dequeue_signal: if (__SI_TIMER) { spin_unlock(&tsk->sighand->siglock); do_schedule_next_timer(info); spin_lock(&tsk->sighand->siglock); } Unless tsk == curent, this is absolutely unsafe: nothing prevents tsk from exiting. If signalfd was passed to another process, do_schedule_next_timer() is just wrong. Add yet another "tsk == current" check into dequeue_signal(). This patch fixes an oopsable bug, but breaks the scheduling of posix timers if the shared __SI_TIMER signal was fetched via signalfd attached to another sub-thread. Mostly fixed by the next patch.

sys_timer_create() sets ->it_process and unlocks ->siglock, then checks tmr->it_sigev_notify to define if get_task_struct() is needed. We already passed ->it_id to the caller, another thread can delete this timer and free its memory in between. As a minimal fix, move this code under ->siglock, sys_timer_delete() takes it too before calling release_posix_timer(). A proper serialization would be to take ->it_lock, we add a partly initialized timer on posix_timers_id, not good.

timer_delete does: lock_timer(); timer->it_process = NULL; unlock_timer(); release_posix_timer(); timer->it_process is checked in lock_timer() to prevent access to a timer, which is on the way to be deleted, but the check happens after idr_lock is dropped. This allows release_posix_timer() to delete the timer before the lock code can check the timer: CPU 0 CPU 1 lock_timer(); timer->it_process = NULL; unlock_timer(); lock_timer() spin_lock(idr_lock); timer = idr_find(); spin_lock(timer->lock); spin_unlock(idr_lock); release_posix_timer(); spin_lock(idr_lock); idr_remove(timer); spin_unlock(idr_lock); free_timer(timer); if (timer->......)

The new exec code inserts an accounted vma into an mm struct which is not current->mm. The existing memory check code has a hard coded assumption that this does not happen as does the security code. As the correct mm is known we pass the mm to the security method and the helper function. A new security test is added for the case where we need to pass the mm and the existing one is modified to pass current->mm to avoid the need to change large amounts of code.

The new rtc-m41t80 driver name doesn't match its module name, which prevents it from properly hotplugging. Since it's new, no platforms yet depend on that name ... so this patch fixes the driver name to match its module name, rather than going the other way around with a MODULE_ALIAS().

Lumpy reclaim works by selecting a lead page from the LRU list and then selecting pages for reclaim from the order-aligned area of pages. In the situation were all pages in that region are inactive and not referenced by any process over time, it works well. In the situation where there is even light load on the system, the pages may not free quickly. Out of a area of 1024 pages, maybe only 950 of them are freed when the allocation attempt occurs because lumpy reclaim returned early. This patch alters the behaviour of direct reclaim for large contiguous blocks. The first attempt to call shrink_page_list() is asynchronous but if it fails, the pages are submitted a second time and the calling process waits for the IO to complete. This may stall allocators waiting for contiguous memory but that should be expected behaviour for high-order users. It is preferable behaviour to potentially queueing unnecessary areas for IO. Note that kswapd will not stall in this fashion.

As pointed out by Mel when reclaim is applied at higher orders a significant amount of IO may be started. As this takes finite time to drain reclaim will consider more areas than ultimatly needed to satisfy the request. This leads to more reclaim than strictly required and reduced success rates. I was able to confirm Mel's test results on systems locally. These show that even under light load the success rates drop off far more than expected. Testing with a modified version of his patch (which follows) I was able to allocate almost all of ZONE_MOVABLE with a near idle system. I ran 5 test passes sequentially following system boot (the system has 29 hugepages in ZONE_MOVABLE): 2.6.23-rc1 11 8 6 7 7 sync_lumpy 28 28 29 29 26 These show that although hugely better than the near 0% success normally expected we can only allocate about a 1/4 of the zone. Using synchronous reclaim for these allocations we get close to 100% as expected. I have also run our standard high order tests and these show no regressions in allocation success rates at rest, and some significant improvements under load. This patch: We are transitioning pages from active to inactive in clear_active_flags, those need counting as PGDEACTIVATE vm events.

Reading the LSR clears the break, parity, frame error, and overrun bits in the 8250 chip, but these are not being saved in all places that read the LSR. Same goes for the MSR delta bits. Save the LSR bits off whenever the lsr is read so they can be handled later in the receive routine. Save the MSR bits to be handled in the modem status routine. Also, clear the stored bits and clear the interrupt registers before enabling interrupts, to avoid handling old values of the stored bits in the interrupt routines.

The uart_set_termios() function will bail out early without bothering to touch the hardware, if it decides that nothing "relevant" has changed. Unfortunately, its idea of "relevant" doesn't include c_[io]speed. So if the baud rate bits are BOTHER and you just change the speed, the change gets optimised away. This patch makes it ignore the old Bfoo bits in c_cflag and just check whether c_ispeed and c_ospeed have changed. Those integers are always set appropriately for us by set_termios().

Placing a kprobe on "bc" instruction (s390/s390x) can cause an oops. The instruction length is encoded into the first two bits of the s390 instruction. Kprobe is incorrectly computing the instruction length. The instruction length is used for determining what type of "fix-up" is needed for conditional branch instruction. The problem can bee seen by placing a kprobe on a "bc" instruction that will not branch. The results is that Kprobe incorrectly computes the new instruction pointer (psw.addr) after single stepping the instruction. The problem is corrected with this patch.
