Recent changes to oldconfig have mixed up the silentoldconfig handling, so this fixes that by clearly separating that special mode, e.g. KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE is only relevant here, the .config is written as needed. This will also properly close Bug 11230. Signed-off-by: NRoman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The VFS interface for the 'd_compare()' is a bit special (read: 'odd'), because it really just essentially replaces a memcmp(). The filesystem is supposed to just compare the two names with whatever case-independent or other function. And when I say 'is supposed to', I obviously mean that 'procfs does odd things, and actually looks at the dentry that we don't even pass down, rather than just the name'. Which results in problems, because we actually call d_compare before we have even verified that the dentry is still hashed at all. And that causes a problm since the inode that procfs looks at may have been free'd and the d_inode pointer is NULL. procfs just assumes that all dentries are positive, since procfs itself never generates a negative one. But memory pressure will still result in the dentry getting torn down, and as it is removed by RCU, it still remains visible on some lists - and to d_compare. If the filesystem just did a name comparison, we wouldn't care. And we could just fix procfs to know about negative dentries too. But rather than have the low-level filesystems know about internal VFS details, just move the check for a unhashed dentry up a bit, so that we will only call d_compare on dentries that are still active. The actual oops this caused didn't look like a NULL pointer dereference because procfs did a 'container_of(inode, struct proc_inode, vfs_inode)' to get at its internal proc_inode information from the inode pointer, and accessed a field below the inode. So the oops would look something like BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffffffffff0 IP: [<ffffffff802bc6c6>] proc_sys_compare+0x36/0x50 and was seen on both x86-64 (Alexey Dobriyan and Hugh Dickins) and ppc64 (Hugh Dickins).

Yet another bug was found in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and while the source of the bug was found it wasn't an easy task to track it down because the conditions are very difficult to reproduce. A HUGE thank-you goes to Russell Cattelan and Eric Sandeen for their significant effort in tracking down the source of this corruption. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() are almost identical - they both compact indirect extent lists by moving extents from subsequent buffers into earlier ones. xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() only moves extents if all of the extents in the next buffer will fit into the empty space in the buffer before it. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() will go a step further and move part of the next buffer if all the extents wont fit. It will then shift the remaining extents in the next buffer up to the start of the buffer. The bug here was that we did not update er_extoff and this caused extent list corruption. It does not appear that this extra functionality gains us much. Calling xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() instead will do a good enough job at compacting the indirect list and will be quicker too. For the case in xfs_iext_indirect_to_direct() the total number of extents in the indirect list will fit into one buffer so we will never need the extra functionality of xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() there. Also xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() doesn't need to do a memmove() (the buffers will never overlap) so we don't want the performance hit that can incur.

Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM change events") changed how paths are flushed on an SM event. This change introduces a problem if the path record query triggered by fails, causing path->ah to become NULL. A later successful path query will then trigger WARN_ON() in path_rec_completion(), and crash because path->ah has already been freed, so the ipoib_put_ah() inside the lock in path_rec_completion() may actually drop the last reference (contrary to the comment that claims this is safe). Fix this by updating path->ah and freeing old_ah only when the path record query is successful. This prevents the neighbour AH and that path AH from getting out of sync.

p9_conn_destroy() first kills all current requests by calling p9_conn_cancel(), then waits for the request list to be cleared by waiting on p9_conn->equeue. After that, polling is stopped and the trans is destroyed. This sequence has a few problems. * Read and write works were never cancelled and the p9_conn can be destroyed while the works are running as r/w works remove requests from the list and dereference the p9_conn from them. * The list emptiness wait using p9_conn->equeue wouldn't trigger because p9_conn_cancel() always clears all the lists and the only way the wait can be triggered is to have another task to issue a request between the slim window between p9_conn_cancel() and the wait, which isn't safe under the current implementation with or without the wait. This patch fixes the problem by first stopping poll, which can schedule r/w works, first and cancle r/w works which guarantees that r/w works are not and will not run from that point and then calling p9_conn_cancel() and do the rest of destruction.

This patch (as1135) essentially reverts the major parts of two earlier patches to usbcore, because they ended up causing a regression. Trying to recover from transient communication errors can lead to other problems, because operations that failed during the error period are not always retried. The simplest example is the initial Set-Config request sent after device enumeration; if it gets lost then it will not be retried and the device will remain unconfigured. This patch restores the old behavior in which any port disconnect or port disable causes the entire device structure to be removed, fixing a reported regression.
