Should add some comments for the tag barriers (they won't be so important if we can switch over to the explicit _lock bitops, but for now we should make it clear). Jens' original patch said a barrier after the test_and_clear_bit was also required. I can't see why (and it would prevent the use of the _lock bitop). Acked-by:

Jens Axboe authored
There's a race condition in blk_queue_end_tag() for shared tag maps, users include stex (promise supertrak thingy) and qla2xxx. The former at least has reported bugs in this area, not sure why we haven't seen any for the latter. It could be because the window is narrow and that other conditions in the qla2xxx code hide this. It's a real bug, though, as the stex smp users can attest. We need to ensure two things - the tag bit clearing needs to happen AFTER we cleared the tag pointer, as the tag bit clearing/setting is what protects this map. Secondly, we need to ensure that the visibility of the tag pointer and tag bit clear are ordered properly. [ I removed the SMP barriers - "test_and_clear_bit()" already implies all the required barriers. -- Linus ] Also see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7842Signed-off-by:

This fixes a problem introduced with commit b5f2f4d1 The commit added a wrong chip definition to radeonfb which causes a blank console on my Laptop if radeonfb is loaded. The patch - renames PCI_CHIP_RS485_5975 to PCI_CHIP_RS482_5975 - corrects the chip family (RS480 instead of R300) for 0x5975 - ensures that PCI IDs are in ascending order in ati_ids.h Signed-off-by:

One of the very first things lguest_init() does is a memcpy. On Athlon/Duron/K7 or CyrixIII/VIA-C3 or Geode GX/LX, this tries to use MMX. memcpy -> _mmx_memcpy -> kernel_fpu_begin -> clts -> paravirt_ops.clts But we haven't set paravirt_ops.clts yet, so we do the native version and crash. The simplest solution is to use __memcpy. Thanks to Michael Rasenberger for the bug report. Signed-off-by:

With the I/O space rewrite by BenH, the legacy_serial serial_dev_init() initcall is now called before I/O space is setup, but it's dependent on it being available. Since there's no way to make dependencies between initcalls, we'll just have to move it to device_initcall(). Yes, it's suboptimal but I'm not aware of any better solution at this time, and it fixes a regression from 2.6.22. Signed-off-by:

Commit f629307c introduced uses of kernel_termios_to_user_termios_1 and user_termios_to_kernel_termios_1 on all architectures. However, powerpc, s390, avr32 and frv don't currently define those functions since their termios struct didn't need to be changed when the arbitrary baud rate stuff was added, and thus the kernel won't currently build on those architectures. This adds definitions of kernel_termios_to_user_termios_1 and user_termios_to_kernel_termios_1 to include/asm-generic/termios.h which are identical to kernel_termios_to_user_termios and user_termios_to_kernel_termios respectively. The definitions are the same because the "old" termios and "new" termios are in fact the same on these architectures (which are the same ones that use asm-generic/termios.h). Signed-off-by:

Intel framebuffer mis-calculated pixel clocks. The pixel clock (and thus both H and V sync) will be slower than requested, so if you set the minimum allowed the display may not sync. In case of really old CRT display it could theoretically damage it. I'm using it with PAL TV (using RGB input - SCART connector) and the bug prevented it from working at all (TV requirements are more strict and made the bug visible). Signed-off-by:

This was posted on Aug 28 and fixes an issue that could cause troubles when slab caches >=128k are created. http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=118798149918424&w=2 Currently we simply add the debug flags unconditional when checking for a matching slab. This creates issues for sysfs processing when slabs exist that are exempt from debugging due to their huge size or because only a subset of slabs was selected for debugging. We need to only add the flags if kmem_cache_open() would also add them. Create a function to calculate the flags that would be set if the cache would be opened and use that function to determine the flags before looking for a compatible slab.

Revert commit 656dad31 Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Date: Sat Feb 10 01:46:36 2007 -0800 [PATCH] highmem: catch illegal nesting Catch illegally nested kmap_atomic()s even if the page that is mapped by the 'inner' instance is from lowmem. This avoids spuriously zapped kmap-atomic ptes and turns hard to find crashes into clear asserts at the bug site. Problem is, a get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL) from interrupt context will trigger this check if non-irq code on this CPU holds a KM_USER0 mapping. But that get_zeroed_page() will never be altering the kmap slot anyway due to the GFP_KERNEL. Cc: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by:

The inode->i_flock list contains the leases, flocks and posix locks in the specified order. However, the flocks are added in the head of this list thus hiding the leases from F_GETLEASE command, from time_out_leases() and other code that expects the leases to come first. The following example will demonstrate this: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/file.h> static void show_lease(int fd) { int res; res = fcntl(fd, F_GETLEASE); switch (res) { case F_RDLCK: printf("Read lease\n"); break; case F_WRLCK: printf("Write lease\n"); break; case F_UNLCK: printf("No leases\n"); break; default: printf("Some shit\n"); break; } } int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd, res; fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY); if (fd == -1) { perror("Can't open file"); return 1; } res = fcntl(fd, F_SETLEASE, F_WRLCK); if (res == -1) { perror("Can't set lease"); return 1; } show_lease(fd); if (flock(fd, LOCK_SH) == -1) { perror("Can't flock shared"); return 1; } show_lease(fd); return 0; } The first call to show_lease() will show the write lease set, but the second will show no leases. Fix the flock adding so that the leases always stay in the head of this list. Found during making the flocks pid-namespaces aware. Signed-off-by:Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Acked-by:

Taneli Vähäkangas <vahakang@cs.helsinki.fi> reported that commit 786d7e16 aka "Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries" broke SBCL + SLIME combo. The old code in do_select() used DEFAULT_POLLMASK, if couldn't find ->poll handler. The new code makes ->poll always there and returns 0 by default, which is not correct. Return DEFAULT_POLLMASK instead. Steps to reproduce: install emacs, SBCL, SLIME emacs M-x slime in *inferior-lisp* buffer [watch it doing "Connecting to Swank on port X.."] Please, apply before 2.6.23. P.S.: why SBCL can't just read(2) /proc/cpuinfo is a mystery. Signed-off-by:

The semantics of call_usermodehelper_pipe() used to be that it would fork the helper, and wait for the kernel thread to be started. This was implemented by setting sub_info.wait to 0 (implicitly), and doing a wait_for_completion(). As part of the cleanup done in 0ab4dc92, call_usermodehelper_pipe() was changed to pass 1 as the value for wait to call_usermodehelper_exec(). This is equivalent to setting sub_info.wait to 1, which is a change from the previous behaviour. Using 1 instead of 0 causes __call_usermodehelper() to start the kernel thread running wait_for_helper(), rather than directly calling ____call_usermodehelper(). The end result is that the calling kernel code blocks until the user mode helper finishes. As the helper is expecting input on stdin, and now no one is writing anything, everything locks up (observed in do_coredump). The fix is to change the 1 to UMH_WAIT_EXEC (aka 0), indicating that we want to wait for the kernel thread to be started, but not for the helper to finish. Signed-off-by:

The futex list traversal on the compat side appears to have a bug. It's loop termination condition compares: while (compat_ptr(uentry) != &head->list) But that can't be right because "uentry" has the special "pi" indicator bit still potentially set at bit 0. This is cleared by fetch_robust_entry() into the "entry" return value. What this seems to mean is that the list won't terminate when list iteration gets back to the the head. And we'll also process the list head like a normal entry, which could cause all kinds of problems. So we should check for equality with "entry". That pointer is of the non-compat type so we have to do a little casting to keep the compiler and sparse happy. The same problem can in theory occur with the 'pending' variable, although that has not been reported from users so far. Based on the original patch from David Miller.
