reported by Bart Trojanowski due to the BKL being used as a recursive lock by FAT, which was missed because it only triggers with 'sync' (or 'dirsync') mounts. The recursion worked for the BKL, but after the conversion to lock_super (which uses a mutex), it just deadlocks. Thanks to Bart for debugging this and testing the fix.

The lock_super() there had been just an automatic conversion of the kernel lock to the superblock lock, but no locking was actually needed there, since the code in fat_write_inode already protected all relevant accesses with a spinlock (sbi->inode_hash_lock to be exact). The only code inside the BKL (and thus the superblock lock) was accesses tp local variables or calls to functions that have long been SMP-safe (i.e. sb_bread, mark_buffe_dirty and brlese).

This is a user-visible regression which breaks the userspace eHCA support, since the eHCA userspace driver relies on the name attribute to check for valid adapters.

a338406 Stefan Richter 16 August 2008, 11:39:26 UTC ieee1394: sbp2: let nodemgr retry node updates during bus reset series sbp2 was too quick to report .update() to the ieee1394 core as failed. (Logged as "Failed to reconnect to sbp2 device!".) The core would then unbind sbp2 from the device. This is not justified if the .update() failed because another bus reset happened. We check this and tell the ieee1394 that .update() succeeded, and the core will call sbp2's .update() for the new bus reset as well. This improves reconnection/re-login especially on buses with several disks as they may issue bus resets in close succession when they come online. Tested by Damien Benoist.

If dev_deactivate() is trying to quiesce the queue, it is theoretically possible for another cpu to livelock trying to process that queue. This happens because dev_deactivate() grabs the queue spinlock as it checks the queue state, whereas net_tx_action() does a trylock and reschedules the qdisc if it hits the lock. This breaks the livelock by adding a check on __QDISC_STATE_DEACTIVATED to net_tx_action() when the trylock fails. Based upon feedback from Herbert Xu and Jarek Poplawski. Signed-off-by: David S.

This happens because nf_nat_setup_info() - via nf_conntrack_alter_reply() - sets the helper before ctnetlink, which indeed does not check if the conntrack already has a helper as it thinks that it is a brand new conntrack. The fix moves the helper assignation before the set of the status flags. This avoids a bogus assertion in __nf_ct_ext_add (if netfilter assertions are enabled) which checks that the conntrack must not be confirmed.

d28934a Gerrit Renker 19 August 2008, 04:14:20 UTC dccp: Fix panic caused by too early termination of retransmission mechanism Thanks is due to Wei Yongjun for the detailed analysis and description of this bug at http://marc.info/?l=dccp&m=121739364909199&w=2 The problem is that invalid packets received by a client in state REQUEST cause the retransmission timer for the DCCP-Request to be reset. This includes freeing the Request-skb ( in dccp_rcv_request_sent_state_process() ). As a consequence, * the arrival of further packets cause a double-free, triggering a panic(), * the connection then may hang, since further retransmissions are blocked. This patch changes the order of statements so that the retransmission timer is reset, and the pending Request freed, only if a valid Response has arrived (or the number of sysctl-retries has been exhausted). Further changes: ---------------- To be on the safe side, replaced __kfree_skb with kfree_skb so that if due to unexpected circumstances the sk_send_head is NULL the WARN_ON is used instead.

Based upon reports by Denys Fedoryshchenko, and feedback and help from Jarek Poplawski and Herbert Xu. We always either: 1) Never made an external reference to this qdisc. or 2) Did a dev_deactivate() which purged all asynchronous references. So do not lock the qdisc when we call qdisc_destroy(), it's illegal anyways as when we drop the lock this is free'd memory. Signed-off-by: David S.

bce31b6 Alexander Inyukhin 18 August 2008, 19:40:04 UTC cdrom: handle TOC This patch should fix TOC handling for cdroms that can not play audio. It extends commit af744e3294d09d706c4eae26cffaaa68a8d40337 ("cdrom: don't check CDC_PLAY_AUDIO in cdrom_count_tracks()") with a safety check and non-audio ioctls support. Since CDC_PLAY_AUDIO flag was used not only to check ability to play audio but also to ensure that audio_ioctl was not NULL, all TOC-related operations had to use it. As far as I understand, now audio_ioctl is never NULL, so a sanity check during device registration should be sufficient. It was tested on Optiarc AD7203A device, that has no ability to play audio.
