2008-10-18netdrvr: atl1e: Don't take the mdio_lock in atl1e_probeMatthew Wilcox
commit f382a0a8e9403c6d7f8b2cfa21e41fefb5d0c9bd upstream Lockdep warns about the mdio_lock taken with interrupts enabled then later taken from interrupt context. Initially, I considered changing these to spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq, but then I looked at atl1e_phy_init() and saw that it calls msleep(). Sleeping while holding a spinlock is not allowed either. In the probe path, we haven't registered the interrupt handler, so it can't poke at this card yet. It's before we call register_netdev(), so I don't think any other threads can reach this card either. If I'm right, we don't need a spinlock at all.

2008-10-18CIFS: make sure we have the right resume info before calling CIFSFindNextSteve French
commit 0752f1522a9120f731232919f7ad904e9e22b8ce upstream When we do a seekdir() or equivalent, we usually end up doing a FindFirst call and then call FindNext until we get to the offset that we want. The problem is that when we call FindNext, the code usually doesn't have the proper info (mostly, the filename of the entry from the last search) to resume the search. Add a "last_entry" field to the cifs_search_info that points to the last entry in the search. We calculate this pointer by using the LastNameOffset field from the search parms that are returned. We then use that info to do a cifs_save_resume_key before we call CIFSFindNext. This patch allows CIFS to reliably pass the "telldir" connectathon test.

2008-10-18Fix barrier fail detection in XFSChristoph Hellwig
commit 73f6aa4d44ab6157badc456ddfa05b31e58de5f0 upstream. Currently we disable barriers as soon as we get a buffer in xlog_iodone that has the XBF_ORDERED flag cleared. But this can be the case not only for buffers where the barrier failed, but also the first buffer of a split log write in case of a log wraparound. Due to the disabled barriers we can easily get directory corruption on unclean shutdowns. So instead of using this check add a new buffer flag for failed barrier writes. This is a regression vs 2.6.26 caused by patch to use the right macro to check for the ORDERED flag, as we previously got true returned for every buffer. Thanks to Toei Rei for reporting the bug.

2008-10-18x86: Reserve FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR in used_vectors bitmap.Stefan Bader
Not in upstream above 2.6.27 due to change in the way this code works (has been fixed differently there.) Someone from the community found out, that after repeatedly unloading and loading a device driver that uses MSI IRQs, the system eventually assigned the vector initially reserved for IRQ0 to the device driver. The reason for this is, that although IRQ0 is tied to the FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR when declaring the irq_vector table, the corresponding bit in the used_vectors map is not set. So, if vectors are released and assigned often enough, the vector will get assigned to another interrupt. This happens more often with MSI interrupts as those are exclusively using a vector. Fix this by setting the bit for the FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR in the bitmap.

2008-10-18sched_rt.c: resch needed in rt_rq_enqueue() for the root rt_rqDario Faggioli
commit f6121f4f8708195e88cbdf8dd8d171b226b3f858 upstream While working on the new version of the code for SCHED_SPORADIC I noticed something strange in the present throttling mechanism. More specifically in the throttling timer handler in sched_rt.c (do_sched_rt_period_timer()) and in rt_rq_enqueue(). The problem is that, when unthrottling a runqueue, rt_rq_enqueue() only asks for rescheduling if the runqueue has a sched_entity associated to it (i.e., rt_rq->rt_se != NULL). Now, if the runqueue is the root rq (which has a rt_se = NULL) rescheduling does not take place, and it is delayed to some undefined instant in the future. This imply some random bandwidth usage by the RT tasks under throttling. For instance, setting rt_runtime_us/rt_period_us = 950ms/1000ms an RT task will get less than 95%. In our tests we got something varying between 70% to 95%. Using smaller time values, e.g., 95ms/100ms, things are even worse, and I can see values also going down to 20-25%!! The tests we performed are simply running 'yes' as a SCHED_FIFO task, and checking the CPU usage with top, but we can investigate thoroughly if you think it is needed. Things go much better, for us, with the attached patch... Don't know if it is the best approach, but it solved the issue for us.

2008-10-15disable CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE due to possible memory corruption on module unloadSteven Rostedt
While debugging the e1000e corruption bug with Intel, we discovered today that the dynamic ftrace code in mainline is the likely source of this bug. For the stable kernel we are providing the only viable fix patch: labeling CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE as broken. (see the patch below) We will follow up with a backport patch that contains the fixes. But since the fixes are not a one liner, the safest approach for now is to disable the code in question. The cause of the bug is due to the way the current code in mainline handles dynamic ftrace. When dynamic ftrace is turned on, it also turns on CONFIG_FTRACE which enables the -pg config in gcc that places a call to mcount at every function call. With just CONFIG_FTRACE this causes a noticeable overhead. CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE works to ease this overhead by dynamically updating the mcount call sites into nops. The problem arises when we trace functions and modules are unloaded. The first time a function is called, it will call mcount and the mcount call will call ftrace_record_ip. This records the calling site and stores it in a preallocated hash table. Later on a daemon will wake up and call kstop_machine and convert any mcount callers into nops. The evolution of this code first tried to do this without the kstop_machine and used cmpxchg to update the callers as they were called. But I was informed that this is dangerous to do on SMP machines if another CPU is running that same code. The solution was to do this with kstop_machine. We still used cmpxchg to test if the code that we are modifying is indeed code that we expect to be before updating it - as a final line of defense. But on 32bit machines, ioremapped memory and modules share the same address space. When a module would load its code into memory and execute some code, that would register the function. On module unload, ftrace incorrectly did not zap these functions from its hash (this was the bug). The cmpxchg could have saved us in most cases (via luck) - but with ioremap-ed memory that was exactly the wrong thing to do - the results of cmpxchg on device memory are undefined. (and will likely result in a write) The pending .28 ftrace tree does not have this bug anymore, as a general push towards more robustness of code patching, this is done differently: we do not use cmpxchg and we do a WARN_ON and turn the tracer off if anything deviates from its expected state. Furthermore, patch sites are statically identified during build time so there's no runtime discovery of dynamic code areas anymore, and no room for code unmaps to cause the hash to become out of date. We believe the fragility of dynamic patching has been sufficiently addressed in the development code via the static patching method, but further suggestions to make it more robust are welcome.

2008-10-09Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPENDLinus Torvalds
This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination. It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones. But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought, and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file). So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this way we have one less gray area to worry about.

As netdev_run_todo always follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait for the very ones that you've added and be done with it.

2008-10-07net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UPPatrick McHardy
Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN device down that is in promiscous mode: When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented a second time by the vlan_change_rx_flags() callback. The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags() is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP. Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the intended behaviour.

I think the problem comes from "markers: fix duplicate modpost entry" (commit d35cb360c29956510b2fe1a953bd4968536f7216) Especially : - add_marker(mod, marker, fmt); + if (!mod->skip) + add_marker(mod, marker, fmt); } return; fail: Here is a fix that should take care if this problem.

2008-10-06atmel-mci: Initialize BLKR before sending data transfer commandHaavard Skinnemoen
The atmel-mci driver sometimes fails data transfers like this: mmcblk0: error -5 transferring data end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 2749769 end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 2749777 It turns out that this might be caused by the BLKR register (which contains the block size and the number of blocks being transfered) being initialized too late. This patch moves the initialization of BLKR so that it contains the correct value before the block transfer command is sent. This error is difficult to reproduce, but if you insert a long delay (mdelay(10) or thereabouts) between the calls to atmci_start_command() and atmci_submit_data(), all transfers seem to fail without this patch, while I haven't seen any failures with this patch.

Since we reverted 30902dc3cb0ea1cfc7ac2b17bcf478ff98420d74 ("ax25: Fix std timer socket destroy handling.") we have to put some kind of fix in to cure the issue whereby unaccepted connections do not get destroyed.
