2007-05-09Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplugRafael J. Wysocki
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

2007-05-09knfsd: simplify a 'while' condition in svcsock.cNeilBrown
This while loop has an overly complex condition, which performs a couple of assignments. This hurts readability. We don't really need a loop at all. We can just return -EAGAIN and (providing we set SK_DATA), the function will be called again. So discard the loop, make the complex conditional become a few clear function calls, and hopefully improve readability.

2007-05-09knfsd: fix resource leak resulting in module refcount leak for ↵Frank Filz
rpcsec_gss_krb5.ko I have been investigating a module reference count leak on the server for rpcsec_gss_krb5.ko. It turns out the problem is a reference count leak for the security context in net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c. The problem is that gss_write_init_verf() calls gss_svc_searchbyctx() which does a rsc_lookup() but never releases the reference to the context. There is another issue that rpc.svcgssd sets an "end of time" expiration for the context By adding a cache_put() call in gss_svc_searchbyctx(), and setting an expiration timeout in the downcall, cache_clean() does clean up the context and the module reference count now goes to zero after unmount. I also verified that if the context expires and then the client makes a new request, a new context is established. Here is the patch to fix the kernel, I will start a separate thread to discuss what expiration time should be set by rpc.svcgssd. Acked-by: "J.

2007-05-09RPC: add wrapper for svc_reserve to account for checksumJeff Layton
When the kernel calls svc_reserve to downsize the expected size of an RPC reply, it fails to account for the possibility of a checksum at the end of the packet. If a client mounts a NFSv2/3 with sec=krb5i/p, and does I/O then you'll generally see messages similar to this in the server's ring buffer: RPC request reserved 164 but used 208 While I was never able to verify it, I suspect that this problem is also the root cause of some oopses I've seen under these conditions: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227726 This is probably also a problem for other sec= types and for NFSv4. The large reserved size for NFSv4 compound packets seems to generally paper over the problem, however. This patch adds a wrapper for svc_reserve that accounts for the possibility of a checksum. It also fixes up the appropriate callers of svc_reserve to call the wrapper. For now, it just uses a hardcoded value that I determined via testing. That value may need to be revised upward as things change, or we may want to eventually add a new auth_op that attempts to calculate this somehow. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a good way to reliably determine the expected checksum length prior to actually calculating it, particularly with schemes like spkm3.

2007-05-08VFS: delay the dentry name generation on sockets and pipesEric Dumazet
1) Introduces a new method in 'struct dentry_operations'. This method called d_dname() might be called from d_path() to build a pathname for special filesystems. It is called without locks. Future patches (if we succeed in having one common dentry for all pipes/sockets) may need to change prototype of this method, but we now use : char *d_dname(struct dentry *dentry, char *buffer, int buflen); 2) Adds a dynamic_dname() helper function that eases d_dname() implementations 3) Defines d_dname method for sockets : No more sprintf() at socket creation. This is delayed up to the moment someone does an access to /proc/pid/fd/... 4) Defines d_dname method for pipes : No more sprintf() at pipe creation. This is delayed up to the moment someone does an access to /proc/pid/fd/...

2007-05-07slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter
I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by SLAB. I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is performed before each freeing of an object. I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually before the free. That also places the check near the code object manipulation of the object. Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree). There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors. This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for unimplemented flags from SLUB.

A call to getsockopt() can now retrieve the leaked information. To fix this problem the stack buffer given to copy_from_user() must be initialized with the current settings.

During the INIT/COOKIE-ACK collision cases, it's possible to get into a situation where the association id is not yet set at the time of the user event generation. As a result, user events have an association id set to 0 which will confuse applications. This happens if we hit case B of duplicate cookie processing. In the particular example found and provided by Oscar Isaula <Oscar.Isaula@motorola.com>, flow looks like this: A B ---- INIT-------> (lost) <---------INIT------ ---- INIT-ACK---> <------ Cookie ECHO When the Cookie Echo is received, we end up trying to update the association that was created on A as a result of the (lost) INIT, but that association doesn't have the ID set yet.

Sort out the MTU determination and handling in AF_RXRPC: (1) If it's present, parse the additional information supplied by the peer at the end of the ACK packet (struct ackinfo) to determine the MTU sizes that peer is willing to support. (2) Initialise the MTU size to that peer from the kernel's routing records. (3) Send ACKs rather than ACKALLs as the former carry the additional info, and the latter do not. (4) Declare the interface MTU size in outgoing ACKs as a maximum amount of data that can be stuffed into an RxRPC packet without it having to be fragmented to come in this computer's NIC. (5) If sendmsg() is given MSG_MORE then it should allocate an skb of the maximum size rather than one just big enough for the data it's got left to process on the theory that there is more data to come that it can append to that packet. This means, for example, that if AFS does a large StoreData op, all the packets barring the last will be filled to the maximum unfragmented size.

2007-05-03[TCP]: zero out rx_opt in tcp_disconnect()Srinivas Aji
When the server drops its connection, NFS client reconnects using the same socket after disconnecting. If the new connection's SYN,ACK doesn't contain the TCP timestamp option and the old connection's did, tp->tcp_header_len is recomputed assuming no timestamp header but tp->rx_opt.tstamp_ok remains set. Then tcp_build_and_update_options() adds in a timestamp option past the end of the allocated TCP header, overwriting TCP data, or when the data is in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[], overwriting skb_shinfo(skb) causing a crash soon after. (The issue was debugged from such a crash.) Similarly, wscale_ok and sack_ok also get set based on the SYN,ACK packet but not reset on disconnect, since they are zeroed out at initialization. The patch zeroes out the entire tp->rx_opt struct in tcp_disconnect() to avoid this sort of problem. Signed-off-by: Srinivas Aji <Aji_Srinivas@emc.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

I discovered that nf_nat_sip NATed the RTP address to the SIP one which was unnecessary but OK. However, in doing so it did not DNAT the destination address on the RTP traffic to the Cisco back to the original RTP address. This patch corrects this by noting down the RTP address and using it when the expectation fires.

2007-05-03[NETFILTER]: nf_nat_proto_gre: do not modify/corrupt GREv0 packets through NATJorge Boncompte
While porting some changes of the 2.6.21-rc7 pptp/proto_gre conntrack and nat modules to a 2.4.32 kernel I noticed that the gre_key function returns a wrong pointer to the GRE key of a version 0 packet thus corrupting the packet payload. The intended behaviour for GREv0 packets is to act like nf_conntrack_proto_generic/nf_nat_proto_unknown so I have ripped the offending functions (not used anymore) and modified the nf_nat_proto_gre modules to not touch version 0 (non PPTP) packets.

Add __dev_getfirstbyhwtype for callers that don't want a reference but some data from the device and thus need to take the rtnl anyway. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-05-03[NETLINK]: Kill CB only when socket is unusedHerbert Xu
Since we can still receive packets until all references to the socket are gone, we don't need to kill the CB until that happens. This also aligns ourselves with the receive queue purging which happens at that point. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
