2006-12-07[PATCH] aio: remove ki_retried debugging memberBenjamin LaHaise
Remove the ki_retried member from struct kiocb. I think the idea was bounced around a while back, but Arnaldo pointed out another reason that we should dig it up when he pointed out that the last cacheline of struct kiocb only contains 4 bytes. By removing the debugging member, we save more than the 8 byte on 64 bit machines.

2006-12-07[PATCH] fs: make nls_cp936.c handle some U00XY characters and U20AC correctlyJun Chen
Twenty characters in cp936 are not correctly handled. They're all in the U00 plane. nls_cp936 converts all U00XY to XY but this is not correct for some characters.(e.g. U00B7 -> A1A4, U00A8 -> A1A7). This problem is fixed by generating u2c_00 based on all c2u_xx and changing uni2char() to give U00 plane a special handling. The "€"(U20AC,80 in cp936) is also be handled properly.

This patch removes the unused NFSD_OPTIMIZE_SPACE. Additionally, it does differently what NFSD_OPTIMIZE_SPACE was supposed to do: Nowadays, gcc knows best when to inline code, and CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE even tells gcc globally whether to optimize for size or for speed.

2006-12-07[PATCH] autofs: fix error code path in autofs_fill_sb()Jiri Kosina
When kernel is compiled with old version of autofs (CONFIG_AUTOFS_FS), and new (observed at least with 5.x.x) automount deamon is started, kernel correctly reports incompatible version of kernel and userland daemon, but then screws things up instead of correct handling of the error: autofs: kernel does not match daemon version ===================================== [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ] ------------------------------------- automount/4199 is trying to release lock (&type->s_umount_key) at: [<c0163b9e>] get_sb_nodev+0x76/0xa4 but there are no more locks to release! other info that might help us debug this: no locks held by automount/4199. stack backtrace: [<c0103b15>] dump_trace+0x68/0x1b2 [<c0103c77>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x18/0x2c [<c01041db>] show_trace+0xf/0x11 [<c010424d>] dump_stack+0x12/0x14 [<c012e02c>] print_unlock_inbalance_bug+0xe7/0xf3 [<c012fd4f>] lock_release+0x8d/0x164 [<c012b452>] up_write+0x14/0x27 [<c0163b9e>] get_sb_nodev+0x76/0xa4 [<c0163689>] vfs_kern_mount+0x83/0xf6 [<c016373e>] do_kern_mount+0x2d/0x3e [<c017513f>] do_mount+0x607/0x67a [<c0175224>] sys_mount+0x72/0xa4 [<c0102b96>] sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0x99 DWARF2 unwinder stuck at sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0x99 Leftover inexact backtrace: ======================= and then deadlock comes. The problem: autofs_fill_super() returns EINVAL to get_sb_nodev(), but before that, it calls kill_anon_super() to destroy the superblock which won't be needed. This is however way too soon to call kill_anon_super(), because get_sb_nodev() has to perform its own cleanup of the superblock first (deactivate_super(), etc.). The correct time to call kill_anon_super() is in the autofs_kill_sb() callback, which is called by deactivate_super() at proper time, when the superblock is ready to be killed. I can see the same faulty codepath also in autofs4. This patch solves issues in both filesystems in a same way - it postpones the kill_anon_super() until the proper time is signalized by deactivate_super() calling the kill_sb() callback.

2006-12-07[PATCH] jbd2: wait for already submitted t_sync_datalist buffer to completeHisashi Hifumi
In the current jbd code, if a buffer on BJ_SyncData list is dirty and not locked, the buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list, submitted to the IO and waited for IO completion. But the fsstress test showed the case that when a buffer was already submitted to the IO just before the buffer_dirty(bh) check, the buffer was not waited for IO completion. Following patch solves this problem. If it is assumed that a buffer is submitted to the IO before the buffer_dirty(bh) check and still being written to disk, this buffer is refiled to BJ_Locked list.

2006-12-07[PATCH] dcache: avoid RCU for never-hashed dentriesEric Dumazet

2006-12-07[PATCH] don't insert pipe dentries into dentry_hashtable.Eric Dumazet
We currently insert pipe dentries into the global dentry hashtable. This is suboptimal because there is currently no way these entries can be used for a lookup(). (/proc/xxx/fd/xxx uses a different mechanism). Inserting them in dentry hashtable slows dcache lookups. To let __dpath() still work correctly (ie not adding a " (deleted)") after dentry name, we do : - Right after d_alloc(), pretend they are hashed by clearing the DCACHE_UNHASHED bit. - Call d_instantiate() instead of d_add() : dentry is not inserted in hash table. __dpath() & friends work as intended during dentry lifetime. - At dismantle time, once dput() must clear the dentry, setting again DCACHE_UNHASHED bit inside the custom d_delete() function provided by pipe code, so that dput() can just kill_it.

2006-12-07[PATCH] hotplug CPU: clean up hotcpu_notifier() useIngo Molnar
There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn, prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add #ifdefs. the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine: text data bss dec hex filename 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.before 1624412 728710 3674856 6027978 5bfaca vmlinux.after [akpm@osdl.org: topology.c fix] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-12-07[PATCH] elf: Always define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.hMagnus Damm
Define elf_addr_t in linux/elf.h. The size of the type is determined using ELF_CLASS. This allows us to remove the defines that today are spread all over .c and .h files.

2006-12-07[PATCH] remove the syslog interface when printk is disabledMike Galbraith
Attempts to read() from the non-existent dmesg buffer will return zero and userspace tends to get stuck in a busyloop. So just remove /dev/kmsg altogether if CONFIG_PRINTK=n.

2006-12-07[PATCH] retries in ext4_prepare_write() violate ordering requirementsAndrey Savochkin
In journal=ordered or journal=data mode retry in ext4_prepare_write() breaks the requirements of journaling of data with respect to metadata. The fix is to call commit_write to commit allocated zero blocks before retry.
