2010-09-22aio: do not return ERESTARTSYS as a result of AIOJan Kara
OCFS2 can return ERESTARTSYS from its write function when the process is signalled while waiting for a cluster lock (and the filesystem is mounted with intr mount option). Generally, it seems reasonable to allow filesystems to return this error code from its IO functions. As we must not leak ERESTARTSYS (and similar error codes) to userspace as a result of an AIO operation, we have to properly convert it to EINTR inside AIO code (restarting the syscall isn't really an option because other AIO could have been already submitted by the same io_submit syscall).

2010-09-22vmscan: check all_unreclaimable in direct reclaim pathMinchan Kim
M. Vefa Bicakci reported 2.6.35 kernel hang up when hibernation on his 32bit 3GB mem machine. (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16771). Also he bisected the regression to commit bb21c7ce18eff8e6e7877ca1d06c6db719376e3c Author: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Date: Fri Jun 4 14:15:05 2010 -0700 vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages() return value when priority==0 reclaim failure At first impression, this seemed very strange because the above commit only chenged function return value and hibernate_preallocate_memory() ignore return value of shrink_all_memory(). But it's related. Now, page allocation from hibernation code may enter infinite loop if the system has highmem. The reasons are that vmscan don't care enough OOM case when oom_killer_disabled. The problem sequence is following as. 1. hibernation 2. oom_disable 3. alloc_pages 4. do_try_to_free_pages if (scanning_global_lru(sc) && !all_unreclaimable) return 1; If kswapd is not freozen, it would set zone->all_unreclaimable to 1 and then shrink_zones maybe return true(ie, all_unreclaimable is true). So at last, alloc_pages could go to _nopage_. If it is, it should have no problem. This patch adds all_unreclaimable check to protect in direct reclaim path, too. It can care of hibernation OOM case and help bailout all_unreclaimable case slightly.

This fixes the regression caused by the commit 6fee48cd330c68 ("dma-mapping: arm: use generic pci_set_dma_mask and pci_set_consistent_dma_mask"). ARM needs to clip the dma coherent mask for dmabounce devices. This restores the old trick. Note that strictly speaking, the DMA API doesn't allow architectures to do such but I'm not sure it's worth adding the new API to set the dma mask that allows architectures to clip it.

2010-09-22/proc/vmcore: fix seekingArnd Bergmann
Commit 73296bc611 ("procfs: Use generic_file_llseek in /proc/vmcore") broke seeking on /proc/vmcore. This changes it back to use default_llseek in order to restore the original behaviour. The problem with generic_file_llseek is that it only allows seeks up to inode->i_sb->s_maxbytes, which is zero on procfs and some other virtual file systems. We should merge generic_file_llseek and default_llseek some day and clean this up in a proper way, but for 2.6.35/36, reverting vmcore is the safer solution.

2010-09-22oom: always return a badness score of non-zero for eligible tasksDavid Rientjes
A task's badness score is roughly a proportion of its rss and swap compared to the system's capacity. The scale ranges from 0 to 1000 with the highest score chosen for kill. Thus, this scale operates on a resolution of 0.1% of RAM + swap. Admin tasks are also given a 3% bonus, so the badness score of an admin task using 3% of memory, for example, would still be 0. It's possible that an exceptionally large number of tasks will combine to exhaust all resources but never have a single task that uses more than 0.1% of RAM and swap (or 3.0% for admin tasks). This patch ensures that the badness score of any eligible task is never 0 so the machine doesn't unnecessarily panic because it cannot find a task to kill.

2010-09-22Prevent freeing uninitialized pointer in compat_do_readv_writevDan Rosenberg
In 32-bit compatibility mode, the error handling for compat_do_readv_writev() may free an uninitialized pointer, potentially leading to all sorts of ugly memory corruption. This is reliably triggerable by unprivileged users by invoking the readv()/writev() syscalls with an invalid iovec pointer. The below patch fixes this to emulate the non-compat version.

2010-09-22bdi: Fix warnings in __mark_inode_dirty for /dev/zero and friendsJan Kara
Inodes of devices such as /dev/zero can get dirty for example via utime(2) syscall or due to atime update. Backing device of such inodes (zero_bdi, etc.) is however unable to handle dirty inodes and thus __mark_inode_dirty complains. In fact, inode should be rather dirtied against backing device of the filesystem holding it. This is generally a good rule except for filesystems such as 'bdev' or 'mtd_inodefs'. Inodes in these pseudofilesystems are referenced from ordinary filesystem inodes and carry mapping with real data of the device. Thus for these inodes we have to use inode->i_mapping->backing_dev_info as we did so far. We distinguish these filesystems by checking whether sb->s_bdi points to a non-trivial backing device or not. Example: Assume we have an ext3 filesystem on /dev/sda1 mounted on /. There's a device inode A described by a path "/dev/sdb" on this filesystem. This inode will be dirtied against backing device "8:0" after this patch. bdev filesystem contains block device inode B coupled with our inode A. When someone modifies a page of /dev/sdb, it's B that gets dirtied and the dirtying happens against the backing device "8:16". Thus both inodes get filed to a correct bdi list.

This problem does not happen if kernel threads are in root group as root group is statically allocated at device initialization time and we don't hit this piece of code. Fix it by delaying the filling of major and minor number information of device in blk_group. Initially a blk_group is created with 0 as device information and this information is filled later once some more IO comes in from same group.

A userspace could submit a buffer with 0 length to be written to the host. Prevent such a situation. This was not needed previously, but recent changes in the way write() works exposed this condition to trigger a virtqueue event to the host, causing a NULL buffer to be sent across.

2010-09-21virtio: console: Fix poll blocking even though there is data to readHans de Goede
I found this while working on a Linux agent for spice, the symptom I was seeing was select blocking on the spice vdagent virtio serial port even though there were messages queued up there. virtio_console's port_fops_poll checks port->inbuf != NULL to determine if read won't block. However if an application reads enough bytes from inbuf through port_fops_read, to empty the current port->inbuf, port->inbuf will be NULL even though there may be buffers left in the virtqueue. This causes poll() to block even though there is data to be read, this patch fixes this by using will_read_block(port) instead of the port->inbuf != NULL check.

2010-09-20Staging: vt6655: fix buffer overflowDan Carpenter
"param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" comes from the user. We should check it so that the copy_from_user() doesn't overflow the buffer. Also further down in the function, we assume that if "param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" is set then "abyWPAIE[0]" is initialized. To make that work, I changed the test here to say that if "wpa_ie_len" is set then "wpa_ie" has to be a valid pointer or we return -EINVAL. Oddly, we only use the first element of the abyWPAIE[] array. So I suspect there may be some other issues in this function.

This reverts commit 96d592ed599434d2d5f339a1d282871bc6377d2c. The netfilter hook seems to be misused and may leak skbs in situations when NF_HOOK returns NF_STOLEN. It may not filter everything as expected. Also the ethernet bridge tables are not yet capable to understand batman-adv packet correctly. It was only added for testing purposes and can be removed again.

2010-09-20USB: otg: twl4030: fix phy initialization(v1)Ming Lei
Commit 461c317705eca5cac09a360f488715927fd0a927(into 2.6.36-v3) is put forward to power down phy if no usb cable is connected, but does introduce the two issues below: 1), phy is not into work state if usb cable is connected with PC during poweron, so musb device mode is not usable in such case, follows the reasons: -twl4030_phy_resume is not called, so regulators are not enabled i2c access are not enabled usb mode not configurated 2), The kernel warings[1] of regulators 'unbalanced disables' is caused if poweron without usb cable connected with PC or b-device. This patch fixes the two issues above: -power down phy only if no usb cable is connected with PC and b-device -do phy initialization(via __twl4030_phy_resume) if usb cable is connected with PC(vbus event) or another b-device(ID event) in twl4030_usb_probe. This patch also doesn't put VUSB3V1 LDO into active mode in twl4030_usb_ldo_init until VBUS/ID change detected, so we can save more power consumption than before. This patch is verified OK on Beagle board either connected with usb cable or not when poweron. [1]. warnings of 'unbalanced disables' of regulators.

During heavy aperture thrashing we may be forced to wait upon several active objects during eviction. The active list may be the last reference to these objects and so the action of waiting upon one of them may cause another to be freed (and itself unbound).
