2006-04-14[ATM]: Clip timer race.Stephen Hemminger
By inspection, the clip idle timer code is racy on SMP. Here is a safe version of timer management. Untested, I don't have ATM hardware. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-04-14[ATM]: clip causes unregister hangStephen Hemminger
If Classical IP over ATM module is loaded, its neighbor table gets populated when permanent neighbor entries are created; but these entries are not flushed when the device is removed. Since the entry never gets flushed the unregister of the network device never completes. This version of the patch also adds locking around the reference to the atm arp daemon to avoid races with events and daemon state changes. (Note: barrier() was never really safe) Bug-reference: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6295 Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

This reverts most of commit 30e0fca6c1d7d26f3f2daa4dd2b12c51dadc778a. It broke the case of non-leader MT exec when ptraced.

2006-04-14[PATCH] de_thread: Don't change our parents and ptrace flags.Eric W. Biederman
This is two distinct changes. - Not changing our real parents. - Not changing our ptrace parents. Not changing our real parents is trivially correct because both tasks have the same real parents as they are part of a thread group. Now that we demote the leader to a thread there is no longer any reason to change it's parentage. Not changing our ptrace parents is a user visible change if someone looks hard enough. I don't think user space applications will care or even notice. In the practical and I think common case a debugger will have attached to all of the threads using the same ptrace flags. From my quick skim of strace and gdb that appears to be the case. Which if true means debuggers will not notice a change. Before this point we have already generated a ptrace event in do_exit that reports the leaders pid has died so de_thread is visible to a debugger. Which means attempting to hide this case by copying flags around appears excessive. By not doing anything it avoids all of the weird locking issues between de_thread and ptrace attach, and removes one case from consideration for fixing the ptrace locking. This only addresses Oleg's first concern with ptrace_attach, that of the problems caused by reparenting. Oleg's second concern is essentially a race between ptrace_attach and release_task that causes an oops when we get to force_sig_specific. There is nothing special about de_thread with respect to that race. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-04-13[IA64] Make show_mem() skip holes in a pgdatRobin Holt
This patch modifies ia64's show_mem() to walk the vmem_map page tables and rapidly skip forward across regions where the page tables are missing. This prevents the pfn_valid() check from causing numerous unnecessary page faults. Without this patch on a 512 node 512 cpu system where every node has four memory holes, the show_mem() call takes 1 hour 18 minutes. With this patch, it takes less than 3 seconds.

It incorrectly assumes that all slaves are for MCA, but ia64_wait_for_slaves() is also called from the INIT monarch handler. The existing message is very misleading, so correct it.

2006-04-13[PATCH] do_SAK: Don't recursively take the tasklist_lockEric W. Biederman
By calling send_sig do_SAK is recursively taking the tasklist_lock, which is silly. In addition I just audited the kernel and this was the only place where tasklist_lock is taken inside of task_lock. So this one line change is a general worthwhile cleanup and it increases our options on how to fix the ptrace_attach races. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-04-12IB/mthca: Fix max_srq_sge returned by ib_query_device for Tavor devicesJack Morgenstein
The driver allocates SRQ WQEs size with a power of 2 size both for Tavor and for memfree. For Tavor, however, the hardware only requires the WQE size to be a multiple of 16, not a power of 2, and the max number of scatter-gather allowed is reported accordingly by the firmware (and this is the value currently returned by ib_query_device() and ibv_query_device()). If the max number of scatter/gather entries reported by the FW is used when creating an SRQ, the creation will fail for Tavor, since the required WQE size will be increased to the next power of 2, which turns out to be larger than the device permitted max WQE size (which is not a power of 2). This patch reduces the reported SRQ max wqe size so that it can be used successfully in creating an SRQ on Tavor HCAs.
