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.

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.

radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set() or radix_tree_tag_clear(). The problem is that the double tag_get() in radix_tree_tag_get(): if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset)) saw_unset_tag = 1; if (height == 1) { int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset); may see the value change due to the action of set/clear. RCU is no protection against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly. The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any functions reading the tree". The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the tag doesn't vary over time: BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag); This has been seen happening in FS-Cache: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held, and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from running concurrently with it.

Most drives from Seagate, Hitachi, and possibly other brands, do not allow LBA28 access to sector number 0x0fffffff (2^28 - 1). So instead use LBA48 for such accesses. This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has taken care to align partitions to 4KB boundaries. On misaligned systems, it is less likely to be encountered, since a 4KB read would end at 0x10000000 rather than at 0x0fffffff.

Commit 148f948b (vfs: Introduce new helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) broke the raw driver. We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync -> vfs_fsync_range. vfs_fsync_range has: if (!fop || !fop->fsync) { ret = -EINVAL; goto out; } But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method. We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely. I'm happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it is rarely used. The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver. My knowledge of the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over. If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

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.

I noticed that my KVM virtual machines were experiencing IDE issues resulting in processes stuck on waiting for buffers to complete. The root cause is of course race conditions in the ancient qemu backend that I'm using. However, the fact that the guest isn't recovering is a bug. I've tracked it down to the change made last year to dequeue requests at the start rather than at the end in the IDE layer. commit 8f6205cd Author: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Date: Fri May 8 11:53:59 2009 +0900 ide: dequeue in-flight request The problem is that the function ide_dma_timeout_retry does not requeue the current request, causing one request to be lost for each DMA timeout.

Scheduler's task migration events don't work because they always pass NULL regs perf_sw_event(). The event hence gets filtered in perf_swevent_add(). Scheduler's context switches events use task_pt_regs() to get the context when the event occured which is a wrong thing to do as this won't give us the place in the kernel where we went to sleep but the place where we left userspace. The result is even more wrong if we switch from a kernel thread. Use the hot regs snapshot for both events as they belong to the non-interrupt/exception based events family. Unlike page faults or so that provide the regs matching the exact origin of the event, we need to save the current context. This makes the task migration event working and fix the context switch callchains and origin ip.

The previous patch added explicit inclusion of either gfp.h or slab.h to the source files using them. This patch updates percpu.h such that slab.h is no longer included from percpu.h.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

In commit 9df93939 ("ext3: Use bitops to read/modify EXT3_I(inode)->i_state") ext3 changed its internal 'i_state' variable to use bitops for its state handling. However, unline the same ext4 change, it didn't actually change the name of the field when it changed the semantics of it. As a result, an old use of 'i_state' remained in fs/ext3/ialloc.c that initialized the field to EXT3_STATE_NEW. And that does not work _at_all_ when we're now working with individually named bits rather than values that get masked. So the code tried to mark the state to be new, but in actual fact set the field to EXT3_STATE_JDATA. Which makes no sense at all, and screws up all the code that checks whether the inode was newly allocated. In particular, it made the xattr code unhappy, and caused various random behavior, like apparently https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=577911 So fix the initialization, and rename the field to match ext4 so that we don't have this happen again.

Add new flag MSG_WAITFORONE for the recvmmsg() syscall. When this flag is specified for a blocking socket, recvmmsg() will only block until at least 1 packet is available. The default behavior is to block until all vlen packets are available. This flag has no effect on non-blocking sockets or when used in combination with MSG_DONTWAIT.

When the cgroup freezer is used to freeze tasks we do not want to thaw those tasks during resume. Currently we test the cgroup freezer state of the resuming tasks to see if the cgroup is FROZEN. If so then we don't thaw the task. However, the FREEZING state also indicates that the task should remain frozen. This also avoids a problem pointed out by Oren Ladaan: the freezer state transition from FREEZING to FROZEN is updated lazily when userspace reads or writes the freezer.state file in the cgroup filesystem. This means that resume will thaw tasks in cgroups which should be in the FROZEN state if there is no read/write of the freezer.state file to trigger this transition before suspend. NOTE: Another "simple" solution would be to always update the cgroup freezer state during resume. However it's a bad choice for several reasons: Updating the cgroup freezer state is somewhat expensive because it requires walking all the tasks in the cgroup and checking if they are each frozen. Worse, this could easily make resume run in N^2 time where N is the number of tasks in the cgroup. Finally, updating the freezer state from this code path requires trickier locking because of the way locks must be ordered. Instead of updating the freezer state we rely on the fact that lazy updates only manage the transition from FREEZING to FROZEN. We know that a cgroup with the FREEZING state may actually be FROZEN so test for that state too. This makes sense in the resume path even for partially-frozen cgroups -- those that really are FREEZING but not FROZEN.

The order of the IPv6 raw table is currently reversed, that makes impossible to use the NOTRACK target in IPv6: for example if someone enters ip6tables -t raw -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j NOTRACK and if we receive fragmented packets then the first fragment will be untracked and thus skip nf_ct_frag6_gather (and conntrack), while all subsequent fragments enter nf_ct_frag6_gather and reassembly will never successfully be finished.

In the extended CSD register the CARD_TYPE is an 8-bit value of which the upper 6 bits were reserved in JEDEC specifications prior to version 4.4. In version 4.4 two of the reserved bits were designated for identifying support for the newly added High-Speed Dual Data Rate. Unfortunately the mmc_read_ext_csd() function required that the reserved bits be zero instead of ignoring them as it should. This patch makes mmc_read_ext_csd() ignore the CARD_TYPE bits that are reserved or not yet supported. It also stops the function jumping to the end as though an error occurred, when it is only warns that the CARD_TYPE bits (that it does interpret) are invalid.

Commit 57fe60df ("reiserfs: add atomic addition of selinux attributes during inode creation") contains a bug that will cause it to oops when mounting a file system that didn't previously contain extended attributes on a system using security.* xattrs. The issue is that while creating the privroot during mount reiserfs_security_init calls reiserfs_xattr_jcreate_nblocks which dereferences the xattr root. The xattr root doesn't exist, so we get an oops.

The dma map fields in the skb_shared_info structure no longer has any users and can be dropped since it is making the skb_shared_info unecessarily larger. Running slabtop show that we were using 4K slabs for the skb->head on x86_64 w/ an allocation size of 1522. It turns out that the dma_head and dma_maps array made skb_shared large enough that we had crossed over the 2k boundary with standard frames and as such we were using 4k blocks of memory for all skbs.

This macro worked only when applied to variables named 'kobj'. While this could have been fixed by simply renaming the macro argument, a more type-safe replacement by an inline function would be preferred. However, nobody uses this macro, so it's simpler to just remove it. Signed-off-by: NFerenc Wagner <wferi@niif.hu> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

request_resource() and insert_resource() only return success or failure, which no information about what existing resource conflicted with the proposed new reservation. This patch adds request_resource_conflict() and insert_resource_conflict(), which return the conflicting resource. Callers may use this for better error messages or to adjust the new resource and retry the request.
