The following set of operations on a NFS client and server will cause server# mkdir a client# cd a server# mv a a.bak client# sleep 30 # (or whatever the dir attrcache timeout is) client# stat . stat: cannot stat `.': Stale NFS file handle Obviously, we should not be getting an ESTALE error back there since the inode still exists on the server. The problem is that the lookup code will call d_revalidate on the dentry that "." refers to, because NFS has FS_REVAL_DOT set. nfs_lookup_revalidate will see that the parent directory has changed and will try to reverify the dentry by redoing a LOOKUP. That of course fails, so the lookup code returns ESTALE. The problem here is that d_revalidate is really a bad fit for this case. What we really want to know at this point is whether the inode is still good or not, but we don't really care what name it goes by or whether the dcache is still valid. Add a new d_op->d_weak_revalidate operation and have complete_walk call that instead of d_revalidate. The intent there is to allow for a "weaker" d_revalidate that just checks to see whether the inode is still good. This is also gives us an opportunity to kill off the FS_REVAL_DOT special casing.

The ia64 function "thread_matches()" has no users since commit e868a55c ("[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()"). Remove it.

If the default iosched is built as module, the kernel may deadlock while trying to load the iosched module on device probe if the probing was running off async. This is because async_synchronize_full() at the end of module init ends up waiting for the async job which initiated the module loading. async A modprobe 1. finds a device 2. registers the block device 3. request_module(default iosched) 4. modprobe in userland 5. load and init module 6. async_synchronize_full() Async A waits for modprobe to finish in request_module() and modprobe waits for async A to finish in async_synchronize_full(). Because there's no easy to track dependency once control goes out to userland, implementing properly nested flushing is difficult. For now, make module init perform async_synchronize_full() iff module init has queued async jobs as suggested by Linus. This avoids the described deadlock because iosched module doesn't use async and thus wouldn't invoke async_synchronize_full(). This is hacky and incomplete. It will deadlock if async module loading nests; however, this works around the known problem case and seems to be the best of bad options.

We realized that the power usage field is never filled and when it is filled for tegra, the power_specified flag is not set causing all of these values to be reset when the driver is initialized with set_power_state(). However, the power_specified flag can be simply removed under the assumption that the states are always backward sorted, which is the case with the current code. This change allows the menu governor select function and the cpuidle_play_dead() to be simplified. Moreover, the set_power_states() function can removed as it does not make sense any more. Drop the power_specified flag from struct cpuidle_driver and make the related changes as described above. As a consequence, this also fixes the bug where on the dynamic C-states system, the power fields are not initialized.

After alloc_netdev*() call, some cfg80211 drivers provide they own ethtool_ops, but some do not. For them, wireless core provide generic cfg80211_ethtool_ops, which is assigned in NETDEV_REGISTER notify call: if (!dev->ethtool_ops) dev->ethtool_ops = &cfg80211_ethtool_ops; But after Eric's commit, dev->ethtool_ops is no longer NULL (on cfg80211 drivers without custom ethtool_ops), but points to &default_ethtool_ops. In order to fix the problem, provide function which will overwrite default_ethtool_ops and use it by wireless core.

lib/rbtree.c declared __rb_erase_color() as __always_inline void, and then exported it with EXPORT_SYMBOL. This was because __rb_erase_color() must be exported for augmented rbtree users, but it must also be inlined into rb_erase() so that the dummy callback can get optimized out of that call site. (Actually with a modern compiler, none of the dummy callback functions should even be generated as separate text functions). The above usage is legal C, but it was unusual enough for some compilers to warn about it. This change makes things more explicit, with a static __always_inline ____rb_erase_color function for use in rb_erase(), and a separate non-inline __rb_erase_color function for use in rb_erase_augmented call sites.

Eric Wong reported on 3.7 and 3.8-rc2 that ppoll() got stuck when waiting for POLLIN on a local TCP socket. It was easier to trigger if there was disk IO and dirty pages at the same time and he bisected it to commit 1fb3f8ca ("mm: compaction: capture a suitable high-order page immediately when it is made available"). The intention of that patch was to improve high-order allocations under memory pressure after changes made to reclaim in 3.6 drastically hurt THP allocations but the approach was flawed. For Eric, the problem was that page->pfmemalloc was not being cleared for captured pages leading to a poor interaction with swap-over-NFS support causing the packets to be dropped. However, I identified a few more problems with the patch including the fact that it can increase contention on zone->lock in some cases which could result in async direct compaction being aborted early. In retrospect the capture patch took the wrong approach. What it should have done is mark the pageblock being migrated as MIGRATE_ISOLATE if it was allocating for THP and avoided races that way. While the patch was showing to improve allocation success rates at the time, the benefit is marginal given the relative complexity and it should be revisited from scratch in the context of the other reclaim-related changes that have taken place since the patch was first written and tested.

The seccomp path was using AUDIT_ANOM_ABEND from when seccomp mode 1 could only kill a process. While we still want to make sure an audit record is forced on a kill, this should use a separate record type since seccomp mode 2 introduces other behaviors. In the case of "handled" behaviors (process wasn't killed), only emit a record if the process is under inspection. This change also fixes userspace examination of seccomp audit events, since it was considered malformed due to missing fields of the AUDIT_ANOM_ABEND event type.

In some cases, free_irq_cpu_rmap() is called while holding a lock (eg rtnl). This can lead to deadlocks, because it invokes flush_scheduled_work() which ends up waiting for whole system workqueue to flush, but some pending works might try to acquire the lock we are already holding. This commit uses reference-counting to replace irq_run_affinity_notifiers(). It also removes irq_run_affinity_notifiers() altogether.

Commit 702d1a6e ("memory-hotplug: fix kswapd looping forever problem") added an isolated pageblocks counter (nr_pageblock_isolate in struct zone) and used it to adjust free pages counter in zone_watermark_ok_safe() to prevent kswapd looping forever problem. Then later, commit 2139cbe6 ("cma: fix counting of isolated pages") fixed accounting of isolated pages in global free pages counter. It made the previous zone_watermark_ok_safe() fix unnecessary and potentially harmful (cause now isolated pages may be accounted twice making free pages counter incorrect). This patch removes the special isolated pageblocks counter altogether which fixes zone_watermark_ok_safe() free pages check.

This variable can be used to set desired id for next allocated IPC object. By default it's equal to -1 and old behaviour is preserved. If this variable is non-negative, then desired idr will be extracted from it and used as a start value to search for free IDR slot. Notes: 1) this patch doesn't guarantee that the new object will have desired id. So it's up to user space how to handle new object with wrong id. 2) After a sucessful id allocation attempt, "next_id" will be set back to -1 (if it was non-negative).

Unfortunately with !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED, (!PageHead) is false, and (PageHead) is true, for tail pages. If this is indeed the intended behavior, which I doubt because it breaks cache cleaning on some ARM systems, then the nomenclature is highly problematic. This patch makes sure PageHead is only true for head pages and PageTail is only true for tail pages, and neither is true for non-compound pages. [ This buglet seems ancient - seems to have been introduced back in Apr 2008 in commit 6a1e7f77: "pageflags: convert to the use of new macros". And the reason nobody noticed is because the PageHead() tests are almost all about just sanity-checking, and only used on pages that are actual page heads. The fact that the old code returned true for tail pages too was thus not really noticeable. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: NChristoffer Dall <cdall@cs.columbia.edu> Acked-by: NAndrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Will Deacon <Will.Deacon@arm.com> Cc: Steve Capper <Steve.Capper@arm.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org # 2.6.26+ Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Oleg pointed out that in a pid namespace the sequence. - pid 1 becomes a zombie - setns(thepidns), fork,... - reaping pid 1. - The injected processes exiting. Can lead to processes attempting access their child reaper and instead following a stale pointer. That waitpid for init can return before all of the processes in the pid namespace have exited is also unfortunate. Avoid these problems by disabling the allocation of new pids in a pid namespace when init dies, instead of when the last process in a pid namespace is reaped.

We cannot wait for transaction commit in journal_unmap_buffer() because we hold page lock which ranks below transaction start. We solve the issue by bailing out of journal_unmap_buffer() and jbd2_journal_invalidatepage() with -EBUSY. Caller is then responsible for waiting for transaction commit to finish and try invalidation again. Since the issue can happen only for page stradding i_size, it is simple enough to manually call jbd2_journal_invalidatepage() for such page from ext4_setattr(), check the return value and wait if necessary.

Using a seqlock for devnet_rename_seq is not a good idea, as device_rename() can sleep. As we hold RTNL, we dont need a protection for writers, and only need a seqcount so that readers can catch a change done by a writer.
