2005-09-14[PATCH] Fix the fdtable freeing in the case of vmalloced fdset/arraysDipankar Sarma
Noted by David Miller: "The bug is that free_fd_array() takes a "num" argument, but when calling it from __free_fdtable() we're instead passing in the size in bytes (ie. "num * sizeof(struct file *)")." Yes it is a bug. I think I messed it up while merging newer changes with an older version where I was using size in bytes to optimize.

2005-09-14[PATCH] Fix slab BUG_ON() triggered by change in array cache sizeAlok Kataria
With the new changes that we made in the initialization of the slab allocator, we first setup the cache from which array caches are allocated, and then the cache, from which kmem_list3's are allocated. Now if the array cache comes from a cache in which objsize > 32, (in this instance size-64) then, first size-64 cache will be allocated and then the size-128 (if this is the cache from which kmem_list3's are going to be allocated). So with these new changes, we are not guaranteed that we will be initializing the malloc_sizes array in a serialized order. Thus there is a bug in __find_general_cachep, as we are checking whether the first cache_sizes ptr is NULL. This is replaced by checking whether the array-cache cache is initialized. Attached is a patch which does that. Boots fine on a x86-64, with DEBUG_SPIN, DEBUG_SLAB, and preempt. Attached is a patch which does that.

2005-09-14[PATCH] yenta oops fixIvan Kokshaysky
In some cases, especially on modern laptops with a lot of PCI and cardbus bridges, we're unable to assign correct secondary/subordinate bus numbers to all cardbus bridges due to BIOS limitations unless we are using "pci=assign-busses" boot option. So some cardbus controllers may not have attached subordinate pci_bus structure, and yenta driver must cope with it - just ignore such cardbus bridges.

2005-09-14[PATCH] error path in setup_arg_pages() misses vm_unacct_memory()Hugh Dickins
Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants). These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't. So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into Committed_AS each time they're run. But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them, it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved. The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set. And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking. Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory: give it a less misleading name later on.

2005-09-14[PATCH] Fix fs/exec.c:788 (de_thread()) BUG_ONAlexander Nyberg
It turns out that the BUG_ON() in fs/exec.c: de_thread() is unreliable and can trigger due to the test itself being racy. de_thread() does while (atomic_read(&sig->count) > count) { } ..... ..... BUG_ON(!thread_group_empty(current)); but release_task does write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock) __exit_signal (this is where atomic_dec(&sig->count) is run) __exit_sighand __unhash_process takes write lock on tasklist_lock remove itself out of PIDTYPE_TGID list write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock) so there's a clear (although small) window between the atomic_dec(&sig->count) and the actual PIDTYPE_TGID unhashing of the thread. And actually there is no need for all threads to have exited at this point, so we simply kill the BUG_ON. Big thanks to Marc Lehmann who provided the test-case.

2005-09-14[PATCH] pci: only call pci_restore_bars at bootJohn W. Linville
Certain (SGI?) ia64 boxes object to having their PCI BARs restored unless absolutely necessary. This patch restricts calling pci_restore_bars from pci_set_power_state unless the current state is PCI_UNKNOWN, the actual (i.e. physical) state of the device is PCI_D3hot, and the device indicates that it will lose its configuration when transitioning to PCI_D0.

In 2.6.13-rcX the MASQUERADE target was changed not to exclude local packets for better source address consistency.

2005-09-13[PATCH] ppc64: Make eeh_init function againPaul Mackerras
My patch "Separate pci bits out of struct device_node" (commit 1635317facea3094ddf34082cd86797efb1d9f7e) had the unfortunate side-effect that it stopped eeh_init() from working correctly. It needs the pointers set up by find_and_init_phbs(), but it was being called just before find_and_init_phbs(). That meant that we didn't enable EEH (pSeries PCI error recovery) on any devices, and that meant that on POWER5 systems, the hypervisor wouldn't let us enable memory or I/O space access to any devices, and their drivers got somewhat confused. This fixes it by moving the eeh_init call after find_and_init_phbs. Tested on a POWER5 partition. Signed-of-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-of-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
