2006-09-29[PATCH] mm: fix a race condition under SMC + COWSiddha, Suresh B
Failing context is a multi threaded process context and the failing sequence is as follows. One thread T0 doing self modifying code on page X on processor P0 and another thread T1 doing COW (breaking the COW setup as part of just happened fork() in another thread T2) on the same page X on processor P1. T0 doing SMC can endup modifying the new page Y (allocated by the T1 doing COW on P1) but because of different I/D TLB's, P0 ITLB will not see the new mapping till the flush TLB IPI from P1 is received. During this interval, if T0 executes the code created by SMC it can result in an app error (as ITLB still points to old page X and endup executing the content in page X rather than using the content in page Y). Fix this issue by first clearing the PTE and flushing it, before updating it with new entry. Hugh sayeth: I was a bit sceptical, in the habit of thinking that Self Modifying Code must look such issues itself: but I guess there's nothing it can do to avoid this one. Fair enough, what you're changing it to is pretty much what powerpc and s390 were already doing, and is a more robust way of proceeding, consistent with how ptes are set everywhere else. The ptep_clear_flush is a bit heavy-handed (it's anxious to return the pte that was atomically cleared), but we'd have to wander through lots of arches to get the right minimal behaviour. It'd also be nice to eliminate ptep_establish completely, now only used to define other macros/inlines: it always seemed obfuscation to me, what you've got there now is clearer. Let's put those cleanups on a TODO list. Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Acked-by: "David S.

2006-09-29[PATCH] convert s390 page handling macros to functionsHeiko Carstens
Convert s390 page handling macros to functions. In particular this fixes a problem with s390's SetPageUptodate macro which uses its input parameter twice which again can cause subtle bugs.

2006-09-29[PATCH] remove generic__raw_read_trylock()Matthew Wilcox
If the cpu has the lock held for write, is interrupted, and the interrupt handler calls read_trylock(), it's an instant deadlock. Now, Dave Miller has subsequently pointed out that we don't have any situations where this can occur. Nevertheless, we should delete generic__raw_read_lock (and its associated EXPORT to make Arjan happy) so that nobody thinks they can use it. Acked-by: "David S.

2006-09-28[Bluetooth]: Don't update disconnect timer for incoming connectionsMarcel Holtmann
In the case of device pairing the only safe method is to establish a low-level ACL link. In this case, the remote side should not use the disconnect timer to give the other side the chance to enter the PIN code. If the disconnect timer is used, the connection will be dropped to soon, because it is impossible to identify an actual user of this link.

2006-09-28[IPVS]: Make sure ip_vs_ftp ports are valid: module_param_array approachSimon Horman
I'm not entirely sure what happens in the case of a valid port, at best it'll be silently ignored. This patch ensures that the port values are unsigned short values, and thus always valid. This is a second take at fixing this problem, it is simpler and arguably more correct than the previous approach that was committed as 3f5af5b353ca36aca4f8a46e3da2172f669dbbbc.
