2006-07-10[PATCH] pi-futex: Validate futex type instead of oopsingThomas Gleixner
Calling futex_lock_pi is called with a reference to a non PI futex and waiters exist already, lookup_pi_state() oopses due to pi_state == NULL. Check this condition and return -EINVAL to userspace.

2006-07-10[PATCH] ACPI: fix fan/thermal resumeKonstantin Karasyov
Daniel Ritz <daniel.ritz-ml@swissonline.ch> says: The acpi driver suspend/resume patches that went in recently caused a regression on my box (toshiba tecra 8000 laptop): after resume from swsusp the fan turns on keeping blowing cold air out of my notebook. before the patches, the fan was off and would only make noise when required. it's the same thing described in bugzilla.kernel.org #5000. the acpi suspend/resume patches or at least parts of them originate in this bug. now the last patch in the report (attach id 8438) actually fixes the problem - for me and the reporter. this is a trimmed down version of that patch.

2006-07-10[PATCH] md: fix a plug/unplug race in raid5NeilBrown
When a device is unplugged, requests are moved from one or two (depending on whether a bitmap is in use) queues to the main request queue. So whenever requests are put on either of those queues, we should make sure the raid5 array is 'plugged'. However we don't. We currently plug the raid5 queue just before putting requests on queues, so there is room for a race. If something unplugs the queue at just the wrong time, requests will be left on the queue and nothing will want to unplug them. Normally something else will plug and unplug the queue fairly soon, but there is a risk that nothing will.

2006-07-10[PATCH] md: fix resync speed calculation for restarted resyncsNeilBrown
We introduced 'io_sectors' recently so we could count the sectors that causes io during resync separate from sectors which didn't cause IO - there can be a difference if a bitmap is being used to accelerate resync. However when a speed is reported, we find the number of sectors processed recently by subtracting an oldish io_sectors count from a current 'curr_resync' count. This is wrong because curr_resync counts all sectors, not just io sectors. So, add a field to mddev to store the curren io_sectors separately from curr_resync, and use that in the calculations.

2006-07-10[PATCH] md: delay starting md threads until array is completely setupNeilBrown
When an array is started we start one or two threads (two if there is a reshape or recovery that needs to be completed). We currently start these *before* the array is completely set up and in particular before queue->queuedata is set. If the thread actually starts very quickly on another CPU, we can end up dereferencing queue->queuedata and oops. This patch also makes sure we don't try to start a recovery if a reshape is being restarted. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-07-10[PATCH] md: possible fix for unplug problemNeilBrown
I have reports of a problem with raid5 which turns out to be because the raid5 device gets stuck in a 'plugged' state. This shouldn't be able to happen as 3msec after it gets plugged it should get unplugged. However it happens none-the-less. This patch fixes the problem and is a reasonable thing to do, though it might hurt performance slightly in some cases. Until I can find the real problem, we should probably have this workaround in place.

Reduce the class-cache to be for the default class only - that is used in 99.9% of the cases and even if we dont have a class cached, the lookup in the class-hash is lockless.

2006-07-10[PATCH] partitions: let partitions inherit policy from diskPeter Oberparleiter
Change the partition code in fs/partitions/check.c to initialize a newly detected partition's policy field with that of the containing block device (see patch below). My reasoning is that function set_disk_ro() in block/genhd.c modifies the policy field (read-only indicator) of a disk and all contained partitions. When a partition is detected after the call to set_disk_ro(), the policy field of this partition will currently not inherit the disk's policy field. This behavior poses a problem in cases where a block device can be 'logically de- and reactivated' like e.g. the s390 DASD driver because partition detection may run after the policy field has been modified.

2006-07-10[PATCH] reiserfs: fix journaling issue regarding fsync()Hisashi Hifumi
When write() extends a file(i_size is increased) and fsync() is called, change of inode must be written to journaling area through fsync(). But,currently the i_trans_id is not correctly updated when i_size is increased. So fsync() does not kick the journal writer. Reiserfs_file_write() already updates the transaction when blocks are allocated, but the case when i_size increases and new blocks are not added is not correctly treated.

2006-07-10[PATCH] sched: fix bug in __migrate_task()Peter Williams
Problem: In the function __migrate_task(), deactivate_task() followed by activate_task() is used to move the task from one run queue to another. This has two undesirable effects: 1. The task's priority is recalculated. (Nowhere else in the scheduler code is the priority recalculated for a change of CPU.) 2. The task's time stamp is set to the current time. At the very least, this makes the adjustment of the time stamp before the call to deactivate_task() redundant but I believe the problem is more serious as the time stamp now holds the time of the queue change instead of the time at which the task was woken. In addition, unless dest_rq is the same queue as "current" is on the time stamp could be inaccurate due to inter CPU drift. Solution: Replace the call to activate_task() with one to __activate_task().
