2008-06-12fat: relax the permission check of fat_setattr()OGAWA Hirofumi
New chmod() allows only acceptable permission, and if not acceptable, it returns -EPERM. Old one allows even if it can't store permission to on disk inode. But it seems too strict for users. E.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449080: With new one, rsync couldn't create the temporary file. So, this patch allows like old one, but now it doesn't change the permission if it can't store, and it returns 0. Also, this patch fixes missing check.

2008-06-12tcp: Revert 'process defer accept as established' changes.David S. Miller
This reverts two changesets, ec3c0982a2dd1e671bad8e9d26c28dcba0039d87 ("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - process as established") and the follow-on bug fix 9ae27e0adbf471c7a6b80102e38e1d5a346b3b38 ("tcp: Fix slab corruption with ipv6 and tcp6fuzz"). This change causes several problems, first reported by Ingo Molnar as a distcc-over-loopback regression where connections were getting stuck. Ilpo Järvinen first spotted the locking problems. The new function added by this code, tcp_defer_accept_check(), only has the child socket locked, yet it is modifying state of the parent listening socket. Fixing that is non-trivial at best, because we can't simply just grab the parent listening socket lock at this point, because it would create an ABBA deadlock. The normal ordering is parent listening socket --> child socket, but this code path would require the reverse lock ordering. Next is a problem noticed by Vitaliy Gusev, he noted: ---------------------------------------- >--- a/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >+++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >@@ -481,6 +481,11 @@ static void tcp_keepalive_timer (unsigned long data) > goto death; > } > >+ if (tp->defer_tcp_accept.request && sk->sk_state == TCP_ESTABLISHED) { >+ tcp_send_active_reset(sk, GFP_ATOMIC); >+ goto death; Here socket sk is not attached to listening socket's request queue. tcp_done() will not call inet_csk_destroy_sock() (and tcp_v4_destroy_sock() which should release this sk) as socket is not DEAD. Therefore socket sk will be lost for freeing. ---------------------------------------- Finally, Alexey Kuznetsov argues that there might not even be any real value or advantage to these new semantics even if we fix all of the bugs: ---------------------------------------- Hiding from accept() sockets with only out-of-order data only is the only thing which is impossible with old approach. Is this really so valuable? My opinion: no, this is nothing but a new loophole to consume memory without control. ---------------------------------------- So revert this thing for now.

2008-06-12ipv6: Fix duplicate initialization of rawv6_prot.destroyDavid S. Miller
In changeset 22dd485022f3d0b162ceb5e67d85de7c3806aa20 ("raw: Raw socket leak.") code was added so that we flush pending frames on raw sockets to avoid leaks. The ipv4 part was fine, but the ipv6 part was not done correctly. Unlike the ipv4 side, the ipv6 code already has a .destroy method for rawv6_prot. So now there were two assignments to this member, and what the compiler does is use the last one, effectively making the ipv6 parts of that changeset a NOP. Fix this by removing the: .destroy = inet6_destroy_sock, line, and adding an inet6_destroy_sock() call to the end of raw6_destroy(). Noticed by Al Viro. Signed-off-by: David S.

It would be interesting to see where the int3 comes from. Too bad, lockdep doesn't provide the register dump. The stacktrace also doesn't go further than the int3(), I wonder if this int3 came from userspace? The ltrace readme says "software breakpoints, like gdb", so I guess this is the case.

2008-06-12x86: fix endless page faults in mount_block_root for Linux 2.6Henry Nestler
Page faults in kernel address space between PAGE_OFFSET up to VMALLOC_START should not try to map as vmalloc. Fix rarely endless page faults inside mount_block_root for root filesystem at boot time. All 32bit kernels up to 2.6.25 can fail into this hole. I can not present this under native linux kernel. I see, that the 64bit has fixed the problem. I copied the same lines into 32bit part. Recorded debugs are from coLinux kernel 2.6.22.18 (virtualisation): http://www.henrynestler.com/colinux/testing/pfn-check-0.7.3/20080410-antinx/bug16-recursive-page-fault-endless.txt The physicaly memory was trimmed down to 192MB to better catch the bug. More memory gets the bug more rarely. Details, how every x86 32bit system can fail: Start from "mount_block_root", http://lxr.linux.no/linux/init/do_mounts.c#L297 There the variable "fs_names" got one memory page with 4096 bytes. Variable "p" walks through the existing file system types. The first string is no problem. But, with the second loop in mount_block_root the offset of "p" is not at beginning of page, the offset is for example +9, if "reiserfs" is the first in list. Than calls do_mount_root, and lands in sys_mount. Remember: Variable "type_page" contains now "fs_type+9" and not contains a full page. The sys_mount copies 4096 bytes with function "exact_copy_from_user()": http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1540 Mostly exist pages after the buffer "fs_names+4096+9" and the page fault handler was not called. No problem. In the case, if the page after "fs_names+4096" is not mapped, the page fault handler was called from http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/namespace.c#L1320 The do_page_fault gots an address 0xc03b4000. It's kernel address, address >= TASK_SIZE, but not from vmalloc! It's from "__getname()" alias "kmem_cache_alloc". The "error_code" is 0. "vmalloc_fault" will be call: http://lxr.linux.no/linux/arch/i386/mm/fault.c#L332 "vmalloc_fault" tryed to find the physical page for a non existing virtual memory area. The macro "pte_present" in vmalloc_fault() got a next page fault for 0xc0000ed0 at: http://lxr.linux.no/linux/arch/i386/mm/fault.c#L282 No PTE exist for such virtual address. The page fault handler was trying to sync the physical page for the PTE lockup. This called vmalloc_fault() again for address 0xc000000, and that also was not existing. The endless began... In normal case the cpu would still loop with disabled interrrupts. Under coLinux this was catched by a stack overflow inside printk debugs.

2008-06-12nommu: Correct kobjsize() page validity checks.Paul Mundt
This implements a few changes on top of the recent kobjsize() refactoring introduced by commit 6cfd53fc03670c7a544a56d441eb1a6cc800d72b. As Christoph points out: virt_to_head_page cannot return NULL. virt_to_page also does not return NULL. pfn_valid() needs to be used to figure out if a page is valid. Otherwise the page struct reference that was returned may have PageReserved() set to indicate that it is not a valid page. As discussed further in the thread, virt_addr_valid() is the preferable way to validate the object pointer in this case. In addition to fixing up the reserved page case, it also has the benefit of encapsulating the hack introduced by commit 4016a1390d07f15b267eecb20e76a48fd5c524ef on the impacted platforms, allowing us to get rid of the extra checking in kobjsize() for the platforms that don't perform this type of bizarre memory_end abuse (every nommu platform that isn't blackfin). If blackfin decides to get in line with every other platform and use PageReserved for the DMA pages in question, kobjsize() will also continue to work fine. It also turns out that compound_order() will give us back 0-order for non-head pages, so we can get rid of the PageCompound check and just use compound_order() directly. Clean that up while we're at it.

2008-06-12kbuild: ignore powerpc specific symbols in modpostSam Ravnborg
Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> wrote: We have a case in powerpc in which we want to link some library routines with all module objects. The routines are intended for handling out-of-line function call register save/restore so having them as EXPORT_SYMBOL() is counter productive (we do also need to link the same "library" code into the kernel). Without this patch a powerpc build would error out and fail to build modules with the added register save/restore module. There were two obvious solutions: 1) To link the .o file before the modpost stage 2) To ignore the symbols in modpost Option 1) was ruled out because we do not have any separate linking stage for single file modules. This patch implements option 2 - and do so only for powerpc.

2008-06-12sched: 64-bit: fix arithmetics overflowLai Jiangshan
(overflow means weight >= 2^32 here, because inv_weigh = 2^32/weight) A weight of a cfs_rq is the sum of weights of which entities are queued on this cfs_rq, so it will overflow when there are too many entities. Although, overflow occurs very rarely, but it break fairness when it occurs. 64-bits systems have more memory than 32-bit systems and 64-bit systems can create more process usually, so overflow may occur more frequently. This patch guarantees fairness when overflow happens on 64-bit systems. Thanks to the optimization of compiler, it changes nothing on 32-bit.

2008-06-12sched: fair group: fix overflow(was: fix divide by zero)Lai Jiangshan
I found a bug which can be reproduced by this way:(linux-2.6.26-rc5, x86-64) (use 2^32, 2^33, ...., 2^63 as shares value) # mkdir /dev/cpuctl # mount -t cgroup -o cpu cpuctl /dev/cpuctl # cd /dev/cpuctl # mkdir sub # echo 0x8000000000000000 > sub/cpu.shares # echo $$ > sub/tasks oops here! divide by zero. This is because do_div() expects the 2th parameter to be 32 bits, but unsigned long is 64 bits in x86_64. Peter Zijstra pointed it out that the sane thing to do is limit the shares value to something smaller instead of using an even more expensive divide. Also, I found another bug about "the shares value is too large": pid1 and pid2 are set affinity to cpu#0 pid1 is attached to cg1 and pid2 is attached to cg2 if cg1/cpu.shares = 1024 cg2/cpu.shares = 2000000000 then pid2 got 100% usage of cpu, and pid1 0% if cg1/cpu.shares = 1024 cg2/cpu.shares = 20000000000 then pid2 got 0% usage of cpu, and pid1 100% And a weight of a cfs_rq is the sum of weights of which entities are queued on this cfs_rq, so the shares value should be limited to a smaller value. I think that (1UL << 18) is a good limited value: 1) it's not too large, we can create a lot of group before overflow 2) it's several times the weight value for nice=-19 (not too small) Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-06-12net: Eliminate flush_scheduled_work() calls while RTNL is held.David S. Miller
If the RTNL is held when we invoke flush_scheduled_work() we could deadlock. One such case is linkwatch, it is a work struct which tries to grab the RTNL semaphore. The most common case are net driver ->stop() methods. The simplest conversion is to instead use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync() explicitly on the various work struct the driver uses. This is an OK transformation because these work structs are doing things like resetting the chip, restarting link negotiation, and so forth. And if we're bringing down the device, we're about to turn the chip off and reset it anways. So if we cancel a pending work event, that's fine here. Some drivers were working around this deadlock by using a msleep() polling loop of some sort, and those cases are converted to instead use cancel_{delayed_}work_sync() as well.

2008-06-12common implementation of iterative div/modJeremy Fitzhardinge
We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor. Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc. The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent gcc from performing the transformation. This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it to replace the open-coded versions I know about.
