NFS appears to use d_obtain_alias() to create the root dentry rather than
d_make_root. This can cause 'prepend_path()' to complain that the root
has a weird name if an NFS filesystem is lazily unmounted. e.g. if
"/mnt" is an NFS mount then
{ cd /mnt; umount -l /mnt ; ls -l /proc/self/cwd; }
will cause a WARN message like
WARNING: at /home/git/linux/fs/dcache.c:2624 prepend_path+0x1d7/0x1e0()

to appear in kernel logs.
So change d_obtain_alias() to use "/" rather than "" as the anonymous

tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains
a comment about that, but it doesn't help.
The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is
snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed.
The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to
cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was
converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask.
Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read
from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed.
The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe
can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

1. it wrongly assumes that !list_empty(d_subdirs) means that this
dir should be removed.
This is not that bad by itself, but:
2. if d_subdirs does not becomes empty after __debugfs_remove()
it gives up and silently fails, it doesn't even try to remove
other entries.
However ->d_subdirs can be non-empty because it still has the
already deleted !debugfs_positive() entries.
3. simple_release_fs() is called even if __debugfs_remove() fails.
Suppose we have
dir1/
dir2/
file2
file1
and someone opens dir1/dir2/file2.
Now, debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1/dir2) succeeds, and dir1/dir2 goes
away.
But debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1) silently fails and doesn't remove
this directory. Because it tries to delete (the already deleted)
dir1/dir2/file2 again and then fails due to "Avoid infinite loop"
logic.
And after that it is not possible to create another probe entry.
With this patch debugfs_remove_recursive() skips !debugfs_positive()
files although this is not strictly needed. The most important change
is that it does not try to make ->d_subdirs empty, it simply scans
the whole list(s) recursively and removes as much as possible.
If a port gets unplugged while a user is blocked on read(), -ENODEV is
returned. However, subsequent read()s returned 0, indicating there's no
host-side connection (but not indicating the device went away).
This also happened when a port was unplugged and the user didn't have
any blocking operation pending. If the user didn't monitor the SIGIO
signal, they won't have a chance to find out if the port went away.
Fix by returning -ENODEV on all read()s after the port gets unplugged.

We used to keep the port's char device structs and the /sys entries
around till the last reference to the port was dropped. This is
actually unnecessary, and resulted in buggy behaviour:
1. Open port in guest
2. Hot-unplug port
3. Hot-plug a port with the same 'name' property as the unplugged one
This resulted in hot-plug being unsuccessful, as a port with the same
name already exists (even though it was unplugged).
This behaviour resulted in a warning message like this one:
Instead of relying on guest applications to release all references to
the ports, we should go ahead and unregister the port from all the core
layers. Any open/read calls on the port will then just return errors,
and an unplug/plug operation on the host will succeed as expected.
This also caused buggy behaviour in case of the device removal (not just
a port): when the device was removed (which means all ports on that
device are removed automatically as well), the ports with active
users would clean up only when the last references were dropped -- and
it would be too late then to be referencing char device pointers,
resulting in oopses:
Between open() being called and processed, the port can be unplugged.
Check if this happened, and bail out.
A simple test script to reproduce this is:
while true; do for i in $(seq 1 100); do echo $i > /dev/vport0p3; done; done;
This opens and closes the port a lot of times; unplugging the port while
this is happening triggers the bug.

usbnet doesn't support yet SG, so drivers should not advertise SG or TSO

need to be linearized and might use order-5 pages.
This adds an extra copy overhead and possible allocation failures.
Current code ignore skb_linearize() return code so crashes are even

Best is to not pretend SG/TSO is supported, and add this again when/if

In commit 2f94aabd9f6c925d77aecb3ff020f1cc12ed8f86
(refactor sctp_outq_teardown to insure proper re-initalization)
we modified sctp_outq_teardown to use sctp_outq_init to fully re-initalize the
outq structure. Steve West recently asked me why I removed the q->error = 0
initalization from sctp_outq_teardown. I did so because I was operating under
the impression that sctp_outq_init would properly initalize that value for us,
but it doesn't. sctp_outq_init operates under the assumption that the outq
struct is all 0's (as it is when called from sctp_association_init), but using
it in __sctp_outq_teardown violates that assumption. We should do a memset in
sctp_outq_init to ensure that the entire structure is in a known state there
instead.

An rmdir pushes css's ref count to zero. However, if the associated
directory is open at the time, the dentry ref count is non-zero. If
the fd for this directory is then passed into perf_event_open, it
does a css_get(). This bounces the ref count back up from zero. This
is a problem by itself. But what makes it turn into a crash is the
fact that we end up doing an extra dput, since we perform a dput
when css_put sees the ref count go down to zero.
css_tryget() does not fall into that trap. So, we use that instead.

When we have group with mixed events (hw/sw) we want to end up
with group leader being in hw context. So if group leader is

The move is done for each event by removing it from its context
and adding it back into proper one. As a part of the removal the
event is automatically disabled, which is not what we want at
this stage of creating groups.
The fix is to initialize event state after removal from sw

The _BIX method returns extended battery info as a package.
According the ACPI spec (ACPI 5, Section 10.2.2.2), the first member
of that package should be "Revision". However, the current ACPI
battery driver treats the first member as "Power Unit" which should
be the second member. This causes the result of _BIX return data
parsing to be incorrect.
Fix this by adding a new member called 'revision' to struct
acpi_battery and adding the offsetof() information on it to
extended_info_offsets[] as the first row.

Note also that reordering operations i.e. first call to
rt2x00queue_pause_queue() and then clear QUEUE_STARTED bit, will race
with rt2x00queue_unpause_queue(), so calling ieee80211_stop_queue()

This is problematic because it causes the code to access

there will drop packets erroneously.

frames.

Without this patch the driver waits ~1 ms for the UART to become idle. At
115200n8 this time is (theoretically) enough to transfer 11.5 characters
(= 115200 bits/s / (10 Bits/char) * 1ms). As the mxs-auart has a fifo size
of 16 characters the clock is gated too early. The problem is worse for
lower baud rates.
This only happens to really shut down the transmitter in the middle of a
transfer if /dev/ttyAPPx isn't opened in userspace (e.g. by a getty) but
was at least once (because the bootloader doesn't disable the transmitter).
So increase the timeout to 20 ms which should be enough for 9600n8, too.
Moreover skip gating the clock if the timeout is elapsed.
The handler needs to ack the pending events before actually handling them.
Otherwise a new event might come in after it it considered non-pending or
handled and is acked then without being handled. So this event is only
noticed when the next interrupt happens.
Without this patch an i.MX28 based machine running an rt-patched kernel
regularly hangs during boot.
The logic for the memory-remove code fails to correctly account the
Total High Memory when a memory block which contains High Memory is
offlined as shown in the example below. The following patch fixes it.
virtio net called virtqueue_enable_cq on RX path after napi_complete, so
with NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear - outside the implicit napi lock.
This violates the requirement to synchronize virtqueue_enable_cq wrt
virtqueue_add_buf. In particular, used event can move backwards,
causing us to lose interrupts.
In a debug build, this can trigger panic within START_USE.
Jason Wang reports that he can trigger the races artificially,
by adding udelay() in virtqueue_enable_cb() after virtio_mb().
However, we must call napi_complete to clear NAPI_STATE_SCHED before
polling the virtqueue for used buffers, otherwise napi_schedule_prep in
a callback will fail, causing us to lose RX events.
To fix, call virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare with NAPI_STATE_SCHED
set (under napi lock), later call virtqueue_poll with
NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear (outside the lock).

Unbinding an event channel (either with the ioctl or when the evtchn
device is closed) may deadlock because disable_irq() is called with
port_user_lock held which is also locked by the interrupt handler.
Think of the IOCTL_EVTCHN_UNBIND is being serviced, the routine has
just taken the lock, and an interrupt happens. The evtchn_interrupt
is invoked, tries to take the lock and spins forever.
A quick glance at the code shows that the spinlock is a local IRQ
variant. Unfortunately that does not help as "disable_irq() waits for
the interrupt handler on all CPUs to stop running. If the irq occurs
on another VCPU, it tries to take port_user_lock and can't because
the unbind ioctl is holding it." (from David). Hence we cannot
depend on the said spinlock to protect us. We could make it a system
wide IRQ disable spinlock but there is a better way.
We can piggyback on the fact that the existence of the spinlock is
to make get_port_user() checks be up-to-date. And we can alter those
checks to not depend on the spin lock (as it's protected by u->bind_mutex
in the ioctl) and can remove the unnecessary locking (this is
IOCTL_EVTCHN_UNBIND) path.
In the interrupt handler we cannot use the mutex, but we do not
need it.
"The unbind disables the irq before making the port user stale, so when
you clear it you are guaranteed that the interrupt handler that might
use that port cannot be running." (from David).
Hence this patch removes the spinlock usage on the teardown path
and piggybacks on disable_irq happening before we muck with the
get_port_user() data. This ensures that the interrupt handler will
never run on stale data.

Eric Sandeen has found a nasty livelock in sget() - take a mount(2) about
to fail. The superblock is on ->fs_supers, ->s_umount is held exclusive,
->s_active is 1. Along comes two more processes, trying to mount the same
thing; sget() in each is picking that superblock, bumping ->s_count and
trying to grab ->s_umount. ->s_active is 3 now. Original mount(2)
finally gets to deactivate_locked_super() on failure; ->s_active is 2,
superblock is still ->fs_supers because shutdown will *not* happen until
->s_active hits 0. ->s_umount is dropped and now we have two processes
chasing each other:
s_active = 2, A acquired ->s_umount, B blocked
A sees that the damn thing is stillborn, does deactivate_locked_super()
s_active = 1, A drops ->s_umount, B gets it
A restarts the search and finds the same superblock. And bumps it ->s_active.
s_active = 2, B holds ->s_umount, A blocked on trying to get it
... and we are in the earlier situation with A and B switched places.
The root cause, of course, is that ->s_active should not grow until we'd
got MS_BORN. Then failing ->mount() will have deactivate_locked_super()
shut the damn thing down. Fortunately, it's easy to do - the key point
is that grab_super() is called only for superblocks currently on ->fs_supers,
so it can bump ->s_count and grab ->s_umount first, then check MS_BORN and
bump ->s_active; we must never increment ->s_count for superblocks past
->kill_sb(), but grab_super() is never called for those.
The bug is pretty old; we would've caught it by now, if not for accidental
exclusion between sget() for block filesystems; the things like cgroup or
e.g. mtd-based filesystems don't have anything of that sort, so they get
bitten. The right way to deal with that is obviously to fix sget()...

Noticed that my old Radeon 7500 hung after printing
drm: GPU not posted. posting now...
when it wasn't selected as the primary card the BIOS. Some digging
revealed that it was hanging in combios_parse_mmio_table() while
parsing the ASIC INIT 3 table. Looking at the BIOS ROM for the card,
it becomes obvious that there is no ASIC INIT 3 table in the BIOS.
The code is just processing random garbage. No surprise it hangs!
Why do I say that there is no ASIC INIT 3 table is the BIOS? This
table is found through the MISC INFO table. The MISC INFO table can
be found at offset 0x5e in the COMBIOS header. But the header is
smaller than that. The COMBIOS header starts at offset 0x126. The
standard PCI Data Structure (the bit that starts with 'PCIR') lives at
offset 0x180. That means that the COMBIOS header can not be larger
than 0x5a bytes and therefore cannot contain a MISC INFO table.
I looked at a dozen or so BIOS images, some my own, some downloaded from:
It is fairly obvious that the size of the COMBIOS header can be found
at offset 0x6 of the header. Not sure if it is a 16-bit number or
just an 8-bit number, but that doesn't really matter since the tables
seems to be always smaller than 256 bytes.
So I think combios_get_table_offset() should check if the requested
table is present. This can be done by checking the offset against the
size of the header. See the diff below. The diff is against the WIP
OpenBSD codebase that roughly corresponds to Linux 3.8.13 at this
point. But I don't think this bit of the code changed much since
then.
For what it is worth:

Module CRCs are implemented as absolute symbols that get resolved by
a linker script. We build an intermediate .o that contains an
unresolved symbol for each CRC. genksysms parses this .o, calculates
the CRCs and writes a linker script that "resolves" the symbols to
the calculated CRC.
Unfortunately the ppc64 relocatable kernel sees these CRCs as symbols
that need relocating and relocates them at boot. Commit d4703aef
(module: handle ppc64 relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y)
added a hook to reverse the bogus relocations. Part of this patch
created a symbol at 0x0:
This reloc_start symbol is causing lots of confusion to perf. It
thinks reloc_start is a massive function that stretches from 0x0 to
0xc000000000000000 and we get various cryptic errors out of perf,
including:
problem incrementing symbol count, skipping event
This patch removes the reloc_start linker script label and instead
defines it as PHYSICAL_START. We also need to wrap it with
CONFIG_PPC64 because the ppc32 kernel can set a non zero
PHYSICAL_START at compile time and we wouldn't want to subtract
it from the CRCs in that case.

Comedi devices can do blocking read() or write() (or poll()) if an
asynchronous command has been set up, blocking for data (for read()) or
buffer space (for write()). Various events associated with the
asynchronous command will wake up the blocked reader or writer (or
poller). It is also possible to force the asynchronous command to
terminate by issuing a `COMEDI_CANCEL` ioctl. That shuts down the
asynchronous command, but does not currently wake up the blocked reader
or writer (or poller). If the blocked task could be woken up, it would
see that the command is no longer active and return. The caller of the
`COMEDI_CANCEL` ioctl could attempt to wake up the blocked task by
sending a signal, but that's a nasty workaround.
Change `do_cancel_ioctl()` to wake up the wait queue after it returns
from `do_cancel()`. `do_cancel()` can propagate an error return value
from the low-level comedi driver's cancel routine, but it always shuts
the command down regardless, so `do_cancel_ioctl()` can wake up he wait
queue regardless of the return value from `do_cancel()`.

When the host controller fails to respond to an Enable Slot command, and
the host fails to respond to the register write to abort the command
ring, the xHCI driver will assume the host is dead, and call
usb_hc_died().
The USB device's slot_id is still set to zero, and the pointer stored at
xhci->devs[0] will always be NULL. The call to xhci_check_args in
xhci_free_dev should have caught the NULL virt_dev pointer.
However, xhci_free_dev is designed to free the xhci_virt_device
structures, even if the host is dead, so that we don't leak kernel
memory. xhci_free_dev checks the return value from the generic
xhci_check_args function. If the return value is -ENODEV, it carries on
trying to free the virtual device.
The issue is that xhci_check_args looks at the host controller state
before it looks at the xhci_virt_device pointer. It will return -ENIVAL
because the host is dead, and xhci_free_dev will ignore the return
value, and happily dereference the NULL xhci_virt_device pointer.
The fix is to make sure that xhci_check_args checks the xhci_virt_device
pointer before it checks the host state.
See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1203453 for
further details. This patch doesn't solve the underlying issue, but
will ensure we don't see any more NULL pointer dereferences because of
the issue.

sd_prep_fn will allocate a larger CDB for the command via mempool_alloc
for devices using DIF type 2 protection. This CDB was being freed
in sd_done, which results in a kernel crash if the command is retried
due to a UNIT ATTENTION. This change moves the code to free the larger
CDB into sd_unprep_fn instead, which is invoked after the request is
complete.
It is no longer necessary to call scsi_print_command separately for
this case as the ->cmnd will no longer be NULL in the normal code path.
Also removed conditional test for DIF type 2 when freeing the larger
CDB because the protection_type could have been changed via sysfs while

"[SCSI] zfcp: Use status_read_buf_num provided by FCP channel"

if the fabric link is up.
Commit 8d88cf3f3b9af4713642caeb221b6d6a42019001
"[SCSI] zfcp: Update status read mempool"
introduced mempool resizings based on the above value.
On setting an FCP device online for the very first time since boot, a new
zeroed adapter object is allocated. If the link is down, the number of
status read requests remains zero. Since just the config data exchange is
incomplete, we proceed with adapter open recovery. However, we
unconditionally call mempool_resize with adapter->stat_read_buf_num == 0 in
this case.
This causes a kernel message "kernel BUG at mm/mempool.c:131!" in process
"zfcperp<FCP-device-bus-ID>" with last function mempool_resize in Krnl PSW
and zfcp_erp_thread in the Call Trace.
Don't evaluate channel values which are invalid on link down. The number of
status read requests is always valid, evaluated, and set to a positive
minimum greater than zero. The adapter open recovery can proceed and the
channel has status read buffers to inform us on a future link up event.
While we are not aware of any other code path that could result in mempool
resize attempts of size zero, we still also initialize the number of status
read buffers to be posted to a static minimum number on adapter object
allocation.

In nlmsvc_retry_blocked, the check that the list is non-empty and acquiring
the pointer of the first entry is unprotected by any lock. This allows a rare
race condition when there is only one entry on the list. A function such as
nlmsvc_grant_callback() can be called, which will temporarily remove the entry
from the list. Between the list_empty() and list_entry(),the list may become
empty, causing an invalid pointer to be used as an nlm_block, leading to a
possible crash.
This patch adds the nlm_block_lock around these calls to prevent concurrent
use of the nlm_blocked list.

Code in blkdev.c moves a device inode to default_backing_dev_info when
the last reference to the device is put and moves the device inode back
to its bdi when the first reference is acquired. This includes moving to
wb.b_dirty list if the device inode is dirty. The code however doesn't
setup timer to wake corresponding flusher thread and while wb.b_dirty
list is non-empty __mark_inode_dirty() will not set it up either. Thus
periodic writeback is effectively disabled until a sync(2) call which can
lead to unexpected data loss in case of crash or power failure.
Fix the problem by setting up a timer for periodic writeback in case we
add the first dirty inode to wb.b_dirty list in bdev_inode_switch_bdi().
