2008-04-10HFS+: fix unlink of linksRoman Zippel1-8/+15
Some time ago while attempting to handle invalid link counts, I botched the unlink of links itself, so this patch fixes this now correctly, so that only the link count of nodes that don't point to links is ignored. Thanks to Vlado Plaga <rechner@vlado-do.de> to notify me of this problem. Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-04-09pop previous section in alternative.cSteven Rostedt1-4/+8
gcc expects all toplevel assembly to return to the original section type. The code in alteranative.c does not do this. This caused some strange bugs in sched-devel where code would end up in the .rodata section and when the kernel sets the NX bit on all .rodata, the kernel would crash when executing this code. This patch adds a .previous marker to return the code back to the original section. Credit goes to Andrew Pinski for telling me it wasn't a gcc bug but a bug in the toplevel asm code in the kernel. ;-) Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-04-10SELinux: don't BUG if fs reuses a superblockEric Paris1-4/+4
I (wrongly) assumed that nfs_xdev_get_sb() would not ever share a superblock and so cloning mount options would always be correct. Turns out that isn't the case and we could fall over a BUG_ON() that wasn't a BUG at all. Since there is little we can do to reconcile different mount options this patch just leaves the sb alone and the first set of options wins.

2008-04-08es1968: fix sleep-while-holding-lock bugArjan van de Ven1-1/+13
snd_es1968_ac97_read() calls snd_es1968_ac97_wait() first outside a locked area, and later, while holding a lock. snd_es1968_ac97_wait() has a polling loop with a cond_resched() inside it.. which sleeps, so the second call is invalid. This patch adds a version of the wait function that just pure polls. While this is not very elegant in principle, it's very likely the easiest thing to do here, we already checked if the chip was ready (while yielding) just before, so it is very unlikely to take a long time here.

2008-04-08memcg: fix node_state handlingKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki1-5/+4
This should be N_NORMAL_MEMORY. N_NORMAL_MEMORY is "true" if a node has memory for the kernel. N_HIGH_MEMORY is "true" if a node has memory for HIGHMEM. (If CONFIG_HIGHMEM=n, always "true") This check is used for testing whether we can use kmalloc_node() on a node. Then, if there is a node which only contains HIGHMEM, the system will call kmalloc_node() which doesn't contain memory for the kernel. If it happens under SLUB, the kernel will panic. I think this only happens on x86_32-numa.

2008-04-08ub: remove BUG() after __blk_end_request and fix the condition causing itPete Zaitcev1-9/+29
When __blk_end_request returns nonzero, it means that the request was not completely processed and some BIOs are still attached. Since we have dequeued it by that time, it means leaking requests and hanging processes, which is why BUG() was in there. In ub this happens if a packet request ends normally, but with residue (e.g. when scsi_id issues INQUIRY). The fix is to make sure that arguments passed to __blk_end_request are correct: the full request length and not just transferred length. The transferred length is indicated to applications by adjusting rq->data_len with old, unchanged code outside of this patch.

Fix kernel oops due to machine check occuring in init_chipset_siimage() on PPC 44x platforms. These 32-bit CPUs have 36-bit physical address and PCI I/O and memory spaces are mapped beyond 4 GB; arch/ppc/ code has a fixup in ioremap() that creates an illusion of the PCI I/O and memory resources being mapped below 4 GB, while arch/powerpc/ code got rid of this fixup with PPC 44x having instead CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT=y -- this causes the resources to be truncated to 32-bit 'unsigned long' type in this driver, and so non-existant memory being ioremap'ed and then accessed...

The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host we don't need callbacks now. As it is not reliable, the debug check is overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time. Document this. Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance protection can be easily tripped even on UP.

2008-04-07x86: fix 64-bit asm NOPS for CONFIG_GENERIC_CPUSuresh Siddha1-10/+10
ASM_NOP's for 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is broken with the recent x86 nops merge. They were using GENERIC_NOPS which will truncate the upper 32bits of %rsi, because of the missing 64bit rex prefix. For now, fall back ASM NOPS for generic cpu to K8 NOPS, similar to the code before the wrong x86 nop merge.

2008-04-06Fix booting pentium+ with dodgy TSCRusty Russell1-8/+0
We handle a broken tsc these days, so no need to panic. We clear the TSC bit when tsc_init decides it's unreliable (eg. under lguest w/ bad host TSC), leading to bogus panic.

2008-04-06fix IS_I9XX macro in i915 DRM driverJesse Barnes1-2/+2
Now that we're mapping registers in the DRM driver at load time, the driver actually checks the PCI ID, so we need to make sure the macros have all the right bits (and longer term use the DRM headers as the sole copy of the PCI & register definitions). This patch adds 945GME support to the DRM headers, fixing a regression reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10395.

2008-04-06scsi: fix sense_slab/bio swapping livelockHugh Dickins1-10/+12
Since 2.6.25-rc7, I've been seeing an occasional livelock on one x86_64 machine, copying kernel trees to tmpfs, paging out to swap. Signature: 6000 pages under writeback but never getting written; most tasks of interest trying to reclaim, but each get_swap_bio waiting for a bio in mempool_alloc's io_schedule_timeout(5*HZ); every five seconds an atomic page allocation failure report from kblockd failing to allocate a sense_buffer in __scsi_get_command. __scsi_get_command has a (one item) free_list to protect against this, but rc1's [SCSI] use dynamically allocated sense buffer de25deb18016f66dcdede165d07654559bb332bc upset that slightly. When it fails to allocate from the separate sense_slab, instead of giving up, it must fall back to the command free_list, which is sure to have a sense_buffer attached. Either my earlier -rc testing missed this, or there's some recent contributory factor. One very significant factor is SLUB, which merges slab caches when it can, and on 64-bit happens to merge both bio cache and sense_slab cache into kmalloc's 128-byte cache: so that under this swapping load, bios above are liable to gobble up all the slots needed for scsi_cmnd sense_buffers below. That's disturbing behaviour, and I tried a few things to fix it. Adding a no-op constructor to the sense_slab inhibits SLUB from merging it, and stops all the allocation failures I was seeing; but it's rather a hack, and perhaps in different configurations we have other caches on the swapout path which are ill-merged. Another alternative is to revert the separate sense_slab, using cache-line-aligned sense_buffer allocated beyond scsi_cmnd from the one kmem_cache; but that might waste more memory, and is only a way of diverting around the known problem. While I don't like seeing the allocation failures, and hate the idea of all those bios piled up above a scsi host working one by one, it does seem to emerge fairly soon with the livelock fix. So lacking better ideas, stick with that one clear fix for now.

2008-04-06[WATCHDOG] it8712f_wdt Zero MSB timeout byte when disabling watchdogAndrew Paprocki1-0/+2
I noticed this while testing the latest code. I'm not sure if it is required, but the normal (or LSB) timeout value is set to zero, so the MSB should be as well to stay consistent. If the chip revision is >= 8, set MSB of the 16-bit timeout value to zero when disabling the watchdog in it8712f_wdt_disable().
