aa8e4fc Linus Torvalds 13 March 2009, 02:32:51 UTC bitmap: fix end condition in bitmap_find_free_region Guennadi Liakhovetski noticed that the end condition for the loop in bitmap_find_free_region() is wrong, and the "return if error" was also using the wrong conditional that would only trigger if the bitmap was an exact multiple of the allocation size, which is not necessarily the case with dma_alloc_from_coherent(). Such a failure would end up in bitmap_find_free_region() accessing beyond the end of the bitmap.

c12e56e Faisal Latif 12 March 2009, 21:34:59 UTC RDMA/nes: Don't allow userspace QPs to use STag zero STag zero is a special STag that allows consumers to access any bus address without registering memory. The nes driver unfortunately allows STag zero to be used even with QPs created by unprivileged userspace consumers, which means that any process with direct verbs access to the nes device can read and write any memory accessible to the underlying PCI device (usually any memory in the system). Such access is usually given for cluster software such as MPI to use, so this is a local privilege escalation bug on most systems running this driver. The driver was using STag zero to receive the last streaming mode data; to allow STag zero to be disabled for unprivileged QPs, the driver now registers a special MR for this data.

7ef0d73 Nick Piggin 12 March 2009, 21:31:38 UTC fs: new inode i_state corruption fix There was a report of a data corruption http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/14/121. There is a script included to reproduce the problem. During testing, I encountered a number of strange things with ext3, so I tried ext2 to attempt to reduce complexity of the problem. I found that fsstress would quickly hang in wait_on_inode, waiting for I_LOCK to be cleared, even though instrumentation showed that unlock_new_inode had already been called for that inode. This points to memory scribble, or synchronisation problme. i_state of I_NEW inodes is not protected by inode_lock because other processes are not supposed to touch them until I_LOCK (and I_NEW) is cleared. Adding WARN_ON(inode->i_state & I_NEW) to sites where we modify i_state revealed that generic_sync_sb_inodes is picking up new inodes from the inode lists and passing them to __writeback_single_inode without waiting for I_NEW. Subsequently modifying i_state causes corruption. In my case it would look like this: CPU0 CPU1 unlock_new_inode() __sync_single_inode() reg <- inode->i_state reg -> reg & ~(I_LOCK|I_NEW) reg <- inode->i_state reg -> inode->i_state reg -> reg | I_SYNC reg -> inode->i_state Non-atomic RMW on CPU1 overwrites CPU0 store and sets I_LOCK|I_NEW again. Fix for this is rather than wait for I_NEW inodes, just skip over them: inodes concurrently being created are not subject to data integrity operations, and should not significantly contribute to dirty memory either. After this change, I'm unable to reproduce any of the added warnings or hangs after ~1hour of running. Previously, the new warnings would start immediately and hang would happen in under 5 minutes. I'm also testing on ext3 now, and so far no problems there either. I don't know whether this fixes the problem reported above, but it fixes a real problem for me.

1ba869e Michael Spang 12 March 2009, 21:31:34 UTC acer-wmi: fix regression in backlight detection Currently we disable the Acer WMI backlight device if there is no ACPI backlight device. As a result, we end up with no backlight device at all. We should instead disable it if there is an ACPI device, as the other laptop drivers do. This regression was introduced in febf2d9 ("Acer-WMI: fingers off backlight if video.ko is serving this functionality"). Each laptop driver with backlight support got a similar change around febf2d9. The changes to the other drivers look correct; see e.g. a598c82f for a similar but correct change. The regression is also in 2.6.28.

Unfortunately, there will (probably very) soon be a further downgrade from "Maintained" to "Odd Fixes" or "Orphan", unless some funding miracle occurs.

86d6f2b Renzo Davoli 12 March 2009, 21:31:23 UTC UML on UML fixed: it did not start It is currently impossible to run a user-mode linux machine inside another user-mode linux (UML on UML). It breaks after a few instructions. When it tries to check whether SYSEMU is installed (the inner) UML receives an inconsistent result (from the outer UML). This is the output of a broken attempt: $ ./linux mem=256m ubd0=cow Locating the bottom of the address space ... 0x0 Locating the top of the address space ... 0xc0000000 Core dump limits : soft - 0 hard - NONE Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...OK Checking ptrace new tags for syscall emulation...unsupported Checking syscall emulation patch for ptrace...check_sysemu : expected SIGTRAP, got status = 256 $ The problem is the following: PTRACE_SYSCALL/SINGLESTEP is currently managed inside arch_ptrace for ARCH=um. PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP is not captured in arch_ptrace's switch, therefore it is erroneously passed back to ptrace_request (in kernel/ptrace). This simple patch simply forces ptrace to return an error on PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP as it is unsupported on ARCH=um, and fixes the problem.

649426e Alexander Duyck 05 March 2009, 18:57:28 UTC PCI: Add PCI quirk to disable L0s ASPM state for 82575 and 82598 This patch is intended to disable L0s ASPM link state for 82598 (ixgbe) parts due to the fact that it is possible to corrupt TX data when coming back out of L0s on some systems. The workaround had been added for 82575 (igb) previously, but did not use the ASPM api. This quirk uses the ASPM api to prevent the ASPM subsystem from re-enabling the L0s state. Instead of adding the fix in igb to the ixgbe driver as well it was decided to move it into a pci quirk. It is necessary to move the fix out of the driver and into a pci quirk in order to prevent the issue from occuring prior to driver load to handle the possibility of the device being passed to a VM via direct assignment.

363911d Phillip Lougher 12 March 2009, 03:23:48 UTC Squashfs: Valid filesystems are flagged as bad by the corrupted fs patch The corrupted filesystem patch added a check against zlib trying to output too much data in the presence of data corruption. This check triggered if zlib_inflate asked to be called again (Z_OK) with avail_out == 0 and no more output buffers available. This check proves to be rather dumb, as it incorrectly catches the case where zlib has generated all the output, but there are still input bytes to be processed. This patch does a number of things. It removes the original check and replaces it with code to not move to the next output buffer if there are no more output buffers available, relying on zlib to error if it wants an extra output buffer in the case of data corruption. It also replaces the Z_NO_FLUSH flag with the more correct Z_SYNC_FLUSH flag, and makes the error messages more understandable to non-technical users.

Here're some VR5500A spec notes: * All execution hazards are handled in hardware. * Once VR5500A stops the operation of the pipeline by WAIT instruction, it could return from the standby mode only when either a reset, NMI request, or all enabled interrupts is/are detected. In other words, if interrupts are disabled by Status.IE=0, it keeps in standby mode even when interrupts are internally asserted. Notes on WAIT: The operation of the processor is undefined if WAIT insn is in the branch delay slot. The operation is also undefined if WAIT insn is executed when Status.EXL and Status.ERL are set to 1. * VR5500A core only implements the Load prefetch. With these changes, it boots fine.

d801cec Benjamin Herrenschmidt 10 March 2009, 23:45:17 UTC radeonfb/aty128fb: Disable broken early resume hook for PowerBooks radeonfb and aty128fb have a special hook called by the PowerMac platform code very very early on resume from sleep to bring the screen back. This is useful for debugging wakup problems, but unfortunately, this also became a source of problems of its own. The hook is called extremely early, with interrupts still off, and the code path involved with that code nowadays rely on things like taking mutexes, GFP_KERNEL allocations, etc... In addition, the driver now relies on the PCI core to restore the standard config space before calling resume which doesn't happen with this early code path. I'm keeping the code in but commented out along with a fixup call to pci_restore_state(). The reason is that I still want to make it easy to re-enable temporarily to track wake up problems, and it's possible that I can revive it at some stage if we make sleeping things save to call in early resume using a system state. In the meantime, this should fix several reported regressions. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> 10 March 2009, 23:48:56 UTC

However, they also both call tty_flip_buffer_push() in conexts where it's illegal to do so since some recent tty changes (or at least it may have been illegal always but it nows blows) when low_latency is set (ie, hard interrupt or with spinlock held and irqs disabled). This removes the setting for now to get them back to working condition, we'll have to address the races described in the comments separately if they are still an issue (some of this might have been fixed already).

Previously i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params) was using the global 'yres' symbol previously defined at i810_main.c:145 as a module parameter value holder (i810_main.c:2174). If i810fb is compiled-in or if this param doesn't get a default value, this direct usage leads to a divide-by-zero at i810_main.c:1005 (i810_check_params). The patch simply replace the 'yres' global, perhaps undefined symbol usage by a given parameter structure lookup. This problem occurs with directfb, mplayer -vo fbdev, SDL library.

McKenney 10 March 2009, 19:55:52 UTC idr: make idr_remove_all() do removal -before- free_layer() Fix a problem in the IDR system, where an idr_remove_all() hands a data element to call_rcu() (via free_layer()) before making that data element inaccessible to new readers. This is very bad, and results in readers still having a reference to this data element at the end of the grace period. Tests on large machines that concurrently map and unmap user-space memory within the same multithreaded process result in crashes within about five minutes. Applying this patch increases the kernel's longevity to the three-to-eight-hour range. There appear to be other similar problems in idr_get_empty_slot() and sub_remove(), but I fixed the easy one in idr_remove_all() first. It is therefore no surprise that failures still occur.

Fix by moving it to just after all of the EMBEDDED menu symbols. Also, ANON_INODES has a similar problem, so move it to just above the EMBEDDED menu items since it is used in the EMBEDDED menu.

4750498 Roel Kluin 10 March 2009, 19:55:45 UTC mm: get_nid_for_pfn() returns int get_nid_for_pfn() returns int Presumably the (nid < 0) case has never happened. We do know that it is happening on one system while creating a symlink for a memory section so it should also happen on the same system if unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() were called to remove the same symlink. The test was actually added in response to a problem with an earlier version reported by Yasunori Goto where one or more of the leading pages of a memory section on the 2nd node of one of his systems was uninitialized because I believe they coincided with a memory hole. That earlier version did not ignore uninitialized pages and determined the nid by considering only the 1st page of each memory section. This caused the symlink to the 1st memory section on the 2nd node to be incorrectly created in /sys/devices/system/node/node0 instead of /sys/devices/system/node/node1. The problem was fixed by adding the test to skip over uninitialized pages. I suspect we have not seen any reports of the non-removal of a symlink due to the incorrect declaration of the nid variable in unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes() because - systems where a memory section could have an uninitialized range of leading pages are probably rare. - memory remove is probably not done very frequently on the systems that are capable of demonstrating the problem. - lingering symlink(s) that should have been removed may have simply gone unnoticed.

Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a regression in bug 12826. Course of action: - Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically. If it isn't, we need to fix that. - mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated - try again with the removal in six months. It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

So in acct_update_integrals we may end up with the following scenario: Between reading tsk->stime/tsk->utime and tsk->acct_timexpd an interrupt happens which updates accouting values. This causes acct_timexpd to be greater than the former stime + utime. The subsequent calculation of dtime = cputime_sub(time, tsk->acct_timexpd); will be negative and the division performed by cputime_to_jiffies(dtime) will generate an exception since the result won't fit into a 32 bit register. In order to fix this just always disable interrupts while accessing any of the accounting values.
