* [PATCH] ext2: skip pages past number of blocks in ext2_find_entryEric Sandeen2007-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This one was pointed out on the MOKB site: http://kernelfun.blogspot.com/2006/11/mokb-09-11-2006-linux-26x-ext2checkpage.html If a directory's i_size is corrupted, ext2_find_entry() will keep processing pages until the i_size is reached, even if there are no more blocks associated with the directory inode. This patch puts in some minimal sanity-checking so that we don't keep checking pages (and issuing errors) if we know there can be no more data to read, based on the block count of the directory inode. This is somewhat similar in approach to the ext3 patch I sent earlier this year.

* [PATCH] igrab() should check for I_CLEARJan Blunck2007-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When igrab() is calling __iget() on an inode it should check if clear_inode() has been called on the inode already. Otherwise there is a race window between clear_inode() and destroy_inode() where igrab() calls __iget() which leads to already free inodes on the inode lists.

* [PATCH] uclinux: correctly remap bin_fmtflat exe allocated mem regionsGreg Ungerer2007-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | remap() the region we get from mmap() to mark the fact that we are using all of the available slack space. Any slack space is used to form a simple brk region, and potentially more stack space than requested at load time. Any searches of the vma chain may well fail looking for stack (and especially arg) addresses if the remaping is not done. The simplest example is /proc/<pid>/cmdline, since the args are pretty much always at the top of the data/bss/stack region.

* [PATCH] hugetlb: preserve hugetlb pte dirty stateKen Chen2007-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __unmap_hugepage_range() is buggy that it does not preserve dirty state of huge_pte when unmapping hugepage range. It causes data corruption in the event of dop_caches being used by sys admin. For example, an application creates a hugetlb file, modify pages, then unmap it. While leaving the hugetlb file alive, comes along sys admin doing a "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches". drop_pagecache_sb() will happily free all pages that aren't marked dirty if there are no active mapping. Later when application remaps the hugetlb file back and all data are gone, triggering catastrophic flip over on application. Not only that, the internal resv_huge_pages count will also get all messed up. Fix it up by marking page dirty appropriately.

* [PATCH] ufs: restore back support of openstepEvgeniy Dushistov2007-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a fix of regression, which triggered by ~2.6.16. Patch with name ufs-directory-and-page-cache-from-blocks-to-pages.patch: in additional to conversation from block to page cache mechanism added new checks of directory integrity, one of them that directory entry do not across directory chunks. But some kinds of UFS: OpenStep UFS and Apple UFS (looks like these are the same filesystems) have different directory chunk size, then common UFSes(BSD and Solaris UFS). So this patch adds ability to works with variable size of directory chunks, and set it for ufstype=openstep to right size. Tested on darwin ufs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attributes in configfs are text files. As such, most handlers expect to be able to call functions like simple_strtoul() without checking the bounds of the buffer. Change the call to zero terminate the buffer before calling the client's ->store() method. This does reduce the attribute size from PAGE_SIZE to PAGE_SIZE-1. Also, change get_zeroed_page() to alloc_page(), as we are handling the termination. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As was already pointed out Mathieu Avila on Thu, 07 Sep 2006 03:15:25 -0700 that OCFS2 is expecting bio_add_page() to add pages to BIOs in an easily predictable manner. That is not true, especially for devices with own merge_bvec_fn(). Therefore OCFS2's heartbeat code is very likely to fail on such devices. Move the bio_put() call into the bio's bi_end_io() function. This makes the whole idea of trying to predict the behaviour of bio_add_page() unnecessary.

| * | ocfs2: introduce sc->sc_send_lock to protect outbound outbound messagesZhen Wei2007-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When there is a lot of multithreaded I/O usage, two threads can collide while sending out a message to the other nodes. This is due to the lack of locking between threads while sending out the messages. When a connected TCP send(), sendto(), or sendmsg() arrives in the Linux kernel, it eventually comes through tcp_sendmsg(). tcp_sendmsg() protects itself by acquiring a lock at invocation by calling lock_sock(). tcp_sendmsg() then loops over the buffers in the iovec, allocating associated sk_buff's and cache pages for use in the actual send. As it does so, it pushes the data out to tcp for actual transmission. However, if one of those allocation fails (because a large number of large sends is being processed, for example), it must wait for memory to become available. It does so by jumping to wait_for_sndbuf or wait_for_memory, both of which eventually cause a call to sk_stream_wait_memory(). sk_stream_wait_memory() contains a code path that calls sk_wait_event(). Finally, sk_wait_event() contains the call to release_sock(). The following patch adds a lock to the socket container in order to properly serialize outbound requests.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a small window where a joining node may not see the node(s) that just died but are still part of the domain. To fix this, we must disallow join requests if the joining node has a different node map. A new field node_map is added to dlm_query_join_request to send the current nodes nodemap along with join request. On the receiving end the nodes that are part of the cluster verifies if this new node sees all the nodes that are still part of the cluster. They disallow the join if the maps mismatch.

When implementing a network namespace I need to be able to have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this is a problem for /sys/class/net/*. What I want is a separate /sys/class/net directory in sysfs for each network namespace, and I want to name each of them /sys/class/net. I looked and the VFS actually allows that. All that is needed is for /sys/class/net to implement a follow link method to redirect lookups to the real directory you want. Implementing a follow link method that is sensitive to the current network namespace turns out to be 3 lines of code so it looks like a clean approach. Modifying sysfs so it doesn't get in my was is a bit trickier. I am calling the concept of multiple directories all at the same path in the filesystem shadow directories. With the directory entry really at that location the shadow master. The following patch modifies sysfs so it can handle a directory structure slightly different from the kobject tree so I can implement the shadow directories for handling /sys/class/net/.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch prevents a race between IO and removing a file from sysfs. It introduces a list of sysfs_buffers associated with a file at the inode. Upon removal of a file the list is walked and the buffers marked orphaned. IO to orphaned buffers fails with -ENODEV. The driver can safely free associated data structures or be unloaded.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we allow NULL as the new parent in device_move(), we need to make sure that the device is placed into the same place as it would if it was newly registered: - Consider the device virtual tree. In order to be able to reuse code, setup_parent() has been tweaked a bit. - kobject_move() can fall back to the kset's kobject. - sysfs_move_dir() uses the sysfs root dir as fallback.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | jfs_debug.h uses an incorrect CONFIG_KERNEL_ASSERT ifdef to redefine the assert macro for kgdb use. I believe the code worked a long time ago, but today it's not a valid config option. Since I'm not aware of anybody interested in debugging jfs with kgdb, it should just be removed.

| * | JFS: call io_schedule() instead of schedule() to avoid deadlockDave Kleikamp2007-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The introduction of Jens Axboe's explicit i/o plugging patches introduced a deadlock in jfs. This was caused by the process initiating I/O not unplugging the queue before waiting on the commit thread. The commit thread itself was waiting for that I/O to complete. Calling io_schedule() rather than schedule() unplugs the I/O queue avoiding the deadlock, and it appears to be the right function to call in any case.
