2006-10-29Revert "r8169: mac address change support"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit a2b98a697fa4e7564f78905b83db122824916cf9. As per Guennadi Liakhovetski, the mac address change support code breaks some normal uses (_without_ any address changes), and until it's all sorted out, we're better off without it. Says Francois: "Go revert it. Despite what I claimed, I can not find a third-party confirmation by email that it works elsewhere. It would probably be enough to remove the call to __rtl8169_set_mac_addr() in rtl8169_hw_start() though."

2006-10-29[PATCH] Fix GFP_HIGHMEM slab panicGiridhar Pemmasani
As reported by Martin J. Bligh <mbligh@google.com>, we let through some non-slab bits to slab allocation through __get_vm_area_node when doing a vmalloc. I haven't been able to reproduce this, although I understand why it happens: vmalloc allocates memory with GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_HIGHMEM and commit 52fd24ca1db3a741f144bbc229beefe044202cac resulted in the same flags are passed down to cache_alloc_refill, causing the BUG. The following patch fixes it. Note that when calling kmalloc_node, I am masking off __GFP_HIGHMEM with GFP_LEVEL_MASK, whereas __vmalloc_area_node does the same with ~(__GFP_HIGHMEM | __GFP_ZERO). IMHO, using GFP_LEVEL_MASK is preferable, but either should fix this problem. Signed-off-by: Giridhar Pemmasani (pgiri@yahoo.com) Cc: Martin J.

2006-10-28[PATCH] Calculation fix for memory holes beyong the end of physical memoryMel Gorman
absent_pages_in_range() made the assumption that users of the arch-independent zone-sizing API would not care about holes beyound the end of physical memory. This was not the case and was "fixed" in a patch called "Account for holes that are outside the range of physical memory". However, when given a range that started before a hole in "real" memory and ended beyond the end of memory, it would get the result wrong. The bug is in mainline but a patch is below. It has been tested successfully on a number of machines and architectures.

However as far as I see this comment is not correct: when we cannot take s_umount rw_semaphore (for example because it was taken in do_remount) this dentry is already extracted from dentry_unused list and we do not add it into the list again. Therefore dentry will not be found by prune_dcache() and shrink_dcache_sb() and will leave in memory very long time until the partition will be unmounted. The patch adds this dentry into tail of the dentry_unused list.

2006-10-28[PATCH] hugetlb: fix prio_tree unitHugh Dickins
hugetlb_vmtruncate_list was misconverted to prio_tree: its prio_tree is in units of PAGE_SIZE (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE) like any other, not HPAGE_SIZE (whereas its radix_tree is kept in units of HPAGE_SIZE, otherwise slots would be absurdly sparse). At first I thought the error benign, just calling __unmap_hugepage_range on more vmas than necessary; but on 32-bit machines, when the prio_tree is searched correctly, it happens to ensure the v_offset calculation won't overflow. As it stood, when truncating at or beyond 4GB, it was liable to discard pages COWed from lower offsets; or even to clear pmd entries of preceding vmas, triggering exit_mmap's BUG_ON(nr_ptes).

2006-10-28[PATCH] hugetlb: fix size=4G parsingHugh Dickins
On 32-bit machines, mount -t hugetlbfs -o size=4G gave a 0GB filesystem, size=5G gave a 1GB filesystem etc: there's no point in masking size with HPAGE_MASK just before shifting its lower bits away, and since HPAGE_MASK is a UL, that removed all the higher bits of the unsigned long long size.

2006-10-28[PATCH] __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC causes 'sleeping from invalid context'Giridhar Pemmasani
If __vmalloc is called to allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC in atomic context, the chain of calls results in __get_vm_area_node allocating memory for vm_struct with GFP_KERNEL, causing the 'sleeping from invalid context' warning. This patch fixes it by passing the gfp flags along so __get_vm_area_node allocates memory for vm_struct with the same flags.
