2008-07-25ext3: handle deleting corrupted indirect blocksDuane Griffin
While freeing indirect blocks we attach a journal head to the parent buffer head, free the blocks, then journal the parent. If the indirect block list is corrupted and points to the parent the journal head will be detached when the block is cleared, causing an OOPS. Check for that explicitly and handle it gracefully. This patch fixes the third case (image hdb.20000057.nullderef.gz) reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10882. Immediately above the change, in the ext3_free_data function, we call ext3_clear_blocks to clear the indirect blocks in this parent block. If one of those blocks happens to actually be the parent block it will clear b_private / BH_JBD. I did the check at the end rather than earlier as it seemed more elegant. I don't think there should be much practical difference, although it is possible the FS may not be quite so badly corrupted if we did it the other way (and didn't clear the block at all). To be honest, I'm not convinced there aren't other similar failure modes lurking in this code, although I couldn't find any with a quick review.

2008-07-25ext3: don't read inode block if the buffer has a write errorHidehiro Kawai
A transient I/O error can corrupt inode data. Here is the scenario: (1) update inode_A at the block_B (2) pdflush writes out new inode_A to the filesystem, but it results in write I/O error, at this point, BH_Uptodate flag of the buffer for block_B is cleared and BH_Write_EIO is set (3) create new inode_C which located at block_B, and __ext3_get_inode_loc() tries to read on-disk block_B because the buffer is not uptodate (4) if it can read on-disk block_B successfully, inode_A is overwritten by old data This patch makes __ext3_get_inode_loc() not read the inode block if the buffer has BH_Write_EIO flag. In this case, the buffer should have the latest information, so setting the uptodate flag to the buffer (this avoids WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_buffer_dirty().) According to this change, we would need to test BH_Write_EIO flag for the error checking. Currently nobody checks write I/O errors on metadata buffers, but it will be done in other patches I'm working on.

2008-07-25jbd: fix race between free buffer and commit transactionMingming Cao
journal_try_to_free_buffers() could race with jbd commit transaction when the later is holding the buffer reference while waiting for the data buffer to flush to disk. If the caller of journal_try_to_free_buffers() request tries hard to release the buffers, it will treat the failure as error and return back to the caller. We have seen the directo IO failed due to this race. Some of the caller of releasepage() also expecting the buffer to be dropped when passed with GFP_KERNEL mask to the releasepage()->journal_try_to_free_buffers(). With this patch, if the caller is passing the __GFP_WAIT and __GFP_FS to indicating this call could wait, in case of try_to_free_buffers() failed, let's waiting for journal_commit_transaction() to finish commit the current committing transaction, then try to free those buffers again.

2008-07-25ext3: correct mount option parsing to detect when quota options can be changedJan Kara
We should not allow user to change quota mount options when quota is just suspended. I would make mount options and internal quota state inconsistent. Also we should not allow user to change quota format when quota is turned on. On the other hand we can just silently ignore when some option is set to the value it already has (mount does this on remount).

2008-07-25gpio: mcp23s08 handles multiple chips per chipselectDavid Brownell
Teach the mcp23s08 driver about a curious feature of these chips: up to four of them can share the same chipselect, with the SPI signals wired in parallel, by matching two bits in the first protocol byte against two address lines on the chip. This is handled by three software changes: * Platform data now holds an array of per-chip structs, not just one chip's address and pullup configuration. * Probe() and remove() now use another level of structure, wrapping an instance of the original structure for each mcp23s08 chip sharing that chipselect. * The HAEN bit is set, so that the hardware address bits can no longer be ignored (boot firmware may not have enabled them). The "one struct per chip" preserves the guts of the current code, but platform_data will need minor changes. OLD: /* incorrect "slave" ID may not have mattered */ .slave = 3, .pullups = BIT(3) | BIT(1) | BIT(0), NEW: /* slave address _must_ match chip's wiring */ .chip[3] = { .is_present = true, .pullups = BIT(3) | BIT(1) | BIT(0), }, There's no change in how things _behave_ for spi_device nodes with a single mcp23s08 chip. New multi-chip configurations assign GPIOs in sequence, without holes. The spi_device just resembles a bigger controller, but internally it has multiple gpio_chip instances.

2008-07-25gpio: sysfs interfaceDavid Brownell
This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs. /sys/class/gpio /export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace /unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low /gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO /base ... (r/o) same as N /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1) GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging. Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute. Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file, helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off" requirements that don't merit full kernel support: echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export ... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23); use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it, when that GPIO can be used as both input and output. echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport ... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs resources associated with each exported GPIO. The additional I-space footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!). Since no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed. Related changes: * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip". When GPIO providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of that device instead of being "virtual" devices. * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have been updated. * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner" field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added. * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs. Those GPIOs are now flagged appropriately when the chip is registered. Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML.

2008-07-25kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed lockingSrinivasa D S
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on lot of functions (like on all systemcalls). Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP system compared to present kretprobe implementation. Solution: 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another lock for kretporbe object. 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list. To prevent deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe lock. 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash table.

2008-07-25inflate: refactor inflate malloc codeThomas Petazzoni
Inflate requires some dynamic memory allocation very early in the boot process and this is provided with a set of four functions: malloc/free/gzip_mark/gzip_release. The old inflate code used a mark/release strategy rather than implement free. This new version instead keeps a count on the number of outstanding allocations and when it hits zero, it resets the malloc arena. This allows removing all the mark and release implementations and unifying all the malloc/free implementations. The architecture-dependent code must define two addresses: - free_mem_ptr, the address of the beginning of the area in which allocations should be made - free_mem_end_ptr, the address of the end of the area in which allocations should be made. If set to 0, then no check is made on the number of allocations, it just grows as much as needed The architecture-dependent code can also provide an arch_decomp_wdog() function call. This function will be called several times during the decompression process, and allow to notify the watchdog that the system is still running. If an architecture provides such a call, then it must define ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG so that the generic inflate code calls arch_decomp_wdog(). Work initially done by Matt Mackall, updated to a recent version of the kernel and improved by me.

2008-07-25misc: add HP WMI laptop extras driverMatthew Garrett
This driver adds support for reading and configuring certain information on modern HP laptops with WMI BIOS interfaces. It supports enabling and disabling the ambient light sensor, querying attached displays and hard drive temperature, sending events on docking and querying the state of the dock and toggling the state of the wifi, bluetooth and wwan hardware via rfkill. It also makes the little "(i)" button work on machines that send that via WMI rather than via the keyboard controller.

2008-07-25call_usermodehelper(): increase reliabilityKOSAKI Motohiro
Presently call_usermodehelper_setup() uses GFP_ATOMIC. but it can return NULL _very_ easily. GFP_ATOMIC is needed only when we can't sleep. and, GFP_KERNEL is robust and better. thus, I add gfp_mask argument to call_usermodehelper_setup(). So, its callers pass the gfp_t as below: call_usermodehelper() and call_usermodehelper_keys(): depend on 'wait' argument. call_usermodehelper_pipe(): always GFP_KERNEL because always run under process context. orderly_poweroff(): pass to GFP_ATOMIC because may run under interrupt context.
