0ba4da0 [PATCH] sparc64: Fix stat Like Alpha, sparc64's struct stat was defined before we had the nanosecond et al. fields added. So like Alpha I have to cons up a struct stat64 to get this stuff. I'll work on the glibc bits soon. Also, we were forgetting to fill in the nanosecond fields in the sparc compat stat64 syscalls. Signed-off-by: David S.

9a9947b [PATCH] Add 32-bit compatibility for NFSv4 mount This adds 32-bit compatibility for mounting an NFSv4 mount on a 64-bit kernel (such as happens with PPC64). The problem is that the mount data for the NFS4 mount process includes auxilliary data pointers, probably because the NFS4 mount data may conceivably exceed PAGE_SIZE in size - thus breaking against the hard limit imposed by sys_mount().

219f081 [PATCH] SELinux: fix deadlock on dcache lock This fixes a deadlock on the dcache lock detected during testing at IBM by moving the logging of the current executable information from the SELinux avc_audit function to audit_log_exit (via an audit_log_task_info helper) for processing upon syscall exit. For consistency, the patch also removes the logging of other task-related information from avc_audit, deferring handling to audit_log_exit instead. This allows simplification of the avc_audit code, allows the exe information to be obtained more reliably, always includes the comm information (useful for scripts), and avoids including bogus task information for checks performed from irq or softirq.

dadeafd [PATCH] sparc64: Reduce ptrace cache flushing We were flushing the D-cache excessively for ptrace() processing and this makes debugging threads so slow as to be totally unusable. All process page accesses via ptrace() go via access_process_vm(). This routine, for each process page, uses get_user_pages(). That in turn does a flush_dcache_page() on the child pages before we copy in/out the ptrace request data. Therefore, all we need to do after the data movement is: 1) Flush the D-cache pages if the kernel maps the page to a different color than userspace does. 2) If we wrote to the page, we need to flush the I-cache on older cpus. Previously we just flushed the entire cache at the end of a ptrace() request, and that was beyond stupid. Signed-off-by: David S.

fb65b96 [PATCH] sparc: Fix PTRACE_CONT bogosity SunOS aparently had this weird PTRACE_CONT semantic which we copied. If the addr argument is something other than 1, it sets the process program counter to whatever that value is. This is different from every other Linux architecture, which don't do anything with the addr and data args. This difference in particular breaks the Linux native GDB support for fork and vfork tracing on sparc and sparc64. There is no interest in running SunOS binaries using this weird PTRACE_CONT behavior, so just delete it so we behave like other platforms do. Signed-off-by: David S.

1d4d5b3 [PATCH] revert fs/char_dev.c CONFIG_BASE_FULL change This reverts a fs/char_dev.c patch that was merged into BK on March 3. The problem is that it breaks things ... __register_chrdev_region() has a block of code, commented "temporary" for over two years now, which fails rudely during PCMCIA initialization or other register_chrdev() calls, because it doesn't "degrade to linked list". This keeps whole subsystems from working. A real fix to that "temporary" code should be possible, using some better scheme to allocate major numbers, but it's not something I want to spend time on just now.

d13df84 [PATCH] jbd dirty buffer leak fix This fixes the lots-of-fsx-linux-instances-cause-a-slow-leak bug. It's been there since 2.6.6, caused by: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.5/2.6.5-mm4/broken-out/jbd-move-locked-buffers.patch That patch moves under-writeout ordered-data buffers onto a separate journal list during commit. It took out the old code which was based on a single list. The old code (necessarily) had logic which would restart I/O against buffers which had been redirtied while they were on the committing transaction's t_sync_datalist list. The new code only writes buffers once, ignoring redirtyings by a later transaction, which is good. But over on the truncate side of things, in journal_unmap_buffer(), we're treating buffers on the t_locked_list as inviolable things which belong to the committing transaction, and we just leave them alone during concurrent truncate-vs-commit. The net effect is that when truncate tries to invalidate a page whose buffers are on t_locked_list and have been redirtied, journal_unmap_buffer() just leaves those buffers alone. truncate will remove the page from its mapping and we end up with an anonymous clean page with dirty buffers, which is an illegal state for a page. The JBD commit will not clean those buffers as they are removed from t_locked_list. The VM (try_to_free_buffers) cannot reclaim these pages. The patch teaches journal_unmap_buffer() about buffers which are on the committing transaction's t_locked_list. These buffers have been written and I/O has completed. We can take them off the transaction and undirty them within the context of journal_invalidatepage()->journal_unmap_buffer(). Acked-by: "Stephen C.

44ea668 [PATCH] IB/mthca: fix MTT allocation in mem-free mode Fix bug in MTT allocation in mem-free mode. I misunderstood the MTT size value returned by the firmware -- it is really the size of a single MTT entry, since mem-free mode does not segment the MTT as the original firmware did. This meant that our MTT addresses ended up being off by a factor of 8. This meant that our MTT allocations might overlap, and so we could overwrite and corrupt earlier memory regions when writing new MTT entries. We fix this by always using our 64-byte MTT segment size. This allows some simplification of the code as well, since there's no reason to put the MTT segment size in a variable -- we can always use our enum value directly.

dae409a [PATCH] add Big Endian variants of ioread/iowrite In the new io infrastructure, all of our operators are expecting the underlying device to be little endian (because the PCI bus, their main consumer, is LE). However, there are a fair few devices and busses in the world that are actually Big Endian. There's even evidence that some of these BE bus and chip types are attached to LE systems. Thus, there's a need for a BE equivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations. The attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be. When it's in, I'll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).

29504ff [PATCH] Direct IO async short read fix The direct I/O code is mapping the read request to the file system block. If the file size was not on a block boundary, the result would show the the read reading past EOF. This was only happening for the AIO case. The non-AIO case truncates the result to match file size (in direct_io_worker). This patch does the same thing for the AIO case, it truncates the result to match the file size if the read reads past EOF. When I/O completes the result can be truncated to match the file size without using i_size_read(), thus the aio result now matches the number of bytes read to the end of file.

e072c6f [PATCH] ext2 corruption - regression between 2.6.9 and 2.6.10 Whilst trying to stress test a Promise SX8 card, we stumbled across some nasty filesystem corruption in ext2. Our tests involved creating an ext2 partition, mounting, running several concurrent fsx's over it, umounting, and fsck'ing, all scripted[1]. The fsck would always return with errors. This regression was traced back to a change between 2.6.9 and 2.6.10, which moves the functionality of ext2_put_inode into ext2_clear_inode. The attached patch reverses this change, and eliminated the source of corruption. Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> said: I think his patch for ext2 is correct. The corruption on ext3 is not the same issue he saw on ext2. I believe that's the race between discard reservation and reservation in-use that we already fixed it in 2.6.12- rc1. For the problem related to ext2, at the time when we design reservation for ext3, we decide we only need to discard the reservation at the last file close, so we have ext3_discard_reservation on iput_final- >ext3_clear_inode. The ext2 handle discard preallocation differently at that time, it discard the preallocation at each iput(), not in input_final(), so we think it's unnecessary to thrash it so frequently, and the right thing to do, as we did for ext3 reservation, discard preallocation on last iput(). So we moved the ext2_discard_preallocation from ext2_put_inode(0 to ext2_clear_inode. Since ext2 preallocation is doing pre-allocation on disk, so it is possible that at the unmount time, someone is still hold the reference of the inode, so the preallocation for a file is not discard yet, so we still mark those blocks allocated on disk, while they are not actually in the inode's block map, so fsck will catch/fix that error later. This is not a issue for ext3, as ext3 reservation(pre-allocation) is done in memory.
