2006-04-26[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end(), try #2Miklos Szeredi
A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was held due to a background request containing a file reference. Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would release the superblock. Since sbput_sem is held during the fput() and fuse_put_super() tries to acquire this same semaphore, a deadlock results. The solution is to move the fput() outside the region protected by sbput_sem.

2006-04-26Revert "[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end()"Miklos Szeredi
This reverts 73ce8355c243a434524a34c05cc417dd0467996e commit. It was wrong, because it didn't take into account the requirement, that iput() for background requests must be performed synchronously with ->put_super(), otherwise active inodes may remain after unmount. The right solution is to keep the sbput_sem and perform iput() within the locked region, but move fput() outside sbput_sem. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

2006-04-24[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: Fix module refcount dropping too farYasuyuki Kozakai
If nf_ct_l3proto_find_get() fails to get the refcount of nf_ct_l3proto_generic, nf_ct_l3proto_put() will drop the refcount too far. This gets rid of '.me = THIS_MODULE' of nf_ct_l3proto_generic so that nf_ct_l3proto_find_get() doesn't try to get refcount of it. It's OK because its symbol is usable until nf_conntrack.ko is unloaded. This also kills unnecessary NULL pointer check as well. __nf_ct_proto_find() allways returns non-NULL pointer.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: command duration updateKylene Jo Hall
With the TPM 1.2 Specification, each command is classified as short, medium or long and the chip tells you the maximum amount of time for a response to each class of command. This patch provides and array of the classifications and a function to determine how long the response should be waited for. Also, it uses that information in the command processing to determine how long to poll for. The function is exported so the 1.2 driver can use the functionality to determine how long to wait for a DataAvailable interrupt if interrupts are being used.

The following patch set contains numerous changes to the base tpm driver (tpm.c) to support the next generation of TPM chips. The changes include new sysfs files because of more relevant data being available, a function to access the timeout and duration values for the chip, and changes to make use of those duration values. Duration in the TPM specification is defined as the maximum amount of time the chip could take to return the results. Commands are in one of three categories short, medium and long.

2006-04-22[PATCH] add migratepage address space op to shmemLee Schermerhorn
Basic problem: pages of a shared memory segment can only be migrated once. In 2.6.16 through 2.6.17-rc1, shared memory mappings do not have a migratepage address space op. Therefore, migrate_pages() falls back to default processing. In this path, it will try to pageout() dirty pages. Once a shared memory page has been migrated it becomes dirty, so migrate_pages() will try to page it out. However, because the page count is 3 [cache + current + pte], pageout() will return PAGE_KEEP because is_page_cache_freeable() returns false. This will abort all subsequent migrations. This patch adds a migratepage address space op to shared memory segments to avoid taking the default path. We use the "migrate_page()" function because it knows how to migrate dirty pages. This allows shared memory segment pages to migrate, subject to other conditions such as # pte's referencing the page [page_mapcount(page)], when requested. I think this is safe. If we're migrating a shared memory page, then we found the page via a page table, so it must be in memory.
