Priority: not critical. Change 3 functions from __init to __devinit. Could be an init/probe problem in theory, but not observed, so not high priority IMO.

In the course of trying to track down a bug where a file mtime was not being updated correctly, it was discovered that the m/ctime updates were not quite being handled correctly for ftruncate() calls. Quoth SUSv3: open(2): If O_TRUNC is set and the file did previously exist, upon successful completion, open() shall mark for update the st_ctime and st_mtime fields of the file. truncate(2): Upon successful completion, if the file size is changed, this function shall mark for update the st_ctime and st_mtime fields of the file, and the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits of the file mode may be cleared. ftruncate(2): Upon successful completion, if fildes refers to a regular file, the ftruncate() function shall mark for update the st_ctime and st_mtime fields of the file and the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits of the file mode may be cleared. If the ftruncate() function is unsuccessful, the file is unaffected. The open(O_TRUNC) and truncate cases were being handled correctly, but the ftruncate case was being handled like the truncate case. The semantics of truncate and ftruncate don't quite match, so ftruncate needs to be handled slightly differently. The attached patch addresses this issue for ftruncate(2). My thanx to Stephen Tweedie and Trond Myklebust for their help in understanding the situation and semantics. Signed-off-by:Peter Staubach <staubach@redhat.com> Cc: "Stephen C.

I'm testing glibc on MIPS64, little-endian, N32, O32 and N64 multilibs. Among the NPTL test failures seen are some arising from sigsuspend problems for N32: it blocks the wrong signals, so SIGCANCEL (SIGRTMIN) is blocked despite glibc's carefully excluding it from sets of signals to block. Specifically, testing suggests it blocks signal N^32 instead of signal N, so (in the example tested) blocking SIGUSR1 (17) blocks signal 49 instead. glibc's sigset_t uses an array of unsigned long, as does the kernel. In both cases, signal N+1 is represented as (1UL << (N % (8 * sizeof (unsigned long)))) in word number (N / (8 * sizeof (unsigned long))). Thus the N32 glibc uses an array of 32-bit words and the N64 kernel uses an array of 64-bit words. For little-endian, the layout is the same, with signals 1-32 in the first 4 bytes, signals 33-64 in the second, etc.; for big-endian, userspace has that layout while in the kernel each 8 bytes have the two halves swapped from the userspace layout. The N32 sigsuspend syscall uses sigset_from_compat to convert the userspace sigset to kernel format. If __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__ is *not* set, this uses logic of the form set->sig[0] = compat->sig[0] | (((long)compat->sig[1]) << 32 ) to convert the userspace sigset to a kernel one. This looks correct to me for both big and little endian, given that in userspace compat->sig[1] will represent signals 33-64, and so will the high 32 bits of set->sig[0] in the kernel. If however __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__ *is* set, as it is for __MIPSEL__, it uses set->sig[0] = compat->sig[1] | (((long)compat->sig[0]) << 32 ); which seems incorrect for both big and little endian, and would explain the observed symptoms. This code is the only use of __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__, so if incorrect then that macro serves no purpose, in which case something like the following patch would seem appropriate to remove it.

Finding "init_module" high stack usage problems is challenging when there are over 1600 "init_module" functions in the kernel tree, so make checkstack.pl print out the filename where the stack usage occurs. This is useful for code built as loadable modules. For built-in code, it just prints the kernel image file name, like "vmlinux". Examples: (before patch:) 0x0000000d callback: 1928 0xffffffff81678c09 huft_build: 1560 0x0018 init_module: 1512 (after patch:) 0x0000000d callback [divacapi]: 1928 0xffffffff81678c09 huft_build [vmlinux]: 1560 0x0018 init_module [hdaps]: 1512 Also change one if-series to use elsif to cut down on unneeded tests.

This patch adds support for the v3020 RTC from EM Microelectronic. The v3020 RTC is designed to be connected on a bus using only one data bit. Since any data bit may be used, it is necessary to specify this to the driver by passing a struct v3020_platform_data pointer (see include/linux/rtc-v3020.h) to the driver. Part of the following code comes from the kernel patchs produced by Compulab for their products. The original file (available here: http://raph.people.8d.com/misc/emv3020.c) was released under the terms of the GPL license. [akpm@osdl.org: cleanups] Signed-off-by:

Import genrtc's RTC UIE emulation (CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X) to rtc-dev driver with slight adjustments/refinements. This makes UIE-less rtc drivers work better with programs doing read/poll on /dev/rtc, such as hwclock. This emulation should not harm rtc drivers with UIE support, since rtc_dev_ioctl() calls underlaying rtc driver's ioctl() first. Signed-off-by:

This is an "RTC-framework" driver for DS1307 and similar RTC chips, It should be a full replacement for the existing ds1337.c driver (using the older RTC glue), giving a net increase in the number of RTC chips that work out-of-the-box. There's a whole cluster of RTCs that are very similar, but the 1337 driver was a bit too picky to work with most of them. Still no support for RTC alarm IRQs (on chips that support them).

Currently, enabling/disabling printk timestamps is only possible through reboot (bootparam) or recompile. I normally do not run with timestamps (since syslog handles that in a good manner), but for measuring small kernel delays (e.g. irq probing - see parport thread) I needed subsecond precision, but then again, just for some minutes rather than all kernel messages to come. The following patch adds a module_param() with which the timestamps can be en-/disabled in a live system through /sys/modules/printk/parameters/printk_time. Signed-off-by:

A few days ago Arjan signaled a lockdep red flag on epoll locks, and precisely between the epoll's device structure lock (->lock) and the wait queue head lock (->lock). Like I explained in another email, and directly to Arjan, this can't happen in reality because of the explicit check at eventpoll.c:592, that does not allow to drop an epoll fd inside the same epoll fd. Since lockdep is working on per-structure locks, it will never be able to know of policies enforced in other parts of the code. It was decided time ago of having the ability to drop epoll fds inside other epoll fds, that triggers a very trick wakeup operations (due to possibly reentrant callback-driven wakeups) handled by the ep_poll_safewake() function. While looking again at the code though, I noticed that all the operations done on the epoll's main structure wait queue head (->wq) are already protected by the epoll lock (->lock), so that locked-style functions can be used to manipulate the ->wq member. This makes both a lock-acquire save, and lockdep happy. Running totalmess on my dual opteron for a while did not reveal any problem so far: http://www.xmailserver.org/totalmess.cSigned-off-by:

Some of the in-kernel ext3 block variable type are treated as signed 4 bytes int type, thus limited ext3 filesystem to 8TB (4kblock size based). While trying to fix them, it seems quite confusing in the ext3 code where some blocks are filesystem-wide blocks, some are group relative offsets that need to be signed value (as -1 has special meaning). So it seem saner to define two types of physical blocks: one is filesystem wide blocks, another is group-relative blocks. The following patches clarify these two types of blocks in the ext3 code, and fix the type bugs which limit current 32 bit ext3 filesystem limit to 8TB. With this series of patches and the percpu counter data type changes in the mm tree, we are able to extend exts filesystem limit to 16TB. This work is also a pre-request for the recent >32 bit ext3 work, and makes the kernel to able to address 48 bit ext3 block a lot easier: Simply redefine ext3_fsblk_t from unsigned long to sector_t and redefine the format string for ext3 filesystem block corresponding. Two RFC with a series patches have been posted to ext2-devel list and have been reviewed and discussed: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114722190816690&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114784919525942&w=2 Patches are tested on both 32 bit machine and 64 bit machine, <8TB ext3 and >8TB ext3 filesystem(with the latest to be released e2fsprogs-1.39). Tests includes overnight fsx, tiobench, dbench and fsstress. This patch: Defines ext3_fsblk_t and ext3_grpblk_t, and the printk format string for filesystem wide blocks. This patch classifies all block group relative blocks, and ext3_fsblk_t blocks occurs in the same function where used to be confusing before. Also include kernel bug fixes for filesystem wide in-kernel block variables. There are some fileystem wide blocks are treated as int/unsigned int type in the kernel currently, especially in ext3 block allocation and reservation code. This patch fixed those bugs by converting those variables to ext3_fsblk_t(unsigned long) type. Signed-off-by:

As described in a previous patch and documented in mm/filemap.h, copy_from_user_inatomic* shouldn't zero out the tail of the buffer after an incomplete copy. This patch implements that change for i386. For the _nocache version, a new __copy_user_intel_nocache is defined similar to copy_user_zeroio_intel_nocache, and this is ultimately used for the copy. For the regular version, __copy_from_user_ll_nozero is defined which uses __copy_user and __copy_user_intel - the later needs casts to reposition the __user annotations. If copy_from_user_atomic is given a constant length of 1, 2, or 4, then we do still zero the destintion on failure. This didn't seem worth the effort of fixing as the places where it is used really don't care. Signed-off-by:
