      NFS: Fix an unstable write data integrity race · 71d0a611
      Trond Myklebust 提交于
      Commit 2c61be0a (NFS: Ensure that the WRITE
      and COMMIT RPC calls are always uninterruptible) exposed a race on file
      close. In order to ensure correct close-to-open behaviour, we want to wait
      for all outstanding background commit operations to complete.
      
      This patch adds an inode flag that indicates if a commit operation is under
      way, and provides a mechanism to allow ->write_inode() to wait for its
      completion if this is a data integrity flush.

      Better explain the condition parameter of
      rcu_dereference_check() that describes the conditions under
      which the dereference is permitted to take place (and
      incorporate Yong Zhang's suggestion).  This condition is only
      checked under lockdep proving.

      rcu: Add rcu_access_pointer and rcu_dereference_protected · b62730ba
      Paul E. McKenney 提交于
      This patch adds variants of rcu_dereference() that handle
      situations where the RCU-protected data structure cannot change,
      perhaps due to our holding the update-side lock, or where the
      RCU-protected pointer is only to be fetched, not dereferenced.
      These are needed due to some performance concerns with using
      rcu_dereference() where it is not required, aside from the need
      for lockdep/sparse checking.
      
      The new rcu_access_pointer() primitive is for the case where the
      pointer is be fetch and not dereferenced.  This primitive may be
      used without protection, RCU or otherwise, due to the fact that
      it uses ACCESS_ONCE().
      
      The new rcu_dereference_protected() primitive is for the case
      where updates are prevented, for example, due to holding the
      update-side lock.  This primitive does neither ACCESS_ONCE() nor
      smp_read_barrier_depends(), so can only be used when updates are
      somehow prevented.

      NFSv4: fix delegated locking · 0df5dd4a
      Trond Myklebust 提交于
      Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a
      delegation since commit 8e469ebd (NFSv4:
      Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it).
      
      According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file
      (since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using
      delegated opens.
      
      The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is
      governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but
      gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the
      NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.

      libata: unlock HPA if device shrunk · 445d211b
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Some BIOSes don't configure HPA during boot but do so while resuming.
      This causes harddrives to shrink during resume making libata detach
      and reattach them.  This can be worked around by unlocking HPA if old
      size equals native size.
      
      Add ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA so that HPA unlocking can be controlled
      per-device and update ata_dev_revalidate() such that it sets
      ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA and fails with -EIO when the above condition is
      detected.
      
      This patch fixes the following bug.

      Input: matrix_keypad - allow platform to disable key autorepeat · 9d32c305
      H Hartley Sweeten 提交于
      In an embedded system the matrix_keypad driver might be used to
      interface with an external control panel and not an actual keyboard.
      On the control panel some of the keys could be used to turn on/off
      various functions.  If key autorepeat is enabled this causes the
      function to quickly toggle between the on and off states and makes
      operation difficult.
      
      Add an option in the platform-specific data to disable the key
      autorepeat.

      Fix up possibly racy module refcounting · 5fbfb18d
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Module refcounting is implemented with a per-cpu counter for speed.
      However there is a race when tallying the counter where a reference may
      be taken by one CPU and released by another.  Reference count summation
      may then see the decrement without having seen the previous increment,
      leading to lower than expected count.  A module which never has its
      actual reference drop below 1 may return a reference count of 0 due to
      this race.
      
      Module removal generally runs under stop_machine, which prevents this
      race causing bugs due to removal of in-use modules.  However there are
      other real bugs in module.c code and driver code (module_refcount is
      exported) where the callers do not run under stop_machine.
      
      Fix this by maintaining running per-cpu counters for the number of
      module refcount increments and the number of refcount decrements.  The
      increments are tallied after the decrements, so any decrement seen will
      always have its corresponding increment counted.  The final refcount is
      the difference of the total increments and decrements, preventing a
      low-refcount from being returned.

      ibft, x86: Change reserve_ibft_region() to find_ibft_region() · 042be38e

      This allows arch code could decide the way to reserve the ibft.
      
      And we should reserve ibft as early as possible, instead of BOOTMEM
      stage, in case the table is in RAM range and is not reserved by BIOS
      (this will often be the case.)
      
      Move to just after find_smp_config().
      
      Also when CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=y, We will not have reserve_bootmem() anymore.
