2006-03-06Add early-boot-safety check to cond_resched()Linus Torvalds
Just to be safe, we should not trigger a conditional reschedule during the early boot sequence. We've historically done some questionable early on, and the safety warnings in __might_sleep() are generally turned off during that period, so there might be problems lurking. This affects CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, which takes over might_sleep() to cause a voluntary conditional reschedule.

2006-03-06[PATCH] USB Serial: fix use-after-free bug in usb-serial coreGreg Kroah-Hartman
This fixes a use-after-free bug in the usb-serial core. It is simple to trigger this (open a usb-serial port, then yank the device out before closing the port.) Thanks to Stefan Seyfried <seife@suse.de> for reporting this, and to the slab debugging code which enabled it to be tracked down.

2006-03-06Fix "check_slabp" printout size calculationLinus Torvalds
We want to use the "struct slab" size, not the size of the pointer to same. As it is, we'd not print out the last <n> entry pointers in the slab (where <n> is ~10, depending on whether it's a 32-bit or 64-bit kernel). Gaah, that slab code was written by somebody who likes unreadable crud. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-03-05[SERIAL] Fix two bugs in parport_serialRussell King
Steinar H. Gunderson reported: - For some reason, it detects the 9845 as a 9735 -- it appears this is simply related to the ordering in parport_serial_pci_tbl[]. If we move the 9845 up above the 9735, it prints out 9710:9845, but no change in behaviour. (We didn't find out why this was the case; we left it alone since it didn't affect our problem.) - The card has no parallel port (at least no physical ones), yet it reports (via its subsystem ID of 0x0014) one parallel port and four serial ports. The probe for the parallel port fails, and the driver just aborts. Thus, it doesn't find the serial ports. Fix the debugging code to use dev_dbg, but don't bother displaying the PCI ID of the detected board (that's accessible via other means.) Also, arrange for parport_register() to return 0 even if it finds no ports. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2006-03-05[CIFS] Always match oplock break (cache notification) to the right tcpSteve French
session when multiply mounted. Fixes slow response when cifs client is mounted to shares on multiple servers and oplock break occurs (usually due to attempt to multiply open a file). When treeids on mutiple mounted shares match and we find the wrong match first, we searched for the wrong cached files to send oplock break response for which usually meant that no matching file was found and thus the server would have to timeout the notification. Oplock break timeout is about 20 seconds on some servers so this could cause significantly slower performance on file open calls in a few cases (in particular when multiple shares are mounted from multiple servers, tree ids match, and we have a cached file which is later opened multiple times). This was the most important of the bugs that was found and fixed at Connectathon (interoperability testing event) this week.

2006-03-02[PATCH] v9fs: simplify fid mappingEric Van Hensbergen
v9fs has been plagued by an over-complicated approach trying to map Linux dentry semantics to Plan 9 fid semantics. Our previous approach called for aggressive flushing of the dcache resulting in several problems (including wierd cwd behavior when running /bin/pwd). This patch dramatically simplifies our handling of this fid management. Fids will not be clunked as promptly, but the new approach is more functionally correct. We now clunk un-open fids only when their dentry ref_count reaches 0 (and d_delete is called). Another simplification is we no longer seek to match fids to the process-id or uid of the action initiator. The uid-matching will need to be revisited when we fix the security model.
