2007-03-01[PATCH] Fix get_unmapped_area and fsync for hugetlb shm segmentsAdam Litke
This patch provides the following hugetlb-related fixes to the recent stacked shm files changes: - Update is_file_hugepages() so it will reconize hugetlb shm segments. - get_unmapped_area must be called with the nested file struct to handle the sfd->file->f_ops->get_unmapped_area == NULL case. - The fsync f_op must be wrapped since it is specified in the hugetlbfs f_ops. This is based on proposed fixes from Eric Biederman that were debugged and tested by me. Without it, attempting to use hugetlb shared memory segments on powerpc (and likely ia64) will kill your box.

2007-03-01[PATCH] tty_io: fix race in master pty close/slave pty close pathAristeu Sergio Rozanski Filho
This patch fixes a possible race that leads to double freeing an idr index. When the master begin to close, release_dev() is called and then pty_close() is called: if (tty->driver->close) tty->driver->close(tty, filp); This is done without helding any locks other than BKL. Inside pty_close(), being a master close, the devpts entry will be removed: #ifdef CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS if (tty->driver == ptm_driver) devpts_pty_kill(tty->index); #endif But devpts_pty_kill() will call get_node() that may sleep while waiting for &devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem. When this happens and the slave is being opened, tty_open() just found the driver and index: driver = get_tty_driver(device, &index); if (!driver) { mutex_unlock(&tty_mutex); return -ENODEV; } This part of the code is already protected under tty_mute. The problem is that the slave close already got an index. Then init_dev() is called and blocks waiting for the same &devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem. When the master close resumes, it removes the devpts entry, and the relation between idr index and the tty is gone. The master then sleeps waiting for the tty_mutex on release_dev(). Slave open resumes and found no tty for that index. As result, a NULL tty is returned and init_dev() doesn't flow to fast_track: /* check whether we're reopening an existing tty */ if (driver->flags & TTY_DRIVER_DEVPTS_MEM) { tty = devpts_get_tty(idx); if (tty && driver->subtype == PTY_TYPE_MASTER) tty = tty->link; } else { tty = driver->ttys[idx]; } if (tty) goto fast_track; The result of this, is that a new tty will be created and init_dev() returns sucessfull. After returning, tty_mutex is dropped and master close may resume. Master close finds it's the only use and both sides are closing, then releases the tty and the index. At this point, the idr index is free, but slave still has it. Slave open then calls pty_open() and finds that tty->link->count is 0, because there's no master and returns error. Then tty_open() calls release_dev() which executes without any warning, as it was a case of last slave close when the master is already closed (master->count == 0, slave->count == 1). The tty is then released with the already released idr index. This normally would only issue a warning on idr_remove() but in case of a customer's critical application, it's never too simple: thread1: opens master, gets index X thread1: begin closing master thread2: begin opening slave with index X thread1: finishes closing master, index X released thread3: opens master, gets index X, just released thread2: fails opening slave, releases index X <---- thread4: opens master, gets index X, init_dev() then find an already in use and healthy tty and fails If no more indexes are released, ptmx_open() will keep failing, as the first free index available is X, and it will make init_dev() fail because you're trying to "reopen a master" which isn't valid. The patch notices when this race happens and make init_dev() fail imediately. The init_dev() function is called with tty_mutex held, so it's safe to continue with tty till the end of function because release_dev() won't make any further changes without grabbing the tty_mutex. Without the patch, on some machines it's possible get easily idr warnings like this one: idr_remove called for id=15 which is not allocated.

2007-03-01[PATCH] sched: fix SMT scheduler bugIngo Molnar
The SMT scheduler incorrectly skips kernel threads even if they are runnable (but they are preempted by a higher-prio user-space task which got SMT-delayed by an even higher-priority task running on a sibling CPU). Fix this for now by only doing the SMT-nice optimization if the to-be-delayed task is the only runnable task. (This should cover most of the real-life cases anyway.) This bug has been in the SMT scheduler since 2.6.17 or so, but has only been noticed now by the active check in the dynticks code.

2007-03-01[PATCH] ext[34]: EA block reference count racing fixMingming Cao
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).

2007-03-01[PATCH] uml: host VDSO fixJeff Dike
This fixes a problem seen by a number of people running UML on newer host kernels. init would hang with an infinite segfault loop. It turns out that the host kernel was providing a AT_SYSINFO_EHDR of 0xffffe000, which faked UML into believing that the host VDSO page could be reused. However, AT_SYSINFO pointed into the middle of the address space, and was unmapped as a result. Because UML was providing AT_SYSINFO_EHDR and AT_SYSINFO to its own processes, these would branch to nowhere when trying to use the VDSO. The fix is to also check the location of AT_SYSINFO when deciding whether to use the host's VDSO.

2007-03-01[PATCH] throttle_vm_writeout(): don't loop on GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO allocationsAndrew Morton
throttle_vm_writeout() is designed to wait for the dirty levels to subside. But if the caller holds IO or FS locks, we might be holding up that writeout. So change it to take a single nap to give other devices a chance to clean some memory, then return.

Since the bay driver depends on the dock driver for proper notification, make this driver depend on the dock driver.

2007-03-01[PATCH] Bug in MM_RB debuggingDavid Miller
The code is seemingly trying to make sure that rb_next() brings us to successive increasing vma entries. But the two variables, prev and pend, used to perform these checks, are never advanced.

2007-03-01[PATCH] uml: fix host LDT lookup initialization locking, try 2Jeff Dike
Add some locking to host_ldt_entries to prevent racing when reading LDT information from the host. The locking is somewhat more careful than my previous attempt. Now, only the check of host_ldt_entries is locked. The lock is dropped immediately afterwards, and if the LDT needs initializing, that (and the memory allocations needed) proceed outside the lock. Also fixed some style violations.
