* [PATCH] set mnt_namespace in the correct placeMiklos Szeredi2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch sets ->mnt_namespace where it's actually added to the namespace. Previously mnt_namespace was set in do_kern_mount() even if the filesystem was never added to any process's namespace (most kernel-internal filesystems). This discrepancy doesn't actually cause any problems, but it's cleaner if mnt_namespace is NULL for these non exported filesystems.

* [PATCH] namespace.c: fix mnt_namespace zeroing for expired mountsMiklos Szeredi2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch clears mnt_namespace in an expired mount. If mnt_namespace is not cleared, it's possible to attach a new mount to the already detached mount, because check_mnt() can return true. The effect is a resource leak, since the resulting tree will never be freed.

* [PATCH] namespace.c: fix expiring of detached mountMiklos Szeredi2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug noticed by Al Viro: However, we still have a problem here - just what would happen if vfsmount is detached while we were grabbing namespace semaphore? Refcount alone is not useful here - we might be held by whoever had detached the vfsmount. IOW, we should check that it's still attached (i.e. that mnt->mnt_parent != mnt). If it's not - just leave it alone, do mntput() and let whoever holds it deal with the sucker. No need to put it back on lists.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch simplifies mark_mounts_for_expiry() by using detach_mnt() instead of duplicating everything it does.

* [PATCH] namespace.c: fix race in mark_mounts_for_expiry()Miklos Szeredi2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a race found by Ram in mark_mounts_for_expiry() in fs/namespace.c. The bug can only be triggered with simultaneous exiting of a process having a private namespace, and expiry of a mount from within that namespace. It's practically impossible to trigger, and I haven't even tried. But still, a bug is a bug. The race happens when put_namespace() is called by another task, while mark_mounts_for_expiry() is between atomic_read() and get_namespace(). In that case get_namespace() will be called on an already dead namespace with unforeseeable results. The solution was suggested by Al Viro, with his own words: Instead of screwing with atomic_read() in there, why don't we simply do the following: a) atomic_dec_and_lock() in put_namespace() b) __put_namespace() called without dropping lock c) the first thing done by __put_namespace would be struct vfsmount *root = namespace->root; namespace->root = NULL; spin_unlock(...); .... umount_tree(root); ... d) check in mark_... would be simply namespace && namespace->root. And we are all set; no screwing around with atomic_read(), no magic at all. Dying namespace gets NULL ->root. All changes of ->root happen under spinlock. If under a spinlock we see non-NULL ->mnt_namespace, it won't be freed until we drop the lock (we will set ->mnt_namespace to NULL under that lock before we get to freeing namespace). If under a spinlock we see non-NULL ->mnt_namespace and ->mnt_namespace->root, we can grab a reference to namespace and be sure that it won't go away.

* [PATCH] namespace.c: fix mnt_namespace clearingMiklos Szeredi2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch clears mnt_namespace on unmount. Not clearing mnt_namespace has two effects: 1) It is possible to attach a new mount to a detached mount, because check_mnt() returns true. This means, that when no other references to the detached mount remain, it still can't be freed. This causes a resource leak, and possibly un-removable modules. 2) If mnt_namespace is dereferenced (only in mark_mounts_for_expiry()) after the namspace has been freed, it can cause an Oops, memory corruption, etc. 1) has been tested before and after the patch, 2) is only speculation.

* [PATCH] IB uverbs: core API extensionsRoland Dreier2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First of a series of patches which add support for direct userspace access to InfiniBand hardware -- so-called "userspace verbs." I believe these patches are ready to merge, but a final review would be useful. These patches should incorporate all of the feedback from the discussion when I posted an earlier version back in April (see http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/4/4/267 for the start of the thread). In particular, memory pinned for use by userspace is accounted for in current->mm->vm_locked and requests to pin memory are checked against RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. This patch: Modify the ib_verbs.h header file with changes required for InfiniBand userspace verbs support. We add a few structures to keep track of userspace context, and extend the driver API so that low-level drivers know when they're creating resources that will be used from userspace.

* [PATCH] tty output lossage fixRoman Zippel2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch fixes a few corner cases around tty line editing with very long input lines: - n_tty_receive_char(): don't simply drop eol characters, otherwise canon_data isn't increased and the reader isn't woken up. - n_tty_receive_room(): If there is no newline pending and the edit buffer is full, allow only a single character to be written (until eol is found and the line is flushed), so characters from the next line aren't dropped. - write_chan(): if an incomplete line was written, continue writing until write() returns 0, otherwise it might not write the eol character to flush the line and the writer goes to sleep without ever being woken up. BTW the core problem is that part of this should be handled in the receive_buf path, but for this it has to return the number of written characters, as the amount of written characters may not be the same as the amount of characters going into the write buffer, so the receive_room() usage in pty_write() is not really reliable. Alan said: The problem looks valid. The behaviour of 'traditional unix' appears to be the following If you exceed the line limit then beep and drop the character Always allow EOL to complete a canonical line input Always do signal/control processing if enabled Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] xtensa: remove old syscallsArnd Bergmann2005-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xtensa is now in -rc1, with the obsolete syscalls still in there, so I guess this about the last chance to correct the ABI. Applying the patch obviously breaks all sorts of user space binaries and probably also requires the appropriate changes to be made to libc. On the other hand, if a decision is made to keep the broken interface, it should at least be a conscious one instead of an oversight.
