2006-06-17[PATCH] arm_timer: remove a racy and obsolete PF_EXITING checkOleg Nesterov
arm_timer() checks PF_EXITING to prevent BUG_ON(->exit_state) in run_posix_cpu_timers(). However, for some reason it does so only for CPUCLOCK_PERTHREAD case (which is imho wrong). Also, this check is not reliable, PF_EXITING could be set on another cpu without any locks/barriers just after the check, so it can't prevent from attaching the timer to the exiting task. The previous patch makes this check unneeded. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-06-17[PATCH] run_posix_cpu_timers: remove a bogus BUG_ON()Oleg Nesterov
do_exit() clears ->it_##clock##_expires, but nothing prevents another cpu to attach the timer to exiting process after that. arm_timer() tries to protect against this race, but the check is racy. After exit_notify() does 'write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock)' and before do_exit() calls 'schedule() local timer interrupt can find tsk->exit_state != 0. If that state was EXIT_DEAD (or another cpu does sys_wait4) interrupted task has ->signal == NULL. At this moment exiting task has no pending cpu timers, they were cleanuped in __exit_signal()->posix_cpu_timers_exit{,_group}(), so we can just return from irq.

2006-06-17[PATCH] check_process_timers: fix possible lockupOleg Nesterov
If the local timer interrupt happens just after do_exit() sets PF_EXITING (and before it clears ->it_xxx_expires) run_posix_cpu_timers() will call check_process_timers() with tasklist_lock + ->siglock held and check_process_timers: t = tsk; do { .... do { t = next_thread(t); } while (unlikely(t->flags & PF_EXITING)); } while (t != tsk); the outer loop will never stop. Actually, the window is bigger. Another process can attach the timer after ->it_xxx_expires was cleared (see the next commit) and the 'if (PF_EXITING)' check in arm_timer() is racy (see the one after that).

2006-06-17[PATCH] sky2: netconsole suspend/resume interactionStephen Hemminger
A couple of fixes that should prevent crashes when using netconsole and suspend/resume. First, netconsole poll routine shouldn't run unless the device is up; second, the NAPI poll should be disabled during suspend. This is only an issue on sky2, because it has to have one NAPI poll routine for both ports on dual port boards. Normal drivers use netif_rx_schedule_prep and that checks for netif_running.

2006-06-17[PATCH] fix cdrom openJens Axboe
Some time ago the cdrom open routine was changed so that we call the driver's open routine before checking to see if it is read only. However, if we discovered that a read write open was not possible and the open flags required a writable open, we just returned -EROFS without calling the driver's release routine. This seems to work for most cdrom drivers, but breaks the Powerpc iSeries virtual cdrom rather badly. This just inserts the release call in the error path to balance the call to "->open()" done by "open_for_data()".

2006-06-12[PATCH] tmpfs: time granularity fix for [acm]time going backwardsRobin H. Johnson
I noticed a strange behavior in a tmpfs file system the other day, while building packages - occasionally, and seemingly at random, make decided to rebuild a target. However, only on tmpfs. A file would be created, and if checked, it had a sub-second timestamp. However, after an utimes related call where sub-seconds should be set, they were zeroed instead. In the case that a file was created, and utimes(...,NULL) was used on it in the same second, the timestamp on the file moved backwards. After some digging, I found that this was being caused by tmpfs not having a time granularity set, thus inheriting the default 1 second granularity. Hugh adds: yes, we missed tmpfs when the s_time_gran mods went into 2.6.11. Unfortunately, the granularity of CURRENT_TIME, often used in filesystems, does not match the default granularity set by alloc_super. A few more such discrepancies have been found, but this is the most important to fix now. Signed-off-by: Robin H.

2006-06-11[TCP]: continued: reno sacked_out count fixAki M Nyrhinen
From: Aki M Nyrhinen <anyrhine@cs.helsinki.fi> IMHO the current fix to the problem (in_flight underflow in reno) is incorrect. it treats the symptons but ignores the problem. the problem is timing out packets other than the head packet when we don't have sack. i try to explain (sorry if explaining the obvious). with sack, scanning the retransmit queue for timed out packets is fine because we know which packets in our retransmit queue have been acked by the receiver. without sack, we know only how many packets in our retransmit queue the receiver has acknowledged, but no idea which packets. think of a "typical" slow-start overshoot case, where for example every third packet in a window get lost because a router buffer gets full. with sack, we check for timeouts on those every third packet (as the rest have been sacked). the packet counting works out and if there is no reordering, we'll retransmit exactly the packets that were lost. without sack, however, we check for timeout on every packet and end up retransmitting consecutive packets in the retransmit queue. in our slow-start example, 2/3 of those retransmissions are unnecessary. these unnecessary retransmissions eat the congestion window and evetually prevent fast recovery from continuing, if enough packets were lost.

2006-06-11[PATCH] Fix for the PPTP hangs that have been reportedPaul Mackerras
People have been reporting that PPP connections over ptys, such as used with PPTP, will hang randomly when transferring large amounts of data, for instance in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6530. I have managed to reproduce the problem, and the patch below fixes the actual cause. The problem is not in fact in ppp_async.c but in n_tty.c. What happens is that when pptp reads from the pty, we call read_chan() in drivers/char/n_tty.c on the master side of the pty. That copies all the characters out of its buffer to userspace and then calls check_unthrottle(), which calls the pty unthrottle routine, which calls tty_wakeup on the slave side, which calls ppp_asynctty_wakeup, which calls tasklet_schedule. So far so good. Since we are in process context, the tasklet runs immediately and calls ppp_async_process(), which calls ppp_async_push, which calls the tty->driver->write function to send some more output. However, tty->driver->write() returns zero, because the master tty->receive_room is still zero. We haven't returned from check_unthrottle() yet, and read_chan() only updates tty->receive_room _after_ calling check_unthrottle. That means that the driver->write call in ppp_async_process() returns 0. That would be fine if we were going to get a subsequent wakeup call, but we aren't (we just had it, and the buffer is now empty). The solution is for n_tty.c to update tty->receive_room _before_ calling the driver unthrottle routine. The patch below does this. With this patch I was able to transfer a 900MB file over a PPTP connection (taking about 25 minutes), whereas without the patch the connection would always stall in under a minute.

2006-06-11[PATCH] e1000: prevent statistics from getting garbled during resetLinas Vepstas
If a PCI bus error/fault triggers a PCI bus reset, attempts to get the ethernet packet count statistics from the hardware will fail, returning garbage data upstream.
