e681c04 ext4: Add EXT4_IOC_TRIM ioctl to handle batched discard Filesystem independent ioctl was rejected as not common enough to be in core vfs ioctl. Since we still need to access to this functionality this commit adds ext4 specific ioctl EXT4_IOC_TRIM to dispatch ext4_trim_fs(). It takes fstrim_range structure as an argument. fstrim_range is definec in the include/linux/fs.h and its definition is as follows. struct fstrim_range { __u64 start; __u64 len; __u64 minlen; } start - first Byte to trim len - number of Bytes to trim from start minlen - minimum extent length to trim, free extents shorter than this number of Bytes will be ignored. This will be rounded up to fs block size. After the FITRIM is done, the number of actually discarded Bytes is stored in fstrim_range.len to give the user better insight on how much storage space has been really released for wear-leveling.

93bb41f fs: Do not dispatch FITRIM through separate super_operation There was concern that FITRIM ioctl is not common enough to be included in core vfs ioctl, as Christoph Hellwig pointed out there's no real point in dispatching this out to a separate vector instead of just through ->ioctl. So this commit removes ioctl_fstrim() from vfs ioctl and trim_fs from super_operation structure.

33e0d57 Revert "kernel: make /proc/kallsyms mode 400 to reduce ease of attacking" This reverts commit 59365d136d205cc20fe666ca7f89b1c5001b0d5a. It turns out that this can break certain existing user land setups. Quoth Sarah Sharp: "On Wednesday, I updated my branch to commit 460781b from linus' tree, and my box would not boot. klogd segfaulted, which stalled the whole system. At first I thought it actually hung the box, but it continued booting after 5 minutes, and I was able to log in. It dropped back to the text console instead of the graphical bootup display for that period of time. dmesg surprisingly still works. I've bisected the problem down to this commit (commit 59365d136d205cc20fe666ca7f89b1c5001b0d5a) The box is running klogd 1.5.5ubuntu3 (from Jaunty). Yes, I know that's old. I read the bit in the commit about changing the permissions of kallsyms after boot, but if I can't boot that doesn't help." So let's just keep the old default, and encourage distributions to do the "chmod -r /proc/kallsyms" in their bootup scripts. This is not worth a kernel option to change default behavior, since it's so easily done in user space.

5a9ae68 ext4: ext4_fill_super shouldn't return 0 on corruption At the start of ext4_fill_super, ret is set to -EINVAL, and any failure path out of that function returns ret. However, the generic_check_addressable clause sets ret = 0 (if it passes), which means that a subsequent failure (e.g. a group checksum error) returns 0 even though the mount should fail. This causes vfs_kern_mount in turn to think that the mount succeeded, leading to an oops. A simple fix is to avoid using ret for the generic_check_addressable check, which was last changed in commit 30ca22c70e3ef0a96ff84de69cd7e8561b416cb2. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

e7dbb2f drm/i915: Take advantage of auto-polling CRT hotplug detection on PCH hardware Both IBX and CPT have an automatic hotplug detection mode which appears to work reliably enough that we can dispense with the manual force hotplug trigger stuff. This means that hotplug detection is as simple as reading the current hotplug register values. The first time the hotplug detection is activated, the code synchronously waits for a hotplug sequence in case the hardware hasn't bothered to do a detection cycle since being initialized.

51311d0 drm/i915: Do not hold mutex when faulting in user addresses Linus Torvalds found that it was rather trivial to trigger a system freeze: In fact, with lockdep, I don't even need to do the sysrq-d thing: it shows the bug as it happens. It's the X server taking the same lock recursively. Here's the problem: ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.37-rc2-00012-gbdbd01a #7 --------------------------------------------- Xorg/2816 is trying to acquire lock: (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c626c>] i915_gem_fault+0x50/0x17e but task is already holding lock: (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c403b>] i915_mutex_lock_interruptible+0x28/0x4a other info that might help us debug this: 2 locks held by Xorg/2816: #0: (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c403b>] i915_mutex_lock_interruptible+0x28/0x4a #1: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff81022d4f>] page_fault+0x156/0x37b This recursion was introduced by rearranging the locking to avoid the double locking on the fast path (4f27b5d and fbd5a26d) and the introduction of the prefault to encourage the fast paths (b5e4f2b). In order to undo the problem, we rearrange the code to perform the access validation upfront, attempt to prefault and then fight for control of the mutex. the best case scenario where the mutex is uncontended the prefaulting is not wasted.

The change wasn't noticed at compile time since hashpage_preload() used a void* as the parameter to subpage_protection(). This is obviously wrong and can trigger the following crash when CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT are enabled.

234a71a powerpc: Set CONFIG_32BIT on ppc32 commit ffe8018c3424892c9590048fc36caa6c3e0c8a76 of the -mm tree fixes the initramfs size calculation for e.g. s390 but breaks it for 32bit architectures which do not define CONFIG_32BIT. This patch fix the problem for PPC32 which will elsewise end up with a __initramfs_size of 0.

01cf6fe powerpc/pseries: Don't override CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES_DEBUG EEH and pci_dlpar #undef DEBUG, but I think they were added before the ability to control this from Kconfig. It's really annoying to only get some of the debug messages from these files. Leave the lpar.c #undef alone as it produces so much output as to make the kernel unusable. Update the Kconfig text to indicate this particular quirk :) Signed-off-by: Nishanth Aravamudan <nacc@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> 18 November 2010, 03:54:22 UTC

08da119 ext4: fix setting random pages PageUptodate ext4_end_bio calls put_page and kmem_cache_free before calling SetPageUpdate(). This can result in setting the PageUptodate bit on random pages and causes the following BUG: BUG: Bad page state in process rm pfn:52e54 page:ffffea0001222260 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping: (null) index:0x0 arch kernel: page flags: 0x4000000000000008(uptodate) Fix the problem by moving put_io_page() after the SetPageUpdate() call.
