| | | | | | | | | | | | | put_ioctx's refcount debugging was doing an atomic_read after dropping its reference when it wasn't the last ref, leaving a tiny race for another freeing thread to sneak into. This shifts the debugging before the ops, uses BUG_ON, and reformats the defines a little.

* [PATCH] aio: remove kioctx from mm_structZach Brown2005-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sync iocbs have a life cycle that don't need a kioctx. Their retrying, if any, is done in the context of their owner who has allocated them on the stack. The sole user of a sync iocb's ctx reference was aio_complete() checking for an elevated iocb ref count that could never happen. No path which grabs an iocb ref has access to sync iocbs. If we were to implement sync iocb cancelation it would be done by the owner of the iocb using its on-stack reference. Removing this chunk from aio_complete allows us to remove the entire kioctx instance from mm_struct, reducing its size by a third. On a i386 testing box the slab size went from 768 to 504 bytes and from 5 to 8 per page.

* [PATCH] stop_machine() vs. synchronous IPI send deadlockKirill Korotaev2005-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes deadlock of stop_machine() vs. synchronous IPI send. The problem is that stop_machine() disables interrupts before disabling preemption on other CPUs. So if another CPU is preempted and then calls something like flush_tlb_all() it will deadlock with CPU doing stop_machine() and which can't process IPI due to disabled IRQs. I changed stop_machine() to do the same things exactly as it does on other CPUs, i.e. it should disable preemption first on _all_ CPUs including itself and only after that disable IRQs.
