* [ARM] 3200/1: Singlestep over ARM BX and BLX instructions using ptrace fixNikola Valerjev2005-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Nikola Valerjev Single stepping an application using ptrace() fails over ARM instructions BX and BLX. Steps to reproduce: Compile and link the following files main.c ----- void foo(); int main() { foo(); return 0; } foo.s ----- .text .globl foo foo: BX LR Using ptrace() functionality, run to main(), and start singlestepping. Singlestep over \"BX LR\" instruction won\'t transfer the control back to main, but run the code to completion. This problems seems to be in the function get_branch_address() in arch/arm/kernel/ptrace.c. The function doesn\'t seem to recognize BX and BLX instructions as branches. BX and BLX instructions can be used to convert from ARM to Thumb mode if the target address has the low bit set. However, they are also perfectly legal in the ARM only mode. Although other things in the kernel seem to indicate that only ARM mode is accepted (and not Thumb), many compilers will generate BX and BLX instructions even when generating ARM only code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hey, for no other reason than the fact that I'll be off-line for a week. Of course, I could force everybody to just use git (and when I'm emperor of the world, don't think I won't!), but it seems some people want to just test official releases.

* Link USB drivers later in the kernelLinus Torvalds2005-12-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | We want to link the "regular" SCSI drivers before the USB storage driver, since historically we've always detected internal SCSI disks before the external USB storage modules. The link order matters for initcall ordering, and this got broken by mistake by commit 7586269c0b52970f60bb69fcb86e765fc1d72309 which moved the USB host controller PCI quirk handling around.

* NFS: Fix a few further cache consistency regressionsTrond Myklebust2005-12-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Steve Dickson writes: Doing the following: 1. On server: $ mkdir ~/t $ echo Hello > ~/t/tmp 2. On client, wait for a string to appear in this file: $ until grep -q foo t/tmp ; do echo -n . ; sleep 1 ; done 3. On server, create a *new* file with the same name containing that string: $ mv ~/t/tmp ~/t/tmp.old; echo foo > ~/t/tmp will show how the client will never (and I mean never ;-) ) see the updated file. The problem is that we do not update nfsi->cache_change_attribute when the file changes on the server (we only update it when our client makes the changes). This again means that functions like nfs_check_verifier() will fail to register when the parent directory has changed and should trigger a dentry lookup revalidation.

| * [SCSI] sg and st unmap_user_pages allow PageReservedHugh Dickins2005-12-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2.6.15-rc1 made sg's st_unmap_user_pages and st's sgl_unmap_user_pages BUG on a PageReserved page. But that's wrong: they could be unmapping the ZERO_PAGE, which is marked PG_reserved; and perhaps others (while get_user_pages is still permitted on VM_PFNMAP areas - that may change). More change is needed here: sg claims to dirty even pages written from, and st claims not to dirty even pages read into; and SetPageDirty is not adequate for this nowadays. Fixes to those follow in a later patch: for the moment just fix the 2.6.15 regression.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nick and I had already been looking at drivers/scsi/{sg.c,st.c}, brought there by __put_page in sg.c's peculiar sg_rb_correct4mmap, which we'd like to remove. But that's irrelevant to your pain, except... One extract from the patches I'd like to send Doug and Kai for 2.6.15 or 2.6.16 is this below: since the incomplete get_user_pages path omits to reset res, but has already released all the pages, it will result in premature freeing of user pages, and behaviour just like you've seen. Though I'd have thought incomplete get_user_pages was an exceptional case, and a bit surprised you'd encounter it. Perhaps there's some other premature freeing in the driver, and this instance has nothing whatever to do with it. If the problem were easily reproducible, it'd be great if you could try this patch; but I think you've said it's not :-( Signed-off-by: Kai Makisara <kai.makisara@kolumbus.fi> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some SCSI devices apparently get very confused if we try to use the echo buffer on a non-DT negotiated bus (this mirrors the problems of using PPR on non-LVD for some devices).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To transport scsi reset command to device aic7xxx reset handler looks at the driver's pending_list and searches any proper command. However the search condition has been inverted: ahc_match_scb() returns TRUE if a matched command is found.

This is because the last_pkts array is filled with zeros on creation, and when comparing 'now' to 0 (+ --seconds argument), time_before_eq thinks it has found a hit. Below patch adds a break if the packet value is zero. This has the unfortunate side effect of causing mismatches if a packet was received when jiffies really was equal to zero. The odds of that happening are slim compared to the problems caused by not adding the break however. Plus, the author used this same method just below, so it is "good enough".

The reason is that the NFS clients tends to use the same ports (800 and counting down). Now on reboot, the server would still have a TCB for an existing TCP connection client:800 -> server:2049. The client sends a SYN from port 800 to server:2049, which elicits an ACK from the server. The firewall on the client drops the ACK because (from its point of view) the connection is still in half-open state, and it expects to see a SYNACK. The client will eventually time out after several minutes. The following patch corrects this, by accepting ACKs on half open connections as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ARMv6K CPUs have SEV (send event) and WFE (wait for event) instructions which allow the CPU clock to be suspended until another CPU issues a SEV, rather than spinning on the lock wasting power. Make use of these instructions. Note that WFE does not wait if an event has been sent since the last WFE cleared the event status, so although it may look racy, the instruction implementation ensures that these are dealt with.
