2007-07-03dio: remove bogus refcounting BUG_ONZach Brown
Badari Pulavarty reported a case of this BUG_ON is triggering during testing. It's completely bogus and should be removed. It's trying to notice if we left references to the dio hanging around in the sync case. They should have been dropped as IO completed while this path was in dio_await_completion(). This condition will also be checked, via some twisty logic, by the BUG_ON(ret != -EIOCBQUEUED) a few lines lower. So to start this BUG_ON() is redundant. More fatally, it's dereferencing dio-> after having dropped its reference. It's only safe to dereference the dio after releasing the lock if the final reference was just dropped. Another CPU might free the dio in bio completion and reuse the memory after this path drops the dio lock but before the BUG_ON() is evaluated. This patch passed aio+dio regression unit tests and aio-stress on ext3.

2007-07-03Revert HPET resource reservationAndi Kleen
Matthias Lenk reports that the PCI subsystem would move the HPET on SB400/SB600-based systems, where the HPET is in BAR1 of the SMbus controller. The reason? The ACPI layer registered the PCI MMIO range as being busy too early, before PCI enumeration had happened, causing the PCI layer to decide that it should relocate the resources somewhere else. Firmware resources should be marked busy _after_ the PCI enumeration and probing has happened, not before. Remove the too-early reservation, we'll fix it up to do it properly later. In the meantime, this solves the regression.

2007-07-03NTP: remove clock_was_set() call to prevent deadlockThomas Gleixner
The clock_was_set() call in seconds_overflow() which happens only when leap seconds are inserted / deleted is wrong in two aspects: 1. it results in a call to on_each_cpu() with interrupts disabled 2. it is potential deadlock source vs. call_lock in smp_call_function() The only possible side effect of the removal might be, that an absolute CLOCK_REALTIME timer fires 1 second too late, in the rare case of leap second deletion and an absolute CLOCK_REALTIME timer which expires in the affected time frame. It will never fire too early. This was probably observed by the reporter of a June 30th -> July 1st hang: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/7/3/103 A similar problem was observed by Dave Jones, who provided a screen shot with a lockdep back trace, which allowed to analyse the problem.

2007-07-03V4L/DVB (5818): CinergyT2: fix flush_workqueue() vs work->func() deadlockOleg Nesterov
Spotted and tested by Thomas Sattler <tsattler@gmx.de>. cinergyT2.c does cancel_delayed_work() + flush_scheduled_work() while holding cinergyt2->sem. This leads to deadlock because work->func() needs the same mutex to complete. Another bug is that this code in fact can't reliably stop the re-arming delayed_work. Convert this code to use cancel_rearming_delayed_work() and move it out of ->sem. Another mutex, ->wq_sem, was added to protect against the concurrent open/resume. This patch is a horrible hack to fix the lockup which happens in practice. As Dmitry Torokhov pointed out this driver has other problems and needs further changes.

The cause was that vidioc_g_tuner didn't return an error value for qctrl->id != 0, making the application think there is a never ending list of tuners...

2007-07-03V4L/DVB (5808): Bttv: fix v4l1 breaking the driverTrent Piepho
If one uses a V4L *one* application, such as vlc or mplayer's v4l driver, as the first user after the driver is loaded, the driver wedges itself and will never capture properly. Even if one uses a V4L2 application later, it still won't work. If one uses a V4L *two* application first, such as tvtime or mplayer's v4l2 driver, then the driver will be ok. One can then run a V4L1 application, and it will work. It turns out the problem is with norm changing and the crop support that was added in 2.6.21. The driver defaults to PAL, and keeps the last norm it was set too across opens. If one changes the norm via V4L1, the cropping parameters are not reset like they should be, and they'll remain broken across device opens. This patch removes the direct setting of btv->tvnorm in the V4L1 ioctl VIDIOCSCHAN handler. The norm is set via the existing call to set_input(), which calls set_tvnorm(), which will reset the cropping values now that it is able to detect the norm change.
