2008-10-06[Bluetooth] Add reset quirk for A-Link BlueUSB21 dongleMarcel Holtmann
The new A-Link Bluetooth dongle is another one based on the BCM2046 chip from Broadcom and it also needs to send HCI_Reset before it becomes fully operational. Without the quirk it will show a lot of I/O errors. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2008-09-29mm owner: fix race between swapoff and exitBalbir Singh
There's a race between mm->owner assignment and swapoff, more easily seen when task slab poisoning is turned on. The condition occurs when try_to_unuse() runs in parallel with an exiting task. A similar race can occur with callers of get_task_mm(), such as /proc/<pid>/<mmstats> or ptrace or page migration. CPU0 CPU1 try_to_unuse looks at mm = task0->mm increments mm->mm_users task 0 exits mm->owner needs to be updated, but no new owner is found (mm_users > 1, but no other task has task->mm = task0->mm) mm_update_next_owner() leaves mmput(mm) decrements mm->mm_users task0 freed dereferencing mm->owner fails The fix is to notify the subsystem via mm_owner_changed callback(), if no new owner is found, by specifying the new task as NULL. Jiri Slaby: mm->owner was set to NULL prior to calling cgroup_mm_owner_callbacks(), but must be set after that, so as not to pass NULL as old owner causing oops. Daisuke Nishimura: mm_update_next_owner() may set mm->owner to NULL, but mem_cgroup_from_task() and its callers need to take account of this situation to avoid oops. Hugh Dickins: Lockdep warning and hang below exec_mmap() when testing these patches. exit_mm() up_reads mmap_sem before calling mm_update_next_owner(), so exec_mmap() now needs to do the same. And with that repositioning, there's now no point in mm_need_new_owner() allowing for NULL mm.

2008-09-29Fix NULL pointer dereference in proc_sys_compareLinus Torvalds
The VFS interface for the 'd_compare()' is a bit special (read: 'odd'), because it really just essentially replaces a memcmp(). The filesystem is supposed to just compare the two names with whatever case-independent or other function. And when I say 'is supposed to', I obviously mean that 'procfs does odd things, and actually looks at the dentry that we don't even pass down, rather than just the name'. Which results in problems, because we actually call d_compare before we have even verified that the dentry is still hashed at all. And that causes a problm since the inode that procfs looks at may have been free'd and the d_inode pointer is NULL. procfs just assumes that all dentries are positive, since procfs itself never generates a negative one. But memory pressure will still result in the dentry getting torn down, and as it is removed by RCU, it still remains visible on some lists - and to d_compare. If the filesystem just did a name comparison, we wouldn't care. And we could just fix procfs to know about negative dentries too. But rather than have the low-level filesystems know about internal VFS details, just move the check for a unhashed dentry up a bit, so that we will only call d_compare on dentries that are still active. The actual oops this caused didn't look like a NULL pointer dereference because procfs did a 'container_of(inode, struct proc_inode, vfs_inode)' to get at its internal proc_inode information from the inode pointer, and accessed a field below the inode. So the oops would look something like BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffffffffff0 IP: [<ffffffff802bc6c6>] proc_sys_compare+0x36/0x50 and was seen on both x86-64 (Alexey Dobriyan and Hugh Dickins) and ppc64 (Hugh Dickins).

2008-09-29ALSA: make the CS4270 driver a new-style I2C driverTimur Tabi
Update the CS4270 ALSA device driver to use the new-style I2C interface. Starting with the 2.6.27 PowerPC kernel, I2C devices that have entries in the device trees can no longer be probed by old-style I2C drivers. The device tree for Freescale MPC8610 HPCD has included an entry for the CS4270 since 2.6.25, but that entry was previously ignored by the PowerPC I2C subsystem. Since that's no longer the case, the best solution is to update the CS4270 driver to a new-style interface, rather than try to revert the behavior of new PowerPC I2C subsystem.

2008-09-26kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single steppingJason Wessel
On the x86 arch, user space single step exceptions should be ignored if they occur in the kernel space, such as ptrace stepping through a system call. First check if it is kgdb that is executing a single step, then ensure it is not an accidental traversal into the user space, while in kgdb, any other time the TIF_SINGLESTEP is set, kgdb should ignore the exception. On x86, arm, mips and powerpc, the kgdb_contthread usage was inconsistent with the way single stepping is implemented in the kgdb core. The arch specific stub should always set the kgdb_cpu_doing_single_step correctly if it is single stepping. This allows kgdb to correctly process an instruction steps if ptrace happens to be requesting an instruction step over a system call. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>

2008-09-26[XFS] Remove xfs_iext_irec_compact_full()Lachlan McIlroy
Yet another bug was found in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and while the source of the bug was found it wasn't an easy task to track it down because the conditions are very difficult to reproduce. A HUGE thank-you goes to Russell Cattelan and Eric Sandeen for their significant effort in tracking down the source of this corruption. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() are almost identical - they both compact indirect extent lists by moving extents from subsequent buffers into earlier ones. xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() only moves extents if all of the extents in the next buffer will fit into the empty space in the buffer before it. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() will go a step further and move part of the next buffer if all the extents wont fit. It will then shift the remaining extents in the next buffer up to the start of the buffer. The bug here was that we did not update er_extoff and this caused extent list corruption. It does not appear that this extra functionality gains us much. Calling xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() instead will do a good enough job at compacting the indirect list and will be quicker too. For the case in xfs_iext_indirect_to_direct() the total number of extents in the indirect list will fit into one buffer so we will never need the extra functionality of xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() there. Also xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() doesn't need to do a memmove() (the buffers will never overlap) so we don't want the performance hit that can incur.

2008-09-25IPoIB: Fix crash when path record fails after path flushRoland Dreier
Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM change events") changed how paths are flushed on an SM event. This change introduces a problem if the path record query triggered by fails, causing path->ah to become NULL. A later successful path query will then trigger WARN_ON() in path_rec_completion(), and crash because path->ah has already been freed, so the ipoib_put_ah() inside the lock in path_rec_completion() may actually drop the last reference (contrary to the comment that claims this is safe). Fix this by updating path->ah and freeing old_ah only when the path record query is successful. This prevents the neighbour AH and that path AH from getting out of sync.
