It turned out that REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC write requests were not marked as such
(the previous commit assumed them to be).

gigaset: fix Oops on module unload regression

The card state mutex was only initialized when a device was connected,
but used during unload unconditionally, leading to an Oops if a driver
was loaded and unloaded again without ever connecting a device.

Fix this by initializing the mutex as soon as the structure is allocated.
Also add a missing mutex unlock revealed in the same execution path.

This fixes a possible Oops in 2.6.25-rc that was introduced by commit
e468c04894f36045cf93d1384183a461014b6840 ("Gigaset: permit module

sched: balance RT task resched only on runqueue

Sripathi Kodi reported a crash in the -rt kernel:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435674

this is due to a place that can reschedule a task without holding
the tasks runqueue lock.  This was caused by the RT balancing code
that pulls RT tasks to the current run queue and will reschedule the
current task.

There's a slight chance that the pulling of the RT tasks will release
the current runqueue's lock and retake it (in the double_lock_balance).
During this time that the runqueue is released, the current task can
migrate to another runqueue.

In the prio_changed_rt code, after the pull, if the current task is of
lesser priority than one of the RT tasks pulled, resched_task is called
on the current task. If the current task had migrated in that small
window, resched_task will be called without holding the runqueue lock
for the runqueue that the task is on.

This race condition also exists in the mainline kernel and this patch
adds a check to make sure the task hasn't migrated before calling
resched_task.

Simon Horman [Tue, 26 Feb 2008 06:24:04 +0000 (15:24 +0900)]
[IA64] update efi region debugging to use MB, GB and TB as well as KB

When EFI_DEBUG is defined to a non-zero value in arch/ia64/kernel/efi.c,
the efi memory regions are displayed. This patch enhances the
display code in a few ways:

1. Use TB, GB and MB as well as KB as units.
   Although this introduces rounding errors (KB doesn't as
   size is always a multiple of 4Kb), it does make
   things a lot more readable.

   Also as the range is also shown, it is possible to note the exact size
   if it is important. In my experience, the size field is mostly useful
   for getting a general idea of the size of a region.

   On the rx2620 that I use, there actually is an 8TB region (though not
   backed by physical memory, and 8TB really is a lot more readable than
   8589934592KB.

2. pad the size field with leading spaces to further improve readability

   ...
   ... (   8MB)
   ... ( 928MB)
   ... (   3MB)
   ...

   vs

   ...
   ... (8MB)
   ... (928MB)
   ... (3MB)
   ...

3. Pad the attr field out to 64bits using leading zeros,
   to further improve readability.

   ...
   mem05: type= 2, attr=0x0000000000000008, range=[0x0000000004000000-0x000000000481f000) (   8MB)

Thus when crypto_xcbc_digest_update2() gets called,
nbytes may be less than sg[i].length.
Since nbytes is an unsigned number, it wraps
at the end of the loop allowing us to go back

Eric Paris [Wed, 5 Mar 2008 19:20:18 +0000 (14:20 -0500)]
NFS: use new LSM interfaces to explicitly set mount options

NFS and SELinux worked together previously because SELinux had NFS
specific knowledge built in.  This design was approved by both groups
back in 2004 but the recent NFS changes to use nfs_parsed_mount_data and
the usage of nfs_clone_mount_data showed this to be a poor fragile
solution.  This patch fixes the NFS functionality regression by making
use of the new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to explicitly set its own
mount options.

The explicit setting of mount options is done in the nfs get_sb
functions which are called before the generic vfs hooks try to set mount
options for filesystems which use text mount data.

This does not currently support NFSv4 as that functionality did not
exist in previous kernels and thus there is no regression.  I will be
adding the needed code, which I believe to be the exact same as the v3
code, in nfs4_get_sb for 2.6.26.

LSM/SELinux: Interfaces to allow FS to control mount options

Introduce new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to deal with their own mount

LSM that an FS can use to get a security data blob and a new security
data blob.  This is particularly useful for an FS which uses binary
mount data, like NFS, which does not pass strings into the vfs to be
handled by the loaded LSM.  Also fix a BUG() in both SELinux and SMACK
when dealing with binary mount data.  If the binary mount data is less
than one page the copy_page() in security_sb_copy_data() can cause an

   This patch fixes a DHCP issue of the kernel: some DHCP servers
   (i.e.  in the Linksys WRT54Gv5) are very strict about the contents

   Table 5 in RFC2131 page 36 requests the fields 'ciaddr' and

   kernel's DHCP discovery packets with these two fields set to
   '255.255.255.255' (in contrast to popular DHCP clients, such as

A hugetlb reservation may be inadequately backed in the event of racing

following series of events in processes A and B:

 A) Allocates some surplus pages to satisfy a reservation
 B) Frees some huge pages
 A) A notices the extra free pages and drops hugetlb_lock to free some of

 B) Allocates some huge pages
 A) Reacquires hugetlb_lock and returns from gather_surplus_huge_pages()

Avoid this by commiting the reservation after pages have been allocated but
before dropping the lock to free excess pages.  For parity, release the
reservation in return_unused_surplus_pages().

This patch also corrects the cpuset_mems_nr() error path in

16 years agomd: the md RAID10 resync thread could cause a md RAID10 array deadlock
K.Tanaka [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:29:37 +0000 (14:29 -0800)]
md: the md RAID10 resync thread could cause a md RAID10 array deadlock

This message describes another issue about md RAID10 found by testing the
2.6.24 md RAID10 using new scsi fault injection framework.

Abstract:

When a scsi error results in disabling a disk during RAID10 recovery, the
resync threads of md RAID10 could stall.

This case, the raid array has already been broken and it may not matter.  But
I think stall is not preferable.  If it occurs, even shutdown or reboot will
fail because of resource busy.

The deadlock mechanism:

The r10bio_s structure has a "remaining" member to keep track of BIOs yet to
be handled when recovering.  The "remaining" counter is incremented when
building a BIO in sync_request() and is decremented when finish a BIO in
end_sync_write().

If building a BIO fails for some reasons in sync_request(), the "remaining"
should be decremented if it has already been incremented.  I found a case
where this decrement is forgotten.  This causes a md_do_sync() deadlock
because md_do_sync() waits for md_done_sync() called by end_sync_write(), but
end_sync_write() never calls md_done_sync() because of the "remaining" counter
mismatch.

For example, this problem would be reproduced in the following case:

Personalities : [raid10]
md0 : active raid10 sdf1[4] sde1[5](F) sdd1[2] sdc1[1] sdb1[6](F)
      3919616 blocks 64K chunks 2 near-copies [4/2] [_UU_]
      [>....................]  recovery =  2.2% (45376/1959808) finish=0.7min speed=45376K/sec

This case, sdf1 is recovering, sdb1 and sde1 are disabled.
An additional error with detaching sdd will cause a deadlock.

md0 : active raid10 sdf1[4] sde1[5](F) sdd1[6](F) sdc1[1] sdb1[7](F)
      3919616 blocks 64K chunks 2 near-copies [4/1] [_U__]
      [=>...................]  recovery =  5.0% (99520/1959808) finish=5.9min speed=5237K/sec

28830 pts/1    R+     0:00 ps ax

The resync thread keeps working, but actually it is deadlocked.

Patch:
By this patch, the remaining counter will be decremented if needed.

16 years agomd: fix possible raid1/raid10 deadlock on read error during resync

md: fix possible raid1/raid10 deadlock on read error during resync

Thanks to K.Tanaka and the scsi fault injection framework, here is a fix for
another possible deadlock in raid1/raid10 error handing.

If a read request returns an error while a resync is happening and a resync
request is pending, the attempt to fix the error will block until the resync
progresses, and the resync will block until the read request completes.  Thus
a deadlock.

This patch fixes the problem.
