2007-06-16shm: fix the filename of hugetlb sysv shared memoryEric W. Biederman
Some user space tools need to identify SYSV shared memory when examining /proc/<pid>/maps. To do so they look for a block device with major zero, a dentry named SYSV<sysv key>, and having the minor of the internal sysv shared memory kernel mount. To help these tools and to make it easier for people just browsing /proc/<pid>/maps this patch modifies hugetlb sysv shared memory to use the SYSV<key> dentry naming convention. User space tools will still have to be aware that hugetlb sysv shared memory lives on a different internal kernel mount and so has a different block device minor number from the rest of sysv shared memory.

2007-06-16hugetlb: fix get_policy for stacked shared memory filesAdam Litke
Here's another breakage as a result of shared memory stacked files :( The NUMA policy for a VMA is determined by checking the following (in the order given): 1) vma->vm_ops->get_policy() (if defined) 2) vma->vm_policy (if defined) 3) task->mempolicy (if defined) 4) Fall back to default_policy By switching to stacked files for shared memory, get_policy() is now always set to shm_get_policy which is a wrapper function. This causes us to stop at step 1, which yields NULL for hugetlb instead of task->mempolicy which was the previous (and correct) result. This patch modifies the shm_get_policy() wrapper to maintain steps 1-3 for the wrapped vm_ops. (akpm: the refcounting of mempolicies is busted and this patch does nothing to improve it) Signed-off-by: Adam Litke <agl@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: William Irwin <bill.irwin@oracle.com> Cc: dean gaudet <dean@arctic.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-06-16udf: fix possible leakage of blocksJan Kara
We have to take care that when we call udf_discard_prealloc() from udf_clear_inode() we have to write inode ourselves afterwards (otherwise, some changes might be lost leading to leakage of blocks, use of free blocks or improperly aligned extents). Also udf_discard_prealloc() does two different things - it removes preallocated blocks and truncates the last extent to exactly match i_size. We move the latter functionality to udf_truncate_tail_extent(), call udf_discard_prealloc() when last reference to a file is dropped and call udf_truncate_tail_extent() when inode is being removed from inode cache (udf_clear_inode() call). We cannot call udf_truncate_tail_extent() earlier as subsequent open+write would find the last block of the file mapped and happily write to the end of it, although the last extent says it's shorter.

2007-06-16SLUB: minimum alignment fixesChristoph Lameter
If ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to a value greater than 8 (SLUBs smallest kmalloc cache) then SLUB may generate duplicate slabs in sysfs (yes again) because the object size is padded to reach ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN. Thus the size of the small slabs is all the same. No arch sets ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN larger than 8 though except mips which for some reason wants a 128 byte alignment. This patch increases the size of the smallest cache if ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is greater than 8. In that case more and more of the smallest caches are disabled. If we do that then the count of the active general caches that is displayed on boot is not correct anymore since we may skip elements of the kmalloc array. So count them separately. This approach was tested by Havard yesterday.

2007-06-16Rework ptep_set_access_flags and fix sun4cBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Some changes done a while ago to avoid pounding on ptep_set_access_flags and update_mmu_cache in some race situations break sun4c which requires update_mmu_cache() to always be called on minor faults. This patch reworks ptep_set_access_flags() semantics, implementations and callers so that it's now responsible for returning whether an update is necessary or not (basically whether the PTE actually changed). This allow fixing the sparc implementation to always return 1 on sun4c.

2007-06-16uml: remove PAGE_SIZE from libc codeJeff Dike
Distros seem to be removing PAGE_SIZE from asm/page.h. So, the libc side of UML should stop using it. I replace it with UM_KERN_PAGE_SIZE, which is defined to be the same as PAGE_SIZE on the kernel side of the house. I could also use getpagesize(), but it's more important that UML have the same value of PAGE_SIZE everywhere. It's conceivable that it could be built with a larger PAGE_SIZE, and use of getpagesize() would break that badly. PAGE_MASK got the same treatment, as it is closely tied to PAGE_SIZE.

2007-06-16spi doc updatesDavid Brownell
Update two points in the SPI interface documentation: - Update description of the "chip stays selected after message ends" mode. In some cases it's required for correctness; it isn't just a performance tweak. (Yes: to use this mode on mult-device busses, another programming interface will be needed. One draft has been circulated already.) - Clarify spi_setup(), highlighting that callers must ensure that no requests are queued (can't change configuration except between I/Os), and that the device must be deselected when this returns (which is a key part of why it's called during device init).

2007-06-16cpuset: zero malloc - fix for old cpusetsPaul Jackson
The cpuset code to present a list of tasks using a cpuset to user space could write to an array that it had kmalloc'd, after a kmalloc request of zero size. The problem was that the code didn't check for writes past the allocated end of the array until -after- the first write. This is a race condition that is likely rare -- it would only show up if a cpuset went from being empty to having a task in it, during the brief time between the allocation and the first write. Prior to roughly 2.6.22 kernels, this was also a benign problem, because a zero kmalloc returned a few usable bytes anyway, and no harm was done with the bogus write. With the 2.6.22 kernel changes to make issue a warning if code tries to write to the location returned from a zero size allocation, this problem is no longer benign. This cpuset code would occassionally trigger that warning. The fix is trivial -- check before storing into the array, not after, whether the array is big enough to hold the store. Cc: "Eric W.

2007-06-16fix radeon setparam on 32/64 systems, harder.David Woodhouse
Commit 9b01bd5b284bbf519b726b39f1352023cb5e9e69 introduced a compat_ioctl handler for RADEON_SETPARAM, the sole purpose of which was to handle the fact that on i386, alignof(uint64_t)==4. Unfortunately, this handler was installed for _all_ 64-bit architectures, instead of only x86_64 and ia64. And thus it breaks 32-bit compatibility on every other arch, where 64-bit integers are aligned to 8 bytes in 32-bit mode just the same as in 64-bit mode. Arnd has a cunning plan to use 'compat_u64' with appropriate alignment attributes according to the 32-bit ABI, but for now let's just make the compat_radeon_cp_setparam routine entirely disappear on 64-bit machines whose 32-bit compat support isn't for i386. It would be a no-op with compat_u64 anyway.

2007-06-15block: always requeue !fs requests at the frontTejun Heo
SCSI marks internal commands with REQ_PREEMPT and push it at the front of the request queue using blk_execute_rq(). When entering suspended or frozen state, SCSI devices are quiesced using scsi_device_quiesce(). In quiesced state, only REQ_PREEMPT requests are processed. This is how SCSI blocks other requests out while suspending and resuming. As all internal commands are pushed at the front of the queue, this usually works. Unfortunately, this interacts badly with ordered requeueing. To preserve request order on requeueing (due to busy device, active EH or other failures), requests are sorted according to ordered sequence on requeue if IO barrier is in progress. The following sequence deadlocks. 1. IO barrier sequence issues. 2. Suspend requested. Queue is quiesced with part or all of IO barrier sequence at the front. 3. During suspending or resuming, SCSI issues internal command which gets deferred and requeued for some reason. As the command is issued after the IO barrier in #1, ordered requeueing code puts the request after IO barrier sequence. 4. The device is ready to process requests again but still is in quiesced state and the first request of the queue isn't REQ_PREEMPT, so command processing is deadlocked - suspending/resuming waits for the issued request to complete while the request can't be processed till device is put back into running state by resuming. This can be fixed by always putting !fs requests at the front when requeueing.

2007-06-15[TCP]: Fix logic breakage due to DSACK separationIlpo Järvinen
Commit 6f74651ae626ec672028587bc700538076dfbefb is found guilty of breaking DSACK counting, which should be done only for the SACK block reported by the DSACK instead of every SACK block that is received along with DSACK information.

2007-06-15[TCP]: Congestion control API RTT sampling fixIlpo Järvinen
Commit 164891aadf1721fca4dce473bb0e0998181537c6 broke RTT sampling of congestion control modules. Inaccurate timestamps could be fed to them without providing any way for them to identify such cases. Previously RTT sampler was called only if FLAG_RETRANS_DATA_ACKED was not set filtering inaccurate timestamps nicely. In addition, the new behavior could give an invalid timestamp (zero) to RTT sampler if only skbs with TCPCB_RETRANS were ACKed. This solves both problems.

2007-06-15splice: only check do_wakeup in splice_to_pipe() for a real pipeJens Axboe
We only ever set do_wakeup to non-zero if the pipe has an inode backing, so it's pointless to check outside the pipe->inode check. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-06-15splice: fix leak of pages on short splice to pipeJens Axboe
If the destination pipe is full and we already transferred data, we break out instead of waiting for more pipe room. The exit logic looks at spd->nr_pages to see if we moved everything inside the spd container, but we decrement that variable in the loop to decide when spd has emptied. Instead we want to compare to the original page count in the spd, so cache that in a local variable. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-06-15splice: adjust balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() callJens Axboe
As we have potentially dirtied more than 1 page, we should indicate as such to the dirty page balancing. So call balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_nr() and pass in the approximate number of pages we dirtied. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-06-15KVM: Prevent guest fpu state from leaking into the hostAvi Kivity
The lazy fpu changes did not take into account that some vmexit handlers can sleep. Move loading the guest state into the inner loop so that it can be reloaded if necessary, and move loading the host state into vmx_vcpu_put() so it can be performed whenever we relinquish the vcpu.
