This should fix the sysfs warnings that renaming network devices is causing to show up with CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y The code just shouldn't run if class devices are real directories, it's an update for the symlink in the class directory. Nobody noticed that as long as the creation of sysfs files silently failed, and we both missed it before the merge, because we don't run SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y.

Commit commit 65b8291c ("dio: invalidate clean pages before dio write") introduced a bug which stopped dio from ever invalidating the page cache after writes. It still invalidated it before writes so most users were fine. Karl Schendel reported ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/26/481 ) hitting this bug when he had a buffered reader immediately reading file data after an O_DIRECT wirter had written the data. The kernel issued read-ahead beyond the position of the reader which overlapped with the O_DIRECT writer. The failure to invalidate after writes caused the reader to see stale data from the read-ahead. The following patch is originally from Karl. The following commentary is his: The below 3rd try takes on your suggestion of just invalidating no matter what the retval from the direct_IO call. I ran it thru the test-case several times and it has worked every time. The post-invalidate is probably still too early for async-directio, but I don't have a testcase for that; just sync. And, this won't be any worse in the async case. I added a test to the aio-dio-regress repository which mimics Karl's IO pattern. It verifed the bad behaviour and that the patch fixed it. I agree with Karl, this still doesn't help the case where a buffered reader follows an AIO O_DIRECT writer. That will require a bit more work. This gives up on the idea of returning EIO to indicate to userspace that stale data remains if the invalidation failed.

Inside a function declared as void foo(char bar[512]) the value of sizeof bar is the size of a pointer, not 512. So avoid constructions like this by passing the size explicitly.

The small eeprom that holds the GUID etc. contains a data-length, but if the actual eeprom is new or has been erased, that byte will be 0xFF, which is greater than the maximum physical length of the eeprom, and more importantly greater than the length of the buffer we vmalloc'd.

It's currently possible to send posix_locks_deadlock() into an infinite loop (under the BKL). For now, fix this just by bailing out after a few iterations. We may want to fix this in a way that better clarifies the semantics of deadlock detection. But that will take more time, and this minimal fix is probably adequate for any realistic scenario, and is simple enough to be appropriate for applying to stable kernels now.

Evgeniy said: I wonder on what type of UFS do you test this patch? NetBSD and FreeBSD do not use "fs_state", they use "fs_clean" flag, only Solaris does check like this: fs_state + fs_time == FSOK. That's why parentheses was like that. At now with linux-2.6.24-rc1-git1, I get: fs need fsck, but NetBSD's fsck says that's all ok. I suggest revert this patch.

It's possible to provoke unionfs (not yet in mainline, though in mm and some distros) to hit shmem_writepage's BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)). I expect it's possible to provoke the 2.6.23 ecryptfs in the same way (but the 2.6.24 ecryptfs no longer calls lower level's ->writepage). This came to light with the recent find that AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE could leak from tmpfs via write_cache_pages and unionfs to userspace. There's already a fix (e4230030 - writeback: don't propagate AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE) in the tree for that, and it's okay so far as it goes; but insufficient because it doesn't address the underlying issue, that shmem_writepage expects to be called only by vmscan (relying on backing_dev_info capabilities to prevent the normal writeback path from ever approaching it). That's an increasingly fragile assumption, and ramdisk_writepage (the other source of AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATEs) is already careful to check wbc->for_reclaim before returning it. Make the same check in shmem_writepage, thereby sidestepping the page_mapped BUG also.

mm/sparse-vmemmap.c uses init_mm in some places. However, it is not present in any of the headers currently included in the file. init_mm is defined as extern in sched.h, so we add it to the headers list Up to now, this problem was masked by the fact that functions like set_pte_at() and pmd_populate_kernel() are usually macros that expand to simpler variants that does not use the first parameter at all.
