388c8c1 James Bottomley 03 August 2008, 18:02:12 UTC PCI: add routines for debugging and handling lost interrupts We're getting a lot of storage drivers blamed for interrupt misrouting issues. This patch provides a standard way of reporting the problem ... and, if possible, correcting it.

18b341b Taku Izumi 23 October 2008, 02:47:32 UTC PCI hotplug: pciehp: message refinement This patch refines messages in pciehp module. The main changes are as follows: - remove the trailing "." - remove __func__ as much as possible - capitalize the first letter of messages - show PCI device address including its domain Signed-off-by: Taku Izumi <izumi.taku@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> 23 October 2008, 21:47:39 UTC
8113587 Zhao, Yu 23 October 2008, 05:15:39 UTC PCI: fix ARI code to be compatible with mixed ARI/non-ARI systems The original ARI support code has a compatibility problem with non-ARI devices. If a device doesn't support ARI, turning on ARI forwarding on its upper level bridge will cause undefined behavior. This fix turns on ARI forwarding only when the subordinate devices support it.

d2174c3 Kenji Kaneshige 17 October 2008, 00:23:51 UTC PCI hotplug: cpqphp: fix kernel NULL pointer dereference The following patch fixes the regression in 2.6.27 that causes kernel NULL pointer dereference at cpqphp driver probe time. This patch should be backported to the .27 stable series. Seems to have been introduced by f46753c5e354b857b20ab8e0fe7b2579831dc369. The root cause of this problem seems that cpqphp driver calls pci_hp_register() wrongly. In current implementation, cpqphp driver passes 'ctrl->pci_dev->subordinate' as a second parameter for pci_hp_register(). But because hotplug slots and it's hotplug controller (exists as a pci funcion) are on the same bus, it should be 'ctrl->pci_dev->bus' instead.

a8ddac7 Nick Piggin 21 October 2008, 08:59:15 UTC mutex: speed up generic mutex implementations - atomic operations which both modify the variable and return something imply full smp memory barriers before and after the memory operations involved (failing atomic_cmpxchg, atomic_add_unless, etc don't imply a barrier because they don't modify the target). See Documentation/atomic_ops.txt. So remove extra barriers and branches. - All architectures support atomic_cmpxchg. This has no relation to __HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG. We can just take the atomic_cmpxchg path unconditionally This reduces a simple single threaded fastpath lock+unlock test from 590 cycles to 203 cycles on a ppc970 system.

94b6da5 KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 22 October 2008, 21:15:05 UTC memcg: fix page_cgroup allocation page_cgroup_init() is called from mem_cgroup_init(). But at this point, we cannot call alloc_bootmem(). (and this caused panic at boot.) This patch moves page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c. Time table is following: == parse_args(). # we can trust mem_cgroup_subsys.disabled bit after this. .... cgroup_init_early() # "early" init of cgroup. .... setup_arch() # memmap is allocated. ... page_cgroup_init(); mem_init(); # we cannot call alloc_bootmem after this. .... cgroup_init() # mem_cgroup is initialized. == Before page_cgroup_init(), mem_map must be initialized. So, I added page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c directly. (*) maybe this is not very clean but - cgroup_init_early() is too early - in cgroup_init(), we have to use vmalloc instead of alloc_bootmem(). use of vmalloc area in x86-32 is important and we should avoid very large vmalloc() in x86-32. So, we want to use alloc_bootmem() and added page_cgroup_init() directly to init/main.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove unneeded/bad mem_cgroup_subsys declaration] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Acked-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 23 October 2008, 15:55:02 UTC
be07c4e Duane Griffin 22 October 2008, 21:15:03 UTC jbd: abort instead of waiting for nonexistent transactions The __log_wait_for_space function sits in a loop checkpointing transactions until there is sufficient space free in the journal. However, if there are no transactions to be processed (e.g. because the free space calculation is wrong due to a corrupted filesystem) it will never progress. Check for space being required when no transactions are outstanding and abort the journal instead of endlessly looping.

2d7c820 Hidehiro Kawai 22 October 2008, 21:15:01 UTC ext3: add checks for errors from jbd If the journal has aborted due to a checkpointing failure, we have to keep the contents of the journal space. Otherwise, the filesystem will lose uncheckpointed metadata completely and become inconsistent. To avoid this, we need to keep needs_recovery flag if checkpoint has failed. With this patch, ext3_put_super() detects a checkpointing failure from the return value of journal_destroy(), then it invokes ext3_abort() to make the filesystem read only and keep needs_recovery flag. Errors from journal_flush() are also handled by this patch in some places.

4afe978 Hidehiro Kawai 22 October 2008, 21:15:00 UTC jbd: fix error handling for checkpoint io When a checkpointing IO fails, current JBD code doesn't check the error and continue journaling. This means latest metadata can be lost from both the journal and filesystem. This patch leaves the failed metadata blocks in the journal space and aborts journaling in the case of log_do_checkpoint(). To achieve this, we need to do: 1. don't remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list where in the case of __try_to_free_cp_buf() because it may be released or overwritten by a later transaction 2. log_do_checkpoint() is the last chance, remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list and abort the journal 3. when checkpointing fails, don't update the journal super block to prevent the journaled contents from being cleaned. For safety, don't update j_tail and j_tail_sequence either 4. when checkpointing fails, notify this error to the ext3 layer so that ext3 don't clear the needs_recovery flag, otherwise the journaled contents are ignored and cleaned in the recovery phase 5. if the recovery fails, keep the needs_recovery flag 6. prevent cleanup_journal_tail() from being called between __journal_drop_transaction() and journal_abort() (a race issue between journal_flush() and __log_wait_for_space() Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: <linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 23 October 2008, 15:55:01 UTC

This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission() method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for performing this check. Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are not calling generic_permission(). Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode. Also fix up the following code: - coda control file is never executable - sysctl files are never executable - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> 23 October 2008, 09:13:25 UTC

The part of d_add_ci() isn't equivalent. But it should be needed fsnotify_d_instantiate() actually, because the path is to add the inode to negative dentry. fsnotify_d_instantiate() should be called after change from negative to positive.

If new_dentry == old_dentry, is_subdir() returns 1, looks strange. "new_dentry == old_dentry" is not subdir obviously. But I'm not checking callers for now, so this keeps current behavior.

14f7dd6 David Woodhouse 31 July 2008, 19:29:12 UTC [PATCH] Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code. Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file system code can cause deadlock. XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works. It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file systems too, where it's completely unnecessary. Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS export. In response to feedback, use it unconditionally rather than only for the affected file systems.

Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations. Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in libfs.c as exportfs_d_alloc so kill that one and switch the callers to d_obtain_alias.
