2010-02-16sysfs: sysfs_sd_setattr set iattrs unconditionallyEric W. Biederman
There is currently a bug in sysfs_sd_setattr inherited from sysfs_setattr in 2.6.32 where the first time we set the attributes on a sysfs file we allocate backing store but do not set the backing store attributes. Resulting in overly restrictive permissions on sysfs files. The fix is to simply modify the code so that it always executes when we update the sysfs attributes, as we did in 2.6.31 and earlier.

2010-02-15NFS: Too many GETATTR and ACCESS calls after direct I/OChuck Lever
The cached read and write paths initialize fattr->time_start in their setup procedures. The value of fattr->time_start is propagated to read_cache_jiffies by nfs_update_inode(). Subsequent calls to nfs_attribute_timeout() will then use a good time stamp when computing the attribute cache timeout, and squelch unneeded GETATTR calls. Since the direct I/O paths erroneously leave the inode's fattr->time_start field set to zero, read_cache_jiffies for that inode is set to zero after any direct read or write operation. This triggers an otw GETATTR or ACCESS call to update the file's attribute and access caches properly, even when the NFS READ or WRITE replies have usable post-op attributes. Make sure the direct read and write setup code performs the same fattr initialization as the cached I/O paths to prevent unnecessary GETATTR calls. This was likely introduced by commit 0e574af1 in 2.6.15, which appears to add new nfs_fattr_init() call sites in the cached read and write paths, but not in the equivalent places in fs/nfs/direct.c. A subsequent commit in the same series, 33801147, introduces the fattr->time_start field. Interestingly, the direct write reschedule path already has a call to nfs_fattr_init() in the right place.

2010-02-15sh64: fix tracing of signals.Paul Mundt
This follows the parisc change to ensure that tracehook_signal_handler() is aware of when we are single-stepping in order to ptrace_notify() appropriately. While this was implemented for 32-bit SH, sh64 neglected to make use of TIF_SINGLESTEP when it was folded in with the 32-bit code, resulting in ptrace_notify() never being called. As sh64 uses all of the other abstractions already, this simply plugs in the thread flag in the appropriate enable/disable paths and fixes up the tracehook notification accordingly. With this in place, sh64 is brought in line with what 32-bit is already doing. Reported-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2010-02-14reiserfs: Fix softlockup while waiting on an inodeFrederic Weisbecker
When we wait for an inode through reiserfs_iget(), we hold the reiserfs lock. And waiting for an inode may imply waiting for its writeback. But the inode writeback path may also require the reiserfs lock, which leads to a deadlock. We just need to release the reiserfs lock from reiserfs_iget() to fix this.

2010-02-14firewire: ohci: retransmit isochronous transmit packets on cycle lossClemens Ladisch
In isochronous transmit DMA descriptors, link the skip address pointer back to the descriptor itself. When a cycle is lost, the controller will send the packet in the next cycle, instead of terminating the entire DMA program. There are two reasons for this: * This behaviour is compatible with the old IEEE1394 stack. Old applications would not expect the DMA program to stop in this case. * Since the OHCI driver does not report any uncompleted packets, the context would stop silently; clients would not have any chance to detect and handle this error without a watchdog timer. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de> Pieter Palmers notes: "The reason I added this retry behavior to the old stack is because some cards now and then fail to send a packet (e.g. the o2micro card in my dell laptop). I couldn't figure out why exactly this happens, my best guess is that the card cannot fetch the payload data on time. This happens much more frequently when sending large packets, which leads me to suspect that there are some contention issues with the DMA that fills the transmit FIFO. In the old stack it was a pretty critical issue as it resulted in a freeze of the userspace application. The omission of a packet doesn't necessarily have to be an issue. E.g. in IEC61883 streams the DBC field can be used to detect discontinuities in the stream. So as long as the other side doesn't bail when no [packet] is present in a cycle, there is not really a problem. I'm not convinced though that retrying is the proper solution, but it is simple and effective for what it had to do. And I think there are no reasons not to do it this way. Userspace can still detect this by checking the cycle the descriptor was sent in." Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de> (changelog, comment)

2010-02-11fs/exec.c: restrict initial stack space expansion to rlimitMichael Neuling
When reserving stack space for a new process, make sure we're not attempting to expand the stack by more than rlimit allows. This fixes a bug caused by b6a2fea39318e43fee84fa7b0b90d68bed92d2ba ("mm: variable length argument support") and unmasked by fc63cf237078c86214abcb2ee9926d8ad289da9b ("exec: setup_arg_pages() fails to return errors"). This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg. 80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before they start. This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below 1280K will kill every process. To test, do: 'ulimit -s 15; ls' before and after the patch is applied. Before it's applied, 'ls' should be killed. After the patch is applied, 'ls' should no longer be killed. A stack limit of 15KB since it's small enough to trigger 20*PAGE_SIZE. Also 15KB not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which is a trickier case to handle correctly with this code. 4K pages should be fine to test with.
