2005-08-23[PATCH] md: make sure resync gets started when array starts.NeilBrown
We weren't actually waking up the md thread after setting MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED when assembling an array, so it is possible to lose a race and not actually start resync. So add a call to md_wakeup_thread, and while we are at it, remove all the "if (mddev->thread)" guards as md_wake_thread does its own checking.

2005-08-23[PATCH] preempt race in getppidDavid Meybohm
With CONFIG_PREEMPT && !CONFIG_SMP, it's possible for sys_getppid to return a bogus value if the parent's task_struct gets reallocated after current->group_leader->real_parent is read: asmlinkage long sys_getppid(void) { int pid; struct task_struct *me = current; struct task_struct *parent; parent = me->group_leader->real_parent; RACE HERE => for (;;) { pid = parent->tgid; #ifdef CONFIG_SMP { struct task_struct *old = parent; /* * Make sure we read the pid before re-reading the * parent pointer: */ smp_rmb(); parent = me->group_leader->real_parent; if (old != parent) continue; } #endif break; } return pid; } If the process gets preempted at the indicated point, the parent process can go ahead and call exit() and then get wait()'d on to reap its task_struct. When the preempted process gets resumed, it will not do any further checks of the parent pointer on !CONFIG_SMP: it will read the bad pid and return. So, the same algorithm used when SMP is enabled should be used when preempt is enabled, which will recheck ->real_parent in this case.

2005-08-23[TCP]: Unconditionally clear TCP_NAGLE_PUSH in skb_entail().David S. Miller
Intention of this bit is to force pushing of the existing send queue when TCP_CORK or TCP_NODELAY state changes via setsockopt(). But it's easy to create a situation where the bit never clears. For example, if the send queue starts empty: 1) set TCP_NODELAY 2) clear TCP_NODELAY 3) set TCP_CORK 4) do small write() The current code will leave TCP_NAGLE_PUSH set after that sequence. Unconditionally clearing the bit when new data is added via skb_entail() solves the problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-23[PKT_SCHED]: Fix missing qdisc_destroy() in qdisc_create_dflt()Thomas Graf
qdisc_create_dflt() is missing to destroy the newly allocated default qdisc if the initialization fails resulting in leaks of all kinds. The only caller in mainline which may trigger this bug is sch_tbf.c in tbf_create_dflt_qdisc(). Note: qdisc_create_dflt() doesn't fulfill the official locking requirements of qdisc_destroy() but since the qdisc could never be seen by the outside world this doesn't matter and it can stay as-is until the locking of pkt_sched is cleaned up.

2005-08-23[NET]: Fix socket bitop damageRalf Baechle
The socket flag cleanups that went into 2.6.12-rc1 are basically oring the flags of an old socket into the socket just being created. Unfortunately that one was just initialized by sock_init_data(), so already has SOCK_ZAPPED set. As the result zapped sockets are created and all incoming connection will fail due to this bug which again was carefully replicated to at least AX.25, NET/ROM or ROSE. In order to keep the abstraction alive I've introduced sock_copy_flags() to copy the socket flags from one sockets to another and used that instead of the bitwise copy thing. Anyway, the idea here has probably been to copy all flags, so sock_copy_flags() should be the right thing. With this the ham radio protocols are usable again, so I hope this will make it into 2.6.13.

2005-08-23[IPV4]: Fix negative timer loop with lots of ipv4 peers.Dave Johnson
From: Dave Johnson <djohnson+linux-kernel@sw.starentnetworks.com> Found this bug while doing some scaling testing that created 500K inet peers. peer_check_expire() in net/ipv4/inetpeer.c isn't using inet_peer_gc_mintime correctly and will end up creating an expire timer with less than the minimum duration, and even zero/negative if enough active peers are present. If >65K peers, the timer will be less than inet_peer_gc_mintime, and with >70K peers, the timer duration will reach zero and go negative. The timer handler will continue to schedule another zero/negative timer in a loop until peers can be aged. This can continue for at least a few minutes or even longer if the peers remain active due to arriving packets while the loop is occurring. Bug is present in both 2.4 and 2.6. Same patch will apply to both just fine. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-08-23[IA64] Fix simulator boot (for real this time).Peter Chubb
Thanks to Stephane, we've now worked out the real cause of the `Linux will not boot on simulator' problem. Turns out it's a stack overflow because the stack pointer wasn't being initialised properly in boot_head.S (it was being initialised to the lowest instead of the highest address of the stack, so the first push started to overwrite data in the BSS).

2005-08-23[PATCH] sil: apply M15W quirk selectively (take 2)Tejun Heo
As SII reports that only original 3112's are affected by M15W quirk, This patch adds SIL_FLAG_MOD15WRITE to selectively apply M15W quirk depending on chipsets. As of yet, we don't know exactly which PCI IDs are for original 3112, so M15W quirk is applied to all except for 3512 and 3124. Once more info is avaliable, we can change some of these sil_3112_m15w's to sil_3112. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-08-23[PATCH] libata: implement ata_poll_qc_complete and use it in polling functionsTejun Heo
[PATCH libata-dev-2.6:upstream] implement ata_poll_qc_complete and use it in polling functions Previously, libata polling functions turned irq back on and completed qc commands without holding host lock. This creates a race condition between the polling task and interrupts from other ports on the same host set or spurious interrupt from itself. This patch implements ata_poll_qc_complete which enables irq and completes qc atomically and convert all polling functions. Note: atapi_packet_task() didn't use to turn irq back on or clear ATA_FLAG_NOINTR on error exits. This patch makes it use ata_poll_qc_complete which does both. Note: With this change, ALL invocations of ata_qc_complete() are now done under host_set lock. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-08-23[PATCH] fix atapi_packet_task vs. intr race (take 2)Tejun Heo
Interrupts from devices sharing the same IRQ could cause ata_host_intr to finish commands being processed by atapi_packet_task if the commands are using ATA_PROT_ATAPI_NODATA or ATA_PROT_ATAPI_DMA protocol. This is because libata interrupt handler is unaware that interrupts are not expected during that period. This patch adds ATA_FLAG_NOINTR flag to tell the interrupt handler that we're not expecting interrupts. Note that once proper HSM is implemented for interrupt-driven PIO, this should be merged into it and this flag will be removed. ahci.c is a different kind of beast, so it's left alone. * The following drivers use ata_qc_issue_prot and ata_interrupt, so changes in libata core will do. ata_piix sata_sil sata_svw sata_via sata_sis sata_uli * The following drivers use ata_qc_issue_prot and custom intr handler. They need this change to work correctly. sata_nv sata_vsc * The following drivers use custom issue function and intr handler. Currently all custom issue functions don't support ATAPI, so this change is irrelevant, updated for consistency and to avoid later mistakes. sata_promise sata_qstor sata_sx4 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-08-23[PATCH] Fix HD activity LED with ahciMartin Wilck
Patch: fix wrong HD activity control by ahci driver The ahci driver 1.0 sets the SActive bit on every transaction, causing the LED to light up. The SActive bit is used only for native command queuing (NCQ) which the current driver version doesn't implement. Resetting the SActive bit is the device's responsibility (by sending a "Set Device Bits FIS" to the host adapter) but this is not required in response to non-NCQ commands, and (most) devices don't. Thus the LED stays always on. This patch fixes the LED behavior.
