2005-06-07[PATCH] ppc32: add 405EP cpu_spec entryEugene Surovegin
Add a definition for PPC 405EP which was lost somehow during 2.4 -> 2.6 transition. Recent change to arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S ("Fix incorrect CPU_FTR fixup usage for unified caches") triggered this bug and 405EP boards don't boot anymore.

2005-06-06[TG3] Fix link failure in 5701Michael Chan
On some 5701 devices with older bootcode, the LED configuration bits in SRAM may be invalid with value zero. The fix is to check for invalid bits (0) and default to PHY 1 mode. Incorrect LED mode will lead to error in programming the PHY. Thanks to Grant Grundler for debugging the problem. >From Grant: | In May, 2004, tg3 v3.4 changed how MAC_LED_CTRL (0x40c) was getting | programmed and how to determine what to program into LED_CTRL. The new | code trusted NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG (0x00000b58) to indicate what to write | to LED_CTRL and MII EXT_CTRL registers. On "IOX Core Lan", SRAM was | saying MODE_MAC (0x0) and that doesn't work.

2005-06-06[PATCH] namei fixes (15/19)Al Viro
Getting rid of sloppy logics: a) in do_follow_link() we have the wrong vfsmount dropped if our symlink had been mounted on something. Currently it worls only because we never get such situation (modulo filesystem playing dirty tricks on us). And it obfuscates already convoluted logics... b) same goes for open_namei(). c) in __link_path_walk() we have another "it should never happen" sloppiness - out_dput: there does double-free on underlying vfsmount and leaks the covering one if we hit it just after crossing a mountpoint. Again, wrong vfsmount getting dropped. d) another too-early-mntput() race - in do_follow_mount() we need to postpone conditional mntput(path->mnt) until after dput(path->dentry).

In open_namei() exit_dput: we have mntput() done in the wrong order - if nd->mnt != path.mnt we end up doing mntput(nd->mnt); nd->mnt = path.mnt; dput(nd->dentry); mntput(nd->mnt); which drops nd->dentry too late.

2005-06-06[PATCH] namei fixes (10/19)Al Viro
In open_namei(), __follow_down() loop turned into __follow_mount(). Instead of if we are on a mountpoint dentry if O_NOFOLLOW checks fail drop path.dentry drop nd return do equivalent of follow_mount(&path.mnt, &path.dentry) nd->mnt = path.mnt we do if __follow_mount(path) had, indeed, traversed mountpoint /* now both nd->mnt and path.mnt are pinned down */ if O_NOFOLLOW checks fail drop path.dentry drop path.mnt drop nd return mntput(nd->mnt) nd->mnt = path.mnt Now __follow_down() can be folded into follow_down() - no other callers left. We need to reorder dput()/mntput() there - same problem as in follow_mount(). Equivalent transformation + fix for a bug in O_NOFOLLOW handling - we used to get -ELOOP if we had the same fs mounted on /foo and /bar, had something bound on /bar/baz and tried to open /foo/baz with O_NOFOLLOW.

2005-06-06[PATCH] namei fixes (9/19)Al Viro
New helper: __follow_mount(struct path *path). Same as follow_mount(), except that we do *not* do mntput() after the first lookup_mnt(). IOW, original path->mnt stays pinned down. We also take care to do dput() before mntput() in the loop body (follow_mount() also needs that reordering, but that will be done later in the series). The following are equivalent, assuming that path.mnt == x: (1) follow_mount(&path.mnt, &path.dentry) (2) __follow_mount(&path); if (path->mnt != x) mntput(x); (3) if (__follow_mount(&path)) mntput(x); Callers of follow_mount() in __link_path_walk() converted to (2).

In open_namei() we never use path.mnt or path.dentry after exit: or ok:. Assignment of path.dentry in case of LAST_BIND is dead code and only obfuscates already convoluted function; assignment of path.mnt after __do_follow_link() can be moved down to the place where we set path.dentry.

2005-06-06[PATCH] namei fixes (6/19)Al Viro
mntget(path->mnt) in do_follow_link() moved down to right before the __do_follow_link() call and rigth after loop: resp. dput()+mntput() on non-ELOOP branch moved up to right after __do_follow_link() call. resulting loop: mntget(path->mnt); path_release(nd); dput(path->mnt); mntput(path->mnt); replaced with equivalent dput(path->mnt); path_release(nd); Equivalent transformations - the reason why we have that mntget() is that __do_follow_link() can drop a reference to nd->mnt and that's what holds path->mnt. So that call can happen at any point prior to __do_follow_link() touching nd->mnt. The rest is obvious. NOTE: current tree relies on symlinks *never* being mounted on anything. It's not hard to get rid of that assumption (actually, that will come for free later in the series). For now we are just not making the situation worse than it is.

fix for too early mntput() in open_namei() - we pin path.mnt down for the duration of __do_follow_link().

We set path.mnt to nd->mnt after path_lookup() and __do_follow_link(). In __follow_down() loop we use &path.mnt instead of &nd->mnt and set nd->mnt to path.mnt immediately after that loop.

OK, here comes a patch series that hopefully should close all too-early-mntput() races in fs/namei.c. Entire area is convoluted as hell, so I'm splitting that series into _very_ small chunks. Patches alread in the tree close only (very wide) races in following symlinks (see "busy inodes after umount" thread some time ago). Unfortunately, quite a few narrower races of the same nature were not closed. Hopefully this should take care of all of them.

2005-06-04[PATCH] s390: uml ptrace fixesBodo Stroesser
To make UML build and run on s390, I needed to do these two little changes: 1) UML includes some of the subarch's (s390) headers. I had to change one of them with the following one-liner, to make this compile. AFAICS, this change doesn't break compilation of s390 itself. 2) UML needs to intercept syscalls via ptrace to invalidate the syscall, read syscall's parameters and write the result with the result of UML's syscall processing. Also, UML needs to make sure, that the host does no syscall restart processing. On i386 for example, this can be done by writing -1 to orig_eax on the 2nd syscall interception (orig_eax is the syscall number, which after the interception is used as a "interrupt was a syscall" flag only. Unfortunately, s390 holds syscall number and syscall result in gpr2 and its "interrupt was a syscall" flag (trap) is unreachable via ptrace. So I changed the host to set trap to -1, if the syscall number is changed to an invalid value on the first syscall interception.

2005-06-04[PATCH] s390: ptrace peek and pokeMartin Schwidefsky
The special cases of peek and poke on acrs[15] and the fpc register are not handled correctly. A poke on acrs[15] will clobber the 4 bytes after the access registers in the thread_info structure. That happens to be the kernel stack pointer. A poke on the fpc with an invalid value is not caught by the validity check. On the next context switch the broken fpc value will cause a program check in the kernel. Improving the checks in peek and poke fixes this.

Re-work the m68knommu specific idle code according to suggestions from Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au>. A couple of rules that we need to follow: 1. Preempt should now disabled over idle routines. Should only be enabled to call schedule() then disabled again. 3. When cpu_idle finds (need_resched() == 'true'), it should call schedule(). It should not call schedule() otherwise. Also fix interrupt locking around the need_resched() and cpu stop state so that there is no race condition.

I did some digging and the problem seems to be a refcounting issue in __scsi_add_device. The target gets freed in scsi_target_reap, and then __scsi_add_device tries to do another device_put on it.
