| * [CIFS] Incorrect signature sent on SMB ReadSteve French2006-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes Samba bug 3621 and kernel.org bug 6147 For servers which require SMB/CIFS packet signing, we were sending the wrong signature (all zeros) on SMB Read request. The new cifs routine to do signatures across an iovec was not complete - and SMB Read, unlike the new SMBWrite2, did not fall back to the older routine (ie use SendReceive vs. the more efficient SendReceive2 ie used the older cifs_sign_smb vs. the disabled cifs_sign_smb2) for calculating signatures. This finishes up cifs_sign_smb2/cifs_calc_signature2 so that the callers of SendReceive2 can get SMB/CIFS packet signatures. Now that cifs_sign_smb2 is supported, we could start using it in the write path but this smaller fix does not include the change to use SMBWrite2 when signatures are required (which when enabled will make more Writes more efficient and alloc less memory). Currently Write2 is only used when signatures are not required at the moment but after more testing we will enable that as well). Thanks to James Slepicka and Sam Flory for initial investigation.

This new session setup implmentation will eventually replace the other three and should be easier to read while fixing a few minor problems (not setting the LARGE READ/WRITEX flags when NTLMSSP was negotiated for example) and adding support for NTLMv2 (which will be added with the next patch. In the meantime, this code is marked in an CONFIG_CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL block and will not be turned on by default until it is tested against more server types.

Thread 1 Thread 2 sys_flock(file, LOCK_EX) sys_flock(file, LOCK_UN) If Thread 2 removes the lock from inode->i_lock before Thread 1 tests for list_empty(&lock->fl_link) at the end of sys_flock, then both threads will end up calling locks_free_lock for the same lock. Fix is to make flock_lock_file() do the same as posix_lock_file(), namely to make a copy of the request, so that the caller can always free the lock. This also has the side-effect of fixing up a reference problem in the lockd handling of flock.

Reasons: - It's more flexible. Things which would require two or three syscalls with fadvise() can be done in a single syscall. - Using fadvise() in this manner is something not covered by POSIX. The patch wires up the syscall for x86. The sycall is implemented in the new fs/sync.c. The intention is that we can move sys_fsync(), sys_fdatasync() and perhaps sys_sync() into there later. Documentation for the syscall is in fs/sync.c. A test app (sync_file_range.c) is in http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/ext3-tools.tar.gz. The available-to-GPL-modules do_sync_file_range() is for knfsd: "A COMMIT can say NFS_DATA_SYNC or NFS_FILE_SYNC. I can skip the ->fsync call for NFS_DATA_SYNC which is hopefully the more common." Note: the `async' writeout mode SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE will turn synchronous if the queue is congested. This is trivial to fix: add a new flag bit, set wbc->nonblocking. But I'm not sure that we want to expose implementation details down to that level. Note: it's notable that we can sync an fd which wasn't opened for writing. Same with fsync() and fdatasync()). Note: the code takes some care to handle attempts to sync file contents outside the 16TB offset on 32-bit machines. It makes such attempts appear to succeed, for best 32-bit/64-bit compatibility. Perhaps it should make such requests fail...

Based on the proven design for /proc/interrupts. This also fixes the early-termination regression 2.6.16 introduced, as demonstrated by: # dd if=/proc/devices bs=1 Character devices: 1 mem 27+0 records in 27+0 records out This should also work (but is untested) when /proc/devices >4096 bytes, which I believe is what the original 2.6.16 rewrite fixed.

* | | | | | | | | | [PATCH] Introduce sys_splice() system callJens Axboe2006-03-30

Using a pipe as a transport, it can connect to files or sockets (latter as output only). From the splice.c comments: "splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands. This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other. The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer. Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by Jens to support splicing to files and fixing the initial implementation bugs.

With this, board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine. We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of _machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants. This commit also changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at _machine.

That's generally ok, except for when we export the device tree via /proc, so check when we're creating the proc device tree and munge names accordingly. Tested on a faked device tree with kexec, would be good if someone with actual bogus firmware could try it, but just for completeness.
