      [PATCH] suspend regression: sysfs deadlock · 266d4f40
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Suspend deadlocks when trying to unregister /sys/block/sr0.
      
      This comes from Oliver's commit 94bebf4d
      "Driver core: fix race in sysfs between sysfs_remove_file() and
      read()/write()".
      
      sysfs_write_file downs buffer->sem while calling flush_write_buffer, and
      flushing that particular write buffer entails downing buffer->sem in
      orphan_all_buffers, resulting in the obvious self-deadlock.

      [PATCH] fs: nobh_truncate_page() fix · 57bf63d6
      Dave Kleikamp 提交于
      This fixes a regression caused by 22c8ca78.
      
      nobh_prepare_write() no longer marks the page uptodate, so
      nobh_truncate_page() needs to do it.

      [PATCH] Fix 2.6.21 rfcomm lockups · 0de1517e
      Mark Lord 提交于
      Any attempt to open/use a bluetooth rfcomm device locks up
      scheduling completely on my machine.
      
      Interrupts (ping, alt-sysrq) seem to be alive, but nothing else.
      
      This was working fine in 2.6.20, broken now in 2.6.21-rc2-git*
      
      Reverting this change (below) fixes it:

      The simplest fix for this bug is to prevent sysfs_move_dir()
      from self-deadlocking when (old_parent == new_parent).
      
      This patch prevents total system lockup when using rfcomm devices.

      [PATCH] ext[34]: EA block reference count racing fix · 8a2bfdcb
      Mingming Cao 提交于
      There are race issues around ext[34] xattr block release code.
      
      ext[34]_xattr_release_block() checks the reference count of xattr block
      (h_refcount) and frees that xattr block if it is the last one reference it.
       Unlike ext2, the check of this counter is unprotected by any lock.
      ext[34]_xattr_release_block() will free the mb_cache entry before freeing
      that xattr block.  There is a small window between the check for the re
      h_refcount ==1 and the call to mb_cache_entry_free().  During this small
      window another inode might find this xattr block from the mbcache and reuse
      it, racing a refcount updates.  The xattr block will later be freed by the
      first inode without notice other inode is still use it.  Later if that
      block is reallocated as a datablock for other file, then more serious
      problem might happen.
      
      We need put a lock around places checking the refount as well to avoid
      racing issue.  Another place need this kind of protection is in
      ext3_xattr_block_set(), where it will modify the xattr block content in-
      the-fly if the refcount is 1 (means it's the only inode reference it).
      
      This will also fix another issue: the xattr block may not get freed at all
      if no lock is to protect the refcount check at the release time.  It is
      possible that the last two inodes could release the shared xattr block at
      the same time.  But both of them think they are not the last one so only
      decreased the h_refcount without freeing xattr block at all.
      
      We need to call lock_buffer() after ext3_journal_get_write_access() to
      avoid deadlock (because the later will call lock_buffer()/unlock_buffer
      () as well).

      Do not do a path_release after a path_lookup error.
