The original minix zmap blocks calculation was correct, in the formula of: sbi->s_nzones - sbi->s_firstdatazone + 1 It is sp->s_zones - (sp->s_firstdatazone - 1) in the minix3 source code. But a later commit 016e8d44 ("fs/minix: Verify bitmap block counts before mounting") has changed it unfortunately as: sbi->s_nzones - (sbi->s_firstdatazone + 1) This would show free blocks one block less than the real when the total data blocks are in "full zmap blocks plus one". This patch corrects that zmap blocks calculation and tidy a printk message while at it. Signed-off-by:

Under normal circumstances nilfs_sync_fs() writes out the super block, which causes a flush of the underlying block device. But this depends on the THE_NILFS_SB_DIRTY flag, which is only set if the pointer to the last segment crosses a segment boundary. So if only a small amount of data is written before the call to nilfs_sync_fs(), no flush of the block device occurs. In the above case an additional call to blkdev_issue_flush() is needed. To prevent unnecessary overhead, the new flag nilfs->ns_flushed_device is introduced, which is cleared whenever new logs are written and set whenever the block device is flushed. For convenience the function nilfs_flush_device() is added, which contains the above logic. Signed-off-by:

It actually goes back to 2004 ([PATCH] Concurrent O_SYNC write support) when sync_page_range() had been introduced; generic_file_write{,v}() correctly synced pos_after_write - written .. pos_after_write - 1 but generic_file_aio_write() synced pos_before_write .. pos_before_write + written - 1 instead. Which is not the same thing with O_APPEND, obviously. A couple of years later correct variant had been killed off when everything switched to use of generic_file_aio_write(). All users of generic_file_aio_write() are affected, and the same bug has been copied into other instances of ->aio_write(). The fix is trivial; the only subtle point is that generic_write_sync() ought to be inlined to avoid calculations useless for the majority of calls.

This fixes an old regression introduced by commit b0d0d915 (ipx: remove the BKL). When a recvmsg syscall blocks waiting for new data, no data can be sent on the same socket with sendmsg because ipx_recvmsg() sleeps with the socket locked. This breaks mars-nwe (NetWare emulator): - the ncpserv process reads the request using recvmsg - ncpserv forks and spawns nwconn - ncpserv calls a (blocking) recvmsg and waits for new requests - nwconn deadlocks in sendmsg on the same socket Commit b0d0d915 has simply replaced BKL locking with lock_sock/release_sock. Unlike now, BKL got unlocked while sleeping, so a blocking recvmsg did not block a concurrent sendmsg. Only keep the socket locked while actually working with the socket data and release it prior to calling skb_recv_datagram(). Signed-off-by:

There could be a signed overflow in the following code. The expression, (32-logmask) is comprised between 0 and 31 included. It may be equal to 31. In such a case the left shift will produce a signed integer overflow. According to the C99 Standard, this is an undefined behavior. A simple fix is to replace the signed int 1 with the unsigned int 1U. Signed-off-by:

Current implementation of HFS+ driver has small issue with remount option. Namely, for example, you are unable to remount from RO mode into RW mode by means of command "mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus". Trying to execute sequence of commands results in an error message: mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount -o remount,ro /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount: you must specify the filesystem type mount -t hfsplus -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount: /mnt/hfsplus not mounted or bad option The reason of such issue is failure of mount syscall: mount("/dev/loop0", "/mnt/hfsplus", 0x2282a60, MS_MGC_VAL|MS_REMOUNT, NULL) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) Namely, hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method receives empty "input" argument and return false in such case. As a result, hfsplus_remount() returns -EINVAL error code. This patch fixes the issue by means of return true for the case of empty "input" argument in hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method.

The ca91cx42 and tsi148 VME bridges use the width of reads and writes on the PCI bus in part to control the width of the cycles on the VME bus. It is important that we can control the width of cycles on the VME bus as some VME hardware requires cycles of a specific width. The memcpy_toio() and memcpy_fromio() functions do not provide sufficient control, so instead loop using ioread functions. Reported-by:

Previously, tsi148_master_set() assumed the address contained in its PCI bus resource represented the actual PCI bus address. This is a fine assumption on some platforms. However, on platforms that don't use a 1:1 (CPU:PCI) mapping this results in the tsi148 driver configuring an invalid master window translation. This patch updates the vme_tsi148 driver to first convert the address contained in the PCI bus resource into a PCI bus address before using it.

The lubbock platform uses the sa1111 companion chip with a pxa250 CPU, which means it requires both the PCMCIA_SA1111 and the PCMCIA_PXA2XX code to be built into the kernel. Unfortunately, the Makefile and Kconfig don't agree on how this is accomplished, leading to a situation where you get this link error when building a lubbock kernel with PCMCIA_SA1111 enabled but PCMCIA_PXA2XX disabled: ERROR: "pxa2xx_configure_sockets" [drivers/pcmcia/sa1111_cs.ko] undefined!

The rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function checks for three conditions before waking up grace period kthreads: * Is the thread we are trying to wake up the current thread? * Are the gp_flags zero? (all threads wait on non-zero gp_flags condition) * Is there no thread created for this flavour, hence nothing to wake up? If any one of these condition is true, we do not call wake_up(). It was found that there are quite a few avoidable wake ups both during idle time and under stress induced by rcutorture. Idle: Total:66000, unnecessary:66000, case1:61827, case2:66000, case3:0 Total:68000, unnecessary:68000, case1:63696, case2:68000, case3:0 rcutorture: Total:254000, unnecessary:254000, case1:199913, case2:254000, case3:0 Total:256000, unnecessary:256000, case1:201784, case2:256000, case3:0 Here case{1-3} are the cases listed above. We can avoid these wake ups by using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() to conditionally wake up the grace period kthreads. There is a comment about an implied barrier supplied by the wake_up() logic. This barrier is necessary for the awakened thread to see the updated ->gp_flags. This flag is always being updated with the root node lock held. Also, the awakened thread tries to acquire the root node lock before reading ->gp_flags because of which there is proper ordering. Hence this commit tries to avoid calling wake_up() whenever we can by using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function.

Sometimes on Dell Latitude laptops psmouse/alps driver receive invalid ALPS protocol V3 packets with bit7 set in last byte. More often it can be reproduced on Dell Latitude E6440 or E7440 with closed lid and pushing cover above touchpad. If bit7 in last packet byte is set then it is not valid ALPS packet. I was told that ALPS devices never send these packets. It is not know yet who send those packets, it could be Dell EC, bug in BIOS and also bug in touchpad firmware... With this patch alps driver does not process those invalid packets, but instead of reporting PSMOUSE_BAD_DATA, getting into out of sync state, getting back in sync with the next byte and spam dmesg we return PSMOUSE_FULL_PACKET. If driver is truly out of sync we'll fail the checks on the next byte and report PSMOUSE_BAD_DATA then. Signed-off-by:

Since f660daac (oom: thaw threads if oom killed thread is frozen before deferring) OOM killer relies on being able to thaw a frozen task to handle OOM situation but a3201227 (freezer: make freezing() test freeze conditions in effect instead of TIF_FREEZE) has reorganized the code and stopped clearing freeze flag in __thaw_task. This means that the target task only wakes up and goes into the fridge again because the freezing condition hasn't changed for it. This reintroduces the bug fixed by f660daac. Fix the issue by checking for TIF_MEMDIE thread flag in freezing_slow_path and exclude the task from freezing completely. If a task was already frozen it would get woken by __thaw_task from OOM killer and get out of freezer after rechecking freezing(). Changes since v1 - put TIF_MEMDIE check into freezing_slowpath rather than in __refrigerator as per Oleg - return __thaw_task into oom_scan_process_thread because oom_kill_process will not wake task in the fridge because it is sleeping uninterruptible [mhocko@suse.cz: rewrote the changelog] Fixes: a3201227 (freezer: make freezing() test freeze conditions in effect instead of TIF_FREEZE) Cc: 3.3+ <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.3+ Signed-off-by:

This patch attempts to do a few things. The highlights are: 1) enable SPARSE_IRQ unconditionally, 2) kills off !SPARSE_IRQ code 3) allocates ivector_table at boot time and 4) default to cookie only VIRQ mechanism for supported firmware. The first firmware with cookie only support for me appears on T5. You can optionally force the HV firmware to not cookie only mode which is the sysino support. The sysino is a deprecated HV mechanism according to the most recent SPARC Virtual Machine Specification. HV_GRP_INTR is what controls the cookie/sysino firmware versioning. The history of this interface is: 1) Major version 1.0 only supported sysino based interrupt interfaces. 2) Major version 2.0 added cookie based VIRQs, however due to the fact that OSs were using the VIRQs without negoatiating major version 2.0 (Linux and Solaris are both guilty), the VIRQs calls were allowed even with major version 1.0 To complicate things even further, the VIRQ interfaces were only actually hooked up in the hypervisor for LDC interrupt sources. VIRQ calls on other device types would result in HV_EINVAL errors. So effectively, major version 2.0 is unusable. 3) Major version 3.0 was created to signal use of VIRQs and the fact that the hypervisor has these calls hooked up for all interrupt sources, not just those for LDC devices. A new boot option is provided should cookie only HV support have issues. hvirq - this is the version for HV_GRP_INTR. This is related to HV API versioning. The code attempts major=3 first by default. The option can be used to override this default. I've tested with SPARSE_IRQ on T5-8, M7-4 and T4-X and Jalap?no. Signed-off-by:

Commits b7c9e4ee ("sysctl net: Keep tcp_syn_retries inside the boundary") and eedcafdc ("net: check net.core.somaxconn sysctl values") were missing a .strategy entry which is still required in 2.6.32. Because of this, the Ubuntu kernel team has faced kernel dumps during their testing. Tyler Hicks and Luis Henriques proposed this patch to fix the issue, which properly sets .strategy as needed in 2.6.32. Reported-by:

When copying in a struct msghdr from the user, if the user has set the msg_namelen parameter to a negative value it gets clamped to a valid size due to a comparison between signed and unsigned values. Ensure the syscall errors when the user passes in a negative value. Signed-off-by:

The following commit: b6c40d68 net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP tried to fix a problem with VLAN devices and promiscuouse flag setting. The issue was that VLAN device was setting a flag on an interface that was down, thus resulting in bad promiscuity count. This commit blocked flag propagation to any device that is currently down. A later commit: deede2fa vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces fixed VLAN code to only propagate flags when the VLAN interface is up, thus fixing the same issue as above, only localized to VLAN. The problem we have now is that if we have create a complex stack involving multiple software devices like bridges, bonds, and vlans, then it is possible that the flags would not propagate properly to the physical devices. A simple examle of the scenario is the following: eth0----> bond0 ----> bridge0 ---> vlan50 If bond0 or eth0 happen to be down at the time bond0 is added to the bridge, then eth0 will never have promisc mode set which is currently required for operation as part of the bridge. As a result, packets with vlan50 will be dropped by the interface. The only 2 devices that implement the special flag handling are VLAN and DSA and they both have required code to prevent incorrect flag propagation. As a result we can remove the generic solution introduced in b6c40d68 and leave it to the individual devices to decide whether they will block flag propagation or not.
