2008-08-21UIO: generic irq handling for some uio platform devicesMagnus Damm
This is V3 of uio_pdrv_genirq.c, a platform driver for UIO with generic IRQ handling code. This driver is very similar to the regular UIO platform driver, but is only suitable for devices that are connected to the interrupt controller using unique interrupt lines. The uio_pdrv_genirq driver includes generic interrupt handling code which disables the serviced interrupt in the interrupt controller and makes the user space driver responsible for acknowledging the interrupt in the device and reenabling the interrupt in the interrupt controller. Shared interrupts are not supported since the in-kernel interrupt handler will disable the interrupt line in the interrupt controller, and in a shared interrupt configuration this will stop other devices from delivering interrupts.

The new dev->power.status field should be initialized regardless of whether CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is enabled, and similarly dpm_sysfs_add() should be called whenever CONFIG_PM is enabled. The patch separates out the call to dpm_sysfs_add() from the call to device_pm_add(). As a result device_pm_add() can no longer return an error, so its return type is changed to void.

2008-08-20mm: xip/ext2 fix block allocation raceNick Piggin
XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with create=1. This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page lock to prevent such a situation. This causes ext2 to explode for one reason or another. Serialise those calls for the moment. For common usages today, I suspect get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks. In future as XIP technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require scalability, and rework the locking to suit.

2008-08-20mm: xip fix fault vs sparse page invalidate raceNick Piggin
XIP has a race between sparse pages being inserted into page tables, and sparse pages being zapped when its time to put a non-sparse page in. What can happen is that a process can be left with a dangling sparse page in a MAP_SHARED mapping, while the rest of the world sees the non-sparse version. Ie. data corruption. Guard these operations with a seqlock, making fault-in-sparse-pages the slowpath, and try-to-unmap-sparse-pages the fastpath.

2008-08-20mm: dirty page tracking race fixNick Piggin
There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly be accounted for. clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty. page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and write protects the pte if it was dirty. It uses page_check_address to find the pte. That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is not present. Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may be dirty. For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte before setting it to the desired value. There may also be other code in core mm or in arch which do similar things. The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and loss of dirty page accounting accuracy. XIP's __xip_unmap could easily also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can lead to data corruption. Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in page_check_address. It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and try_to_unmap.

2008-08-20bootmem: fix aligning of node-relative indexes and offsetsJohannes Weiner
Absolute alignment requirements may never be applied to node-relative offsets. Andreas Herrmann spotted this flaw when a bootmem allocation on an unaligned node was itself not aligned because the combination of an unaligned node with an aligned offset into that node is not garuanteed to be aligned itself. This patch introduces two helper functions that align a node-relative index or offset with respect to the node's starting address so that the absolute PFN or virtual address that results from combining the two satisfies the requested alignment. Then all the broken ALIGN()s in alloc_bootmem_core() are replaced by these helpers.

In case the binfmt_misc binary handler is registered *before* the e.g. script one (when for example being compiled as a module) the following situation may occur: 1. user launches a script, whose interpreter is a misc binary; 2. the load_misc_binary sets the misc_bang and returns -ENOEVEC, since the binary is a script; 3. the load_script_binary loads one and calls for search_binary_hander to run the interpreter; 4. the load_misc_binary is called again, but refuses to load the binary due to misc_bang bit set. The fix is to move the misc_bang setting lower - prior to the actual call to the search_binary_handler.

2008-08-20Reduce brokenness of CRIS headers_installDavid Woodhouse
I won't say 'fix', because they still look broken, although this will at least allow 'make ARCH=CRIS headers_install' to _complete_. For headers which are exported, we should probably choose between asm/arch-v10 and asm/arch-v32 by something that GCC defines -- we can't rely on a generated symlink. And we certainly can't export an arch/ directory which doesn't even exist. And the only thing that we seem to include from the arch/ directory is <asm/arch/ptrace.h> from <asm/ptrace.h> ... and that isn't exported in either arch-v10 or arch-v32 _anyway_.

2008-08-20vfat: fix 'sync' mount deadlock due to BKL->lock_super conversionLinus Torvalds
There was another FAT BKL conversion deadlock reported by Bart Trojanowski due to the BKL being used as a recursive lock by FAT, which was missed because it only triggers with 'sync' (or 'dirsync') mounts. The recursion worked for the BKL, but after the conversion to lock_super (which uses a mutex), it just deadlocks. Thanks to Bart for debugging this and testing the fix. The lock debugging information from the original report: ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.27-rc3-bisect-00448-ga7f5aaf #16 --------------------------------------------- mv/4020 is trying to acquire lock: (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 but task is already holding lock: (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 other info that might help us debug this: 3 locks held by mv/4020: #0: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9/1){--..}, at: [<c01b2336>] do_unlinkat+0x66/0x140 #1: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01b0954>] vfs_unlink+0x84/0x110 #2: (&type->s_lock_key#9){--..}, at: [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 stack backtrace: Pid: 4020, comm: mv Not tainted 2.6.27-rc3-bisect-00448-ga7f5aaf #16 [<c014e694>] validate_chain+0x984/0xea0 [<c0108d70>] ? native_sched_clock+0x0/0xf0 [<c014ee9c>] __lock_acquire+0x2ec/0x9b0 [<c014f5cf>] lock_acquire+0x6f/0x90 [<c01a90fe>] ? lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<c044e5fd>] mutex_lock_nested+0xad/0x300 [<c01a90fe>] ? lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<c01a90fe>] ? lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<c01a90fe>] lock_super+0x1e/0x20 [<f8b3a700>] fat_write_inode+0x60/0x2b0 [fat] [<c0450878>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x48/0x80 [<f8b3a953>] ? fat_sync_inode+0x3/0x20 [fat] [<f8b3a962>] fat_sync_inode+0x12/0x20 [fat] [<f8b37c7e>] fat_remove_entries+0xbe/0x120 [fat] [<f8b422ef>] vfat_unlink+0x5f/0x90 [vfat] [<f8b42290>] ? vfat_unlink+0x0/0x90 [vfat] [<c01b0968>] vfs_unlink+0x98/0x110 [<c01b2400>] do_unlinkat+0x130/0x140 [<c016a8f5>] ? audit_syscall_entry+0x105/0x150 [<c01b253b>] sys_unlinkat+0x3b/0x40 [<c01040d3>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x3f ======================= where the deadlock is due to the nesting of lock_super from vfat_unlink to fat_write_inode: - do_unlinkat - vfs_unlink - vfat_unlink * lock_super - fat_remove_entries - fat_sync_inode - fat_write_inode * lock_super and the fix is to simply remove the use of lock_super() in fat_write_inode. The lock_super() there had been just an automatic conversion of the kernel lock to the superblock lock, but no locking was actually needed there, since the code in fat_write_inode already protected all relevant accesses with a spinlock (sbi->inode_hash_lock to be exact). The only code inside the BKL (and thus the superblock lock) was accesses tp local variables or calls to functions that have long been SMP-safe (i.e. sb_bread, mark_buffe_dirty and brlese). Bart reports: "Looks good. I ran 10 parallel processes creating 1M files truncating them, writing to them again and then deleting them. This patch fixes the issue I ran into.
