2009-07-27update the comment in kthread_stop()Oleg Nesterov
Commit 63706172f332fd3f6e7458ebfb35fa6de9c21dc5 ("kthreads: rework kthread_stop()") removed the limitation that the thread function mysr not call do_exit() itself, but forgot to update the comment. Since that commit it is OK to use kthread_stop() even if kthread can exit itself.

2009-07-27module: use MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX with module_layoutMike Frysinger
The check_modstruct_version() needs to look up the symbol "module_layout" in the kernel, but it does so literally and not by a C identifier. The trouble is that it does not include a symbol prefix for those ports that need it (like the Blackfin and H8300 port). So make sure we tack on the MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX define to the front of it.

2009-07-27mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()Benjamin Herrenschmidt
mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb() Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works. Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted, we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions. The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

This causes the acl object to be used after freeing it, leading to kernel panics in completely different places. Thanks to Christophe Dumez for reporting and bisecting into this.

2009-07-22cifs: fix sb->s_maxbytes so that it casts properly to a signed valueJeff Layton
This off-by-one bug causes sendfile() to not work properly. When a task calls sendfile() on a file on a CIFS filesystem, the syscall returns -1 and sets errno to EOVERFLOW. do_sendfile uses s_maxbytes to verify the returned offset of the file. The problem there is that this value is cast to a signed value (loff_t). When this is done on the s_maxbytes value that cifs uses, it becomes negative and the comparisons against it fail. Even though s_maxbytes is an unsigned value, it seems that it's not OK to set it in such a way that it'll end up negative when it's cast to a signed value. These casts happen in other codepaths besides sendfile too, but the VFS is a little hard to follow in this area and I can't be sure if there are other bugs that this will fix. It's not clear to me why s_maxbytes isn't just declared as loff_t in the first place, but either way we still need to fix these values to make sendfile work properly. This is also an opportunity to replace the magic bit-shift values here with the standard #defines for this. This fixes the reproducer program I have that does a sendfile and will probably also fix the situation where apache is serving from a CIFS share.

2009-07-22perf: avoid structure size confusion by using a fixed sizeArjan van de Ven
for some reason, this structure gets compiled as 36 bytes in some files (the ones that alloacte it) but 40 bytes in others (the ones that use it). The cause is an off_t type that gets a different size in different compilation units for some yet-to-be-explained reason. But the effect is disasterous; the size/offset members of the struct are at different offsets, and result in mostly complete garbage. The parser in perf is so robust that this all gets hidden, and after skipping an certain amount of samples, it recovers.... so this bug is not normally noticed. .... except when you want every sample to be exact.

2009-07-22perf_counter: PERF_SAMPLE_ID and inherited countersPeter Zijlstra
Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID because each inherited counter gets its own id. His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited counters have a unique identifier so that events like PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the sample streams. This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow, whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed, which might only take effect on the next cycle). This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that _should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full reconstruction is important.

2009-07-22fbmon: work around compiler bug in gcc-2.4.2Linus Torvalds
There's some odd bug in gcc-4.2 where it miscompiles a simple loop whent he loop counter is of type 'unsigned char' and it should count to 128. The compiler will incorrectly decide that a trivial loop like this: unsigned char i, ... for (i = 0; i < 128; i++) { .. is endless, and will compile it to a single instruction that just branches to itself. This was triggered by the addition of '-fno-strict-overflow', and we could play games with compiler versions and go back to '-fwrapv' instead, but the trivial way to avoid it is to just make the loop induction variable be an 'int' instead.

2009-07-21ide: fix memory leak when flush command is issuedMaxime Bizon
I'm using ide on 2.6.30.1 with xfs filesystem. I noticed a kernel memory leak after writing lots of data, the kmalloc-96 slab cache keeps growing. It seems the struct ide_cmd kmalloced by idedisk_prepare_flush is never kfreed. Commit a09485df9cda49fbde2766c86eb18a9cae585162 ("ide: move request type specific code from ide_end_drive_cmd() to callers (v3)") and f505d49ffd25ed062e76ffd17568d3937fcd338c ("ide: fix barriers support") cause this regression, cmd->rq must now be set for ide_complete_cmd to honor the IDE_TFLAG_DYN flag.

2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix a problem whereby a buggy server can oops the kernelTrond Myklebust
We just had a case in which a buggy server occasionally returns the wrong attributes during an OPEN call. While the client does catch this sort of condition in nfs4_open_done(), and causes the nfs4_atomic_open() to return -EISDIR, the logic in nfs_atomic_lookup() is broken, since it causes a fallback to an ordinary lookup instead of just returning the error. When the buggy server then returns a regular file for the fallback lookup, the VFS allows the open, and bad things start to happen, since the open file doesn't have any associated NFSv4 state. The fix is firstly to return the EISDIR/ENOTDIR errors immediately, and secondly to ensure that we are always careful when dereferencing the nfs_open_context state pointer.

2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix an NFSv4 mount regressionTrond Myklebust
Commit 008f55d0e019943323c20a03493a2ba5672a4cc8 (nfs41: recover lease in _nfs4_lookup_root) forces the state manager to always run on mount. This is a bug in the case of NFSv4.0, which doesn't require us to send a setclientid until we want to grab file state. In any case, this is completely the wrong place to be doing state management. Moving that code into nfs4_init_session... Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
