On an nForce4-equipped machine with two SATA disk in raid1 setup using dmraid, we experienced frequent deadlock of the system under high i/o load. 'cat /dev/zero > ~/zero' was the most reliable way to reproduce them: Randomly after a few GB, 'cp' would be left in 'D' state along with kjournald and kmirrord. The functions cp and kjournald were blocked in did vary, but kmirrord's wchan always pointed to 'mempool_alloc()'. We've seen this pattern on 2.6.15 and 2.6.17 kernels. http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/4/20/142 indicates that this problem has been around even before. So much for the facts, here's my interpretation: mempool_alloc() first tries to atomically allocate the requested memory, or falls back to hand out preallocated chunks from the mempool. If both fail, it puts the calling process (kmirrord in this case) on a private waitqueue until somebody refills the pool. Where the only 'somebody' is kmirrord itself, so we have a deadlock. I worked around this problem by falling back to a (blocking) kmalloc when before kmirrord would have ended up on the waitqueue. This defeats part of the benefits of using the mempool, but at least keeps the system running. And it could be done with a two-line change. Note that mempool_alloc() clears the GFP_NOIO flag internally, and only uses it to decide whether to wait or return an error if immediate allocation fails, so the attached patch doesn't change behaviour in the non-deadlocking case. Path is against current git (2.6.18-rc4), but should apply to earlier versions as well. I've tested on 2.6.15, where this patch makes the difference between random lockup and a stable system.

This fixes CCID3 to give much closer performance to RFC4342. CCID3 is meant to alter sending rate based on RTT and loss. The performance was verified against: http://wand.net.nz/~perry/max_download.php For example I tested with netem and had the following parameters: Delayed Acks 1, MSS 256 bytes, RTT 105 ms, packet loss 5%. This gives a theoretical speed of 71.9 Kbits/s. I measured across three runs with this patch set and got 70.1 Kbits/s. Without this patchset the average was 232 Kbits/s which means Linux can't be used for CCID3 research properly. I also tested with netem turned off so box just acting as router with 1.2 msec RTT. The performance with this is the same with or without the patch at around 30 Mbit/s. Signed off by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

TCP over IPV6 would incorrectly inherit the GSO settings. This would cause kernel to send Tcp Segmentation Offload packets for IPV6 data to devices that can't handle it. It caused the sky2 driver to lock http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7050 and the e1000 would generate bogus packets. I can't blame the hardware for gagging if the upper layers feed it garbage. This was a new bug in 2.6.18 introduced with GSO support.

The existing unusual_devs entry for the UCR-61S2B appears to have too wide a revision range. It matches at least one device that doesn't respond to the initialization sequence.

Here is a patch against the CPCI hotplug core to fix up PCI resource assignment such that things will actually work when a hot inserted device is enabled. I mentioned this patch to you way back in April at ELC, but am only now out from under things enough to clean it up and submit it. I've basically cribbed the corresponding code from shpchp_pci.c, so there are no big surprises. If it's still possible, I wouldn't mind this going into 2.6.18, but it wouldn't be the end of the world if it went into 2.6.19.

there was a change in 2.6.17 which affected the order in which the PCI access methods are probed. this gives regressions on some machines with broken BIOS. the problem is that PCBIOS sometimes reports last bus wrong, leaving cardbus non-funcational. previously those system worked fine with direct access. The patch changes the PCI init code to have PCBIOS as last fallback, yet the PCBIOS code still has to run first to set pcibios_last_bus to the value reported by the BIOS. this is needed in case legacy PCI probing (arch/i386/pci/legacy.c) is used to detect peer busses. using direct access if available fixes the cardbus problems.

由 Hans de Goede 提交于
This patch contains 2 sets of fixes for the abituguru: 1) Much improved timeout handling, drasticly reducing the amount of timeout errors on some motherboards 2) Fix the exit paths in the bank1 sensor type detect code to always restore the original settings even on an error. Without this our special test settings could remain seriously confusing the system BIOS's setup menu. Both are very much related and are must haves, to avoid messing up the uguru CMOS settings. Detailed changes: - Much improved timeout / wait for status handling. Many thanks to Sunil Kumar, for all his testing, ideas and patches! The code now first busy waits, polling the uguru for the expected status as this usually succeeds pretty quickly (within 90 reads). To avoid unnecessary CPU burn in timeout conditions, the amount of busy waiting has been halved from previous versions (120 tries instead of 250). This is not a problem, because this version goes to sleep after 120 attemps for 1 jiffy and then tries again, it does this sleep and try again 5 times before finally giving up. This (almost?) completly removes the timeout errors some people have seen regulary. Apparently some older uguru versions sometimes are distracted for a (relatively) long time. This solves this. - These timeout errors not only occur in the sending address part of reading the uguru but also in the wait for read state, so errors in this state are now handled as retryable just like send address state errors and are only logged and reported to userspace if 3 executive tries fail. - Fix a very nasty bug in the bank1 sensor type detection code, where it would not restore the original settings in any of the error paths! - Since not successfully restoring the original settings can seriously confuse the system BIOS (hang when entering the relevant setup menu), we now try restoring them 3 times before giving up.

The tps65010.c driver in the main tree never got updated with build fixes since the last batch of I2C driver changes; and the genirq trigger flags were updated wierdly too. This also includes a minor tweak to reduce the frequency used to poll for unplug-the-AC-power on the TPS chips that don't provide relevant IRQs. It _would_ be nice to sense whether there's even a battery, but that'd normally be an HDQ/1-wire interface to a smart battery, and such APIs aren't standardized.

The callers of scsi_send_eh_cmnd are setting the cmnd buffer, and then scsi_send_eh_cmnd is copying that updated buffer to the old_cmnd variable. Then after the command runs, we end up copying that old_cmnd var which has the new cmnd to the scsi command buffer. When this command gets recent, all types of fun things happen like getting TUR or START_STOP commands with data and scatterlists. This patch made against scsi-rc-fixes, has the callers of scsi_send_eh_cmnd pass in the command so scsi_send_eh_cmnd can do the right thing. This should go into 2.6.18 since this fixes a regression added when we removed some of the scsi_cmnd fields and replaced them with local variables.

Original code attempts to retry PLOGIs to fcports that are FCP_TARGETs only. If the driver never performed a successful PLOGI/PRLI, the port-type would never be assigned, and the relogin logic would silently drop the request (and thus the port would not be recognized and registered).

Currently, the access() call will return incorrect information on NFS if there exists an ACL that grants execute access to the user on a regular file. The reason the information is incorrect is that the VFS overrides this execute access in open_exec() by checking (inode->i_mode & 0111).
