* memcg: fix possible panic when CONFIG_MM_OWNER=yKOSAKI Motohiro2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When mm destruction happens, we should pass mm_update_next_owner() the old mm. But unfortunately new mm is passed in exec_mmap(). Thus, kernel panic is possible when a multi-threaded process uses exec(). Also, the owner member comment description is wrong. mm->owner does not necessarily point to the thread group leader.

* spi_mpc83xx: much improved driverJoakim Tjernlund2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current driver may cause glitches on SPI CLK line since one must disable the SPI controller before changing any HW settings. Fix this by implementing a local spi_transfer function that won't change speed and/or word size while CS is active. While doing that heavy lifting a few other issues were addressed too: - Make word size 16 and 32 work too. - Honor bits_per_word and speed_hz in spi transaction. - Optimize the common path. This also stops using the "bitbang" framework (except for a few constants).

* rtc: rtc_time_to_tm: use unsigned arithmeticMaciej W. Rozycki2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The input argument to rtc_time_to_tm() is unsigned as well as are members of the output structure. However signed arithmetic is used within for calculations leading to incorrect results for input values outside the signed positive range. If this happens the time of day returned is out of range. Found the problem when fiddling with the RTC and the driver where year was set to an unexpectedly large value like 2070, e.g.: rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 1193046:71582832:26 UTC (3155760954) while it should be: rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 00:15:54 UTC (3155760954) Changing types to unsigned fixes the problem.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix an oops with a corrupted hfs+ image. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10548 for details. Problem is that we call hfs_btree_open() from hfsplus_fill_super() to set HFSPLUS_SB(sb).[ext_tree|cat_tree] Both trees are still NULL at this moment. If hfs_btree_open() fails for any reason it calls iput() on the page, which gets to hfsplus_releasepage() which tries to access HFSPLUS_SB(sb).* which is still NULL and oopses while dereferencing it.

* drivers/video/pnx4008: eliminate double freeJulia Lawall2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function framebuffer_release just calls kfree, so calling kfree subsequently on the same argument represents a double free. The comments with the definition of framebuffer_release in drivers/video/fbsysfs.c suggest that a more elaborate definition of this function is planned, such that the splitting up of framebuffer_release and kfree as done in the second instance might someday make sense, but it does not make sense now. This was found using the following semantic match.

* md: fix raid5 'repair' operationsDan Williams2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit bd2ab67030e9116f1e4aae1289220255412b37fd "md: close a livelock window in handle_parity_checks5" introduced a bug in handling 'repair' operations. After a repair operation completes we clear the state bits tracking this operation. However, they are cleared too early and this results in the code deciding to re-run the parity check operation. Since we have done the repair in memory the second check does not find a mismatch and thus does not do a writeback. Test results: $ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action $ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt 51072 $ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action $ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt 0 (also fix incorrect indentation) Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Tested-by: George Spelvin <linux@horizon.com> Acked-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* uml: random driver fixesJeff Dike2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The random driver would essentially hang if the host's /dev/random returned -EAGAIN. There was a test of need_resched followed by a schedule inside the loop, but that didn't help and it's the wrong way to work anyway. The right way is to ask for an interrupt when there is input available from the host and handle it then rather than polling. Now, when the host's /dev/random returns -EAGAIN, the driver asks for a wakeup when there's randomness available again and sleeps. The interrupt routine just wakes up whatever processes are sleeping on host_read_wait. There is an atomic_t, host_sleep_count, which counts the number of processes waiting for randomness. When this reaches zero, the interrupt is disabled. An added complication is that async I/O notification was only recently added to /dev/random (by me), so essentially all hosts will lack it. So, we use the sigio workaround here, which is to have a separate thread poll on the descriptor and send an interrupt when there is input on it. This mechanism is activated when a process gets -EAGAIN (activating this multiple times is harmless, if a bit wasteful) and deactivated by the last process still waiting. The module name was changed from "random" to "hw_random" in order for udev to recognize it. The sigio workaround needed some changes. sigio_broken was added for cases when we know that async notification doesn't work. This is now called from maybe_sigio_broken, which deals with pts devices.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UML's supposed nanosecond clock interacts badly with NTP when NTP decides that the clock has drifted ahead and needs to be slowed down. Slowing down the clock is done by decrementing the cycle-to-nanosecond multiplier, which is 1. Decrementing that gives you 0 and time is stopped. This is fixed by switching to a microsecond clock, with a multiplier of 1000.

* uml: fix build when SLOB is enabledJeff Dike2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reintroduce uml_kmalloc for the benefit of UML libc code. The previous tactic of declaring __kmalloc so it could be called directly from the libc side of the house turned out to be getting too intimate with slab, and it doesn't work with slob. So, the uml_kmalloc wrapper is back. It calls kmalloc or whatever that translates into, and libc code calls it. kfree is left alone since that still works, leaving a somewhat inconsistent API.

* uml: redo host capability detection and disablingJeff Dike2008-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Redo how host capabilities are recorded at startup and disabled on the command line. There are now explicit variables saying what's been disabled by the command line rather than the implicitness of the have_* variable being zero. The capability variables now start at zero and are set to one as their capabilities are found to be present on the host.

* Make 'cond_resched()' nullification depend on PREEMPT_BKLLinus Torvalds2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is obviously not the point of it at all). Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier, so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing the wrong thing. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cifs_demultiplex_thread can exit under several conditions: 1) if it's signaled 2) if there's a problem with session setup 3) if kthread_stop is called on it The first two are problems. If kthread_stop is called on the thread, there is no guarantee that it will still be up. We need to have the thread stay up until kthread_stop is called on it. One option would be to not even try to tear things down until after kthread_stop is called. However, in the case where there is a problem setting up the session, there's no real reason to try continuing the loop. This patch allows the thread to clean up and prepare for exit under all three conditions, but it has the thread go to sleep until kthread_stop is called. This allows us to simplify the shutdown code somewhat since we can be reasonably sure that the thread won't exit after being signaled but before kthread_stop is called. It also removes the places where the thread itself set the tsk variable since it appeared that it could have a potential race where the thread might never be shut down.
