2007-11-19[TCP]: Problem bug with sysctl_tcp_congestion_control functionSam Jansen
From: "Sam Jansen" <sjansen@google.com> sysctl_tcp_congestion_control seems to have a bug that prevents it from actually calling the tcp_set_default_congestion_control function. This is not so apparent because it does not return an error and generally the /proc interface is used to configure the default TCP congestion control algorithm. This is present in 2.6.18 onwards and probably earlier, though I have not inspected 2.6.15--2.6.17. sysctl_tcp_congestion_control calls sysctl_string and expects a successful return code of 0. In such a case it actually sets the congestion control algorithm with tcp_set_default_congestion_control. Otherwise, it returns the value returned by sysctl_string. This was correct in 2.6.14, as sysctl_string returned 0 on success. However, sysctl_string was updated to return 1 on success around about 2.6.15 and sysctl_tcp_congestion_control was not updated. Even though sysctl_tcp_congestion_control returns 1, do_sysctl_strategy converts this return code to '0', so the caller never notices the error. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When the abstraction functions got added, conversion here was made incorrectly. As a result, the skb may end up pointing to skb which got included to the probe skb and then was freed.

2007-11-19[PKTGEN]: Fix double unlock of xfrm_state->lockPavel Emelyanov
The pktgen_output_ipsec() function can unlock this lock twice due to merged error and plain paths. Remove one of the calls to spin_unlock. Other possible solution would be to place "return 0" right after the first unlock, but at this place the err is known to be 0, so these solutions are the same except for this one makes the code shorter.

2007-11-19[IPVS]: Fix sysctl warnings about missing strategyChristian Borntraeger
Running the latest git code I get the following messages during boot: sysctl table check failed: /net/ipv4/vs/drop_entry .3.5.21.4 Missing strategy [...] sysctl table check failed: /net/ipv4/vs/drop_packet .3.5.21.5 Missing strategy [...] sysctl table check failed: /net/ipv4/vs/secure_tcp .3.5.21.6 Missing strategy [...] sysctl table check failed: /net/ipv4/vs/sync_threshold .3.5.21.24 Missing strategy I removed the binary sysctl handler for those messages and also removed the definitions in ip_vs.h. The alternative would be to implement a proper strategy handler, but syscall sysctl is deprecated. There are other sysctl definitions that are commented out or work with the default sysctl_data strategy. I did not touch these.

2007-11-18[TCP]: Fix TCP header misalignmentHerbert Xu
Indeed my previous change to alloc_pskb has made it possible for the TCP header to be misaligned iff the MTU is not a multiple of 4 (and less than a page). So I suspect the optimised IPsec MTU calculation is giving you just such an MTU :) This patch fixes it by changing alloc_pskb to make sure that the size is at least 32-bit aligned. This does not cause the problem fixed by the previous patch because max_header is always 32-bit aligned which means that in the SG/NOTSO case this will be a no-op. I thought about putting this in the callers but all the current callers are from TCP. If and when we get a non-TCP caller we can always create a TCP wrapper for this function and move the alignment over there.

So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel no matter what the configuration says. The configuration will be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the other way around. This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no suprises here. make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit and 64-bit using menuconfig.

2007-11-17x86: fix reboot with no keyboard attachedTruxton Fulton
Attempt to fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8378 Hiroto Shibuya wrote to tell me that he has a VIA EPIA-EK10000 which suffers from the reboot problem when no keyboard is attached. My first patch works for him: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=59f4e7d572980a521b7bdba74ab71b21f5995538 But the latest patch does not work for him : http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=8b93789808756bcc1e5c90c99f1b1ef52f839a51 We found that it was necessary to also set the "disable keyboard" flag in the command byte, as the first patch was doing. The second patch tries to minimally modify the command byte, but it is not enough. Please consider this simple one-line patch to help people with low end VIA motherboards reboot when no keyboard is attached. Hiroto Shibuya has verified that this works for him (as I no longer have an afflicted machine). Additional discussion: Note that original patch from Truxton DOES disable keyboard and this has been in main tree since 2.6.14, thus it must have quite a bit of air time already. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.14.y.git;a=commit;h=59f4e7d572980a521b7bdba74ab71b21f5995538 Note that he only mention "System flag" in the description and comment, but in the code, "disable keyboard" flag is set. outb(0x14, 0x60); /* set "System flag" */ In 2.6.23, he made a change to read the current byte and then mask the flags, but along this change, he only set the "System flag" and dropped the setting of "disable keyboard" flag. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.23.y.git;a=commit;h=8b93789808756bcc1e5c90c99f1b1ef52f839a51 outb(cmd | 0x04, 0x60); /* set "System flag" */ So my request is to restore the setting of disable keyboard flag which has been there since 2.6.14 but disappeared in 2.6.23.

2007-11-17x86: on x86_64, correct reading of PC RTC when update in progress in time_64.cDavid P. Reed
Correct potentially unstable PC RTC time register reading in time_64.c Stop the use of an incorrect technique for reading the standard PC RTC timer, which is documented to "disconnect" time registers from the bus while updates are in progress. The use of UIP flag while interrupts are disabled to protect a 244 microsecond window is one of the Motorola spec sheet's documented ways to read the RTC time registers reliably. tglx: removed locking changes from original patch, as they gain nothing (read_persistent_clock is only called during boot, suspend, resume - so no hot path affected) and conflict with the paravirt locking scheme (see 32bit code), which we do not want to complicate for no benefit.

2007-11-17x86: fix freeze in x86_64 RTC update code in time_64.cDavid P. Reed
Fix hard freeze on x86_64 when the ntpd service calls update_persistent_clock() A repeatable but randomly timed freeze has been happening in Fedora 6 and 7 for the last year, whenever I run the ntpd service on my AMD64x2 HP Pavilion dv9000z laptop. This freeze is due to the use of spin_lock(&rtc_lock) under the assumption (per a bad comment) that set_rtc_mmss is called only with interrupts disabled. The call from ntp.c to update_persistent_clock is made with interrupts enabled. Signed-off-by: David P. Reed <dpreed@reed.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2007-11-17ntp: fix typo that makes sync_cmos_clock erraticDavid P. Reed
Fix a typo in ntp.c that has caused updating of the persistent (RTC) clock when synced to NTP to behave erratically. When debugging a freeze that arises on my AMD64 machines when I run the ntpd service, I added a number of printk's to monitor the sync_cmos_clock procedure. I discovered that it was not syncing to cmos RTC every 11 minutes as documented, but instead would keep trying every second for hours at a time. The reason turned out to be a typo in sync_cmos_clock, where it attempts to ensure that update_persistent_clock is called very close to 500 msec. after a 1 second boundary (required by the PC RTC's spec). That typo referred to "xtime" in one spot, rather than "now", which is derived from "xtime" but not equal to it. This makes the test erratic, creating a "coin-flip" that decides when update_persistent_clock is called - when it is called, which is rarely, it may be at any time during the one second period, rather than close to 500 msec, so the value written is needlessly incorrect, too.

2007-11-17x86: fix cpu-hotplug regressionAndreas Herrmann
Commit d435d862baca3e25e5eec236762a43251b1e7ffc ("cpu hotplug: mce: fix cpu hotplug error handling") changed the error handling in mce_cpu_callback. In cases where not all CPUs are brought up during boot (e.g. using maxcpus and additional_cpus parameters) mce_cpu_callback now returns NOTFIY_BAD because for such CPUs cpu_data is not completely filled when the notifier is called. Thus mce_create_device fails right at its beginning: if (!mce_available(&cpu_data[cpu])) return -EIO; As a quick fix I suggest to check boot_cpu_data for MCE. To reproduce this regression: (1) boot with maxcpus=2 addtional_cpus=2 on a 4 CPU x86-64 system (2) # echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument dmesg shows: _cpu_up: attempt to bring up CPU 2 failed Signed-off-by: Andreas Herrmann <andreas.herrmann3@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

This code harks back to the days when we didn't count dirty mapped pages, which led us to try to balance the number of dirty unmapped pages by how much unmapped memory there was in the system. That makes no sense any more, since now the dirty counts include the mapped pages. Not to mention that the math doesn't work with HIGHMEM machines anyway, and causes the unmapped_ratio to potentially turn negative (which we do catch thanks to clamping it at a minimum value, but I mention that as an indication of how broken the code is). The code also was written at a time when the default dirty ratio was much larger, and the unmapped_ratio logic effectively capped that large dirty ratio a bit. Again, we've since lowered the dirty ratio rather aggressively, further lessening the point of that code.

2007-11-15[NETFILTER]: Fix NULL pointer dereference in nf_nat_move_storage()Evgeniy Polyakov
Reported by Chuck Ebbert as: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=259501#c14 This routine is called each time hash should be replaced, nf_conn has extension list which contains pointers to connection tracking users (like nat, which is right now the only such user), so when replace takes place it should copy own extensions. Loop above checks for own extension, but tries to move higer-layer one, which can lead to above oops. Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Polyakov <johnpol@2ka.mipt.ru> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-11-15[MIPS] irq_cpu: use handle_percpu_irq handler to avoid dropping interrupts.Ralf Baechle
This matters to any sort of device that is wired to one of the CPU interrupt pins on an SMP system. Typically the scenario is most easily triggered with the count/compare timer interrupt where the same interrupt number and thus irq_desc is used on each processor. CPU A CPU B do_IRQ() generic_handle_irq() handle_level_irq() spin_lock(desc_lock) set IRQ_INPROGRESS spin_unlock(desc_lock) do_IRQ() generic_handle_irq() handle_level_irq() spin_lock(desc_lock) IRQ_INPROGRESS set => bail out spin_lock(desc_lock) clear IRQ_INPROGRESS spin_unlock(desc_lock) In case of the cp0 compare interrupt this means the interrupt will be acked and not handled or re-armed on CPU b, so there won't be any timer interrupt until the count register wraps around. With kernels 2.6.20 ... 2.6.23 we usually were lucky that things were just working right on VSMP because the count registers are synchronized on bootup so it takes something that disables interrupts for a long time on one processor to trigger this one. For scenarios where an interrupt is multicasted or broadcasted over several CPUs the existing code was safe and the fix will break it. There is no way to know in the interrupt controller code because it is abstracted from the platform code. I think we do not have such a setup currently, so this should be ok.

2007-11-15[MIPS] Sibyte: Stop timers before programming next even.Ralf Baechle
We have no guarantee by the generic time code that the timer is stopped when the ->next_event method is called. Modifying the Timer Initial Count register while the timer is enabled has UNPREDICTABLE effect according to the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual. So stop the timer before reprogramming. This is a paranoia fix; no ill effects have been observed previously. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2007-11-15[MIPS] Sibyte: Increase minimum oneshot timer interval to two ticks.Ralf Baechle
For the old minimum of a single tick a value of zero would be programmed into the init value register which in the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual in the Timer Special Cases section is documented to have UNPREDICTABLE effect. Observable sympthoms of this bug were hangs of several seconds on the console during bootup and later if both dyntick and highres timer options were activated. In theory contiguous mode of the timers is also affected but in an act of hopeless lack of realism I'll assume nobody will ever configure a KERNEL for HZ > 500kHz but if so I leave that to evolution to sort out.

2007-11-15[MIPS] Fix shadow register support.Ralf Baechle
Shadow register support would not possibly have worked on multicore systems. The support code for it was also depending not on MIPS R2 but VSMP or SMTC kernels even though it makes perfect sense with UP kernels. SR sets are a scarce resource and the expected usage pattern is that users actually hardcode the register set numbers in their code. So fix the allocator by ditching it. Move the remaining CPU probe bits into the generic CPU probe. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
