This can be broken down into these major areas: - Documentation updates (language translations and fixes, as well as kobject and kset documenatation updates.) - major kset/kobject/ktype rework and fixes. This cleans up the kset and kobject and ktype relationship and architecture, making sense of things now, and good documenation and samples are provided for others to use. Also the attributes for kobjects are much easier to handle now. This cleaned up a LOT of code all through the kernel, making kobjects easier to use if you want to. - struct bus_type has been reworked to now handle the lifetime rules properly, as the kobject is properly dynamic. - struct driver has also been reworked, and now the lifetime issues are resolved. - the block subsystem has been converted to use struct device now, and not "raw" kobjects. This patch has been in the -mm tree for over a year now, and finally all the issues are worked out with it. Older distros now properly work with new kernels, and no userspace updates are needed at all. - nozomi driver is added. This has also been in -mm for a long time, and many people have asked for it to go in. It is now in good enough shape to do so. - lots of class_device conversions to use struct device instead.

2007-10-16fix possible NULL deref on low memory condition in capidrv.c::send_message()Jesper Juhl
If we fail to allocate an skb in drivers/isdn/capi/capidrv.c::send_message(), then we'll end up dereferencing a NULL pointer. Since out of memory conditions are not unheard of, I believe it is better to print a error message and just return rather than bring down the whole kernel. Sure, doing this may upset some application, but that's still better than crashing the whole system.

drivers/isdn/capi/capi.c: In function 'handle_minor_send': drivers/isdn/capi/capi.c:552: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size Of course, the code here might actually be buggy, in which case this patch should not be applied? Answer: No this field is ignored inside linux kernel.Yes this is ugly, but it's the CAPI spec for all OS. CAPI DATA_B3 Request/Indication CAPI Message has a mandatory field which represent the 32 bit buffer address of the payload data. In linux the payload data do not use a sperate buffer, data follows directely after the CAPI Message in the same skb and we use this assumption inside the drivers, so we can ignore this field. Inside the linux CAPI implemetation we never use this field, so it could also have no value, but since random data in a message is bad as well (e.g. displayed in CAPI traces) we set is to the most adequate value. Outside the kernel the capi20 library sets the correct addresses (there is an optional second field for 64 bit adresses for 64 bit systems, we do not use here).

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

2007-02-12[PATCH] Workaround CAPI subsystem locking issueMichael Buesch
I think the following patch should go into the kernel, until the ISDN/CAPI guys create the real fix for this issue. The issue is a concurrency issue with some internal CAPI data structure which can crash the kernel. On my FritzCard DSL with the AVM driver it crashes about once a day without this workaround patch. With this workaround patch it's rock-stable (at least on UP, but I don't see why this shouldn't work on SMP as well. But maybe I'm missing something.) This workaround is kind of a sledgehammer which inserts a global lock to wrap around all the critical sections. Of course, this is a scalability issue, if you have many ISDN/CAPI cards. But it prevents a crash. So I vote for this fix to get merged, until people come up with a better solution. Better have a stable kernel that's less scalable, than a crashing and useless kernel. This bug is in the kernel since 2.6.15 (at least).

2006-10-02[PATCH] const struct tty_operationsJeff Dike
As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of structures in order to not have to document their locking. One of these structures was a struct tty_operations. In order to const it in UML without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to be fixed. This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const. In all cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations. As an extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra warnings. 53 drivers are affected. I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the last six months. serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

I thought about some race condition, but as this is an UP system, it leads to questions on how it can happen. If we look at EFLAGS: 00010202, we see that interrupts are enabled at the time of the crash (eflags & 0x200). Finally, I don't understand all the capi code, but I think that handle_minor_send() is racing somehow against capi_recv_message(), which call both capiminor_del_ack(). So if an IRQ occurs in the middle of capiminor_del_ack() and another instance of it is invoked, it leads to linked list corruption. I came up with the following patch. With this, I could not reproduce the crash anymore. Clearly, this is not the correct fix for the issue. As this seems to be some locking issue, there might be more locking issues in that code. For example, doesn't the whole struct capiminor have to be locked somehow?

2006-06-23[PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mountDavid Howells
Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint. The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt() which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour). The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the superblock pointer. This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root and mnt_sb would be set directly. The patch also makes the following changes: (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change very little. (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb(). (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon(). This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root, and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in dentries being left unculled. However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries with child trees. [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree. (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

2006-01-10[PATCH] TTY layer buffering revampAlan Cox
The API and code have been through various bits of initial review by serial driver people but they definitely need to live somewhere for a while so the unconverted drivers can get knocked into shape, existing drivers that have been updated can be better tuned and bugs whacked out. This replaces the tty flip buffers with kmalloc objects in rings. In the normal situation for an IRQ driven serial port at typical speeds the behaviour is pretty much the same, two buffers end up allocated and the kernel cycles between them as before. When there are delays or at high speed we now behave far better as the buffer pool can grow a bit rather than lose characters. This also means that we can operate at higher speeds reliably. For drivers that receive characters in blocks (DMA based, USB and especially virtualisation) the layer allows a lot of driver specific code that works around the tty layer with private secondary queues to be removed. The IBM folks need this sort of layer, the smart serial port people do, the virtualisers do (because a virtualised tty typically operates at infinite speed rather than emulating 9600 baud). Finally many drivers had invalid and unsafe attempts to avoid buffer overflows by directly invoking tty methods extracted out of the innards of work queue structs. These are no longer needed and all go away. That fixes various random hangs with serial ports on overflow. The other change in here is to optimise the receive_room path that is used by some callers. It turns out that only one ldisc uses receive room except asa constant and it updates it far far less than the value is read. We thus make it a variable not a function call. I expect the code to contain bugs due to the size alone but I'll be watching and squashing them and feeding out new patches as it goes. Because the buffers now dynamically expand you should only run out of buffering when the kernel runs out of memory for real. That means a lot of the horrible hacks high performance drivers used to do just aren't needed any more. Description: tty_insert_flip_char is an old API and continues to work as before, as does tty_flip_buffer_push() [this is why many drivers dont need modification]. It does now also return the number of chars inserted There are also tty_buffer_request_room(tty, len) which asks for a buffer block of the length requested and returns the space found. This improves efficiency with hardware that knows how much to transfer. and tty_insert_flip_string_flags(tty, str, flags, len) to insert a string of characters and flags For a smart interface the usual code is len = tty_request_buffer_room(tty, amount_hardware_says); tty_insert_flip_string(tty, buffer_from_card, len); More description! At the moment tty buffers are attached directly to the tty. This is causing a lot of the problems related to tty layer locking, also problems at high speed and also with bursty data (such as occurs in virtualised environments) I'm working on ripping out the flip buffers and replacing them with a pool of dynamically allocated buffers. This allows both for old style "byte I/O" devices and also helps virtualisation and smart devices where large blocks of data suddenely materialise and need storing. So far so good. Lots of drivers reference tty->flip.*. Several of them also call directly and unsafely into function pointers it provides. This will all break. Most drivers can use tty_insert_flip_char which can be kept as an API but others need more. At the moment I've added the following interfaces, if people think more will be needed now is a good time to say int tty_buffer_request_room(tty, size) Try and ensure at least size bytes are available, returns actual room (may be zero). At the moment it just uses the flipbuf space but that will change. Repeated calls without characters being added are not cumulative. (ie if you call it with 1, 1, 1, and then 4 you'll have four characters of space. The other functions will also try and grow buffers in future but this will be a more efficient way when you know block sizes. int tty_insert_flip_char(tty, ch, flag) As before insert a character if there is room. Now returns 1 for success, 0 for failure. int tty_insert_flip_string(tty, str, len) Insert a block of non error characters. Returns the number inserted. int tty_prepare_flip_string(tty, strptr, len) Adjust the buffer to allow len characters to be added. Returns a buffer pointer in strptr and the length available. This allows for hardware that needs to use functions like insl or mencpy_fromio.

2005-10-30[PATCH] fix missing includesTim Schmielau
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.
