      [PATCH] x86: pci_assign_unassigned_resources() update · 81d4af13
      由 Ivan Kokshaysky 提交于 
      I had some time to think about PCI assign issues in 2.6.13-rc series.

The major problem here is that we call pci_assign_unassigned_resources()
way too early - at subsys_initcall level. Therefore we give no chances
to ACPI and PnP routines (called at fs_initcall level) to reserve their
respective resources properly, as the comments in drivers/pnp/system.c
and drivers/acpi/motherboard.c suggest:

 /**
  * Reserve motherboard resources after PCI claim BARs,
  * but before PCI assign resources for uninitialized PCI devices
  */

So I moved the pci_assign_unassigned_resources() call to
pcibios_assign_resources() (fs_initcall), which should hopefully fix a
lot of problems and make PCIBIOS_MIN_IO tweaks unnecessary.

Other changes:
- remove resource assignment code from pcibios_assign_resources(), since
  it duplicates pci_assign_unassigned_resources() functionality and
  actually does nothing in 2.6.13;
- modify ROM assignment code as per Ben's suggestion: try to use firmware
  settings by default (if PCI_ASSIGN_ROMS is not set);
- set CARDBUS_IO_SIZE back to 4K as it's a wonderful stress test for
  various setups.

Confirmed by Tero Roponen <teanropo@cc.jyu.fi> (who had problems with
the 4kB CardBus IO size previously).

      [PATCH] Remove race between con_open and con_close · f786648b
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      [ Same race and same patch also by Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> ]

I have a laptop (G3 powerbook) which will pretty reliably hit a race
between con_open and con_close late in the boot process and oops in
vt_ioctl due to tty->driver_data being NULL.

What happens is this: process A opens /dev/tty6; it comes into
con_open() (drivers/char/vt.c) and assign a non-NULL value to
tty->driver_data.  Then process A closes that and concurrently process
B opens /dev/tty6.  Process A gets through con_close() and clears
tty->driver_data, since tty->count == 1.  However, before process A
can decrement tty->count, we switch to process B (e.g. at the
down(&tty_sem) call at drivers/char/tty_io.c line 1626).

So process B gets to run and comes into con_open with tty->count == 2,
as tty->count is incremented (in init_dev) before con_open is called.
Because tty->count != 1, we don't set tty->driver_data.  Then when the
process tries to do anything with that fd, it oopses.

The simple and effective fix for this is to test tty->driver_data
rather than tty->count in con_open.  The testing and setting of
tty->driver_data is serialized with respect to the clearing of
tty->driver_data in con_close by the console_sem.  We can't get a
situation where con_open sees tty->driver_data != NULL and then
con_close on a different fd clears tty->driver_data, because
tty->count is incremented before con_open is called.  Thus this patch
eliminates the race, and in fact with this patch my laptop doesn't
oops.

      [PATCH] zfcp: add rports to enable scsi_add_device to work again · 3859f6a2
      由 Andreas Herrmann 提交于 
      This patch fixes a severe problem with 2.6.13-rc7.

Due to recent SCSI changes it is not possible to add any LUNs to the zfcp
device driver anymore.  With registration of remote ports this is fixed.

      [PATCH] sg.c: fix a memory leak in devices seq_file implementation · 729d70f5
      由 Jan Blunck 提交于 
      I know that scsi procfs is legacy code but this is a fix for a memory leak.

While reading through sg.c I realized that the implementation of
/proc/scsi/sg/devices with seq_file is leaking memory due to freeing the
pointer returned by the next() iterator method.  Since next() might return
NULL or an error this is wrong.  This patch fixes it through using the
seq_files private field for holding the reference to the iterator object.

Here is a small bash script to trigger the leak. Use slabtop to watch
the size-32 usage grow and grow.

#!/bin/sh

while true; do
	cat /proc/scsi/sg/devices > /dev/null
done
