      [PATCH] ppc32: make -j12 all fails in uImage target · f13487c6
      由 Olaf Hering 提交于 
      make -j zImage may call if_changed twice at the same time, the result is a
corrupted vmlinux.gz

Write to a temporary file for the time being until someone with make skills
fix the serialization properly.

      [PATCH] s390: fadvise hint values. · 068e1b94
      由 Martin Schwidefsky 提交于 
      Add special case for the POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED and POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE hint
values for s390-64.  The user space values in the s390-64 glibc headers for
these two defines have always been 6 and 7 instead of 4 and 5.  All 64 bit
applications therefore use the "wrong" values.  To get these applications
working without recompiling the kernel needs to accept the "wrong" values.
Since the values for s390-31 are 4 and 5 the compat wrapper for fadvise64
and fadvise64_64 need to rewrite the values for 31 bit system calls.

      [PATCH] ppc32: fix destroy_context() race condition · ddca3b80
      由 Guillaume Autran 提交于 
      Fix for a race condition when a task gets preempted by another task while
executing the destroy_context(...) in a FEW_CONTEXTS environment.
mm->context == NO_CONTEXT but the context_map may indicate all contexts are
in use.

The solution to this problem is to disable kernel preemption while
destroying a MMU context.

      [PATCH] Fix soft lockup due to NTFS: VFS part and explanation · 88bd5121
      由 Anton Altaparmakov 提交于 
      Something has changed in the core kernel such that we now get concurrent
inode write outs, one e.g via pdflush and one via sys_sync or whatever.
This causes a nasty deadlock in ntfs.  The only clean solution
unfortunately requires a minor vfs api extension.

First the deadlock analysis:

Prerequisive knowledge: NTFS has a file $MFT (inode 0) loaded at mount
time.  The NTFS driver uses the page cache for storing the file contents as
usual.  More interestingly this file contains the table of on-disk inodes
as a sequence of MFT_RECORDs.  Thus NTFS driver accesses the on-disk inodes
by accessing the MFT_RECORDs in the page cache pages of the loaded inode
$MFT.

The situation: VFS inode X on a mounted ntfs volume is dirty.  For same
inode X, the ntfs_inode is dirty and thus corresponding on-disk inode,
which is as explained above in a dirty PAGE_CACHE_PAGE belonging to the
table of inodes ($MFT, inode 0).

What happens:

Process 1: sys_sync()/umount()/whatever...  calls __sync_single_inode() for
$MFT -> do_writepages() -> write_page for the dirty page containing the
on-disk inode X, the page is now locked -> ntfs_write_mst_block() which
clears PageUptodate() on the page to prevent anyone else getting hold of it
whilst it does the write out (this is necessary as the on-disk inode needs
"fixups" applied before the write to disk which are removed again after the
write and PageUptodate is then set again).  It then analyses the page
looking for dirty on-disk inodes and when it finds one it calls
ntfs_may_write_mft_record() to see if it is safe to write this on-disk
inode.  This then calls ilookup5() to check if the corresponding VFS inode
is in icache().  This in turn calls ifind() which waits on the inode lock
via wait_on_inode whilst holding the global inode_lock.

Process 2: pdflush results in a call to __sync_single_inode for the same
VFS inode X on the ntfs volume.  This locks the inode (I_LOCK) then calls
write-inode -> ntfs_write_inode -> map_mft_record() -> read_cache_page() of
the page (in page cache of table of inodes $MFT, inode 0) containing the
on-disk inode.  This page has PageUptodate() clear because of Process 1
(see above) so read_cache_page() blocks when tries to take the page lock
for the page so it can call ntfs_read_page().

Thus Process 1 is holding the page lock on the page containing the on-disk
inode X and it is waiting on the inode X to be unlocked in ifind() so it
can write the page out and then unlock the page.

And Process 2 is holding the inode lock on inode X and is waiting for the
page to be unlocked so it can call ntfs_readpage() or discover that
Process 1 set PageUptodate() again and use the page.

Thus we have a deadlock due to ifind() waiting on the inode lock.

The only sensible solution: NTFS does not care whether the VFS inode is
locked or not when it calls ilookup5() (it doesn't use the VFS inode at
all, it just uses it to find the corresponding ntfs_inode which is of
course attached to the VFS inode (both are one single struct); and it uses
the ntfs_inode which is subject to its own locking so I_LOCK is irrelevant)
hence we want a modified ilookup5_nowait() which is the same as ilookup5()
but it does not wait on the inode lock.

Without such functionality I would have to keep my own ntfs_inode cache in
the NTFS driver just so I can find ntfs_inodes independent of their VFS
inodes which would be slow, memory and cpu cycle wasting, and incredibly
stupid given the icache already exists in the VFS.

Below is a patch that does the ilookup5_nowait() implementation in
fs/inode.c and exports it.

ilookup5_nowait.diff:

Introduce ilookup5_nowait() which is basically the same as ilookup5() but
it does not wait on the inode's lock (i.e. it omits the wait_on_inode()
done in ifind()).

This is needed to avoid a nasty deadlock in NTFS.

      This patch:

	[PATCH] Remove i386_ksyms.c, almost

made files like smp.c do their own EXPORT_SYMBOLS.  This means that all
subarchitectures that override these symbols now have to do the exports
themselves.  This patch adds the exports for voyager (which is the most
affected since it has a separate smp harness).  However, someone should
audit all the other subarchitectures to see if any others got broken.
